BTOXISO or COLOMBIA, S. C.—
WHATGKJT. SnKRMIN SAVS.
A Washington dispatch to tie
Louisville Courier-Journal contains
the following rather sensational state
ment : "Gen. Sherman was examin
ed befbre the American and British
Commission to-day in regard to the
burning of Columbia. He denied
that he had issued orders to burn Co
lumbia, but admitted that the armv
was greatly exasperated hgainst South
Carolina, and said that this exaspera
tion was greatly increased by Gn.
Hampton's rear guard firing into his
ramp a night or two be/ore entering
Columbia, which exasperation he and
his officers participated in. and this
was known to the men. A corres
pondence was then shown to Gen.
Sherman, purporting to haTe taken
place between him and Gen. Hall£
while on his march to Columbia.
The communication from Hallcck de-
•irvd him to destroy Charleston and
sow it with salt, so that there might
no more nulifiers or secessionists grow
up there. To this Sherman in reply
wrote that Charlestown and Columbia
would soon be in his bands, and Hal
leck would have no cause to complain
of his treatment of them ; that he had
the Fifteenth Corps with him, and
that corns did their work well; and
and furuter, that he (Sherman)would
not spare the buildings in Columbia,
as he did at Milledgeville. Sherman
admitted on his examination that this
correspondence was authentic. Gen.
Sherman stated that he occupied Co
lumbia with the Fifteenth Corns. In
reply to the question whether ne kept
the men in the works after taking pas
session of the city, he said no; he
would not have done so to hare pre
vented the barning of every town in
the State of South Carolina. These
responses were drawn out by the rep
resentations of the British claimants,
who allege that their property at Co
lombia was destroyed wantonly and in
violation of the usages of war.''
Here we see the triumphs of war,
planned by hatred, executed by vio
lence, and consummated by devastation
the fagot and the sword. Well may
the citizens of Columbia say of Gen.
Sherman, in the language of the in
spired writer, that "before him the
land is as the garden of Eden, behind
him as the desolate wilderness." Or,
with Jfilton,
"Who leave behind
Nothing hut ruin, whereso'er they rove,
And all the hushing works of peace destroy,
Then swell in pride, and must bo titled
gods."
litre we find Gens. Halleck and
Sherman in Sooth Carolina, delighted
with the military power in the their
handa. The implicit aubmiasion of
an army, which the military system fit
vora, that men insubaltern stationaare
to act as they are bidden, and never to
deliberate on the propriety ot the com
mand, is perfectly congenial with the
apirit of malignity, tyrany and deapot
iam. Look again at thia cruel, unjuati
fiable, and cowardly act ; Colombia
waa in the poeeeeaion of Sherman and
hie army—"Halleck deaired him
(Sherman) to destroy Charleston and
sow it with salt, so that no more noli
hers and secessionists grew up there.''
No exception or reservation hera
for the property of old or young
rich or poor—widow or orphan—inno
cent or guilty—all were to receive
the same treatment To this Sher
man in reply wrote "that Charleston
and Columbia would soon be iu his
hands, and Halleck would have no
cause to complain of his treatment of
them, that he had the 15th corps with
him, and thai corps did their work well,
and that be would not spare the build
ings tn Columbia as he did at Milledge
ville," and that be wonld not have
prevented the soldiers burning every
town in South Carolina. How heroic
—how humane—how noble in Gener
al Sherman ! and what barbarians and
cowards must Lee's army under Early
and Ewell have been that they did
not burn Sbippenaburg, Carlisle, Me
chanicsbnrg, and Vork, when these
towns were in their possession and
"sow them with salt," so that no more
whclitioniats and underground con
o jctors "would grow there." Emm it
come to this, that the common soldier,
as soon as be is marshalled in the
ranks to serve and protect bis coun
try, must be changed ioto a demon,
and murder, rob, burn, destroy and
plunder at the bid or wink of a titled
commander, no way scrupulous of his
course, for might is bis right, and ar
tilery and the fagot his argument,
with the make-weight of courage
thrown into the scale, nay, boasting
that "the 15th oorpe did their work
well," —was this the conduct of Gen.
Jackson in his campaigns, of Gener
al Scott in Jfexico, and is this to be
the status and character of the Amer
ican soldier, that he must forget his
manhood at the bid of his commander,
commit crimes against the law of God
and man ? Forbid it Justice! for
where all is mercenary, nothing can
be magnanimous, and it is impossible
to have the slightest respect for an
animated mass of machinery, that
moves alike at the voice of .a drum or
a despot—a trumpet or tyrant —a fife!

Another virtuous radical senator lias been
•xposed - this time it is senator l'- iueroj,
who all along stood high In tho radical
niche of morality. Mr. Poroerov paid a
senator ia the Kansas legislature, $7,000
la vote for his re-election ; the senator's
name is Col. York. Col York t>ok tho
money, and when the vote was had, and
his name was called, he stopped up to tho
speaker's desk, and laid down $7,000, say
ing "there 1 got that .from Mr. Potneroy
that I should vote for him. Such an ex
position, right on the spot, was never w it
noased before in any legislature in thi>
country. The only affair thai approat hew
it, is the negotiation between Simon Cam
eron and reptesentative Beyer, from
OlcarSeld. when Cameron needed only
one rote, and agreed to give Beyer $28,000
for his vote. Every reader *of the Karon-
Tin remembers how Boyer exposed it at
the time. He did not vote for Cameron

Constitutional Gmrmtion.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 28. In the Con
stitutional Convention, to-day, on thesub
ject of Credit Mobilier, Mr. Boyd of Mont
gomery raid : "I believe that if reforma
tion is to be begun anywhere by this Con
vention. it ahould be in the Legislature.
Why ? Do gentlemen know that it was in
the Legislature of Pennsylvania that for
the paltry sum of $50,000 was chartered
the Credit Mobilier, a corporation which
was refused incorporation by the Legisla
ture of New fork for less than $300.0(10,
and by the New Jersey Legislature for
less than sl6o,Oft) ? But when they come
over into Pennsylvania, they find the Leg
islature reedy for the insignificant sum of
$50,000 to set it on foot. Then it was
transported to Maine and ran its slimy
course throughout the entire L'nion. And.
Sir! it has corrupted men in the highest
walks of life, as well as those in the low
est, until we are told by investigations now
going on that this country has been rob
bed ef over $ 100,000,000. '
Mr. Bmith ef Lancaster—The gentleman
from Norristown has given you an idea of
the origin of the Credit Mobilier, and has
implied that our Legislature could be
bought much cheaper than those of New
fork and New Jersey. 1 have a correct
version of the history of that corporation,
which I will briefly give you. A distin
guished Democrat of this Commonwealth,
who had been clerk of both Houses, met
me on one occasion and told me th at a
gentleman who was usually full of specu
lative theories came up to the Legisla
ture one aestien.
The project that he had in hand at that
time waa the organization in this country
of a corporation similar to the Credit Mo
bilier established .in France. He framed
a bill, and had it passed by the Pennsyl
vania Legislature before the Pacific Kail
road was barely conceived. The corpora
tion was organized in this city, and each
ot the directors then and there elected
were voted 80 shares of paid-up stock,
"they being on the ground floor," at Sl.-
080 a share. Afterward, at another moet
'BlT. the name of the company was chang
ed to the Pennsylvania Fiscal Agency, but
nothing waa ever done by tho organiza
tion. The charter stock-book and the pa
pers were stolen and bodily carried to New
York, where tho company known as the
Credit Mobilier was organized.
The changed name was stricken out and
they returned to the original title. The
father ot the bill said that he would have
been entitled to receive at ono time, if he
had held on to his paid up stock—lor when
tha question of paid up stock came up in
New York they sent a party to Philadel
phia to buy it all up— he would havo re
ceived, according to his calculation, sl,-
100.000, whereas the 80 shares brought him
when he told it $270.
SENATOR POMEROY'S DOWN
FALL.
His Corruption Overwhelmingly Ex-
Dosed— He Pays $7,000 for one
Vote—John J. Ingalls Almost
Unanimously Elected.
TOPKKA, Jan. 29—Light at laat dawned
in Kansas 1 Senator Pomeroy wan over*
whelmingly defeated, to-day, in the elec
tion Senator, John J. Ingalls of Atchison
being elected almost unanimously. As the
vote was being taken in joint convention,
Col. York, member of the Senate from
Montgomery County, when his name was
called, passed up to the presiding officer
$7,000 which Mr. Pomeroy had given him
for his vote. He then detailed the circum
stances of the transaction in a speech of an
hour's length. The effect was overwhel
ming. A resolution was passed by the Leg
islature thanking Col. York for his course,
and Ingalls was immediately elected. For
two weeks Pomeroy has kept a lobby here
of all his "strikers" at an expense of not
less than $1,600 per day, and has spent
probably SIOO,OCO in the campaign. Mr.
Pomeroy has been arrested under our
State law. Twelve years ago to-day Kan
sas was admitted Into the Union. To-day
she sends greeting to the nation over tho
downfall of corruption as embodied in 8.

Wamhihutox, Jan. 28.—The ruin
of Yice-Preaident Colfax it only a lit (
tic lean complete than that of Senator 1

President stated on oath to Judge Po- j
land'* t'onimiltco that he had not re- i

*eeti by him ; that he was poaitive of 11
this because he could not |tuswibly i
! have received that amount of mouey i
! from any source without recollecting ,
' it. To day, tho books of the First <
National llauk of Washington were ]
j produce*.!, and Mr. Colfaxe'a account i
was examined. There appeared a j
credit of $1,968,63, dated June 22, (
1868, two days after the date of Ames's
check to "8. C." on the Sergeant at
Atuia, and one day after that check i
was paid. This furnished only pre
sumptive proof of the deposit of the
81,2(H), but all doubt was removed
when the cashier produced a deposit ,
ticket, beariug Mr. Colfax's signature,
in which the $1,968 6d was itemixed,
81,200 being cash, and the remaiuder
checks or drafts. The circumstantial ,
'evidence iu Mr Colfax's case is there- ,
fore complete. Mr. Ames swears that
lie drew a check on the Sergeant-at
Arms iu favor of "S. 0." for $1,200,
lon Juue 20, 1868, and gave it to Mr.
Colfax, in payment of the Credit Mo
bilier dividend. The Sergeaut-at!
Arms produced the check dated Junei
20, and shows that it was cashed on the;
21st, and charged to Ames's account !
tin the 22nd Mr. Col tax deposits ex- 1
actlv $1,200 iu cash in the bank.
Now, unless he can prove that he re
ceived the $1,200 Irom some other
source, his case is. hopeless, and he
cauuot escape a verdict of guilts ofj
false swearing.
At tae very time that the cashier of
the First Natioual Bank was exhibit
ing tell-tale accouuu in the Poland
committer room, a strange scene was
being enacted in the Senate.
Vice-President, after the prayer,"call
ed the Senate to order, presented one
or two communications from the other
House and from the Executive De
partments, and then, iu the midst of
a naiuful stillness, read from a request
that a committee of his political oppo-'
ueuts be appointed to investigate the 1
; damaging accusations that had
been made against him, and called
Mr. Anthony to the chair. No more
impressive event has occurred in the
Senate for many a day than wbeu the
Vico-Presideut left the Chamber, and
Mr. Pratt, apparently very much af
fected, moved the appointment ofa|
Committee of Five. Mr. Tburman.
whose head is always clear on points
of constitutional law, though he often
differs with the majority, was at once
on his feet, urging objections. In a
five minutes' speech he showed that
the Senate had no right to appoint a
committee of investigation, since, if
anything derogatory to the character
of the Vice-President was discovered,
tha body could neither expel nor cen
sure him. The only way of reaching!
the case was by impeachment, ana
that must be beguu by the House of
its own accord, without any influence
from the Senate. If the Senate should
appoint a committee and make an in
vestigation itself, it would disqualify
its members to sit as impartial judges.
Mr. Tburman's argument was eo con
vincing that when a vira voce vote was
taken at its close, only two or
three Senators voted for the resolution. J
This action leaves the matter, so far
as the Senate is concerned, just where
it was before, and the only course
left for the Vice-President, unless he
can break through the net of circum
stantial evidence that is gradually!
drawing closer and closer about him,
is to request some friend in the House
'to present articles of impeachment,
saying that he does it at Mr. Colfax's
request, in order that he may have a
fair trial before his peers in the Sen
ate.
TIIE EVIDENCE OF THE BANK ACCOUNT
[General Press Dispatch.]
During the session of the Poland
Committee, to-day, Mr. H. C. Swain, !
cashier of the First National Bank of
this District, was sworn, and, in ans
wer to a question of Judge Poland,
stated he had brought the books of
the bonk with him containing the ac
count of Schuyler Colfax, in answer
to the summons. Upon turning to the
account of 1/r. Colfax, Judge Poland
put the following questions :
Q. —State whether it appears upon
your books that Mr. Colfax made a
deposit on the 22d of June, 1868 ! A.
Yes, Sir; $1,968 63.
Q. Well, what other dejiosits were
made in June or July ? A. June 22,
$1,968 63; July 7, $400; July 8,
$150; July 13, $1,643 87.
Q. Would the entry on tbia ledger
indicate whether the depoeits were in
cash or check ? A. No, Sir.
Judge Poland then requested the
witness to bring up the blotter or book
upon which the original entry of these
deposits was made.
WitnessYeplied that be would do so,
and then produced the following cer
tificate of deposit upon being request
ed to do so. Deposited with the First
National Bank by Schuyler Colfax,
Juno 22, 1868. United States and
notes, $1,200; checks as folfbws: $250
$lB 63, and $500; total, 51,965 63.
Q. Will you look and see the last
deposit made by Mr. Colfax prior .to
June 22 ? A. June 1.
In reply to a question of Mr. Ames,
the witness replied that of course he
could not tell where the money came
from.
The Cotton Tax Refunding bill, a
measure which will absorb about six
ty-eight million of dollars, came with
in fifteen votes of passing the house of

The Know-Storm In MliiiuoUi
Fearful Chapter of Suffering.
The following arc only n few of the
many fearful iuoidenU connected with
the late snowstorm in Miuuseota ; wo
could fill on entire page of the He

Death fouud out iu victims not
alone on the highway, hut in their
| home. In i'anistco, Dodge county, a
|whole family of five persona perished
in their houae. lu Madelia a child
aud her aunt, Mra. Oil, took refuge in
a barn and lived theie two daya by
chewiug hay, auccumbiug at laat to
hunger and oold.
At Fort Kidgelev three brother took
refuge in a corn-crib, where they froae
to death. At Mouud City a sexton
who had goue to dig a grave found hia
own grave in a drift ere be had reach
oil the churchyard. At KUiottCreek,
Mr. Lee and hia sou, a boy of thirteen,
weut for a load of wood and were
found frosrii stiff; the boy with hit
armi folded over hia cheat, to keep
with hia torn and buttouleaa coal the
vital warmth at hia heart. Their lit
tle dog remained by the lifeless bodies
with dumb aflectiou, clearing away the
fallen snow that essayed to hide them
from hia faithful view. The tuau It it
a widow and four youug children dea
titute. Near Correctionville, two men
Messrs. Sparks and Sanders, went for
wood. They were within a mile aud
a half of home wbeu the storm came
ou, and then they threw off their load.
Hut a few roda beyond thev lost the
road at a curve and so wamlered away
from the homes they were aeekiug.
That uight thev camped three miles
from home under their sleigh. All
| day Wedueeday and Thursday they
I w-audered through the storm, aud on
Thursday night they lay down and
died of exhaustion. For three days
they were wandering from a mile to
i seven miles from home.
Singularly few were the iuslaucs in '
which the people had the presence of '
[ mind to turn their tortures into their 1
elements of escape. A Mr. Charles 1
Dealing, a mail carrier near Blue
f Earth, had his buggy upset by a furi- '
ous gust ofwiud ; be placed a buffalo 1
' robe over the wheel aud remained in
> tbe shelter of this frail fence till Fri
-1 day when the storm cleared and he
- found himself lees than fifty yards from
i a house. One section man at St. 1
' James dug into the lee side of a gigan
- tic drift and made himself a spacious
f chamber In which he lived, sleeping
I most of the time, till Thursday mora-,
- ing, when he was discovered and a.k
!ed if breakfast wasn't yet ready. Mr.
I L. F.jHobison, Treasurer of Redwood
' county, undertook to walk some
- twelve miles to Charleston, where he
> was to receive some taxes. As *M)e
) thermometer was 40 degrees above ze-
I ro he left off all unnecessary wraps.
- At two came the terrible storm. It
) found him a mile from a house. With
great presence of mind he dug a treuch
> in the snow, which was only twenty;
) ! inches deep, crept into it under the
' 'frail roof of the crust, and remained
L there from two p. m. on Tuesday till
t seven a. m. on Friday—sixty-five
i| hours—hardly daring to move lest his
f dainty bouse should fall about
' bis ears. He passed sixty-nine hours
• without food, save some roots of grass
• that be dug up with his knife and)
| some pieces which he cut from his
I boots. On Friday he crawled out aud
f reached a house safely. Mr. Payne,
f of Canistco, Dodge county, had' as
I rude ao experience. When the storm
- came on on Tuesday he was half a
' mile from a bouse, and made for it,
trusting that by keeping tbe wind at
his back be would reach it. But the
i changed in a moment to northwest
from southwest, and hs lost his waj.
'Turning loose his horses, he crept un
: der his sleigh and spent the night there
singing ami praying to keep himself
awake and of good cheer. About ten
a. m. on Wednesday he found that hs
was near a fence and followed it to a
stable, where he remained five hours, 1
thinking the owuer would soon come
to feed his cattle. Growing disheart
ened he *gaiu set out to find the bouse, J
but lost his way, and ere he could
again return the farmers came, fed 1
their cattle, and locked him out. He !
slept uuder a shed, aod next morning
found the house only forty yards 1
away. Mr. Jenkins, of tbe Cleveland '
(O.) Bridge Company, was superin- '
tending the building of au iron bridge '
at Lyon, and set out OD Tuesday 1
morning in a stage, with a driver !
named Baker, for hioux Falls. Iu the
storm the horses became imbedded it
! a drift ; they turned out and blanket
ed them, then got into the stage and
remained there. On Wednesday
morning the horses were found dead
All day and night of Wednesday the
storm raged with uuabated fury. Ou
Thursday morning Jenkins went mad.
On Friday morning he died, and an
hour afterwards Baker was rescued
frozen so awfully that he will lose both
legs.
All over the State cattle and horses
perished in the intensj cold. Hun
dreds of hogs are reported killed. In
Uicbland township a Mr. Hammond
found over 200 quails frozen to death
in one strip of prairie, their feathgrs
full of ice and sleet.
I shall conclude this disjointed let
ter with some experiences of railroad
travel during the great storm. The
express train on the Milwaukee and
St. Paul road waa snowed in at five
o'clock on Tuesday between Itidgeway
and Conover, a little west of McGreg
or and Prairie de Chine. There were
some thirty passengers, including eight
women and one baby. As soon as the
train stopped all the passengers were
gathered in the centre car, and the
cushions were piled agaiust the win
dows to keep out the mow, which was
so fine that it entered through the im
perceptible interstices in such quanti
ties that it was shovelled up and car
riod out in mail-bags. The stoves
were kept red-hot. In the post-office
car the train hands, numbering fifteen
were barricaded. Thus all night
Tuesday was passed, the chief sensa
i tion being the discovery of a package
of tea, which waa prepared for the
nursing mother and saved her habv's
life. On Wednesday six men —W.
Klemm.John Martin, Andrew Lar
sen, Ole Lie, B. W. Darn, and John
Ringstad, residents of Ridgeway—
loaded themselves with bread, crack
ers, cheese, sardines, and such porta
ble edibles as they could carry, and
set out for the train. They made
the three miles in four hours, follow
ing the telegraph poles, and were re
ceived with cheers and tears of jov by
the leagured passengers, who had been
without food for thirty hours. Gen
eral John Lawler, a large stockholder
of the road, who was on board, offered
the men the cost of their cargo and 125
each, and Superintendent Pryor added
a perpetual free pass over the line, but
John Martin who had organized the
party, declined to accept a cent for
what a common Lumanityhad impell
ed them to do. At the same time Mr.
S. Le La Ronde, of Calmar, a clerk,
packed a satchel of provisions, and set
out alone to the rescue of the train,
eight miles away. And he had to go
in the teeth of the wind, whilo Mar
tin's party had Hat their back. He
wiujoiuedby J. Bradley, trackmas
tor; Hubert Jauiieaon and James

An Extraordinary Young Woman.
We have it upon tbe authority of
The Columbus (0.) Journal that re
cently there was consigned to the
rouuly jail there a prisoner plenteous-
Iv provided with names and surnames,
ft was the humor of this person some
times to be called J. F. Goidsborough,
occasionally Charles Smith, aud again
Mr Frank Beideu. The prisoner waa
committed for laroeny, as we shall
presently see, aud when received by
the jailor wore pantaloons with the
air of one accustomed to those gar
ments. It turned out, however, that
J. F. Charles Frank was of the softer
sort of sex ; that her true baptismal
name i alas ! that w* should be com
peted to say so) was Mary, aud that
she basrun such a career, during her
twenty five years of life, as to suggest
entirely new views of female capacity,
thau which no more interesting topic
can at present be diacusssd. Mary, at
the age of twenty-three, being deter
mined to live by her wita, bad tbe wit,
in the very beginning, to diacard ber
long clothes and to employ a talor.
Making progreaa in her masculine ca
reer, she became barkeeper in a sa
soon, and dispensed drinks of various
sorts to the thirsty of Columbus, who
Iwallowed thsir beverages in stolid ig
norance of the angel who ministers!
unto them. Pursuing the manly
scheme of life which she had marked
out for herself, she stole 1400 of tbe
spirit-seller's money and (still panta
looned) launched upou a wider and
more dangerous sea of enterprise.
In Cincinnati, Mons. Mary was wai
ter in a saloon, where she might have
continued to dispense chops and to
change plates if she had not thought
it pertinent to the manly pert which
she bad assumed to worship at the
shrine of Bacchus. Her libstions be
ing too frequent and possibly too
strong, she waa deposed from the po
sition of waiter, when, going to Cleve
land, she became still more manly,
since there she assumed the arduous
role of lover, and laid siage to tbe af
fections of Miss Kitty O'Neal, to
whom she pledged undying affection.
It was a matter of course that Kitty
should be left to die of a broken heart
or to live aa she could with a damaged
one ; for the eccentric Mart essayed
other achievements of genius. Gen
erally she was a thief, t>ut now and
then she deviated (still in pantaloons)
into honest ways. Upon toe Mahon
ing Canal she waa employed to coerce
the fiery chargers. Upon some steam
boat she obtained tbe effice of clerk,
in which she gave great salisfisction,
until tbe rosy god once more misled
her. All ibis time, she was just as
mauly as sbe could possibly be. She
smoked the fragrant weed. With a
boldness which excites our astonish
ment, she also masticated the same.
No young gentleman could take per
pendicular drinks at the bar with
greater frequency and elegance- So
went on our epicene, imbibing, smok
ing, chewing, swearing and making
love with just as much audacious im
pudence as if her name had proper
ly been John, Sam or Pete instead of
Mary.
But we are obliged to record that
, litis talented damsel tempted fate once
too often, and that is why she is now
m Columbn* Jail. The kind conduc
tor of a railway train from Zanesyille
to Columbus, supposing ber to be an
honest gentleman, allowed her to
sleep in a caboose car, and she requit
ed this touching benevolence by steal
ing his gold chroranometer—an im
plement which no conductor can well
spare. For tbis the young woman
will for some time to come remain
cloistered up ; but when again at large,
a nobler career is yet before her, for
she may take to lecturing. Bhe has at
any rate done something to vindicate
the equality of the sexes. If her gar
ments have been manly, so have been
the achievements of tbis Ohio Moll
Flanders, and she has at least demon
strated that in all tbia world there is
nothing sharper than a sharp-witted
woman—until she gets into jail.
THK COKTITEXTAL R. K. Sravxr.—For
a few woeks recently Engineers havo boon
in Clinton surveying a route for a railroad
and our informant was told by tho princi
pal of them that they would be followed
in the Spring.by other Engineers who would
permanently slake out the road. Further in
quiry into the matter brought us into con
tact with an old surveyor of this section,
wlpiwas last year employed to prospect the
land along the contemplated reute, and
the |following is the information elicited
from him : The route contemplated is a
grand through route, with its eastern ter
minus at Flixaboth City, New Jersey, and
its western at Council Bluffs, lowa. Strik
ing across New Jersey, on the Central, it
will tap the Susquehanna noar Selin't
Grove; thence up White Deer Creek and
down Fishing Creek through Sugar Val
ley down to Washington Furnace Gap;
through the mountain at this point into
Nittany Valley, and down this valley
around by Mill Hall into Bald Eagle Val
ley' thence up Beech Creek (or up the Tan
gascootac) into the coal fields of Clinton
and Centre. Through these into Clear
field at a point in Karthaua township ;
thence up Mosquito Creek to the end of
Boone Mountain, on the hoad of Bennett's
Branch on the Sinnemahonlng; thence
across a little ef the lower part of Elk, the
upper part of Jefferson, and the lower part
of Forrest county to Tionesta, there tap
ping the Oil Crock and Allegheny River
R. R. Thence to sheot across Ohio, ladi
anna, Illinois and lowa, passing through
Dos Moines and stopping at Council Bluffs,
within easy reach of the Union Pacific at
Omaha. sucb is the oqtlinu furnifhed us
of the route, a part of which the Engineers
have been recently engaged on in Clinton.
It is called the Continental Railroad, and
is reported to have considerable English
capital associated with it. The route pro
poked will got tfruch Lock Hawvn Mill
Hall looming to be the nearest point to the
city that It will touch.*- IVMOEMF.

A Letter
written to blm by Patterson Hsreceived
several others, which be destroyed. This
letter was written since this investigation
commenced. He wanted me to make my
teetimony conform to it I had lota of
conversation with Patterson.
The letter waa read as follows:
WASIIIXOTOX, January 4, 1873.
Hon. Dales Annas.
Mr DBAS Slß:— Ths facts in regard to
Credit Mobiier, so Car as I had any con
nection with R, were as fallows;
You cams te n> one day knowing that a
want of meant wat a chronic evil with me
and taid, Patterson, if you would like I
can let you here thirty shares of stock in
Credit Mobilier, which 1 think will be e
profitable investment, end will be e good
thing for you. My reply, in substance,
was that if you had anything, which 1
could properly inveet end out of which
I Could Make Some Money,
I weuld be glad to take it, but that 1 had
not the money at that time and must defer
it until 1 could get it. Your reply was
that you presumed I could have it later,
when it might be coavenicnt. You re
gerded it as a perfectly legitimate transac
tion at the time. You did not, could not,
anticipate that you should ever ask furth
er legislation frem Coogress in respect
to the road. You never did, except when
it was forced upon you by the Secretary.
After this conversation with me you
may have bad the impreesion that I should
take the stocks seme time, but for sora*
reason or other, perhaps for want of funds,
1 never took any of the stock. If I never
had any stock in the company I could not,
as I did not, havo its dividends. If press
ed to know if I purchased at aay time any
bonds or stock of the road, you can say I
did at the time they attempted to embar
rass you when the value of the stock was
depressed, and I paid you the full market
value for it. I paid you seven thousand!
dollors in money for the stock and bonds.
The stock I put into the hands of Morton i
immediately, to sell as soon as it should goi
up reaonably in the market, which he did.!
I sew him on my way through. lie said j
he had never held any stock in the Credit
Mobilier for any one, but be did not wish
to have his name broght into theexamina
etion it it could be avoided. lam going to
Ohio. I will see you en my return; don't
fail to correct your original statement be
fore the committee. It must pot\be re
ported salt now stands. \. / !
Very truly, Ac.,
J. W. PATTKRSO.V
(Juestioa by Judge Merrick—Have you
refreshed your memory as to tho other
member* of Congress whom you let have
stock.
Only Logan.
Answer—Ye*. Sir, there are none addi
tional except Logan. The reason 1 did
not mention him before was that he is not
a member of the House now.
By Mr. McCrary—Did Logan give you
any reason for returning the money.
Answer I don't think he did.
Amee—l want to say further to the Com
mittee that I have been asked why 1 held
this stock, aud why I did not give it to the
members themselves. The reason is that
the Credit Mobilier stock itself was not en
titled to dividends.
Ames then said the stock was held by
him in trust, be having signed the contract
making hi ui ft If pvffonaUj responsible,
and he was the only on# who qopld drai(
dividends.
Judge Poland said he had asked Mr.
titovenion, who introduced a revolution iol
th Bdhte a 1W 4*y* go m to certain nth- 1
•r reads t* be investigated, and had been |
informed that be should (|uwtlss Antes as
ba knew something about thoas.
Ames-A re you geiag to investigate
me again?
Judge Poland made a remark abot the
oonscienre of certain gentlemen who bad
insetted, and Ames replied, laughingly:
"Conscience, I am getting rather
A Ix>w Opinion of Conscience
tinea 1 have been here." (Laughter.)
j A met was then questioned at to tbe
Dubuque and Hioux City Koad, named in
Mr. Stevenson't resolution, but testified
that be knew nothing of any member of
Cengrett having received stock in the
rood; no member got stock without pay-i
ing for it; there's nothing immoral or cor
rupt about the management of tbe mad;,
it bad no connection with tbe I'ni m Pa*
cilc.
John B Alley was recalled and correb
orated tbe tertimoney ef Ann in refer
ence to tbe Dubuque and Hioux City lload.
At noon tbe committee adjurned until
10 o'clock on Tuesday, Judge Poland an
nounced that be expected to close tbe in
