Napoleon's “ Wandering Heir.”
For years it has been universally be-r
Moved that the direct lino of the “Little
Corporal” became extinct in the person
ol the unfortunate prince, and, although
various rumors relative to a secret mar
riage were prevalent at the time of hia
decease, they were generally regarded as
the oreationß of an idle brain. Events
which have subsequently transpired give
these reports a semblance of truth, and,
to render them still more plausible, it is
a wellrknown fact Chat the late Emperor
of the French spared neither expense nor
labor in forming a complete collection oi
the correspondence and private papers of.
“le fils de I’bomme.”
It appears, however, that these wri-
tings were not tho only links which uni
fed the present with the past; for, in the
summer of 1871, an individual, who, bore
an extremely striking likeness to the
Bonaparte family, made his appearance
at lachl, and was lined by the district
court and , expelled from the Austrian
dominions for having made an objection
able entry in his “wander-book”—» sort,
of journeyman's passport. He was a
tailor by trade, and, for several years
previous to this oecurrence, bad been
living at Wurzen, iu the kingdom of
Saxony, and also at Stuttgardt,■ under
the name of Carl Gustave Ludwig, and
in both of these places he had distin
guished himself by his diligence, skill,
and modesty. His intimate acquain
tiyices affirmed that, in spite of his
humble occupation, he had always as
serted his claim to the name and title
of Prince Joseph Eugene Napoleon Bo
naparte, and, according to his' own ac
count, it would seem ns if he was an is
sue,of a secret marriage of the Duke of
Reichstadt with a Hungarian countess.
He stated that, when quite young, his
mother was induced by Prince Melter
uicli to apprentice him to a tailor in
Wurzen named Ludwig, ns a means of
getting rid of him, and in order, to fa
cililato her second marriage in Saxony.
As a further proof of his origin, he de
clared that there was an author then
living at Leipsic, hut formerly a Hun
garian officer, who had been a witness
to the marriage, and who would, if it
ever became necessary for him to make
known his rank and title, supply him
with the requisite documents in order
to compel the countess to recognize his
birth and parentage. After leaving
Stuttgardt, he traveled’through Ger
many, Switzerland, and a part of Aus
tria, earning his livelihood as a tailor,
and maintaining his claim to a princely
rank, but, never attempting to obtain
money or credit by it. On returning to
Stuttgardt, in November of the same
year, he found that his conviction and
punishment had been mentioned in the
papers of that place, and ho accordingly
published an explanation in tho Burger
Zeiiang, in which he affirmed that he
was not punished for claiming his
name and title, his. right to which tho
court atlschi had in no .wise disputed,
but merely for writing it of his own ac
cord in his passport before he had suc
ceeded in establishing his Identity be
fore a court of law. Tlio reputed prince
is still living, and the Cross,— one of
the leading newspapers of Germany,—
in an article written at the time, states
that not only does ho bear a good char
acter for his steadiness and general good
conduct, but ho also produces a very
favorable impression by his manners.a-
From “Napoleon llf' by Lanydon
Greenwood, in Scribner's for March.
A good story ia told of tlio students of
an Institute, which ia located ia the New
England Slates. A year or two since—
just before Lout—tho principal of the
school lectured the hoys upon the pro
priety of abstaining from some accustom
ed article of diet during Lent, and de
sired each one to write the name of the
article upon a slip of paper, and present
It tho next morning at tho opening of
the school. The papers were handed in,
and upon every one was written the In
significant word "hash.”
I’ltnujuurcn beeps out tho light from
many a soul. Like a painted window,
It stops many of tho rays, ami colors
those It does admit.

the sun, which shines as freely In at the
window of a poor man’s cottage ns at the
rich man’s palace. ;•
“ A SHOCKING DEED OF BLOOD.
A White 3Ttm Round in n Deserted Xegvo Cabin
Xettr Augusta, '(in., with His Throat Cuf
from JTrtr to Rav — TetAttre, ATjie Hays After
Heed teas Committed. ' >
Our Augmta exchanges contain ac
counts of the fin ding of a white man, oh
Friday last, with his throat cut from ear
(o ear, lying in an unoccupied negro cab
In, a short distance from the Savannah
river, about eight and u half miles from
that city, opposite Bugg’a Bar, the point'
where ihe steamer Clyde was sunk some
months ago. The wounded man stated
that he had reached the cabin six days
previous, soon after receiving the terrible
wound from which lie was suffering,
where he hud remained over since with
out fire and without nourishment. Soon
after his discovery relief Was sent to him,
but he was unable, from the nature oi
his, wound, to take but little nourish
ment, notwithstanding tho terrible crav
ings produced by his prolonged absti
nence from food. He lay, with his
throat deeply gashed from ear to ear, the
esophagus and trachea completely sever
ered, the nourishment which he
ed to take being discharged from tbe
wound.in his throat as rapidly as taken
into the mouth, only when his chin was
pressed closely down upon, his breast
temporarily pressing the severed parts
together. In this way a very sma J l
quantity of nourishment was introduced
Into his system. Immediate, steps were
taken to remove tho unfortunate man to
AugustUi where he was placed in the City
Hospital, under skillful medical atten
tion and careful nursing.
’ The Chronicle and'Sentinel gives the
following additional particulars of the
shocking affair;
The wounded man gives his name as
Theobald Fabre, a native of Kehl, Baden.
He states that he is a baker by trade,
and has been a resident of New York
four years. He recently came to Charles
town and thence to Augusta on the cars.
From this city, according to liis own ac
count, he started on foot to Tennessee,
but had evidently wandered considerably
out of his proper route in following tbe
line of the Savannah river.
Mr. Fabre, in accounting for the terri
ble wound which he bears, was some
what incoherent and unsatisfactory In
fixing the ’responsibility for the deed.
On one occasion he stated that while
traveling along the road at night he was
suddenly attacked by two men, knocked
down and his throat cut, as previously
described, aud he was uuable to tell
whether they were white or black men.
On another occasion, he states that while
traveling the road in daylight he was or
dered to halt by a white man. Not obey
ing tbe order, be says that the said white
man rushed upon him aud cut his throat,
leaving him lying in the road.
Under the existing circumstances, it
would seem to be altogether legitimate
to infer that the sufferer, in a moment of
temporary mental aberatiou, probably
caused by a luck of knowledge of his
whereabouts, had himself inflicted the
wound in an attempt to commit suicide.
The Earliest Newspaper.
Authorities have differed widely as to
the nation and city entitled to the honor
of having started the first printed news
paper. For many years it was supposed
that the credit belonged to England. It
was claimed that the British Museum
had a copy of the'earliest paper in its col
lection. It was called the English Mer
curic, and printed July 23, 15SS ; but It
has been shown that this copy, like spec
imens of rare old coius, was spurious,
and gotten up for sale. Watts, the biog
rapher of the Museum, who saw, on ex
amination. that the type and paper were
of modern’orlgiu, and did nut belong to
the sixteenth century, exposed the for
gery. It was au ineeuious fabrication,
pretending to give the news of the Span
ish \rmada, which was destroyed in the
English Channel by Drake and Howard
a day or two previous to the date of the
sheet. There were seven numbers of
this spurious Mercuric produced—four in
manuscript, and three in print.
Venice lias also claimed the 'honor of
leading the way in giving newspapers to
the world. The Gazclta, thus named
because it sold for a small piece of mdney
called gazette, it is asserted, was printed
there in 1570, ami it is pretended that
copies of this paper of that date are in
Oue or two collections in Loudon; But
Ipte discoveries have . apparently estab
lished the claim of the old German city
of Nuremberg to lids high honor. A
paper culled the Gazette, according to
trustworthy authorities, was printed in
that city as early as 1457, five years after
Peter Sohoger cast the first metal type in
matrices. Nuremberg, with the first pa
per in the fifteenth century, also claims
the honor of the first paper in the six
teenth century There is ail anciently
printed sheet in the Llbri collec
tion which antedates all others except
the sheet of 1457 and the Chronicle of Co
logne. It is called the Mcuc Zeltung ans
Uispanien unci Italien, and bears the
date of February, 1534. The British Mu
seum, it is said, has a duplicate of this
sheet.
Thus to Germany belongs Hie honor
nut only of tho first printers and the first
printing, but also of the first printed
newspaper. It has also another claim to
distinction. In 1615 JOgenolf Eurmel
started Die Frankfurter Obcrposlamts
Zeitung, the first daily paper lu the
world. This journal ia still published ;
and the city of Frankford is to erect a
monument in honor of Its founder and
editor as the father of newspapers.—

Dresden Porcelain.
The celebrated porcelain of Saxony
bears the name of, though It is not made
•in, Dresden, hut at the town of Meissen
on the Elbe, fifteen miles below the Cap
itol. Not to go there la a palpable ne
glect of the tourist's obligation. The
porcelain manufactory Is In the Old Cas
tle, once the residence of tho Saxon
princes. It la an Imposing edifice, and,
from Its lofty position on the bank of the
river, looks remarkably picturesque at a
distance, and not much less so on close
inspection. Its appearance Is assisted by
tho Cathedral hard by, a handsome Goth
ic structure with n graceful opeu-work.
spire.
The earth from which tho porcelain Is
made la obtained from Aue, an Insignifi
cant village twelve rallea fromj Zwlokau,
CARLISLE, PA., THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3T. 1813,
’The process of preparing and baking the
clay Is slow, difficult, and complicated.
The mixture, or biscuit, is composed
principally of kaolin and ground feld
spar. The materials are reduced to very
flue powder, and stirred together with
water in cisterns, the surplus water being
pressed out through linen bags, separated
by filtration or othes methods. When
the biscuit is of tbe consistency of dough,
it fa thoroughly worked over by beating,.
kuoadiug, and treading, and is then put
away moist for a yepr or more to undergo
tbe moulding process, which increases
its plasticity. The bettor kinds of porce
lain are formed In moulds of gypsum,
aud the nicest skill and care are needed
to fashion the vessels, as well as lu the
glazing and baking. A good deal of tbe
ware is unavoidably spoiled, such precise
handling does it require; but the artisans
employed in Us manufacture have had
years of training and. experience, and
have inherited their trade, as is tho case
with the Brussels lace-makers and Am
sterdam diamond-cutters. It is said that
the excellence of porcelain depends on lo
cality and atmosphere; that numerous
eflorts to manufacture the Dresden china
elsewhere, with exactly the same mate
rial and the same workmen, have fulled
again and again. There was always
something lacking—something almost
indefinable, but still something. Wheth
er it is that , the artisans are accustomed
to a certain routine aud subject to subtle
influences of-surrounding,. which they
can not change without detriment to the
product of their hands, is an open.ques
tion ; but that skilled labor not infre
quently follows the same mysterious law
governing the removal of plants has been
shown by repeated experiments. The
manufacture of porcelain has been for
generations the meal profitable Industry,
of the. neighborhood of Dresden, and is
likely to continue so for geueraiions to
come.—From “Along tfio Eld©/’ by Ju

zinc for March,
A Female in Disguise-,
-A few days sincea person was brought
to tho insane retreat in Hartfoid, Conm,
by the deputy sheriff of Westport, un
der the name of Patrick Holden, tfhe
patient was perfectly crazy and was
with difficulty,kept under control. It
was soon discovered that the new. arri
val was a woman, and not a man, and
quite a Sensation was created. A West
port correspondent of a New York pa
per gives some facts in relation to this
curious case. He says :
“Some three years since a person
giving his name as Patrick Holden
came to this place and applied for a
situation. Mr. Moses Sherwood, a
large farm owner, took him into his
employ. He proved to he a valuable
acquisition to the farm force, and per
formed the duties required of him at
all times faithfully. He hoed, mowed
and worked with others in the fields,
drove the oxen, rode the horses, and
alwaps exhibited muscular strength,-
boldness and firmness—traits belonging
to the sterner sex—and that softness,
sensibility and modesty characteristic
of the female sex was never discernable.
During he boarded at the
house of his employer, and neither Mr.
Sherwood nor any of his family or
neighbors had ever suspected that he
was she. He was bright, intelligent,
and soon became a favorite with the
ladies, among whom When the day’s
work was over, he visited. He was
somewhat given to flirtation with the
girls, and occasionally indulged in the
pleasant pastime of sparking. His
agreeable ways enabled him to play the
gallant to perfection, and it is said he
caused much fluttering among the
hearts of those who had eyes to con
quest. In fact, ho acted like any well
behaved fellow, until about the middle
of January last when unmistakable
signs of a deranged minds showed
themselves.
Mrs. was tlie first to take
note of the change, and so informed her
husband.. Neither, however, suspected
that it was a woman toward whom they
were exercising sympathy. By kind
ness and coaxing they succeeded in
keeping the unfortunate under control
until the 23th, when lie became perfect
ly crazy, and was conveyed to the re
treat at Hartford by Deputy Shorilf
Rufus Cable, assisted by Mr. James
Allen, where the truesexof the patient
was dsscovered. The disclosures made
at the retreat have produced the great
est excitement among those here who
thought they knew the stranger best,
and speculation is rifo as to what may
be the next local sensation.”
What To Do In Oase of Accident.
Prof. Wilder, of Cornell University,
gives the foi lowing abort rules for action
in cases of accident, which will be found
useftll to preserve or remember:
For dust In the eyes avoid rubbing ;
dash water into them; remove cinders,
&0., with the round point of a lead pen
<fil.
Remove water from the ear by tepid
water; never put a hard instrument into
the ear.
If any arfery is cut, compress above
the wound ; if a vein is cut, compre-s be
low.
It choked, get upon all fours and
cough.
For alight burns, dip the part in cold
water ; if the akin is destroyed, cover
with varnish.
Smother a fire with carpets, Ac. Wa
ter will often spread burning oil and in
crease danger. Before pushing through
smoke, take a full breath and then stoop
low; but If carbonic gas is suspected,
walk erect.
Buck poisoned wounda, unless your
mouth Is eoro; enlarge tho wound, or
better, out out tho part without delay ;
hold the wounded part as long as eau be

THE CREDIT MOBILISE.
EEPOET OF THE POLAND COMMITTEE.
lIISTOIIY OF THE GKEAT KC’ANDAIr.
THE MEMBERS OF COHOHESS IMPLICATED,
The Jteaolulion to J!*l>el Amen anil Vroata,
Washington, Feb. 18—The special
committee of the House of Representa
tives, appointed to investigate the
charges implicating certain members
in the Credit Mobilier corporation
frauds, made a report td-day through
the chairman, Judge Luke P. Poland.
The first part of the report contains
the resolutions authorizing the ap
pointment of tho committee, a history
of the great frauds which were investi
gated, and a recapitulation of the evi
dence taken.
MR, BLAINE
, The committee find that Mr. Ames
had a conversation with, Mr. Blaine in
regard to taking ten shares of tho
stock, as a good investment. Upon
consideration Mr. Blaino concluded
not to take tho stock, or stock of tho
the Union Pacific Railroad Company,
and never did take it, and never paid
dr received anything on account of it.
MB.. .DAWES.
Mr. Dawos received no other benefit
than to get ten per cant, upon lys
money, and after the settlement had
no further interest in the stock.
MR. SCOFIELD.
In 1866 Mr. Scofield purchased some
Cedar Rapids bonds of Mr. Ames, and
in that year they had conversations
about Mr. Scofield taking stock in the
Credit Mobilier Company, but no con
tract was consummated.
JUDGE KELLEY.
The committee find from the evi
dence that in the early part of the
second session of the Fortieth Congress,
and probably in December, 1807, Mr.
Ames agreed with Mr. Kelley to sell
him ten shares of Credit Mobilior stock
at par and interest from July 1, 1807.
Mr. Kelley was not then prepared to
pay for the stock, agreed to carry the
stock for him until he could pay for
it.
On the 3d day of January, iSOS, there
Whs a dividend of eighty per cent, on
Credit Mobilier stock in Union Pacific
bonds. Mr. Ames received the bonds
as the stock stood in his name, and sold
them for ninety-seven per cent, of their
face. In Juno, 18GS, there was a cash
dividend of sixty per cent.; which Mr.
Ames also received. The proceeds of
the bonds sold and the cash dividend
received by Mr. Ames amounted to
$1370. The par value of the stock and
interest thereon from the previous July
amounted to $1047, so that after paying
for the stock there was a balance of
dividends duo Mr. Kelley, of $329. On
the 23d day of June, 1808, Mr. Ames
gave Mr. Kelley a check for that sum
on the aergoant-at-arms of the House of
Representatives, and Mr. Kelley re
ceived the money thereon.
The committee find that Mr. Kelley
then understood that the money he
thus received was a balance of divi
dends due him after paying for the
stock. All the subsequent dividends
upon .the stock wore either In Union
Pacific stock or bonds, and they wore
all received by Mr. Ames. In Sep
tember, 1808, Mr. Kelley received from
Mr. Ames $750 in money, which was
understood between them to bo an ad
vance to be paid out of dividends. —
There has never been any adjustment
of the matter between them, and there
is now an entire variance in the testi
mony of the two men as to what the
transaction between them was, but the
committee are unanimous in finding
the facts above stated. The evidence
reported to the House gives soma sub
sequent conversations and negotiations
between Mr. Kelley and Mr. Ames on
this subject. The committee do not
deem it material to refer to it in their
report.
GENERAL GARFIELD.
The facts in regard to Mr. Garfield, a
Representative from Ohio, ns found by
the commute, are identified with the
case of Mr. Kelley, to the point of the
check for $329. He agreed with Mr.
Ames to take ton shares of the Credit
Mobilier stock, but did not pay for the
same. Mr. Ames received the eighty
per cent, dividend in bonds, and sold
them for 97 per cent., and also received
the 00 per cent, cash dividend, which,
together with the price of thestock and
Interest, left a balance of $329. This
sura was paid over to Mr. Garfield
by a check on the sorgeant-at-arms. •
THE ATTRACTION’ OF THE CRIME.
gJThe committee enumerates tho
Causes and temptations of tho wrong
doings of tho above named gentlemen
and others, and then tho report adds:
“ In a fieo government like ours wo
cannot expect tho people will long re
spect tliu laws if they lose respect for
tho law-makers. For those reasons wo
think it behooves every man in Con
gross or in any public position to hol ( j
himself aloof, as far as possible, from
all such influences, that he may not
only bo enabled to look at evory pubile
question with an eye only to the public
good, hut that his conduct and motives
be not suspected or questioned. The
only criticisms the committee feel com
pelled to make on tho action of these
members in taking this stock is that
they were not sufficiently careful in as
certaining what they were getting, and
that in their judgment in the assur
ance of a good investment was all the
assurance they needed.”
MB. BROOKS,
In Octobor, 1867, Mr. Brooks was ap
pointed by tho President one of the
government 1 directors of the Union
Pacific road. In December, 1867, after
tho stock of the Credit Mobilier was
understood by those familier with the
affairs between the Union Pacific road
and tho Credit Mobilier, to be worth
very much more than par, Mr. Brooks
applied to Dr. Durant, and claimed
that ho should have 200 shares of Credit
Mobilier slock. It does not appear
that Mr. Brooks claimed that he had
any legal contract-for stock that ho
could enforce, or that Durant consider
ed himself in any way legally bound to
let him have any ; but still, on account
of what had been said, and the efforts
of Mr. Brooks to aid him, he consid
ered himself under obligations to satis
fy Mr. Brooks in the matter. The
stock had been so far taken up, and
was then in such demand, that Durant
could not well comply with Brooks’
demand for 200 shares. After consid
erable negotiation it was finally ad
justed between them by Durant agree
ing to let Brooks have 100 shares of
Credit Mobilier stock, and giving him,
with it, $5,000 of Union Pacific bonds
and $20,000 bf Union Pacific slock.
The whole business by. which these
shares were procured was done by Mr.
Brooks. Neilson knew notning of any
right to have them, and only wont for
the certificate when told to do so by
Mr. Brooks. The committee find that
no such right to fifty shares additional
stock passed by the transfer of tha one
hundred, and from Mr. Brooks’ fa
miliarity with tho affairs of the com
pany tho committee believe he must
have known his claim to them >vas un
founded. The question naturally
arises, how was ho able to procure
them? Tho stock at this time, by the
stockholders, was considered worth
three or four times its par value. —.
Neilson sustained no relation to any of
these people that commanded any
favor, and if he could have used any
influence he did not attempt it. If he
had this right he was unaware of it till
told by Mr. Brooks, and left the whole
matter in his hands.
It is clear that the shares were pro
cured by tha sole efforts of Mr. Brooks,
and, as the stockholders who consented
to it supposed, for the benefit of Mr.
Brooks. What power had Mr. Brooks
to enforce an unfounded claim to have
for $5OOO stock worth $15,000 to $20,000?
Without further comment on the
evidence, the committe find that the
one hundred and fifty shares of stock
appearing on the books of the Credit
Mobilier, in the name pf Neilson, were
really the stock of Mr. Brooks and sub :
ject to his control, and that it was so
understood by both parties. Mr.
Brooks.had taken such an interest in
the Credit Mobilier Company, and was
so connected with Dr. Durant that he
must be regarded as having full
kno wiedge of the relations between
that company and tho railroad compa
ny, and of tho contracts between them.
He must have known tho cause of tho
sudden increase in value of the Credit
Mobilier stock, and how tho largo ox
j peeled profi ts were to be made.
CONCLUSION
The report concludes as follows
The foregoing are "the views which we
deem proper fo submit upon the general
question of jurisdiction of the House over
Its members. But apart from these gen
eral views, the committee is of the opin
ion that the facts found in the present
cases amply justify the taking jurisdic
tion over them, for the following rea
sons :
The subject matter upon which the uc
ciou of the members was intended to be
influenced was of a continuous charac
ter, and was as likely to be a subject-of
Congressional action in, future Congresses
as in the Fortieth. The Influences
brought to bear i on members were us
likely to be operative upon them in the
future as in the present, and were so in
tended.
Mr. Ames and Mr. Brooks have both
continued members of the House to the
present time, and so have most of the
members upon whom these, influences
were sought to be exerted. The commit
tee are, therefore, of opinion that the acts
of these men may very properly be treat
ed ns offenses against the present House,
and so within its jurisdiction upon tiro
most limited rule.' Two members of the
committee, Messrs. Nlblack and McCra.
ry, prefer to express no opinion on the
general Jurisdictional questions discussed
in the report and their judgment on the
ground lust stated.
In relation to Mr. Ames, ho sold to
several members of Congress stock of the
Credit Mobilier Company at par when it
was worth double that amount or more,
with the purptse and Intent thereby to
influence their votes and decisions upon
matters to come before Congress.
T'he facts found in the report ns to Mr.
Brooks show that he used the Influence
of his otlicial positions ns a member of
Congress and government director in the
Union Pacific Railroad Company to get
fifty shares of the stock of the Credit
Mobilior Company at par when it was
worth three or four times that sum,
knowing that it was given to him, with
intent to influence his votes add decis
ions In Congress and his action as a gov
ernment director.
TUB VERDICT,
“The sixth section of the act of Febru
ary 20, 1803, 10 Htat. U. H. 7. is in tho fol
lowing words—“lf any porsop or persons
shall directly or indirectly promise, offer
or give, or cause, to procure to be promis
ed, offered or given, any money, goods,
right in action, bribe, present or reward,
or any promise, Contract, undertaking,
bllgatlon or security for the pa yment o
YOL 59—N 0.38
delivery of euy money, goods, right in
action, bribe, present or reward, or any
other valuable thing whatever, to any
member of the Senate or House of Rep
resentatives of the United States after
his election as such member, and either
before or after ho shall have qualified
and taken his seat, or to any officers of
the United States, or persons holding
any place of trust or profit, or discharg
ing any official function, under or in
connection with any department of the
government of the United States after
the passage of this act, with intent to in
fluence his vote or decision on any ques-.
tion, matter or cause or proceedings
which may then he pending, or may by
law or under the Constitution of the
United States he brought before him in
his official capacity, or In his place of
trust or profit, and shall therefore he
convicted, such person or persona so of
fering, p remising, or giving, or causing
or procuring to be promised, offered, or
given, any such money, goods, right in
action, bribe, present or reward, on any
promise, contract, undertaking, obliga
tion, or security for the payment or do
livery of any money, goods, right in ac
tion, bribe, present, or reward, or other
valuable thing whatever; and the mem
ber, officer* or person who shall in any
wise accept or receive the same or any
part thereof, shall be liable to indictment
as fora crime and misdemeanor in any
of the courts of the United States having
jurisdiction for the trial of crimes and
misdemeanors, and shall, upon convic
tion thereof, be lined not exceeding ten
times the amountjso ofiered, promised,
•or given, and imprisoned in a peniten
tiary not exceeding ten yoars ; and the
person convicted of so accepting or re
ceiving the same, or any part thereof, If
an officer or a person holding any place,
trustor, profit as aforesaid, shall forfeit
bis office or place; and any person so
convicted under, this section shall forever
bo disqualified to hold any office of hon
or, trust or profit under the TJnited States.
In the.judgment of the committee, the
fact reported in regard to Mr. Ames and
Mr. Brooks, would have justified their
conviction under the above recited sta
tute, and subjected them to the penalties
therein provided. The committee need
not enlarge upon the,dangerous charac
ter of these offenses.
The sense of Congress is shown by the
severe penalty denounced by the statute
itself. The offenses were not in viola
tion of private right, but were against
the very life of a constitutional govern
ment by poisoning the fountain of legis
lation. The duty devolved upon the
committee has been of a most painful
and delicate character. They have per
formed it to the best of their ability; they
have proceeded .with the greatest care
and deliberation, for while they desired
to'do their full duty to the House and the
country, they were most anxious not to
do injustice to any. man. In forming
these conclusions they have intended to
be entirely cool and dispassionate, not lo
allow themselves to be swerved by any
popular favor on the one hand, or any
feeling of personal favor and sympathy
on the other. The committee submit to
the House and recommend the adoption
of the-followiug resolution : “
Whereas, Mr. Oakes Ames, a Repre
sentative in this House from the Slate of
Massachusetts, has been guilty of soiling
to members of Congress shares of stuck
of the Credit Mobllier of America for
prices much below the true value of said
stock, with Intent thereby to influence
the votes and decisions of such Members
in matters to be brought before Congress
for action ; therefore,
Resolved, That Mr. Oakes Ames be and
is hereby expelled ifrom his seat as a
member of this House.
u. Whereas, James Brooks, a Repre
sentative in this House from the State of
New York, did procure the Credit Mobi-
Her Company to issue and deliver to C.
H. Neilson, for the benefit of said
Brooks, fifty shares of the stock of said
Company at a price much below its real
value, well knowing that the same was
so issued and delivered with iuteut to in
fluence the votes and decision of said
Brooks as a member of the House to be
brought before Congress for action, and
also to influence the action of said Brooks
as a government director in the Union
Pacific Railroad Company ; therefore,
Resolved, That Air. James Brooks be
ami be la hereby expelled from hia seat
as a member of this House.
A Brayo Woman.
\ young lady living near Hunting
don Harbor, L. 1., recently performed
a deed of heroism which entitles her to
a niche in the same gallery with Ida
Lewis. It appears that two men re
cently embarked in a frail skiff, after
having purchased a weekly supply of
of provisions, and started for Faton’s
Neck, where they were employed in a
gravel pit. To pass from the harbor
into Huntingdon Bay, they had to gp
through a narrow strait and row close
to the shore for several miles. They
had just passed through the straits in
safety when the boat became entangled
in a 1100 of ice. The efforts of the men
to pull out of it only made matters
worse, and they Anally capsized and
found themselves Aoundering in the
water. Neither of them could swim,
and clinging to whatever they could
lay their hands upon and called loudly
for help. Their cries were heard at a
neighboring farmhouse, where there
lived three women and a littlb boy.
All rushed down to the beach, and one
of them, Miss Lucinda Conkling waded
out into the bay determined to do what
she cou d to save the struggling men.
With a heroism seldom paraded she
plunged out where the water was over
head, and after a few vigorous strokes
reached one of the drowning men.—
Although exhausted he was still sensi
ble, and obeying Miss Conkling’s di
rection ho placed his hands on her
slyulders and was dragged to the shore.
The young lady was thoroughly cx
houated by her exertions and fainted
soon after landing. The man was car
ried into a neighboring house and was
after a time revived. His companion
clung to the keel of the boat and was
hauled ashore soon afterwards.

The terrible and wide-spread ravage*
of that extraordinary disease, called Cre-
It MobUier, are alarming the whole na
tion. The epizootic was os mild as the
measles compared to It. It has already
carried eff many most distinguished vic
tims- It did not come from Canada like
the epizootic, nor from Asia like the
cholera, nor from tho West Indies like
the yellow fever. It is believed to .have
started somewhere in Penn&ylvania.nnd,
meeting with a favorable condition of
the atmosphere in Washington, District
of Columbia, stayed there and was do
veipped by reason of the defective sani
tary arrangements in the political sys
tem of the capital. Great sympathy is

distinguished citizens having been swept
