Vwusi30N Jan. 40, 1872. Those
Vho knrw this city only when it was con
trolled and inhabited chiefly by persons who
sympathized nnd neted with the aoecesion
csts during tho Into Rebellion, can readily
recall the want of thrift and enterprise that
characterised all S nithern cities. Within
the last ten years iVashington has not only
doubled its population, but properly lins
risen in value in many instances, from one
hundred to four hundred per cent. The
introduction of northern people witliynnkt'e
energy, bus infused n spirit of enterprise
that exhibits itself iu the erection of elegant
nnd comfortable buildings, wide and ex
tended streets, now nil being paved, hand
some parks and gardens and other improve
ments. Had the metropolis of the nation
been in such hands 00 years ago it would
now bo ono of our largest cities.
In going to the Navy Yard, a few days
since, I observed that magnificent improve,
raent the tunnel, by which the Baltimore
r tid Potomac Railroad enters the city. A
f.ve days work will complete it, nud iu a
few nfnulhs hence passengers to Washing
ton will be able togo through to that city
t'muks to the Northern Central and Penna.
Kailroad freed from the annoyances nnd
extortions of that secesh monopoly, the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad Co. It will
be, in fact, an extension of the Northern
Ceutral Road, and will be managed with
the same energy and ability that has built
up that maguiiicent work. In connection
with nil this, it should be a matter of no
small gratification that our member, Hon.
J. 13. Packer, now represents the Kailroad
interests of the nation, a3 the chairman of
t'liit committee iu Congress.
A few days ago I called nt the Agricul
tural Department to sec nn old friend,
Judge Watts, of Pennsylvania, who now
presides over that department nt the carn
tst solicitation of tho President. The
Judge who is so well fitted for this position
accepted the office with great reluctance,
nnd has made considerable sacrifice in
leaving a co'ttlortable home, nt his advanc
ed nge.

prominently before tho ublic through the
libel nnd alleged black-mailing case of Miss
Josio Mansfield, was shot on Saturday
afternoon by 0110 Edward S. Stokes, who
had figured prominently in tho suit. The
afiiiir occurred al half-past four o'clock,
just ns Tisk entered the vestibule of tho
Grand Central Hotel. The assailant was
immediately nrrested. nnd incarcerated in
the Tombs. Two balls entered tho person
of l'"isk, nnd the wounds, which were not
at first considered as fatal, proved to be so,
however, nt a few minutes before eleven
o'clock next morning. The wife and fathom-law
of the deceased, together with many
of his personal friends, were at his bedside
when lie expired. Tho remains were re
moved to his lale rcsideuce. No. 313 W.
Twenty-third street.
Tho Philadelphia Press speaking of this
tragedy says :
"FisVs death, in nil its tragic and wretch
ed features, is an impulsive lesson for the
hour. His life nud example have been
baneful, nnd the manner of his taking oil'
was perhaps needed to (mini the moral fu
tile thoughtless and easily dazzled. With
nil his seemingly brilliant success, with all
his wonderful "tact and power, with nil his
resistless energy nnd infinity of resource,

plucked turned to ashes in his hands. It

HE IS ASSAILED AND SHOT.

DIED SUNDAY MOUSING AT 10.45.
New Youk, Jan. 0. Jim Fisk was shot
twice In tho breast by Edward 8. Ntokes,
nt tho Ginnd Central Hotel, this afternoon
at 4.20. The alliiir took place in the hotel
vestibule. Fisk was assisted to a chair,
nnd it is thought Hint he is mortally woun
ded. Stokes has been nrrested and taken
to tho Fifteenth precinct slaliou house.
Fisk had just nllighlod from his-carriage
nnd entered the hotel, when ho wns shot.
Tho followint; nre the circumstances at
tending the Fisk shooting case. At 4.1W
p. in., a carriage stopped at the entrance
of tho Grand Central lintel, containing
Fisk and n companion. Tho former nllgh
ted and entered the hotel for tho purpose
of proceeding to his rooms, nud as ho as
Tended the first step Stokes unperceived by
Fisk. unbuttoned hiseonl, drew a revolver,
and rapidly discharged three shots at Fisk.
The first shot lodged in Fisk'n shoulde'
the Second whistled by his head, and the
thild with more fatal directions, struck
him in the abdomen indicting a mnrlal
wound. Fisk nt once staugered and fell,
while Stokes casting n look of hatred at his
prostrate form said in a savage tone '"1 have
done for the s of a b tliia lime."
Fisk evidently recognized his assailant
before billing, but made no remark. Fisk
was quickly conveyed to his room, where
the surgeon of the hotel was soon in atten
dance upon him. Meanwhile telegraphic
messages were sent for further surgical aid
and for the friends of Fisk. The scene at
ir.e imiei alter me snootim was one 01 ex- ,1,,. on,-,-!,,!,.. 1 , ,1 n,i. i.r.,; !,;.

thu expiration of two yenrs for 801,000.
Fisk having hinrd that the Stonineton line
of steamers were for sale, came to New
Y 01 kin lrto3, uud by soma hocos-pocus
secured the negotiation for their sale from
Daniel Crew, the proprietor. This opera
tion proved successful, nnd Fisk now enter
ed into speculations in Wall street, and la
less than two yenrs lost every dollar be
possessed. With tho assist anct of Drew
lie established, in -1HIS5, the firm of Fisk,
Uehleti & Co., brokers, aud wns, with Jny
Gould. clecU'd 0110 of the. directors of the
Erie Railway. During February, 180H,
the famous over-issue of the slock of the
Erie was completed, tho capital of thnt
mnd being incrensed from $10,000,000.
Fisk nnd Gould thought they could make
Immense fortunes by this o, oration, nud
induced the board to purchase, at 70 per
cent., fc.VOOO.Ui'O of tho Sl0,00U,U00 orstock
held by Com. Vanderbill. At the same
lime tiiey paid Vanderdilt 8100,000 for the
the contract for six mouths of his remain
ing So.liOO.OUO. They then held the HHO,
OlKI.OOO "short," and so worked that the
slock fell from 72J toll"). They then in
creased the company's slock fro'm SrU4,0()0

stock at 4 1 per cent, with the pr teceds of
the sale, clearing over Sl.l-",W0 by this
transaction. He now, in July 18158, dis
solved the brokerage linn, mid together
with his co-conspirator set machinery in
motion to obtain control of the Erie road.
lty prosecuting Eldridge, thu president of
too road, tor iiaumiicutiy using t,uu,uuu 01
the company's money, he compelled him to
to resign, Jay Gould' became the successor
of Eldridge, and Fisk bought Pike's Opera.

Mr. Mackey, In response, expressed Ids

that it bad been reached without any soli
citation on his port; nnd it would be his

' Irishmen and the Tariff.
One of the strangest anomalies of Ameri
can politics is the blank stupidity Willi
which so many of the Irish volets support
tne party 01 uniisii nee trade. England
crushed Ireland by destroying the tariff
laws ; yet, curiously enough, Irishmen
support the Democratic parly, that favors
the same policy here. The' abolition, or
even reduction of tho tariir, means the re

lield from publishing the letters in Miss
conscience is worthless, that the respect of
cood men is better than riches, that con
spieuousness may only by vulgarity and
shut the doors of society instead of open

of servants nnd sycophants, Fisk was a man
without intluence ; for inlluence is the
measure of con lidence had in the persou
exercising it. and rests on a moral founda
tion. Willi all his money nnd ships and
titles, reputable society" had barred its
tloftrs against him, anil he was literally
driven to the company of tho outcast a'.nl

On the market to-day Fisk's death will
be recorded in the figures of the stock list.
