The Butt conies In the shape of a petition to Bi t aside the ill. voroe Kinnled by JihIro Jlrewster In 1H07 of Oharles J. NenRher from (,'aro line Neunher. The petitioner Is a res. Ident of WaHhlnKtiifi 40 yenrs old, and lias a datiKhter of 22, the fruit of her nianlnne with Weather. Mrs. Nengher; In her petition, avers that she was Join ed In wedlock with Charles J. Neiigher, then about i!B years old, In 'NVaqhiirfcton, ). t;., on February 21, IHiiR, by Jtev. K H. HoiikIi. Her maiden name wti.s (Iclner, and the name of her hiiHband, as written on the marriage certificate, was spelled Kayger. Tho certificate la on recoid In the l'rothonotary 's Olllce In this city, having been used In milise. qiieiit legal proceetllngs by her husband. They lived together as husband and wife at Intervals up to 1H7H, and during tlielr cohabitation their daughter, Kate J. Neagher, was born to them. Their domicile during most of those years was In Washington, I). V. In .December following their marriage Noajjer set out for Australia to better his fortunes, and was absent six years anil nine months, corresponding with his wife occasion ally, and alwayB recognizing her marital claim. Ie returned to his and her home In July, 180.1, and, after spending some time with her, left for l'liiladcl phla on transient business. JTetlld not return, however until June, IHil", al though he had maintained correspond ence meanwhile. His resilience with her on this occiihion was even briefer than before, owing to tastes and habits ot ills which rendered them incompati ble. During these visits there was no hint of divorce on either side, although the wife, in the absence of her husband, had clilelly maintained herself nml daughter by a millinery shop, Neagher returned to his family again 1871, seem ed very much pleased with his daughter, buying her jewelry, eto.i and providing both of them with clothing. He re mained only one night, returning to Philadelphia next day. Two weeks af terward Mrs. iNeagher and the daughter joined Neagher In this city at his re quest. They lodged at the Colon nado Hotel, where they resided several days, Neagher paying all expenses. He re moved them to the GibBon House, on Market Htreet, paying all their ex peuses, introducing them 'as his wife aud daughter, for several weeks, after ward sending them back to Washington, where he visited them frequently be tween '71 and '78. During ull these vis its he never once mentioned, directly or Indirectly, that he desigtied or had in progress any proceedings in divorce, nor of any decree separating them as man and wife, A FltAUDTJLENT DIVOHCE. That such a decree had been grunted she learned first In 18H0,on May 2th of which year he died. Her daughter was advised of Neugher's death by telegraph, and they came on to Philadelphia .to gether, only to learn that a woman named Henrietta Brawley had taken out letters of administration on Keagh er's estate, claiming to be his wife, Mrs. Neagher at once employed John Flint, a member of the bar, to investi gate the records, and from him learned of a decree divorcing Neagher from her on the ground 'of adultery. The decree had been granted on return of non est inventus after legal publication. In view of the fact that Neagher was nev er ignorant of the fuct that LU wife re sided in Washington, and, as can be abundantly proven, visited her frequent ly both about the time of and subsequent to the entry of the decree of divorce, Mrs. Neagher felt encouraged to proceed to have the decree set aside and the di vorce annulled on the ground of fraud. Counselor Flint was instructed to pro ceed and Mrs. Neagher after acquaint ing him with all the facts, returned to Washington. The , lawyer prepared voluminous affidavits which were sent to Washington for proper execution, but before they could be presented to the Court he died after a prolouged Illness, of which Mrs. Neagher was ignorant all the time supposing him to be acting for her best interests. It was only just recently that she regained possession of the papers and instructed E. B. Watson, Esq., to proceed in her behalf, with the result of the speedy placing of her case on. the calendar of the Court. In his re searches in the case Mr. Watson has made some curious discoveries. In the original divorce proceedings testimony was taken in Washington without no. tiee to her,, aud not by a commissioner regularly deputed by the examiner, but by a Justice of a Pence, who was him self the only witness of the alleged adult ery, and who probably administered the oath to himself, Inasmuch as no Jurat Is appended. This fact or Itself under the practice of Courts of tills Hliile would tie sufficient to Invalidate such testimony. Among the other Interesting docu ments discovered In the records of the l'rothonotary were certificates of tho ill voire of Charles J. Neger from Amelia Ncger, decreed January 0, '72, and the application of liouls Neger for divorce from Caroline Neger, filed April U), '71, both of which are believed to refer to other marital ventures of Charles J. Neagher. The plalnlltr In the present case has been Informed that her husband married three other women during his sojourn In Australia. The Inventory of Nengher's eRtnte embraces several houses and other Items of real estate and $1,500 cash in this city, and two highly productive farms In Australia. The A;tcmpt to Kill President Jackson. ANDUF.W JACKKON hud many bit ter enemies. Being naturally a man of violent temper, he had never learned to control himself, aud In tho discharge of Ills tilllclnl duty he had been compelled to give great nlTensn to many who hon estly dlflered from him. His veto of the Bank bills and his prompt measures to put down nullification hud Inflamed tho passions of his political opponents. Many said and believed that he was ruining the country, and he aggravated the feelings against him by his unyield ing and Imperious manner. A Mr. Jtnu dolph, who hud been a lieutenant In the navy ami had been cashiered, at tempted to pull President's Juckson's nose publicly, and report says, more than half succeeded. At least, the Pres. ideut's face was with covered blood. His pride was wounded In this case, but there was no actual danger. "Had I known," said Jackson, " that Randolph stood before inr, 1 should have been prepared, and I could have defended myself. No villliin ever CHcnped me before, and he would not, hud It not been for my confined situation." (The President was sel.ed in an linn clialr when attacked). Far more serious was the attempt made upon the President's Hie Jan. ill), 1835. On that dtiy tlie President and his Cabinet aud both houses of Congress met in the hall of the House of Repre sentatives to take part in the funeral ceremonies of a deceased member of Congress from Kouth Carolina. As the President, near the head of tlie proces sion, was passing out from the rotunda of the Capitol and was about to enter the portico, ti man stepped out of the crowd, and, standing not eight feet from the President, leveled u pistol at him and pulled tlie trigger. Thecnp missed lire. .The man instantly drew second pistol from under his cloak and uguln tried to shoot. But the second cap also minced tire. President Jackson rushed furiously at the assassin with uplifted cane, and would have felled him to the grilund, but, before he could reach the man, Lieut. Gedney, of tlie navy, had knocked him down, aud lie wus speedily secured. The prisoner, who was au English house-painter named Lawrence Porter, explained his motives in words which apply with singular aptness to the case of the wretched Guiteuu : Healing on all sides that the country had been ruined by the measures of Gen. Jackson, the project of assassinating him had fastened Itself in his crazy brain. The physicians who examined him reported : " He stated that, believ ing the President to be the source of all his difficulties, he was still determined to kill him ; and, if his successor pur sued the same course, to put him out pf way also." Lawrence was placed in an asylum. The insinuations of the Vlolc that he was the agent of a conspiracy obtained no general credence. But Jackson him self always insisted that abler minds than Lawrence's had instigated the as sault. Miss Martlneau, who witnessed the funeral ceremonies and hud a con fused view of the exciting scene when the President was'shot at, writes in her " Retrospect of Western Travel :" When I did go to the White House I took the briefest possible notice to the President of the "insane attempt" of Lawrence, but the word roused bis ire. He protested, in the presence of many strangers, that there was no insanity in the case. I was silent, of course. He protested that there was n plot and that the man was a too, and quoted the Attorney General as his authority. It was painful to hear a chief ruler public ly trying to persuade a foreigner that any of his constituents hated him to the death, and I took the liberty to change the subject. Gen. Jackson to his dying hour sus pected George Polndexter, of Missif. slppi.of having participated in the at tempt to assassinate him; but few, if any, even of his own partisans, shared in this suspicion. . Bcnnlor.' Snlnrlci. - . ... i UNITED RTATEH Knntors draw their salaries as regularly and with ns much greediness as any other "hired hand" In Washington. Home of them draw every dny during the session of Congress, some once a week, others twice n month. A few of them go into the cashier's room of the Kecrelary's olllce and get tlulr salaries only once a month. One Henutor only draws his salary once a year. Among the Senators who most fre. quently draw on their stipends Is sena tor Voorhees of Indiana. It Is said that lie calls on the Hecrelary for his salary oftener and draws smaller amounts than any other member of the senate, Henry G. Davis of West Virginia Is a rich man, and uses his salary for spend ing money. Whenever he needs a little pocket money he semis Ills clerk into the cashier's olllce and draws $50, $108, and sometimes $500 at a time. He boards at the Arlington Hotel, aud lives within Ids salary. Don Cameron of Pennsylvania, It Is paid, prefers hard money, but Is not reg ulur In calling for his pay. He does not carry any money with him, aud runs a bill at tlie Belittle restaurant, which I iiave heard often amounts to from to $500. When he needs any money he goes in to the cashier uud tells htm to semi up to his house $50 in .ten-cent pieces, $100 In quarters, $200 in "half, dollars, aud $10) or so In silver dollars. I have heard It suggested that Don used his salary in this way as a substitute for poker chips. Boscoe Conkling drew his salary once a month. .When he resigned he sent one of his clerks up to the Capitol and drew all that was due him, including tlie day on which his resignation was rend. He, however was not In his seat Hi nt day nor was he at the Capitol at all afferwurd during the remainder of the extra session. Piatt of New York has a balance of $0 placed to his credit, which if not check ed out before the 1st of July, will be sent to him by the Hecretary of the Kenate. One Hetiator from tho Houth, who owns property, it Is said, frequently sells his salary before it is due at a dis count. I am told that once or twice, after having given an order ou the Hec retary lor his pay, by the way, he has gone aud drawn it out himself, allowing his order to go to protest and be iIIhIioii. ored. Hhermau draws his money whenever lie needs It, sometimes twice a month, and oftener it runs on two months. Biirusldcs sends a draft on the Hecre tary 's olllce to his banker, nt Providence, once a month, and the bank draws on the Hecretury of the Senate regularly every month, whether the Senate, is in session or not. Anthony is the only Henator that draws once a year, and his banker at tends to it for him. Fair, tif Nevada, went oil" without drawing a cent, but his selury from the 4th of March to the 1st of July will be sent to him, if he does not draw it out in the meantime. Fair Is said to be worth $42,000,000. Ben Harrison drew on his salary three or four times. Irf fact, up to the adjournment of the last session that was all the business he did in Washington other than vote no with the Republicans during the dead-lock. Cull of Florida, is said to be the most improvident Henator in the bunch. It is said that he really does not know how to manage his own financial affairs. Senator Joe Brown, who looks like an early day Hcotch Presbyterian, uses Ids salary for living expenses In Washing ton. He draws bis money whenever his hotel presents its bill. Then he goes to the Senate cash man, and complains about how much it costs to live in Wash ington. His living expenses, it is thought however, do not exceed his sal ary. LasJ: winter he boarded at the ltiggs House, but he has bought, or pro poses to buy, a house In which he will live, and it is said, will entertain on an elaborate scale. Mr. Brown is said to be worth one or two millions. There are several Senators who have no other income than their salaries. They cannot draw more money than is actually due them, but are entitled to their salary whether they come near Washington during the session of Con gress or stay away. If they do not call for their money, it is sent to them on the 1st of July each year. The majority of Senators are railroad directors, presi dents of railroad companies, presidents of banks, bank directors, etc. Pendle ton and Sherman both have large rail road interests, as also has Henry G. Davis, of West Virginia, who has large mining interests, besides a large com mercial business in Baltimore. Plumb and Ingalls, of Kansas, are both inter ested in railroad enterprises in the South west. With but few exceptions, all of them are Interested in some way with some corporation or other. The $5,000 salary paid to Senators is, therefore, to them a minor consideration. There is not one of them that would serve If the salary was the only oomilderitllotl Ht stake. Wanted to be nn Editor. YE3TEUDAY old uncle Jesse Wing lop, a time-honored preacher, who bus preached among the. illl for forty years, ami who In his younger days was known as the " wheel-horse exhorler," came to town and called at the (Jatclto ofllco. " My son Gertrgo," said uncle Jesse to the political man, "has Just graduated from tlie old Bed Blufi Academy, and after sauntering around among the pro fesslons, peeping Into lawyer ofllces and poking around doctor shops aud not being satisfied he bus concluded to learn the editing business. I know how much fun has been made of men who want to he editors, but of course I understand all that. At first I'd llko for George to take hold of the religious department, for you know that I can help him some. I've got four or five sermons that I'd like to run in old sermons preached long before men thought of getting out new Testaments. Now, don't ridicule the Idea." "Uncle Jesse," replied the political man with something like a sigh, " we'll hold a cabinet meeting sometime during the present week, when your son's case will be considered. It Is encouraging to see thnt church members are seeking Journalism, anil I have no doubt but that George will be of advantage to us. But 1 must go to dinner now. Just sit down here among the exchanges and amuse yourself until I return. The editor went down, and the oltl man took out his spectacles and began handling papers with a newly- awaken ed Idea of Importance. The editor had not been gone but a few moments when a luiiiy. looking man entered the editori al room, and seeing the minister sur rounded by a ruflled landscape of badly handled apers, exclaimed: " AU I ask of you Is to let ma shake the Little. Hock dust from my feet. Do you hear, spectacled fragment of a ruort- gaged menagerie?" " What do you mean ?" exclaimed the old man in surprise. " Just let me shake this dust off, you gaping whlpperwlll of lint footed Ignor ance. Slander a man as you did me this morning, and then say you don't know what he means!" " I never said a word about you in my life, sir." " Let me shake off this dust and then you can slash and slather my memory, Nice old stretcher of the truth. " Do you mean that 1 have lied sir V "I do." The old man hopped across the room and grappled tho insulter. The fight was earnest and terrible, and when the editor came back, the top of the old man's head was smeared with Ink and the insulter was lying in the hall. " Sort of a monkey and parrot time, as the feller says," remarked the old man. "I say, I believe George will change his mind. You needn't call that cabinet meeting. Talk about a religious department; you ought to have a sackfull of horse-pistols." How Did He Get There? The Lumbcrton (N. C.) Itobaonian says : A few days ago a boy of about 0' years of age, son of Mr. Henry Barnes, living on the Broad Ridge, wa sent on an errand to a neighbor's house. He7 stayed so long that search for him was instituted, when he was found banging1 to the limb of a large pine tree aUiut -twenty feet from the ground. When asked to descend be declared that be could not, and the man who climbed the tree for him found great difficulty in breaking his bold. He could not account for being in the tree; the only solution be could give was that something cold seemed to seize bim around the waist, and the next thing be knew was that he was up in the tree. Persons who exam ined the place say that the boy's tracks could not be found nearer than twenty feet of the tree, while the last tracks seemed to have been made by skipping or bounding. The boy bas been to town and bas been examined, but the above was all that could be decided. Wus itaiv eagle or a bear, or wbat wag it ? She got the Baby. 'Oh ! please give me one of my babies f Please give me one of my babies !" screeched Mrs. Itapp of Cincinnati, who, having sued her husband for di vorce on the ground of adultery, beard the adverse decision of the Judtge grant ing the custody of the children to bim. " Oh I God ! I must have one of my babies. Oh 1 1 have waited so long and so patiently. Oh I take all the money, but give me back my babies." Unable to resist such a pathetic appeal, which thrilled the crowded court-room, the Judge subsequently modified bis decis ion, giving her the youngest child for the present. " God bless you, Judge!" was the grateful acknowledgment.
