This is neither partisan, ku klux, nor

it is the testimony of the Republican
Attorney General of Mississippi under
the Administration of Adelbert Ames.
Tt wa ivlipn the so called Sheriff of
Vicksburg, Crosby was forced to relin

the usual bond, that a conference took
place between Ames, his Attorney Gen

officials. The Attorney General urged
upon the Governor to employ in the

power. Ames thought otnerwise, aim

BLAINE'S POLITICAL DEMISE.
If we can place any reliance upon
the press dispatches Blaine has been
certainly overtaken and caught! In
bis political demise, the Republican
party has lost its leader and head, and
the country one of the moat brilliant
debaters of the day. Only a few
months ago, we had to endure the
humihtaing spectacle of a Cabinet
officer of this Government soiling his
hands with yenal bribes. Blaine on
account of his profound knowledge as
an able parliamentarian and on ac
count of the prominent part he has
acted as a ruling spirit and a director
in the affairs of the nationfor the past
decade, has been looked upon abroad
as the most talented of all the Ameri
can Representatives. We both regret
and rejoice at hia disgraceful end. We
rejoice because we believe his down
fal will ensure the ruin of the Repub
lican party and thus save the country
from national bankruptcy and moral
degradation. We regret that he
should have been found guilty of the
sickening corruption laid to his door,
because it will reflect upon our char
acter as a people and subject us to the
taunts and derisions of the nations of
earth. Blaine more than any other
politician we know of, possessed in a
more eminent degree the qualifica
tions that go to make up a dangerous
leader, and had at his command more
than any other Presidential aspirant
the elements of rallying the masses
and producing determination and
enthusiasm in their ranks. But the
old fox of Maine wary and cunning,
has been caught in a steal trap at last
and there he may fume and writhe in
vain, for he is firmly held. There is
not much of the give up in his nature
and he will die hard. A man of a
grasping and boundless ambition, he
had climbed high up the ladder of
fame and from that eminence the
White House and the eager
admirers from all parts of the union
that greeted his delighted vision,
seemed grand beyond compare. The
Presidential mansion was the idol of
his heart and the Mecca towards
which his foot-steps had been tending
for many years. But lo t he finds a
lion in his path, and the grim monster
threatens with growls whose purport
cannot be mistaken. Thescenein the'
committee room whe nthe startlingrev
elations of his gigantic swindles were
held up to public gaze, was described
as appaling. In rain did he writhe
and twist and call upon the damned
spot to ontjbutit would not. Already
nearly a sufficient number of States
; had declared in his favcf to ensure his
nomination, but at one blow all his
cherished hopes have been swept
away and he is made to drink the cup
of hnmilation and disappointment to
its bitter dregs. A man then who
has long been the idol of his party, to
thus deceive them when they were
working to place him in the highest
. office within the nations' gift, we pre

"Fifteen or twenty negroes killed
would likely be of benefit to the Re
publican party." These are the words
of ex-Governor Ames, a prominent
Republican, according to the sworn
statements of his own partisans, who
were present at the conference whose
deliberations led to sickening scenes
of carnage and blood.
" Vp.rv hkelv fifteen or twenty ne-
- -
ernes mav be killed, but it would
O -ml
result to the benefit of the Republican
party." So says
Adelbert Ames, the Republican ex
Governor of Mississippi.
Heal Nice Man.
It was an unexpected surprise to court
and audience to have James Saunders
limp out and make use of such kind
and courteous language as he did. He
had a seedy ldok, a bad face, and was
supposed to be some old tarantula from
the interior. As he halted before the
desk he smiled sweetly, bowed low, and
said ;
"No angel from Heaven could look
sweeter behind that desk than you do !
I have seen a good many linen vests in
my time but I never saw one set so
nicely on a man as that one does on
you !"
"Never mind my linen vest, Mr.
Grad." replied his Honor. "You are
charged with drunkenness.''
"Am I ? Dear me ? I wish I wasn't !
If there is anything I dislike it .is to be
charged with breaking the law. Is this
charge well sustained? That is, will
you have any trouble to prove it ?
I guess not, replied the court
"Well, I'm glad you won't. I was
going to say that I know I was drunk,
and I'll plead guilty. There's no use
of my lying and crawfishing around
and making you sit up there until your
back aches."
"Any exesue for being drunk ?"
"Do you wish me to have an excuse ?"
softly inquired Mr. Grad. "If you wish
me to have one I'll do so ; if you don't
want me to have one I'll be hanged
first. I came here to accommodate
you, and I'll do just as you say."
"Where do you live?"
"In several places, your Honor. I've
got a lame brother in Owosso, a cross
eyed aunt in Sasrinaw and a fat uncle
in Canada. I visit around among
them."
" What induced you to eet drunk last

The court looked at him a long time
and then motioned forhim to go out
doors.
"Thanks a thousand thanks, your
Honor. I see that you desire me to go
home. I will go. If Ijini ever in
Detroit again I shall make it a point to
come ancf see you !"
"If you do I shall make it a point to
send you to the House of Correction !"
"You wilh of course you will, and it
would be serving me just right!" was
the kind and candid rejoinder.

His Explanation of the letters and of
Why He Kept Them He Declines
to Give Them to the Committee.
Washingtox, D. C. Juno 1. The
following is an extract from Blaine's
statement :
"I called on the three gentlemen
Mr. Atkins, Mr. Fisher and Mr. Mulli
gan. At the Rigga House, and in the
parlor of Mr. Atkins I had some cons
versation with Mulligan about these
letters, and asked him to show them
to me. He did show them, with some
apparent reluctance. I said to him,
' Why, you are not afraid of my keep
ing them, are you ?' and he said No,'
and handed them to me, I looked
them all over, and discovered tnat
there was only one letter in the list
that at all bore upon the question be
fore the committee, and even that only
bv a forced construction, and not in
reality. The conversation then be
came somewhat general between the
four gentlemen, including myself, in
the room. After a little while Mr.
Mulligan went up stairs to Mr. Fisher's
room, right overhead. I was talking
with Mr. Atkins and Mr. Fisher for a
few moments, and then I started up to
Fisher's room and knocked at the
door and was admitted, and there I
talked with Mr. Mulligan for some
time. I may have been there, I think,
the best part of an hour ; but the form
that he gives the interview, about my
offerisg him a consulship and about
my being ruined, and all that sort of
thing, is mere fancy. Nothing of the
kind occurred. I talked as calmly as
am talking this moment. Very soon
said to him, 4 1 would like to see one
letter among those.' I wanted to see
the letters on which he based his tes
timony. He handed me the package
and I looked them all over, and I said
to him, as I said afterwards in the pre
sence of Mr.-Fisher and Mr. Atkins:
Now, you keep that letter which you
think bears on this matter. That is
the letter that he hag testified to this
morning. I am perfectly willing you
should keep that; but here is a mass
of ray private correspondence, cover
ing many years and detailing matters
that have nothing to do with the sub
ject of the investigation, wnicn it
would pronauiy be emuarrassing to
have published, as any man's private
correspondence would be and I don't
want it published. You ought to give
me those letters ; you have no right to
them. There are only two persons in
the world that have a right to them
one is the writer and the other the
person to whom they were written.
Now. if you will give those letter. to
Mr. Fisher I wil be abundantly satis
fied. They will then be rightful own
ership; they will be in safe hands.'
Mr. Fisher had before, himself, in my
presence, requested that they should
be given to him, in the first conversa
tion in the lower room. Mulligan re
fused. He said he did not know what
might transpire in his examination
to-day ; aud he said, with a good many
by G d's, that he was going to hold
those letters for bis protection and his
vindication. I said, 'When you get
through the examination will you give
them tome then?' lie said 'No; if
anybody impugns my motives (he pro
nounced it in that way) or in any way
questions my voice in the papers, I
shall publish these letters.' I said :
You do not think 1 would attack you
in the papers? There is nothing to
make me attaclt you in tne papers.
He said: 'Well, if anybody did he
should publish them.' I had been
running over the letters for some
time. The first time when he handed
them to me he showed reluctance, and
as I have above stated, I remarked,
'You are not afraid of my keeping
them, are you?' and he answered ' Oh,

It is of . black and white color, and

Joseph Pond. It measures 7 feet 4

height, is full 30,, inches, across the
back, girths 9 feet, and weighs 1,540
pounds. It has been fed principally on
milk, with small quantities of corn
occasionally to give solidity to the
flesh, and shows that no particular
have been taken to give it an
appearance. Its hair is
rough, its skin and flesh rough and
thick with dandruff, and it is by no
means a thing of beauty. Still it is

I had no idea of anything else than
handing them back to him until he
announced his purpose and determi
nation that, no matter who should
question his testimony or impeach or
'impun his testimony, he would publish
the letters. I said : 'These are private
letters; these are letters that relate to
matters that have no more connection
or relationship with the examination
now going on before the Judiciary
Committee than the man in the moon,
and it would be grossly unfair that

very soon Mr. Fisher came up and we

The Charges Against Mr. Kerr.
The Story of the Appointee.
Washington, May 29. Augustus P.
Green was examined on Saturday last
by the committee. The injunction of
secrecy was removed from his testi
mony to-day. He testified that he is
48 years of age; a resident of New
York city ; has no occupation at pres
ent, but has an income sufficient to
maintain him. He then testified
relative to his visits to Washington
and his appointment. He said that
after having applied to his representa
tive, who told him that he had filled
the vacancy he spoke about it to Har
ney, who told him he would procure
and appointment for a consideration ;
that ho agreed to the proposition to
pay cither three or four hundred dol
lars. Witness then went on to say
that he was introduced to Mr. Kerr by
Harney, and that Mr. Kerr asked him
to call at his rooms, which he did.
Mr. Kerr talked with him about his
military: services, and testimonials,
after which the conversation turned
upon other subjects of general inter
est. Mr. Kerr then said he would
like to have some letters from promi
nent nun in New Yerk addressed to
him personally requesting the ap
pointment. Witness replied that he
would endeavor to get them, and he
did eo on to New York. Witness tes
tified that upon his return from New
York Mr. Kerr went with him to the
War Department, where his name was
entered fer appointment. He (wit
ness) never advised Mr. Kerr about
arrangement with Harney; but Har
nev told him that he had paid the
money to Mr. Kerr.
In renlv to questions nut by the
chairman, Mr. Clymer, wifness stated
that Mr. Kerr examined him very
carefully as to his recommendations
and general capacity. Witness three
years after his appointment stopped at
rtew Albany to pay his respects to Mr
Kerr, which he would not have dne
if he had believed that Mr. Kerr re
ceived the money which he (witness
paid to Harney. He did not then be
Here, and does not now believe, that
Mr. Kerr received this money.

again in Mr. Fisher's presence, this
declaration that he would feel himself
at liberty to publish these letters at
any time he saw fit if anybody should
provoke him into wrath by any com
ments on his testimony, and owing to
the somewhat enlarged facilities in
the American press for making criti
cisms upon everybody, I found that
my private correspondence hung by
the threat of his taking offense at any
of the thousand and one paragraphs
that might be set afloat in the paper?,
and I said to him: 'under these cir
cumstances I will not give these letters
up,' and in order that he might not be
mistaken as to the ground of my ac
tion, I called Mr. Atkins from the low
er room, for I wanted to tell him the
ground on which I stood. I said : 'I
will not return these letters, because
you threaten to make a use of them
which is illegitimate, which is unfair,
which is entirely unjust; and I have
no idea that any man shall tate my
private correspondence and hold it
as a menace over my head to be used
at his beck or option for his own pur
pose or under some lady's direction.
We went down stairs, and he repeated
his statement with very great em
phasis, and I said : 'very good ; I will

everything else, is to be feared in their
