Well, suppose that he did not, and nobody else did, how does he account for the fact that he and the managers of the road charged for construction more than the actual cost, making a clear steal of $50,000,000? This little item cannot be wiped out with a negative. Mr. Ames, a sworn -member of Con gress, the moving spirit in the Credit Mobiler, enters into a conspiracy, to defraudj the people .of the United States 'out of $50,000,000. He and every member Of Congress, who re ceived any of the proceeds of that infamous job, are not only bribed but perjured.. The Credit Mobiler was a swindle from its conception- a scheme to build the road at the public? cost, and steal all they could, besides. ' , r The denial, of v a man who would and did remain silent not silent only, but supporting and ' using hi$ influ ence to secure the support of others, as a member of Congress, to this questionable; scheme is not Worth the paper on which it is written. His oath has no more value than that of an impeached witness. There stands the fact of fraud on the people in the cost of the road, the fact that by cor rupt legislation the claim of the Gov ernment was placed as a secondary consideration, and beyond possible payment, thus stealing the whole val ue of the road. Mr. Oakes Ames knew all about this, and the plan by which it was done ; and yet he would have the people believe that he bribed nobody. If he did not it was be cause . there were so many Congress men directly interested in the game that there was no need of more votes. The man who will perjure himself and prostitute his f unctions as a pub lio servant to enrich : himself and friends will lie, and swear to his lie, to cover his iniquity. Tho evidence is strong against Mr.j Oakes Ames. His own letters show it; the testimony of parties who were interested in his schemes shows it. That there may be some errors of de tail nobody denies, but that the charges against Ames and his accom plices are substantially true every un prejudiced mind must admit. " THE HE ATIIEN CIIINEE." ) Within a few years the Chinese have been building up a steam navy, and now possess twenty steamships adapted for war purposes. This fleet was originally designed to suppress piracy In in the: Chinese waters, and 'At ' 1 - II ' i nc vjpseis are oi smau size, varying from two hundred to eight hundred tons. These steamers were built in China, arid are manned and officered by Chinese. The Government, bow ever, has recently resolved to increase the "size of the war 'vessels, ariirt a ' snort, nme since a irigate or,, three thousand tons, built by Chinese work -" mrm. wna iifriaaf nil xr ImiYMtVinl rrVi i frigate is to be armed with Krupp's . powerful improved guns, and other vessels of a fumuar -class are said to . be building. ;'. ' - ;"x-.' The .Chinese, are also about to com mence tho construction of iron-clads, and an experienced architect from Europe, ia on Jus. way to dr aw the de signs for, and superintend the build ing of iron-clad 'frigates. " The" Chi nese navy is armed by picked seamen and by marines trained under foreign drill instructors. The fighting men . . are armed witft improved new rifles. and the guns on the vessels are made and mounted in the modern style. Experiments in the use of torpedoes are also in progress. v These warlike preparations, it is surmised, have some connection with an attack upon Japan at the first con venient opportunity. In case the threatened war between Corea and Japan should break out, it is believed that China will aid the former coun try. China, it is stated, views with jealousy the alliances that Japan is now making with the western powers, and is determined to be provided with a modern navy and with all the recent apparatus of war in case of an emer gency. It is admitted on all hands that a naval war with China would not now be. a fight against clumsy wooden iunks. And it will be seen' that it is not only " for ways that are dark and tricks that are vain" that the "Heathen Chinee is peculiar." TIMELY TOPICS. The WenUrn Celt, published in St. Louis, Mo., pays this tribute to the Liberal candi date : " When we threw up Grant, we did so because we felt that Greeley was a better friend to our countrymen than Grant. Nor shall we ever repent the step we have taken. We feel a pride in being the conscientious champion of a man whom we know to have stood up for our country and our race. In the language of a fellow-countryman, we feel that Horace Greeley is, of all Ameri cans, the best friend Ireland ever had. In 1854, when Henry Wilson, in the city of Philadelphia, was Chairman of a Know- Nothing Committee., whose text was, No Irish, Germans, French, or other foreign ers need apply, Librae Greeley was receiv ing the Irish emigV'ants on the shores of America with a ceid miUefaUtlieJ' " ft According to official statistics, Paris re presents one-twentieth of the total importa tion of the United-States. During a period of eight years, from 1863 to 1872, the mer chandise received from Paris amounted to $219,190,091. In 1809 it reached the sum of $30,103,787, but owing to the events of the last two years, it fell in 1870 to $26, 696,463, and in 1872 to $25,975,001. On the other hand, the first quarter of the cur rent year shows a very lively revival of af fairs. . From the 1st of January to the 31st of March, last, the importations were $11, 138,746, which promises for the full year a total amount of not less than forty millions of dollars. General William Birney, of Florida, son of the old-time Abolitionist candidate for the Presidency, has written a strong letter, giving the reasons which compel him to take sides against Grant and in favor of Greeley. He has resided in Florida since the war, and has seen enough of the disas trous working of carpet-bag rule to con vince him of the necessity of overthrowing the corrupt organization which fosters and sustains it. In many counties, says Gener al Birney, the taxation amounts to the en tire rental of the property. Seven years rule of these extravagant gentlemen is as much as any State can afford to endure in the interests of loyalty and Grantism. One of the "Washington fire companies owns a remarkable dog. He is of the New foundland breed, large and heavily built. His coat is full and shaggy, and of a very dark brown. Whenever an alarm of fire is sounded, the dog listens attentively for a moment until the number of bells indicates the locality. He rushes, barking furiously, to the stable of the horses, which is the basement of the engine-house, and by the time he gets there the horses are out, and he takes his position at their head and runs to the engine. When it starts he keeps just ahead, turning all the corners correctly and barking time to the ringing of the bell. A young lady of Bamberg, South Caro lina, has cultivated twenty-two acres of cot ton during the past spring and summer," with no other assistance than one negro girl, whom she hired for the year for fifty- six dollars. The young lady did the flee ing, while the girl did the ploughing. The ground was manured with four tons of Wando fertilizer, and, it is estimated, will yield twelve bales of cotton. In addition to the cotton the young lady will make an abundance of corn, peas and tomatoes, and enough sugar and syrup to last her for three years. She is only nineteen years of age, and this is her first attempt to make a crop. The Minneapolis (Minn.) Evening Times says: "Mr. Greeley -will receive in this State substantially the whole of the Demo cratic vote, and nearer one-third than one- quarter of the Republican' vote, as it has been heretofore called. The Germans are for him to a man; the Scandinavians are coming to his support every day in alto gether unexpected numbers; . the Irish are three to one for him, and no one nationali ty, as such, can Ikj said to be opposed to him." jf- ' The introduction of torpedoes into mod ern warfare has evoked much effort in the way of methods f or counteracting their agency. It is suggested that if the bottoms of vessels most exposed to torpedoes be con structed with double cells, the lower one being filled with water; this would act as a buffer, and distribute the blow of concus sion and render it less injurious to the fab ric of the vessel . ( The memory of James Gordon ;Bennett, Sr., is to be preserved by the erection of a handsome monument in Greenwood Ceme tery, Brooklyn, to cost ear $200,000. The shaft, of white marble,' is- to be - supported by a base elaborately sculptured wltfr' sym bols of journalism. The inscription -win be simply, "James Gordon Bennett,'! with tiie age, place of birth, and the title, "Foiyv der of the New York Herald,w POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS, Eight .thousand colored voters is the number now set down as members of the Greeley and Brown clubs in Maryland. Only seven out of three hun dred German voters in Oconto, Wis., are for Grant. That proportion will never car ry the election. Said an old blade, delegate to the Pittsburg convention : " We do not pro pose to shake hands, but to shake our fists across the bloody chasm." Senator Chandler says there are no Liberals in Michigan, yet a Greeley and Brown Club numbering 149 members has been organized in the little village of Hart land in that State. In Montana the Democratic Liberal victory is complete for Congress man. Last year the Republican majority was 413. This year the Democrats carry the territory by 819 a gain of 732. Gen. Henry Bertram, command er of the famous 20th Wisconsin infantry, is President of the Oak Grove, Dodge coun ty, Greeley Club. He was formerly a Re publican, but like the great mass of Ger man Republicans, he supports the Liberal movement. Gen. James D. Morgan, of Illin- ois, who commanded the 2nd division, 14th corps, and, it was considered at the time, served Sheridan's army on an occasion of great emergency, and until recently an ar dent supporter of Grant, is out flat-footed for Greeley. A son of the late Joshua R. Giddings, the life-long Abolitionist, is Chair man of the Liberal Republican Committee of Ashtabula county, Ohio. He has enroll ed the names of more than a thousand Liberals in Ashtabula, which is one of the strongest Republican counties in Gen. Gar field's District. The following gentlemen will speak in Pennsylvania during the present week: Ex-Gov. Seymour and Gov. Hoff man of New York, Senator A. G. Thurman and the Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton of Ohio, The Hon. J. B. Beck of Kentucky, the Hon. John B. Stockton of New Jersey, Senator Trumbull, and the Hon. John A. McClernand of Illinois, Senator Schurz of Missouri, and Gen. Banks of Massachusetts. Grant s btraisrht-outs have a hard time of it. They expend the Renomi- nation funds liberally to get up conventions and nominate candidates, but in some un accountable way the nominees persist in always resigning. It was on Thursday last that 15 doughty Bourbons, with books well stiffened with Senator Morton's greenbacks, met at Indianapolis and nominated with much flourish a "Pure Democratic" ticket with Mr. A. P. Egerton for Governor. The gentleman thus doubtfully honored repudi ates with disgust all connection with the movement and will not allow his name to be used by the malcontents.

Union, of the 18th inst., has the following ac count of the mysterious .death of a former citizen of Charleston : "Early last Tuesdav morning it was learned that the body of Mr. John T. Hen- cry had been found floating in the St. John's Iiiver, near the railroad wharf, with the whole of his face blown in and a larsce hole through the top of his head. -J Mr. Henery and family consisting of a wife and three 'daughters-: came to this city three years ago from Charleston, b.4C, where he had spent about twenty-five years of his life. Mr. Henerey was a native of Beau fort, b. C, and was about torty-hve years of age. (Jn .Monday morning last the de ceased left his home in Lavilla about 4 o'clock, taking with him his Spencer rifle, pistol and cartridges, lie said nothing to his family, and they thought that he was going to Ins tar ni across the river, as was often his cus tom. Nothing more was heard or seen of him until luesday morning, when his floating body was discovered bv the mate of the schooner (juy K. Phelps, then moored to the railroad w'harf. Upon the discovery of the corpse, it wras hauled upon some steps leading to the wharf by Joseph Jlar- zyck, of this city, and others, About 5 o clock 31onday morning a man's hat, coat and gun had been found upon a piece of timber which projected over the river from a pile of lumber on the wharf, by the mate of the schooner II. A. Hunt, also moored at the same wharf. Connect ing all the above facts, it was the uni versal conclusion that the life of Mr. Henerey had been taken by his own hands. Liberal ITIoetlns at Brooklyn, New York Speech of AV. XT. Sanndern, of Baltimore. At the Liberal meeting at Brook lyn, on Wednesday night, at which it is said there was not less than 40,000 people present, V . U. Saunders, col ored, of Baltimore, was loudly called for. He came forward, and, speak ing particularly upon the political tendencies of his race, said " I am here to show that there are some colored men who understand mat tms is, or snoiud be, a govern ment of the people, and not such a centralized despotism as Grant is making it. Y e have been told by Grant s organs that the colored vote would be cast solidlv for him; but I tell you that one-third of mv race in this country will vote for Greeley and Brown. J know this from actual observation. We have been told that if we elect Greeley we shall again be reduced to slavery. At first some ot us believed this; but our eyes arc now opened, and, Wendell Phillips to the contrary, Ave are now satisfied that Greeley is the best friend the colored man ever had." In speaking O.f General JJix, Air. baunders saitl that " he had been everything to everybody, and nothing very long to anybody, and that he never would be willing to die unless assured that there were politics in Heaven, and that he could have some small office among the angels." Steam-Car In Politics. Gov. Warmoth, of Louisiana, hap pening to be in New York, his oppo nents conceived the shrewd idea of having the Lieut. Governor call a meet ing of the Legislature and impeach him, or, at least, assume the functions of the Governorship long enough to sign a corrupt election-bill, passed by the last Legislature, the object of which is to take control of the elec tion out of the hands of the present iairiy-oonstuutea isoara and turn it over to President Grant's immediate representatives. Lieutenant-Gover nor Pinchback wras also North. He was secretly summoned and he secret ly started. Twenty-four hours later Governor Warmoth was advised of the impending danger. In thirty-six he too was on his way, but the War moth management was, as it has gen erany nroveu, mesnrewaer. iie con trived to make closer connections than Pinchback, and. where; there were delays contrived to secure s'pe ciai trains. .jThe result of it was that .he got into New Orleans precisely at tne same time with the would-be act ing Governor.
