THOMPSON, Editor.
TUESDAY, MARCH 21, 1876.
The blue blood of Boston runs pale at
the very thought of the rejection of
Richard H. Dana. But it is true, never
theless, that that distinguished gentle
man was tried for and found guilty of
“literary piracy,” dn appropriating as
his own some of the foot notes of Law
rence’s edition of “Wheaton.” When
asked, upon the trial, to explain the
seeming plagiarism, Llr. Dana ac
counted for it by saying that it was
a clear case of two minds running
in precisely the same channel, and that
his choice of the language employed
was guided by his sense of its pecular fit
ness to express the Ideas. Thereupon
Mr. Lawrence produced the books to
show that the typographical errors occur
ring in his edition were exactly repro
duced in the alleged plagarized passages
of Mr. Danas work. This argument
proved to be unanswerable, and the court
directed the jury to find a verdict for the
plaintiff. The Brooklyn Argxis puts the
question whether these facts should de
bar a man from serving his country as
Minister to England.
If by “his country” is meant the Amer
ican people, we should answer in the af-
fiimative, but if Grant’s appointees are
supposed only to represent “the govern
ment,” or the Radical banditti, of which
he is the official head, we maintain that
conviction for such small offenses as
literacy piracy and perjury is to be re
garded rather as an evidence of fitness
than as a disqualification. It is a proof
at least that the man is a good Radical in
principle.
the
Ex-SeOBETARY BeiDTWELL ON THE RACK.
A Washington dispatch says: “A state
ment has been made that in 1872 Senator
Boutwell, then Secretary of the Treasu
ry, wrote to H *nry Clews, of New York,
asking a contribution of $60,000 to help
carry Pennsylvania for the Republican
ticket, and promising, by permission of
the President, that if Mr. Clews would
contribute this amount he should be fur
nished with early information of the
government gold sales and other informa
tion which would euable him to specu
late profitably in Wall street. It is al
leged that p on inent Democratic politi -
cians in New York have the original let
ter of Mr. Boutwell. The statement has
been made to leading Democratic mem
bers of Congress, but it seems too incredi
ble to warrant belief. It will probably,
however, be investigated.”
Effect of the Radical Triumph in
New Hampshire.—A Washington dis
patch says: “The New Hampshire elec
tion naturally brings the fools to the top
among the Republicans here. They exult
over the unlooked for success. But it it
hardly possible that this spirit will control
sufficiently to hold the party r in
the Senate in opposition to nr. es.. re
forms. At the same time it must be sa.d
that the Senate is not inclined kindly to
reform, and as looking very closely after
party internets. It is opposed, for in
stance, to ;the transfer of the Indian
Bureau to me War Department, because
Senators would in that case no longer
confirm F-dian agents, and it voted to
make Nc\wMexico a State the other day
because it^was supposed that this would
give two |ew Republican Senators.”
The Washington Monument and
CentenniaL
We see it stated in our Northern ex
changes that the Mount Vernon Ladies’
Association of the Union, which has
chnrge of the estate of George Washing
ton, have organized a society, in connec
tion with the Woman’s Centennial Union
of Now York, for the purpose of collect
ing an endowment fund with which to
keep in order and improve the houses and
lands and the tomb of Washington. The
amount of the proposed endowment fund
is $50,000.
If they would accomplish a truly pa
triotic work, and at the same time give
to the Centennial something of a national
and patriotic character, let them include
in their scheme the raising of a fund by
voluntary subscriptions for the comple
tion of the proposed Washington monu
ment, at the Federal capital. The sum
of three hundred thousand dollars is re
quired to complete the structure, which,
neglected and unfinished, has stood for
the last quarter of a century a testimo
nial of the ingratitude of the American
people. It is proposed by Representa
tive Mackey that three hundred thousand
dollars of the million and a half donated
to the Centennial, to be repaid out of any
money which may remain in the Centen
nial treasury after the payment of
its debts, and before any profits
shall be divided among the stockholders,
“be set apart out of the money so repaid,
to be used in the completion of the
Washington monument at the city of
Washington.” There are two objections
to Mr. Mackey’s proposition : In the first
place Congress has no more right
authority to appropriate three hundred
thousand dollars to the Washington
monument, than it had to donate the
million and a half of dollars to the Cen
tennial Joint Stock Company; and in the
seccnd place, if the monument is not fin
ished until the Centennial appropriation
is refunded it will remain unfinished until
doomeday.
There seems to us but one practicable
and appropriate way of raising the money
to complete the monument, and that is
for the women of the country to take the
matter in hand. The Centennial offers a
rare opportunity for them to reach the
public under the most favorable cir
cumstances. There would be an espe
cial fitness in such a movement by
the ladies in this Centennial year,
and at the great Centennial exhibition.
Such a movement would appeal to the
patriotic sentiment of the people of the
whole country; it would reflect honor
on the women of America, and would
afford them au opportunity to make
their influence felt in the results of the
Centennial demonstration.
CsAJus^lf of Immense Mining Frauds.
—r-A suit 'has been brought in the Su
preme Court of New York by the Union
Consolidated Mining Company of Ten
nessee against Julius E. Raht, its former
superintendent, charging him with de
franding the company, in the course of
ten years, out of one million two hundred
and seventy-five thousand dollars, and
charging his brother, Charles Raht, the
former Secretary, and John Thomas, who
was President until last November, with
conniving at and aiding in the frauds of
the first-named defendant. The method
of the alleged frauds is asserted to have
been through what is known in England
and to some extent in this country as
“ the store system,” by which claims are
paid from the company’s store in mer
chandise, instead of cash.
Still more startling exposures are threat
ened in the post-trader business. It seems
that Belknap, Brother Orville and Bab
cock did not confine their energies to the
few posts already exposed. The mine
was too rich an 1 too extended not to be
very freely worked; and as the committee
expand their inquiry they reach new
officials, both East and West. Many a
man has lived in luxury, while private
soldiers on the frontier, and officers and
their wives, have paid out of their hard
earnings the profits that were made neces
sary to support official extravagance. If
Mr. Clymer’s committee will push ahead,
regardless of friend or foe, they will ac
complish a world of good; bnt they must
spare no one for fear or favor.
Coastwise Pilotage. —The House Com
merce Committee on Friday determined
that it would be u awise to relieve the coast
wise vessels from the provisions of the
compulsory pilotage law. The pilots
represented in ] rson that to do so would
break up their business and be a lasting
injury to commerce. Vessels entering
our bays and harbors, whether from for
eign or home ports, needed the services
of pilots, and if one part of the merchant
trade was not required to employ pilots
by law why shou Id the other half do so ?
Gone Mad from Religion.
The New York Herald notices the fact
that several persons have gone insane
from religious excitement, induced by the
“exhortations and zealous and fervid ap
peals” of Moody and Sankey during
their Hippodrome meetings in that
city. The Herald says there has
been since the beginning of the re
vivals many cases of religious mania, and
mentions the fact that numbers of men
and women are brought to the station
hoas at night by the police, supposed
from their conduct to be under the influ
ence of liquor, but who prove to be labor
ing under religious frenzy or monomania,
aud are sent to the asylums or taken
charge of by their friends. The Herald
gives the following case of a colored boy
by the name cf Williams:
The most violent case yet made public
is that of the colored boy, Edward Wil
liams, who was arrested by the police
while making a charge on Henry Bergh’s
office with a rusty Revolutionary cavalry
sabre, as he charged in, waving his sabre
over his head with a frightful energy, and
shouting at the top of his voice : “Git
out quick! I am God ! Mr. Moody has
sent me from Jesus! Look out for your
skulls!” Edward Williams was secured
aft6r a hard struggle and taken to Belle
vue Hespital, where he was strapped
down on an iron bed in a cell. He became«
less violent. Here Edward stated he saw
“150,001 angels standing around the lamb,
and that good Mr. Moody was the odd
angel.” “Oh, God !” said Edward, who
is a handsome looking mulatto lad of 19
years of age, with an intelligent face, “if
I only had a celestial banjo for to kind
a-just get in and thrum alongside of the
divine Mr. Sankey, wouldn’t that be
heaven, eh?” Here the poor boy frothed at
his mouth, and tried to tear his face and
strangle himself. This is as sad a case as
could be known. Young Williams was a
porter in the employment of the Domestic
Sewing Machine Company at the corner
of Fourteenth street and Broadway, and
was universally liked and noted for his
honesty and fidelity. He became an at
tendant at the Moody and Sankey meet
ings, and after visiting there for a few
evenings he came home to his mother’s
house on Fifty-third street completely
crazy and frothing at the mouth from
sheer madness, caused by the excitement
of the several meetings. A few days since
the poor lad was taken from Bellevue
Hospital to the Lunatic Asylum on Black
well's Island, and while on the boat going
over he had a lucid interval, but on his
arrival at the asylum he became more
crazy than ever and had to be tied up, in
which state he makes night and day
mournful with his heart-piercing cries.

and farms along that road were burned.
There were some

The loss is at least half a million. Very
little insurance is reported. At 10:30 the
fire burned itself out. The boundaries of
the burnt district are: On the south. Co
lumbus street and Rogers alley; on the
north, the race-course; on the east, the
Sonth Carolina Railroad, and on the west,
St. Phillip and Percy streets.
THE LOSS.
Lateb—The estimated loss by the fire
this morning does not exceed a quarter of
million, the houses burned being chiefly
small wooden dwellings. There is much
suffering among the poor people deprived
of their homes and effects.
the total insubance
is $85,000, of which $28,000 falls on Charles
ton companies. The other known
losses are as follows : Companies rep
resented by Colonel Burnes’
agency, $12,500 ; Liverpool, Loudon
and Globe, $200 ; Commercial U nion
London, $1,400; Fire Association of Phila
delphia, $1,700; Connecticut of Hartford,
$800; .Etna of Hartford, $1,800; Manhattan

sissippi Valley of Memphis, $1,200; National
of Baltimore, $6,000; companies represented
by Honour’s agency, $9,000.
the principal scffebers
are residents of the houses burned. It is
estimated that one hundred families are
left homeless and destitute, and subscrip
tion lists have been opened for their relief.
Tho total losses, as stated, will be nigh
quarter of a million, and insurance only
$84,000, of which $27,000 falls on Charleston
companies. It is feared that the lire was
the work of an incendiary,
and it is a noteworthy fact that it was
known yesterday that in consequence of the
neap tides, the tidal drains on which the
fire department relies for water, would be
empty last night.
IN THE FIELDS.
The wind carriod the sparks and embers
half a mile aud more, and the dry grass and
pine straw in the fields on the edge of the
city burned like tiuder.
THE HOMELESS.
Early this morning these fields were
dotted with refugees, and looked like
camp-meeting ground. The city railway
cars which had been hauled up the road
were converted into temporary dwellings.
A CROP OF FIRES.
There have been seven fires during the
past forty-eight hours, bnt only to-day’s

It appears, says the New York Sun,
that in the course of the investigation
into the affairs of the Freedman’s Savings
Bank, now in progress, one of the former
officers of the swindling concern acknowl
edged that $300,000 of the deluded de
positors’ money was taken for political
use in 1872, when Grant was running for
his second term. If the whole history of
the canvass of that year could be written,
it would be the most shocking story of
wholesale fraud and corruption the coun
try has ever known. The whisky ring
exposures have afforded some light upon
the means used by the Grant party to
swell their corruption fund, though but a
small part of the truth has been made
known. Many of the worst facts never
will be proved, if the policy adopted by
Grant and Pierrepont to intimidate wit
nesses is allowed to prevail. But about
the meanest part of the whole business
was this stealing of the poor freedmen’s
savings to use for the purpose of keeping
the venal administration crowd in power,
with continued opportunities for plunder
ing ^nd oppressing the people.
“Millions in It.”—The total capital

gas companies continue to drive away
consumers, they will, at no distant day,
have to deplore the “lacking ingredient.”

CAPITAL NEWS AND NOTES.
Washington, March 20.—The Star says :
Richard H. Dana, Jr., after asking to be
heard by the 8enate Committee on Foreign
Relations, has monntod bis high-stepping
Harvard horse, and published a letter in
Boston which, had a plebiau written it,
would have been styled impertinent. He
evidently wishes to be made a martyr
of, and he will be gratified. Dana is an ac
complished, high-toned gentleman, but he
lacks common sense, and Ben, Butler is too
much for him.
Mrs. L. G. Wasson writes (at great peril
to herself, as she says,) that the Georgia
penitentiary convicts are lashed and strained
so that several have died. Pierrepont has
sent the letter to Senator Clayton, saying it
affects the United States prisoners. The
Senate Judiciary Committee will investigate
the matter.
Mrs. Kingman, wife of E. Kingman, the
life-time correspondent of the Charleston
Courier, is dead.
The north gallery of the House, known as
the small-pox gallery, is not opened till af

Bristow, before tho War Department Ex
penses Committee, testified that Mr. Groom,
of Kentucky, asked him to argue a case
before the Court of Claims. Groom, by the
oollapse of the rebellion and the failure of the
overnment to take the mules, lost $200,000.
Iristow, for a small retainer and expenses,
and a contingent fee of ten per cent., made
the argument. He had nothing beyond
this to do with the case, except introducing
Groom to the Attorney General as a gentle
man of character and standing. The argu
ment was on a question of law, not of facts.
Bristow was not in office at the time of the
argument. Judgment was rendered Jan
uary 5, 1874. February 4tb, Belknap ap
proved the claim. It was made special by
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Sawyer,
passed upon by Comptroller Broadhead, ana
$108,750 paid February 6. [Note.—This is

The thirty thousand dollar draft paid to a
person for Mrs. Bower by a New York baDk
did not belong to PendletOD, but to a Cin
cinnati bank which had discounted it for
Pendleton.
The Star says : “ There is reason to sav
that, thus far, the developments do not lul-
fill the expectations excited by the first an
nouncement.”
The resolution adopted unanimously by
the Committee of Elections to the effect
that all Congressional Districts of the United
States must be composed of continuous ter

lation, aud that the Legislature of South
Carolina, now in session, ought at once to
correct the illegal construction of the Third
Congressional District of that State, now
represented by J. L. Hoge, it is very well
understood, was intended to allow the State
the opportunity to correct the error herself,
but if the State persists in this unfair dis
tricting, there is no doubt that the commit
tee will feel bound to take the whole matter
into their own hands,and will act with
promptness and decision.

Commissioners Emmigration vs. the North
German Lloyds. These are cases arising
UDder the statutes of New York regulating
immigration. The opinion of the Court
after an elaborate review of the cases is that
the legislation is in conflict with the Consti
tution of the United States, and void.
Also 478, Chy Lung vs. the Commissioners
of Emigration, from California. The
Court says in any view of the case the law
is held void because it is in conflict with the
Federal Constitution. Judgment is re
versed with instructions to dismiss the per
sons in custody. This case involves the im
portation of Chinese women for lewd pur
poses.
The Supreme Court again decides in favor
of Mrs. Gaines. She is a citizen of New York,
entitled to have her case transferred to the

for transfer the action of the State Court

Poston, March 21.—The Herald, referring
to the labors of the Naval Investigation
Committee at Kittery Navy Yard, savi
can be stated on authority that the evidence
taken before the committee fully sustains
the charges against the institution made by
Congressman Burleigb, of the House, last
year, and reports to the contrary previously
published were entirely erroneous. The
members of the committee, Messrs. Mills of
Texas, Jones of New Hampshire,and Burleigh
of Maine, arrived in this city this morning,
aud have telegraphed £Hou. B. W. Harris,
of Massachusetts, also a member of the
committee, to meet them here. The report
of tho committee will not be made for six

it is asserted that it will implicate certain

Budget for 1877 have been distributed among
the Senators and Deputies. The revenue is
estimated at $534,400,000, and expenditures
at $533,400,000. No increase of the tax is
proposed. The preample of the Budget
says: “Our resources are not greater than
our requirements, and none of the receipts
of the Treasury can at present be spared.
The government will not avail itself of the
power to borrow $8,000,000 from the Bank
ot France. *On tlie contrary it Swill be
able to refund $5,000,000 by anticipatory
>ayment. The treasury will have complete-

will set free $50,000,000 yearly. It will be
only possible to propose a serious reduc
tion of taxes after this is accomplished.” j||
The Republican Senators will introduce a

CAPITAL NOTES.
Washington, March 20.—The Senate
Railroad Committee had a full meeting this
morning, and took into consideration the
various propositions looking to the con
struction of a Pacific Railroad on tbe 32d
parallel of latitude. The Texas Pacific,
known as the Scott bill, was considered in
all its bearings, as also the alternative
proposition presented by Mr. Hamilton, of
Texas, to build a road with no further sub
sidy than a land grant. Some definite ac
tion will probably be taken on Monday
next, to which time the subject was post
poned.
In the Supreme Court, the case of Terry
vs. Tubmou, error to the Circuit Court for
the District of Georgia, was decided. Tbe
court affirm & judgment below dismissing
the case, which was from action to make
the stockholders of a bank personally liable
for its circulation bills, on tbe ground that
a creditor cannot maintain separate action
in seeking to obtain his entire debt to tbe
possible exclusion of others similarly sit
uated, the judgment beiDg that proper pro
ceeding Is in equity, where all the claims
can be presented, all liabilities of stockhold
ers ascertained and a just distribution made.
[Special Dispatch to the Evening Post.]
Washington, March 17.—Evidence has
been discovered showing conclusively
that thirty thousand dollars of the money
received by Pendleton for getting the
Kentucky Central Railroad claim allowed
went into the hands of Mrs. Bowers,
now Mrs. Belknap, but was not paid to
her directly.
The evidence already taken shows that
Pendleton bad the amount of the claim
divided into three Treasury warrants, one
of which, amounting to thirty thousand
dollars, was endorsed by him and made
payable to the National Park Bank of
New York. In tracing the last named
draft a clue was obtained which, being
followed, resulted in finding what is con
sidered conclusive proof that the money,
after passing through the hands of two
persons, was paid over to Mrs. Bowers in
person in the city of New York.
A prominent Republican lawyer who
has taken much interest in this matter
and has had it thoroughly probed assures
your correspondent that the case is a
very clear one, and that it will be an easy
matter for Mr. Clymer’s committee to get
at the facts if they are so disposed. If
the committee do not push the inquiry in
the direction indicated he 6ays that other
hands will take hold of it and bring ail
the facts before the public.
The same gentleman says he knows the
names of the persons through whose
hands this money passed, and tho time
and place where the money was paid
over to Mrs. Bowers, who took it and
placed it in the hands of Mr. Caleb Marsh
for safe keeping and investment. Of all
this, your correspondent’s informant
says Mr. Pendleton must have known,
and his testimony before the committee
was very ingenious, and so adroitly
given as to mislead and not bring out all
the facts. He swore that he had not paid
to the Secretary of War, or any member
of his family, or any other person for
him, directly or indirectly, any consider
ation for his action, but he did not tes
tify that he had not paid to Mrs. Bowers
directly or indirectly money for herself
for her assistance. The money was not
as will be shown, paid directly to Mrs.
Bowers, but to other persons, who paid
it to her.
