She fgamittg J> H> COT'CMs, Proprietor. No, 3 WHITAKER STREET, (MORNING NEWS BUILb W. T, 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. BY TURKU THE HORNING NEWS THE FIRE FIEND. DESTRUCTIYE CONFLAGRATION IN CHARLESTON. ESTIMATED LOSS A QUARTER OF A MILLION. HUNDREDS OF HOMELESS FAMILIES OPERATIONS OF BANDS'OF NEGRO THIKVES AND ROBBERS. The Result of Incendiarism. [Special Telegram to the Morning News.] Chablebton, March 20. A fire broke out at 3 o’clock this morning, on the corner of King street and Rogers al ley. Thele was no water in the neighbor hood, and the wind was BLOWING A GALE from the southeast, consequently the whole block, from Colnmbus to Line street, on the east and west sides of King street, was soon destroyed. About 7 a. m. the fire crossed Line street, the sparks and embers being carried by tho gale three-quartere of a mile up King street road, and the houses, fences and farms along that road were burned. There were some HEART-RENDING SCENES?^ on the streets. Bands of negroes robbed and sacked every bouse to which they could gain admittance. Later in the morning Mayor Cnnningham took command, and some order was restored. Hundreds of per sons are HOMELESS AND PENNILESS. 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 of New York, $5,000; Atlantic of New York $3,500; Phcenix of Hartford, $2,600; Virginia Home, $2,000, New York Home, $1,500; Georgia Home, $1,500; Continental of New York, $3,800; Royal of Liverpool, $600, Mis 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 was serious. Sixth Congressional District. Col. Clifford Anderson, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, has is sued a call for the appointment of dele gates from the respective counties com posing the Sixth Congressional Distrkt, to appoint delegates to s cc~ ‘"’™ be held in Milledgeville on the . iaj of April, to take action relative to luj fir- pointment of delegates to the National Democratic Convention, which assembles in St. Louis in June next. Contraction is making rapid headway in Maine. The Casco National Bank, of Portland, the oldest and largest banking institution in the State, which has a capi tal stock of $800,000, is surrendering all its circulation except $4.5,000 against the $50,000 of bonds which it is in any case obliged to keep on deposit m Washing ton, and other banks in the State are contemplating tho same course.

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 employed in gas manufacture in New York is $19,750,000, and the average dividends are thirty-five per cent. At thirty-five per cent, there is millions in it sure enough; but if by extortion the gas companies continue to drive away consumers, they will, at no distant day, have to deplore the “lacking ingredient.” While Pastor of the Canton Church, New Jersey, some years ago, I temporarily lost my voice, aud was in consequence unable to preach lor nearly a year.

Richard Henry on his High-stepping Harvard Horse. TREATMENT OF THE GEORGIA PEN ITENTIARY CONVICTS. Irregularities in the Kittery Navy Yard. 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 ter prayer. Admission to the other gallery by ticket is easily obtainable by decently- clad people. Ex-Senator Stewart, of Emma Mine fame, is here. Contracts for fine government printing papfr show about a cent per pound declme. The trea mry will receive fourteen tons of silver this week. 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 unusually good time.] 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.

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. tweed’s property. the supreme court.

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. GREATLY REDUCED PRICES.
