A dispatch ©l the sth from Balti
more, aava: Forty armed and
mounted men raneackod all Balti
more county lat night searching for
Howard Cooper, the young man who
feionieiulv assaulted Mi** Katie
Gray, the twemv-yaar-old daughter
of Mr. D. C. Gray, farmer near
Rockland. The porauera are all
young farmers and they carry with
them twenty feet of half-inch hi-mp,
with which they do not hesitate
to say they will hang Ceoper as soon
as they can catch him The sheriffs
officers are with them, but it ia not
probable that they can successfully
arrest the venttasuce of the pursuing
party. Cooper’s crime was attended
with most atrocious circumstances.
The lady is a bright and pretty young
woman, a achool teacher, and the
bells of'he rural district in which
she residea. She was educated at
the Baltimore Female college, and
her character Is irreproachable. Yes
terday afternoon about 2:30 o’clock.
Mis* Katie Gray in company with
her sister, Mias Susie Gray went to
lhe railroad station one mile from
the tioii-e where the latter young la
dy tu„*. a train. Mis. Katie thou
started homeward alone. She had
proceeded but a short distance, when
in a particularly retired spot she
suddenly discovered a eolornd man
getting over the fence, ilia looks
alarmed her, and sl.e l-egan to walk
on more quickly. He then accelera
ted his own pace and cauie up wi ll
ber. Than she gave one last d--
pairing shriek. Her very large
Scotch shepherd dog, however, heard
bar cry, and sprang across an inter
vening cornfield at breakneck speed.
Plunging down the ravine the dog
dashed in the direction of his mitt
i ess, who caught sight of him at he
moment the club was raised in the
eir. She ran to one side and with her
last effort ran toward her protector.
Cooper followed, hot Hie dog sprang
between them, while the girl shrieked
incessantly. Becoming alarmed
Cooper threw ids club at the dog
and fled down the ravine. The gdrl
tottered across the cornfield, falkting
twice en route end the barking or
the dog celled Ihe family tf the front
porch where her lnsenU9te body was
found tying. The father seiaed his
shotgun at and riding into the village,
called for volifhtecri to search for
the culprit/ Every able bodied man
responded. Cooper ia believed to
sti'l he in Hie vicinity.
About 6 o’clock last night the sher
iff and his depnfy traced Cooper to a
hut situated in the woods near Tow
eow. One approached from the rear
and the other from the front. The
night being dark, Coepcr managed to
csct.pe by jumping from a side win
dow. Elgin shets were fired at his
retreating figure without offect.Hewns
traced for along distance and then
his track was lost. In the house
was found his cap and vest, both of
which wore full of bleed. To an in
mate Cooper said that he had accom
plished the purpose of the assault.
(MSN LEV'S SURRENDER.
Osnsrsl Grant's Reception of General Lee
Deeorlbed by a Wltneee.
Colettel Cliarlcs Marshall, chief of
General Lee's staff, speaking of the
surrender at Appomattox.,and of the
meetingofGcneralsGrant Lee, says:
When shown into the room, Gener
al Grant advanced amt shok handi
with General Lee. 'l'lie federal com
mander win in nudruai uniform, anti
without side arms, whi e General
Lee win in lull uniform. General
Grant by way ol apology to General
Lee for ruining without his arms,
said that his wurd was witli his bag
gage, and because of a desire to reaeli
the place lor the conference he had
hastened on in undress uniform.
This was the only al u-ion to the
sword that was made at the interview.
A "for the terms of surrender were set
tled, General Grant explained that lie
was advised that General late's forces
had a number of federal prisoners,
who like their captors, were out of
rations. General Sheridan, remarked
that he could supply 25,000 rations.
General Grant gave au order,
to General Lee's commissary.
After the interview Gener
al Lee asked for General Williams,
aud thanked that officer for the kind
ness shown to his sum. General Cu
tis Lee, who had been raptured sev
eral days before. W hen General
Lee and Colonel Marshal rode otf
the federal officers filled the front
porch. Colonel Marshal is not sure
that General Grant was among there,
fur his thoughts were busy with oth
er matters at the time.
In Macon county, Missouri, within
the last uiue years, ten men hare
been murdered and no man bat
been bung. Each of thu slayers is

GEM. LAWTONS CASE.
The Washington City Evening
Star, of the Bth saye; Gen. Lawton,
of Georgia, called upon the President
yesterday and said that he wanted at
the outset to relieve the Administra
tion of all possibility of embarrass
ment arising from his appointment to
the Russian mission. He said he
wanted the President to proceed in
the case without any regard to him
(Lawton) personally. Hia desire was
that the President should Ret just as
if Ute appointment had never been
tendered. General Lawton also aaw
Secretary Bayard and assured hltn
that no personal ambition of his stood
in the way of the Administration re
lieving itself of embarrassment if any
was to nroceed from the appointment.
Gen. Lawton was pardoned by Pres
ident Johnson the year before the
Fourteenth Amendment to the Con
stitution went into effect, and he did
not consider that the provisions of
that amendment applied to him. He
did not regard the amendment as re
troactive, und in tills opinion Attor-
ney-General Garland, Mr.Pholps and
other distinguished lawyers have con
curred. It was because Gen. Lawton
did not regard Congressional action
as necessary to relieve him of political
disabilities.after haviug the Pcrsiden s
pardoned, that lie failed to ask for
such relief. Gen. Lawton had a con
ference with the President this after
noon.
It Is said that Jlou. Bam Randall
lias worked himself down since (lie
adjournment of the House of Itcp
rcsentatives hunting up offices for
his personal friends and supporters.
The Philadelphia itecord offers him
some of Jobs comfort, which may
(end to alleviate the pain caused by
his'carkuncle. It says: "The right
eous Job was smitten with sore boils
and learned the value of patience.
While Mr. Randallis similarly afflict
ed he may recall with satisfaction that
the officeastill holdout, and it will
be nt'Mitlia ere Congress meets again.
Yet patience may not achieve her
perfect work ivuuat Washington.’’

A Cripple Restored
Some two year* ago 1 received a

He was one of the poorest creatures
I havo ever scen-nothing but skin

Scrofular, which had attended lilin
from hi* birth. About eighteen
month ago I commenced giving him
Swifts Specific. After several hot-
ilea had been takeu and no visible
results to be seen, I began to despair,
but continued tbe medicine. At last
signs of improvement became appar
ent,‘and from thawiate to tbe preaent
there lias been constant improve
maul in both body and mind, lie is
now about fourteen years old, aud it
one of the brightest boys I have ever
keuwu. 1 honestly believe that he
will ultimately outgrow the effects of
this loathsome disease under the in

were treated tome two years ago
with S. S. S. show no symptoms of re

By lack of open air exercise, and
the want of sufficent care in the mat
ter of diet, the wholo physical mech
anism often becomes impaired during
tbe wiuler. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is
the proper remedy to lake m the
Spring of the year to purify the
blood, invigorate the system, excite
the liver to action, and restore the
healthy tone and vigor.
Mr. T. C. A., or Atlanta, desires to
say that “I have been a constant suf
ferer with G. and G. for over two
years; have failed to secure relief
from any source until I obtained two
bottles of Kinch which effected an en
