“Pacific Mail Misery.”
ANOTHER PANIC IN WALL STREET—PACIFIC MAIL
MUSIC IN THE AIB—SUDDEN DOWNWARD
RUSH OF THE STOCK—STRANGE
STORIES ABOUT STOCKWELL
AND THE HOWE SFW-
INO MACHINE
PROPERTY.
Once more that pandemonium of the bulls
and bears—Wall street—has been agitated to
its lowest depths, and this time again tho
trouble has come t » the surface in Pacific
Mail stock, known on the streets as “p. m.,’
or as it is wittily translated by the knowing
ones, “Perpetual Misery.” Erie stock was at
one time the great source of trouble and toil
in Wall street, but since the change of
management in that road all the boldest ope
rators have deserted “Erie” for **Pacific
Mail,” and now from day to day we hear ot the
most astonishing revelations, coming from all
quarters, in regard to the officers and direct
ors of this steamship company. Many of
these revelations are, of course of a “bogus”
nature, and are fomented and started and fed
by the brigands and guerillas of the street,
who are watching, like
THE EVIL SPIRIT,
for those whom they may devour or ruin in
pocket and reputation.
Yesterday a very strange rumor was started
on the street about A. 13. Stockwell, who is at
present the President of tho Pacific Mail
Steamship Company. The rumor, which
could not be verified to any extent, or yet
denied, on inquiry being made, was to this
effect:—It is stated that Mr. Stockwell, who
is President of the Panama Railroad, as well
as of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
the company being the owners of the rail
road, had used 100,000 shares of the stock of
the Panama Railroad Company, and as a
collateral security had given to tho Pacific
Mail Steamship Company a mortgage on
THE HOWE SEWINO MACHINE COMPANY’S WORKS
at Bridgeport Conn., of which Stockwell
was reputed to be the owner. The stock of
the Panama Railroad was valued at some
thing like 120 then, and the total indebted-
! ness of Stockwell became about $1,140,000.

The Louisiana Usurpation.
From the New York World, fifth u!t
We congratulate the people of Louisiana
that their case has in effect come before thc
Supreme Court of the United States and been
decided in their tavor. From Durell’sinjunc
tion to Grant’s approbation, from corner
stone to cupola, the proceedings of the Ad
ministration are unwarranted in law. To
show this is let us recite the facts.
John McEnery and William Pitt Kellogg
were rival candidates in 1872, for the Gover
norship of Louisiana, and by the returns un
der the State law McEnery was elected.
Kellogg appealed from this decision to one
Durell, a Federal Judge in N
| _____ _$cw Orleans, bas
ing his appeal on the~ statement llmt a large
number of negroes were deprived of their
right to vote throughout the State, and that
if they had been allowed to vote they
would have voted for him, and he, (Kel
logg.) would have had a majority of the
votes cast and been elected. Durell sustained
this plea, and decided that Kellogg and not
McEnery, was the Governor of Louisiana.
McEnery denying the legality of all this, and
still claiming to be Governor, an appeal was
taken to Casar. Casar, represented—a long
way off—by Grant, decided that Darull was
right, and that Kellogg was Governor. Mc
Enery, still unwilling to yield, brought tbe
matter before Congress, but Congress failed
to act; and there until recently the case stood.
But now we have a decision, or rather two
decisions, of the Supreme Court of the United
States, putting a new face tn the matter.
Kellogg’s authority for appealing to Durell
against McEnery’s election, and Durell’s
authority for reversing that election and de
claring Kellogg Governor instead of McEnery,
are found in section twenty-three of an act
of Congress entitled “An act to enforce tho
right of citizens of United States to vote in
the several States of this Union, and for other
purposes,” approved May 31st, 1870, which
reads thus:
“That whenever any person shall be de
feated or deprived of bis election to any
office, except elector of President or Vice
President, representative or delegate in Con
grats, or member of a State Legislature, by
reason of the denial to any citizen or citizens
who shall offer to vote of the right to vote, on
account of race, color, or previous condition
of servitude, bis right to hold and enjoy such
office and the emoluments thereof, shall not
be impaired by such denial; and such petition
may bring any appropriate suit or proceed
ing to recover possession of such office, and
in cases where it shall appear that the sole
question touching the title to such office
arises out of the denial of the light to vote to
citizens who so offered to vote, on account of
race, color, or previous condition of servi
tude, such, suit or proceeding may be insti
tuted in the Circuit or District Court of the
United States of the Circuit or District in
which such person resides. And said circuit
or district court shall hare concurrently with
the State courts jurisdiction thereof so far as
to determine the rights of the parties to such
office by reason of the denial of the right
guaranteed by the fifteenth article of amend
ment to the Constitution of the United States,
aod secured by this act.”
The question arises then, where does
Congress get the power to make this the
law ? It is claimed that the authority is
found in the Fifteenth Amendment which
roads thus:
“Section 1. The right of citizens of the
United States to rote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or by any State
on account of race, color, or previous condi
tion of servitude.
“Section 2. The Congress shall have pow
er to enforce this article by appropriate leg
islation.”
As the sting of the scorpion resides in his
tail, the scope of this amendment lies in its
closing words. What is “appropriate legis
lation?*’ Is it such legislation as Congress
shall in its discretion deem appropriate, or
*ucli legislation as shall be appropriate to the
body of the amendment only ? The Supremo
Court of the United States has just decided
the latter. Congress can only p;iss such acts
to enforce the' Fifteenth Amendment as are
legally appropriate, and the Supreme Court
has power to say what acts are legally
appropriate. As respects tho sec
tion above quoted, under which all the trouble
in Louisiana bos arised, the decision of the
Supreme Court is in effect that that section is
not appropriate legislation, and by conse
quence is no legislation at all. Being thus
nail and void, all that Durell has done and
Grant confirmed under it, goes for nothing.
The particular reason why it goes for nothing
is this. The Fifteenth Amendment declares
that no State shall deny or abridge the right
of citizens of the United States to vote on ac
count of race, color or previous condition of
servitude. There is n thing in the amend
ment about any person denying or
abridging tbe right. In its decision as
announced on the lllh instant, the Su
preme Court txpressly says “it is a State
that to be dealt with.’ If A (white) there
fore, knock B (black) down on his way to tbe
polls, and send him home with a cracked
crown so that he loses his vote, thcie is no
case presented for Congressional interposi
tion. A must be left to tho State law for his
punishment. But if tho State in which A
and B reside discriminate in the matter of
suffrage in favor of men of As race and
against men of B’s race the Fifteenth Amend
ment is violated and Congress may legislate
to|enforce that article. Now in the case of the
State of Louisiana there is no State law|denying
or abridging tbe rights of negro voters. To
tbe contrary, the State Constitution concedes
andfrecognizes to tbe fullest extent all that
tbe Fifteenth Amendment purports to pro
tect. Thus title 1, article 2, reads as follows
“All persons, without regard to race, color,
or previous condition, born or naturalized in
the United States, and subject to the jurisdic
tion thereof, and re&identsjof this State for one
year, are citizens of this State. Tbe citizens
of this State owe allegiance to the United
States, and this allegiance is paramount to
that which they owe to the State. They shall
enjoy the same eivil, political and public
rights and privileges, and be subject to the
same pains and penalties.”
And title 6, article 100, reads:
“ Members ct the General Assembly, and
all other officers, befoie they enter upon the
duties of their offices, shall take the following
oath or affirmation: I, (A. B.) do solemnly
swear (or offlnn) that I accept tho civil and
political equality of all men, and agree not
to attempt to deprive any person or persons,
on account of race, color, or previous condi
tion, of any political or civil right, privilege,
or immunity enjoyed by any other class of
iaen,” etc., etc.
The State of Louisiana, then, offering no
opposition to the Fifteenth Amendment, an
act of Congress to enforce that amendment
has no application to that State. Nor can
any such act have any application to individ
uals in the State, for tbe only enforcement
act Congress is qualified to pass is one against
the State. If the State does not resist the
Fifteenth Amendment, Congress cannot pro
ceed against such individuals as do resist
Congress has all its power in the premises
from the Fifteenth Amendment, and the Fif
teenth Amendment begins and ends, with
the States. It has nothing to do with persons,
and when Congress assumed to legislate
against individuals under color of enforcing
it such legislation is w ithout authority, un
constitutional, null and void. The enforce
ment act of May 31, 1870, under which Durell,
Kellogg, and Grsnt have committed their dev
iltries, is legislation of this kind. It assumes
to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment by pro
ceeding against individuals, and in its decis
ions of tbe 14th and 15th instant the Bupreme
Court of the United States decides that the
only enforcement power Congress has under
the Fifteenth Amendment is one against State.
Washington, May 3, 1873.
The will of the late Hon. James Brooks has
been admitted to probate in the office of the
Register of W ills, and an exemplified copy
made, to be filed in the Surrogate’s office at
New Y'ork, where the executor will give the
necessary bond. The will is written on parch
ment and covers two pages, and was executed
April 28, 1873, in the presence cf A. Y. P.
Garnett, M. D.; E. McLeod and Henry Gar
nett. A codicil thereto, made April 30, two
days after, covers the third page. His signa
ture to both shows that but little of tbe bodily
strength, which was bis feature in life, was
left to him when bequeathing his worldly
possessions. He bequeaths as follows:
To his son, James Wilton Brooks, his right,
title and interest in and to one-half of the
New Y’ork Evening Express; also one-half
interest in the Express building, No. 23 Park
row. Also all the books in the room known
as the new library, in his residence, No. 3G3
Fifth avenue, New Y’ork.
To bis wife, Mary Louisa Brooks, bis house,
No. 363 Fifth avenue, New Y’ork, with all the
furniture therein: also $100,000 in land grant

dition she renounces her dower right in the
personal and real estate in Park row. To
her also he bequeaths his horses and car
riages.
To William Tracy, a lawyer in New York,
in trust for his daughter Virginia, all his real
estate in Washington, including his house,
No. 1,813 F street, with furniture therein;
also thirty-two $1,000 income bonds of the
Union Pacific Railroad; also thirty-five
$1,000 first mortgage bonds of tbe same road.
To his daughter, Mary Ncilson, five East
ern division Kansas bonds of $1,000 each,
and $3,500 in the St. Louis, Chillicothe aud
Omaha Railroad bonds, to hold the same free
from tho control of her husband. To her
hn*band, Charles H. Neilson, twenty S1,000
first mortgage Union Pacific Railroad bonds,
on condition that he defend all bis other
property against suits instituted by the United
States or other parties.
The sum of $5,000 due him by his brother,
Dr. George W. Brooks, of New Y’ork, is de-
ised for the purpose of paying the mortgage
n his house to that amount in this city.
All his other property, personal or mixed, | Stockwell it is alleged, made a series of notes
he bequeaths to his son, James Wilton Brooks,
aud names as his executor William Tracy, of
New Y’ork.
A codicil to the will, dated April 30, 1873,
makes it a condition that his sou, James Wil
ton, and his daughter, Virginia, shall only
enjoy the property left them by paying in
equal parts all tbe taxes which may become
due on the house No. 3G3 Fifih avenue, New
York, during the life of his wife, Alary Louisa
Brooks, and makes suen taxes liens on their
estate; und that the son shall pay her $3,000
and the daughter $2,000 per annum during her
life-time.
The remains of Mr. Brooks left here for
New Y'ork this morning, according to the pro
gramme.

A Waif, and What Came of it.
The Boston Journal gives a description of
the circumstances under which a child was
abandoned in tbe store of Jorden, Marsh &
Co., odc day last week. The lady with whom
the infant was le.t has no children of her
lown, but is intensely fond of them, and
when the mysterious female sat down beside
her at the counter she began petting her
baby and praisiug its beauty. The stranger
appeared emboldened by this to enquire:
“ Would you hold this baby for me for a few
moments whila I go to another part of the
store?” “Certainly,” was the reply, “I
should bo happy to do so.” The unknown
woman then departed, remarking: “Those
shopping bags are mine also; will you please
keep an eye on them ? ”
The woman with whom the child was left
held it patiently for a considerable time, but
the supposed mother not returning, she said
to one of the clerks: “I onght to be going
home to see to my husband’s supper; 1 can’t
imagine why that woman doesn’t comeback.”
A search was vainly made for tbe stranger,
when it was decided to open one of the shop
ping bags, which was done, and the first
thing that met the eye was a neatly written
and folded letter, saying that the child was of
wealthy parentage, and that the person who
should take good care of it would be reward-
led; that the parents would keep an eye upon
and see that it was properly protected, &c.
Enclosed were two $20 notes. The contents
of the shopping bags were infant’s garments
of the richest description, and worth, it is es
timated, not less than $200, one garment
alone being valued at $50.
The lady thus left with an unexpected ;off-
spring on her bands, took the little waif home
and has tenderly cared for it ever since. Her
husband’s brother having been married some
years and possessing no children of bis own,
is desirous of adopting tho little waif, which
is a boy some four or five months old, and of
remarkable beauty and healthfulness and will
doubtless be given its custody. The little one
lis fortunate in securing as good a home and
as kind care as the gentleman in question,
who is a railroad conductor, and was during
the war a volunteer officer in tbe navy, wiq
give it.
HAs to the mysterious female who abandoned
the infant, one ot the floor-walkers at Jordan,
Marsh &, Co.’s thinks she was about tbe store
for three hours before disposing of the child,
and doubtless was engaged in selecting the
person with whom to leave it. The lady
upon whom she finally decided is certain that
she has seen her pass her house since the
abandonment, and thinks she is “keeping an
eye” on the child, as intimated in the notes.
What was the motive for thns disposing of the
baby can only bo guessed, and may very
likely never be certainly known.
to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
which were to run in series far a year, the
first one becoming due on May 1, 1873. This
note was for $100,000, and as three days’
grace is allowed that would have made the
first note payable to-day (Sunday, May 4.)
But it is well known among all business men
that when a note falls due on Sunday it must
be paid on the Saturday previous.
THE BRIOANDS AND VULTURES,
who are always watching for their prey in
Wall street made, as thoy always do, a memo
randum of the date when Stockwell’s note
fell due, and all sorts of rumors were yester-
i day prevalent about this note and tbe conse
quences that might result from its non-pay-
|ment One of these rumors was that the
mortgage givon as collateral on the property
at Bridgeport by Stockwell was valueless, as
lit was said that Elias Howe, his father-in-
law, had left tho properly referred to to
Stockwell in trust for the latter’s children,
and that he had

Distressing Suicide of a Young
Lady.
A sad event occurred on Monday last, at
the residence of Mr. Solomon Zepp, near
Deer Paik road, about six miles from West
minster, Carroll county, Maryland—the death
of Miss Mary Zepp, only daughter of Mr.
Zepp, by suicide. The Westminster Times of
Thursday says:
On Monday morning the deceased arose
as u&ual and assisted in tbe preparation
of breakfast, and busied herself in helping
tho family during the meal, after which
she retired from the room and did not re
turn. Her absence occasioned no appre
hension, nothing unusual having been
noticed in her conduct. In about half an
hour after she left the room, one of her broth
ers had occasion to go into the attic or garret
of the house, and there discovered her hanging
by a strap, with her feet touching the floor.
He immediately alarmed the household, and
she was at once taken dowm; but, although
the body was warm, all effort at resositation
failed. Tbe deceased was about 24 years of
age. She possessed an amiable and affection
ate disposition and was highly esteemed by
all who knew her. Tbe cause of the sad trag
edy is fully explained in a note which mubt
have been written only a few* minutes before
tbe fAtal deed was committed, and which was
fonnd in her room soon after. We had heard
fronx>ther sources that she was subject to fits
of great mental depression, and this note fully
confirms us in tbe belief that she wap laboring
under temporary mental aberration of mind
at the time of her death. The note is w ithout
date or signature, and reads as follows:
“Farewell, dear parents and kind brothers,
for I feel this morning that my time has come,
and that I can’t survive this earth another
day. It is so b&rd to part with yon all, but
such must be a fact Last night was to me a
night of terror. I have been thus afflicted
for over three years with these spells, but
they have grown worse upon me, so that I
can’t stand it If you will read our doctor’s
book, under the head of insanity, you will
find my case exactly described to you—called
Melancholy Insanity—for which you will
find there is no remedy but this. At times I
have felt all right and would determine to try
and do better; but it has all been of no use. I
have been this way ever since I was convicted
of sin, and did not yield to that Spirit which
strove so hard with me, and which at last I
grieved away. Mother, may God bless every
one of you, and may He comfort you all in
this sad hour of bereavement I hope that
my case may be a warning to everybody.”
California is about to make an experiment
in fish breeding, which promises to be vory
successful In the latter part of this month
a ‘ ‘specially appointed” car is to be freighted
with young fish at the Cold Bpring, New
Hampshire, and other points, and dispatched
over the Pacific Railroad. Tbe temporary
aquarium will contain about 2,000 gallons ot
water, and will be so arranged that very little
inconvenience is likely to be experienced from
the motion of the train. A deputy United
BUtes fish commission for the Pacific coast
has been assigned to take charge of the car
en route. The intention is to stock the rivers
with certain varieties of Atlantis coast fish
not at present to be found in California.
NO RIGHT TO MAKE A MORTGAGE
on a property held in trust by him for others.
These and a hundred other rumors were Hy
ing around in the air yesterday,and the result
was a wild panic in Pacific Mail which lasted
for some time. These vague rumors assisted
in the jump on the stock, and as tho officers
and directors were very close in regard to this
matter it was very difficult to obtain any re
liable information. A reporter called at the
office of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
at 59 Wall street, and saw the Treasurer, and
on inquiry being made as to the truth of the
rumor that Stockwell had not met his first
note of $100,000, or that any trouble had oc
curred between the President and tbe direc
tor, he made answer in a
VERY MYSTERIOUS MANNER
that the reporter should make inquiry of Mr.
Stockwell himself in regard to the matter,
but that the officers and directors of the com
pany refused to give any information what
ever. Mr. Stockw ell was spoken to and the
same questions were asked of him, but he
said there was no truth in the reports and
that he did not understand how such rumors
originated, and that was all he would say.
He seemed very nervous, however, and did
not desire to talk.
MB. H. W. GRAY,
of the firm of Gray & Avery, in Broad street,
was also called upon, as he is supposed to be
a heavy dealer in Pacific Mail, but ho declin
ed to give any information, although he did
not deny that he was conversant with Pacific
Mail matters. It was generally believed in
Wall street, yesterday, however, that Mr.
Stockwell had not met his obligations, and
this rendered the stock market very feverish.
Pacific Mail opened at 55$, sold at 55;, and
then broke into a crash, falling to 49|.
Finally it rallied and closed at 53
another rumor that a sort of a
COMPROMISE, HOLD OVER ARRANGEMENT,
had been made between Stockwell and the
company of which he is the President. It was
also stated that Horace F. Clark had offered
his assistance to Stockwell to carry him
through his trouble, aud that Gould—who, it
is said, helped Stockwell, together with Hor
ace F. Clark, at the time of the Northwestern
corner—would probably come forward in this
crisis of Stockwell’s agony, and also assist in
the matter. And thus tho matter is reported
to stand at present.
Taxes in New Orleans.—A New Orloans
newspaper announces that “Mr. Charles Mor
gan, tbe great capitalist, who has heretofore
paid taxes to the amount of $97,000 per
annum, has refused to pay either licenses or
taxes, and openly declares that if thc so-
called Kellogg government institutes suit
against him he is ready to adopt tbe proper
measure for his defense.” It is also announc
ed that Senator Booth, who refused to pay
his license tax, and imprisoned for contempt,
has changed his mind, and paid his tax,
together with costs.
