Correspondents Of the n. Y. Caz.
Warrington, Sept. 20, 1887.
The city is very quiet, and, out Of Congress !
there il no news. Mr.. Lane, late member Of In /
diam, is here. and soliciting the mission Bogota,
with little prospect OF success Defeated Adiscar-
ded partizan have little favor toexpect from
administrations, busy in certifying its position.
They say to the old campaigners who fought,
bled, and became defnnct, under the last admins
,tration--"You served General Jackson, go to
General Jackson for your reward."-These old
politicians furnish melancholy warning to the
new ones. BY the way, speaking Of Mr.. Lane
reminds me Of one Of his com-patriots, Mr. D.tee
J. Pearce, Of Rhode Island,-a man Of much
shrewdness and expcrience,-a good deal Of tact,
many valuable acqnisi,ions,-great versatility
mas CT ofm~icrn fdcts. and q wonderful faculty
in acquiring information Of a general nature,-in
fact, "almoss great man." who has shared with
Amos Lane the penalty Of election from Congress
on account Of his loco focoism--and what IS worse
| his General Jacksonsm.--Alr. Wise had occasion
to-day, to aludc to the packed investigating COM
mittcc public abuses, over which he presided
at the last session; and he said that not part
particle Of the report OF the majority Of that
committee written by any one Of that maj ori-
ty. ~ will tell the House," said he, "by whom
it was written: scavcnger An anti-masonic
editor from Boston, was brought here, a clerk
Of the committee, by Ditee J. Pearce--then q
member Of this house--but who, thank God, is
now out of this House, and, will add, ought to be
out of the country. This clerk who received s. s
day for his pay, remained at his lodgeing feign-
ing sickness, and there wrote the majority report,
being furnished with for that purpose, by Dl-
. tee J. Pearcc and Abijlh Mann; and of such in
famous tissues Of falshood did the report consist
that large part Of it was exPunged by the ma
ljority themselves" Now, there is pretty crumb
Of comfort for my friend, Dutee in his retire
mcni.
The CASE ALrERED.-When the jackson
party, in 1884, were preparing to seize the public
