SAYINGS AND DoINGS AT WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, July I, 1912.
Mr.. Wise, ofihe g Corporal's Guard,"
took occasion the Other day to say that
the Wings had crept around Mr.. Tyler
and hung about him to know what mea-
sures he would approve, in what shape he
would sign bills, &c., charging it upon
them as a mean and contemplate act -
To-day Mr.. Everett, in reply 10 that IL
rade ofihe head ofthe 'Cnporal's Quad, +"
said that he WIS ore that did 60 to Mr..
| Tyler with the view to know what were
his views, and what bills he would sign
he went there for the purpose of seeing
whether any compromise would be made
| between the Executive who had been
placed in power by the Wings, and the
! Wings themselves. lie was extremely
DESTROYS to accomplish the great objects
they had in view at the extra session, and
for which the session had been called he
was anxious TO relieve the country, and
meet the just expectations of the people
it was for this reason he went to Mr.. Ty-
Ter, at the solicitation Of others, in COM
pany with another individual /; what pass
ed 81 his Interview he would not repeat
without the consent both of Mr.. Tyler
and that Individual. As To the charge of
Preside nj making, he had nothing of the
kind in view, and he knew OF no such
thing going on. though he probably had
as good an opportunity Of knowing it, #
there had been any thing Of the kind in
agitation. All he thought of or cared
for, was 10 accomplish the great object Of
relieving the country and placing her iu-
ture prosperity upon permanent basis.
But how does this charge of Mr.. Wise
Of the Corporai's Guard, as he Signs him
self, comport with the assertion OF Mr..
Tyler in his letter to the Committee Of
Tyler men in Philadelphia, in which he
says I" would gladly harmonize with
Congress in the enactment Of all necessa-
~ measures, if the majority would permit
me ~ "lf the majority would permit
me !" And Mr.. Wise charges members
of that majority with meanly endeavoring
to find out what Mr.. Tyler would agree
to. that they might enJeayor to shape their
bills so as TO meet his appreciation When
the Corporal end the Captain disagree,
who is to decide what is right! Mr.. Ev-
ereti, however, has settled the matter, and
shown that the Corporal has told more
truth than the Captain"

From the National Lsteiigencer Of Jaiy 6
The Debate ON the great TARIFF BILL
was yesterday resumed in the House OF
Representatives, and pursued for six
hours the Army and Navy Appropria-
ton Bills, as they came back to the House
with amendments from the Senate, being
passed by. 10 the present questionable
state Of the laws concerning revenue, the
opinion OF the House seems to be that not
momen, should be lost in giving legal
certainty and precision 10 the operations
of the Government in reference to that
matter. Just before the adjournment OF
the House yesterday, Mr.. FILLMORE
Chairman Of the Committee Of Ways and
Mcans) lntlmated an intention to move to
take the Tariff Bill out Of the Committee
ofthe Whole ON Monday next, so as 10
bring it to as early decision as posi-
| Bile.

Twenty two more of the prisoners were
discharged on the 18th inst.
| II is curious fact that many of the
prisoners, on their examination, ascribi d
their participation IN the rebellion to the
influence Of "the womep," with whom,
they said, Dorr was ga great favorite. -
For instance, Samuel Greene made this
| declaration
Went into the cause because some la.
dies were going thought there was no
danger wherethe ladies were; heard many
of them were ready to fight for Dorr. He
seemed to be great favorite with them.
VIM. +. Mason, aged Is, said:
Should not have gone TO Chepachet had
not the women pursuaded me to do so ;
there was one in particular did not dare
refuse she was my sweetheart threat
ened to give me tho mitten if did not go.
Clark Smith, Of Albion village:
q Most Of the women in our village are
in favor oil D3rr; some talked of putting
on pantaloons and going to his aid 4; they
had good dealof influence with the men;
kept up continual talking; should pity
the man who remained at homo among
them. Should rather remain in prison
than to contend with them myself. Went
to tho camp to make show--made a
poor show; in case OF actual battle meant
to sneak off myself.
Almond Smith, also Of Albion village,
son OF the last:
Is years, works in mill went TO Che
pachet; was advised to 60 BY Sarah and
the rest of the girls; hated to hang back
for fear they would laugh atme; mother
knew was out; she let me 60 because |
wanted to; expected to be made hero
of; was made prisoner Of; searched for
glory-couldn't find any don't think |
