The PROPOSED BREsLIN INVESTIGATION

The PROPOSED BREsLIN INVESTIGATION.
The movement in the Senate towards
an investigation of the State Treasury, the
recent defalcation included, is in itself a
good one. The members OF the Commit
tee, rs proposed in the bill now before the
Senate, as Mr.. Edgerton, VIM. D. Nor
gan, and Chas Reemcln. Could the Leg
islature compel Morgan to tell all he knows
about the Breslin defalcation, it would be
putting him to a better purpose than he is
likely to serve as Committeeman in the
case. If he knows who stole the money!
as is intimated, he is not fit to sit on such
a Committee, until he has told the whole
story. Mr.. Reemelin is a good man for
the place, and probably also Mr.. Edger-
ton, who lives in one of the Northwestern
counties. But will the Democracy be will
ling to have this matter thoroughly inves-
t;gated? Dare they clothe even the above
named gentleman with powers sufficient
to give them any chance to get at "the
facts?" Gin. Gazette.

SENATOR SEwARD-The " National
Era" of Washington, defends Senator Sew
ard from the assaults made upon him by
certain Republican journals, and properly
says: ug
Panegyric is not to our taste, nor shall we
indulge in it now. But it is sheer folly to
suppose that Mr.. Seward has changed his
character, his purposes, or his policy
He is just rs true to the cause of freedom
to-day, as he has ever been. He does
not advocate permanent increase Of the
standing army. He has not said that the
battle between freedom and slavery is over.
He has not renounced allegiance to the
Republican party. He has not given up
the cause of Freedom IN Kansas.

there is no compound valuable these Pills; ala

re-" The ST. Louis Democrat" thinks
that the Lecompton Constitution ought
not to be called the "Lecompton fraud, ="
and gives singular reason for it. 1t
says:
We notice that large number of jour
nails throughout the country have COM
mited the mistake, and we confess to the
error ourselves, of denouncing the Le-
compton Constitution as a fraud. Now
we are well satisfied that this very fea-
ture is what renders it most attractive to
the national demagogues. If it had been
continuously spoken of as fair and honest,
they would at once have refused to touch
it. 1t is because they became satisfied of
its fraudulent nature that they and the
Administration seized upon it with such
avidity, and cling to it SO tenaciously.-
Even the bare suggestion Of honest dealing
on the part. of Calhoun, puts the Charles
ton Mercury and Richmond South"
and such organs, into a very tumult of
disgust.

AN INCIDENT AT WAsHINGToN.-The
w ashington correspondent of the Boston
"Post" writes the following amusing ap-
pie feat: ...
81 cannot help telling you a little Incl
dent of Secretary Toucy's reception
One of the guests, a gentleman, having a
lady on his arm, took from the table a
large, fine apple, probably for the little
ones at home. and his coat sleevs being
large, he secreted it in the sleeve of his
right arm. Unfortunately he forgot tn e
circumstance just at the very moment
he should not, for in making his retiring
bow he gave a flourish of his arm, and
pitched the apple almost in the Secretary's 8
face! 1t bounded and rolled away till it
lodged under some lady's crinoline, while
the poor gentleman looked as much NOR
tilted and astounded as if he had acci-
dentally fired bomb-shell in the parlor.
This incident was too ludicrous for gravity,
and even tie grave, dignified Secretary
was forced into broad smile, which ex-
panded into grin all around the parlor.
Some wag scrambled to get the apple, and
restored it to the discomfited gentleman,
who ncontinently took himself Off"

A Now FIIIIbuster Lender.

VIM. Walkers laurels are withered. 1t
is useless for him to look TO them. Were
it otherwise, he might well be on the alert,
TO preserve the freshness of his coronal
honors. A rival is said to be around, and
no mean rival either. He is man pos
sessing peculiar advantages for undertak
ing the expedition our Administration has
SO much at heart, against the suny lands
across our South west border. We allude
to the patriotic ex-President of Mexico,
Gen. lgnacio Comonfort.
When last heard from, Comonfort was
at Baltimore. 1t may be the merest sus-
picion that attributes to him fillibustering
intentions, but he is actually believed to
harbor such designs. Whether he has al
ready continued his journey to Washing
ton, we are not apprised. Such is, of
course, his ultimate destination.
Comonfort is undoubtedly mindful of
the proposals which Walker asserts TO
have been made to him, for leading Mex
ican expedition. The exile knows how
this business can be effectually done. He
is evidently more in sympathy with our
people than any former ruler in that coun-
try ever has been. He has his revenge
to compass. He has still his ambition to
crafty. If favored with private inter
view by ga member Of the Cabinet" and
egged on to undertake a fllibustering raid
into the territory of which he has still
some claim to be regarded as the rightful
sovereign, we are confident he will prompt
ly act on the suggestion rather than run
to the public with the story of his tempta-
ton and virtuous resistance.
With all the well known views Of the
President in favor of stealing Cuba
and with the significant intimation of al
impending war with Spain, which have
been repeatedly given out, it is by nc
means incredible that some sort of a Goa
ltion, involving the annexation of NOR,
Mexican territory and the seizure of Cuba
may be Matched between the exiled sover
eign and our covetous rulers. The proba
bic interference of Spain in the presen
Mexican imbroglio seems to afford the de
sired opportunity, and stranger things
have happened than such grand fllibus
tering plot on the part of our government
under the aid and leadership of Comonfort
That some startling movement is contem
plated by the Administration, for the ac
QUESTION of more territory, is highl,
probable, and we cannot imagine NOR
hopeful scheme than this.-Cin. Gazette

Outrage ia the Alton I'cmitentiary

The st. Louis Evening News" of
Tuesday last, gives strange and highly
improbably account of an outrage in the
Illinois Penitentiary, by convict named
Hall. While the turnkey, n man named
Crabbe, was conducting this convic: to
his cell, the latter knocked Crabbe down.
dragged him into the cell with him, locked
the door after them, and then standing
over him with dirk, told Buckmaster,
the warden, and other officers who came to
see what the matter was, that unless they
Immediately procured q pardon for him
from the Governor, he would kill the poor
turnkey The officers, and indeed the
whole city of Alton, are represented as in
a dreadful state of fright. They shot at
the convict through crack in the door,
but he lodged the balls! 1t is quite in
keeping with the rest of the story to rep
resent this desperate covlct as able to
dodge rifle balls as fast as they could be
shot at him. The officers sent in desper-
ate haste to Springfield, to procure par
don from the Governor. and obtained it,
but at the last accounts Hall was still stan
ding over the PROSTATE turnkey with
drawn dagger.
If this story is tru e, the officers of the
Illinois Penltentlary must be craven set.
