Cisrrit smith is out Of the Insane Asylum
but into the law extensively. He has through
a Law firm in Syracuse commenced libel suitS
against three Of the leading members of the
notorious Fifth Avenue Hotel Democratic Com
mittee, Msssrs. Watts Sherman, Royal Phelps,
and S. L. Barlow, for damages to his reputa-
ton alleged to have been received from ihe
publication of the Manifesto Of the New York
Democratic Vigilant Association. The dam
ages claimed are s5O,OOOin each case. There
are twenty-eight other members of this Com
mittee
The libel contained in the ''ManifesiO" con-
sisted in charging Mr.. Smith with belonging to
an abolition 'Csntral Association" of bloody
and horrible purposes; with having contributed
to create servile instructions which he pre-
dicted before John Browns foray; and Of haVN
ing meant invasions of Southern States when
he wrote to Brown about his "Kansas work. v
At the instance of Mr.. Smith, his son.in law,
CD. Miller, wrote to the parties before insti.
tuting legal proceedings. We clip two para
graphs of the letter
"As Mr. Smith belongs to no Society, has
always opposed secret societies, had never be
fore heard Of this Central Association" and
condemns all shedding Of human blood
save by Government, he necessarily feels HIM
self to be deeply wrOnged by you and your
associates He holds you and them responsible
for calling in effect upon the people both o
the North and South 70 detest and abhOr him
Mr. Smith wishes to know without any delay
whether you and your associates will persist
in your libel, OF make the unqualified and am
pie retraction which the case calls for"

Mileage Question in Congress.

John sherman, of Ohio, Chsirman of the
Committee of Ways and Means, in the House,
has made move to cut of the roundabout
mileage of Members of Congress. which, strange
to say, came so near passing that twas ordered
to third reading by the decided vote of l2s to
A It was finally consigned to the Speakers
desk by some dodge of the opposition, but If
will probably be got up again and passed. 1t
should be, and if a law, would save the country
some $500, 600 year. It fixes the mileage Ol
members at twenty cents for every mile trav.
elsd by q straight geographical line. from the
residence to the Capital, instead of the existing
rate of forty cents by the usually travelled route.
Railroads, and other rapid modes of travel,
have done nothing to cheaper mileage to the
treasury, members cOOlly pOcketing all the ad
vantages, in addition to the $4,000 salary.
The bill may be killed, but Mr. Sherman is,
nevertheless entitled to the thanks of the cOun>
try for having brought it forward. It is dis
graceful to the members who oppose a measure
Of such marked justice, and SO clearly from
mercenary motives. The mileage of members
is enormous. Take, for instance, those from
Oregon, who new receive some, $4,000 each per
annum, as mileage. This is by far too much.
Mr.. Shermsn's bill will give them about 81 600,
which is AiI they should have. The Louisiana
members now get from 81, 500 to $4,000 each
for mileage per annum, when one tenth Of that
sum would amply compensate them for the ex
pense. Other sections are equally IS bad and
Objectionable, and simple justice to the Nation
al Treasury demands that Mr.. Sherman's bill
should become q law. This mesndering to and
from Washington at heavy expense, has been
borne quite long enough Let reform come.

Alabama Matters.

The Legislature of Alabama has just closed
a prOtracted session, without dissolVing the
Union. though it passed a military bill placing
100000 at the disposal Of the Governor, to
meet any emergency, and adopted joint resO-
lutions to call convention in the event of the
e:sctiOn of Republican President. A law
was also passed to exempt foreign goods, &C.,
imported direct, from taxation.
The democratic bill to Danish free negroes
failed to pass, but an act grsoiOusly allowing
free negroes the blessed privilege of choosing
masters and becoming slaves, is recorded among
the enlightened statutes Of the sovereign State
of Alabama. q;WiIl you walk into my ParlOr

SUPERsrITIoN AnD SUIcIDE.--The Akron Bsa-
con gives the following particulars of the sui
eide by drowning Of Mrs. Ann Dumford, an
Irish woman, in Tallmadge. The circumstsn
ces are very singular:
She had recently given birth to an infant that
did not survive its birth, and the anguish that
she experienced az to the destiny of this un,
baptized offspring drove her to insanity. She
left her bed at an early hour in the morning
and walked more than a mile barefoot, OveI
snow, frozen ground and ice, to the P. and D
Canal, got rail from a fence, broke hole
through the ice and plunged in. She was
tracked from the dwelling to the spot, and thi
shawl floating in the hole indicated where the
body was to be found. She was about thirty
five wears old,

Three widows after BurtOn's Estate.

The comedian Burton not only left snug
estate, but three claimants to it in the shape
of widows of some sort. The claims are to be
strongly contested, and the Tribune says the
Burton will case now stands in this position:
By his will Mr.. Burton left 81, 900 to Jane
Livingston Burton, but it is stated that he
never was married to her. Since then, Mrs.
Elizabeth Burton, of England, has appeared
as q contestant on the ground that she is the
widow Of the deceased. It n6w appears that
there is another widow in Philadelphia
While Mr.. Burton was in that city, his wife
in England went there and commenced legal
proceedings against him, in the course of
which collateral question was raised as to
validity of his marriage with her (the Eng
lish wife), which was declared to be void
Subsequently, the marriage with the Phils-
delphia lady was snnulled. Thus, as it now
stands, there are three apparent widows,
while it would seem that there is not one in
reality.

Boston Shoe Trade--The strikes

The shipments of Boots and Shoes from
Boston show a total of ,499 cases by rail
and sea for the week ending the let. The
Leather Reporter says purchasers have bought
at prices as low or lower than ever before, but
frmer feeling is now manifested and the
manufacturers are holding their goods for bet
ter prices, and adds:
The striking mania is extending, and no one
can tell where it will stop. It is conceded that
the strike will prove benefit to the employers.
Many of the manufacturers have considerable
quantities of goods on hand, for which they
have now prospect of obtaining fair prices
The advance struck for by the jouTneymen is
some 80 per cent. above the prices generally
paid Few manufacturers have shown a dis
position to accede to their demands, and it is
impossible for any large number to do co.
Without their agency, the losses of the season
will be transferred from the manufacturer to
the journeymen.

lIInnesota 3 ellef BIn Passed.

The pressure Of hard times bears heavily on
young Minnesota, the people having pretty
generally run wild in real estate and other
speculstiOns instead of digging the soil. The
Legislature has passed bill granting three
years for the redemption of property sold under
mortgage, whsreat the people rejoice greatly.
The Minnesotian thus crows over the fact;
This is great and glorious Relief Measure,
and will be hailed by the people with intense
pleasure. Put in your seed for the Spring,
farmers; kiss your wives and babies, and lay to
for year Of earnest work. Pay up as fast as
you can-live economically-thank God for
what you have got, and bless the action of a
Republican Legislature.

The ResuIts OF Bad Company.

The Elyria Democrat thus gives the results
of very sad trial that recently occurred in that
place.
At the close Of our Court proceedings, last
week, the case ofthe State against Harvey A..
Prentiss was on trial He was ably defended
by Messrs. s. Burke and A. G. Riddle. and the
prosecution was conducted by W. W. BoynS
ton, States Attorney, and L. A. Sheldon. The
jury were absent little over an hour, and re-
turned with a verdict of guilty. Prentiss and
Moore were indicted for breaking into the
shoe shop of A. s. Hovey, IN Camden, in 0c-
tober last, and stealing therefrom sundry aTtis
cles of leather, shoes, DC. He hsd resided in
Camden from his bOJhood, and previous TO
this occurrence his character was above res
prOach. About four years ago he left home,
and has visited various parts Of the Western
country, where, it is feared, he formed the &C.
quaintance Of evil men, and was led into the
commission of crime. His friends and neigh
bors testified to his upright character, but the
testimony pointed to him as one of the per-
petratOrs of the crime, and his former good
character availed him nothing
They were each sentenced to the Peniten-
tiary for one year, Moore confsssing and Prem
tiss denying his guilt
