MATTERS AT THE CAPITAL.
HORRIBLE JAIL EXPOSURES,
A Fiendish Jailor.
MARSHAL LAM0d LII i TIGHT PLACE,

Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribunal
WASHINGTON, June 81, 1863.
Mr. Grimes presented the report Of the
senate committee Of the District Of Columbia,
on the Investigation Of Washington jail, Il
ssys the prisoners are barbarously treated and
half starved Free negroes are frequently sub
jected to punishment called "cabbing,''
which consists Of stripping the person, throw
ing him across barr&l, face downward, tying
his hands and feet together, and whipping him
with board paddle. Several other illegal and
inhuman practices have been discovered, per
petrated principally By the jailor, John Il,
Wise, who has since resigned The commit
tee say they wou1d be disposed to attribute
this state Of things to inadyertance
on the part Of Marshal Lamon, if they
could discover any disposition to reform
the abuse; but inasmuch as he has made op-
position to and heaped indignity On the Sen
ate committee Of jail investigation, they hold
him responsible Lsmon's order excluding
members OF Congress from the jail is COM
mented On in severe terms. The committee
recommended building new jail, aud taking
the old jail out OF the ma1shal's custody. Also.
general revision Of the lava Of the District.
It Is shown by the investigation that the ices
of the marahal for keeping prisoners nre es-
tablished by the Maryland lsw Of 1889, when
ali feea were payable in tobacco, which law Ia
still In force, and the foes have to be com
puted in several different kinds Of currency,
and az many sums in rule ofthree, before being
reduced to dollars and cents.

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.

The Senate passed the Pacific Railroad
;>iu On Friday with some essential modifi-
cations. From our dispatches we judge
that the Pawnee sWindlc referred to at con
siderable length By our Washington cor
respondent, last week, has been stricken
out At this every real friend Of the
measure should rejoice. The starting
point in the Territory, Of Nebraska,
at or near the hundreth meridian
west Of Greenwich, is undoubtedly in-
tended to be located by the bill at Fort
kearncy. This will best accommodate
1he whole country, being precisely in the
track pointed out by nature in the valley
which the late Senator Benton said the
buffalo had selected as the route for the
great thoroughfare of the continent
In tlis matter the Senate have done wisely
and we'll, and now let the petitions once
more be poured into the House to pass the
Oil at once. Let our representatives be
reminded Of whGt Is really true,
that the country a1e unanimous fol
the measure. The opponents are
not worth The counting. Last week
will ever be distinguished for the passage
Of the Arnold-Loyejoy BILL making free
dom national and slavery sectional
thus bringing the nation back tt
the time honcred principles Of Wash
ipgton, jefferson, and the Other
fathers Of the Republic. That il
glory enough for one week Letiron band!
stretching from the Missouri to the Pacific
be The enduring memorial that shal
mark 1lis weeks labors. Let every
constituent write to his representative urg
ing the immediate passage Of the bill
When that is through there are few NOR
great national measures to complete ant
this Congress will achieve an immor
tahty that will become only the more glo
-ious as lime rolls onward.

RESTLT OF TIE ELECTION.
MONDAY, JUNE %, 1868.

Our table of1eturns this morning gives the
result in ctahty-e3gAt eounies-leayiug but
fourteen, and they small ones, to be heard
from. There can be but little doubt but
tho swindle is defeated by not less than TO-
DOO without the aid Of the soldiers vote. The
three negro propositions are adopted by
large majorities. It is doubtful whether
the proposition "against banks is carried,
but We are inclined to think it is. In most
counties persons voted against banks under
the influence Of the stumptail cry who
also voted against the constitution. The
opponents Of the "swindle" made no
special effort to beat that clause, but left
It to take care Of itself.
The vote On Congressional apportionment
we think, is pretty close In some counties,
Mclean for example, manY Of the oppo-
nents Of the constitution voted for the ap-
porionment proposition for local reasons.
