fumery. eighty-one thousand dollars for
wine and brandy. sixty-six thousand for

Perhaps We may lie told that people

such a ri ight does not exist. Habits of
luxury and extravaganza. huriful TO those

the community by their bad example.

LOST THE WHoLE-Two young men,
shoemaker and harness-maker, from
Ira>burgh, visited Derby Line one day last
week and bought about a hundred dollars
worth of harness trimmings, which they
duly reported to the custom house officer
there and received the proper permit from
him. But being little too avaricious IN
their desires, they took along with them 4
JUG of the ..ardent," while the shoemaker
wrapped about him a nice calf skin or
two. But they did not escape notice
here They were followed by officers

A COMMITTEES ON THE AssAssISATIos.-
The House, by a vote of 100 to "a,
passed resolution, introduced by Gen.
Butler, providing for the appointment
OF a select committee OF Ave members to
inquire into the particulars OF the as
ssssination OF President Lincoln, with
unlimited power to send for persons and
papers, and TO report bill granting am
nesty and pardon to such persons as may
have been connected with the consplr-
scy, and who may testify against Others.
1t Is to be hoped that this Committee
will consider itselfauthori2ed to do what
the Judiciary Committee has declined
to do and inquire into the truth of the
rumors and revelations duplicating
President Johnson with the assassination
plot, Strange as 1t may seem, there is
much evidence, not as yet brought out,
including copy of all the writing in
the much talked of diary, which copy
was made by Lieut.. Col. Conger, while
coming up on steamboat to Washing
ton with the body of the assassin, and
what was found on it.
