ness. Henderson, Fowler and Ward, re-
fused to tell what they did with the money
they drew out of bank. 1t was used, as
they said, for purposes wholly foreign to

of the committee.
The Times dispatch says that Leggett
testified that he never read or delivered q

wrote or authorized the writing of such q
letter.
The Worlds Washington dispatch says
no one there dare to send a dispatch by tel

Sam Galloway was also appointed to
make chin music, but the crowd was too
large for Sam to tell how he had waded in
to Ben Wade. Besides this, the heat of the
room was so excessive from the terrific
crowd, and the exertion consequent upon
the sublime enthusiasm displayed, that the
people began to faint here and there, and
to fall rs the leaves fall. These were swept
out to the number of 1s000,OO0, giving
some envious Copperheads, who had gone
there to scoff at serious things, occasion to
say that the whole thing was Gzzle, and
the enthusiasm all in your eye.

day night was not one of the largest and
most spirited affairs ever held in Column
