POLE RAISING IN GERMAN Town
sHEP.-On Saturday night a magnif-
cent Grant and Colfax pole was raised
at Mr.. John Farris's, in German
Township, on the same ground that a
Republican pole was bored down four
years ago by some %cowardly Copper
head, who had not the courage to take
an ak and cut it down. The pole was
raised without the least difficulty,
bearing aloft a long streamer, having
inscribed thereon the talismanic
names of Grant and Cclfax. On the
top of the pole was fixed miniature
horse with a rider. intended to repre-
sent General Grant on his war horse.
On the arrival Of the Grant Gun
Squad, a salute was fred, and then
the Star-Spangled Banner was flung to
the breeze, amidst enthusiastic cheers.
Capt. Fl c.. Gooding, of this city,
was then loudly called for. and re-
sponded in one of his most telling
speeches, which was listened to with
deep interest, and received with en-
thusiasm and applause. Capt. Good
ing is an easy and graceful speaker,
and possesses the faculty of making
himself clearly understood. His re-
view of the history of the Democratic
party, and his exposition of that and
the rebel party now, as well as during
the war, was satisfactory to his hear
ers, and particularly well received.
We regret the want of space for a
more extended notice of his remarks.
He was followed by Lieut.. G. Tom
Lemelt. who spoke to his German4el-
low-citizens for a short time in their
own language. His remarks were re-
ceived with enthusiastic applause
throughout. A good work has been
commenced in German Township,
which. if followed up as it should be,
will result in great good. The thanks
of the visitors from Evansville are due
to Mr.. Farris, for his kindness and
hospitality to them.

The N Y. Herald Washington despatches oil
yesterday contain the following-
News has arrived here that the famous Sa-
mana bay purchase has been completed. Under
the Presidency of Cabral Mr.. Frederick Seward
was commissioned To offer S2,OO0O0O for 1t,
which was refused. President Baez, however,
when he came into power evidently found him.
self hard pressed, and through his commits
sloner, Mr.. Fabens, applied to the United States
Government In the hope of having the offer re-
newed. IL appears that Thad Stevens entered
very heartily into the project, and even had
resolutions drafted for an appropria-
tion for It's purchase; but the
Alaska affair had precedence, and the
impeachment trial coming on etfectually threw
semsna In the shade Certain New York
capitalists, headed by K. p. Hollister, whose
name is the only one which thus far appears
entered into preliminary contract with Mr.
Fabens for perpetual lease of the bay and
peninsula, which contract has just been ap-
proved by the Dominican Government, and q
large amount paid down by the New York
parties. II is understood that the whole affair
is moved from Washington, and that as soon
as occupation Is given the United States will
proceed to establish a naval station there.

1t is not considered probable that another

1t is stated that the Dominion Government
intend TO make proposals or concessions to

1t is rumored that General Doyle will shortly

TORONTO, Dec. l6,-lt is ruPored here that
Commodore Vanderbilt has made an offer to the

Spectol Despatch TO Ino Evening Telegraph
WASHINGTON, Dec 16.
The House Judiciary Committee
has determined to prosecute the inquiry directed
by the House as to whether the State of Mary
land has republican form of government.
To this end they have appointed Messrs.
Lawrence, of Ohio Churchill, of New York,
and Eldridge, of Wisconsin, as a sub committee
TO take testimony during the recess.
The Maryland Delegation
has been notified of this action, and are prepar-
ing TO meetit.
An effort will be made By the friends of the
Eastern Division of
The Pacific Railroad
to take up and pass to. day the Senate bill
granting a subsidy TO that company. The bill
will be reported by Washburne, of Illinois, as
well as by friends of the rival roads to the
Pacific.
1t will probably give rise to lengthy debate
III the Senate.
THE Finance Committee
met this morning and took up the nomination
of Alexander Cummings for
Commissioners of Internal Revenue,
but no action was had. The Committee also
agreed to report the following:-
Res0lued, That neither public policy nor
good faith of the nation will allow the redemp-
ton of the ive-twenty bonds until the Uuited
states shall perform its primary duty of paying
its notes in coin, or making them equivalent
thereto; and measures should be adopted BY
Congress to secure the resumption of specie
payments at as early period as practicable.
The Ways and Means Committee
had long session this morning. and agreed to
the bill extending the time for the payment OF
the tax on tobacco in hand. The bill was
reported to the House, and passed without dis
Cussion. 1t extends TO the 18th of February
next.
The House Committee on ApprOpria-
tiOnS
met this morning, and took up for consideration
the Legislative Appropriation bill. Considera-
ble progress was made, and some OF the esti-
mates were cut down.

THE ACCIDENT AT BALDwIN's.-At noon to-
day Coroner Daniels held an Investigation in
the case of Frank Doyle, who died at the Hos
pitRl yesterday, from the effects of In urie5 re-
ceived by the falling of the derrick and girder
at the new building which is being erected at
Monday afternoon.
From the testimony il seems that the work
men had hosted q rafter to the top of the build
ing, but not being in exact position, the re-
and three laborers then went to the western
most guy rope, which they were engaged in
hauling in, when the rope, without warning,
carried them into the air.
The deceased was the one nearest the belay-
ing pin, which was under the direct charge of
let go the rope and fell to the ground, aud was
then struck by the rafter. The witnesses testi-
FED that the rope was sound, and that there
were a sufficient number of men managing 1t.
The cause of the derrick falling was assigned
TO the fact that the rope had been taken off the
pin IN order to take in the slack, at which time,
1t Is supposed, the men eased up their hold,
and by this the rope got the best OF them. The
deceased was laborlng man, sent to assist the
rjggers, and was placed nearest the kelaying-
pin, around which the rope was not turned.
The rigger, instead of attending TO the belay-
Ing pin, was the farthest of, and Doyle, from
the testimony, II appears, knew nothing about
taking a turn in the rope. An expert testified
that the ropes and material were of q quality
sufficient TO bear twice the weight. that the
derrick was at the Delaying pin, taking in the
rope
The jury returned a verdict that deceased
came to his death from in juries received by the
falling of rafter, caused by inexperienced
win locomotive works, Broad aud Buttonwood
streets, december H. 1868. The jury most
severely censure the liggers In charge.
