special writing under date of the 18th ut, says let
ters have been received in that city from Mississippi
written by the committee of five appointed by the con-
stitutiona convention to receive and count the votes
OF the late election in that State to annouee the re-
suit, and, it necessary to reconvene the convention
They do not contemplate calling the convention to-
gether, but are about to issue proclamation declaring
the election in six counties Illegal and void
of frauds and violence used. As Gen Gillem refuses
to recognise this committee, they intend to call upon
Congress to sustain their action, and to complete the
work of reconstruction in Mississippi by appropriate
legislation.

FoRNEY AFTER Than. sTEyEss BEEoREH1s DEATH
The New Orleans Times takes off the dead duck y
as follows far trying to borrow money from Thad.
Steyenss
The story will be generally reoollected of the negro
who maintained that his dog was a good coon dog
/" because he was good for nothing else Very sim :.
iar IS Forneys attempt to wrench credit from the
world Tor poor Thad Stevens who died SO thoroughly
consistent IN his badness as to make his case almost
hopeless one. Forney processes however to have dis
covered his singular unselfshncss and states that
two weeks before his death he had an interview with
the great Commoner, during which Mr.. Stevens re-
veaied the secret OF his influence upon his fellow
beng" year ago, be said g I had so fully mad I'M
my mind to die, thatI parted with nearly ali NV ready
money, and now find myself in need Of ready cash.
IN the shadow OF the graveyard all this ought to be
highly sensational and significant, but as MI Stevens
lett over half million dollars behind him,
tar portion Of which was cash assets it
plays the very duce With Torney's story and
makes his attempt fall fat as pancake
BUSINESS men can at glance through the drift
OF that Interview. Ferney had embeszled forty thou
sand dollars and what is worse, had been caught at
it, and called on old Thad to borrow With the Com
moners keen eye for number one, and his knowledge
of Forney, he Of course would not lend him cent
and made the usual answer so current ON the Aaos
+" have no money" 1t is not from such sources as
this weare aptto judge of charity and good deeds.
The ontpourngs of the hearts of the recipients of
bounty are generally the best test and we say it with
sorrow the record Of one such good deed is vet want
ing to the credit of Thad Stevens. Charity is cloak
which coveretha multitude Of sins, but its folds are
not broad enough even when swung by such visor-
GUS arm as John w Forneys to mantle the dead pol

Butler himself is likely to be investigated when be
gets back to Washington. II some Of his enemies
prove true to their word it is said that the tables can
be completely turned upon him so far as attempts at
bribery are concerned, and that evidence is in the
hands of some parties here to convict him.. There is
certain German here who keeps a drinking place
much patronised by Democrats and Republicans, and
who It is said was several times examined during the
impeachment trial with view to extract Damaging
testimony against persons who were supposed to be
connected with the conspiracy to buy Senatorial votes
for the acquttal of the President. To this German.
it is alleged Butler said he would give any amount of
money in consideration Of being supplied with evil
