BUsAHWHCKER MOsBY.

Yesterday, while riding in the Penn
sytvania avenue cars, who should enter
but Col. Mosby, late c. S. A. From the
fact that he carried in his hand little
black valise, OH which was printed in
large white letters, "CoL. JOHN S. Mos
BY" everybody in the cars was per force
made acquainted with the countenance
of this notorious bushwhacker and cow
ardly murderer. He comes to Wash
|ilgton very frequently, puts up at Will
lard's, and attracts great attention. he
seldom hears any good of himself from
the conversing groups at the hotel, for
some of his victims are generally about
to make few comments on his charac-
ter as +" soldier" How soon the hu-
man heart forgiVes! The men murdered
in cold blood by this wretch are legion,
and yet he visits Washington, Philadel-
phia and New York, and his Democrat
ic brethren receive him with distin-
guished honors. One of his dastardly
acts alone, which I never call to mind
without a shudder, should bring him to
the gallows and AN ignominious death.
In the fall of 1854, when in the vale;
of the Shenandoah, with the prince OF
soldiers, Gen. Sheridan, a number OF
brutal acts, perpetrated by this fend.
came under my own personal observa-
ton. The one. however, to which par
ticularly refer, was the hanging of sew
en- Union prisoners near BerryVille.
Gen. Custer had, q few days previous,
executed a rebel spy near Middletown.
This so exasperated Mosby that he de-
termined to be avenged, and calling out
his prisoners, he made them cast lots
for death by hanging. Capt. Brewster,
of Sheridan's staff, was among the num-
Der, and was one of the lucky fellows
drawing blank, which, IN that partic-
ular lottery. although not winning
card, was a very desirable one. / shall
never forget his narration of that terri
bic affair; the pathetic appeals for mer-
cy; the brutal oaths of the captors as
they frightened the fatal ropes about the
necks of the prisoners, and the frightful
death struggle. One hour after this act
was perpetrated, saw the bodies as
they hung by the roadside, the faces
black from suffocatioI, and the tongues
protruding from the bloody mouths.
1t was a sight to rouse the blacklist de-
mon of vengeance, and as Sheridan's
dusky columns passed, many an eye
kindled with wrath, and many a VOW
was taken TO avenge that horrible afro
city. "Vengeance is mine, saith the
Lord Of hosts" but Mosby, the rebel
butcher, seems to fear neither God or
man, as be swaggers into Washington,
osteDtatiously parading to the public
gaze his full name and former title and
rank in the army of the rebellion

bans Messenger.

STATE NEWS ITEMS.
Gleanings from Our Kansas Exchange

The following facts and figures fur
nished US by Mr.. Isbell, the gentlemanly
clerk of Father Lines, Pension agent of
this State, viii show that the pay
ment of pensions in this State is increas-
ing, fact which is probably due to a
large immigration which this State is
now and has been receiving. Last
March the number of pensioners paid
at this agency was eight hundred and
two, and amounted 70 the sum Of fifty.
six thousand nine hundred and fifty-one
dollars and seventy-four cents, and an
amount larger than had been paid be-
fore. The number paid thus far on the
September list, is seven hundred and six,
and amounts to forty-six thousand, six
hundred and forty-five dollars and fit
ty-seven cents. There are some over
one hundred vouchers still awaiting
payment and the total amount paid and
to be paid at the Kansas Pension Agen-
cy will amount to at least sixty-five
thousand dollars.-Topekd Record.
KANSAS ARRoAD.-Kansas is pushing
her productions into every agricultural
exhibition held in the East. Success has
given our people confidence in them

Hampshire State fair, held ct Manches-

so well represented as to call out the
following unequivocal compliment,

The State Superintendent of Public
Instruction informs us that the Com
missioners of the Common School Fund
have recently purchased $4,000 of the
Military Contingent Bonds at ninety
three cents on the dollar. This makes
S11SOO0 of the bonds of the State pur-
chased by the Commissioners since last
January. The whole amount now in
vested in the bonds of the State of Kan
sas is nearly 100000. This together
with the unpaid installments, bearing
ten per cent, on the sale of school lands
will amount to nearly 81, 100000. The
Commissioners from the first have taken
personal interest in rendering the Fund
as available as possible, and in making
it as secure as the State itself.-Cona

BORDER TIER RoAD.-The passenger
trains of the Missouri River, Fort Scot

regularly, yesterday, to Pleasanton, sew
enty-six miles south of Kansas City
and within twenty-three miles of Fort

length of the line, an additional passen-
ger train has been put on. The two
passenger trains will make daily trips

fore, from Paola to Kansas City and re-

THAT LETTER.

. The Pomeroy-Legate business has
been brought By the Leavenworih Bull
letin TO q square issue of veracity, not
between the Bulletin and anybody, but
between Mr.. Pomeroy aud Legaie OH the
one side, aud Cornelius Wendell and
Legate on the other. This statement
may seem odd. but so is the position of
Legate. He has apparently .spaired
off with himself" Cornelius W elr1eH
writes that the original letter, which he
then believed and still believes 10 be in
the hand writing of SenatoFsPoRieroy,
was shown to him by Legate. to sup
port his application for Office. 1t there
was forgery, Legate must have perpe
trated it, one would suppose. He as
serts in his card that the letter was a
" trumped-up affair." If so, who con-
cocted it? Did some adroit necroman-
Ger contrive to put the letter into Leg
ate's hand. and force him to go TO Wen
dell with itI We might imagine hat
Legate forged the letter to- help him
with Wendell but the fact that he was
then, and is still, oil the most intimate
terms with the Senator, forbids that
idea. There is only one possible alter
native. Either Wendell deliberately
contrived the whole story, aud states
what is false, or Pomery wrote the let
ter and now falsely denies it. To sup
port the latter view, a letter ia published
by the Atchison Champion, from Gen.
Butler, who says that he well remem-
bers the matter. and that it appeared
to the entire satisfaction of the commit
tee that an infamous attempt had heen
made to complicate you (Pomeroy) with
regard to Andrew johnson, by the for
gerry of your name, presenting the forged
documents to the Postmaster General,
then having an outside party take q
copy of the forgery, so that it could not
be detected, then destroying the origi-
nal so that the forgery might be safe,
and then publishing the contents of such
copy to your injury" The General
adds that the evidence was plenary to
show that You (Pomeroy) had nothing
TO do with the matter" but that he has
not the copy of the evidence at hand.
This testimony from Gen. Butler does
not explain how the paper, now declared
so be a forgery, came to be shown to
Wendell by Legate, then and now the
Senator's friend! If the statement of
Wendell is true, Gen. Butler and his
committee did not get to the bottom of
the matter, for Legate must have been
party to the forgery, If the letter shown
by him to Wendell was forged, and it
is inconceivable that in that event the
Senator would still treat him as a friend.
Throwing Legate out of sight, there
fore, the question is simply one of We
racity: "Did Cornelius Wendell see
letter supposed TO be in Pomeroy's
handwriting in the hands of Legate 7"
Or did the said Wendell concoct the
whole story, and try to damage Pome-
roy by still lying? The Butler letter
does not meet that question: though
possibly the evidence which he does not
send might do so.-Ao. Democrat.

We clip the following pertinent par
agraph from the New York Tribune:
1t is opportune that In the same issue
we should be able TO print the announce
ment that the Wall street panic is over,
and the monthly statement of the pub
lie debt which shows how utterly wick
ed and groundless in its origin that pam
ic was. The upward movement in gold
could have no possible just cause save
apprehensions of change for the worse
in the Government finances. Yet, at
the very hour the gold gamblers were
forcing the premium up into the sixties,
as if the government were on the verge
of going to pieces, the Treasury clerks
were footing up the statement which
shows that the decrease in the public
debt during the month was $7,467, 429. 80
and that the decrease during the seven
months of Grants administration has
been $50, 968, 1880.
