fhs Brutal Captosn of The Bombay.
The following incidents connected with the
Oneida disaster are gathered from the state
ments Of the survivors, received by the last mail
A touching tribute to duty was that of Capt.
Z. p. Williams, who, like the brave sailor he
was, refused to leave the post OF duty. and 81
and commanded so ably.
Surgeon rockingham had with him remark
ably bright japanese boy of two-sworded inher-
itance, whom he was taking to New York TO n
ucate for i've years; trne TO his trust, he was
last seen trying to rescue the little "Yakonn.' y
Lieutenant Commander Stewart and Ensign
ADAMS went to IRE the alarm guns, and ascer-
VAS killed and swept overheard, had the key to
the magazine i'm his pocket. Together they
forced the door, and together aided in firing
three guns, but before the fourth coald be fred
the water had gained 80 rapidly that the heavy
gun and iron carriage slipped and went down
the hafchway, carrying with IL Ensign Adams,
and crushing him to instant death
Ensign Charles A. COpp was in charge OF the
berth deck. and, after seeing all the Sick and
invalid seamen removed to the deck, returned
below to his post of duty. A comrade hailed
down. "No,'' said Ensign Copp. II am sta,
toned here, and cannot come until relieved -
Noble boy! brave youth! "Not until 1 am re-

those noble words the wild waves of the cruel
sea engulfed the ship.
The following reported testimony was ad-
duced before the court:

To SEE Down WELL-The New HAMPSHIRE
journal OF Agriculture suggests an excellent
plan for exploring the bottom Of a well: ait is
not generally known how easy a matter it is to
examine the bottom of a well, cistern, or pond
of water by the use of common mirror. When
the sun Is shining brightly, hold mirror so that
the reflected rays of light will fall into the water
A spot will be seen at the bottom, SO light as TO
show the smallest object plainly. By this means
we have examined bottoms of wells 30 feet deep
when half full or more of water. The smallest
straw or other small object can be perfectly
seen from the surface. In the same way one
can examine the bottom of ponds and rivers, ii
the water be somewhat clear, and not agitated
by winds of rapid motion. If a well or cistern
be under cover, or shaded by buildings so
that the sunlight will not fall near the opening,
1t is only necessary to employ two mirrors, using
one to reflect the light to the opening, and
another to send it down perpendicularly into the
water Light may be thrown fifty or hundred
yards to the precise spot desired, and then re-
hected downward. We have used the mirror
with success to reflect the light around field to
shaded spot, and also to carry it from a south
window through two rooms, and then into a els
tern under the north side Of the house."

pointed to investigate the subject OF the alleged
discrimination against Alexandria, by the U. A.
and NJ. X. X. Company, reported preamble and
resolution, which were adopted, setting forth:
"The committee OF this Association appointed
to investigate the alleged discrimination against
the business prosperity Of our city and the inter-
ests of the State of Virginia, by the managers of
the q. A. and NJ. X. r., have, in their report,
clearly shown such Determinations to exist; that
in the opinion Of this Association, the policy
pursued by said Railroad Company has been,
and still is, highly detrimental to our business
Interests; that we believe the said discriminating
poicy 10 be, In great mcaeure, the result OF the
influence of a powerful foreign corporation,
whose interests are necessarily inimicai to those
Of the people of this State; and that this AssOci
alton do most respectfully request the Board OF
Public Works to take such action as in their
judgment will best protect our city and the citi-
zens along the line of said road, i'm their Just and
lawful rights, and that a copy of these resolu-

The Bread and Butter Brigade, fighting so
Justify for their fat pickings against the Terrific
rial plan OF self government for the District,
have ut last got some adequate champions for
their cause. Corporation Attorney Cook made
so poor figure before the Senate District Com
mittee, and was 90 badly snubbed for his pains.
that the bread and butter men skunk away from
the Capitol terribly demoralzed and discour-
aged. If Cook, with all his smartness and
audacity. could do nothing for them, the case
was hopeless. But, 10! a new champion!
Street contractor VIM. +. Morse, first known
to washington as the originator Of the famous
or Infamous gift concert scheme which duped
so many people here some years age, comes for
ward to do what Cook failed to do, and he has
for his faithful Sancho fanza the s.,topographer
known as "Dead-beat Peck" the defaulting
State Treasurer Of Maine. This remarkable
couple appeared at Union League Hall last
night and essayed to gather an audience by the
which they proceeded to rant for al hour or two
IN their Characteristic way agains: the plan of
Territorial government and the citizens who
.avor it.
Feck could not see how Congress could dele
gate power to the District. and Morse had the
effrontery to say that "no sane lawyer would as
sert that Congress had the power to form a Ter
ritorial Legislature In this District" This piece
OF impertinence, aimed by Morse at Senators
HamEn, Sumner and others, including three
quarters OF the members of both House, is not
lmely to help the Bread and-Butter Brigade
with Congress.
Again, Morse had the cheek to say that "when
the status of the leaders in this movement was
known, that such a thing as Territorial bill
could not get a cOrporals guard, either in the
House or in the Senate" Indeed! The s'stat-
us" OF W. =. Morse and ID. Il. Peck on one side
and the status of Gen. y. .. Howard, Judge
Fisher, A.T. Riddle, &c, &c, on the other Z!
At the conclusion of the Morse-Peck rigma-
role, Ward Commissioner Green came forward
with his inevitable string Of resolutions, thank
truthful" &C., &C., and leaving poor Peck out
in the cold.
