The CASE OF SENATOR HAsKE1I-HE is
ENTIRELY ExoNERArED.-As will be seen by
the Senate report, the special committee in
the case Of Senator Haskell on Yesterday
returned & report entirely acquitting him OF
the charges preferred against him. Hon.
K. S. Aver reached the city on yesterday
morning and cleared the mystery about his
position in the case. lie had made certain
statements about Haskell based upon the
allegations of 4 man named Aud, in W ash
ington. Aud, when the charges which
had, it appears, originated with him. came
to be investigated, backed out, saying that
he had been misunderstood by Mr.. Aver.
Mr.. Aver appeared before the committee
on yesterday and testified to the above
facts. This, in connection with letters
from prominent citizens of Bangor. Maine,
showing that the man Frank Haskell.
charged in that city with stealing watch
soon after the war, had no connection in
any way with the senator, whose name is
Frank w. Haskell. &c.,. ..a..
Upon these facts principally and the
utter lack of proof against the accused the
committee based their report.

Concerning the prospective connection of
Titusville With Tidioute by railroad, the
Warren Mail states that the New York Cen
trail Railroad is negotiating for the purchase
or control of the Dunkrk and Warren Rail-
road with fair prospect Of success. In
this event it will become an important
thoroughfare, giving the Central access to
the oil regions directly aod adding largely
to its already heavy carrying trade. Ship
pers of oil would Of course be benefited by
this competition for freight, and the public
generally who consume oil aud coal wonld
be very likely to share in it's advantages.
In connection with this is movement
among capitalists for the construction OF a
railroad from Tidioute to Titusvile by way
Of South West, resulting probably in the
construction OF a connecting line between
Warren aud Tidiou.e on the other side Of
the river, for which there is already good
charter.

A "WIRE" COsTuME.-A amusing story
is told by the Rev. J. G. Wood in his re-.
Gently published Natural History of Man."
Illustrative OF. the power exer,ed by fashion
even on savage minds. 1t appears that an
English vessel reached an African port. a
large part Of her cargo consisting of iron
wire, nearly the whole of which was bought
by the natives and straigbtway disappeared
the crew being left TO conjecture what had
become oil 1t. But soon the solution of the
mystery was tonnd, for the Kaflir bellies ap.
peared in new and striking costume. -
Some of them had visited towns Inhabited
by Europeans, and there had seen some
wire ''csges' hanging outside drapers shops,
and which they were told were the fashion,
able attire of European ladies. This fact SO
cred them TO emulation that as soon as the
boat laden with wire appeared, they traded
for the new commodity, went away and
made "cages" such as they had seen, and
with them adorned their charms. not having
the slightest idea that anything but wire
was necessary to put them in iull European
costume.
