HEROIC ACCOMPLISHMENTS Prus-

limits of the fort immense quantities of
ammunition are now manufactured. The
process of making shells is finished by the
sealing Of each with boiling pitch. Each
shell must be held, singly, over the vessel
of pitch, while another man seals it. AS
might be expected, the operation is a tick
lish one, as all about are scattered piles of
shells, sealed or otherwise. Recently a
man who was holding shell let it fall in
to the vessel of boiling pitch, when the
Chief of Ordnance, who was standing near
experimenting the operations, without

flung it into tub of cold water standing

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Shernlan's
resolution, instructing the Judiciary Com
mittee to report on the Ku-Klux bill was
discussed all day. Sherman, in supporting
his resolution, said that in eleven Southern
States the public condition was one of un-
prralleled horror and anarchy. Davis,
stevenson, johnson and Lewis spoke.
Lewis said Virginia was as peaceful as any
State in the Union. He denied the exist
snce of Ku-Klux organizations there.
Johnson supported his colleague. Eher-
man replied that he could substantiate the
assertions of the preamble to the resolu-
ton, which asserts liz effect, the subyersion
by armed, disguised and lawless men,
mainly soldiers of the late rebel armies,
of all civil authority, in large parts of the
late insurrectionary States; that persons
and property are unsafe, the rights of cit
liens denied, and the courts poweriess, by
organized perjury, to punish crime. Sher-
man went on TO give an epitome of the ev-
idenee elected by the Outrage Conlnitte.
Bayard speaks on Monday.
Unless the extremists are choked off the
session will be indefinitely prolonged.

G'Donovan Rosa, Mulleda, Bourke,
Power, and Walsh, the recently arrived
exiles, have issued an address to the Irish

There ) a small mistake my unknown friend,
The correction of which herewith send,
Concerning Maud Muller, who raked the hay
On that pleasant, sunny, summer day.
The Maud Muller TO whom 7 allude
Had no brother Ben that could intrude
One brother she had, indeed, but he
Was far away and over the sea-
Though Maud raked hay, she raked with grace
That showed she was very much out of place;
And the Judge, accustomed to read mankind,
Looked through her face and into the mind
Maud's family circle was very small,
She and her mother, they were all,
w o went that day TO the Judges hall
That Maud bore children is not denied,
She reared them, too with honest PRIDE
She taught them what we all should know,
That titles, and wealth, and outside show,
Have little value if not combined
With noble qualities of mind.
But, alas !! for Maud, and alas for the Judge,
When honest love is secuted as fudge,
When adjoining properties are wed,
While their oloTers are simply put TO bed,
When rich men toady to the great,
The poor to those of large estate,
When the plain spoken farmer is despised,
The smooth-tongued scoundrel patroniZed.
lis sad these silly things to see,
Which are, yet never ought to be.

FINDING that JEWELL received one
hundred votes less than were officially
reported in the Fourth ward Of the city
Of New Haven, the Radical counting
committee is trying to find 579 men to
swear that they voted for JEWELL IN
that ward. 1t is said that more than a
thousand such affdavits were offered
bv persons who had been imported
from New York for that purpose, but
the supply being greater than the de-
mand they were compelled to shut
down and, at last accounts, had stopped
at $50, the presumption being that ex-
exactly nineteen Radical voters Of that
ward are now absent from home.
The whole thing is very broad
farce, illegal and unconstitutional In
the beginning, and it is merely the de-
vice Of defeated party to make up by
fraud what they lacked IN votes. The
probability is that Governor ENGLISH
will be deprived of the office to which
he has been fairly elected, the determi-
nation Of the question being almost en-
tirelv in the hands Of his political foes.
