TIE OAKKs AMEs BRIBERY-THR
TRUTH ABOUT THE MATTER. The New
York Sun, of Tuesday last, publishes the
following:
A meeting OF certain prominent
Grant managers. including, as we are in
formed, Henry Wilson, candidate for
Vice President, took place in this city
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on Friday
evening last. Oakes Ames, member OF
Congress for the Second District OF Mas
sachusetts. and bribery agent of the
Credit Mobilier, was present by. special
request. The purpose Of this meeting
was TO obtain from Ames broad, square
ana comprehensive denial of the facts
stated In his LISTERS to Colonel 81. S.
McComb, presented aud sworn to among
the testimony in the case now pending
In the Supreme Court Of Pennsylvania.
and also Of the list of members of Con
gross bribed by Ames with Credit Mo-
bilier stock, which Colonel MoComb
copied on February %, 1868, in Ames'
presence, from list which Ames took
out OF his pocket and showed him.
Such broad. square. comprehensive
and complete denial was prepared for
Ames signature, and it was intended to
publish it in the morning journals of
>''-sNAUSJ '"ooS ouo w LoAtSTHpu IL al
over the Union. But when it came to
the point Of signing and sending out this
enormous lie, Mr.. Ames did not do IT,.
The evidence in the hands of Colonel
McComb, and the evidence, part of
which is within our knowledge, and part
OF which has never been produced in
any public manner, is 30 overwhelming,
that Ames felt it to BIZ impossible to sign
and publish such lie. He refused the
demand made upon him by those whom
ne had bribed and by the managers of
his party. The denial which was to
have been published with Ames' sigma.
ture was thus OF necessity abandoned,
and the only denials that are now to be
made are evasive and deee;tful ones, like
those OF Speaker Blaine and Henry l..
Dawes. These denials. as our readers
have ample means OF convincing them.
selves, are nothing but confessions of
the villainy.
No denial can now be worth anything
that is not signed and sworn to By Cakes
Ames and by the men whom he has
accused OF receiving the brides, and
confirmed by other evidence OF the most
substantial nature. Mere personal de.
mails, such as might have satisfied the
public fortnight ago, will now answer
no purpose except to convince the peo-
pie that the party denying is really
guilty.
