Investigations Of the Case.

Investigations Of the Case.
The name Of the man who was burned to death
during the fire at 257 West Twenty-seventh street,
few nights ago, was Adrian Dyer. He worked at
repairing furniture, and being in his room at the
time the fre broke out was unable to escape and
consequently burned to DEATH Deceased, who
was about sixty years OF age and native OF North
Carolina, had never been married. He left several
bank books showing small deposits In the savings
institutions. -
The origin of the fire, concerning which there
appears to be some suspicion, will be thoroughly
investigated by the Fire Marshal. Coroner Schir-
mer has the case IN charge. The remains OF Mr..
Dyer were yesterday removed to the house OF
friend, 161 West Twenty seventh street.

The Ham Argument.

Once upon n time a man was arrest
ed for stealing cask Of hams. The
proof was positive against him, but to
the aStoniShment Of the Judge before
whom he was tried and to the witness
es and every spectator, he was acquit-
ted. He employed no lawyer to argue
in his favor, nor did he make any de-
fence L pom being inlerrogated as to
how such result was brought about
in the face Of the evidence against
him, he whispered in the ear Of a
friend, eleven Of that jury had some
of those hams
A parallel to this. may be found in
nearl = every case Of fraud that is
investigated by q congressional COM
miltec. The iuries are themselves
generally as guilty, in one way or an
other, as those who are brought before
them to be investigated. In the case
OF the French arms fraud, not Scna-
tor who was prominent in advocating
an investigation WAS permitted TO serve
upon the committee, in other cases
members were placed upon the com
mitteos who were openly accused OF
receiving part Of the stolen plunder
they were instructed to inquire about.
1t is onl ly waste Of time and money
to refer charges of fraud and corrup-
ton to congressional juries who may
have secured fat dividends from the
proceeds Of these very frauds and
corruptons. And so it will continue
until the people awake to conscious
ness Of the relations that exist betweel
them and the villains whom they have
entrusted with power, and who share
in the proceeds Of the outrages they
pretend to investigate. -Republica

The Massachusetts Homeopathic
Medical Society had a grand dinner
at Music Hall, Boston, the other day,
and the orator, DR.. Thos. y. Stone,
read a fine original poem headed "The
Cause Of Rip Van Wrinkles Long
Sleep" short, but very acceptable,
commencing with this verse
Van Wrinkle on the mountain sleeps,
His rusting gun beside.
Though long his dog has ceased to bark,
Dame Winkle ceased to chide.
The last four verses OF the doctors
poem were as follows
Why sleeps he thus what potent spell
Was DER poor Winkle cast,
Unbroken by the battles roar
Or winters hOwing blast
What Letnean draught was in the keg
That bearded Dutchman bore
When mid the plight of future years,
Will Wrinkles nap be O'or ;
These questions grave had puzzled brains
And sent them to their rest,
Till Yankee shrewd. one summer morn
Searched meath that tattered vest,-
And there he found-no mighty dose.
OF powder Or of pill,
But vial small and on its cork
eciionth-Pulsatil !"
The last line refers to an infinitessi
NAL homeopathic dose of the her
"pulsatila."

The Bangor Democrat makes its
point rather cleverly when it says:
Sour genial neighbor of the Wing
is anxious that we should quote some
of the hard things that Horace Greeley
used, to say about the Democracy.
We prefer the good things he is now
saying. The things that Paul said
after that remarkable MONDAY vision
are remembered and repeated by the
whole Christian world, while the things
that Saul did before the vision of light
are forgotten.
