RUIN OF cOLFAx's DEFENSE.

THE LAST PROP GoNE-THE FATAL RANK
ACCOUNT AGAIN-THREE CHECKS INSTEAD
OF ONE FROM Mr.. NEsBITT.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1Y.-The lat remaining
prop which supported the failing reputation OF
Vice President Colfax was knocked out to daV
The bank where his accounts were kept has
been visited lately by a member Of the Poland
Committee, and the record Of two checks or
drafts was discovered to the order Of Mr.. Colfax
from Mr. Neebitt The record shows that one
was deposited in April, and the other on July
IL, 1868. The deposit Of $1,000 in bills By Mr..
Coliax on July 20 was explained by him in his
statement lately as being in part the receipt Of
SlOOO as present from Nesbiit, received by
mail.
While il locked little unusual for business
man oi Mr. NesbitI's experience and sagacity 10
send 800 bill by mail 10 high Official with
out letting his clerks, partner, banker, or some
friend know Of IT, aud while il was regarded ~
still more remarkable that statesman Of Mr..
COlfax's standing would accept present from
business man having dealings with the Govern
menl, yet in The face Of all this, there were
many who regarded the Vice President as
gnlltless OF deliberate falsehood as Of bribery,
notwithstanding the absence Of both the letter
oil transnfitIal and the letter Of acknowledge
ment.
Oakes Ames' memorandum book showed TO
the COMMITTEES that $1,000 was paid, and all the
circumstances sustained his statement, vet Mr..
Ooliax testified he got $1,000 Of the $1,000 from
Mr.. NesoItt. It now appears that in April, three
moRihs previous, he received $1,000 from Mr..
Nesbltt, IN a check or draft, and that on July
10, or in less than three weeks afler the alleged
receipt by MIR. Colfax OF $1,000 in money by
letter.he received another check Tor $1,000 from
| Mr.. Nesbi't
This shows, IL Mr.. Colfax's $1,000 bill story j.
believed, that he received from this contractor
who was very largely engaged in supplying
stationery to the Government, and who was an
almost total stranger, in three months time tbs
sum of $4,000 or $1,000 a month.
II also shows that MIR. Nesbiit sent SlOOC
DRAFT TO Mr.. COliax on two occasions and ye
on third he sent 1t recklessly BY mail in IhC
iorm oi bill, the letter accompanying it saying
that he was not much acquainted with the Vic
President elect, but had great admiration fol
him. This Is not the sort Of letter that woulC
usually be written after $1,000 had already seeI
sent to the same man.
In addition TO all this. Mr.. COlax addresses
q letter lfst evening TO the Poland COMMITTEES
stating that in hiS testimony on Tuesday he ha'
entlrely forgotten 10 mention that he received
$1,000 daft for Mr.. Nesbln on July 13, in ad
dillon to bis $1,000 contribution previously men
toned.
} All this is looked upon here even nor; whe
bad memory and evasion are having q caruiVa
IN the Capitol, with amazement. The more 8

said he was confident he did not receive III

Worse and Worse for volfax.

WAaHNefON, Feb l8--The case Of Colfax is
daiiy growing worse and worse. Judge Poland,
1T the suggestion Of tho committee Of which he il
chairman, visited the First National Bank a few
days SINCE and made a careful examination Of Col
taH's bank account. He found that in April. 1868
MI Colfax received from Geo NJ Nesbit OF New
York ", 600 check, and on the 18th Of July OF
the sams year anothOr check for tha same
amount Two days after the committee had in-
struesed Judge folsHd to make this examination
Mr.. Collax. learning their intention. addressed a
letter to the Chairman, in which he admits he had
concealed these facts, but having since found a
portions ef the kttere Of Mr.. Nesbitt, he communal.
Gated the fact to the committee. These knock
the last prop from his extraordinary defence, and
IT is the universal opinion that when all the facts
in his clse come before the House IN the evidence
whiolf accompanies Poland's report he will be i'm
peaohcd,

A writer in the Tribune makes peculiar
appeal to the Credit MObilier Representatives
and Senators. He wants to know whether there
is not among them "a heart great enough to
grasp the aWfulness Of the hour;;' and he calls
upon the spirit Of prophecy to enter some one Of
these hearts. "WheEe is the man p he excIaiIns.
Let him rise IN his majesty and his might AMI
confees all his wrong; let him move his own
expulsion; let him condemn for his country's
hodUr his oWn name 10 everlasting infamy ("
We suggest that this is asking a good deal
When Coliax or Kelley or Oakes Ames moves
his own expulsion we trust the fact will be gen.
orally repdrted in the newspapers. As for
c>ndemning their NAMES to lasting infamy, that
is already done. 'ftt
