THE REAs0N-The reason of the un-
precedented demand for DR.. Price 5
Cream Baking Powder and Special Fla
vorings, Vanilla, Lemon, etc, is the result
of their being just as represented, of su-
perior strength and uniform quality,
coupled with the equally potential fact
that they contain not one grain of adulter-
alton. Having thoroughly tested them
ourselves we have no hesitancy in saying
that they will accomplish just what is
claimed for them, and one single trial will
readily convince any person as to the truth
of our assertion.

The Death Of Louis Napoleon.

The death of Napoleon III, late Emperor Of
France took place yesterday morning. 1t was not
anticipated; but still as it had been made known
by telegraphic bulletins throughout the world,
that he had undergone a very difficult and dam
gerous surgical operation and was very i'll in con-
sequence, the announcement OF his death was not
30 much of a shock as it might have proved had
the cause which led TO it not been previously made
known. The demise OF one who had occupied so
conspicuous position as one of the great rulers,
swaying empires almost At his will, and receiving
hemage from great nation of which he was the
supreme head, but two years since, and yet no
disturbance in the political affairs of Europe oc-
cur, Is an event which seems to mark the progress
of the equalization Of man and prove that the days
of mOnarchies, empires and all other despOtic
governments, are approaching an end, and that
ultimately more liberal ins titutions will be sub
stituted for the despOtism that are now tottering
in many parts of the old world,

Notes on the InvestIgatIon.

From the Y. n. Tribune.
Has Mr.. oakes Anes any explanation TO offer
Of the rsmarkable discrepancy between his state-
ments about Mr.. ColfAx and the story of Mr..
Colfax hiraselfH Mr.. Ames was "pretty conf
dent" that the Vice-Presldent had paid him for
his stock, at par, In December 1867, or January,
1865, and that the money had never been returned;
II was his impression that he had drawn the divi,
dends and handed them over to Mr.. Colfax and
he believed that Mr.. Colfax still owned the stock,
though It has never been transferred to him.
Mr.. ColfaX declares, on the contrary, that he sur
rendered the stock after paying Mr.. Ames only
$500; that Ames still owes him that amount
that he told Mr.. Ames not TO trouble himself
about repayment; and that he never received any
dividends. Mr.. Ames has q very bad memory
but we cannot understand his forgetting an Incl
dent like that.
The value of Credit Mobilicr stock, which
Members of Congress were allowed to buy at par
(and pay for or not, as they pleased), may be es-
timated from the second days cross-examinatlOn
of Oakes Ames. Mr.. Ames testified that In a
period of 80 months, fromeApril, 1866, to Deeem-
ber, 1858, the Credit Mobilier declared twelve div
idends, amounting in the aggregate to 1,505 per
cent, and over 600 per cent of this was divided
after July 4, 1868. The thrifty legislators, there
fore, who bought shares at 100 In the Spring of
1858, got back six times as much as they put in
before the close of the year.
Mr.. Ames received from the trustees of the
Credit Mobilier S15 shares of stock, to be placed
in Washington ''where it would do ''most good"
We have not yet learned how he disposed of 1t.
He acknowledges assigning shares (some Of which
according to other testimony, wouldn't stay as
signed,) to the following persons: To MIR, Colfax,
20; Mr.. Patterson, so; Mr.. Henry Wilson, 20
Mr.. Painter, 80; MIR. Dawes, 10; Mr.. Bingham,
20; Mr. Garfield, 10; Mr.. Kelley, 10; Mr.. SEQ
field, 10; Mr.. James +. Wilson, 10; and Mr.. ALI
son, 10. Total, 160; leaving 1876 unaccounted for.
Who got themg Mr.. Ames was asked by the
Committee, "HaVe you mentioned all the mem
bcrs of COnpreRs who took stock in the Credit |
Mobilier =" and he replied, ~ have mentioned all
that have been named here" But Mr.. Ames,
ike the Hon. Sam Slingsby, has "a beast of a
memory" and he was little uncertain whether
here might not be other members of the House |
who ought to have been mentioned. II the Com |
nittee want to "investigate to find ont" we ad-
Use them to pursue this branch of the case a
little further.
Wilmington daily gazette., 1873-01-10

The conviction Of Archibald Given, one of tho
county tax collectors, in the L. S. Court, on
Thursday, and the heavy fine imposed upon him
will render action on the part of the Legislature
nocessary,tO define moro clearly the duty of such
officers or the county will not be able to get men
to serve in this capacity. 1t is maintained by
gentlemen who arc familiar with the charges
against Given that he prevented no man from
getting vote who was entitled to it; and that he
was, therefore, not guilty of the charges preferred
Whether guilty or not he at once paid the fine OF
$1,000 together with the costs in the case 1884 25;
making a total of g., ,3s425, and was discharged.
This is an enormous sum to take out of a mans
pocket who has a family to maintain, and we
presume there is scarcely another collector in the
county who could have paid SO much.
Its matter Of much regret that there should
arise any difficulty of such character. The Gov
ernment Fithin the last few years has added
many new laws 70 the statutes, and put them In
force on numerous occasions before even the
lawyers had time to become acquainted with
them. And it has not unfrequently been done
through political malice, and hence its acts arc
regarded as oppressive and despotic, and such as
no great government should innict upon its citi-
Hens. This was the complaint in many other
cases of different character from the present
Many Republican lawyers entered their protests
at the various bars throughout the country, be-
cause Of the enforcement Of laws that were not
understood BY the people, and before it was pos
sible for them to acquire a knowledge of their
existence.
We VIII venture that there Is not q collector in
the State that understands the laws under which
Given was convicted, and II seems that very few
of the most intelligent citizens are any better in
formed.

The heLagIsIature

session two and half days, would have been ac-
ceptable TO their constituents.
