THE ANDERSON CAsE-The jury in
the case of Thomas F. Anderson, the
Titusville, Pa, bank officer who shot
himself dead, have returned verdict
of insanity. The investigation was
most searching and exhaustive, and the
evidence proved conclusively that Mr..
Anderson was deranged when he COM
mitted suicide. The bank accounts are
strictly accurate and no possible motive
existed for the sad occurrence. The re-
suit of the inquest proves conclusively
that he made no improper disposition
of his employers funds.

Jefferson's Official Delicacy.

Jefferson was clear in his great Office,
(Secretary of State under President
Washington,) and he lived up to his
great principles. Being asked by n
neighbor to write something that should
help him into Congress: Jefferson said,
"From n very early moment in my life,
determined never to intermeddle with
elections by the people, and have in
variably adhered to this determination.
Much as he loved his old friend and
secretary, William Short, he would not
assist him to sell the little public stock
which he possessed, saying: 81 would
do anything my duty. would permit ;
but were to advise your agent (who is
himself stock-seller) to sell out yours
at this or that moment, it would be used
as signal to guide speculation" In
vited to share in speculation, he
declined, on the ground that public
man should preserve his mind free from
all possible bias of interest. When the
fugitives from the ST. Domingo massacre
arrived in 1893, destitute and miserable,
he wrote to Monroe: "Never was so
deep n tragedy presented to the feelings
of man. I deny the power of the gener-
al government to apply money to such
purpose, but I deny it with bleeding
heart. 1t belongs to the state govern
ments. Pray urge ours to be liberal" Z"
In his French package came one day
letter from the wife of groom in the
stables of the Duke of Orleans in Paris,
addressed to her sister, poor woman
who lived fifteen miles from Monticello.
He was careful to rejoin it upon his
daughter not merely to forward the let
ter, but to send it to the woman's house
by special messenger. FLAMES Parton.
