ceived April is, 1868, and the other July
IL, 1868, had nothing to do with the
source of the funds deposited june %,
1868, just after the date of Ames' check.
To sum up: Mr. Colfax tells story
consistent with itself. If the circum-
stances of his connection with Ames are
correctly stated by him, they do not adj
NIT of positive proof, and the want of
such proof is not fair ground of sus-
picion against him. To believe that
Mr.. Colfax's account is false, is to be-
heve that he and three or four members
of his family have conspired to swear
falsely to exculpate him. We do not
incline to that alternative. Did. then.
Mr.. Ames swear falsely? That is not
impossible. He admits that he did SO
in effect in his testimony. He also ad-
mits that his motives were of a dishon-
orable kind in the whole transaction.
Of the two he is far more likely to bear
false witness than Mr. Colfax. But WHY
should he do so? We do not know. He
may have felt himself impelled to it by
revenge for the odium his own frank
confession of corruption unexpectedly
brought upon him. Whatever his mo-
1--WE, III IeHalIlS True tHdG MS assertions
are not provel., and that he has i'm
peached his own testimony.
Is Mr.. Colfax blameless, then? We
have already said that he was far from
being SO, as concerns the propriety of
his original contract to purchase. That
suggests the single conclusive lesson of
this whole case, that if Mr.. Colfax had
left the Credit Mobilier swindle wholly
alone, he would have escaped the cruel
conviction from which he is suffering

A Man Without Muscles.

A faro-dealer in this city about four
years ago was compelled to relinquish
his profession by paralysis of his right
fore-fnger. The nerve cell Gin the spinal
column) which supplied the joint had
died from Overwork, and the muscle of
the finger gradually passed away through
disuse- atrophied, the doctors call It.
The dead cell in the spinal marrow in
some way, in contact or sympathy, de-
stroyed its neighbor, which controlled
the same finger on the left hand. The
atrophy extended over both hands, up
the arms, to the chest, shoulders and
neck. At the present time there is not
muscle In those portions of the mans
body The arms hang useless and abso
lutely feshless-mere skin and bone.
The lntercostal muscles are gone, and
the man can make no respiratory move
ments requiring their action; the neck Is
nsophagus, trachea, and spinal column
clad in skin, and that is all-the pro-
cesses of the latter standing out as plain
" as in a skeleton. The head, unsup-
ported. hangs down on the chest, as if it
were merely tied on By movement of
the loins the man can throw his head
over SO that it will fall resting on his
shoulders and back, but otherwise than
thus, mechanically, he cannot control it's
motion. What parts the disease will next
attack is question with the physicians
at Bellevue, where the case was shown
yesterday, but the result is hardly doubt
full. Breathing is done wholly now by
the diaphragm, and must cease if that be
attacked-Neao York World.

The cavalry charged the mob, who made

by the fact that two days after it's date
Mr.. Colfax deposited in bank, with GER
tain checks, currency to the exact amount
of the check 81, 200. To meet this Mr..
Colfax has two lines of defense. One is
that Mr.. Ames is not credible witness,
he having declared on Jan. % that he
deliberately swore to falsehood in tes-
tifying that he could not remember pay
ing dividend to Mr. Colfax, though at
the time he knew he had paid one of
81 200. The second defense is that the
81 200 deposited in bank on the 22d of
June were received from other sources.
Two hundred dollars came from his
father-in-law, in payment of debt. One
thousand dollars from Mr.. Nesbitt, of
New York. as contribution to election
expenses. This statement is variously
confirmed: first, by the testimony of the
father-in-law to the payment of the.$200
by him second, by the production of a
draft for 81, 900 purchased of the bank
on the day of the deposit, and sent to the
Chairman of the State Committee of In
diana; third, by the testimony of Mr..
Colfax's father-in-law and of Mr.. Col
fax's half-sister to the receipt of the re-
mittance from Nesbitt and fourth, by
letter from a sister in Iowa, testifying
that Mrs. Colfax had written to her con-
corning 81 ZOO bill sent to her son.
Against Mr.. Colfax's statement it is
alleged that it cannot be affirmatively
proved. That is so. The statement may
be true nevertheless It is also alleged
that Mr.. Colfax concealed in his first
statement the receipt of two other sums
of 81, 900 each from MIR. Nesbitt. Of
this fact it is to be said that his counsel
advised him that the matter was irrele-

could suggest. Many of them were contri-
buttons from friends of the family. The SER
vices were in the form prescribed by the Uni
tartan church. Rev. L. Chaffir, pastor of the
North Eastern church, read the burial ser
vice, and the choir sang "Cast thy burden
on the Lord" Rev. Rush r. Shipper of the
American Unitarian Association, delivered
brief eulogy, in which the private life and
virtues of the deceased, and his disintered
generosity to others in tribulation, were re-
counted. His loyalty to his country in her
time of trouble was set forth, and the benefits
to the world and to the American nation that
were to follow the results of his boldness in
enterprise were duly enlarged upon.
Rev. c. c. Hussey of Bellerica, formerly
OF North Easton, spoke Of the deceased as
he had known him when in his pastorate, as
practical Christian, with no special technical
questions that disturbed the church. Prayer
was offered by Rev. Mr.. Shipper. "Thy
will be done" was chanted, the benediction
was pronounced, and the body was taken to
Easton Cemetery followed by long cortege,
the workmen in the employ of Oliver Ames
& Sons, four hundred in number, marching
in procession. At least three thousand peo-

Funeral of Cakes Ames.

Boston, II. North Easton was filed with
people to-day, in spite of an almost incessant
rain fall, anxious to pay their last mark of re-
spect to the remains Of Hon. Cakes Amss.
Railroad trains from Boston, Fall River and
Canton, brought many gentlemen who had
business interests with the deceased during
his life, and the train from Boston contained
among its $50 passengers, Vice President
Wilson, Senator Boutwell, and Lieut.. Gov of
Mass, the President of the Senate, the
Speaker of the House of Representatives and
several past and present members of the gov
ernor's council, Of which Mr.. Ames was q
member during Gov. Andrews and Clafin's
administration. Other eminent gentlemen
were present. But small proportion of the
large assemblage had an opportunity to listen
to the services, but all who desired were per-
mitted to view tho body as it lay in plain
casket covered with br0adcloth, in an apart
ment of the unostentatious family mansion.
The floral tributes were Of the choicest de-
