Private Talk Made Public

There are certain vagabonds
attached to- the political press
whose mission it seems to be to
pump public men. They APP
pear to have rowing commission
from their employers for this
purpose, and they wander up and
down the country making calls
on celebrities and notorieties of
both parties, with the design of
retailing in the shape of news
paper correspondence whatever
their entertainers may let fall in
the course Of conversation on
the leading topics of the day.
1t may be that such men as But
Ter and Brownlow are glad Of
the opportunity to ventilate
their viewsin this vicarious way
butw cannot believe that gentle
men like TO be thus shown up
by the detectives Of journalism.
The writers who engage in this
dirty work usually give the re-
suits Of their inquisitions in dia-
legue form-their reports Of
confidential interviews with
governors and other dignitaries
reading very much like the cross
examinations of witnesses in
courts of law. The revelations
of Bolts, after sleeping with
President Tyler, were far less
comprehensive than the disclos-
ures made by someof these BRAIN
pickers. One Of them, for eX-
ample, who has recently sucked
the Uranium of a Massachusetts
senator perfectly dry, profess
ses not only to know what his
political sentiments are n0W, but
what they avW be. He says he
has ascertained the ideas (which

How he was Detected.

A murder was committed at
Coldwater, Miss. DIR. Richie,
a citizen of a neighboring town,
a local paper says, was on lit
tie spree, and the murder at
Coldwater being fresh in his
mind, he accused every one he
met in a jocular way, of being
the man who had committed the
murder. Finally he met a stran-
ger, and being just tipsy enough
not to care whom he accosted or
what he said, he addressed the
stranger in the same manner
i"Yes-you-yOu are the man
who murdered johnson at Cold
water" A look of guilt over
spread the mans face and SIM
ultaneously he ran his hand in
his bosom as if to draw a weap-
on. DIR. Richie, observing the
movement, collared him with his
left hand and with his right drew
a dirk from his pocket, and hold
ing it threatening above him,
told him if he attempted to draw
a weapon he would plunge that
! knife to his heart in a second.
He then commanded the man to
withdraw his hand from his bo-
som, which command was speed
lily obeyed, when, instead Of a
weapon, the man drew out the
sum ofS1, 100, which he dropped
on the ground at his feet, and
which he had taken from the
body of the murdered man.
Meanwhile a crowd had gathered
around the doctor and his pris-
oner, and the evidence of the
mans guilt was by this time sc
palpable that he was declared tc
be under arrest and securely tied

Compelled to Pay.
A Bride Sues Her Father for a
Marriage Gift.

A suit has just been tried be-
fore the Supreme Judicial Court
Of New Hampshire, in which
DR.. Edward Sharp, of Philadel-
phia, was plaintiff, and Reuben
B. Hall, Of Nashua, defendant.
The Doctor was married to Miss
Hall at Philadelphia in Septem-
Der, 1870, and Mr.. and Mrs. Hall,
the parents of the bride, were
present at the ceremony, which
took place at the residence Of
Mr.. Washington Bladin, Of
Philadelphia. About an hour
before the marriage Mr.. Hall,
the father Of the bride, signed a
bond agreeing to pay his daugh-
ter, during her life, 81, 200 an
nually, or the interest on $780,
900.
Mr.. Hall after the marriage,
refused to fulfill the conditions
Of the bond, and this suit was
brought to compel him to do so.
The defendant claimed that the
bond was obtained by fraud.
He testified that on the morning
Of the marriage his daughter
told him that DR.. Sharp would
not marry her if bridal gift of
$4,000 was not made to her
and that she would consequent
ly be ruined. The defendant
claimed that there was a con-
spiracy on the part Of the daugh-
ter and DIR. Sharp to rob him of
a large sum of money. Mrs
Hall corroborated her husbands
testimony. Mrs. Sharp, the
bride, denied the statement of
her father, and testified that he
voluntarily signed the bond
Mr.. Bladin, who drew the bond
testified to the same effect
The jury rendered a verdict fol
the plaintiff.

Mrs. Sutton, a sister of Stokes,

PerfdY.

The Radicals have managed
to secure a majority in the Sen
ate of Alabama by an act of
perfdy which is almost without
a parallel even in the history of
that party. Democracy had
strength enough to defeat any
Objectionable measure-in fact,
the two parties were evenly
balanced. There was a contes-
ted seat, however, and the result
of the contest would determine
the future complexion Of the
body. At this junctTe Of affairs
Democratic Senator named
Edwards had to go home for a
few days. Before leaving the
capital he "paired off" in parlia-
mentary phrase, with Radical
Senator named Glass, who had
also obtained leave of absence,
on this question. The latter
pledged his honor as a Senator
and his word as a Mason, that
if he returned first he would not
vote until the former arrived,
and that he would wait on him
for fifteen days, Of course the
result of such an arrangement
is easily foreseen. The Radical
never vert home, but skulked
about the city until the resolu-
ton came up, and then voted for
it and secured the seating Of his
brother Radical. Of course he
never intended to go away, but
assisted his party, by what he
.thoughtavery justifiablescheme,
even though it involved false
saCeGTing.

This Boiler operates upon purely Philos-

dispenses entirely with Labor and Wear

The hotsuds and steam, by ths action of

upon the clothes and forced through the

perfectly without any rubbing, 1t has been
thoroughly tested, and pronounced Une-
qualed as Clothes Washer by those who
have used 1t.
All fabrics, from the finest laces to the

the rubbing, rolling, and pressing process
must necessarily full them more or less.
