The Credit ID /. bilier Rascality,

Inc resolution adopted py Congress On the
Oh requesting the Credit Mobiler Committee
;"s.t with open doors, has induced the Com.
lat late, and the newspaper reporters have
FINISHED the press with daily details OF the
IN 7estigation since. The result is the uncloak-
Ing of state of rottenness and corruption
ed. 1t Is placed beyond a chance for doubt
or dispute, 'ha} Il large numler of members of
congress are deiiled with tha pitch, including
Wee President Coltax, Senator (now Vice
Presidency Wilson, Representatives Bingham,
Garfield, Kelly, Brooks, Allison, Patterson,
and many Others. They not only took this
stock because it was offered to them rs good
spernlntIon. but. as Mr.. Ames said in his letter
t" Nc Cont. it was intended as tribe. Every
body knows that members Of congress are
bribcd, and everybody does it" is the language
of The virtuous Massachusetts, representative,
NJ. Ames.
As some of our readers have asked US what
Is exactly meant by this Credit Mobiller," we
will try to explain, IN few words. The Pa
cifc RAILROAD Company was corporation
composed Of about seven individuals. Those
gent emcn pretended t. hold all the stock OF
the company, calling 1t some $50, 100000. Not
Il dollar of this stock, however, was ever paid
in. The company got an enormous grant OF
land from cogresS, equal in area to the state of
Ohio, and in addition the government loaned
Tor rather gece) tie company its bonds to an
amount equal to nbout $40 600 mile of the
road; and in addition to this the company
borrowed on It's own bonds, mortgagng the
road tor their payment, a sum equivalent to
about $3.50 per mile thus having, besides
the enormous land grant, full $4,000 per
mile of cash TO build the road with As it
would not look well for the company to award
the contracts for building the road to its own
directors GALL the members were directors) they
formed ''ring within the rlng,' and, u lder a
Pennsylvania charter, organized themselves
another company, calling 1t tine Credit Mo
biher," and to this company they awarded the
contracts to build the road. the stockholders
OF the Credit Mobilier dividing the profits.
As the road cost but about S32 900 per mile,
and the company had given to them SO, 900
per nile to build the road with, some idea
may be formed of the amount of the s,ea,lpgs
of the Credit Moblier. The stock which this
company issued TO members of congress was
nothing but a mere evidence of the share the
holders should have in the division Of tn sse
stealings. Of course all the members of con-
gress understood tn S and that the idea OF pay
ing Tor this stock was fully known to be a
sham.

We shall not dcncuncc the State Board for
their bad faith to Ottawa, Tor, like the man

AN ENocH ARDEN CASE WITH VAR1A.
TIoNs. In the month of May, 1854.
Dominick Mclaughlin, laborer, then
about twenty-nine years of age, was
united in marriage to Mary Cassidy, his
Junior BY some years, at ono of the Ca.
tholic churches in this city. They went
to housekeeping in South Troy, and
seemed to got along nicely; but after
living together about three weeks.
Mclaughlin suddenly left for parts nm.
known. About eight months after his
departure, Mrs. Mclaughlin gave birth
to child, which soon died. Nine wears
passed, and hearing nothing Of her hus-
band. Mrs. Mclaughlin was wooed by
one Thomas Finn, also of this city, and
thinking that her former husband must
be dead, consented to cast her lot with
him. They were accordingly married,
and lived happily together for about
eighteen months, when son was born:
after tho child's birth, Finn seemed to
be changed man. and, following
McLaughlin's example, he soon left her,
and has not since beon heard of. Some
say no Is dead, while others are confident
that he is not, though no one has seen
or heard from him.
Soon after Finn's departure, the child
died, and Mrs. Finn, alias Mrs. Nc.
Laughlin, concluding TINT she had seen
enough of married life, resumed her
maiden namo md began her own sup.
port, working hard and steadily, washing
and cleaning, and it is snid that she has
eaved considerable money. She resided
in Pound Alley, which is just above
Eighth street, between Ferry and Con-
gress streets.
On tho Oath OF last December, while
pursuing her duly avocation at her
home, she was surprised by tho entrance
OF nm elderly man who addressed her
as "Mary." She did not recognize him
until ho told her who ho washer first
husband, Mclaughlin. He gave no
cause for his sudden departure, only
saying that some hidden impulse drow
him away. He had been over nearly all
tho States in the Union, working on
railroads, as N sons laborer, and in
numerous other employments. He told
her that he had snved money, and as q
proof Of it put 81, 900 in her lap, saying,
"There. Mary, is Christmas presen!
for YOU" A mutual reconciliation and
reunion followed. Troy Wig, Oh.
