Butler to take Hand in Credit MobiIier

The Washington correspondent OF the
Boston Herald says -
A sensation in the House of Represen-
tatives, growing out of the operations of
the Credit Moblier squad Of members, IS
expected to occur as soon as that body
reassembles. Gen. Butler is regarded as
the knight errant in this matter. 1t is ex-
pected that he will ress his Republican
brethren, who are now on the prisoners
stand, SO to speak, to give q tuil account
Of themselves and to show cause why
they should not stand down from the
prominent places which several of them
occupy. His movement is aimed, of
course, at Mr.. Dawes, whom he hopes
to place at disadvantage in future poiti-
cal contests in Massachusetts, and of
course in the coming canvass for Senator,
in which he is to be the opponent of
the generals friend, Mr.. Boutwell,. Ii is
now clearly apparent that in spite of the
campaign denials, all the public men
whose names were used in connection
with Credit Mobilier are more or less i'm
plicated, and it is asserted by the know
ing ones that Mr.. Boutwell, also had some
transactions with Mr.. Ames which will
come out if the whole truth can be got at.

Four Persons Convicted Of Murder by a
Paper Gun Wad.

From the Austin Texas Statesman, Dec. 49,
Ben Shelby, Arthur Shelby, Ball Woods,
and William Smith We're convicted Of
murder in the first degree, in Burnett
county this week, and sentenced by Judge
Turner to be hanged on Friday the 18th
Of January next. The prosecution was
conducted by Judges Terrell and Walker,
employed by the friends of the murdered
man. The case was one of the most in
teresting in the annals of criminal trials
and the evidence, though conclusive, was
entirely circumstantial Ben Mckeever,
the murdered man, was shot from his
horse at night near the residence of the
Shelbys, his throat cut, and his body
carried on horse back three miles and
thrown into Il cave IN the prairie $50 feet
deep. A large rock was placed on the
bloody spot where his throat was cut, and
apparently every precaution was taken to
avoid detection. The appearance of the
rock indicated to the keen eye of the
trontiersman that it had been recently
placed there. Close by it was paper wad
ing that had been fired from shotgun
On examining the gun of Ben Shelby, pa
per wading was found in it, and another
piece OF paper that had evidently been fired
from q SHOT gun under ShelbyS doorstep.
In the house was found the Chimney Cor
ner periodical, and it was ascertained by
comparison that the three pieces of wad-
ing had been torn from that paper. A
small fragment of Mckeever's coat of a
peculiar texture, found at the bloody spot,
revealed the fact that the murder had been
committed there. There were many other
circumstances pointing to the accused per
sons as the murderers, but one deserves
especial mention. On carefully placing
the paper found where the blood had been
covered by the rock, and comparing ii
with the wadding found in Ben. Shelby's
gun, the following enigma could be read
from one paper to another:
with piece Of paper or slate,
Sit round the fire both large and small;
A letter make, almost an eight,

WASHINGTON. Dec 80 The intrigue to
influence the senatorial election in Massa-
chusetts next February by the use of a
part OF The evidence in the Credit Mobilier
Investigations, is the subject of good
deal OF talk here. 1t is generally believed
that Mr.. Boutwell, had quite as much share
in the Credit Mobilier business, while he
was a member of Congress, as Mr.. Dawes.
One version of the matter, which may or
may not be true, is that Mr.. Boutwell,
borrowed money of Cakes Ames and sub
sequently Ames rendered him some Credit
Mobilier shares and offered to carry them
for him and pay the debt out Of the divi-
dends. When it appeared that trouble
was likely to come out of the affair Mr..
Boutwell, is said to have fastened to
cancel the arrangement and pay back the
borrowed money.
Mr.. Boutwell,, however, occupies very
different position from the members of
Congress, who, after accepting the shares,
boldly voted to exempt the Union Pacific
road from the payment of the interest on
the BONDS guaranteed by the Government,
thus relieving the road from the claim
upon it by Mr.. Boutwell, as Secretary of
the Treasury, and thereby taking millions
of dollars out of the pockets of the people,
saving Mr.. Ames and his associates from
bankruptcy with which they We're then
threatened by the depreciation of the stock
of the company. 1t is true that Gen. But
Ter never had any stock of the Credit
Mobelier, but he is said to have been the
attorney of the concern. which position
must have enabled him to have become
quite familiar with its affairs

Maine Agricultural COLLEGE.

The Hon. Abner Coburn, President OF
the Board of Trustees, has prepared his
annual report, the more important features
OF which we condense.
The modified and enlarged course of
instruction, determined on in the fall OF
1861. has in a measure been carried out,
and as a consequence the numDer OF
students has been largely increased
Seventv-one names are now on the roll :;
ct these. p belong to the lower classes !;
the Freshmen class numbers 30, with a
prospect of speedy increase. There are
accommodations for 1875 students The
students have promptly and cheertully per-
formed the tasks assigned them, whether
OF study or of work. Four years of ex-
perience and observation has confirmed
the conviction of the Trustees and officers
that manual labor is a most valuable
auxiliary to study and health.
A house for the use of the President
and his family has been built, and will be
ready for occupany the present winter.
The report of the Treasurer, Hon Isaiah
Stetson of this city, shows however, that
a debt has been contracted, over and above
the receipts, which must be provided for
by the legislature There are also further
improvements to be provided tor-among
them barn, work shop, Professors house,
additional apparatus for civil engineering,
and the chemistry and natural history de-
partment.
A barn, such as needed, would cost S. 00C
