FROM NEW YORK.

New York, Sept. 5. Observing in the
newspapers a charge of alleged defalca,ion
on my part while auditor of the State of Min
nesota, purporting to be the substance of a
report Of committee appointed by the last
legislature, have to request suspension of
public opinion until can have an opportu-
nifty to refute the false and malicious charges
thus made against me. The committee in
question has acted entirely "exparte', hold
ing secret session, and giving me no opportu-
nifty to cross-examine witness or explain my
official transactions. Its duty was to report
to the next legislature, and not before, and
its present report is wholly unauthorized, and
is made prematurely for political effect.
need only say that at proper time shall be
prepared to verify my accounts, vindcate my
character and show the utter falsity of every
material statement and conclusion to my
prejudice put forth by the committee. To
those who know me at my place of residence
and know the circumstances connected with
the appointment of this committee and the
character of its proceedings, it would not be
necessary to make even this explanation.
(Signed) CHAs. McGRATu,
Late Auditor Of the State of Minnesota.

They have had a marvel at Old Orchard
Beach this season in the person of Miss Chase
of Lowell, Mass. She performs every day
the difficult feat of launching her boat among
the breakers, which is never attempted by a
man unless acquainted with the place. A few
days ago she rowed to the Pool and back,
twelve miles. Every afternoon the visitors
throng to the beach to see her pull. The
other day she invited one of those lawful
nice" young gentlemen a. the beach to 60 out
with her, and large crowd went down to see
them off. They cleared the first two rollers
successfully, but when they reached the third
the girl let the boat tip over in ten feet of
water. They both swan ashore-he sheepish
and she triumphant.
