sas:
HOW POKER JACK INTERVIEWED LANDAuLET VIII
LIAMs.
There IS McClure-Pokcr Jack they call him
IA perfect Is pc Of the Arkausas carpet-hagger.
The best Illustration can give Of McClure's
character is by describing nm interview between
him and Attorney General Williams last win
ter. after the Administration had acted in favor
of Baxter. Mcclure came to Washington with
hts blue eyes full of blood. The opinion Of
the Attorney General had struck him in the
region Of The diaphragm, and 10 say he was
mad would he 10 draw il very mild lie went
up to the Department Of Justice and demanded
to see Williams. That functionary received
him.
% ! am Chief Justice Mcclure Of Arkansas,
he began. ''and have read your opinion on
the case recently decided by the President
Now, sir, wish o say thai ;he papers on which
you besed your opinion, and which you refer
TO as having been certified 20 yon by be clerk
Of my court are either forged or garhed ("

10 the Attorney General
81 say. sir, replied The imperiuralle Nc
Clnre. " that ] believe these papers are either
forged or that the new matter has been inter-
pola,ed in them. aud ! say, farther sir, that
the reputation Of your Department and the
known character Of yourself incline me TO the
belief thai hose frauds haye been enacted in
your office and by your instigaion or conniv-
ance.n
"what do yon mean, sir?,' gasped the
breafbess Williams.
81 mean just what ! say replied Mcclure
still as cool a refrigerator, 'hnd ! want to
see the originals Of those papers which You
claim have been certified TO you by the clerk Of
my court"
II haze sent Them to the Senate, sir, (" said
Williams
''You talk like man that is lying, said
Mcclure. "In fact, sir believe ven are "
ing. Not TO put loo fine point upon it, you
are id liar, sir. Original papers are never
sent 10 the Senate or the House except by spe-
cial demand for them. The resolution of the
Senate in regard to these Papers called for
copies, and copies were sent. You do not wish
me 10 see the originals, sir, for tear That will
detect the interpretations that have eeE per-
peIrated in your office. believe you have

ment who is capable Of resenting anything

70 the pressure Of money power or the men Of
large incomes in the cities. The Government
is Of more importance to them, ! think, TO pro-
tecl their possessions, fhan il is to the poor
man, and they should bear their SHIRE. If we
were 10 send more common business men TO
Congress TO carry on the affairs Of the country
more as they would their private business,
there would he less hard iimes and more hard
money. The best way to get the hard money
is TO find out the way to make the internal
business profitable; and think the only way
10 do that is lie way that ! have mentioned.
Money must be gotten before il can be paid.

during the progress of the trial of the case
of Cant VS.. Iluddleson, an action for DANA

ness stand. He had jast passed through a
rigid cross-examination by the counsel for
the plaintiff, when he was observed to fall
back in the chair on which he was sitting at
tlle time, and on being reached by those pre-
sent was found to he insensible. lie was inn
mediately placed upon the floor, and after the

FREDEmcK AND PENNSYLVANIA LINE RAIL
ROAD One day last week the General Super
inicudent Of the Pennsylvania Railroad. IN
company with about dozen other gentlemen
o. wealth and who are largely interested in the
railroad enterprises OF the day, visited ilis city
for the purpose, as we understand, Of viewing
the Frederick aud Pennsy lgania Railroad and
considering the question Of leasing It and ex-
tending it to Washington city. so MS TO secure
a separate, shorter, quicker and better route TO
the National Capital from North Western New
York, and rumor has it that the gentlemen re-
fcrred 10 were much pleased with their visit,
and that the prospects now nrc, that the F. &
p Line Railroad will shortly pass into the
hands OF Pennsylvania Railroad Company and
that the extension Of the road TO Washington
will ere long become a fixed fact Fredcrick
Union.
The construction of the extension Of this
important railroad through our county to
The District will be matter Of great inter-
est to our citizens, and already inquiries are
made as 10 the route which viii be selected -
1t appears to be the impression Of gentlemen
well informed in such matters that the most
feasible route will be upon one OF the lines sur
veyed for the old Metropolitan Railroad several
years ago. We believe one Of these lines was
surveyed from Frederick 10 Bnckeystown,
thence to PARIS Ridge, crossing said ridge a
little south Of the present railroad, leaving
Barnesyile 10 the west and running short
distance west of Rockville, crossing the valley
of Cabin John and running into Georgetown
by way of the Fails Braach The other route
was east of Rockville and running in the d.
rection Of the old county road leading from
Rockville to Georgetown. Another route
spoken Of is from Frederick to Laytonsville,
thence by way Of Mechancsyille to WASH
ington.

A DARK PAGEIN MoRMoNIsM. Many readers
will remember the massacre of two hundred
Arkansas e'aigrants at Mountain Meadows by
Mormons disguised as Indians in 1851. The
capture of Lee, the captain of that band of as
sassins, was made lately in Utah. Lee is a
thorough polygamist, having had eighteen
wives and sixty-two children, and his trial is
likely TO disclose some startling mysteries in
the history of Mormonism, and it is thought
will implicate many leading men of the Nor
mon Church.

The New York Times has made full and
careful review Of the labor market in that city,
and the conclusion is that trades are not SO
langnishing as al The same season IN several
late years. II is true that ia some trades the
supply OF men is greater than the demand and
this has been true OF these same occupations
for wears past; but, taking all together, the
situation is by no means a disconraging one.
