Babcock Wants to Explain.

WAbHlNGTON, Lee. ..
Gen. Babcock had lengthy interview
to-day with Attorney General Pierrepont
with reference to the association of his
(Babcock's) name with the pending trials
at st. Louis. His object is to endeavor to
have an opportunity given him to be heard
by the grand jury, or in some way to con-
front the charges that have been made, and
he therefore appealed to Judge Pierrepont
as the representative of the prosecution in
these cases to consumate such plan. The
attorney general has referred the subject
of Gen. Babcocks request by telegraph to
the United States attorney at st. Louis.
LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT
Gen. B,bcock to-day addressed the fol-
lowing letter to the president:

Indiana Crooked Whisky Gases.

INDIANAPoLIs, Dec. 2.
John W. Bingha.n was brought before
the United State district court to-day. He
Withdrew his plea of not guilty to five
separate indictments pending against him
for violation of the revenue law and enter
ed plea of guilty. This move was en-
tirely unexpected as the defendant has
protested his innocence of the charge pre-
ferred against him. Thosel who are in a
position to know, however, state that the
evidence against him is 30 strong that any
defence would be fruitless. Bingham has
been released on his own recognizance to
await the sentence of the court, which in
all probability will not be entered before
the last of next week. Since his release
Bingham has gone before the United States
grand jury and 1t is believed will unbosom
himself of the matter in his knowledge
which will cause other parties to bleed and
that in localities not heretofore suspected
of any irregularity. Hiram B. Snyder
another of the parties indicted by the grand
jury has entered plea of guilty.

too fond of smoking, yet he takes the cares

takes things phlegmatically. Andy John

SH0REHAM.

The christian sympathies OF the people
of Shoreham were deeply moved by two
recent events of mortality. On Nov. Goth
Mr.. German Cutting died, aged 81 years
and on Nov. 23, Mrs. Roxelena Cook, wife
of Mr.. Reuben Cook, departed this life,
aged so years.
Mr.. Cutting was extensively known as
grower Of choice sheep, and man of in
tegrity in all his transactions. lie was
found true in every trust reposed in him by
his fellow townsmen, and they most deep
ly deplored his loss. He was valued
member of religious society to which he,
from early manhood, gave his interest, de-
votion and support and the loss to it is
felt by its members, to be irreperable. All
the neighborhood highly esteemed him for
his kind spirit and charitable acts and free,
ly mingled their tears with those of the FAM
lily that had dwelt so long in their midst.
But the sadness of the bereavement to his
family, who shall express it +? A most low
ing husband and tender father is cut down
In the prime of life and usefulness, and
they are suddenly deprived of his kind care
and counsel. Blessings were invoked upon
them, in the enjoyment of the fruits of his
upright life, by the many gathered at his
burial from this and adjoining towns. to
sympathize with them in their great afllic-
ton.
The death of Mrs. Cook was also the
source of great sorrow to large circle of
relatives, and of sympathy aud regret by a
christian community. She leaves a kind
husband, her senior in years, to mourn her
society, as one with whom he had for long
years walked hand in hand the path of life;
also affectionate children and grandchildren
who loved and honored her for all her ma
ternal kindness and affection in the days
Of her usefulness and unwearied care. That
usefulness she never outlived, for hei
presence and smiles gave joy to her friends
| neighbors and many acquaintance. The
| moral lesson of these events of mortality
| to the aged, middle aged and the youth is
"Be ye also ready, for in the hour We thinl
not, the Son of man cometh." IL.
