AN utter failure of evidence to sup
port the Belknap impeachment stares
the House in the face. The Demo-
cratic committee that let Marsh escape
may as well admit the blunder and
shoulder the responsibility for it at
once.-N. y. Tribune.
If it was only their blunder we
might think better of them. The very
strongest indications point to some-
thing else-not blunder, but a want
on connivance on their part at his
escape, to save the character of the
most distinguished lights in the DEM
ocratic party. 1t is not within the
range of reasonableness that Mr.,
Clymcr, the Democratic chairman OF
the committee, an able lawyer, could
make such blunder as to lose all his
testimony. Especially such lawyer
would not SO blunder when Repub.
lican member of his committee pro.
tested against Marsh being dismissed
Still further, it does not look like O
blunder when, with the protest OF
the Republican member before him
he even rendered his assistance Il
help Marsh of. Blunders don't have
that kind of ear marks.

THe Hon John m Gordon IT

The Hon John b. Gordon, u. s
Senator from Georgia, who recently
had bout with Senator Morton, re.
viewing the history of the two great
parties, has a record not very old,
from which we CLEAN the following
touching his views in answer to in
terrogatories. He said:
"We did not believe the act of Sc
cession was treason. do not believe
it now. do not expect ever to be-
lieve it.-(p. 333.)
Question. When you surrendered
did you not think you had been gull
ty Of rebellion and treason?
Answer. No, sir; never had such
an idea.
Question. Did you not think that
you were amenable to the law?
Answer. No, sir; not bit of it.
Question. As a matter of fact, did
not the people of the South under.
stand that they had been guilty OF
rebellion and treason, and were
amenable to the law?
Answer. No, sir.
Question. That was not the impres.
sion in the public mind of the South
Answer. Not bit of 1t. do not

0xNTLEMAN GEORGE.

The Hon. George H. Pendleton, the
great soft money light in the Demo-
cratic party of this country, was be-
fore Clymer's committee on the 14th
inst, and testified that he got fifty per
cent of the Kentucky Central Rail-
road Company's claim. and also $l5,-
OOO to pay A. III. Ransom, who had
been a clerk for the company,
for his services in the prepara-
ton of the claim. Now that was
pretty good pay for clerk. This
claim, as we have seen it stated, was
$l4S,OOO. Fifty per cent of this, the sum
that gentleman George got, would be
$4,000. A pretty round sum for the
exalted services of this brilliant light
of Democracy. Certainly it was quite
large enough to enable him to put
some thousands where they would do
the most good. The railroad COM
pany, it seems, got the smallest por-
tion of this claim at last. It required
the larger portion for George, his
clerk, and lobbying. The lively Dem
ocratic candidate for President il
said to have denied with great en-
phasis that he paid anybody any part
of his $4,000 to get the matter ad-
justed. All, verify there was need OF
Clymer letting Marsh and wife slip
off to Canada, if Mrs. Marsh's private
statement to several persons was true,
about where a part of this 81, ,00O
went to. Gentleman Georges state
ment is thin, very thin.

Cust,sg Hard steel with ssfs lro.

Cuttiog Hard Steel with sofa lron.
Mr.. Jacob Rees, of Pittsburg, had
been endeavoring to construct a ma
chine to cut hardened cold steel.
He accomplished it at length by
means of saw of soft wrought IRON
merely a circular disc-rotating at a
high velocity. With low speed this
would not cut at all; but when run
ming at about $4,000 feet per minute,
the disc cuts through steel rapidly,
giving out an immense cascade of
sparks in the operation. 1t was
found OH examining the debris be-
meath the disc that the particles of
steel were not simply rubbed Off
They We're welded together in a pyr-
amid like stalagmite or the snow
icicles formed OH Mount Washington.
Professor Hedrick ascertained that
real fusion had taken place among
the particles of steel. The disc Is
very little heated, but the steel is ac-
tually melted and drops down. Yet
the bar on each side of the cut is not
heated enough to draw the temper
or oxidize the metal. Solid bars OF
steel of two or three inches in diane
ter are thus cut through in as many
minutes. The soft metal disc il
about forty-two inches in diameter
The naked hand may be passed
through the jet or stream of flying
sparks during the operation without
being burned, since the particles OF
melted metal are in the condition
known as the spheroidal state.-Inde,

Tears rolled down the deacon's face

wiped them away now. and Priscy' g

Priscy's cheek was laid against his, as
in the days when It was the fresh, fair
cheek Of little child.
So they stood embracing in silence
and every tear that fell from the
brothers eyes washed away some un-
kind look or hard word that had de-
filed the past.
1t was but poor old garret, cob
webbed, and dusty, and crowded
with worthless lumber; yet, to the
long separated and suddenly reunited
brother and sister, it seemed as if a
dear, familiar angel figure was bend
ing over them in blessing, filling the

Articles are being published to the

Hedrick, of this city, have been en-
gagged together in certain dishonora-

charges are totally false.

to visit Washington, in obedience to
orders, to testify as to these matters
before the proper committee.
In the meantime it is but common

they have resided for over thirty
years, when the public is informed Of
both sides of the case.

On the l4th of April next, the an
niversary of the assassination of
Abraham Lincoln, the Inauguration of
the Freedmens Monument to the
martyred President will take place in
Lincoln Park, Washington, d. C. The
statue of Mr.. Lincoln is said to be
very fine. Fredrick Douglass is the
orator of the occasion. The friends of
freedom, impartial rights, and free in
stitntions,the country over are invited
to be present and participate in the
ceremonies. This enterprise was in
angurated by the colored people i'm
mediately following the assassination
Mr.. Lincoln, and is now, eleven years
after its conception, reaching con-
sumation. Beyond question, the ora
ton of Frederick Douglass on this
occasion will be a mastery and splcn-
did effort.

During the season of giving milk
there is Il severe strain on the animal
system. So great indeed, that il is
well known, that farms where milk
is the principal product, and which is
sold entire, soon require heavy
manuring. When cheese is the pro-
duct, this also holds good to a great
degree but, where the milk is made
into butter, and that only sold, the
drain on the soil is not so great, for
the reason that carbonaceous products
only are taken away, and these are
easily supplied. Therefore II we are
going to make dairying profitable,
we must Keep the animals supplied
