The Grant Corruption Fund.
The testimony of e1-Attorney- 6 en- eral
Williams and Colonel Whiteley, before
the Committee on Expenditures in the
Department of Justice, was given to the
press tonight. The chief points have
already been published. John L. Daven-
port testified: In the New York election
of 1870 he discovered that frauds had
been perpetrated, and adopted system
of registration which eventually re-
suited in the detection of hose frauds.
In pursuing this matter the witness had
spent $4,000. He found that he was
being impoverished and asked Colonel
Bliss, General Arthur, General Sharpe
and Others. of New York, whether the
government would not pay him in his
efforts to detect these frauds. In the
summer of 1871 he went to Long Branch
to see the President. and explained to
him The frauds he had discovered
and asked whether some of the funds in
control Of the department of justice
could not be used to pay him. The
President was impressed with the plan
submitted blythe witness to prevent frauds
in elections and said he would recommend
the matter TO the Attorney General.
Witness received in all $36, 600, part of
which cana through Ackerman, and
part through Williams. He meyer con-
sidered that there was any corruption in
the Ms ter. Adjourned.

Liver md Blood Diseases.


DIR. Il. V. Pierce, NJ. D., Author OF "The
Peoples Common Sense Medical Ad-
WISER"
a healthy liver secretes each day about
two and half pounds OF bile, which
contsiIs a great amount OF waste ma
terial taken from the blood When the
liver becomes torpid or congested, II fails
10 eliminate this vast amount oil noxious
substance, which, therefore, remains TO
poison the blood, and be conveyed to
every part Of the system. What must be
the condition Of the blood when IL lie re-
ceivirg and retaining each day two and
Q half pounds of poison? Nature tries
- work off this poison through other
channels and organs-the kidneys, lungs,
skin, etc, but these organs become over
taxed in performing this labor in addl-
ton to their natural functions, and can
not long withstand the pressure, but be-
come variOusly diseased.
The brain, which is the gr0at electrical
centre of all vitality. is unduly stimulat-
ed by the unhealthy blood which passes
TO il from the heart. and 1t fails 10 per-
form its Office healthily. Hence the
symptoms of the bile poisoning, which
are dullness. headache incapaciry to keep

Of temper. The blood itself being DIS

A Bristow Man Rises 10 Explain.


LOUISVILLE, April 2l.-A Courier
journal reporter interviewed Hon. Wal
ter Evans OF this city in reference to the
case of the bark Mary Merritt, about
which Mr.. Cate, of Wisconsin, offered ii
resoluslon IN Congress. Mr.. Evans said
that there was nothing IN Secretary
Bristow's connection with that
case which was in the slightest
improper, bu. on the contrary
his sensitiveness as to official propriety,
had resulted in great injury to Ills
Evans )clients Mr.. Evans said the facts
are these: The bark, Mary Merritt, was
owned by Murray, Of Canada, who
bought her from Tricc Bros, of Hopkins.
Vile, KY, on warranty. The bark was
s,czcd and lbclled IN Wisconsin, Tor
mere technical violation, and there for
;eited by decree. An appeal TO the SUI
prone Court was taken and Irlce
Bros. employed Feland and Evans, law
yers to obtain a remission of the forfeit
ure. They visited Washington and Of
fered Br,stow employment in tue case
and he was then holding no public Office.
Their proposition 10 him was declined,
but BrIstow introduced them - Secretary
Richardson. Evans Gays this
was done purely for friendship.
Richardson did not succeed owing to the
representations of Weiss, the informer
in the case Subsequently when Bris-
tow became Secretary OF the Treasury,
the application FOR remission was renewed
but he positively refused to act in the
case, placing his refusal upon the ground
that be lad already appeared in the case
AS described. Weiss subsequently, Evans
understood, made an affidavit stat
ing that he had been misinfcrmed,
and sent in prayer that
the application Tor remission should be
granted. Evans learned the remission
was approved by Ir. Canout, acting
Secretary of the Treasury, after an ex-
animation OF the case by the Solicitor Of
the Treasury. His clients never obtained
the remission, nor have he and his part
ner received 3 cent for services. Mr.:
Evans states distinctly that Bristow was
never attorney in the case, and never re-
ceived a farthing fc, his friendly service,
and pronounces the assault utterly
proundless and made for malicious pur-
Doses
