is described as historical melodrama.
Miss Dickinson at one time had an ar

Theater in this city, but it is under
stood that the state of her health last
winter prevented her from keeping it. "

[From the 81. LouIs Tlmes. ]

We hve had abundant reason to believe,
rs General Henderson publicly declared,
that all the paths OF corruption lead directly
TO the White House, but have tried 10 hope
against hope that II might not be proved that
the President was guilty of actual pecuniary
corruption. The last shadow ~ hope has
vanished, and the stain of a corrupt and
illegal use OF public money darkens the
highest official position In the land. II has
been proved, before the Committee on the
Department Of Justice, that a corruption
fund Of ~ 900 was paid To one John |. Da-
venport. Of New York, by the express order
Of the President, to be used in the elections
Of the years 1871, 1872 and 1870. These
payments were proved byColonel Whitley.
who produced 10 the committed Davenport =
vouchers for every cent of the money. and
his testimony was reluctantly corroborated
by ex-Attorney- General Williams. who had
the dccency 10 demonstrate TO the President
against this Illegal use Of the Secret Service
fund.
This Is the hardest blow that has yet fallen
on the President. twill be as great shock
TO the country as the Belknap infamy. A.
Mr.. Grants term is so near ended, Con.
gress may leave him 10 drag out the re-
mander Of his dishonorod career without
impeaching him; but the stain. upon tho
President and his party, is inefaceable.

An extraordinary story is told by the
Paris GauloiS OF a certain dentist who
has just been consigned to the Mazas
prison in Paris on the charge of poison
ing certain of his patients. He is stated
To have induced them to pay him fire.
quent visits, and under pretense of at
tending to their defective teeth, to have
introduced small doses of poison into
their hollow molars. These specially
favored individuals are Supposed 10
have been sent 10 him by their heirs or
by other persons interested in their re-
moval. More than two hundred wit
nesses are stated to be in readiness. In
quiries of the police authorities have
shown that the first wife of the prisoner
(who is now married a second time)
died suddenly under very suspicious
circumstances, and that two women with
whom he had disreputable relations also
disappeared mysteriously. The first
wife Of the prisoner was possessed of
considerable fortune, of which he came
into exclusive possession at her death.
IL is expected that the trial will disclose
some extraordinary revelations.
The Jasper weekly courier., 1876-05-05
[yrom the New York Herald.l

Scarce day passes in these times of in
vestigation that some reputation, honored
in the sight of the nation, does not fall down
i'm loathsome ashes at the merest touch. In
all the scandals unearthed since the Belknap
infamy burst upon the country, and indeed
long before IL, the yultures OF corruption
had been seen lowering and circling close
about the President. letthe large majority
have charitably hoped and believed that as
near as the taint Of evil came To him, he, al
least, might come out unsmirched. IL i TO
he feared that this hope will prove fa,la-
cious. The revelations made before the
Committee Of the House investigating the
expenditures IN the Department Of Justice
show the President 10 have been the author
OF the raid upon the Treasury. whose un-
wsrrantable shamelessncss even Williams
has not the courage 10 defend. This Is a
great blow TO the President. As to Williams
and Davenport, they have no characters TO
lose that they would be likely TO grieye over,
or any one else for them, but TO the Presi-
dent, who surely counts on a respected
memory, this discovery must be as great a
shock as II will prove TO the country at
large.
