1.-THE Dead Century.

The Burlington, Iowa, Ha1heyo, of Sun
day, Feb. 81, publishes the poem entitled
"The Dead Century" from the pen of our
honored and gifted authoress, Mrs. Julia
G. r. DORM whom Rutland and Vermont
take Just and honorable pride, and rejoice
at every new victory she wins in the field
of letters
The Hawleye pays the following chaste
and delicate compliment TO Mrs. Dorr, and
Just tribute to Mr.. Russell r. DOR
The beautiful poem which we present to
the readers of the XaHkepe this morning,
is from the pen OF one of the most gifted
poets that have touched the harp of Amer
lea, to living, soulful, patriotic numbers.
In this one poem, had she dropped her pen
never again to touch it, when the last
stanza burned on the page, Mrs. Julia q.
X. Dorr, would have cmbalmed her name,
and by virtue of this lay, taken her place
among Americas favorites. The occasion
for our republishiug the poem at this time,
is that it was read last Tuesday evening, at
the entertainment given by the ladies of
the Congregational church. The poem
was read by son OF the poetess, Russell
H. Dorr, Of this city, and the recitation dis
played the marked elocutionary power
that brought out all the beauty anti
strength of the poem.

The Situation in Mexico.

HAVANA, March ..
The steamer City of Havana, from Vera
Cruz, arrived this morning, bringing ad-
vices from Mexico TO Feb. Goth. General
Gonzales Herrera had pronounced against
the government in Laquna Coahuila. The
troops dispersed bis followers and he was
killed Donate Gurera had also pronounc-
ed and seized Largos. He was subsequent
ly defeated BY the government forces. Gen.
Alatorre recently attacked Hernandez, who
had issued pronuucamento in Oaxaca
and was joined by Gen. Figuerea. The
rebels repulsed Alatorre twice but he has
since received renforcements and was
about to resume the offensive. Martial law
had been declared in Jalisco. The state is
tranquil. Wirthocan was considered paci-
fed. Peace had also been restored in Te-
huantepec. AS the steamer was leaving
Vera Cruz kilograms were received from
the interior announcing the triumph of the
government at all points. The different
revolutionary plans submitted show that
there has been no understanding among the
rebel leaders. The government bad asked
the loan of $500 600 from the merchants
of the capital, which was Immediately
granted, aud the money placed at president
Lerdos disposal.
A ception an ball were given at the
residence of minister Foster on Washing
tons birthday. The president, members
of the cabinet and foreign legations, and
the elite of the foreign and native popula-
ton were present. Flags were displayed
during the day on the national edifices and
over the foreign legations.
Typhu' fever continued to prevail in the
capital.

Another Investigation.

A dispatch from Nashville, Tenn, pub
llshed in our Geographic columns, makes a
statement relative to the letting of the con-
tract to furnish soldiers headstones for the
national cemeteries. On this subject the
Washington dispatches of the New York
1rtJune Of Saturday says
Another subject likely to be investigated
by the same committee il the manner of
letting contradiction headstones foa soldiers
graves, for which appropriation was made
by congress. An interesting question to be
solved at this time will be who secured
these contracts, whether they were the low
est bidders, and whether any one residing
at Keokuk, Iowa, was allowed to put in a
bid after the time for receiving proposals

THE SECRET HISTORY OF THE
WHISKY RING.
Attorney General Pierrepont's Action

ST. Louis, March 8.
The Times to-day publishes somewhat
lengthy statement of what purports to be a
part of the secret history of the whisky
ring prosecutions here, and especially the
Babcock trial. 1t asserts that Attorney
Ghneral Pierrepont was very active and
Jealous in the prosecution until Babcock
was indicted, when bis ardor cooled, and
he began to use his influence and the power
of his office to serve that gentlemen, with
this view it is asserted, the attorney general
sent for District Attorney Dyer to come to
Washington. Dyer went, and while there
Pierrcpont, on the plea that it was very
important, and even necessary that he, as
the bead of the department of justice,
should know what the prosecution would
be in the BabcocK case. He obtained from
him by the greatest and most inexcusable
hypocrisy, detailed statement of all the
oral testimony against Babcock, the whole
plan of the prosecution, what he intended
to prove by each witness, the order in
which he intended to present the evidence,
ETC., and made use of this information for
Babcock's defense.
Those familiar with the facts absolve
Dyer from all censure. He reposed full
confidence in Pierrepont as the chief law
officer of the government. Mr.. Storrs was
in Washington at this time, and was kept
informed by Pierrepont. AS to why So
lcitor General Wilson did not warn Dyer
of Pierrepont's intention to defeat him, it
is explained as coming from Wilson him
self, that he WILSON had already been
represented as soheming against the presi-
dent and Babcock every act he had per-
formed In iurtherauce of his duty, was
dsasteful, and came to Grants ears as a
part Of Bristow's plan to obtain the nom-
nation for the presidency. Solicitor Will
son had for several months devoted
his time almost exclusively to work.
ing up evidence against, and prepar-
ing to convict the leaders of the Chicago
whisky ring. He had acquired knowledge
aed arranged plans to this end, which made
it impossible for any other to step into his
position and carry this out. He knew that
great pressure was being brought TO bear
to secure his removal and he wished TO
avoid it until the Chicago ring leaders were
convicted. Just at this juncture, when a
warning to the st. Louis prosecution
against the scheme Of the attorney general
would have proved valuable, he dared not
interpese, lest it might result in his re-
moval, and the escape of the whisky thieves
in Chcago. The secretary regarded him as a
necessity to successful prosecution of the
ring and had he undertaken to have ex-
posed Pierreponts plan, his removal would
certainly have followed the discovery by
Pierepont Of the fact, besides Col. Dyer
placed the most implicit faith in the pro-
LESSONS of Pierrepont and any suggestions
as to the attorney generals scheme against
prosecution might have been resented
considerations of tins kind prompted Sol.
icitor Wilson TO refrain from giving advice
that might have undermined his plan.

feet the Hawaiian treaty and the attend
auce of members being consequently small,
Mr.. Wood of New York, who had the floor
to conclude his speech and who did not de-
sire to do so TO empty benches, moved TO
adjourn. The vote showing that there was
a majority in favor of the motion, PROPOSE
tons were made first to go on with the reg
ular business, which the speaker ruled
could not be done under the unanimous
agreement of Friday, and then to devote
the day session TO general debate on mis-
cellaneous business.
Mr.. Wood explained his motion by say
ing that he was not present Friday at the
time when the order for this days session
was made, or he should have objected to
II, because lie did not want to speak for
buncome, for posterily or for the news
papers but to the members of the house.
he did not want to be forced TO go on with
his speech when there was less than quo
rum present.
Mr.. Hale of Maine, objected to any va
ration of the order made Friday.
Mr.. Randall expressed his desire that
this Hawaiian bill be got out of the house
as soon us possible.
Mr. Reagan expressed his readiness to
address some suggestions to those members
who were present IN respect to the Haw-
allan treaty.
Mr.. Wood thereupon withdrew his mo-
ton to adjourn and the house went into

chair, on the Hawaiian bill and was adj

THE PRESS ON BELKNAr.
LONDON, March A.
The Times this morning says editorialy
of the Belknap scandal "Ths event Ia
the more grave because it is conGrmatory
of the suspicion which has long prevailed
among the American people. Even we
Europeans cannot but be struck with the
altered tones in which Americans speak, if
not of their institutions, at least of the men
who have the present direction of them"
The News, alludIng to the same subject,
says the American political life seems to be
in anything but healthy condition 1t re-
fcrs to the whisky fraud trial, the Emma
mine scandal and the downfall of Beknap,
and says that these scandals lift the veil
from class of society which it was hth-
erto pretty generally supposed had as yet
escaped the impurities of the social strata
below, and they lead one to fear that some

the general effect beyond denial has been,
