THOSE strange and eccentric people,
the GYPsIEs, held their annual Congress,
in the suburbs of Joliet, Illinois. yester.
day. What is the special purpose OF
these yearly gatherings of that peculiar
race is not known beyond their own
tribes. That they attach much
importance to these conferences Is
evident from the great numbers
Of them that assemble on such occasions. 3.
Some five hundred of them were there
congregated, having come like the birds
in the air, from no man knows whence,
aud soon to disperse no man knows
whittier. They are reported as having
plenty OF fine horses, in which they are
great traders, and in the meantime are
selling baskets and telling fortunes, in
which they do thriving business.

IT is common opinion at Washington
that, in the Belknap impeachment pro-
ceedings, the Managers ON the part of
the House are OF too light weight 10
match Belknap's counsel; and that on
every motion thus far the Managers have
appeared to disadvantage. Their
leader, Mr.. Lord, has no voice capable
of being heard by more than half the
Senate, and his manner is spoken of as
lhesitating and confused. The proceed
ings are represented as being exceed
ingly dull and prosy. The Senate, as a
court, withdrew for consultation on the
motion for a continuance till next De-
cember; and after an absence of an hour
and half returned, and announced that
the motion was denied. Matt. Carpen-
ter is the leading counsel for Belknap.

THE Centennial Commission, by a
vote of 27 to 8, rejected the minority
report ordering the opening of the
grounds on sundays. They adopted
the majority report closing the fair on
Sundays. Subsequently, as a "suc-
cedanenm," they passed a resolution
directing the grounds to be kept open
without charge for admission ON SUM-
days and all buildings to be closed.
That is about equivalent Ito the order
once issued by our Cincinnati Mayor
that all drinking places might keep the
back doors open on Sundays provided
they kept the front doors shut.

THE Senate having refused the motto

THE Senate having refused the motion
for continuance of the Belknap impeach
ment trial, the defendants counsel are
now urgent for speedy trial. Matt
Carpenter proposed to submit
all the testimony at once, and
then let the Senate take the
whole case including the question Of
jurisdiction. But this is objected to;
because, without jurisdiction, the testi-
mony would be useless. There is great
doubt which way the Senate will decide
on the question Of jurisdiction. This
point is giving Senators serious concern
of mind, as we'll it may.

THE British Government is good
deal exercised in mind on the subject OF
the situation between that government
and ours on the Winslow extradition
case. The House OF Commons had
taken up the matter and moved a call on
the Cabinet for the production OF all the
papers on the subject. Tomorrow is the
day limited for Winslow's detention un-
der the reclamation, provided England
insists upon her construction Of the ex-
tradition treaty.

To PERSONS who are seeking silver
coins for boarding, it should be known
that they will find pretty stout CON-
petitor in the United States Treasury.
The Government commenced the pay.
ment OF silver for the 'postals" with
SIG, ,00O, 900 of silver coin in hand to begin
with, and are running the mints TO the
amount of $3,OO0,O0O per month to keep
the thing going. Yet some people think
they can "speculate' by running against
'poow like that, and 80 they lock up
their little piles OF little silver and 60 fol
more. That is not bad thing to do; fol-
their silver will keep remarkably we'll;
mould and moths will not destroy it the
mice can't make nests of it. 1t makes 9
good savings bank OF itself. But who
soever expects to realize premium or
it by hoarding it. is not good at finan.
ciering. They had better put it out or
mortgage security at six per cent. inter
est. That is more than can be gained by
holding it for speculation as against
greenbacks. As soon as the novelty Of
possessing "hard money! passes away
and the thing becomes common, it will
become question whether silver will
be even equal to greenbacks In the mar
kets. There is such a thing as silvel
being at discount for United States
currency. And just that thing may
happen to the hoarders of silver coin.

Rolf stared at the quivering wires as
| If expecting TO CLEAN further intelligence
from their metallic surfaces; then he
looked across the room 10 where the
slender, dark-eyed young lady sat- her
hands clasped on her knee and her eyes
fixed intently on the dull fire.
"a young girl, we'll dressed and plaus-
iblew The description tailed well
enough-but then she was alonel And
| as for her being connected with a iorgers

At the same instant she rose and came
hesitatingly half across the floor.
~ beg your pardon, sir--but has the

1.-TWO hours ago." Mr.. Otherbrae me-
chanically answered, wondering if 1t
were possible that so .air an outward
exterior could conceal the hideous inner
lie of crimel And then, all OF sud-
den. it occurred to him that the tall gen.
| tleman in the iur-trlmmed oyercoat, in
the other room, might possibly be the
| ..lriend" she had spoken OF, and the "old
man" alluded to in the telegram.
At the same instant, advancing pace
or two farther, she caught sight of the
tall, erect figure wrapped in lurs, with
The silvery, aflstocraLic hair, and the
chin dropping on the breast, as il in
slumber.
"Papap broke invountarily from her
| lips. "He has been waiting Tor me, ana

She hurried past the ticket agent into
the other room. Roll Otherbrae looked
after ner in dlsmay.
I'm 10 stop her, am IW thought Rolf.
| SAND how The deuce am to do it, I'D
like to knowi 1wish Mi. Deko was mere

AS these disjointed reflections passed
| through his mind q sudden shrek rose
up in the silence, and Mr.. Otherbrae,
nurrying into the waiting room, saw the
Young glrl kneellng on the floor beside
Lhe olu gentleman. And in an instant
he perceived the secret of her cry.
The stately old man, with the fur.
trimmed garments and the snowy beard,
was quite dead.
AS Rolf advanced she looked wildly up
into his face.
"Can't you help himw she gasped.
"Can't you do something? On, don't you
see he has tainted? Tell me where to 90

ct is OF no use," Rolf answered. gen.
tly, entirely forgetting the telegram, or

you there"
"And papa? Papa, who has come all

throat, as he felt how utterly useless

And so old Mrs. Otherbrae was strick-
en- dumb as she sat by her cosy hearth
stone, at 10 O'Clock at night, by the sud-
den apparition OF beautiful young lady

.Don't ask any questions, mother,

the residence of Gen. Hunter to examine Geo. H.
Pendleton and Caleb 7. Marsh These names, by
reason of the similarity Of the acts with when DOM
are charged, appear in the same connection Inc ex-
animation of Mr.. Pcndeton conducted secretly
II is ascertained however that his testimony was IN
substance this: At the time Mr. fende-
ton collected the claim of the War Depart
ment Of %l4S 900 foF the Kentucky Central Rail
road company the road did not in fact belong to the
Bowler heirs, for whom he administrator ana
who were supposed to have owned three-lths or the
road nor to their associates in that cOpartncrNllp
On the contrary, the courts on fnal appear haa ue
cided that the road did not belong to Bowler his
heirs or associates but to the counties in Kentucky
through which the road ran. The ease was sun
pending, it is true upon technicaty, but TO
all intents and purposes the court bad decldeu
upon the merits of the ease, that the road did not
belong to Bowler and his associates although they
still held il in possession. Yet notwithstanding
this final adjudication Pendleton collected tins
claim and did not account for it to the counties OF
Kentucky to whom the road then belonged, but III
fact kept the knowledge of its collection from the
rightful owners while giving about $4,000 oil the
l4s 900 to those who did not rghtfully possess the
road.
This new revelation astonished the Committee not
less than the original knowledge of Pcndletons
transactions. From it il appears that IcndletOn ana
his associates had right to the money at all, but
that it belonged, If to anybody, to the counties OF
Kentucky which the court had declared owned the
road THIS new feature may perhaps explain the in
difference of Pcndlcton's associates in the Company
To the percentage he received or to the amount he
chose 10 ave to those vino managed the road
Pendictnn reiterated in the most en-
phatic language that he never paid MIS-
Bclknap or Mrs. Bower, or Gen. Bclknap, or
any body, directly or indirectly, on account OF any
or oil of them, anything in consideration Of the
payment Of this claim. His denial Of this was as
explicit as language could make it. lie took the
$4,000 for his trip to Europe. Members of the
Committee express amazemcnt at the hearing oil
Pcndlcon in the face Of facts and testimony which
must destroy his hopes Of political preieuncnt.
