come so obnoxious to the lady that she forbid

determined to have revenge and took the above
method to satisfy his anger. He gained access to
the house through the kitchen window, procured
the axe from the cellar and thea preceded to the

s- race of rather novel character was
to have taken place over a course near New

time, the conditions being that Mexican
named Francisco Peralto was to accomplish
3O5 miles in fifteen hours, to ride unframed
Mustang ponies, thirty-six of the animals to
be ridden in relays. The ponies were brought
from California some time ago and have been
in training The race was made between two
wealthy gentleman-a New Yorker and CAL
ifornian-the former betting the latter $685.

Ge~ Dom Pedro develops locomotive capa-
cities of an astonishing character. He has
been here but few days, yet he has finished
New York, Niagara Falls, and Chicago; he
has done Mormondom and Investigated John
Chinaman in San Francisco and explored Cal
ifornia; he has exploited Washington and as
sisted at the opening of the Centennial. he
has visited Baltimore, and is now in Cincin-
natl, whence he will visit the Mammoth Cave
and sail down the Mississippi, and finally en-
bark for Europe from New Orleans. Such &C.
lerity of movement in a crowned and titled
sovereign is altogether unprecedented and as
tonishing.

publication of the prize story, written expressly
for that Journal by Mrs. Marian Stockton, of N.

the proprietors awarded her the first prize, $500.
There were six prizes offered, ranging from $500
down to $50, and after careful study of the
productions of upwards of two hundred compel
tiers, toe committee finally awarded the first
prize as above, and the publication of the story
was at once commenced. The other five will fol-

daughter, aged IL, were burped to death in
Baltimore on Monday night last from the burst
ingofa coal oil lamp. The lamp was sitting
on a stand in their bed chamber and the moth
noticing that it burned low approached it
for the purpose of turning it out. Just as she
was turning down the wick the lamp exploded,
throwing the oil over herself and setting her
clothing in blaze. The daughter went to her

burned that they died soon afterwards.

Letter from yV0shinoton.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 10th, 1876.
The appalling fatality that has prevailed to
such an alarming extent among the subordi-
nate House officials this session, threatens to
add another victim to the long list of defuncts,
beginning with that ardent admrer of J. Wilkes
Booth, DR.. Hambleton. The brilliant achieve
ment of Doorkeeper Fitzhugh, as letter wri-
ter, added to his alleged criminal record, and
his offensive action and lunkyism in obtruding
himself upon the notice OF Dom Pedro, has at
length obliged the reformers of the House to
take concerted action to rid themselves of such
dead weight. He was the subject of much
ridicule and levity in the House last Saturday,
the laughter being particularly boisterous on
the Democratic side, for the purpose, evidently.
of diverting attention from the humiliating and
disgraceful features of eleeting such a sick
swell to one Of the most important positions
within their gift. He was pretty plainly given
to understand that his resignation was desired
The action of the House in recently passing
large number OF rebel war claims, with hard
ly dissenting voice among the Democrats,
has excited much unpleasant comment among
loyal people and press Many Of these have
been time and again rejected as VIGOROUSLY
fraudulent and as i'm positions and insults to
the loyal sentiment of the country. They have
been kicking a bout the halls of Congress some
of them at least-ior ten years or more, await
ing Confederate supremacy for favorable treat
ment, and the shame of recognizing and enter
tanning such claims against the government,
staggering under a war debt rendered necessa-
ry by Democratic treason, was reserved to a
Democratic House: and the haste made by it
to food Congress with similar claims amount
ing to hundreds of millions Of dollars is point
ed to as logical indication nf the burdens to
be imposed by the next Democratic admins
tration.
The report OF the committee which investi
gated the Congressional printer has been made
and charges that official with almost every
crime except those punishable by hanging
They recommend immediate steps to send him
before the Grand Jury Heis also recommend
ed for impeac hment
No progress has been made with the appre-
priation bills since my last report, and there is
no prospect that the House and Senate will
come to any agreement. 1t is understood that
should the diplomatic and consular bill go to
the President as reported by the House com
mittee, he will return it without his signature.
The resumption Of the Belknap trial excites
no interest. He has been pretty generally
dropped by friend and foe; but there is feel
ing that he will escape both in the Senate and
before the court. LOGAN.
