The President said that 1t was his recOl-
lection that during the riots in New York
in 1863 portion Of the national guard OF
New York was called out upon the direct
authority of the President, and co-operated
with the regular forces in their suppression,
and that this would apply to any other part
of the United States.

ments purporting to fOreshadow the action

South Carolina would be accorded Official
recognition upon the question being proper

dent said they were without any authority
whatever; that the question had not yet
been presented, and of course could not be
decided upon until properly presented.
The government could not decide any ques'
ton until all the facts were known.

THE WIDOWS MITE.

SHE CONTRIBUTED 1T To MISPLACED CoNFI-
DENCE.
The Norwalk correspondent OF the New
York Sun reports romance as follows: In
July, 1875, man describing himself as ID. r.
Wilson, son of the Hon. John Wilson, ex-
third auditor of the United States treasury
in Washington, came to Norwslk and made
the acquaintance of the widow of the late
Capt. Frank B. Smith. They were married
after courtship of three weeks. While the
arrangements for the wedding were going
on, Wilson had his trunk taken to Mrs.
Smiths house, was introduced to her
friends, and he created the impression that
be was gentleman OF wealth and position.
Mrs. Smith was fascinated by her adorer,
and few days before the nuptisl knot was
tied Wilson prevailed on her to sign an
order in his favor on one of the savings
banks here for $1,000, which sum he OBJ
talned, and with about 5000 of it purchased
a horse and carriage. Soon after the mar
risge Wilson began to maltreat his wife.
he went to Washington, and on his return
reported that he had expended the SC, 900 in
rehtting two elegant houses that belonged
to him. This she believed. He then, by
e3axing, promising, threatening, and even
beating his wife, obtained all the ready
means she had, including her diamonds,
rings. and other jewelry, and then sold a
cow belonging to her and
PoCKETED THE MONEY.
few days ago Wilson received intelligence
of the death of his father in Washington.
He desired to go thither at once, but he had
no money. His wife had diamond ring at
the village jeweler's-the only article re-
manning to her as q remainder of former
happiness and prosperity. Wilson prevailed
upon her to sign an order on the ieweler for
the ring, which he obtained aud sold for S62.
He then demanded the keys to his wife's
trunk, in which were various articles OF
value. These be obtained under protest,
sold them, and with the money went to
Washington, whence he telegraphed to his
wife on Friday, January IA: Father buried
to day. Has willed you $4,000. Meet me
at 10 o'clock train, Saturday. Previous to
to his departure for Washington, he kicked a
son of his wife, seriously ipjuring him. When
DR.. lockwood, a friend of the family,
called to prescribe for the boy, the story OF
Wilson's acts of fraud and ill-treatment
was told, complaints TOR breach of the peace
and for obtaining money under false pre-
fences were made, and when Wilson reached
the residence of his wife. He was taken be-
fore Justice Selleck, who held him for trial,
fixing bail at the small sum of 500. Fail
| lag to obtain this he passed the night in Jail.
In reply to letter of inquiry sent to Wash
ington as TO Wilson's character, the follow
ing was received, dated January 20: Will
son is here, and says his wife gave him a
check tor $1,000 to pay up all his fathers
debts. His father mortgaged all his prop
erty here in en6eavoring TO keep his son out
of prison. The total of Wilson's confidence
operations of various kinds here will amount
to not less than $1,000. He is now in Gus.

A CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE LETTING DAY.
LIGHT IN UPON THEM.
The Washington special of the Chicago
Tribune autographed the following to that
paper yesterday: Representative Willis,
acting as a subcommittee of the House on
naval affairs, has spent several hours in the
examination of the paynaster general Of the
navy. He discovered (he thinks)
that under the present laws the
bends of paymasters OF the navy
are insufficient: that, although many DEAL
cations have taken place in times past, no
defaulter has. been adequately pun ished by
imprisonment, fine, or otherwise. Defauters
have been concentrated, but have always
escaped the just penalty for their crimes.
He also learned that no civil suits against
the bopdsmen of defaulsers has ever been
pressed TO a successful termination. The
paymaster general admitted that il was
customary to intrust paymaster's sierks
with largs sums of money, without rsquir-
ing them to give bonds, or in any other
way to ps0tect the interests OF the gov
eminent. The examination showed that,
beside, some contractors for q long time have
been furnishing supplies for the navy, .
fact which suggests further examination II
order to ascertain If under the general laws
and the manner in which they are executed
sufficient competition among would-be con
tractors is allowed: Great defects in th'
laws regulating the inspecting of material,
and supplies purchased for the navy wer'
also made apparent. Inspectors, although
intrusted with very responsible duties, ar
required to give no bonds for the prope
performance Of those duties, and regular ex
perts are employed in the boards of survs,
to examine and report upon the character o
goods purchased who are not even sworl
to make correct reports. Examinations II

CRUSHED BY A FAILING TREE Death
OF Paul ALTMAN.-Paul Altman, aged
90 years months and one day, was III
stantly killed by falling tree last Fri
day forenoon about 10 o'clock. He was
an employe Of Henry Bruemmer G. Co.,
and had been i'll their employ but a
short time. Last Friday morning Mr..
Rruemmer, together with his son and
Mr. Altman, went into the woods to
do some chopping. Mr.. Breummer and
deceased felled a tree. The tree, in fall
ling, struck dry maple, which caused
it to fall ii a few moments afterwards.
After they felled the tree Mr.. B. aad
Mr.. A. proceeded to trim it. While
doing so the dry maple, to which [ al
luded, fell upon him; breaking his
back, and crushing him badly about
the heart. Mr. BruemmeI saw the tree
fall, but too late to give warning. He
called Paul, but receiving no answer, he
went to help him up, and he expired III
his arms. Mr. BIS boy was also stun

He seemed to know his time had come,
as he told Miss Bruemmer on the pre-
vious evening that he would not live
long, and asked her if she would cry if
he would die. He took her up in his
arms, kissed her and said, GOOD bye,

TENDER BUT SWEET

In last weeks issue OF the Pilot, Jack
falstaf, its nominal proprietor and
compiler, feels called upon to give its
readers an introduction 60 the present
editor Of the Tribune As we have pre-
yIously remarked, we should not have
| taken any further notice o. what sweet
scented effuE;ons were brought out in
| the chaste columns of the Pilot and
Chronicle, had we been aware thai the
personal feud then raging between these
| gallant and yirtuous fighting doodledoos
had already been terminated by com
promise. We gave our opinion on the
controversy when it began, and kept
clear of it until it waxed to such out
rageous indecency that further silence
would have looked cowardly. Well, it
is over with, and we are not disposed to
stir up n renewal. We should fear most
dreadfully the encounter the great and
good Falstaff Of the Pilot. In his attack
he is simply tremendous. Another eff
fort, such as he put forward in his last
issue, would annihilate US completely
bust us into more splinter5 than infinity
could hold or omnipotence put together
again. We were struck dumb By the
first shot that crossed our bow, and since
have vainly endeavored to come ont OF
to discover the point in that neat little
puff we received at his hands. Come,
Tennie, be nice, good little darling,
and tell us what you meant by singing
Bismarck, Goethe and Humboldt at us?
Must have been intend for something
unusual or you couldn't have done it up
in such wonderful language. We detest
personalities and will not indulge in
them bat should our friend Jack Fal-
staff feel an irresistible desire to demo-
lish the writer of these lines, we will re-
turn the compliment by meekly passing
under the rod, crawl into our hole, draw
the hole in after Us, and never show our
face again. It is . most hedious crime
TO have touched the heart OF 50 good,
great, and vlrtuous an orphan as is Jack
FalstaT of the Pilot. The allusion to cur
style of treatment Of the other great gun
OF his party, the f'Ho1aOrablc" (great
golly! what a titie) Carl Haw Schmidt
last fail is immaterial. Ii going for
that orphan we told no stories, such as
Nash and Olmstel tell on each other.
We merely held him mp to look at and
now are willing to admit, it to have
been a waste Of much valuable time.
Like many of Barnum's curiosities he
wasn't worth looking at. However, this
was nothing to DO with the price OF pork;
it is more pertinent to find cut whether
Jack Falstaff is going to set down on us
or not. II not, we'll breathe free, if SO,
we must haste to find some convenient
place to crawl out of his way. Oh dear,
how frightened we are.

WOOD. The runner of the sleigh passed
over his body, crushing in his breast
and breaking one of his arms. TIE liz
tie unfortunate lived but ten minutes
after the accident. The dangerous
practice which resulted thus fatally is
too common among children here, and
stop should be put to It in some way.
