and clear-sighted. lie ia man OF iron
will and executive ability. Through all
his business air shine the manner Of d
man Of the world. On account Of his
stern, cold-looking face, many OF the en-
ployes Of the Baltimore and Ohioroad at
tribute 10 him every bit oftheir discipline.
1t may be news 10 the strikers 10 know
that Col. Sharp was opposed 10 the re-
duction Of their wages, and so far as he is
concerned has since the strike been in
favor of restoring the 10 per cent redue-
ton.
One gets an idea Of the power of a
prominent railroad official by seeing his
motion His ear Is his own, with all the
comforts of a first-class hotel. SHARP
travels with lawyer, Judge Cowen, al
his right hand while a telegraph operator
trails along at his heels, ready TO set up
his instrument and talk with " the whole
world whenever sharp is ready. biz
patches come and 20 necessarily. The
entire line is constantly covered by thor
ough reports The lawyer quietly sits
by his side all day long and gives him
cold blooded advice of Just what he can
properly do Thus the railroad is saved
making any legal mistakes, and civil
authority is kept paramount. Judge
Cowen is mild, brown eyed gentleman,
ertainly under 80, who is wonderfully
cool and self possessed in times Of need.
He conducted the Baltimore and Ohio
fight in Indiana several years ago when
il had SO much trouble with the Michigan
Central railroad about railroad cross
ing.
col. DOUGLASS,
Gov Carroll's aid at Cumberland, was a
brilliant exception TO the State officials
along the line of the Baltimore and Ohio.
He was an officer who saw gallant service
during the war; and who truly appreci-
ated the condition of affairs, in his state
without unduly magnifying them. But
against the local officials of Cumberland
he was but one man. The captured men
who were fined $40 and costs suffered the
heaviest penalty that was imposed.

The CamphOr Tree.

One of the most useful and magnificent
productions of the vegetable kingdom
that enriches China, and more particularly
the provinces of Khan 81 and Canton, Is
the camphor tree. This stupendous
laurel, which often adorns the banks OF
the river. was in several places found by
Lord Amherst's. embassy about fifty feet
high, with its stem twenty feet in clrcum-
ference. The Chinese themselves affirm
that it sometimes attains the height Of
more than three hundred feet, and a cir
conference greater than the extended
arms of twenty men could embrace.
Camphor is obtained from the branches
by stepping them, while fresh cut, in
water two or three days, and then boil
ing them till the gum, in the form of a
white Jelly. adheres to the stick which Is
used in constantly stirring the branches.
The fluid Is then poured into glazed YES
sell where il cOncretes in a few hours.
TO purify il the Chinese take a quanti-
Is OF powdered earth, which they lay at the
bottom Of a copper BASIN on which they
place layer OF camphor, and then an0th-
or layer Of earth, and so on until the yes
sci is nearly filled, the last or topmost
layer being earth. They cover this layer
with the leaves of plant called po-hol,
which seems 10 be species of the men
tina (mintl. They now invert second
basin over the first, and make it air-tight
by luting. The whole is then submitted
to the action Of regulated fire for 2 GER
tain length Of time, and then left 10 cool
gradually. On separating the vessels the
camphor is found TO have sublimed and
to have adhered to the upper basin. Rep
etitions of the same process complete IFS
refinement. Besides yielding this val
liable ingredient, the camphor tree is one
Of the principal timber trees Of China,
and is used not only in building, but in
most articles Of furniture. The wood is
dry and of light color, and although
light and easy TO work, is durable, and
not likely IN he injured bv inse>ss.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May Is, 1871
There is something very like huge scandal
in the matter of the whiskey frauds com>
promise cases. These cases may be briefly
stated as follows: Certain prominent distil-
lers were promised immunity from punish>
ment for their acknowledged crimes if they
would turn Estates evidence" This prom>
Use was made by Secretary Bristow. When
civil suits were lately brought against these
men for taxes confessed to have been with
held from the Government, they alleged that
the promise of Secretary Bristow extended
to this matter of money due as we'll as to the
criminal side of this case. Secretary Sher-
man, unable to find any promise was made
that could be SO construed, refused to adopt
the distillers' views of the case. But now
comes the close friend of President Hayes,
Judge Lawrence, fresh from his confidential
mission to Louisiana as Chairman of the
Presidents Commission, and puts in an ap>
pearance as attorney, before the Secretary,
for the largest of these confessedly dishonest
distillers, and the result is that tho Admin
istration has agreed to refer the matter to
Congress for action. Congress has no more
to do with the questions of facts involved
and there are NO others-than the British
Parliament has. This is Only dodge to
mystify the people while the rogues get free
with their stolen millions. The suits against
them are in the meantime to go on as part
of the programme, but the rascals are as safe
from law in the cases as is the most honest
farmer who reads your paper and has to mort
gage his farm to pay the taxes on it. IF, as
l prophecy, it shall turn out that these men
escape scot free, then here is a scandal such
as never grew up even under the loose adj
ministration of Grant.
Our local criminals have a convenient way
of walking out of Court when most wanted
aud not returning. A few weeks since a
murderer took this course, and has not yet
been retaken. Yesterday man was on trial
before the Criminal Court for forgery. BY
looking over the records with a microscope
he had found a piece of District property
not mortgagcd for its full value, and he at
once made out new mortgage, signed the
owners names and gathered in several
hundred dollars. During his trial yesterday
he quit the Court Room in disgust, and is
being looked for. This is the easiest way
known of escaping punishment and ought to
become as popular elsewhere as here.
