Prof peuslow, Of Union College Of
Law Chicago. describes in the indie
pendent his plan for improving national
politics. He would have the President
and the Cabinet elected by Congress,
and removed whenever majority in
Congress voted against them. Thus the
President would hold about the position
Of the Premier in England. Dcuslow
claims that such q system would educate

that there would be no prolonged con-

Clara Wilmer innocent of the crime al
legged against her, and arraign Francis
Clifford before this tribunal as the real
thlefw
Clifford staggered back against the
bar with a groan; but summOuing reso-
lutien, loudly denied the accusation,
and defied the proof. With this, the late
defense-now the prosecutiOn-was well
prepared. Clara Wilmer was first put
upon the stand, and testified that he
was at Mrs. Wilson's house, and in her
private room, until a late hour on the
night of the 18th. The pawnbroker iden-
tilted him fully as the person who had
delivered them into his possession for
the sum OF $1,000, and TO finish up the
evidence, the ticket for the same was
found upon his person.
The confusion and humiliation Of the
guilty Mrs. Wilson Is easily conceived,
while the pangs Of the husband, whose
suspicious were now aroused, were only
equaled by the shame and agony OF the
convicted Clifford. One only, in that
audience, felt an excess oil Joy, and That
was the innocent girl who had been so
basely accused-Clara Wilmer.
One note from the book will complete
this sketch. Clifford was sentenced to
ten years. labor in the States Prison,
where he died ere his term had half eX-
pred. Wilson sued for, and obtained a
divorce, leaving his wife to 60 down.
ward in the course of RUN; and, himself
broken-hearted, soon ended his career
at the bottle. Clara Wilmer found
friends, who gave her home and the
advantages Of social advancement,
which she employed with tnat modest
dis cretion and noble bearing which wins
all hearts. One especially sue gained
that OF d young ana thriving merchant,
who MADE her his wife, and she st i'll
lives TO remember withouC blush the
incident which forms this sketch.

seems to us that the managers have
rather damaged their case by this
iattering report. II the road is doing so
well and has such prospects why ask
anything OF the GovernmentS One
would think that such an. opportunity
tor investing some of the capital OF the
country would be eagerly caught at and
the remainder OF the road built without
asking anything of Congress. Taking
this view, are not members of Congress
liable to conclude that the road will be
built anyhow, therefore the Government
may safely keep clear of it?

SUBMERGED CITY IN rAELAKE OF GENEVA.

A strange discovery is reported from
the Lake OF Geneva. A tourist having
lost his trunk, two divers were en-
ployed to searcn for it. While they were
below water they found what they sup
posed to be IA village, sirsce covered by
The lake. Their statements led to an in
yestigaton OF the spot by the municipal
authorities, who took measures to ascei-
tain the truth of the extraordinary ac-
count Of the divers. On covering the
placid surface with oil, these latter
were able TO distinguish the plan OF q
town, streets, squares, and detached
houses marking the bed OF
the lake. The ,ruddy hue which
characterized them led the observers
to suppose that the buildings had been
covered with the famous Vermillion CT =
ment which was used by the Celts, Cim-
Dri, and the early Gauls. There are
about two hundred houses arranged
over an oblong surface, near the iS.ddIe
ol which is a space more open, suppose ed
to have been used for public assem-
blages. AT the eastern extremity lies d
large square tower, which was taken
for IA rock. A superficial investigation
seems TO indicate that the construction
OF these buildings dates trOlnSome GEN.
Curies before our era. The Council Of
Naud has decided to have the site OF the
dwellings inciosed by jetty stretching
