Verdant Indeed.

Last week three verdant looking indi-
viduals entered the City Hall and inquired
of a member of the Third House, "Say,
stranger, whereabouts ere is the Rogues'
Gallery" Right at the head of the
stairs, on the second floor" remarked the
local statesman, pointing to the Governors
room. The three inquisitive sightseers
hurried at once to the Governors room,
where they wonderingly examined the full
length portraits of Horatio Seymour, VIM.

wicked for clergymen or other public men

FREEDMEN's HOSPITAL. JAN 30 1878
Editor Erenin9 Star:-With great reluc-
taAce, at the earnest solicitation of DIR. Chas.
Is. Puryis, 1 lately went to the hospital head
quarters, in the Howard medical building.
where John II. Cook put certain Questions to
me and assumed to write down nv answers,
He afterwards requested me to make oath to
the paper, which he had written, but / posi-
lively refused to swear to it, whereupon he
said, Then l will not send your statement"
Subsequently, Cook asked me to hold mn nv
hand, which did, and he uttered some words
which did not understand. l did not yolun-
tarily or intelligently swear to the statement
which Cook prepared. l have since learned
that Cooks version of my remarks has been
flied by DR.. Palmer with the Secretary of the
Interior as my sworn affidavit, certified by
John III. Cook, notary" l repudiate that
document as not my act and deed, and in the
presence of Cook and the whole world would
assert that certain statements contained i'm il
misrepresent my sentiments and convictions.

SENENTH-STREET ROAD Jan. 81. 1878
Edt0r Stdr:-Can you inform the residents
north OF this city by what right, human or d-
vine, the street cars are run from 7th and
Boundary north on the Silver Springs road
only when sufficient number of passengers
accumulateS at that point to pay for the trOu-
bic OF running car out on the track and
hltching horse to it? Or, in other words, why
are not the cars run as formerly, without eX-
acting guarantee from the public before
starting that fares enough will be taken in by
the driver to cover the expense incident to the
Tip? For it amounts to the same thing. When
the road was projected, few years ago. many
of the residents along its route disposed OF
their private cOnyeyances and gave to the new
enterprise their entire patronage and support
Not alone was this done from selfish motives
or considerations of Self-intereSt. but they ali
felt local pride in having it succeed. Verify.
now they have their reward, There is source
OF relief left us, hOWever.-the right of petition
