30 called Drug Stores.

About ten miles east of Morgantowr
on the north hank of Welch's creek
stands the modest little village Of
Brooklyn. A saw and grist mill, d
blacksmith shop, dry goods store. a
tobacco house, n tavern and dr1t1
store make up the physiognomy of the
place. Conspicuously located in this
village is the home of our unfortunate
cOuntyman, John T. Rose. In and
around this place Mr. Rose once owned
handsome property /; this house, with
its surroundings, would have impress
ed the stranger with the thought of
afluence and cOntentment. A faithful
and business wife, a numerous family
of children, ranging from adult age
down to the cradle, all contributed to
make him happy, useful man. But,
alas | today he lies in a convict's cell,
under a solemn sentence to spend four
teen years in the State prison
If we carefully enquire into tie
causes which have resulted in the con-
viction of Mr. Rose for shedding his
neighbours blood, we are led directly
and irresistibly back to that drug storet
If Mr.. Rose had never patronized that
house; if he had never allowed the ap-
petite to fasten on him for that baleiul
medicine dispensed over Its counter; he
might this day be enjoying the sun
light of freedom and basking in do
mestic happiness around his own quiet
hearth-stone. But, oh how sad a con-
trast, locked in . cold, dark cell, where
the sweet smiles of his innocent chill
dren never gladden. his heart, where
no pleasant memory of the past ever
comes to illuminate the gloom of the
future, where no kind voice Of sympa-
thy ever falls upon his ear. but the
stern, u1exible retributiops Of justice
are ever preying upon his sensibilities.
In his dreams he sees the large, deeply
shaded letters over the Drug Store, and
wakes to realize a significance in the
shade given them he never dreaned o!
before. shade that has settled in sol
emn sadness upon the future prospects
of his children, a shade that has chilled
the life out of the hes of once hap
py woman. And this is but one case
among thousands that occur annually
in our great country. The wall Of the
widow and the tears of the orphan are
the sequence to prosperous "drug
stores. MAMIE l.. Nj.

Washington Letter.


From our Regular Correspunient.I
WASHINGTON, ID. G.. Dec. u.
The reassembling OF Congress for its
second session isn't as lively an oc-
casiOl as the meeting of a new one
which has the exciting work of o.
ganization before it. There were no
scenes and incidents worthy of graphic
detail connected with the present as
semhling. Speaker and Clerk were
warm in their places, and the commit
tees were on hand ready to take up
business just where they had left il ONLY
Il short time before. All business holds
the position in which it stood at the adj.
tournament last summer, whereas at the
opening of new Congress everything
starts at the foundation. Unfinished
measures, originating this session or
last, fall entirely on the 4th of March
and must take fresh start to obtain
further hearing. 1t was little inter-
esting to the looker-Jn in Venice to
watch the greetings of members with
each other, congratulations for those
who had been reelected, and condo
lence for the less fortunate who must
step down and out when this session
closes. "Petter luck next time" was
the best word for them among their
colleagues. Hale was on hand en-
deavoring to impress the galleries with
the idea that he isn't as dead as rep
resented; but he looked gloomy and
forlorn, and tear stole silently down
his cheek every time he met the eye of
sympathizing radical. Sam Cox was
as fresh and chirrup as a squirrel in
nut, gathering season. He looked over
towards Hale and Garfield and Snarl-
ey-yow Conger in tone of voice that
seemed to say, "you fellows keep still
now or I'll make it lively for you"
Alexander II. Stevens alsp answered
the roll call. The little Georgia giants
50 pounds of skin and bones occupied
his familiar rockin chair with an air
cushion to prop him up. This country
has never seen IN instance of such
wonderful mental power maintained in
such slender broken down physical
structure. Yet he seems better now
than at any time for three or, four
wears, and promises much usefulness.
The bloody-shirt war which we have
been assured is 20 be q prominent
feature of this session, was begun in
sort of skirmish along the outpost on
the very first day. The acting Presi-
dents message was the signal. What
Mr.. Hayes says on the subject of cleo
lions in the South is not all that the
shriekers desired, but it is a good deal
too much in view of the fact that the
whole thing is partisan cutlery raised
to serve the basest of partisan ends.
Mr.. Hayes is undoubtedly somewhat
out of humor with the South. In re-
turn for the discharge of his plain duty
in Withdrawing Federal interference
with their local governments, and per-
hitting them to manage their own af-
fairs as other States do, he expected
the South to fall into line and sustain
the Republican party. But the South
ern people have not been guilty of the
political infidelity hoped for by trading
pliticians of the Hayes stripe. Re-
moved from the coercive influences of
bayonets and corrupt returning boards,
the South is Democratic. Hence these
Radical tears. A few years ago when
there were only two Democratic men,

The Sacramento Record Union says:
On a dispatch from Sheriff Kyle of
Winnemucca, Sheriff Drew. Chief
Stevens. and officers Harvey aud Dolsn
arrested yesterday morning, on the
arrival of tue overland train, u man
named Charles Carson. The charge
against the latter Is stated to be grand
larceny. but the details were not given,
the Sheriff merely stating that he
would come or send for the prisoner.
Carson. who is about 30 years of age,
claims to be by occupation a scout and
Indian fighter, and states that he has
served ia several Indian wars. having
begun in 1864. and during the past
eight months has been operating
against the Snakes and other Indians
depredating in Idaho, Montana. Ore
gon. etc. He killed ten Indians, and
secured six of their scalps. four of
which he had with him when arrested
He says that he has been at different
times engaged iu fighting the Apaches.
Neg Perces and Modocs. His state.
ment is that he was bora in Tuscon,
Arizona. and is nephew of Kit
Carson. The Apaches killed his
mother. sister and brothers. and this,
coupled with the fact that they
captured him and kept him prisoner
for q long time. he finally escaping
during buffalo hunt, caused him to
swear undying hostility to the redskins.
HIS father is now living at Los Angeles.
aud he was going thither when ar.
rested. He declares that he has com.
mitted no crime, and cannot UNDER
stand why he should be wanted by the
authorities. After his arrest he wrote
letter to General Howard. telling him
OF the circumstances. aud asking that
he interfere Ia his behalf. signing the
document. "Oharies Carson, or Lone
Rattiesnake Jack. of the Black Hills. /"
In attire Carson is gotten up very
much after the Buffalo Bill and Captain
Jack pattern, aud those individuals, he
states, once rescued him from the
Indians. He has as arms good Win.
chester rife. navy size breech- loading
revolver. and big knife. The police
learned lsst evening that he is accused
Of appropria.iDg another man horse,
and that il Is for so doing that he is
wanted in Winnemucca.
