at the recital
The graves Of the families Of Presi-

a barbarous nation if these things can be
done, and in the name of science. HUI
mauity decency, all the symptoms of

Arrival Of the Committee and the Investigation
Commenced Damaging Testimony Elected as
to Baker County.
Jacksonville, June 5.-The sub Com.
mittee of Polter's Committee did not
waste an time when they arrived here,
but went Immediately to work. The ealm
is to get through in two weeks at the
farthest, and much sooner if possible.
The first witness examined this after.
noon was Secretary of State Bloxham.-
He produced the certificate of election
for baker county, signed by the Clerk of
the Circuit Court, NJ. j. Coke, to which
Judge Drygge had refused to attach his
signature. He has been subpoenaed
and will be here tomorrow. 1t is said
by those who know that he will now
swear it is the correct return.
S. B. McLin has been sent for and will
be on hand on Saturday. A number of
other important witnesses have been
sent for whose names l have not ascer-
tanned, and every indication points to
the fact that the investigation will be
thorough and will result in the exposure
of great frauds. A lively time is antici'
pated.
The committee will hold sessions in
the office of the Carrollton House, now
closed fer the season. The weather is at
fever heat. y,

THE COMMITTEE AT WORK.

Jacksonville, Fla, June 5.-Ihe sub
Committee arrived this morning and
will commence investigations immedi'
ately. They held a session this after
noon. A few witnesses are already
here, including Secretary of State, Blox'
ham. Others will arrive tomorrow. A
messenger was dispatched to-day for
McLiD, who cannot arrive forfou or Ave
days. 1t is doubtful about the commit
tee going to Tallahassee.
Secretary Of State, Bloxham, the first
witness, produced four precinct returns
and two returns Of the canvass Of Baker
county, the first showing a majority for
Hayes by throwing out two preciaIs.
The second witness was Cox, formerly
clerk Of Baker county, who testified he
made the first mentioned canvass in ia.
yor Of Tilden, and that was the only one
that could be made from the original re.
turns of precilc.s, as they were always
in his possession.
The opinion Of General Hunton to.
night is the Committee will be ready to
start for Washington on Monday. They
will not visit Tallahassee. If Congress
adiourns on the 18th the report will not
be ready for this session. 1t is believed
the foundation was laid to. day for an ex-
tended examination into Caker county
affairs, giving other counties like promi-
nence The Democratic members, how.
ever, decline to disclose their plans.

AsrnrNnrNa IGNORANCE.

On the contrary, assert, upon my honor as a
Senator, which am prepared to maintain upon
my oath, that do not know, and never have be-
lieyed, that any such frauds were in fact ever
committed that do not know that any promise
was ever made to Anderson, or to anyone else, in
consideration of fraudulent services in connection
with the Presidential eleCuoa Anderson, in my
little intercourse with him-all of which has ta-
ken place since March 4, 1S77-never asserted eG.
pressly, or by any inuendo intimaed that Sher-
man or anyone else had ever promised him office,
or anything else, either for doing wrong or right.
He never asked enything from me, orthrough me,
by virtue Of any such promise.
On the contrary Anderson expressly and pas
sionately appealed to me on the sole ground that
he had rendered honest honorable, lawful and
efficient service to the Republ can cause in Loui
siana at the sacrifice of time and money, and per
ii TO his life and that he had for that cause incur
red the odium and hostility from his political op
pOneuts The only wrong Understood or beiieV-
ed him to be gully Of was In having previously
untruly pretended he had been guilty Of things he
now sgain pTetendS to confess. The wrong had
no information Of until after his appeal to me for
aid had been responded to by an act OF my good
will in his behalf His disclosure Of it, with the
delivery of false documents, which constituted it
supposed as intended by him, and was regard
ed by me as an NtOnement for and the undoing Of
it. Upon that footing only received them 1t
never for moment occurring TO me that the pos
session Of them by me could be m sCOusIued into
an Offeusp and believing that he only use which
their publication could serve, would be to prOpa
gate a miSchie vous and scandalCus lalSehood.
