York, holding that they could promote or
retard the work. Every man, he said, should
feel that to aid in this is matter of pride;
to obstruct it just matter of reproach.
But If the fnanciers of Wall street conclude
that they can realize handsome sum from
obstructing resumption. it is not at all likely
that they will permit Mr.. Sherman's res
proaches TO deter them. They are cheap
and of no aval-simply like so much chaf
before the wind.
We would like to suggest to Mr.. Sherman
that we have had enough of his talk. It
is very cheap. What with circulars, let
tiers, interviews and speeches, all of the
same character, the country has had a
surfeit, and would like a little rest. The day
set for resumption is not far distant, and if
Sherman's course has been wise the result
will demonstrate the fact If, as we very
much fear, he has undertaken more than he
can carry out, the country will have to suf-
fer. At any rate, we can afford to wait q
little while for matters to come to a head.
Sherman's prediction that better times are
ahead will not make the times good. He had
better stop counting his chickens before they
are Matched, and devote his entire energies
towards accomplishing the purpose he has
in view. A single false step may bring I'M
told misery upon the country and involve
thousands of business men in irretrievable
ruin. 1t would be the part of wise minis
ter to carefully watch the current of events,
with the purpose of avoiding the snags and
shoals upon which the ship Of state may
founder. BE has gone so far that he cannot
turn back, and if he is to fail he must make
the best of bad bargain. Less talk and
more work will result in benefit to the ma
ton.

A BOLD OUTRAGE,

Il Lady attacked By a Ra.tian Ia a Boston
Hotet-A,e Unexplained Mustery
Boston Special (Dec. 22) TO Chicago Times.
One of the boldest outrages of the day
perpetrated on lady of reputation in one of
our leading hotels, has just come to light.
According to her story, which is believed by
the hotel people, the deed was committed
during the night of the 18th inst, but the
proprietors and attaches of the fremont
house, where it was committed, have sue
ceeded in keeping the matter secret. On
the day mentioned the lady arrived in this
city from her home on Eleventh street, New
York. Her errand here was to obtain $500
due from gentleman in this city, which
was to have been applied to paying interest
on mortgage on the house in which
she and her husband and her two
sons live. The gentleman met her in the
depot, and, taking her into waiting room,
counted out and handed her $3.50, half the
amount. While the money was being count
ed the parties noticed we'll dressed, fine
appearing man in the immediate vicinity, but
nothing was thought of it, and the fact that
she met the same man three times during the
day and evening, once as she was getting
into carriage for the hotel, again when
she was making purchase in the immediate
vicinity of the hotel, and still again at the
theatre, where she went with friend in the
evening, seems not to have frightened her
into calling the assistance of anyone She
retired about IL o'clock, leaving orders to be
called for an early train. The remainder of the
story, startling as it is, is vouched for by the
proprietor of the hotel, Mr.. Chaplin, who
has done everything in his power to repair
no ~ L.
2 o'clock in the morning, as near as she can
Tx the time, she was awakened by the pres
ence of man, who, in the light, she could
not recognize, in her room, who, upon her
attempting to scream, threw himself on top
of her. and, clutching her by the throat,
placed a cloth saturated with chloroform to
her face. Beyond this she
remembers nothing. About two hours
later, call boy, discovering the
door ajar, peered in, and saw the lady living
as if dead upon the bed. Help was at once
summoned, and it was found that the vo-
mans trunk had been completely overhauled
and her money stolen. The door had been
forced open with small jimmy, and the
bolt hung by the screw in the door frame.
Upon the woman's mouth still lay the nap
kin which had conveyed the drug to her
brain, and bloody stains were upon
it. A physician soon restored her
to consciousness, and in few hours
she was returned to New York in charge of
the matron of the hotel. The police were
given the case, but as yet report nothing of
their progress. The blood upon the napkin,
the lady vehemently asserted came from her
nose when she was choked by the rutfian, but
there is good reason Especially since the
physician was forbidden to investigated for
believing that dual outrage was committed.
The lady's name is withheld from publica-

the sub-treasury building on Wednesday and
presented thirty-fve 81 900 called bonds for

papers signed, the clerk placed upon the

''But don't want gold. Give me legal

The old gentleman expostulated, but in
vain. He hurried to the Gallatin National

him out of the scrape. Mr.. Happen explain
ed that all he could do would be to receive
the gold on deposit and allow him to draw

delighted. He said he did not care what
the arrangement was so that he could OBJ

/. Some fifteen years ago Rev. L. D. Palmer
came here and assumed pastoral charge of
the First Baptist church. He was a man of
robust appearance, and seemed decidedly of
the flesh, feshy. Not long after stories
began to be whispered about that he had not
that regard for the seventh commandment
which cody man should show but as there
were only runors no action followed. Some
three years ago these reports became so
numerous and the charges so direct that his
flock got up church meeting; but he
promised amendment, and consequently
was forgiven. These promises he failed
to Keep, and he soon removed to Battle
Greek, and behaved no better than here, it is
asserted. He had never severed connection
with the church here, and this body alone
could take cognizance of his misconduct.
Accordingly Brothers Byrne and Mcconnell
preferred charges of righteousness and lying
against him. They called, as council, the
best men of the denomination in the State,
such as Rev. DR.. Brooks AMI Judge Briggs
of Kalamazoo; Judge Wilkinson, of Detroit,
and DR.. Graves, of Grand Rapids, to hear
evidence touching the charges. They met in
this city Friday night, and were in session to
late hour. Rev. Mr.. Palmer was not pres
sent, but sent letter refusing
to have anything to do with the investiga-
ton. After hearing large number of wit
nesses on points in the charges, the council
unanimously adopted report of findings as
follows: That Palmer has been proved gull
ty of willful and injurious falsehood and of
long course of imprudence and unchaste
conduct, thereby FORGETTING his standing as
minister of Christ, and advising the church
to Withdraw the right hand of fellowship.
The church by unanimous vote has con
firmed this action, and the Rev. Mr. Palmer
stands now as outside the Baptist fold and
at liberty to be one of the boys at will

LIE departments at Washington give en-
ployment to thirteen hundred women. Their
salaries range from nine hundred dollars a
year to double that sum, the average being
about twelve hundred dollars. These women
DO all the work that is required of the male
clerks, and are reckoned as the most expert
In counting money and detecting counterfeit
bills. Yet they receive less than two-thirds
OF the pay that men receive for the same
work. They are, besides, more reliable and
honest than their male associates. Thew
never go off on sprees, and it is yet to be re-
corded that one of them has purloined a dol
lar from the government. Such being the
fact, is it not unjust that they should be re-
qulred to work for less consideration than
is paid to men? If a woman does a mans
work she is entitled to the mans pay, and
the government should be the last to set the
example of oppression.

New YORK, Dec. 2O.-The Sun saws Simon
Cameron is lately reported by truthful Eli
Perkins to have said that he had unimpeach
able evidence that his brother (Col. James Cam
eron, of the 10Th New York Regimenb) was shot
dead by Gov-Wade Ham rotor af he had surren-
dered to Hampton's men at the battle of Bull
Kun. The correctness of the story is denied bv

who were within a few yarls of Col. Cameron
when he fell, and who eye-witnesses to
the manner of his death.

rebels were not within 200 yards, 1t appears
that when the confederate batteries and req1-
mental volleys, at distance, opened upan the
advancing union column, Col. Cameron fell
dead at the first fire.
Richard Everett private in Cameron's reoi
ment, says that John Taylor, of the Broadway
squad, who patrols down by Stewards 10Th
street store, was within ten yards of Col. Cam
eron when he was shot. II saw TAYLOR yester-
day, and he says it is all mistake about
Hampton's killing Cameron.
Mr. Everetl says: II was within fifty wards
OF Col. Cameron when he was killed The
rebels were not in sight then. When the
rebels marched us off to Manassas, Cameron's
body lay on the field where he fell We did not

Seven Hundred Slaues ON a Cuban PInnta-
ton. Set Free.


ton. Set Free.
From the New York Tribune.
An account was given in Saturdays Trlb-
.t1ae of the release Of eighty slaves at Santi-
ago de Cuba, by the widow of Senior Antonio
fernandez Bramersio, and news of similar
act of generosity on the part of u wealthy
planter of Cuba has lust reached this CITY.
Senior Miguel ALBANIA, millionaire, and par
tlal owner of seven plantations who was ex-
lied from Cuba in 1869, on account of SYM
pathy with the insurgents, owned, with his
brother in-law, about three thousand slaves.
After his Punishment he came
to this city, and his prop
erty was confscated by the
Spanish government. During his exile he
went to Europe, and while in Paris had the
necessary papers prepared before French
notary setting free the seven hundred slaves,
which, according to his fathers will were to
fall to his share as co-heir with the marquis
OF Montelo, his brother-in-l law, in the diyis-
ion of the large estate. This deed he had
executed and recorded on behalf of the
London abolition society. To the executive
board of the society he delivered it at the
time IN order that the Madrid government
might be informed of his wishes. To the
efforts of the Abolition society, seconded by
the British foreign Office, the government of
Spain interposed the plea that the state of
war Ill the island, and the fact that the prop
erty was contiscated, sand therefore out of5the
control OF Senior Aldamo, preclude the execn-
ton of the deed. pledging itself, however,
that should peace be restored and a return
of property decreed TO the exiled Cubans,
the project might be carried out The
foreign Office and the Abolition society were
compelled to submit to this.
Since the restoration of peace in the island
through the zanjon capitulation, and the
decree of Gen. Campos, restoring to the
rightful owners all confscated property, it
has become possible to carry out this
humane plan, and the fact is for the first
time made public that Senior ALBANIA has re-
Gently set free the seven hundred slaves
which he owned in Cuba.
It is now said that in all probability the
other members of the family, holding the re-
manning twenty-three hundred slaves, will
initiate his example.
