WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 1.-The follow

| PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March y, 1873
Ny Dear Mrs. JsHks-l have been in
| Washington for some davs, hence have not
answered your last amusing letter. Evi-
IDENTIFY, your visit to Washington caused
you to lose your temper. | don't know
when | laughed so hearty as l did after
reading your letter; bless your innocent
soul, you shouldn't get mad; it don't do a
particle of good, and spoils the complexion
of woman. They do say that Sherman
fooled you badly; that you gave him
that letter on promises to paw, and
that after getting it he told you
to whistle for your " ding bats"
Now, can imagine mysterious women of
Louisiana "chuck full' OF damning proofs
of conspiracies, etc, and who travelled
hundreds OF miles for the purpose of
Strengthening things generally and whi-tI-
ing for ding bats" '.Jewhillikens
don't wonder that you got mad. Sherman
is "sly old coon" who knows the soft side
of the ger tier sex, and with visions Of sine
cures, etc in prospective, am not surpri@-
ed at tn old sinners" success And 81
you are coming up fortified? You have no
idea how my hopes revived when | learn
ed your decision. Come by ali means.
Send barrel of dynamite by express ant
fortify yourself with a return ticket. You
ought to hear M s." tell how you tried To
bull-doze him out of pass. Its as good
a. circus. / enclose you an article from
a Chicago paper which you can hand down
to your posterity as an heir loom, or Use
all the same.
Very truly, yours,
lSigned, JAMES +. ANDERSON.
On the same sheet with the foregoing let |
ter is written the following:
"Senator-I send you ''Mr As" letter to |
me and copy of my reply thereto, which
| mailed yesterday. Please return these |
to me and Oblige.
Lock Box, 500, New Orleans"
The following is also written ON the same
sheet:
senator Mahhus-May trouble you to
explain that clause in that fellow Ander-
sons letter in regard to me, requesting
pass from you. How did you chance to
mention it? Was it necessary for you to
90 so -Not tiat care, out Knowing
that fellow, as do you, 1 must say am some
what astonlshed- L deemed whatever ]
said to you regarding my own private al
fairs would at least be .Inviolate, as 1t Is
not often l mention them to any one, but II
don't matter. l wish you to write den,
mite answer TO my last letter to you, mailed
on the 18th, be it pro or con. wish j
knew. Please return these letters to me. j
