sures necessary to prosecute their title to
n final determination before the courts
of England TO secure the large estate said
to have been left by Samuel Jennings,
Henry Jennings and Isaac Jennings,

,nersons were present. The heirs in New
Jersey number about l ,S35, and the value
of the estate in England is said to be
three hundred million dollars. A COM

iecting money for employing counsel tc
prosecute the case.

A FEAR creptover the country short
time ago that Glover had neglected to
investigate LIndsrman, the Doctor of the
United States Mint. Such is not the
case. Glover has looked into him and
has submitted a report to the Secretary
OF the Treasury, who will, of course,
take no notice of it. The charges against
Linderman are that he caused stock Job
bing reports of the Datural resources of
the Constock Lodge to be published;
that he purchased silver at greater than
the market rates; that he employed a
man in San Francisco whose services
were not needed; and that a member of
his family received presents from per-
sons having dealings with the bur eau.
The Senate has rejected the nomins-
tions of VIM. +. Slater to be postmaster

Columbia. Two of the latter are colored
men. In place of the justices rejected tbe
Senate confirmed Simon Wolf, Samuel

Senate also confirmed SumnerJ. KIM

Mr.. Kellogg, Senator (so-called) from
Louisiana, being invited to appear be-
fore. the Potter Committee, politely
touches his hat and says that he will be
over as soon as he gets through with the
rush of business in the Senate. Mr.. Kel-
logg is a wicked. sinful, disreputable man
but he has too much regard for the little
bit of character that he has left to dodge
behind his Senatorial Privilege" after

What was announced as the first an
nual sale of Harry Bassett's yearlings,
ETC., took place In New York on Monday
The attendance was small, the bidding
spiritless, and the prices obtained were
very low. The sale was announced as
peremptory ON the catalogue, but the
prices did not suit the ideas of Col. Nc
Daniel, and only II of the 26 head were
offered, the whole realizing $2,7l5, or an
average of $500 per head. The highest
price paid was $500, by Mr.. Withers, for

Coniesses His Crime.

PHILADELPHIA, March 20.- James
Graham, aged q, single man, has been
arrested on the charge Of numbering John
NJ. Armstrong at Camden, New Jersey, in
January last, and coniesses to the crime.
He was an apprentice under BeItmiu
Hunter, now ih prison on the charge, and
says Hunter agreed 10 pay him If he ac,
complished the deed. He had several
interviews with Hunter, and the object Of
the murder, he says, was 10 get money
from the insurance companies. Grahsm
has been OF dissolute habits oflate. His
confession Is believed by the Sheriff, who
states that tho prisoner tells the story
with minutenesq, which confirms all the
knowledge in the hands Of the Court.
There Ia great excitement both in Camden
and here over these startling develop
ments.
The startling part of Grahams contes.
sion is where he details how Hunter Wis
tied the house Of the wounded man when
he was at the point Of death, and, going
to the bed OF Armstrong in the absence
Of the lady members Of the'family, pressed
the victims head and made the wounds
bleed fresh again. Graham says the
plan to murder Armstrong was carefully
matured, and that he agreed to do the job
for 5000.

Of the Wolf and Crane that we read about

the Crane to extract it, which, as will be
remembered, the Crane kindly did, by
pOking It's long bsak down the Wolfe

second illustrates the following quotation
from the we'll known fable:
"a Wolf, having a bone stuck in his
throat, hired Crane, for certain SUN,
to put her head into his throat and draw
out the bone. When the Crane had ex-
tracted the bone, and demanded the prom.
