CORRESPONDENCE of the Beacon.)

Last Friday was day Of much en-
ioyment for the pupils and patrons Of
pabIic school No. - taught by Miss Mel
lie Greenwell, the event being splendid
school exhibition. From our knowl-
edge Of the qualifications Of the teacher
we were prepared 10 believe that this
exhibition would be quite treat and in
this expectation were not disappointed.
There were about fifty persons present,
exclusive OF the pupils, including some
of the beautiful bellies of the district
who graced the occasion with their
sweet and lovely presence, lending an
additional charm to its attractions. The
performance was opened about 1890
o'clock a. m. with salutatory by Miss
India Greenwich, delivered in an excel
lent and becoming manner. This was
followed with welcome by James J.
Cooper, also we'll delivered. The pro-
gramme is too long to be given entire,
so We will only say that among the po-
etical and prose compositions, dia-
logues, &c., it included "Casqbianca'
Little by Little" "What we Love, "
Insult and Apology" TRY Again, "
.'Eloquence," The man and Mon
ey," Vacation" &c., and concluded
with a Valedictory from Mr.. Clement
Mattingly, excellently delivered. The
children all did we'll, exhibiting but lit
tie dlffidence in the delivery OF their
respective parts, and acquitting them
selves in a manner which reflected
much credit upon themselves and their
amiable and accomplished teacher
Music preceded and followed the rendi-
ton OF each piece. The speaking over,
the pupils engaged in the merry dance
until dinner was announced which,
among other edibles, consisted of a
bountIful supply of the most Palatable
of bivalves. The delicious oyster. lem
onade and confectioneries were also II
pleHtlful supply during the evening"
The dance was again INDUCED in at in
tervals until about an hour before sun
set when the company separated, aP-
parently well pleased with the days en-
tertainment. j.

The Porter CoAMITrEE.-The fast
and lively witness, NTs. jerks, who has
90 long entertained the Potter Commit
tee and the general public has ut last
stepped down and out with eomical
shoulder shrug and defiant flourish OF
fan and gone sbost her ways which,
however decent in other respects, are
not the ways Of modest, truthful speak
ing. Even If she had been q repu'a-
bic woman, the Committee had no pow
er 20 coerce her to answer upon any
point she might elect TO keep them in
the dark about, and accordingly, when
ever sensitive spots were touched by
their questions, she HatIy refused TO an
swer. A swift witness for unhappy
John Sherman was lively Mrs. jerks,
but her oveJwIIling disposition to serve
and shield him was so apparent that she
discredited herself from the beginning
and ratker soiled than benefited her ben
efacior. Her husband, the Captain, has
a treasure for a wife, but she Is not a
success on the witness stand and he
had better retire her at once from pub
lie employment and keep keen eye on
her in all others. The celebrated Mrs.
PInkston, another lady friend Of Shcr-
man, has come 10 the surface again and
she now swears that she not only told
lie in her original statement about the
killing Of her husband and the manning
of herself. but that she was playing
"possum" when she first appeared in
public in New Orleans before the Re-
turning Board and that the visiting
statesmen" including unhappy john
knew she was putin on" Sherman,
il will be remembered, made power
full effort in the Senate TO prove this
lady a spotless wife and mother and a
MARTYR TO her loyalty. II is now IN or
der for him 10 show she is liar and
prostitute. The sub Committee at New
Orleans are interviewing Packard and
were making reasonable progress in 9TH
or respects with their Investigations at
latest reports. They expect TO meet
the general committee in few days,
and soon after, all the facts unearthed
will be collocated and arranged for pub
LEGATION. Depend upon 1t, it will be an
ugly showing when it appears for John
Sherman, Stanley Matthews and other
twisting statesmen" and will settle be-
-yond controversy that Tilden not Hayes
was entitled to the electoral votes oil
both Louisiana and Florida.

From the Washington Republican,
Hon. Ell jones Henkle,

The subject Of this sketch represents
with distinguished honor and ability the
Fifth district of Maryland. He was first
nominated for the Fourty-fourth Con-
gress by the Democracy OF the above
district in 1874. At that time the dis
trict was represented by Republican,
the Hon. VIM. J. Albert, who had been
elected by more than l, 100 majority
Many Of the leading politicians OF the
district thought it impossible Tor Mr.
Henkle TO be elected with such large
odds against him-a very strong RePub-
I,can candidate, Alex. b. Hagner, Esq,
opposing him and the Republican party
thoroughly united end jealous in sup
port of their nominee. He however
Immediately entered upon a vigorous
canvass, visiting every section OF every
county in the district. speaking every
day, and often two and three times a
day up to the day OF election, and the
result of this very able and vigorous
canvass was his election by the marvel
lous majority of lao.
His record in the Forty-fourth Con-
gress demonstrated the wisdom OF has
constituents IN their selections. In thai
body he served with great zeal and
ability as a member Of the Committee
on the District Of Columbia, taking a
very active and efficient part ia the
thorough investigation then made into

TAXES ON DRINKS.-The MISSISSIPPI
pi plan of collecting taxes upon drinks
differs from the Moffet and Clarke sys-
tens Books Of coupons are sold by
the State Auditof.to all liquor dealers.
When drink is sold the consumer re-
eeives a coupon, which entities him TO
receive from the State, in payment OF
his taxes. one cent. II two drinks are
paid for he receives an orange-colored
coupon good for two cents. If FIVE
drinks, blue paper, good for five cents.
Not only does the State enjoy an in
come from the tax on drinks, but the
consumer has Q reasonable chance oil
paying of his taxes with the orange
and blue coupons. The saloons are
crowded all the fine with men making
out their taxes.

TIE OTHER SIDE.-Careful inquiry
and examination show that there is no
Just ground for the public impression
that the House Committee on Naval
Affairs recently made report charg-
ing ex-Secretary Robson with maiiea-
sance in office, or recommending that
he be prosecuted in behalf Of the Gov
eminent, and his friends have requested
the following statement of the facts
The paper recently read in the House
by Mr.. Whitthorne, Of Tennessee, out
Of which the Misrepresentation arose,
was not authorized by the committee.
II. was presented without authority and
against precedent. as a purely personal
paper. The recent payment by order
of Congress of all the bills contracted
by Secretary Robson was the result OF
an exhaustive examination by DEM
ocratic committee Of the House. OF
which Mr.. Carlisle, Of Kentucky, was
q member. The only dissenting men,
Der OF the committee was Mr.. Whit
thOrne, who made his adverse report as
a member Of another committee. The
Robson bills were ordered paid by an
overwhelming majority in the House
and by unanimous vote IN the Senate.
This Robeson's friends regard as his
conclusive vindication. They think it
due TO justice to call attention also to
the fact that Mr.. Whitthorne's paper
referred to points of administrative dis
erection, which were decided in Mr..
RobesOn's favor by the last House Of
Representatives, when the Judiciary
Committee decided that they could not
DO made the basis Of charges.
