One Of the bottest regions on the earth
Il along the Persian Gulf, where little or
no rain falls. At Bahrin the arid shore
has no fresh water, yet comparatively
numerous population contriye TO live
there, thanks to the copIous springs which
burst forth from tie bottom OF The sea.
The fresh water is got by diving. The
diver sitting on his boat, winds a great
goat skin bag around bis left arm, the
hand grasping his mouth. Then he takes
in bis right hand heavy stone, to which
is attached strong line, and thus equip
ped be plunges in and quickly reaches
the bottom. Instantly opening the bag
over the strong Jet Of fresh water, he
springs up the ascending current, at the
same time closing the bag, and is helped
aboard. The stone Is then hauled up,
and the diver, after taking breath, plnnges
sgain. Tie source Of these copious sub.
marine springs u thought 10 be In the
green bills Of Osmau, some five OF slI
hundred miles distant.

cover the tracks of John Sherman.
The alleged letter was written in
answer to one from Anderson and
Weber when that precious pair
were engaged in the work of falsify-
ing the electoral vote of West Felic-
lana, and, in answer to their de-
mands for consideration" pledges
them the protection and patronage
of the administration. Various are
the accounts that Mrs. jerks gives
of this letter, which, before she ar
rived in Washington, she professed
to know all about, and that which
she has settled down upon now is
the most audacious of all of them.
She says that the letter of Anderson
and Weber was handed to her to
deliver to Secretary Sherman that,
while waiting to do so, she aaacon-
Sci0usly bit off one corner of it, and,
not thinking it presentable in that
condition, she suppressed it and
wrote, or dictated, an answer to it
herself, signed with Sherman's
name, which was returned to An
derson as coming from Sherman.
She has succeeded in proving
nothing except her own unblushing
mendacity, and on the minds of all
unbiased persons has left the inn
preston that John Sherman did
write the letter in question for the
purpose of encouraging Andersen
to falsify the vote of West Feliciana
] Louisiana.

THE POTTER COMMISSION

All that is now left of Congress in
Washington is the Potter Investi-
eating Committee. They have
chiefly been engaged in interrogat-
ing Mrs. jerks, who appears to be
n vivaciOus Irish woman, not at all
troubled with feminine ditfidence
and gifted with an ineXhaustible
capacity for lying. 1t seems uncer-
tain who is responsible for introduce
ing her as a witness. Mr.. Potter
says that he did not, and does not
know who did. However that may
be, she evidently is there in the in
terest of John Sherman, and, slip
perry as her record may be in other
respects, she is certainly faithful to
her employees. Her first course on
her arrival was to visit the private
office of Mr.. John Sherman, where
she had long interview with that
gentleman and his attorney, Mr..
Shellerbarger, of which the details
are unknown and can only be in
ferred from their results when she
appeared before the committee.
The purpose of the committee
was to obtain from her some infor-
nation in regard to letter which
Mr.. Sherman is said to have writ
ten and which has certainly been
seen by several persons, and made
the subject of various mysterious
negotiations. The purpose of Mrs.
jerks is to battle the committee and

WATTERSON, OF KENTUCKY,
AND HEWITT, OF NEW YORK.

Though it is not of public political
interest now, we republish the Hon.
Henry WattersOn's open letter to
Mr.. Hewitt as it appeared in the
New York Sun. This is due to Mr..
Watterson, as he considers it essen
tial to his character for political
consistency. If we understand the
position Alright it is this: Mr.. Wat
terson, who was originally opposed
to the Electoral Commission, was
induced to withdraw his opposition
to it on finding that Mr.. Hewitt
and, as he inferred, Mr.. Tilden were
in favor of it. Having since dis
covered that Mr.. Tilden did not
favor it, he considers that he was
Intentionally misled in the matter
by Mr.. Hewitt; hence the following
letter to that gentleman:
You know, and know, that Mr.. Tilden
disapprOved the electoral bill. You know,
and know, that you spent Sunday, Janu-
airy IA, in New York, and he made his OBJ
jections sufficiently known to you. On
Monday evening, the 18th of January, a
meeting of the committee of adViSement
considered the terms of the bill, hypothetic-
ally submitted to it that at that meeting |
opposed them that you were dumb as an
oyster as to Mr.. T1lden'S opinions; that, IL
nally, we all agreed to support the measure,
most of us believing it the emanation of our
chief.
/ have charged, and 1 do charge, thatyour
failure to deal frankly with us on that occa-
sion, your failure to tell us what Mr.. Tilden
had said to you the day before, was a practi-
cal suppression of his more SagaciOuS cOun-
sells, and, to all intents, a betrayal of your
friend.
Now, 1 repeat and declare my charge OF
personal diShOnOr upon you, and, as you
don't wish to fight it out, and 1 am sure /
don't, l will make you this proposition
You select two members of the committee OF
adviSement, of which both of us were mem
bcrs; | will select two these four shall select
the fifth, and if l do not make my charge
good 1 will make you a public apology.
