THE INVESTIGATION.
Examination of Witnesses by the Con-
gressiOnal Committee.

Mr.. W. s. Grant, of Covington, was the
first witness called at the afternoon session
yesterday. The names of the men who
were brought over from Covington were
read to the witness, who gave the general
character of each of those with whom he
was acquainted. A portion of the men he
represented to be eX-iremen and eX-police-
men, with good character, but a flew of them
were disreputable men.
John Birnbaum, City Sealer, testified that
he suggested no names for Deputy Mar
shals, but was acquainted with a few of
them, all of whom we're men of good repu-
taton. His precinct received $50 from the
Campaign Committee, but he never knew
OF any money being received from WASH
ngton.
J. S. Harris. OF Covington, one of the
affidavit makers stated that he saw several
of the COyington men at the polls, and
thought from their conversation that they
were attempting to repeat. There were
several things IN his affidavit which he dis
claimed

MT. harris resumed ms testimony thlS
morning, and stated in answer to Mr..
Browne, that he saw Francis at the Eighth
Ward and also several other of the Ken
tuckians just as they were leaving the polls
but did not speak to them al this time nor
did he ask them at the Nineteenth
Ward if they had got their work
in yet, as his affidavit states. Gillespie
told him that they had got their work in,
but they never told him that they had put
| in twenty five or thirty votes in the Eighth
| Ward, nor did he authorize any one to state
| that in his affidavit. He told Sergeant
Bunker at the Third-street Ststion-house
that there was q gang of repeaters about,
and pointed out two of them. All that the
affidavit states about his saying or doing
anything at the Eighth Ward, | never
would have sworn to it if | had known it
was in the affidavit for it is false. He saw
| Farrell with a ballot in his hand about to
vote, but | advised him not to and he de-
sisted but saw none of the rest attempt to
vote. He heard two other men state in
Covington that night that they had been
paid for coming over to watch the polls,
but did not see any one have large amount
of money. Tom Shay wrote the affidavit.
Mr.. Browne at this point asked the witness
to write his name several times, and after
comparing them with the name on the af-
fidavit, placed the names and the affidavit
in evidence. In answer to Mr.. Carlisle,
that he sat down with the man
who made the affidavit and to him what he
knew. The man wrote it down as he sup
posed as he told it, but it seems now that
there was great deal else added. He fur
ther said that when the boys were hired he
understood that they were not to disturb
Republican repeaters but nothing was said
on the subject.
Patrick ]. Bolan, Of Covington, was next
sworn and testified that he was police of
ficer; that he knew Watkins, one of the
Kentuckians to live in an assignation house
and had been before the Police Court, to-
gether with his WIFE At this point Messrs
Browne and Condor objected to questions
being asked the witness respecting specific
acts affecting his character, and the Chail
maintained that only the general reputa
ton could be inquired into.
Mr.. Campbell then came in the room and
stated that Chas Hayman, witness in
this investigation, had been arrested by ar
order from the County Prosecuting Office
but the Committee decided that they would
settle the matter when the time come.
John Goodson, Marshal OF Covington
also testified respecting the character of the
men who came over on election day. TC
two or three he gave bad character, bu
against the remainder he had nothing tC
say.
Jerry Mahony testified respecting tn,
trouble in the Twentieth Ward, which ha
already been described.

CAREY AND THE PRINCE.
Louis Eugene in Love With Winsome En-
glish Lassie.

Carey, the lieutenant who did not save
Prince Napoleon, IS condemned, says II
London letter writer, before Ee is heard
on this side of the ocean. But when all
the facts come out, It will l fear, bc an.
other case of sacrificing the Junior for the
seniors faults. Ii has been shown no
doubt, over and over again in this CAM
pAign, that brave man my turr back
for comrade and rescue him under fire {:
but we know nothing Of the cases in
which brave men did not risk their lives
in the interests of others. If the prince
had been an ordinary officer VIC should
have heard little or nothing about the
affair. The Zulus had established such II
funk" in the British camp that Carey,
who at all times seems to have behaved
splcndidly, possibly had no other thought
but to escape, and he was evidently un-
der the impression that the prince was be-
hind him. suppose We shall know more
about it soon. In the meantime VIC arc
getting up an utlsecmly fuss about Dean
Stanley permission, asked and given, for
Il statue OF the prince to bc placed in
Westminster Abbey. Influence is
being used to make the dean recall his
mandate. The Daily News leads the at
tack. But Stanley is not the man to give
way, and some of his friends think his
broad liberalism ought to protect him ut
least from the Ne,cs. 1t has been said Of
him, with truth, that he is liberal enough
to let Cardinals Manning and Newman
celebrate mass in the Abbey if they
would consent to have Darwin preach q
sermon on the occasion. By the way,
there is some reason to believe that the
Prince Napoleon had "a love affair"
but the young lady was not q princess.
Nor was it exactly romance of the King
Cophetua character. Modcmoisclle was
an English girl at Chiselhurst, her name
Smith. Some people say this was a
Princess incognita. Not at all. Ny in
formant is an old inhabitant Of the village.
'The Prince was downright in love with
her; he used to see her in chapel, and he
often spoke to her outside chapel, and he
was quite in earnest, and it made the
Empress very anxious" So runs the
story, and, if you saw the fresh, pretty,
rosy, English village beauty you might
we'll believe it to be true.

In order to have lettuce for winter use,
SOW the seeds in September. If planted
in sheltered situation and protected by
loose covering Of straw and evergreen
boughs they will stand the winter we'll.
If transplanted in cold frame they will
do better and produce more tender, deli

sary is to build frame Of coarse boards,
covered with closely fitting glass sash,
and place it in a sunny spot, somewhat
protected. In this plant the lettuce sets
about six inches apart, in good ground,
and keep them properly watercd. They
will grow all winter, and in the early

London, (Ont.) Special, Sept. 81
On July 23rd a Muncey Indian named
JOSIAH Do1tater, residing on the Delaware
reservation, came to this city with load Of
potatoes. During his peregrinatioDs through.
out the city he inbibed considerable liquor,
and about II o'clock in the forenoon he
committed felonious assault upon little
girl about 6 years of age named Prudholme,
who was playing with same companions on
the sidewalk. The Indian, on discovery,
fled for the Muncey reservation. The mat.
tor was reported to the police, and scout
was employed by them to report on the first
occasion that Josiah left the wigwams Of bis
tribe for civilization. In a few days the
scout reported that Doxtater was
on his way to the city, and the
police lost no time in arrestine
him. At the court Of interim sessions on
August 2, Judge Elliott, after remarkiue
upon the Nervousness of his crime, said:
Eighteen months ago you were convicted
of a similar offense near Delaware, for which
you were sentenced to six months impris.

that imprisonment alone will not
deter you. The sentence of the
court is that you he imprisoned
three months in the common jail with hard

 The New York Tri5Hae's Utah editorial correspondent in recent letter says: The Mormon plan for solving the polygamy problem is to secure the admission of Utah, during the coming winter, as State. Every argument, every consideration likely to weigh in Washington. will be put forward to persuade Congress to pass an enabling act, thus placing Polyg- amy and other questions entirely under the control of the Mormons. The Tribune says: On it's face, this would seem an impossible scheme, but we have seen enough of Demo- cratic rule in Congress to know what the Bourbon majt rity means. The State of Utah would elect two Demo crats t0 the United States Senate, would cast three electoral votes for 8 Democratic candidate for President, and would, in case of an election by the House, give vote which would ueutralize that of Puritan Massa- chusetts. There is q stake here for which the Democratic party might be desperate enough to play.
