THE ELECTION INVESTIGATION.

SYNOPSIS OF TESTIMONY TAKEN BY THE SEN
ATE COMMITTEE.
The Senate committee inquiring into the
alleged frauds in the late election, of which
Senator Wallace is Chairman, and heretofore
known as the Teller Committee, resumed the
taking of testimony at Washington last week.
George c. Gorham, late Secretary ofthe
Senate, and also Secretary of the Re-
publican Congressional Campaign Committee,
was the first witness examined. He said that
during the Congressional campaign of 1878
about $1O6,OOO was raised for Republican cam
paign purposes; $4,000 from Federal officers
and employees by voluntary contribution, and
the remainder from friends of the party not
holding Office Perhaps $1,000 or $4,000 came
from Congressman. No contributions were asked
from national banks, as such A canvass
among wealthy friends of the cause in New
York city resulted in obtaining about $4,000.
There may have been some bankers contribut-
ing Some lady employees of the Government
insisted on contributing. Of 100000, about
$4,000 was expended for documents, about
$4,000 was paid employees of the committee,
and $4,000 for furniture and general expenses
This left $4,000, of which $54, 600 was sent to
different States, and 81 500 was paid to speak
ers for expenses. Of the balance, $5,7O0 was
lost by the failure of the German American
National Bank, and $500 remains on hand
GA-OSCTotaTy Oh tIe senate GOrnam was De-
fore the committee again on the second day of
the sitting, and produced the books of sub
scriptions in the departments, and the list Of
moneys sent to different States The National
Committee aided nineteen Southern Congress-
ional districts with an average Of 1868, and
ffty-eight Northern districts with an average
Of s712 No aid was given to 212 districts. The
policy was to devote the money to close districts
About nine districts in Ohio were thus helped
The witness thought the subscription in the
Treasury Department might amount to $12, 600
or $13 oO0 instead OF 81 600 or $S coo, as stated
the day before. About $4,000 was subscribed in
the Postofice Department Very little was got
from the Interior Department James M. Kerns,
United States Marshal for the Eastern district
OF Pennsylvania, testified that he thought, az
TAR as United States Supervisors and Marshals
are concerned, Philadelphia could do without
them very well The expenses Of United States
Supervisors in 1878 amounted to $27, 440
Special attention was paid to Randall's district,
because it was in q bad part OF the city, where
riots frequently occur.

Of mind and keen appreciation of the con

which this disastrous war was forced upon
him. Without much education, although
he is by no means ignorant he shows the
qualities of an excellent statesman. He is
a keen reader of human nature and a skill
full tactician and warrior.
At the moment of his capture, when his
pursuers attempted to seize him, Cetewayo
stretched forth his hands saving, in com
posed and tranquil voice: Kill me if you
like, but do not touch me- The person OF
a Zulu King is sacred" This appeal was
respected by his captors, and since then no
