That lnvestlgaai0n.

MEssRs. EDIToRs:-In your paper Of
the first noticed paragraph, without
signature, stating that the committee
proposed to wait until Monday next for
evidence that the friends Of Mr.. Dutch
or might produce. In Yesterday s
'Every Evening" noticed that it is
stated that the committee held meeting
on Monday evening and resolved in or
der to free themselves from the imputa'
tian OF acting unjustly towards Mr.
butcher to hear any evidence that
might be forthcoming up to Monday
night. know not by what authority
those statements are made, but If cor
rect would like to ask the gentlemen
of the committee who is it that is acting
the part of prosecutor in this case.
Will they please inform the public
why they have seen proper to tax" &c
ton to bring Crawford Spear b-Ioie
them, and why, upon thei' action, one
of their members becalne all active mes
senger to hunt up MI. Moore, and why
they demanded, by official action, that
l should appear as witness, after
informed them that was not there as
a witness, but for the purpose Of look
ing after the interests of MIR. butcher.
Now, | would ask in all co umon fair
ness why the committee do not proceed
with their investigation.
They must remember that they are
an investigating committee and were
chosen for this purpose, and cannot rs
Gaping that responsibility it is now too
late for this, their action as shown by
their official record clearly defines their
duties, they have done very we'll SO far
in producing unfavorable witnesses,
they insisted upon my telling them
what some one else had told me, after
had in behalf of Mr.. butcher objected
to hearsay.. evidence, as | said before
they have done very we'll so far, but
they cannot afford to be- nItoo much of
hurry in closing this case, it will not
get any worse for MIR butcher. Had
they not better show some activity in
looking in the past life of Mr.. butcher,
he has been fourteen years before the
public and is well known, and witness
es could be procured by the committee to
show up the past deeds of Mr.. butcher.
This would add some weight to his
sworn statement, and might materially
change the opinion OF the three gentle
men that are reported to have decided
against him. No gentlemen let US net
be in too much of hurry. The charac-
ter of man who has been fourteen
years before the people and the welfare
of his wife and six children are at
stake; better send to LeOminister, Mass
achusetts and other points, and search
into the life of this man, and you
will find that it is nothing new for him
to help the unfortunate, upon whom he
has suent thousands of dollars, and |
think 1t would not be amiss to hunt up
some of the witnesses that Mrs. Watson
refers to, nor would it be amss for them
to recollect the relations that Mrs. Wat.
son swears existed between herself
and Mrs. Bell. All these points are i'm
have not time TO enuner-
ate, but don't be in hurry gentlemen,
you have done very well for the one
side, but do not stop there, but 60 ON
with your investigation.

THE lot Of the Beaver Girl who
Married o Negro.


Annie Moore, the young woman OF
Beaver, Pa, who caused a sensation last
May by eloping with and marrying a
negro, has been found living quietly
with her negro husband, Frank Alex
ander, in the small town of Salem,
Ohio, about seventy-fve miles from
Pittsburg. Her husband is rather
good-loeking negro, Of pleasant address.
The girl says she is contented and
happy, and the only thing she seems
anxious about now is her piano, which
her father gave her some years ago,
but which is still at home. Her father
was terribly seandalized by her strange
conduct, and has since tried, though in
vain, to have Annie arrested and sent
ITO an insane asylum.
For some time previous to the elope-
ment Annie had given her parents a
great deal of trouble by her reckless,
wayward conduct, but being an only
daughter she was spoiled by indul-
gence. She had a quarrel with her
parents on Wednesday night, May IA,
and early on the following morning
left her home and met the negro by an
appointment which she had made the
night before. The two went to Roches-
ter, about mile from Beaver, to the
house of a colored clergyman, who mar
ried them in the presence OF two white
men, whom they had called in to act as
witnesses.
The couple then took the next train
back to Beaver, where tie negro hired
a room in house which had three
rooms only, two of which were already
occupied by negro families. The reck-
less girl sent home for her trunk, piano
and some of the ornaments from her
room, and this was the first intimation
her mother had of the marriage. The
mother tried 70 persuade the girl to re
turn to her home, but she refus-d.-
Her father, who is United States Store
keeper in Indiana county, and is veal
thy, was not at home at the time. Soon
afterward the couple disappeared,
threats having been openly made by
the young men Of Beaver Of tarring and
feathtring the negro. Annie is twenty
years old. She is brunette, with
large eyes, exceedingly pretty tac-.
and fine form. Her family is one of
the best in that part of the State.

Two OF the RrnDd" COOped In a
Gotham Jail.

Robert and George Norwood, Of Della
ware, who have been in the Hudson
County Jail for some time on charge
of assault, We're yesterday released.
The assault was very triiling one, and
was justified by the fact that William
johnson, tn" complainant, colored
man, had taken Robert Norwood's hat
from his head to replace his own which
he'd been blown overheard.
After the court had ordered their
discharge the Norwoods complained
that William D. DAILY, who had been
their counsel, but who was not in court,
had taken from them at various times
money 10 the amount of S227. 80 in re-
turn for which he had rendered no SER
vice, allowing them to lie in jail with
out making an effort to secure their re.
lease. The court criticised Mr.. DAILY $
action severely, but as no formal charge
was made no action was taken.

A heartless joke was penetrated at

congressman, as they passed by the
box, read the sign denotingits purpose.
They rushed back to their desks, OBJ
tained all the spare copies If the
$ peech-s they had on hand and cruelty
filled the box to the very top.
