IT sMELT TO HEAVEN. :

Yesterday afternoon a DEMOCRAT reporter
paid visit to the nuisance wharf OF the First
District. in order to learn whether the reports
in circulation relative to the stencil there were
correct or not.
It was about half-past O'Clock. and the sun
was sending down some Of his most torrid rays
fresh wind was blowing frem the southeast,
and instead Of the fragrance OF orange flowers
there was waited from the wharf all the forty
stenches of Cologne. First It was the faint odor
OF decaying meat. then the degrees were In
creased until the essence of putresence was car
red to the nostrils ofthe unfortunate passer- by.
The DEMOCRAT reporter. daring to ventur 9
nearer. walked down the wharf to watch more
closely the operations of the vidangeurs. There
were probably some fifteen floats laden with
full barrels awaiting their turn to dump their
loads First came an ebony driver with twelve
barrels, with an alacrity worthy Of a better
cause. he seized barrel and with one motion

THE WOMAN WHO REALLY SUFFERS.
Mrs. Mary oliver whose Hair HAS
Turned Gray Through Modification.
PHILADELPHIA Times.1

WASHINGTON, March 2O.-There is q lady
In Washington who might justly bring suit
against both plaintiff and defendant In the
Oliver Cameron case for consequential dam,
ages. To the best OF my belief the only real
sufferer from wounded feeling in the matter
is another Mrs Mary Oliver, who Is utterly
innocent of aught save the misfortune Of hav-
ing the same name as the plaintiff and hay
vania to cerkship In the Treasury Depart
ment at the instance of Simon Cameron when
Senator. He knew her husband who was one
OF the stauneh supporters OF the clan Came
ron, and advised him to run Tor Congress-,
Mr. Oliver did 50 and was defeated, ana lost
fortune and courage to battle with life. He
died not long afterward, and his widow was
appointed, at Senator Cameron's Instance, TO
a elerkskip In the Office OF the Controller OF
the Currency, which she has for several years
filled with credit to herself, and has earned
the esteem of all associated with her. The
similarity Of the name with that OF Senator
Camerons pursurer as we'll as the fact that
the other was also appointed at his request to
q clerkship In the same department, has,
from the time the suit began, two years ago,
until now, wrought untold wretchedness to
the innocent woman. Naturally she has
been perpetually confounded with the
litigant. The day after the suit first
commenced newspaper men began began IN
has denied being the plaintiff she has
rarely been believed by strangers, and she
suffers in consequence, Her hair has actual
ly turned gray since the suit was Instituted
as result Of the constant modification to
which she is subjected. She has told my
mother more than once Of nights Of agony
following the blunders which have panied
and Inundated her whenever she has been
brought in contact with strangers, and the
not surprising refusal Of those acquainted
with her to credit her denials Of being the
"Simon-pure" Oliver. 1t certainly Is a very
hard case, and 1T seems to me the least the
clan Cameron, which possesses SO much In
fiuence with the Pennsylvania Legislature,
can do is to have her name changed.
