balm with all due speed and took the
next train to Hungary. This, as is usual
in such cases, was a COZ frmed "parlia-
mentary," which tore along at twenty
miles an hour. The carriage he entered
contained two feroCious looking MagyarG

pants of the compartment were well
dressed, good looking youth-a German
who appeared very sleepy, and an in
nocent looking old man of, say sixty the
pattern of benign and paternal mild
ness-a sort of Magyar Mr. Pickwick. A
moment later we started, The old man
addressed several remarks to the young
one, who, however, vouchsated but
sCant reply between mighty yawns and
sighs of fatigue. In very few minutes
the youthful German was snoring hard.
The old man turned to us and proved
very communicative, telling us how the
youth opposite was his son, and deplor.
ing his careless in money matters. He
goes to sleep among strangers with a
pocketful of money, is that not careless"

He got out and returned no more. The

and told him how his father had left
him behind, and that he had taken his
pocket-book with him, a startling fact to
him. The sleepy one used the most un-
flial lar guage, and uttered a howl Of
rage. He said he had no father, and
had never seen the old man before in
his life. "There were 5000 forms in
the pocket book" shouted he wildly,
"the wretch must have seen me take ii
out at the station" This is one of the
most impuient cases of robbery which

The Congressional Committee in IL

The Congressional Committee in their
report of of February, 1873, said "The
facts in regard to Mr., Garfield are as fol-
lows. Garfield agreed with Mr.. Amee
to take ten shares of Credit Mobilier
stock, but did not pay for the same. Mr.
Ames received the so per cent. dividend
in bonds, and sold them for 81 per cent,
and also received the SO per cent. cash
dividend, which, together with the
price of the stock and interest, left a
balance of 1929. This sum was paid over
to Mr.. Garfield by a check on the
Sergeant.at- Arms, and Mr.. Garfield then
understood this sum was the balance OF
dividends after paying for the stock"
Witness Garfield exp'a ned that after
the relations of Congressman and of
their votes to the Credit Mobilier began
to be agitated he told Mr.. Ames that he
would not accept the stock. Witness
Garfield also explained that the check
which Ames called a balance was only
loan from Ames to him, and that he
only accepted it to relieve himself from
the temporary embarrassment occasioned
by his trip to Europe; all of which ex.
planation was emphatically denied by
Mr.. Ames, who procured the check OF
the Credit Mobiier Company which
proved to have passed to Mr.. Garheld's
account.

Judge G P. Nicoll, being leading Re-
publican of Jersey City, and Republi-
can since the formation of the party,
spending his money and energies in its
behalf, announces his purpose to sup
port Hancock in letter, in which he
says:

waving of the bloody shirt, which keeps
the two sections of the country divided,

prosperity OF both, and | feel that |

such a partisan Republican as to justify
the keeping up of this sectional feeling

holders in power. Not only 30, but | be-
lieve General Hancock to be the better
man of the two. They tell me he has
had no experience in politics. Neither
had General Grant when he was elected
President, and at the close Of his first
term they were anxious to elect him
again. They tell me Garfield has had
experience in politics. Judging from
his record, as | have read it in the Re-
publican papers for years-and if the
Republicans do not believe them, who
would they believer General Garfield
has had too much experience in politics
already. They object to taking a Candi-

President. Grant was in the army and
was Democrat before he took the Re-
publican nomination. l believe there is

keeper of hotel, was the victim, and
the cause Of his offending the hoisting
of Garfield and Arthur banner in a

The refutation of the above we take
from an authority which even the
Leatler will hesitate to deny:
The Vermont Ku.klux story proves to
be unfounded. No such occurrence as
was alleged occurred at East Middlebur,
and no person named Farr resides there
The prosecuting officer of the county oi
Addison, in which East Middlebury if
situated, says the story is made cut Of

many articles for personal use, like the
croquet set aud dog hire, have been paid
by the Government under Grant and
Hayes's administrations until Demo-
cratic President is elected. Mr.. Hayes's
excuse for the purchase OF the passenger
rockaway is that the needs OF the
public service demanded the vehicle.
No idea of economy ever entered his
mind, for first class six passenger rocka'
ways, suitable in every way for the busi-
ness of the Executive Mansion can be
bought for $3.50. A vehicle bought built
in the costiest manner, trimmed with
the finest leather and silver, adapted fol
the conveyance of gentleman and his
family from the White House to his
summer place in the suburbs, is worth
just as much as the Government paid fol
the Executives rockaway. Moreover, II
is whispered that the carriage has been
sent to Ohio to be stored.
Nearly all the cabinet officers keep
handsome equipages at the expense o.
the government. General Devins and
Carl Schurz drive about in one-horse
rockawaye. For the use of the Postoftice
Department a handsome six seat Victo
ria, drawn by two stylish appearing bay
horses is provided, the driver is paid by
the government and often in the evening
this equipage may be seen rolling over
the fine roads in the Soldiers Home
grounds or on the drive to Brightwood
while Judge Key or his first assistant
Tyner, seated within, enjoys the scenery
and fresh country air. The State Depart
ment has its two horse vehicle also and
the War and Navy Department have
substantial carriages at the service of the
secretaries. Ifreform in the public serv'
ice is intended to include return to the
simple habits of the founders of the gov,
ernment, then reform is not to be looked
for in the present administration.
