BEARING DOWN ON AcKLEN.
The Post this m nrning, referring to the
case Of Representative Acklen, says several
important facts transpired in this case We
terday which the Post Is enabled to chroDi
Gle exclusively this morning. The testi-
mony adduced before the Committee is OF
&C aracter most damaging to Acken.
Not only have all the original newspaper
allegations been entirely sustained, but
several new charges have been brought for
ward in the evidence and substantiated by
it. The final report of the Committee will
sum up the case in manner so explicit
that it will appear in the nature OF formal
indictment against the offending Congress
man.
While no direct recommendation will be
made in the report it will be of such 0
character that the House will be compelled
in self respect to, expel Acklen. The mem
bers of the Foreign Affairs Committee have
about made up their minds that this is the
only course that can be pursued in the
premises, and in their individual capacity
will advocate the expulsion when the mat
ter is brought to the attention Of th,
House.

Chnste but not VirtlEouS:

A shrewd lady writer has this to

women wholly entitled virtaous
who are in other respects bad car
iactures on cur Sex; women VINO
hold up their own skirts and go
about strewing garbage to def1le
others with; women who feed upon
disgust and suspicion, who g,ther
up with untiring Zeal all the bits OF
scandal floating about, to turn over,
add something to and send forth
again in the terminating air, like a
deadly miasma, to d~stroy. Wo-
men who are never under any
circumstances by anybody heard
telling good OF any one; but who
meet them when you will, can al
ways make misersbly uncomfort-
able, and doubtful even OF just
Providence. Women need not
condone or conceal the faults OF
their sisters to be charitable or
womenly; by simply being silent
or leaving unspoken opinions which
can do no good and much harm,
they can do themselves great credit
and the sex honor. Unless d man
is totally d,praved and based, he
will keep disgracetul title tatlle u
himself, and shun companions where
small talk Is at a premium. But
women who call themselves ladies,

title them to be such, lend them
