Copperheads, as they were then cali
ed. He was publicly censured by
a vote of the House one day for the
use Of indecorous language concern
ing the body Of which he was q mem
Der. Shortly after this event he was
seen coming out OF the White
Houselate one night. What passed
between these two men was never
told by either, bat Mr.. Woods
course OH public questions was
materially changed by the conyer-
sation which took place. He was
never after so violent in his opposi-
ton to the war and war measurers.

TOWNE--SLAUSON.

The Sequel to ST. Paul Tragedy De-
velcped in Missouri.
The foliowi g marriage notice appears In the
Kansas City Journal, of the 18th inst;
March 1e. 1881. at the resi- lencs of ". A Blu nkr,
Chicago, ILL.,, to Mrs. Mary II Slauson, OF Wauke-
sha, Wisconsin.
The principals in this matrimonial transac.
ton are well remembered in st. Paul. On the
14th day Of August, 1879, Charles B. slauson,
a well-known mechanic of thi. city, blew out
his own brains on the steps of the First Bap-
tist church. on the corner of Ninth and Wa.
couta streets. The affair created great SEN
sation at the time, and the fact of his choos-
ing the spot indicated, taken in connection
with the fact that his wife was member OF
that church, occasioned a good deal OF gossip.
The inquest which was held on the
day Succeeding the tragedy did
not result in showing any ade-
quate cause for the suicide, and indeed no
effort was made, apparently, to ascertain wha
impelled the deed Even, at that time, how
ever the prophetic soul of the GLOBE was
abroad in the land, and in concluding the re-
port of the inquest the following paragraph
was published:
'During this serious and painful ordeal
Mrs. Slauson has been buoyed upin her grief
by the kindly attentions of Mr.. W. B: Towne:
He has been assiduous in his attentions and
contributions, and at one time contemplated
accompanying the remains to their final rest.

circumstances of her husbands taking OIL,

the receipts here were only 23,546,0 600
bushels against 34,oO0,0Oo the pre-

opened at an advance over yesterdays
closing, and after free trading at rather un.
settled range ofvalues closed on call at 2P. NJ.
at the lowest range of prices for the day.
The buying has been liberal, but the decline in
stocks and the break in provisions early un'
settled matters and acted against the bull
side.
Provisions considerably unsettled, as is
natural with markets based upon man1pula
tion, reacting sharply from the lowest range
of prices after the call. The report that
large army was concentrated on the Greek
frontier carried firn,er feeling, and we close
on curb at s1.05x for May wheat, SIS. 05 for
May pork and $10.47x for May lard.
