the encouragers1 and abettors. at the
least, of murder and arson.
This is not q trivial incident to be dis
missed as unworthy of future attention
or inquiry. 1t is the deliberate and re-
iterated utterance of Senator OF the
United States, representing certainly
one of the most polished and powerful
of the States. 1t relates to and was in
tended to characterize the conduct Of
the whole of the people of another
State towards their brothers of the
other sections. 1t is impossible that
amicable relations can continue between
communities whose inhabitants, not
withstanding their Constitutional rights,
can only pass their respective borders
at the risk of the dagger or the torch.
1t is no exaggeration, therefore. to
describe this as q subject of transcend
ant National importance. 1t was
nothing less than the State of Massa-
chusetts arraigning and summoning to
trial the State of Mississippi upon q
charge of conspiring to murder and
burn. upon the evidence of Henry L.
Dawes. He pledged his honor and,
veracity that venerable Massachusetts,
refugee from Mississippi was now to
his knowledge in the State OF Massa-
chusetts. and that he had lied from his
home in Mississippi because his factory
had been burned and his servants muir
sdered. He refused to produce him.
He refused his name. He refused to
give even, a hint as to the place in
Mississippi where this crime against
him, against society, against the Nation,
was committed. Upon all these points,
when interrogated, he stood mute. Y
Days 90, by, and it is not until the
original story on which Dawes had
embroidered his atrocious Indictment
of Mississippi had been published in a
Boston newspaper that Dawes takes
any step towards confessing the crime
of which that publication convicts him.
Many, many years ago-so long ago,
indeed, as perhaps, to be only known to
Dawes as a tradition-the City of Bos-
ton sent TO the House of Representa-
tives man endowed with all the gifts
which Boston most delights to honor.
He was well-born. He was reckoned
an ornament even to the distinguished
college whose degree he bore. He
wrote. he spoke with equal strength
and elegance. There was no distinc-
ton. however high, to which he might
not reasonably have aspired. But. I'M
fortunately. amid the acquisitions and
treasures of his education, a sacred
and punctilious regard for truth had
not been included. He was detected
in false statement. In one day-in a
moment, as it were-his present honor
and his future hopes vanished away.
Upon him the sun never shone again
with its wonted luster. Everything
that had heretofore seemed bright
and unclouded became to him as under
a perpetual eclipse. Public opinion,
like jury. changed his coqntenance
his city, his State, his Nation, his name
is heard no more forever. AS the case
of Dawes, through the publication
made in the Boston Daily Advertiser
and through the attitude assumed by
Dawes, now stands before the country.

case of Fletcher?-N. Y. World. Tie 1i

President Garfield is ingenious
but hardly ingenious in his explanation
OF the letter he wrote asking Brady to
give all the assistance possible in the
Indiana campaign last year. 1t is all
well enough to talk about Brady's
having made mint of money by
specializing in telephone stocks (stocks,
by the way, are not always remunera-
tive), but Garfield knew very well that
there was any amount of scandal about
the 'Star-rOute'' mail contracts with
which Brady was connected. Garfield is

and severe contribution of Massachu-
sets to maintain the high standard of
Senatorial dignity, imagine anybody is
fooled by the pretense he makes of
maintaining the Republican control of
the Senate business. by having all DEM
ocratic motions to go into executive
session voted down and Immediately
thereafter taking the Senate into exec
utive session on his own motion? That
is mere child play and as transparent
as moonshine. Every body in the coun-
try knows that the Democrats forced
the Senate into executive session and
the fact remains if their motions are
voted down dozen times day.-Sk

Sickness in the Cars-A Simple and
Easy Preventive.

Many persons, especially ladies, are
great sufferers from that form of nausea
and headache known as g car-sickness. -
A journey by rail has for them all the
discomfort and suffering that an ocean
voyage has to majority of travellers.
The effects of the motion of the car
range from q mild disturbance of the
stomach and an accompanying headache
to sdeathly Sickness with intense
nausea and complete prostration, ac-
cording to the condition and sensitive
ness of the victim. In the ightest form
the sensation is sufficiently unpleasant
to make travel by rail thoroughly dis
agreeable; in its worst, and by no means
uncommon type, it invests this necessary
and convenient method OF journeying
with dread and despair. A simple and
harmless preventive Of car-sickness has
recently come to the knowledge of the
writer, under circumstances that leave
no doubt Of its efficacy with some per-
sons; and if the device will work equally
we'll in other cases, q. knowledge of it
ought certainly be spread abroad. It is
at least worth q trial Of all who suffer
this inconvenience in travelling. A lady
who had occasion to take q short trip on
the Lowell Road-and she never travels
by rail for pleasure was, as is usual
with her, as thoroughly sick as ever a
landsman is on the heaving deep, !"
by the time she had ridden dozen
miles. The condnctorof the palace car,
who was apparently very familiar with
such cases, told the sufferers companion
that sheet of writing paper, worn next
to the person, directly over the chest,
was sure preventive of the trouble in
nine cases out of ten. He had recon.
mended it to hundreds of travellers, and
rarely knew it to fail. The prescription
seemed very like sscharm''-a horse
chestnut carried in the pocket to ward off
rheumatism, or red string around the
neck TO prevent bleeding at the nose.
But it was simple, and could at least
do no harm. For the return trip, q
sheet of conQod6h writing note paper was
fastened inside the clothing as directed.
Result tn perfectly comfortable journey,
without hint of the old sickness that
had for years made travel by rail 3 ter
ror. It was SO like superstition, or q
happy accident, however, that the lady
would not accept it as real until sub
iected to more severe test. This came

WASHINGTON, August 5.-The tenor
of the verdict in the Whitaker case has
been the subject of good deal of specu-
lation. 1t has been generally understood
that it was averse TO Whitaker, but this
was not positively known until now.
Tire report of the court-martial arrived
at the office of The Judge Advocate Cen
eral some time ago, but owing to Gener-
al Swaims attendance upon the patient
at the White House twas not examined.
1t is now being revised ami will be ready
for submission to the President for his
final action just as soon as he is able to
give his attention 10 1t. The essence OF
the verdict is the finding of Whitaker
guilty of committing the alleged outrage
on himself. This verdict is unanimous
aud is coupled wl;a the unanimous re-
commendation that he be dismissed the
service. The Judge Advocate General
will approve this verdict, there is not the
slightest doubt aboubt that, and thus
will end the most remarkable military
trial on record. 1t has cost the govern
meut yearly $25 900 to decide who NUT
