Gibson and the President.

1t is a maxim of law, believe, that a
man in court is not allowed to d;scredit his own
witness. In what kind of a situation will Presi-
dent Garfield be placed when the A. N. Gibson re-
port comes before the grand jury and a court of
justice to establish the guilt of members of the al
legged star-route ring?7 If I remember rightly
and it has not been long ago as to severely tax
anybodys memory-9Ir CT bsOn'S peculiar detective
talents were once employed in working up q
case against Mr.. Garfield. His report on the sub
ject of Credit Mobilisr and the alleged paving was
received a standard authority by the political en-
emieS of ,he RepubE N party. L was not 50 ac-
cepted, however by the then Mr.. Garfield or the now
President Garfield or his political friends. The
question naturally arises is Mr. Gibson, detective
a credible witness for the administration and an
incredible witness against it? Or Is the evidence
obtained by Mr.. Gibson against Mr.. Garfield as
member of Congress any more untrustworthy than
the evidence worked up" by Mr.. Gibson against
Mr.. Brady or Mr.. Dorsey? SPECTATOR,

THE WIDOW,

She is modest. but not bashfiIl:
Free and easy, but not bold;
Like an apple ripe and mellow
Not too young, not too old.
HalEinviting, half-repulsing;
Now advancing, and now shy;
There is mischief in her dimpIe;
There is danger in her eye.
Are you sad? How very serious
VIII her handsome face becomei
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Lonely, friendless, fearful, dumb.
Are you mirthful? How her laughter,
Silver-sounding, will ring out,
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
Like the angler does the trout.
She has studied human nature,
She is schoOIed in all her arts,
She has taken her diploma
AS the mistress of all hearts;
She can tell the very moment
When TO sigh and when 10 smile
Oh, maid is sometimes charming,
But widow all the while.
Ye old bachelors of forty
Who have grown so bald and wise;
Young Americans of twenty,
With the love-locks in your eyes,
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But know little widow
Who could win and fool you all.

THE article commendatory of ex-Gov-
ernor Alex. R. Shepherd, and which was
such an able defense of his efforts to
build up Washington and make it
worthy to be the Capital of the country,
which was copied into THE REPUBLICAN
few days since, was by strange inad-
vertence credited to the Kansas City
Times. The paper from which it was taken
and which is entitled to the credit is the
Kansas City Journal. The editor of the
Journal, Hon. R. T. Van Horn, was a
member of Congress dur4fg the period of
Governor Shepherds labors, and there
fore knew perfectly whereof he wrote;
and tits sincerely regretted that his paper
was not given the proper credit at the
time the article was republished.
