His Letter to the President Demanding an
Investigation of he Charges Preferred
Against Him.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 23-SThe unpublished
correspondence sent to the senate relating
to the case of ex-Marshal Henry has been
made public. Marshal Henry, in the
course of lengthy letter to the president,
says: With deep sense of the injustice
done me by the letters of George Bliss
and the attorney general recommending
my removal, I respectfully and earnestly
ask that you direct further inquiry to de-
termine the truth of the complaints made
against me. am confident that
even hasty investigation by any fair meth
cd will convince you am accused wrong
fully, and that the most searching in
quiry will show am the victim of great
wrong, and that the attorney general has
been misinformed. The complaints,
though general in character, all do me the
greatest injustice, and one. that was re-
sponsible for much of the opposing SEN
timent to the case of the governments, gave
me deepest pain. AS to the complaint
| that I was reported to have
said something in newspaper, 1
desire to state first. what I
have not said, had not said I was re-
moved because I was appointed by the
late president. No one but a coward would
get behind tombstone for defense. 1 ask
| no clemency, charity nor favor, but that
simple justice be done in my case. The
attorney has been misinformed and i'm
posed upon by designing men, and the
weight of his great department used to
| crush me. All 1 ask is a speedy method
of inquiry, that fair minded mer will APP
approve. l have never said that
'',the government had 10 case"
invite the closest investigation
into all complaints. IS granted, it will
show that have bees prosecuted beyond
measure. and tn, | GIVE uttered in silence
| the most wicked c.I entries. Ii needs only
| few hours inqulr3 ~ any unprecedented
man or men to iearn the truth or error of
the information received by the attorney
general and expressed in his letter to you.
l have been ready to resign at any time
when it was yOnr pleasure 80 ask me. I
make no fight for office. as has been stated,
but only for Il fair method of inquiry
You, Mr.. President. have also been accused
III some OF the newspapers with Delnx
faint hearted, in the prosecution of the
star route cases. l know it to he untrue.
There is evidence to believe that the false
statements como from the same men who
| were maligniug me. While not complain
ing of your action III my case, / DO invite
the closest investigation into my official
| conduct. Very respectfully,
Signed c. z. HENRY.
This letter was referred to The attorney
general, who in reply reiterates the charges
before made against Henry, and says he
merited the punishment received. District
| Attorney Corkhill follows with letter
similar in tone, III which he seeks to fgsten
upon Marshal Henry the responsibility for

His Sister-in-Law and Kaiser Wilhelm.
Special Telegram to the Globe.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Dec. 23.-Several
months ago the public press announced
imprisonment in Prussia of Barney Horst
man, German citizen of Lafayette, who
went on visit to his native land about
eight months ago. He returned to-day,
the shackles thrown off and himself in
full possession of his liberty. Horstma n
came to America twelve years ago. Be-
fore his departure, however, he had been
drafted into the service of Kaiser
Wilhelm, but left in time to relieve him
from carrying the Wagner gun in the
ranks of the valorous Prussians. As the
years passed by and he became natural
lied and citizen of this free land, his old
father died in the land beyond the sea, land
left handsome estate. Horstman longed
for the scenes of his childhood, and could
not resist the desire to visit them, which he
accordingly did as above narrated. Some
difficulty between himself and the relict of
his eldest brother relative to the adjustment
of matters pertaining to his fathers estate
generated bad blood between them, and
Barney uttered some remarks about
his sister-in-law and the sovereign of
united Germany that would not be received
with favor in polite society. Whereupon
she retaliated by declaring she would
make it hot for him, and shortly thereafter
the officers of the government seized him,
put him in shackles. and he was thrown in
to prison. A trial speedily followed, and
Horstman was sentenced to six months
confinement in prison. He has served his
time. and comes home, in all probability,
with less respect for the venerable monarch
of Prussia, although he may admire the
prompt manner of transacting business in
that country. He is very cordially vel
coined home by German friends.

Hugh and Tom Ewing, had meantime gone
to Leavenworth, las, and bought large
tract of land and practiced law. They
offered Sherman an interest in their law
firm as we'll as in their lands at Leaven-
worth, and the firm was launched. Judge
Lecompte admitted him to fhe bar on the
ground of general intelligence. Sherman's
old army friends gave him contracts on the
military roads, &c. There was not much
profit in Kansas prospecting, and Don
Carlos Buell., who was in the war depart
ment, wrote to Sherman that he could get
military college in Louisiana which was
about to be established. Mrs. Sherman was
to remain at Lancaster with the family
while the general went South. The military
school was up toward Texas about
Alexandria. While Sherman was getting
this institution ready his brother was run

sentatives against Bocock, of Virginia,

brother of the terrible abolitionist ought

Pneumatic Boll-Call,

A system of pneumatic call-bells and
annunciators that has been in use for
some time in England has been recently
modified and improved for introduction
into America. It consists essentially of
q small bellows, an air-tube, and q
second bellows that may be used to
strike gong-bell or control the disls
of an annunciator. The bellows, which
is quite small and intended to be
operated by hand, is closed by pressure
of the finger on rush-button, by
pulling handle, or by pressing on a
rubber bag that forms the tassel or end
of cord hung from the wall. The
closing of the bellows sends an impulse
of compressed air through SIN all tube,
aud causes a circular bellows to ex-
pand. At the end of this bellows is an
upright rod that moves segment of a
gesred wheel. A smaller wheel geared
to this segment moves with it, and
causes the hammer of o gong-bell to
give series OF rapid strokes. The bell
"chatters like an electric hell for q
moment, and the pressure being re-
moved. the ringing mechanism returns
to its original position by its own
weight. No clock-work or spring is re-
quired, all the parts being self-aoting.

seems likely to be of value in dwell!

Preparations for wedding feast be-

advance of the happy day. SO that the
guests may prepare for two or three

people to inquire how they do it. There
