MR.BUELL, the editor of THE CRITIC and Cdpi-
tai, of this city, who was summoned TO appear be-
fore the Senate Whisky Investigation commit
tee to-day and substantiate the charges he
had made in his papers against certain par
ties In connection with the passage OF the
Whisky bill by the House, surprised the COM
mittee and all the spectators by denying all
knowledge Of the subject and saying that he
did not write under oath, but in a Pickwickian
sense. Mr.. Hawley a member of the commit
tee, asked him II he thought 1t Joking mat
ter to be publishing people as thieves and
liars and IL somebody We're to publish him as
thief and liar would he consider II in the
Light of a joke? To this he replied that he
supposed he WOULD Wash. Cor. Alerdhdrid
Gazette.
As WE do not know whether the author
ofthe above is thiefo or not we will assume,
however, that he is not. But fhe will take
the trouble to procure copy of the official
report of the testimony when printed he
will be convinced that he is liar. Taking
out the merely Introductory portion of the
above there are just ten lines left relating
TO the actual subject matter And COM
parison with the stcnographic report will
show that these ten lines contain at least
three lies. A man who camille at the rate
of one faisehood to every three aud one
thirdslines ought not to be permitted to
waste his genius on the Alexandria Gazette.
He would be an ornament to the staff OF
the New York Times.

THE Whisky Ringsters doubtless begin
to see that their attempt to forestall criti
cism of their job by wholesale slander of
the Washington correspondents was not
altogether happy conception. We are
not noted for our high opinion of American
journalism in general or of its Washington
representatives in particular. But faulty
as they may be, the Washington correspond
ents have still vast advantage over the
agents and attorneys Of the Whisky Ring,
in the fact that they are, as a rule, possessed
Of brains.
When one compares the magnitude of the
job the Whisky Ring sought to perpetrate,
with the capacity of the men 5hey sent here
to manage it, the effect is amazing. 1t is
like sending a span of Kentucky mules to
tow the Great Eastern through the Erie
Canal

THE proposition to Congress to purchase
the Moore Mansion at Yorktown, and
maintain it as a monument of the final
scene in the War for American Independ-
ence, is one which seems to US beyond de-
bate. Under its quaint old roof, and with
in its ancient walls that stand without the
slightest alteration from then till now, the
English conferees signed the capitulation
that made the United States free nation.
Subsequent diplomacy was but form and
ceremony. That scene in the Moore Man
sion was the real denouement of drama
whose effects upon the destinies of man
kind have but just begun. If there is ever
to be such thing as national spirit or
pride of country among us it must be
fostered by invoking the associations that
cluster about such spot. Mount Vernon
is but the first of what ought to be many
shrines whereunto the patriotism of all
times may make pleasant pilgrimage.
There is no reason why the Moore Man
sion at Yorktown should not share with
Mount Vernon the affectionate interest
and grateful memory of this people. Let
it be taken by the Government and en-
balmed in memory of the deeds that made
such Government possible.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The Secretary of
War has received Geographic message from
the Louisiana commissioner, at New Orleans,
state that the flood has moved southwark with
such fearful rapidity that the sugar country IS
threatened with as much destruction as has af-
fiicted the northern portion of the State and
that calls for relief come to them much more
quickly than they expected; also that they
must in consequence apply for the 40s,OOO ra-
tions which were intended to be given in in
stalments to be given in full on the 9th inst.
80 that they can be forwarded to suit the lines
of transportstions. They also state that they
may be compelled to ask for still further aid,
although the water is slowly receding ia the
northern part of the State The Secretary has
directed that the request ne granted.
MORGAN CITY, La, April 5.-The water
has risen two and one-half inches in the past
"a hours and is now over the steamboat wharf.
No land is in sight except the old war fortlh-
cations upon which few catCle left have tax

IMPRISONED AMERICANS.
The Course Adopted by President
Arthur.
THEIR PROMPT TRIAL DEMANDED OF
THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The President sent
to the Senate today the report of the Secretary
of State relating to American citizens lmpris-
oned in Ireland. From the documents submit
ted with the report it appears the Secretary OF
State instructed Lowell as follows on the I'd OF
June last:
whatever necessity there may be in the es-
timation of Her Majesty for the existence and
enforcement in Ireland of the exceptional leg
islative measures recently enacted III respect TO
that country, the government cannot view
with unconcern the application OF summary
proceedings attendant upon the execution OF
these measures to naturaliZed citizens OF the
United States of Irish origin, who revisit their
native country If American citizens Whlie
within British jurisdiction offend against Brit
ish laws, this government will not seek to
shield them from the legal consequences OF
their acts, but it must insist upon the appilca-
ton to their cases of those common principles
of criminal jurisprudence which in the United
States secure to every man who ofends against
its laws, whether he be nEAmerican citizen OF
foreign subject, those incidents to criminal
prosecution which afford the best safeguard to
personal liberty and stringent securities against
oppression"
State instructed Mr.. Lowe / to use all diligence
in regard to the late cases, especially OF Hart
and McSweeney. On the 4th OF the same
month Mr.. Lowell was instructed to Inform
the British government that the President
the coercion act to citizens of the United States
the Lord Lieutenant would be instructed to
exercise discriminary powers vested in him
by the first section as far as to order speedy
trials of all imprisoned American citizens:
On the 10th of the same month Mr.. Lowell
was again instructed to call attention to this
subject and to say that the President did not
wish to appear unreasonable but would be re-
lieved II he could inform Congress that his re-
quest for the speedy trial of Americans had
L. al Ont bo of
Lowell was again instructed to say that the
President hoped Her Majesty's government
would see its way to an early and favorable
answer to his request. In further response to
the resolution of the Senate the Secretary OF
State says the negotiations which are still going
on have 80 far reached conclusion that but
three persons remain in prison and there is
good reasons to believe that results will be
reached satisfactory to both governments.
Several kilograms passed between London
and Washington during the recent pending
negotiations which it is not thought compatible
with public interest to declare at present.

The Lombard Will Case.
BOSTON, April Sat the probate court to-
day in Dedham settlement was effected in
she suit of Lizzie III. Perkins of Maine who
presented certified copy of the will of Charles
A. Lombard of New York for approval. The
object of the petitioner was to recover about
100000 from the Lombard estate located in
this State, which sum she claims was due her
from deceased and that by power of admins
tratrix she could atsach and sell the property.
The widow of Lombard is the wife of Manton
Marble and she objected to the approval of the
will on the ground that the estate was not IL
debted to Perkins. The claim was compro-
missed on private terms.
LATER.
The Lombard will case has been settled by
agreement. On account of the large sum in
volved in the dispute the case has excited con-
siderable interest in Norfolk county. 1t is
agreed that the petition of Lizzie Fl. Perkins,
praying for letters of administration upon the
estete be dismissed without costs to either
party.
