Mrs. BARRows, wife of Deacon Barrows, of
Middlebury, Vt, is very pious woman, and
nothing stirs her righteous wrath like the sound
Of a bad word Profanity she cannot and will
not abide; and when an orphan girl brought into
her family was found to be addicted to sinful
language, Mrs. Barrows anger was great. The
orphan said sconfound it," and darn it, and,
though rebuked, would not desist when provoca-
ton arose. The orphan was nineteen years old,
and able bodied, but SO great was the strength
given to Mrs. Barrows, when forbearance ceased
to be virtue, that she was enabled to knock the
girl down and ''tromp on her" The sinful or
phan was however, only reduced to temporary
subsection, and soon betook herself with her
bruises to magistrate Suit was brought
against Mrs Barrows, and she has been fined 500
and costs. Thus the cause of the wicked, in the
hands of worldly justice of the peace, seems
to triumph; but there is no telling yet to what
bad end that depraved orphan will come. Mrs
Barrows may be depended upon to watch and

In referring to the death of Mrs. Swisshelm
many writers make the mistake of considering
her as an advocate Of equal suffrage. This she
was moi, and she had little sympathy with the
methods followed by the ardent believers in the
cause. Her views the subject were briefly
expressed in an interview of recent date and are
as follows:
IF my word would enfranchise women to-
morrow would not give it, because they are
not fit to vote. / think both men and women
should be graded into classes, and only be per
gence which is considered the standard of quail
fcation."

GALvEsroN, July l-At noon to-day,
Col. John F.Elliott, Chief Commissioner
of Texas, addressed meeting of the
Cotton Exchange on the Importance of
the state having full and complete
exhibit of its products at the Worlds
Exposition, and the effect that such n
display would have in inducing emf
grafton TO seek location and capital in
vestment in the State. Hc said that
thiTty-scven States. twelve terri
tories and fourteen foreign nations
had applied for representation at the
Exposition; that il Texas made q proper
effort her display of products would ont
rival those Of any State in the Union:
that he had organized fourteen County
Exposition societies; that numerous
others were in an active state of forna-
ton; thirteen ladies Exposition socie-
ties were organized and actively
at work, with others forming; that
oil railway lines had promised
assistance and that work throughout the
state was making favorable progress,
but he found the $4,000 appropriated by
the state inadequate to carry the work
through successfully, and he applied to
the citizens of Galveston to subscribe
funds sufficient to erect an auxiliary
building and present it 10 the State, to be
dovotedto special exhibits and used as
Texan headquarters; and described how
such an act would be regarded by the
people of Texas.
AT the conclusion of Col. Elliott's elo-
quent address u motion was made and
adopted that the Chair appoint a com
mittee of ten to solicit subscriptions for
such a building.
Upon the adoption of u vote of thanks
meeting adjourned. Mayor Fulton, who
presided, will at once appoint commit
tee of leading citizens, who will make
an effort to raise 5000 for the erection
Of building for the purpose indicated
by Col. Elliott.
Col. Elliott will remain i'm the city
until after the 4th, and will deliver tho
Fourth of July oration Mt the Washing

HE TELLS HIS TALE,


WASHINGTON, July l.-Ex-Senator
Kellogg, at his own request, appeared be-
fore the Springer committee to-day to
make a statement relating to his con
nection with the Starroutes. He said:
"a number of witnesses before this com
mittee have been dwelling on my in
dictment as an oflense involving bribery.
There is no charge that paid Brady
any money whatever; i utterly deny
telling Walsh to put one-half of GER
tain amount to my credit and one-half
to Brady; reference had been made
to my having secured an increase
on two routes; if Brady was called and
should swear to the truth as | believe
he would, | believe he would swear |
never approached him directly or indi-
rectly as regards these expeditions; no
where does Price state that | said |
would go to Brady ana procure addi-
tional service, or that it would be pro-
cured by my service; will give the
name of four or five gentlemen
whom Price has said had
nothing to do with securing service"
Kellogg referred to the alleged payment
to him by Walsh of one-half the price of
tne uraitS ana note, amounting to $780,
900. He said Walsh had importuned
him to aid in prosecuting his claim
against Brady, but he had not rendered
aid. He said, further, he did not
receive money from drafts or note,
as charged by Walsh; he testified
he had borrowed $4,000 from him in New
Orleans in 1877, the money he received
from Walsh grew out of this business
transaction and was in no way connect
ed with Star route service or political
matters.
Kellogg showed by documentary evil
dencc, and by ailidavits, that he did not
tender service. He offered the commit
tee copies of all letters written by him
to Walsh, and offered 70 explain them
fully; also, all checks and business
transactions. lie had large number
of allidavits from Gileront parties show
ing the existing indeht ness by Walsh
TO him, and certificates from banks
showing how and for what purpose paw
ments by Walsh were made.
