claim Our authority is good, and there
is no doubt but that what Mr.. Oakley
said about the transaction is the truth.
The day before the interview with the
Attorney-General, Mr. Oakley told an
intimate friend that he was going to get
his money the next day. The day
after the interview the same intimate
friend met Mr.. Oakley and asked him
if he had got his money. Mr.. Oakley
replied; mo, that mean man, Neu-
mann, wanted me to give him $500
before he would get it for me"
'What did he (Neumann) want the
$500 for himself~ asked Mr.. Oakley's
friend. eyes," replied poor Mr..
Oakley" "he wanted it himself, and |
refused to take anything" Mr. Oak
ley further stated that he would appeal
to some official connected with the
English Government to get his rights,
if Neumann did not settle justly and
honestly with him.
Now, there is lie out somewhere,
and Mr.. Oakley's version of the affair
can be proven. The officials were in
great hurry to get "poor Mr.. Oak
ley buried, but the Government party
will not find it such an easy matter to
bury 'poor Mr. Oakley's" cause and
the facts upon which it undoubtedly
rests. For our part, we prefer at pre-
sent to believe the word of the dead
man.

A DEAD MANS WORD.

Since the death Of Mr.. Edwin Oak
ley many things have been said and
some have been written about the
money owed him, the Withholding Of
which, it is alleged, with apparent rea-
son, was the immediate cause Of his
suicide. For instance, the following
letter of the Attorney-General, pub
lished in the Bulletin of the I4th inst,
virtually admits that there was an open
account between the Government and
Mr.. Oakley, and that the Attorney
General proposed to strike off about

LETTER FROM THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Editor Bullefi,1-D Deay Sir: In a letter Of
Mr.. J. o. Carter, published ir yesterdays
BHEtftn, that gentleman aludes to Mr.. Oak
ley's sad ending, connecting the same with a
debt due him from the Government. Mr..
Garter is mistaken about the matter, and
would certainly not have made the statement
had he known the facts in the case. About a
year ago or longer Mr.. Oakley's~bi bill was re-
ferred to me, and after examination, certain
sum about one hundred and eighteen dollars
stricken off by me, as an improper charge.
The amount of the bill, as allowed, was ten
dered to Mr.. Oakley, and would have been paid
then had he chosen to accept it, Since his
refusal TO rectify the bill, the amount has at
all times lain ready to be paid to him or TO his
order, he having transferred the claim to GER
tain of his creditors, who were quite willing to
accept the adjusted BILL For reasons not
necessary to be detailed, declined to accept
the receipt of any one but Mr.. Oakley person.

A PHANTOM,

A phantom there is which men call Death,
And he follows whereer we go;
Like the north winds blast is his icy
breath,
And his eyes have a snake-like glow,
And he follows hard, and he follows close
Be our footsteps fast or slow.
He sits by the king in his chair of state
And he walks by the plowman's side,
For alike to him is the low or great
Mean birth or vaunted pride;
impartial to all he follows all
With never firing Stride
In the gladness of peace, or in scenes Of
strife,
In the hush of the calm, or storm,
In the deep, still night, or when dangers
rife.
At evening, noon or morn
he walks, he stands and he lies by onr side,
This terrible phantom form.
he sits at our board, and sits at oar hearth,
As self-invited guest,
And often when loudest the strains Of
mirth,
Or keenest the wit and jest
His shadow silently falls upon
That which the heart loves best.
He skaters at will mans best laid schemes
With a touch of his specter hand,
And he dashes to earth the brightest
dreams
With a wave of his unseen wand
And strive as we will we must obey
Whenever he gives command.
Wherever thing of life has been
On the land, or in sea, or air,
Where virtue dwells, or in haunts Of sir
His shadow has fallen there
Leading back the soul in peace to God,
Or quilting it in despair.
Oh, grim, grim thing is this phantom
Death,
And he follows where'er we CO.
Like the north winds blast is his icy
breath
And his eyes have a snake-like glow,
And he follows hard, AMI he follows close,
Be our footsteps fast or slow.
