HE IRONED JEFF DAVIS.
Maine Soldiers Stories of the Leader of
the Confederacy.

Bangor, February 5.-The Whig, TO-
morrow, will publish an account by
Joseph W. Grant of this city, printed for
the first time, of events connected with
the capture and captivity of Jefferson
Davis. For some reason the account has
never been generally known. Grant was
a second lieutenant and in command of
Company A, 14th Maine regiment, in the
spring of 1865. Among the forces sent
to Savannah to reinforce Sherman on the
march to the sea was Grants company.
The command was afterward ordered to
Augusta, Ca, and there given charge OF
Jefferson Davis and other noted rebel
prisoners. A handful of brave Maine
soldiers kept back a mob and safely con-
veyed the prisoners to tie steamer at
great risk, Grants men being only forty
i've in number. Grant says Davis was
surly prisoner on the voyage to Fort
pess Monroe. Once he overpowered the
guard and went on deck after dark.
Grant, after calm statement of his or
ders, was obliged to drag Davis bodily
back to his stateroom. At Fortress
Monroe Davis was placed in a cell and
refused bread and water, and Grant was
ordered to place. shim in irons, which he
did after struggle. Davis Throughout
was surly. The parting between him
and the other military prisoners was
affecting as it was expected that Davis
would be hanged. Mrs. Davis offered
husband and bring an answer, hut
Grant declined. Grants story gives in
teresting facts of events of that exciting

ternoon to celebrating the disappearance

ages, the toll bridges. Calais and st.
Stephen combined and purchased one of
the principal toll bridges connecting the
two cities. This was thrown open to
free use today at l p. m. Cannons

hundreds of teams, decorated and un-
decorated, gathered in Post Office square

bands, the city government, the fire de-
partment, and the school children, drove
to St. Stephen and joined a similar pro-
cession formed there. They then parad-
ed the principal streets to City Hall,
where speeches were made by prominent
citizens Bonfres and fireworks closed
the festivities this evening. 1t is ex-

FOR Bl-METALLISM.
Boston Citizens Organize in Fauor of Ex-
tending the Ideas of the Latin Union.

Boston, February 5.-At meeting of
Boston citizens today 1t was decided to
announce the selection of committee
for the purpose of promoting the estab-
fishing of international bimetallism up
on the general plan of the Latin Union,
but with broader basis. Those con-
cerned in the movement, while earnestly
opposed to the free coinage of silver or
any increased use of silver by this
country, independent of international
actionsand agreement, believe that the
repeal of the purchase clause OF the Sher-
man act affords fitting and fortunate
opportunity for advancing the cause of
international bimetallism. They believe
the day is not far distant when the
necessities of commerce will compel the
international use of silver as WE'LL as of
gold in currencies throughout the world.
This committee was selected on account
of it's representative character. It's men,
bership comprises the hest intellectual
and business elements OF Boston, and in
fact, of New England. The committee
proposes to further the cause of inter-
national bimetallism by means of
lectures, pamphlets, public addres sses,
discussions, etc. The chairman of the
committee is President Andrews of
Brown University, who was a delegate

DON'T WANT HEARINGS.
Democratic Senators Prefer Secrecy Re-
garding the Tariff Bill.

Washington, February 5.-A resolution
introduced in the Senate today by
Mr.. Hale, directing the committee on
finance to have hearings on the tariff
bill. Indicates feeling on the part
of the Republicans that perhaps such
hearings will be denied. 1t was stated
today that the committee would report
bill to the Senate inside often days. The
guarded language used by the Demo-
cratic mem bers of the finance commit
tee does not lead to the conclusion that
hearings are considered by Democratic
mem bers with favor.

TWICE TOLD TALE.
But 1t Is True and Backed Up Senator
Frye's Argument.

Washington, February Sin the course
of the debate on the elsction law in the
Senate today, Mr.. Frye, Republican of
Maine, said that if the states could be
depended upon to do what was just and
fair, they ought to be allowed to admin
lister the election laws. If the states
could not be depended upon, federal
election laws should be retained. He
related as "a twice told tale, !"
the Tammany naturalization frauds in
New York in 1868, when mob of over
40, 900 foreigners was naturalized within
twenty days, when Judge Barnard
naturalized over 1000 in single day,
when eight witnesses stood for 2. 200 men,
and when certificates were signed in
blank and sold for a dollar apiece.
Over 10000 men were registered in the
city of New York from vacant lots and
some men repeated" their votes on
election day from seven to twenty-five
times. BY that sort of business the state
OF New York was carried for Horatio
Seymour, the Democratic Presidential
candidate, against General Grant. The
people of the United States were
thoroughly aroused when the report came
dS d ICSulU VI q COnSlOoolOAoA ldNSooi9o-
tion and the national election law was
enacted. Did the Senator from Illinois
not believe, Mr.. Frye asked, that it was
the duty of the United States to take
cognizance of that awful and monumental
crime against the ballot in the great
Empire State? He paused for reply.
Mr.. Palmer-"That instance by no
means justified the law. The fact that
there was crime in New York furnished
no reason for subjecting every other con-
gressional district i'll the country to a
suspicion of fraud and putting supervisors
over them.n
II am surprised said Mr.. Frye, "that
the Senator is not so good as l thought
he was. / think he is no better than
the average Democrat. Laughter.) /
think he is frequently even worse.
suppose the distinguished Senator would
say promptly that the United States
would have been derelict in it's duty if
it did not see what should be done to pro-
tect this grand republic for which the
Senator himself fought and bled. But
no, he says the United States is not
Justified in paying any attention to these
horrible wrongs against American citi-
zenship."
