THE MAN WHO STRUCK BILL* FA'ITEKSON.

And Other Slattorg Picked Up At the Tombs.

FmmjtheNew York Sun by Telegraph. "On my way dovfu this naording not only gave my neat in the street car to a poor woman, but I handed her a quarter.and made her despaering heart glad. NOTV, what did you do, Mister McMaiius?"

His honor carefully rubbed his spec tacl'es on bis elbow, as he regarded his friend with an expectant look. "On my way doivn this morning," said Mr, McManus, after a moment of deep thought, "I met a poor man." "Yes." "His locks were gray, hU back bent, Mid his feeble limbs could hardly gupport his tottering form." "Yes." "He asked me for a dollar," continued Mister McManus, in a husky voice, "and "And, bless you! you gave it to him!" interrupted his Honor. "No, Ididrf'f I "You gave him five?" "1 didn't your Honor. I gave him your address, and he's coming around to borrow three dollars of you!" "This world," mused the Court, as he reached for the complaints, "this •world is a strange world. We no sooner commence to love a man for his goodness than, cow-like, he upsets the milk-pail, and we find that he was only waiting.to get a good chance to Kick."

He looked at Mister McManus with a severe expr-HHin. dug into his hollow tooth with the ei.d of a match and calmlv eyed the first prisoner let out of the fold. 3IE FEIILJ A FALL,

WORTH HIS MILLIONS.

John Bateson'had a careworn look as I he stood at the railing and waited for [the ball to open.

Sadness.sat upon his brow, And in his eye a tear 4 Quite ready he to vow avow

That misfortune brought him here. "Drunk!" remarked his Honor, as he llaid down the match. "If you had suffered as I have, sir," Ireplied the prisouer, "you wonid say to Ime, -Poor man, go home!' Yes, you roulji.". "Got a corn?" asked the Court* 'Corn! Com, sir! Great heavens, sir! 3an you compare the throbs of my leart to a corn? It is here, sir—in my leart, sir— where my suffering is!" "Do you doctor for it—take cod liver silor pills?" "Pills! My God! I look as if I leeded pills? It is my feelings, sir— lental agony! Ten years ago I was forth my milltons Where am I low?" "In the Tombs Court.1' "Ah, sir, its enougn 10 crush man of ly higbt mental caliofe," sighed the brisoner. "Once I was a lord—now I imaa 6ailor!" "Has the change affected your weight

Iny?" "My weight! Can you' trifle with ie sir?" 'I could, but I won't" replied His lonor. "You were drunk. ugly» noisy Ind mean, and Mr. MOM&DUS will [lease hang a sign of 'To let for sixty lays' on your back."

Mr. McManus, without further oerelony, gathered him by the collar. And the prisoner went OUT.

[They said I was drank, when it was ly weakness oa aocount of star vail" he whined, as he faced the .okboard. fMr. McBride, are you hungry?" led His Honor. |I am that! I believe I could eat ace pie or sweet cake or chicken like jrolf!" |Have you had anything to eat late

nt so much as a loaf of bread—for jne see—for—for—well, it's hard on aree weeks, Your Honor!" John D. K. McBride, do you mean ell me that you havn't had a square ^1 for three weeks?" for around meai either, Your Hon*

"What did you eat last, aod when?" "I ate some water, sir, and it was a week ago!" "Prisoner, how can you be so? Didn't you ever read that beautiful passage in Shakespeare which says:—

There was a man in our town— He was an awful liar He jumped into a bramble bush.

And scratched ont—

And scratched out—less see—and scrathced ont" "No, sir, I never read it," interrupted Patrick, "Well, they'ell look it up for you over at the island," continued the Court. "You are what might be termed a heavy imposter and a fat liar, and I send you over for thirty days." "Send a starving man to the island?" "Yes, sir." "Send a maft to prison because he falls down from starvation?" "Yes, sir." "I thought you.would." continued the prisoner, in a cbangfd voice, and be followed Mister McManus around to the door on whose panels was long ago painted the words: "He sends you up—

I lets you down I swing for allLord, duke or clown."

"Why is it?" asked His Honor, removing his spectacles and looking around the ropm, "why is it that people will tell such broad, flat-footed lalsehoods, when the truth will answer bet ter?"

NAN NUBSE.

"Nancy Scottwood, havn't I seen you before?" asked the Court of a dumpy little female. "Before who?" she cautiously inquired. "Before me." •'You may have met me in the car, your Honor, or seen me in the Park with the children, though I never take notice of strangers." "I'll bet an old bat to a cent that I havesentyou to thelsland," said His Honor. •JConey Island?", she asbed.

He leaned back and surveyed her cucumber form and her ham-fat face, and finally asked.— "Nancy, what do you do?'J "I nurses, sir and if I do say it myself I can do better nursing than any other woman in New York." "Are you a damp nurse, Nancy—a moist nurse—a—a '•No. Your Honor—don't speak to me after that fashion. I takes care of children, Your Honor." "When the little darlings wake up at midnight and develop an A 1 case ol colic, you are on the ppot are you?" 1 am, sir, and on my, feet, too, sir and I eases them right away," "Well, Nancy, how did it happen that you got so drunk that you couldn't even sit still on a doorstep, but fell to the waikand marred the classic beauty of your little nose?" "I wasn't drunk God forbid that Nancy Scottwood should taste soda wa*ter! It was sleepiness, Your Honor. I'd been up fourteen nights with a dying child,and was clean gone." "What is that smell I smell?" ex claimed the court, sniffing right and left

Was it the smell of a budding rose?, Or the scent of the sweet woodbine. Was it the odor of ham and eggs,

Or the smell of giu or wine? "It may be the smell of somebody's feet, your Honor," replied Nancy. "Come nearer, woman bend over this way, thou nurseress," said the Court.

She bent. He sniffled. 'Twas enough. "Nancy Scottwood, Ismell whisky?" exclaimed His Honor.^ "And now that oome to regard you with a critic's eye, I observe that goneness, that geneeral air of hard times in 1857 which characterizes every observer or observeness of tanglefoot. I am Just as certain that you were drunk last night as I am that there are 251,347 stove-pipe holes in this Tombs building." "What did they want of so many?" she inquired, as she looked around with an innocent air. "It will be some time, Nancy, before you can bend over the couch of a dying child. Every tick of that clock up there ticks you a tick nearer the island. Why couldn't you have told me the truth at the start? How much nobler—how much more like a .Roman mother it would have been for you to have wiped your injured nose, folded your arms, looked me in the eye, and said, 'I was drunk. I admit it but I have resolved a resolve never to drink another drop of New York whisky as long as I live.' Such a course as that would have soft* ened my heart, "Is it too late now?', she asked. "It is! it is! The golden moment has fled."

Loudly shouts the voice of fate, You've missed the markToo late! Too late! •But I'm innocent, Your Honor." "So am I and Mr. McManus will now offer you his arm for a short promenade. Look out for your Grecian bend •8 you go down stairs."

When the boys went out and the meeting was called to order. Billy Short onered the following:—

Whereas, we are boys: and Whereas, we want to be good and Whereas, it is mighty hard work for a boy to be good these days now therefore,

Resolved, That we invite Mister McManus to address this society every Wednesday eveuing on some subject calculated to raise our moral standing and at the same time cheapen the price peanuts.

And there was only one dissenting Voice when a vote was taken. Little "Boss" Brown, a scene shifter at the Grand Duke Theatre, voted "No" and explained:— "I belong to the Peanut Ring, aud I

MOB tAW.

A Knrtferer Hangtd In Virginia. Cincinnati, Jan. 23.—A Gazette special says: Edward Williams, who, wiih Mrs. MeeliDg, was arrested for the murder of the latter's husband, was taken from jail last night, at Barbours? ville, Wee,t Virginia, and hanged by a mob. The parties were assured by a minister that sufficient evidence of their gnilt had been obtained and that the {ail was surrounded by a mob of excited people, but both denied any complicity in the act, although the minister continued praying with them and asking a confession.

Tbe mob finally forced the keys from the jailor, took Williams out and placed bim under a tree in the court house yard, where, with a rope around his neck, standipg on a barrel, be made a confession, expressing the hope that the crowd might obtain God's forgiveness for their crime, as be had for bis, and declared that he was happily started on bis journey home to heaven. He died after fitteen minutes of terrible agony.

Mrs. Meeling, was then brought out, and placing her in front of tbe dead marderer the crowd called for her confession. She said Williams bad been her paramour for three years that she had beed trying for the past three months to poison her husband, without success that Williams struck Meeting on tbe bead with an axe while be was asleep,Wednesday night,cutting his throat aiterwards. She assisted in destroying evidences of the murder and in burying Meeling. She accused herself of being the cause of the murder, but begged pitifully for her life. Though the feeling was very strong against her, and the crowd voted nnauimously for her execution, no man could be iound who would put a rope arpund the woman's neck, and she was returned to the jail.

William's body was left hanging till cut down by the authorities this morn-

Fatal.Bailway Disaster. Cincinnati, Jan. 22.—About half past twelve o'clock this afternoon, a Marietta A Cin., freight train was crossing tbe iron bridge over Spring Grove avenue, this city, when tbe bridge gave way. Five cars overloaded with shelled corn is said to have caused the wreck. The falling oars pulled the enne down with them, killing Contry, ie engineer, Frank Lemmon, the fireman, and a brakesman. Two men who were driving along the avenne at tbe time, were caught in tbe wreck one saffering a broken leg, the other a broken shoulder. The bridge .was a double track one, and is a total wreck.

BOWBS'B BASES ESS. .1

New York, Jan. 25.—-The Clerk of Plymouth Church has furnished Henry C. Bowen with a written copy of S. V. White's statement of grievances against him. Mr. White says he intended to allow Bowen reasonable time to reply. If he should continue silent or refase" to tell what he knew damaging to Beecher, or admit that be knew no thipg against bis pastor whatever, tben he (White) would appeal to thecharcb and ascertain whether or not, it woalc not consider it necessary, both to its peace and purity, that all its members, including Henry C.

From the New YorJr Sun.

In Mr. Beecher's sermon yesterday morning, he frequently worked himself up to the pitch of weeping. He said that faith in a man consists in perceiving something that we trust, that we like. The people had confidence in Grant in the aark hours of the struggle for the preservation of the Union, :.s a general who would stick, but their trust in him as a so! dier did not extend to bis qualities ab a politician. "I would trust my watch," he said, "to a skilful horologist, but not my books, flowers, or horses. lu a friend when we know him, or think we do, [suppressed laughter at this fling at Mouiton] we believe in bis disinterestedness, in bis honor, in his fidelity, in his trutb, in his 'disinterested affection. We lie down in his heart as a child lies down in in its mother's arms. We areasbam ed to have a doubt riso in our miud that is treacherous to our friend. We give ourselves truly up to our friendship. The mar that is worthy of a friend and has a heroic conception of friendship, is a traitor to himself and to bis kind if he permits doubt to blur or blot the sense of trust, The way of the body is not the way of the mind, the way of the rnipd is not the way of the heart, and the way of the heart and Lhe mind is not the way of the soul. "They tell me that I have fallen that I am a fallen creuture. I never was better than I am. The only fall that I ever had was from my mother's womb. Tben there was not an inch between me and the brute. The calf that is dropped in a moonlight pasture on a summer night knows more than I did, for he knows enough teget on his feet almost immediately, and turns at once to the maternal udders. I, a babe, knew no more than the blanket thit enwrapped me. They tell me that I fell. I fell up. [Applause.] "Every motherland every man, if he will toss aside the mist of specu lation, knows that we come in at the minimum, and go up to righteouness step by step. We are born zeros, and life puts one before the zero and makes us ten, and puts two before it and makes us twenty, and so on. ggf

A BIG SWINDLES.

-(too He Is Unearthed in Bosto* But Takes Htf Flight—H Forged N otes.

Bosten. Jan 25.—The afternoon papers will publish tbe disclosures affecting E. D. Winslow, a well known journalist and politician, and ^nown as one of the principal owners of the Daily News and Boston Post, though it is not belie vied that either of these papers is effected by his transactions, which are no'#' coming to lightv Notes amounting to $7,000, negotiated in one of the national banks by Winslow, are known to bear forged endorsements, and it. is dlleged that when tbe amount of his forged papers is fully ascertained, by investigation, it will reach over $100.000, Winslow left last Thursday, accompanied by his family, for parts unknown.

Boston, Jan 25.—The details of tbe alleged forgeries by E. D. Winslow, as published by the Journal, represent that it is estimated that tbe total snm of discounted paper issued by bim must be in excess of $200,000, but whether the endorsements are genuine or not cannot yet be determined. It is stated that Winslow. sold bis interest in tbe News last week. Winslow was educated for the ministry of the Methodist church and served as chaplain in two regiments during the war. He was al«o chaplain tbe nauy, and has since officiated in several churches'. He was formeely publisher oi Zion's Herald, and was a member of tbe Legislature in 1872,1873 and 1875. It is stated that before his disappearance he made several efforts to negotiate paper, but tbe endorsements were detected as forgeries and was threatened with exposure.

Boston, Jan. 56.—It is positively stated that E. D. Winslow, issued large quantities of fictitious stock of the Boston Post & Co. as collateral. A meeting of stockholders will be held Friday to investigate affairs. The paper will probably lose nothing, the sufferers being those who advanced inoney on the stock. Some of Winslow's operations are traced to L. W. Pond, of Worcester, and a paper with the names of both parties on it has been brought to light. E. F. Thorters name is Baid to be ou one hundred and fifty thousand dollats worth of paper, and that of Daniel Chamberlain on for $60,000 worth. ROPPKIETORS OF THE BOSTON NEWS

ATTACHED.

Boston, Jan. 26.—At the instance of N. G. Green, one of the former proprietors of the Post, a writ of attachment was served this morning on E. F. Porter, ostensible owner of the Daily News. The writ is based on Winslow's transactions.

THE BABCOCK CA8E.r''V7'#'

Wbnt Was a tttmptcd by the Court Martial Cnlled by toe Accused—Interesting Correspondence Between the Military and Civil Authorities. Washington Special to New York Herald,

January 24.

Some interesting facts have become known bere in regard to the trial of Gen. Babcock.

When the military court had been ordered Attorney General Pierrepont telegraphed District Attorney Dyer, directing him to furnish this military court all tbe evidence in Babcock's case. As may be supposed, this created a storm among the counsel and about the court. Mr. Dyer tele* graphed Judge Pierrepont in about these words:

It is expected by the Attorney General that evidence procured by the process of the District and Circuit Courts of the United States at this place shall be taken to Chicago, out of tbe jurisdiction Of this court, and delivered into the hands of a military court in a time ot profound peace, aud especially when we are in daily use of the evidence before the grand ury and in the trial of cases before Aie courts? I beg leave to say that the court will not tolerate such a proceeding, and I could not personally take the responsibility without incurring its contempt.

This dispatch remained unanswered a day or two, when MrJMerrepont telegraphed Mr. Dyer to please furnish the Military Court copies of such evidence as be could conveniently spare. Meantime Major Gardiner, the Judge Advocate of the Babcock Military Court, had been notified that the District Attorney at St. Louis had been instructed to furnish bim with the evidence in its possessionr The spirit in which he began his work is shown by the

You will transmit to me immediately oopies of all charges made by J. B. Henderson against Gen. Q. S. Babcock^

To thU arrgant dispatch Mr. Dyes replied nearly in these words: I am not aware that Mr. Henderson has-^yet jnadeany charges against Geo. -Babcock, anl upo:i ojnmlt&ti'ia

be assures me that be never has. The only thing eaid by Mr. Henderson conserning Gen, Babcook wall ap* pear in the evidence, and the argument before the jury in the trial oi W. O. Avery. Shale I order the stenographer to senad you conies thereof?

You will transmit to me immediately oopies of all charges made by J. B. Henderson against Gen. O. E. Babeoek.

To this arrogant dispatch Mr. Dyer replied nearly in these words: I am not aware that Mr. Hend son has ever made any charges against Gen. Babcotk, and upon consultation be assures me that he never has. The only thing said by Mr. Henderson concerning General Babcock will appear in the evidence, and the argument before the jury in tbe trial of W. O. Avery. 8hjril order the stenographer to send you copies thereof?

Upon the receipt of tim the Judge Advocate came down from his high horse, and telegraphed to this, effect:

The District Attorney will please cause the stenographer to prepare, and transmit to me, a copy of Mr. Henderson's speech in the Avery tri al.

The indictment of Gene al Babcock made the dissolution of the mil itary court necessary, and Major Gardiner was deprived of further opportunity of indicating the spirit in which it was ordered by any further telegraphic correspondence of the above character.

PIMPLES, ERUPTION, ltOUUH SKIN. The system being put under the influence of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for a few weeks, the skin becomes smooth, clear, soft and velvety, and being illuminated with the glow of perfect health from within, true beauty stands forth in all its glory. The effects of all medicines which operate upon the system through the medium of the blood, are necessarily somewhat slow, no matter how good tbe remedy employed. While one to three bottles clear the skin of pimples, blotches, eruptions, yellow spots, comedones, or "grubs," a dozen may possibly be required to cure, some cases where the system is rotten with scrofulous of virulent blood poisons/ The cure of all these diseases, hov over, from the common pimple to the worst scrofula, is, with the use of this most potent agent, only a matter of time.

An Investigation That Promises to tcllpse the Credit Moblller Senndlc.

From the New York Sun.

Washington, Jan. 24.—Jt appeared to be the purpose of the Republican side of the House to-day not to oppose the Democrats in asking for special investigations, but they hardly understood the character of the resolution offered by Mr. Holman at the close of the session, which was as follows:

Whereas, It is alleged that improper and fraudulent means were resorted to influence legislation in tbe passage of the act of Cougress enti' tied "An act to incorporate the Texas Pacific Bailroad Company, and to aid in the construction of its road and for other purposes," approved March 3,1871, by persons interested in the passage of said act, and that contracts ana combination were subsequently entered into by said corns pany in violation of the terms of said act therefore.

Resolved, That the Committee on Judiciary be instructed to inquire into said allegations and report to the House whether Improper and fraudulent means were so resorted to in securing passage of said act, or whether the said company has, by its contracts orconsolidations with other companies, done any act which would justify a forfeiture of the franchises granted by said act, and to this end said committee may send for persons and papers. The revelatious which this examination will make, it is.said, will exceed the Credit Mobilfer scandal. Gen. Fremont, it is alleged, for reasons not yet given,- ie ready to ma^e a clean breast of his connectiou with thiS Memphis and El Paso Railroad, which is embraced in the scope of Mr. Holman's resolution.
