She is quite economical, and ken by the Committee.

The many friends and admirers nf Mr. James E. Murdoch will read with pleasure the following incident related of him by the Philadelphia Bulletin. It speaks well of his character, and ia jus: what his ft tends would expect to hear of him; Mr. James E.

Murdoch gave one his popular entertainments of declamation at Metxerotl Hall, in Washington on tho evening of February 5lh, at whii.li Mr and Mrs. Colfax were present. Just before the enteruiument commeno-en, Mr. Colfax left his seat, and meet ing Mr. Murdoch in tho aute-room, accompanied him upon the stage, whore ho presented bim to the audience in s.

brief speech, which was' marked by ell tnsertioa in our oolumns, but we have catefully read it, and it fully vindicates the conduct of the Direc tor Messrs Ghse and Meredith, an I fails, in oar opinion, to snstaia the report of the Committee. The prior to her departure for Europe, and comes to us with high endorsements Wendell Phillips, Gerrit Smith, Fred. Douglas, Thomas Garrett, and many others. if appearances do not mislead, she has no more funds than are necessary to L. Ahntlt her to ta stand, and directed her step, otherwise, they would no doubt have been taken.

Mr. Garrett had been accustomed to furnish her and her companions with new shoes, and on one occasion when he bad not seen her for three months, she came one day in his atore at Wilmington, and he said, 'Harriet, I am glad to see thee; I suppose thee wants a pair of shoes. Her reply was, I want more than that Mr. Garrett said to her ia jest, I have always been liberal with thee, and wish to be; but I am not rich, and cannot afford to give Her reply was, 'God tells me you have mon ey for me. He asked her 'If God never deceived her? She said, 'No.

'Now, how much does thee asked Mr. G. After studying morneQt, she said, About twenty three dollars. He then gave her twenty-four dollars and some odd cents, the proceeds of five pounds sterling received through Eliza Wigham, of Scotland, for her. Mr.

Garrett had given some account of Harriet's labor to the Acti Slavery society of Edinburgh, of which Eliza Wigham was Sec malie uer comfortable.

Like I once heerd a nigro cry, 'ha mis tears. Two periods of the Presidential career of Mr.

Lincoln she alludes to with great feeling. The one covers the last day he spent in Springfield before he first started to Washington. The other is connected with the last day of Mr. Lincoln's life. He had a presentiment when he left his bouse at Springfield, thr.t he should never enter it again.

He was tender but very sad in all his farewells to his neighbors, fhen he got in his carriage to go to the statiou he gave the old homestead, where he had passed so many happy hours of his life, a long, fond, lingering look. Turning to his wife he said: My dear, take a good look at the old house, we shall never live in it again He leaned back in his carriage and was silent till he reached tlte station. The day on which Mr. Lincoln was shot he seemed very sad and worn down. Before he left the breakfast table Mrs.

Th; graceful and unexpected compliment tu the distinguished elocutionist was received by the crowdfHl house with rt storm of hearty applause. Bui this wus not the ouly incident of the evening Mr.

Murdoch recited Read's famoes poem, -Sheridan'a and prefaced it with the remark that he had specially desired to give this poem as the auth or had written it, because he perceived in one of the popular school books recently introduced, tho text had been tampered with, and where Mr. Read wrote the true word the word 'foenistt had been interpolated, he wished i' sUnd by tiie truth as Buchanan Ron 1 had written it A witness of the sccr" which followed this patriotic outline-' says that the audience, which couUic I largely of officers and soldiers, bro- In Dyspepsia it ia a certain cure.

I In consideration of its many virtues, I have thought it my duty to engage in the manufac turn of it on a large scale, and advertise it ex tensively throughout the world. The method for preparing it for use is somewhat complex requiring a numerous collection of chemical tools paraphernalia not usually possessed by dniists, and for this reason few drug stores could furnish it properly prepared, if they had the formula.

Therefore, I have purchased the Decenary articles, and with the assistance of a food practical chemist am engaged in its manufacture and salo. Trie "Life Compound" is purely vegetable, its principal ingredient being obtained from the rout of a plant which grows abundantly in some which, I am proud to say, is a French phrase, as you kin see becauie it's in little fine types.

State whether you know of say of the Director of the prison South having demanded or received any money for the purpose of inflaencin- their official actios ia tbe appointment of any officer of aaid prison? A. 'I do not'. So it would seem that the 'farming' operations of the Directors were not a success, and we are at a loss to discover the reason why the Committee should use such language There ia no proof whatever, that the Directors levied black mail on any subordinate officer, although the Warden did. Tet the Committee so word the report, as to leave tbe impression that tbe Directors did it. Tbe Warden, and Physicians are the only officers the Directors could appoint or remove.

The Warden appoints and leirmes all others, and they are responsible to him alone, here is no pretense that either the Chaplain or physician ever paid anything, and in fact, the whole charge rests on the evidence ol Col. Meriwether tbat he paid Meredith and Ghee 1259 a year to retain his place. This statement fs denied explicitly under oath by the Directors. There was no dispute hut that Meredith and Oh3 bad on sereral occasions, got money of Meriwether, but while he said it was in tbe way of black mail, the Directors swear that they borrowed the money and repaid all of it but one loan with interest. If the character of the Warden and Directors was upon a level, we would have no hesitation io believing the latter, because of the improbability of tbe Warden Story, lint when we look at the evidence of Col.

Meriwether, we find him making admissions of corruption, brulaiity and indeceney that would render hi testimonv worthless in anv court of justice, and you will tide with me this afternoon at and he promised. Airs Lincoln said: 'shall I invite some friends to go with He said: 'No, let us go alone. He was uncommonly tender retary, and a gentleman hearing tae let ter read, was interested in her, and this wa3.how the money came. About twelve months afterward, she called on Mr. Garrett again, and stated that God had told her that he had somo money for her, but not as much as before.

He had a few days previous received from Europe the net proceeds of one pound ten shillings for Harriet. The whole stor- full of such incidents, showing GcJ's overruling and guiding hand, and one cannot help feeling convinced of the fact that she was indeed a chosen f. a specfiic work, and invulnerable till that work was ended. Her services as nurse and scout were exceedingly valuable during the rebellion, and it is passing strange that no pension has been allowed her far from the toirn of Cambridge. Not a drop of white blood flows in her veins Ier parents are both pure-blooded Africans, and they still live at the advanced age of ninety eight, as near as can be estimated from certain records.

After service there they go to a class meeting at the Methodist Church; then they wait for a third service, and after that start for home.
