Miss Cornell alleged tha the defendant, as guardian had misap propriated $1,435.93 due her. Counse for the defense objected to Commissionc proceeding under Section 5,486 of th Revised Statutes against his client guardian while the accounts of the latter which are before the Orphans' Court Bucks County, have not been settled, an the balance due the ward has not been ascertained. "In other words," saic counsel, "a guardian's account cannot be settled before a United States Commis sioner." "I don't propose to settleany said Commissioner Bell. Assistant District Attorney Gilpii then proceeded i the examination Miss Cornell. "It will be necessary to inquire your age," said he in a manner that impressed every person present with the delicate character of the vuestion.

"I am twenty-one years of age," replied the witness with a smile. Continuing, she testified that she was the daughter of Henry S. Cornell, a member of the 20th Pennsylvania Cavalry, who diet about the time of her birth from woundi recievcd in the war of the Rebellion She was well acquainted with the defendant. He had been appointed her guardian when she was quite small child, and had charge of her father's estate. The witness had not presented a claim for pension, as her guardian had charge of that that matter.

In August last the defendant sent her a statement of his accounts through Lewis H. James, hut the statement was rejected because it allowed but $475 for pension money, whereas the witness knew that there had been more than that amount collected. Subsequently the defendant presented another account, but the witness believed that this referred to the estate. This the mother of the witness accepted as being about correct. About this time Miss Cornell called upon her guardian and requested some money, which he refused to give, remarking, "You need not expect a cent, because I cannot give it to you." She said she would like at least $1, but he explained he was earning just enough money to pay his board.

In all he had given her about The witness was aware that Mr Seott had met i financial embasrass- nient four or five years ago, but did not i that anything to do with her accounts. When the witness questioned concerning tile amount of lension he had drawn from her he replied that he did not know. She understood that Scott has been appointed her guardian because he was quite an influential nan.

Howard B. Sickel, a clerk in the Pen- fion office, offered in evidence documents showing that a pension hud been granted the child of Henry S. Cornell, to date from January 19, 18G6, to May 23. 1878, or until she reached the age of sixteen rears, and the moneys, amounting in all $1,435.93, had been paid to the defendant as guardian.

STOKY OF THE Edmoiu O'Donovan. Under the title of "The VIerv Oasis," Mr. O'Donovan recently iiiblished a work in two volumes, which created a decided sensation abroad. Tb amount of minute detail was thought uninteresting to the general reader, and so his condensation was made by the author himself. As a story of travel, it is one of the most thrilling of recent years.

As a work of description, its importance anc aithfulness have been promptly conceded. The country described--Centra! Asia--has been, one may say, rediscovered by the writer, and his powers of obj ervation and his literary skill acquired many years' service as correspondent a influential London journal, give the vork an interest and finish seldom found. dashing, animated style is character- stic of the author's life, so full of adventure and exploit.

The rincipal factory is Detroit, from whence large portion of suene is forwarded to liis city. It is said to turn out eighty lousind pounds a day.

Meredith, he proceedings were begun at the in- atice of some of his relatives, and bore 3011 the possession and right of disposi- on of his property. It was shown ou ie trial that Mr. Meredith had been onfined in an asylum in England that was subject to hallucinations; that ubsequently he was confined in the Penn- Hospital for the insane, and that sheriffs jury had found him insane.
