AN ABBAS OF EMINENT BEFlTBLIOANfl. Q. Bof erring to yonr letter of January J28, 1877, you therein say "To counteract these machinations. Governor Hayes sent a large array of eminent Republicans to Florida, among tbem Senator Sherman, Stanley Matthews, Governor Noyes, Attorney General Little, Mr. Shellabarger, General Garfield," etc.

Is that correct, so for as President Hayes' having sent them there is concerned 7 A. I believed it at the time I wrote it on the 26th of December, 1876 I published an account of the Florida canvass, addressed to Hon. Z. Chandler, and It was printed In the Ri publie Magazine of January, 1877 I wish to quote a sentence lrom that account, and make it a part of my testimony as follows "In ooncluslon I may be permitted to say (bat the Northern Republicans present in Tallahassee, and including those who acted before the Board as Eepublicaneouaani, were eorupnlonaly oare fnl neltber to suggeshc)r allow anything to be done or attemptod for the purposo of securing a majority for Hayes whloh would not bear the fullest subsequent scrutiny. A fairer result produced by fairer means, according to law and evidence, was never accomplished." I believed that then and I believe it now.

By Mr, Butler While you were in Florida was any information given to you to the same effeot as that Mr. Dennis testified to on yesterday A. I heard nothing about Beck and Vance and their action as be has here testified; I never Buspected it until abont two months ago; at tbe time Mr. Dennis made his written statoment and came to my house and told me he had made a statement of that kind. Q.

Alter you came back from Florida did you reoom mend quite a number of people for office A. I did. Q. Please give me the names of them. TAKING CAEE OF DENNIS, MC LIN AND OTHERS.

Conoy Island Beach never was more of a luxury than daring the last two or throe days.

Tho ocean temperature has become excellent for bathing purposes, and hundreds have botakon themselves to Us refreshing embrace. Never was such thorough preparation made for visitors. Tho humblBBt of the restaurant keepers bave vied with tho proprietors of tho mo3t pretentious hotels in making ready for tbo thousands et expected gusits. The backwardness of the eeason has helpod to increase the geueral attractions, giving hosts ample opportunity to add to th wile by which to win customers. All this Is in favor of the people.

There is a universal consciousness of the hardness of the times, and with a desire to conform In prions suitable to the capacity of tho poorost of the people who shall avail themselvo3 of the sea girt Bhors for a brief breathing spell. The thermometer has been studied with anxiety and markets made accordingly. If there has boon a groat deal of disappointment thoro has been no lack of spirit or determination on the part of the caterers.

Tho Bcorcs of bathere at any particular spot are always attended by hundreds of interested watcsors on the Baud. Tbe careful hou. ewife who would despise a dusty chair for a seat thinks nothing of sitting il on the sandy beach which has bean travoraod by pe destriaus of the most carelsi habits. Children in neat, white attire, wi 'i fancj silk sashes and dainty shoeB and Blockings, play witb their little pills and shovels, digging out filling up again with unrrin energy, thus, perhaps, levelling in their minds a healthful rospoct for too dignity of labor, and acq' 'i: iig by intuition a juat reverence for the mission of tLo Itborer.

The pious aspect of this opi odt 'j that tbo cook dooa not get cursed, and thore ij growling about a biiih priced bill of fare. Dishes and napkins arc all gathored up when tbo meal is over, picked away in the baskets, and thon tbe party enjoy another stroll and a gambol on tho sand preparatory to taking the train for home. HO, FOB THE CONCERTS 1 Thero is a very large class of visitors to the who como by railroad, and others who ride in own private conveyances, coming by the Ocean PU way and Concourse, from four to eight o'clock, on purpose to enjoy tho concerts. This makes a fine assemblage when the people get seated around the music stands.

Arbuckle, in rendering hia solos, turns his face toward tho city and renders his performances with tho spirit ana ability for which he is so famous, aud while they on tho piazza are calling for more lagor, tho people applaud add call for more Arbuckle Encores are now common, and the coroetiat never falls to resp'ond. Coney Island without thoso evening concerts, after auch good usage, would be tamo and certainly not quite so interesting as with them. Philosophers and gossips during tbe Intervals between pieces, or botwoen drinks, discuss the railroad question, and Mr. Culver's sincerity, or the opposl.e Is canvassed as industriously as it he was a candidate for somo high and important office. Utilitarians point to the music stand, to the fountain, to tbe brilliantly lighted lamps, to the observatory, and In triumph ask their advorsarioB if those arc the Indications of hollow ness or of sincerity.

"Let us at least be thankful lor wbat we enjoy," exclaims another, "and after that Mr. Culver will doubtloss bo able to take caro of himself." However much the railroad President may protest against people modlllog with his business he has made his mark so indelibly on Coney Island that his business has lu some measure, and that a largi one, become everybody's business, and everybody going to continue to talk about htm Just aa tbey bave dou.i. THE OBSEBVATORr. Tbo Obserratory, reaching, with its flag pole, three hundred feet in tho air, is all but completed. Tim it to be what it waa designed to be probaily the most favorite attraction on the beach.

It has been erected on a well finished louudation. Over a Bolid surfaoe of concrete was laid a doable row of heavy timbers, and on these wero built tho solid brick piera on which stand tho tubular columns, the continuous sections of which are bracod witb iron rods froj) base to apex. This structure iB Bsen plainly from Rockaway Beach and from a long distance out at sea. It will be complete! in a few days, and when tho painters shall have presented it witb a cloan face tbe elevators will be placed at tbo sorvico of tho public, so that persons of lofty ambition may climb to its dizzying hoijlit, and satisfy themselves tbat although they might rise higher they caanot on thst particular tower. Few, if auy, visitors to the Island will about leaving it without ascondiug in tbo elevator to the top of the Observatory, and many a pilgrim will go thither that object in view.

Dootors will advise cortaln oi nir patientB to make tho ascont for tbe purpose of catching sniffs of air from tho uppsr currents. Mr. Cniver is adding to tbe attractions of tho plot belonging to the railroad, a few yards nearer the ocean than tbe fountain, an ornamsntal stand where soda water and cigars will be dispensed. PREPARATIONS AT BBIOHTON BEACH, The new hotel at Brighton Beaoh and tha surroundings, present the "busiest soene ever witnessed at the Island. Workmen are hastening to completion the largo turning table for the locomotives on tbe Brooklyn, Flatbush and Coney Island Railway.

The new gas house is nearly ready Inside, and its root 1b all that Is needed to finish It, Around the pagoda where Contorno is to dispense Brooklyn's best muslo, a substantial floor of board Is being laid, and radiating from It all directions are to be good plank walks. The intervals aro filled up with good earth and bordered with grass. The flowers will be planted at leisure, and then tire front of the new hotel will oonBtltute a thing of beauty. The olUBters of gas lamps will be numerous, and with tbe lights of tho muslo stand, 2and tho30 on the long piazza when In full blaze at night, wll! ba a brilliant spectacle when viewed from th brink of the ocoan. It may become necessary to increase the height of tbe bulkhead lu front to prevent the tide rising over the beautiful grounds and floating away the earth and the foot patbs.

Inside the hotel an army of furniture JolDers are at work fabricating the parts Into ojmpleie forms. The furniture is all made of ash and is deemed to be well adapted for oontact with the sea air. The capacious bar counterB are of tho flame material so, also, is the office oounter. When fully arranged and equlppod the Brighton will be unsurpassed in its furnishings by any hotel in tho country. Carpenters aro busy moking the kitchen ready for the abodo of cooks, carvers and waiters.

The facilities for keeping some things cool and othor things hot are abundant beyond what any former kitchen ever contained. The bed rooms In the upper part of tho edifice are prepared by an army of women for the new oarpets and new furniture. The gas fixtures throughout the establishment ore of tbo moBt suporb order. The cbandeltors in the dining room and corridors are huug with a profusion that suggests the idea of boing thickly BBttled. Tho motal la with a bright garnishing which makes it shine with the lustro of polished gold.

There are six branches to esch obsndoller from one end of tho great piazza to the other, and around tbe ends are pendant lamps, each In tho form of a glass pyramid and eaoh containing eight burners In a circle. The fixtures through the whole house will be arranged so as to be lighted by electricity. The immense cellar, with Its conoreted floor, has been partitioned off into numerous apartments for purposes, in many instances, not yet indicated. The Police Department of the Brighton will be under tbo command of John S. Folk, wboo name as a polioe officer is power, and to evil doors an awful ter ror.

He will bo aided by Andrew R. Drake, Michael Foley, Henry Bavendam, Edward Thornton, John A. Leich, Andrew Buchanan, Matthew Duff and eevoral others whose names do not yet appoar. It may bo that tbe hotel will be ready for sonis demonstration by Monday, but tho amount of work to bo dono does not encourage tbe expectation. Messrs.

Breslin and Sweot are extirllng themselves to tho ond of getting ready at tho earliest moment to wolcomo thousands of guests. FOBEIQN VISITOB3 AT THE BEACH. An official party from Newark, N. visited tho Island the other day, ani wero jubilant ovor what they saw, ate and drank, The party included the Sheriff of Essex County, N. the Board of Supervisors, Board of Aldermen and County Clerk.

They wero dintd at Cable's, and, bafore they loft, broke out into spcoches, in which thoy confessed tbat Coney Island was ahead of Newark in enterprise and public spirit. Newark has no fountains, no observatories, no asa side nearer than tho Jersey fiats. One of the speakers was so overwhelmed with what he bad enjoyed during his visit that he promised to go borne and urge the people of Newark to como down to Coney Island In a body. haixiday's clambake.

Th i.tn.t improvement for the benefit of horses and wagons is the new pl road which has ben laid to counsel the Concourse witb Thompson's Hottl, on tho Heights ot Coney Island. This plank road crosses the horse railroad track and leads right to the bouse. Thompson's is an eighteen years' old hostelry, and It the favorite resort of many ol Brooklyn's bear known dtliens. To looking for retirement from tha turmoil' and 9vdtomnt of tha beach, this house 1 an ample retrft Thompson insists that No pent up TJttea ml contract his powers" nor hide the sign mannJ of Thompson."

What aa Old Man's Fancy Pld From a Photograph Gallery to an Elegant Home Our Old Friend the Will Tarns Up. Some wise old fellow in the past said that one half the world does not know how ths other half lives.

Tho remark waa Intended to apply to the means by whioh life la preserved, but It will apply as well to the manner of living as to the means of subsistence. Ap open and public as is the American home life, as compared with that of other oountrios, yet It may be set down as a certainty that within the reoessea of nearly every family there is conoealod a secret, which may be called either a romance or a skeleton, as the oase may be. These affairs are sedulously oonoealed from ths publio eye, and tbey rarely oome to the surface, ezoept when the parties go to law and then the secrets are apt to be dragged Into light during the legal inquisition. Thore is one of these romanoes In this olty, of whloh at least a part Is likely to be told In the Surrogate's Court ol this oouutj before many days. Some seven years ago, those whose business or pleasure led them into the neighborhood ol the City Hall, might have had their attention attracted by the figure of a girl, striking in appearance.

Her apparel, whloh aimed at a oertain degree ol smartnoss, and was not put on without taste, betokened that she was of that class In whloh wealth was not. Bhe was frequently seen upon tbe stroots and at those hours when females who earn thoir own living pass to and from their homos. She was distinguished above her sisters by a pair of beautiful eyes, soft, lustrous and bright; her hair hung in luxuriant ebon masses, while her complexion was of almost dazzling wh'teness, relieved by a faint tinge of carnation In her cheeks; her llpB were ruby and pouting. The adverse orlticlsm as to her face would probably ba directed toward her profile: her nose yould ba pronounoed retrousse, but there was suoh a jaunty and piquant expression that none but the hypercritical would daro to suggest the defeot. It was br figure though that attracted attention by its admirable proportions Blight, graceful and willowy.

Her beauty made her a marked figure upon the streets, and hor passage along the thoroughfare of the oity was always followed by the admiring glanoeB of tho male bipeds, who did not, as' a general thing, endeavor to conoeal their admiration. It would be BTBANOE INDUED, If she did not, In a olty like Brooklyn, find plenty who offered to worship at her shrine. She did and they came to her with purposes, often oonoealed and bid from her by words that were of fair promise and honeyed sweetness. The fair and just inference is that none succeeded, whether their purposes were honorable or otherwise. True, there was a time, when slander was busy with her oharscter and reputation, and the oharges that were made against her were many and severe, not the least of iwhloh was that she was passionately fond of ardent spirits, that she was given to profane language, and that she so laoked in delloaoy and womanly modesty as to pose before an artist as a model.

As to the last It was believed to be true, but whether In the antique way or not, It Is neither the purpose nor the right of the writer to surmise, That she was poor was well known; at that time ehe lived with her mother In Sohermerhorn street, and by her labor aoutrloutad to the family support, her mother bearing her part br earning her money as a scrubbing woman in one of Brooklyn's institutions. While slander was yet In whispered nooents attaoklng her fair fame, and it is believed unjustly, she obtained employment in a daguerreotype gallery, In Fulton street not far from the City Hall. She was a decided source of profit to the proprietor of tho gallery, for she drew many a callow youth to the studio, who made bis ploture a means to the end of engaging in a conversation, if not modest flirtation, with the young girl. It was here that she made acqualntanao with a gentleman, whioh wholly altered her future life. Thore was, and tbe past tense must boused, sinoe tbe person has passed away, a gentleman, well known In the vicinity of the City Hall.

He dwelt In Bimsen stfeet not far from Court street, and was a widower. He was then a well preserved gentleman not far from sixty. Hia ho.tr, whiskers and mustache were whlto as the driven snow; ho walked about slowly with his thumns usually in the armholeB of his vest, oarrylng his oane under his arm, with the fingers of his left hand grasping the stlolr. He walkod about with tbe air of a man, upon whoso hands time hung heavily. It did as a matter of faot, for hejwas In moro than oasy olr oumstances, and engaged In no business.

His acquaintances and friends oalled him Doctor, though he was not of the modlcal profession, nor of any other, wherein the title oould ba properly bestowed. THE DOCTOR was, as said above, a widower. He had had no ohlldren, but years before had adopted a young girl who upon growing to womanhood had married a gentleman In this olty, a lawyer who praotioes mainly in New York a gentleman, whoBS name if mentioned would bo recognized as of one of Brooklyn's oldest families and who recently made his debut in legislative life. This adopted daughter had died however and left her husband a widower with several children. It may be remarked parenthetically that tho gentleman married again, last Fail.

Tho ttomBSU street house of the Doctor was oared for and managed by tbe relatives of his deoeased wife, and as far as known the Doctor's lifo was happy, or, as happy as an old gentlemen's life could be after having been widowed at an advanced age. However, tbat may be when he made the ao quaintanos ol the young lady in the photograph gallery, tho basis of a change In his home was laid. The Dootor took a most decided liking to the young girl a liking that he was at no pains to conoeal, either from her or others. Day by day be visited her at the gallery and talked to her He had discovered at the outset that she waa deficient in education, and he proposed that she should leave her employment aud go to sohool, promising to pay her tuition bills, to clothe and support her at home with her mother. To this she gladly assented aud for some time thereafter she devoted herself to making up for the deficiencies, the result of her poverty.

It was some months before this aot came to tha knowledge of the friends of the Dootor. The patron and tho protege had met frequently upon the street and had been seen walking together, and together tboy visited the theatre at least once a week. All of this had been made the sui 'ct of comment and the Doctor had oome In for a good share of lun, poked at him by his friends and cronies. But he had stood It all good naturally, neither seeking to explain It nor defend bis aot. When however It became known that he was sending her to school and was olothlug her, and whloh be did most handsomely, there was much trouble made for him at borne.

This he bore most patiently until one day he carried the war Into Africa with a vengeance. He told his wife's relatives, who were living In bis house, that on the following day he should bring bis protege home to live with nim. There was an explosion, angry protestations, expressed doter ruinations that she Bbould never enter the doors. But he coolly and firmly told them that oome she should and that if they did not it like, they oould leave the house. SHE CAMS AND THET LEFT.

Then blB old cronies pronounoed bim "an old fool," said that he "had lost his wits," that he was 'In his dotage" and needed "some one to look after him," But he was as aubllmoly indifferent to their comments as before, and settled down quietly into life under the new administration of things at home, Of course, there were a great many things said that were unkind and whloh reflected severely upon tbe morality of both of the parties, but It is at least questionable whether ttils was right or not. It is believed, and the judgment is formed from a somewhat Intimate acquaintance, with the gentleman In question, that he was ono of thdse natures tbat required some one to love and be loved by tbat be was lonely In his old age, tbat he vet had sympathy with youth and that he wanted a youthful person to do for, to provldo for, to care for. Sympathy in his life and affairs he had not had alnee his wife had died. He believed that this girl, bound to him by all the ties of gratitude, would fill the void In bis life and supply the want he experienced. This Is believed to be the sole reason.

Had his wife relatives acoepted bis determination without protestation or indignant, angry and blttor opposition, It is further believed tbat all that would have oome of his patronage of the girl would have been tbat she would have been added to the household. However the purity and integrity ot bis motives did not preserve him from slanderous remarks; but If. they disturbed him, he did not let the outer world know that they gave him uneasiness. It Is at least fife years ago that the girl became the Inmate of ot his house and the oompanion of his declining It Is long ago that scandal concerning bis act ceased. Certain It is tbat she made his home comfortable and admirably performed the duties ot the mistress of the house.

Even the neighbors, who were at first prone to oritioise bis aot most severely, acknowledged that she most properly did her duty as house wife. So the whole affair having been talked out, aropped Into oblivion and probably would not have been revived, but for the death of tbe Doctor a short time ago. OI oourse, It waa the Doctor's relatives, who were most bitterly opposed to the act, beoause they naturally thought the girl would come in as a beneficiary under bis will. When he died and bad been burled, and a decent time bad been allowed to elapse, the relatives made an effort to know bow be bad disposed ot bis property. They gathered at bis late residence and demanded ot his protege access to his private papers.

She brought everything from the prlvat a drawers ol his deBk, ooncealing nothing, offering no objection and at the same time disclaiming any knowledge whatever ot bis business affairs, in whloh she deolared that he had never taken her Into bis confidence. Among these documents was a will, made a few years ago, in whloh no provision at all was made for his protege. This very naturally surprised his relatives and the girl herself. But suoh was the faot. However, there was found also a letter of date subsequent to that of tbs will, In whloh Is expressed his wish that tha exooutors should pay over to the girl, for her usi and exclusive control, tbe sum ot 19,000.

Of ooura) tho relatives are jubilant as their fears had led them to bolleve that being ao completely undet the lnnuenoe ot the girl he would have devised tbe bulk of his property to her. But the.1 are not olearly out of woods yet. There Is box sealed and locked, belonging to tbe Dootor, lij tbe vaults of the Brooklyn Safety Deposit Companil (or, la It the Brooklyn Trust wbicIJ eannot, aooording to his instructions, be delivered tr any one but the Surrogate, upon bis order, and can not bs opened by anyone but that official. This box! le regarded with no little anxiety and anticipation, for. aa the will already found bears date ot a year previous to that In wbicb be took the girl undei his oare.

It may contain another will of later dott, and whloh makes a more liberal provision for hor. This box cannot be opened until the will, now in the bands of hla relatives, is offered for probate, which will not be for a week or two. Thus Is pre anted a storv. which has had oroareaa In out) midst and which contains many ot tbe elements oq zne moaern novel ana wm prove mat our vur acauaintanoAfi lira In a drama, in thai loenes and incidents of whloh we would take as) lively and deep an Interest as ol any piayaa upon the stage, It we oould be made to befleva that It was a drama ploying In our very midst.

HUBBARD. Her Husband Again Arrested on Suspicion. EFFORTS BEING MADE TO SOLVE THE GBAVESEND MYSTERY. As anticipated by the Eagle, Samuel Hubbard was rearrested yestorday afternoon on suspicion of having poisoned his wife, Maria L. Hubbard, with tbe particulars of whose death the publio are familiar.

Thla aetlon has been under advisement for a week by the officials wboare charged witb tho responsibility of bringing the party or parties who were guilty of the atrocious crime to justioe. It will be remembered that on tbe afternoon on which Mrs. Hubbard was burled, her husband, "Cobe" Stryker and Miss Elizaboth Lusk, her niece, were all placed under arrs3t by Detectives Corr and BlggB, who were acting under the Instructions of Coroner Simms, but on being taken before Superintendent Campbell were promptly dia oharged, aa It was not then positively known whether thero was poison In the bear or not. Tho careful chemioal analysis whloh wsb made by Professor Eaton ENTIRELY CHANGED THE SITUATION. The presence of strychnine was discovered in large quantities, not only in the beer whloh was left, but in the contents of the stomach.

As soon aa Professor Eaton made a report to the Coroner to that effect, the latter had a consultation with Dlstrlot Attorney Cat lin over tho case, and it was determined that the husband should be kept undor striot Burveillanco and that meanwhile the deteotives should prosecute their Investigations. Yesterday morning, presumably on tho discovery of ebnie new developments, Mr. Hubbard's arrest was determined on and a wirrant was drawn up by the Coroner for tho earns, on suspicion of having poisoned his wife. Tbe warrant was placed In tbe hands of Deteotlve Corr, whoimmediately went to Oravesend to exeoute it. The detective found a very excited state of affairs around lhe Deal little Hubbard cottage.

A meeting was to progress in the Town Hall, directly opposite, for the purpose of settling some matters of taxation, and the two factions known as the Town and the Island parties were having a hot time of It. The mooting was just breaking up In a general rumpus when Detective Corr reached the apot. His presence Boon diverted the attention of tho town peoplo from their political imbroglio, and his movements were closely watched. As quietly as possible Corr entered tbo cottage from the rear, and found bis man Bitting on tbe front stoop in bis shirt sleeves in front of tbe rose busbes and honeysuckles in tbe garden. The sudden appearance of tho detective did not Beom to have tbo effect of exciting him in the least, and when Corr showed him the warrant and Baid that he would have to take him to Brooklyn he EXPRESSED NO SURPRISE WHATEVER, simply asking for an opporlunity to arrange hla wardrobe, Corr, of course, courteously consented to this, and tbe old man Bpent half an hour or so in preparing bimself and in giving instructions to his sister, Mrs.

Jobnson, and his granddaughter, Miss Voorhies, who bare installed themselves as bis housekeepers since the death of his wife. His departuro on the train was witnessed by scores of people who thronged Sim. Hoag land's shady veranda, and who were divided in their opinions with regard to his guilt or innocence. On the way to the city he made no protestations of innocence is he had done on the previous occasion of his arrest, but remarked that for a year or moro he had boen a miserable man and bad lost noarly 50 pounds in flesh. He had a horror of being sent to Raymond street Jell, but said that he was ready to face tbo muslo.

On reaching tho city bo was immediately taken to police tora and after aa nta(QW th tbe Super Intondent was sent by tho latter to tbe First Precinct Station House, whera Corr handed Mm over on Dr. Biennis warrant to Sergeant Cain. Tho Superintendent sent instructions to Captain Smith to have tho prisonor closely watched, and not to allow him to bold communication with any one. The police authorities refuse to disclose what new facta boariu against Hubbard they may have obtained, but the old man will be obliged to put up with prison accommodation until after the close of tbo Inquest, which will not bo before Tuesday evening. The inquiry into tho bottom facts is CONFINED TO A VERY NABBOW OIBOLH, but the wholo case io involved in bo much mystery, that the truth will probably never be elicited without a oonfoBBlon.

MiBs Lusk left Graveaend last Wednesday, and is now residing with hor comm in Adelphi street. She is anxious to return to har home in Rockland County, but has been forbidden to do so oy the Coroner, who will want to examine her further at tho next session of the inquest. When aaked if she would not liks to remain with the Hubbard family at tSravesend, she aa.ld Bhe "would not do bo If the house were built with gold." It is laid the old man has been drinking heavily tho past week and some foare are entertained that he may make an attempt to commit suicide. There is a large and respectable element in the town, who have known Sam. Hubbard for half a century, and who believe, in spite of the cloud of suspicion surrounding him, that he is an innocent man.

Should the jury bring in an opon verdict it probable he will be discharged. MB. HUBBARD TALKATIVE. Coroner Simms and Detective Corr called at tho Washington street Station Homo at a lito hour last night, and bad a long chat with tho prisoner, who was feeling exceedingly uncomfortable in blB unpleasant quarters. In speaking of his late wire be did not refer to her in endearing terms, but, on the contrary, spoke very bitterly of tho harsh tieatmont ho had received at her hands.

"I hod," ho Bald, "not been married two years, but no one but myself knows how much I have suffered during that time. Bhe would not allow mo to ee my relatives, sad when I went to visit my sister, Mrs. Jobnton, I would have to go a roundabout way to get to her house. If she found out I visited any of my friends she would raise a disturbance when I got home, but when she scolded me I would say nothing. Last Summsr she mado mo lie on tho floor, and my existence was a most wretched one.

I grant that there are a great many things which look suspicious against me, but I cannot help that. I bought tho strychnine to kill tho rats, and I went down into the cellar on the morning of my wife's death to get a pair of rubber boots, as tho day waa wet." In further conversation he Bald hiB wife often spoke of poison, and on one occasion threatened to put poison into some one's tea. During hia absence he has left John Van Dyke Emmons and Jacobus Emmons In charge of his houso and effeots. HIGHWAYMEN. A Bold Robbery on Rockaway Beacb.

The violent thieves and pickpockets have taken to Bockaway Beach as ajplace of business, because it is comparatively unprotected. The hotel proprietors refused to pay tho deputies the Bheriff wished to appoint, and for a time tho Sheriff stood firm, but at last yielded, and appointed for eaoh saloon the p9rson the proprietor named. With but one exoeption tho doputies are regularly employed aa waiters or bsr tenders and have no time to attend to tho preservation of the peace away from their place of employment. The beach and the groves are unprotected. YeBterday afternoon a gentleman named Stewart, of the flrm of Stowart carriage bnildors, of New York, was in a saloon with some friondB.

There wore also many people, strangers to him. Mr. Stewart settled his bill hurriedly, and startel on a run through one of the groves, over a path which Is a short cat to Ramsen's steamboat landing. In tbe middle of tho thicket he waB accoBted by three men, two of them armed with revolvers and the third with a knife, and the latter demanded his money. He handed over $28.

The amount was diBguatlngly small, and by way of punishment for his not having more, they STRIPPED HIM OP HIS QOhV WATCH, leaving tho ohalo hanging to hi3 vest. The men took to tho railroad track, and ran east, threatening Mr. Stewart's life if he attemptsd to pursue them or made an alarm. Mr. Stewart wended his wiy back to the saloon, and his narration of the robbery raised considerable of an excitement.

Thore was no officer at that saloon, and messengers were sent to hunt one up at somo of the other plaoes, but it was fully half an hour before a solitary, diminutive spooimen of a Deputy Bheriff put in an appearance. "Could Mr. Stewart describe them?" Yes, And after that had been done, the officer thought he would noed help, and more time was wasted in finding another officer, before tho least attempt was mado to apprehend the highwaymen. They could not be found. The Sheriff of Queens County evidently does not realize the necessity for ample protection te life and property on the beaob.

The saloon keepers are nearly all at loggerheads, and by refusing to permit the officers to assist one another, each boohs to Imagine that he is advancing tho interests of his business by giving bis neighbor's place a bad reputation. Bat as ths Sheriff la individually responsible, be ought to have the force to Insist that ha shall name and control the men who are io maintain the place and protect the citizens. 8U1CIDU.

JUNE 30, 1878. GENERAL TELEGRAMS. Discussing the Results of the Peace Congress. Great Difference la Opinion Among the English Press The Employment of Indian Troops In Europe Commended by Sir Garnet Wolseley. Satisfactory Result of the Low Toll Policy on the Canals.

London, Jnno 29. Tbe English proa differ greatly in opinion as to the results thus far reaohed the Congress. Tho Daily News says "It is not for us to profesa any regret because ol the terms that have been tmpoaod on Turkey by the Congress, but wa confess that we cannot sco how Her Majecty'a present advisors oan come with any credit out of the wholo transaction. Tho dulloat Turk muBt now seo that Turkoy would havo had far bettor terms if she had submitted to the recommendations made by tho Constantinople Oonferonoe." Tbe Saturday Review says "A comparison between tbe map attached to tbo treaty of San Stefano and the limits of Bulzaria as defined by tho Congress, largaly but inadequately represents the servioo whioh tho Prims MiniBtor and Foreign Secretary hare rendered to England and to Europe. The means by which a considerable buccbbb has boon attained are even moro valuable tban tbo material result.

The English Government has, throughout the negotiations, never been exacting or overbearing, and it has always been Crni." The Standard pays "The delimitation of Bulgaria, though it leaves us with something much better than bad beoD conceived in tbe treaty of San Stefano, cannot be regarded as in any sense a triumph for England, and it will be still less favorably viewed by tbe peoplo of thla oountry, if it is intended to be tho sura and end of our diplomatic exploits. For all practical purposes, tbo danger against wbich wo proposed to guard Europe remaina almost as great as it was." Tbe Z'rmcs aava Tbe Congress, like most reasonable assemblies, has disappointed equally both ol the extreme viowb wblch bad been taken of its prospects. It has boen sitting for no moro than a fortnight, but tbe questions which threatened most directly the peace of Europe have been, in substance, solved, England having secured tbo barrier of the BalkanB to Turkey, Ho compromise on minor points destroys the value of such a concession." Tho Native Indian Troops. London, June 29. General Sir Garnet Wolseley has written an important and exhaustive articlo for the July number of tbe North American Review on the subjeot of "lhe Native Army of India and Its Present and Future Organization."

His brother, who is in tbe penitentiary for abooting three tcamstera near Fort Hall last Summer, yesterday attempted to commit suicide, but was discovered and tbo attempt failed. Ho and Tambiago had asked as a special favor that if one must die, tbe other be permitted to die with him.

Potttr, Chairman, etc. Sis Tho resolution under wbich your Committee is acting accuaes me of mduciDg certain oleotion officers of the State of Louisiana to falsely and fraudulently represent and protest the eleotloa of November 7, 1876, In East Feliciana and pirt of West Feliciana as not "free and fair." As to tbe allegation that said election was "free and fair" aud tbe "proteet" to the contrary false and fraudulent, I ask that the witnesses hereafter named bo subpenaed and examined at such times and places as you may order. I subjoin a brief statement ol the matters about which I expect thoso witnesses to give material testimony, and also refer to the document and page whore their lormer testimony is to bo found, to the end that tha Comniittes mar thereby be enabled moro conveniently to Judge cf the of er ing the subpouas askod tor, ana also inaj na to some extent aided in the examination of witnesses. Secretary Sherman here rivsj the names and residences of nearU 100 witnesses, somo residini in New Orleans, East Baton Rouge, and the greater part of tbem in Ease and West Felioiana. He rofere to thoir former testimony as elicited at the socond session of the Fourty fourtb Congress, giving the numbers of tbe pages of tho doouments, to show there were orimes proved of wbipping, threats, raids by armed Democrats, killing, burning houses, shooting, intimidation, hansing, driving from home, expulsion from office, shooting sheriffs, VIOLENCE AT POLLS, property taken away, etc.

In order to convey to the oommlttee a little moro explicitly than above statements do wbat I expect to establish by tho foregoing witnesses, I add tho following statement ol what the reoorda of Congress authorize me to state. The combined result of their testimony will be First Tbe prevalence In the parishes above named, as well as in those adjoining, before and at the time of tbe eaid election, and especially at tbe time and places of registration of voters preparatory to said election, of tho thoroughly organized and executed eystem cf intimidation of Republican voters by the Domocrats. This Intimidation enforoed by means of daily and nisbtly raids by armed bodies of man upon the persons and property of Republicans, Includes in those acts of violence killing, wounding and whipping of Republicans; breaking into and burning bouses and stores, and other outrages, by means of which such a stats of terror was inaugurated in these and the adjoining parishes tbat the leading Republicans In these localities "were forced to leave tneir bomss, and prevented from organizing for the campaign, and the rank and file of the party utterly disheartened, a large majority of them forced against their wish eitber to deBlst from voting or to vote the Democratio tloket. That this Intimidation was carried to suoh extent that the lirge Republican majorities which had appeared at every eleotlon after tho close of the war and prior to the oleotion of 1876 were thereby suddenly converted Into large Domooratlo majjritlos, so that in some of the precincts and in one of the parishes, to wit, East Felioiana, not a single Bepublioan vote was Second I expect by this testimony to show that witnesses ol both parties conoede existence of th violence and intimidation, though tbe Democrats say that It was NOT POLITICAL in Its oncrln. Third 1 expect by this testimony to show an estab lisbment of tbe claim tbat it was political and directed by Democrats sgainst Republicans as such, that this organised violence was so timed as to precede and oov er the time OI regiairauou, uu iu piQueau eiecuona uau that it ceased after the eleotlon, and that tbe victims of the violence and intimidation were almost always ths active and leading Rcpublibans, and never Democrats.
