He eagasod hero iu tho practico of the law, but soon vecame iutorested in politica, aud, about 1860, was Bp pointed ‘Third ‘Assistant Poutimaster-General, at Wasblogton, whoro ho remaiaed for about two years, or until olected to Congress from this distict. He das held this aitico ever ance, mith the cxception of two torms, for ono of which he was defeated by Gon, Dodge, aud tha other by F. W. Palmor.* While out of Cougrosy, he ferved in the State Legilasure, aud iu diplomatic relations with foreigu nations io the adjustment of postal regulations, Heine man of groat culture and amenity of manner, and i4 one of the moat polished and elegant of public aporkora of tho country. Tils course of life bas not been favorable to tho do- valopment of bigotry or unreasonadle proju- dicey, from whieh he is remarkably froo. He has tho intollectual activity and alertoees that reautt from a Now-Englond training; but tho eccentricities aod projudices that seem inherent in the Northeastern broozes have becu subdued and softencd by the unconscious fluences that surrounded him in big Southern home. A pliro- nalogist would probably aay that bo was deficiont in combativenesy, and it bos been & xeneral re- aretof lie fiionds tha: he would not meot bis suomios on their eausen ground of personal in- vective. Vor yoats he rotusad to tuke any notice of the bittor porsoual attacks mado on him, or to reply in kind, ‘Lhe abuse heaped upon Lim dur- fog (ho cawpaigu of 1874 bocame intolerable, end he at Jaat TUBNED AT DAT upon bly aconners, fia chief opponant during the arly days of the factional Aight was Frank W.

Upon tolawas bvied the chacgo that Mr. Kasgon sold ont the interest of Towa for s briba given to influance bis vote in favor of tho Stookv-Hill route, and, cunstructively, inet the Plaite-Valloy, or Iows route, Mr. Kaxsoa, of course, exylains his setiou in a vory different Say. Ia did oot then think that subsidizing the Smoky-iilt routa would kill the Platte Valley branch, but tiat both routes would be built; --"hich opinion haa boon justified by the aabea- quent ¢ natruction of roti rontes. Ho farthor says that tie vored for tho act in question ho- cause it was calculate. to promote a competition iw building, by removing a provious act limitio the Contral Pacitle to the eastern boaudary o California, and by pormitzing the two roads to build toward enc other until thoy should meet ; that hu desired to ass the brauch line conuact with tho main rond at the mountains, instoad of at tho ono-hundradth moridian, na provided by 8 provions act—thus producing 8 largo fraMlo in the Weatorn States in articles required in tho mines which wore not reached by tho Union Pacitc Proser; and that, as the act 1b question war designed to rnecure theo benotits, bo voted for it und without any change of views nato the Platte-Valloy route. io dovica emphatically that bo was influenosd by money or any other consideration than the ovo mentioned, fle further save tuat, as A Jorge majority was in favor of tho bill, the ooly cerauion for the use of muney would have been ‘upon the othor side, THE NOCK-I3LAND ROAD MATTER, Tho next charge is, that Kasson received a brioo from the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Ruilroad Company tor ‘services performed by him in tho Twelfth General Assombly of tho Stace of Iowa, while a member thoroof; that the eaid brine was cooreed out of said Coinpacy under pratonso of bolnz attorney's feas, when, in realty, no wgorvicss ay an at torney were rondorod, To this Kasson roplies, that, siter the adjontnmont of the Legislature, while on * his woy_ to Washitgton, ho met Mr, B. F. Aliou at tho Bar- tia House, in Davonport, miilo stopping for sup- per; that Allen informed him tunt I'racy was Yory gratefnl for the part ho lad takeu in the Proprietor of tha Siale Neguster, Ho was a faish- Tut poluical tack, aud reflected all the party bigotry and animosity required in pis poul- tion so woll that he waa rewarded with tho ollice of Btate Printer. Bocoming om- nitious, he odoteuted with Kusaon for the Gun- gresuioual comuation. He wan nominated, elected, and w,eut two wintura dwalliag in marble halig at Washington. Ho noxt made a desperate elfort to secure a renomination; but Mr. Kneson's filends wore tao atrong, and Pulmer was ingiorion-ly doteated, Then he bade us farowell, Wishout atoppiug for the grasa to grow under his feat or tao wun to wee Upon his xolog, HE UIED HIM AWAY To CII0AGO; aod romor saya that, from that timy, he bas never permitiod bis eyes to even glance to the wostward, ile way sucvosded in charge of tue dtegister by J, 8.

During the campaign of 14/4, Clatk- son became moru vinomvue ihau over, and de- voted bie satire papor to porsonal auuse of Kas- fou, of which the latter tos Ho notice fur a loug time. Fiually & were of charges of corruption aud bribery in o Wero mado aguinut Kadsou iD A coumuvication over the diguature of J.C. Savory, These charges were omefully concoct- od, and Instauced wih apparent proof, Masaou could no longer ignore these ayuaults, and he met them with AN ZMPHATIO DENTAL, Clarkson and Savery reitorsted tho chargoa, and dotivd Kassou to bring a hbel-suit, avering that, if he did, they woud prove thew trae in a Court of Justics; and that they dosired nutuiug tore thau an opportunity to coutest the case in Ocurt, Kessou is indoed the just man to bring hibel-waits, but io this case bo was forced to doit, When the peii-ion waa tiled, s year ago, Olatkeon Pronounced it “a buncomba fibel-wuit," wud de- cared that it would never cowe to tral, Lut would be withdrawn by Keoton. Clarkson lived lung enough, however, 10 see the caso. + COME ON FOR TRIAL, Just two weeks ao tao case was called for trial io the District Quurt of this county, and she work of gettiug a jury begau. ‘Lbis proved a tack of no moan ditculty, fur vo long had the factioual fight waged that soarly eve:y man had boty Cormod and expressed an opiopian, Scores of men were called, and challeugod for vause,— Very half-hour of work luaving oss goud aud true man in tho jury-pox. After this process of accretion had cunuuued fora wutticiout time, the eye of tho curious bonolder was reirestiod by the Spectacle of twolve men who had formed no opinion as to the merits of one aspect of the controversy which had reged bere so bitterly for years. Tho chosen twelve mon wero theo sworn Jogislation of tho pravions svintor, and, in toon thorouf, wanted him to accept 500, Mr. Kas sean replied that ho could not accept ix. Al- len urgod that there was no impropricty in it, as his action was flniahod and * tho Logislaturo adjourned; but Kasson till rofusod to acvept it, Allen thuu returuod to Lracy, aud intormed him Kaasou would not Accopt tho inonoy. ‘Tucroupon Tiacy directed Alleu to pay it to Kaason as a rotuiner, and bayo bun go to Now York and uso his Iuduence with tho Now Yors stovkbolders in having thom with« draw the opposition tuoy wero waglag Againat tho Tracy wanagemout by means of suits and injunctions, In-this capacity Mr. Kanson eays he accopted tho moucy oa 4 retaiuer, aud went to New York and transactod the busivess, Lo avers that tho servioes thus performed by bim bad ue counection wiataver with his allicial acta, and wuro performed simply as an at- surmey. ‘THE DES MOINES VALLEY ROAD CHANGE. All theao charges are mado iu respuce to raile rond mattore. ‘I'he third ohargo is, that, while a momber of the samo Lesslaturo, he “manipu- lated through tho Tegislature, vo s contract,” a cortain clause in 4 bill making n grnot of lund to tho Dew Mojues Valley Railroad Gmpany. This ill granted certain Janda to tho Compauy upon cortain conditions, which were to ba accepted by eaid Company, uuder sheir corporate geal, within chirty daya; and to cheye provisions waa {acited 0. a clauae providing that tho act should havo eileut whether its couditiona wero accepted uy said Company or not; aud the charge is, that Mr, Kaawon-secured tho adoption of tuis claa and for auch services recoived a bitbe. Air. Sasson makes oxplicitdevlal of this, aud avers that he was actuated by no other motive than a dosire to secure tha building of the road. Ine datewie further charged tbat Mr. Kaswun hod pus tis clauge in the bul by forgery, aud shattt uover passed tho Mouse. ‘Tas is cone clusively answered, huwever, by the tact that tho Hatlroac Committee agreed to report tho cloueo, aod thut itis in the original bill as ap- proved by tho Cemmittco ou Enralled Bills, and by other cirourmstances that entiroly destroz this charge, ‘Tho caso belong put in Lasne, the next. step Wab to Pnopuck Tun Procy, which camo mostly iu tho shape of depositions, muuy of the partios called to testify being roui- Genta of otter parta of the conntry. In regard tothe Smoky-Hill quostion, the tostimony of Mr. Kaseon’s colleaguoy at tho time of the pasa- uago of tho act was taken, ‘tuo Hon. Hiram Price ond the Hon.

Tho matter respecting what fa styled the non- secoptauce clausd iu tho bill granting lauds to tha Dew Meinos Valley Raiiroad Company was thorougbly investiguted. The proof ‘furled utterly to establish the charge, eo witneaves testited that thoy knew ovthing of the muney boing offerod Kasson, or, for the matter of thas, anybody clao. ‘This belng tho evidenco, it was impowsible fur tho Register aud Bavery to de- fend on the plea of truth; and, inatuad, they put in APLEA oF PRIVILEGL,— alleging that they made she charges in good fuith, and hopestly belisved them 40 be true at the timo ; and that they wero addressed du tho votors of the Congressional District, of aud cou- cerning @ candidate for uttice, and were, shere- fore, 1 the eye of the law, privileged co muniostions and = msde without mailce, ‘This sort of ** Won't -you- pleano- excuse- wu?" defenses was in ‘ludicrous contrast with — tho bautering, bullying style of tho Register a voar since, whon it declared its gteat anxioty to have viiny ly she opportuulty to ove the truth of the charges in a Court of usice. Iu addition to this, the Clarkeous went ou the s:and, aud swore to what amply ox- citua the coutempt of frievds and foes, viz. + that choy lad no perwaoal feelings, but spoke of tne plaintiff abravs from ® political standpoint, This is so manifestly false that thore is not robably &mau in lows to-day mho believes it.
