The:e letiers pavlicu- larly reserred to the bodies of the old lidy and the boy, and remarked that the lat.er was too tender, and he had better take none so young rereafter—no_younser than fourceen years. It stated that ‘tae latter body had been dic- posed of to other parties. Ir closed was a check or #90, to apply on account. Jones said Mor- ton better not remain here too long, elsewhere to work on a contrae., which w.s referred to as for seventy bodies. Tuere was reference in the letier to the fact thay some sixty bodies bad bea received from him ac Columbus and vicinity. It. was a'so discovered that some of these bodies were reshipped from Ann Arbor to Cincinnati, About a week later, by means of an appheation of croton oil to the skin, Mor- ton got up a first-class eruption of the surface of his body and created a jailsensation. Tae physicians were beautifully deceived, and pronounced it a clear case of small-pox. In this condition he was removed to the pest. hou:e for treatment. On the 29.h of that month he escaped from the pest-house and Was never recaptured. Alter his escape it was strongly intimated that several interested sur- geons of Toledo had the master part todo in | applying the croton oil to Morton’s skin, and thus effecting his eseape. If caught this time it will require a stronger dose than croton oil to get the ghoul from the hauds of the law. ty pat but go Ex-Gov. Bowie's Filly Defeated by a Shadow. Nine of the best three-year old fies in the country contended for the Ladies’ stakes, one “mile and a_ half, at Jerome Park,’ N. Y., on Thurcday, including Gov. Bowie’s ‘chestnut filly Belle. ‘The New | York Trilune says: aa | “The start was even, and as the nine | thorough-breds ‘swept down the first half | nile from the starting point in the woods, the | spectacle was one toe cite admiration. Loril lard’s Balance “¢ 1! was in the lead as the tieet fillies flashed by the grand siand for the first time. The black jockey on Lioyd’s filly wi urging the winner of the Maryland stakes, and she wa good second. Pride of the Vil- | lage was third and Judith fourth, with the rest crowding pe'l-mell close behind. Balance All was still the leader,as the fly ne squadron turned around the club-house bill, The vail of dust ob cured the view as they emerge1 from behind the barrier of the hill, but through the rifts it could be seen that Balance All was yet in advance. The black jockey on the Lloyd filly kept_a good place; and’ the Bowie filly was striding so fast that her De- sition in ‘the race was improving every in- stant.’ The last turn was rounded, and then | came the mad rush down the long stretch to the end. Balance All’s oc ‘aised his arm and the stinging lash fell. The filly darted forward, but there were fresher and betier racers behind. Livyd’s filly was still second, but she was not the one to be feared. Bowie's filly Belle now showed her speed and_ power. Springing forward with an elasticity and vigor tuat made her gain at every leap, she pressed to the front. Foot by foot she strug- gled by her rivais and soon was in tae lead. fhe race was hers beyond a question. Sie was still full of speed and strength, and the others were being whipded and were lagging. But as she passed the water jump she swerved. from the shadow of the hedge, stumbicd ani almost fell. Her jcexey nimbly recover d himself, but toolate. Her chances were gone. ‘Then Balance All seemed to be the winner. But Withers’s Invormore—eared by no one until then—made a splendid burst of speed and flew by Balance Ali and the Ltoyd filly, winning a very exciting and interesting race by halt alengih in2 46.

Mr. Thatcher thought that the informatioa derived by the people from a perusal of the de- bates was of little con-equence, and be caved but little for the fate of the resolution before the House. As to the convenienee of posiior, he doubted if a more correct account of the de. bates could be given from a situation without the bar than within it. 1t was well known that for four or five sessions aiier the organization of the federal government sienographers never came within the bar, and their positions wers as remote from the members as would be tie case outside. Yet by a reference to the de- bates then taken they would be found correet- lytaken. When the seat of goverument was transferred to Philadelphia and stenographi occupied places within the bar, complaints in- creased—ihey were taken more incerrectly, and two or tliree of the reporters were actualiy turned out, and sent to the upper galleries. The incorrectness of the pubiisnéd debates did not arise so much from an inability to hear as an inability to takedown a reported speeci. conclusions he drew was that if the re- admittcd, the public would g: y it. He had no objection to tne! on if the Speaker approved it ; as fa red they might take any place in tve Mr. Davis said he had heard no substantial rea.on in suppor of the report of the comimit- te.

Itis altogether probable t).t many of the members chafed under the meazer pub- lished reports of their sayings, as in tne sue- eeeding days frequent passages in the Con- gressional proceedings in this paper occurred in parenthesis like the foewing: * Mr. C., ia the first part of his remarks, was not heard, owing to our exclusion from the br; when eard, he said,” We.. &e. On January 9th, 1801, the Speaker had occa- s.on to order the Sergeant-ac Arms to arresi a disorderly person in the galery. What pur- ported to be a circumstantial account of the occurrence was published in next day's Inte! ligencer, and what the Speaker sai. The next day that officer rose to a per.onal explan- ation, and in bis rewarks stated that “here had been in the public prints of that day a Toss misrepresentation of what had occurred. fi'the Houges’ In his repori of this, the editor, in parenthesis, statcd the day following, in re- * tion to the Speaker's charge of misrepresen- tation, “these are words which convey any- thing or everything; without much latitude of gonstruction they may be applied noi only to the act, but the intention. They tend ter. - fore, to impair that character for a sacred ad- erence to truth, which the ¢ titor claims a* of right. He will not deny his inability always to understand the meaning of the Speaker, even when he bears a?! his words. His cono- lation, however, is that the misfor.une is not peculiar to himse!f.” The result ef this retori ‘was told by the editor the day following. He stated that “he took bis at the usval hour in tke area without the bar of the House, which place he had occu- Bec Seattle te r to occupy a ion wi 4 e Sergeant ae -ArinS addressed the editor With a verbal message from the Speakev, de- Siring him to withdraw from the area, with- out assigning any reason for it.
