Bartimone, Dec. 9.—The mayor of Westminster, in Curroll county, Md., has recetved a letter from England, asking Information concerning a negro named Lewis Charlton, who 1s traveling that country, seeking aid and’ askfg for assistance to bulld @ church and school for colored Baptists In Westminster. The writer of the letter, after ex- pressing a wish to assist him, if deserving, also expresses wonder at his having been sent to Enz- lan for such a cause and inguiires {nto the trath or falsity of his statements. Enclosed in the letter Was a handbill, in which Chariton announced him- self a preacher of the gospel to his race in the United States, who for fifty years was in bondage in the state of Maryland, and for twenty- eight Of those years suffered the worst effects of slavery. The Westminster Advocate commenting on the letter from England, says: “According to the statement of those acquainted with Charl- ton’s career, he came to Westminster either dur- Ing the war or just at ffs close, from Prince Gvorge’s county, |. He first started out to beg money to bulld the colored Methodist church on Union street, in this place, and at first made a Teturn of the money collected. After traveling all over Pennsylvania, he returned with the state: ment that he had beet robbed.

The Unpleasantness Between Them— Some Light ‘Thrown On It. MEMORANDA OP THE DEAD COMMANDER. The following papers, signed by the late com- mander of the ill-fated Jeannette, are given out for publication by the Navy department: Anctio STEAMER JEANNETTE, BESET AND DRIFTING IN THR PACK, December 21, 1830. ‘\WeMonanpcm. The following {3a statement of an occurrence this day, In which Mr. Collins treated me with Such disrespect as to cause me to relieve him from all duty tn the ship, and to inform him that upcn the return of the vessel to the United States I would report him to the Secretary of the Navy. My order in relaticn to dally exercise requires everybody (except sick and the man on watch) to leave the ship at 11 a. m. and remain out of her on the fce until 1p. m. Of course it has been under- Stood that Mr. Collins should come on board at noon to make and record In the slate meteorolog- ical observations for that hour, but I have observed, on several occasions of late, that he ‘se-med to remain on board much longer than such duty required. I had considerable trouble last winter in getting Mr. Collins to comply wity the order in regard to daily exercise—his delay in getting out of bed, his requiring time for his breakfast when up’and dressed, &c., making it sometimes 11:30 a.m. before he made his appear- nce On the ice, I polated out to him. then, his failure to obey my order, remonsi ed with him on his repeating the offense, insisted on my order being obeyed, and finally secured a literal com- pliance with {t, altuough, as he informed me, he had his own opinion of thé wisdom or necessity for such an order, or words to that effect. To- day, at 12:10 p.m, I went into the cabin to see why he remained so long, and at the same time to close my air-port, and found he had removed his coat, had lighted and was smoking his pipe, and, while writing In the port chart room, was carrying on a conversa- Uon with Mr. Danenhower. I said nothing and re- turned to the tee, At 12:20 p. m., as he had not yet come out, I went again to the cabin, and found nim at the stove adjusting his gloves and continu- ing the conversation be‘ore referret to, The fol- lowing fs the substance of an ensuing talk: I asked Mr. Collins, has it required all this time to make and record the 12 o'clock observations?” Hereplied: Well, sir, I ‘diy know the meaning of your question.” I sa The weaning of my question nis: Is it necessary for vou fn order to make and record the 12 o'clock ovservations to remove your ooat, lizit your pipe, engage in conversation with Mr. Danevhower, and remain in the cabin until 12:20 p. m2” He answered curtly: “Well, perhaps, I might have done it quicker, but I did hot Know my minutes re counted for me.” I sald in substan have seen fit to issue an order that everybody should goon the ice from 11 to 1, and your coming In the cabin and remain- Ing until 12:2) 1s a violation of my order that I will neither submit to nor permit you to continue. I have noticed for several d: tie that you were longer than necessary tn taking the noon ob- ‘vations, and to-day I satisfied myself on the subjvet.” ‘He replied: “Ob, very well, if you are atistied, of course Ihave nothing to say. I was not aware (or ‘I did not know’) it was necessary to follow me up.” Taske 1: “What do you mean by that?” He sali: “I mean that in taking meto task as you do, you are doing me a great injustice.” Isaid ‘AS this matter has gone so far it must go further. Be goo enough to remove your coat and sit down.” When seated I continued: “Mr. Collins, a representation to me of injustice has only to be made in proper language to secure you vil the justice you want. ButI do not like your Manner or bearing tn talking with me. You seem to assume tbat you are to receive no correction, direction or dictation from me; that your view of an occurrence 1s always.to be taken; and that if I differ from you tt is my. misfortune, but of no im- ortance to the result.” He comme! “I came here supposing I fnterrupte that part of It.. You are here in f: deal with the fact.” He resume ‘I do yt like the tone or the manner in which you speak to me, and the in Which I am taken to task.” Ireplied have a perfect right to say what I y to you. He sald: “I_acknowledge only the rights given you by naval regulations.” At first he was failure to z be more careful in future; then his con- tinued failure was more ' seriously _com- mented on, and he was made to under- stand that Obedience would be enforced fnally, after long endurance, he was reprimand: for thus repeatediy evading ‘and disregarding my order, upon which he became doth impertinent | and disrespectful, saylng that he took more exer- cise than any other person in the ship; that he had his own opinion about the wisdom or necessity of my order, and that I spoke to him as I would not dare to speak to an officer of the ship; in fine, in- stead of explaining or offering excuses for his con- duct, expressing his contempt for my regulations, and attempting to arraign me for enforcing them: Upon the resumption of the enforced exercise In the second winter, Mr. Collins again showed an evas‘on of and failure to comply withahe order in reiation thereto by consuming so much time in the cabin to make and record the noon meteorolog! cal observations as to considerably shorten als exposure to tie open air and daylight during the two hours set’ apart for that purpose. On the 34 of ber, 1880, he 80 far disobeyed my order as to remain in the cabin until 12:20 p. m. and meanwhile to light and smoke @ pipe, do some writing, and carry on a con- Versation w:th an officer on the sick list then pres- ent, until I Bas ihe him and called for an ex- planation. Mr. Collins attempted to eu, questions, but failing in this assumed a disres Tul and ‘insubordinate manner, and used diste— spectful and insubordinate language, saying that he did not know his minutes were counted for him; that he was not aware It was necessary to follow him up; that I was doing him great injus- tice; that I had no right to talk to him as I di that he would not admit my assertions; that he Would not have me put words tn his mouth; and finally, when I repeatedly told him he’ had disobeyed my order he positively aud as repeatedly contradicted me, saying, “{ have not, and when you charge me with disobeying an order I say it 1s not so.” ‘Icalled his attention to the fact that I must be treated with respect, both as to language and deportment, and that he failed 1n both par- ticulars; but he replied that “he treated me with all the respect due me, and acknowledged only such rights as were conferred on me by naval regu- lations” But that Thad no right to charge bim With evading or disobeying an order, and when I did so charzé him he would continue to say it 1s not 30.” had lost his senses to thus continue to contradict me, but he assured me that he was perfectly calu: and knew what he was about. Upon this I informed him that he would be re- ported to you upon our return to the United States or upon reaching some point of communication, und that pending such action he could perfor more duty in the ship.

It | is to the late war what the Order of Cincinnati was and Is to the revolution, and is self-perpet- uating, the membership descending from the j There are five commanderies—one each in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Milwaukee ana | Wasnmington. Senator Miller. of California, president of the Washington commandery, pre sided at the banquet. Speaker Keifer and many other soldiers of distinction were among the | mous Monitor, gave a graphic post-prandial ac- count of the fight between that vessel and the Merrimac. The culinary features of the occa- sion were very satisfactory. Representative George, of Oregon, on his re- turn to Washington for the session, was accom: panied as far as Ohio, by his mother, a venerable lady who, thirty-one years ago, made the te- dious journey to that remote territory, as the wife ot a pioneer, with this tall and handsome son an infant inherarms. Two years ago she was bereaved of her husband, and this Is her first return to her old Buckeye home, in Noble county. The family were six months on their everland trip, enduring many hardships. Mr. George isthe only Representative who is obliged to come a part of the way to the capital by sea, and next yearhe hopes to come by the com- pleted Northern Pacific road, and to bring with him his wife, who has not yet visited Washing- ton. Rear Admiral and Mrs. Radford are solourning at the Ebbitt, preparatory to a trip to the Hot Springs of Arkansas for the Admiral’s health. About April they purpose returning to superin- tend the completion of their snug and handsome new Washington residence. The widow and the three daughters of Gen. much consideration during their stay’ at the Ebbitt. One of the daughters Is temporarily an. invalid, and the family party will go for her sake to Florida before returnitig home, remain- | Ing here, however, for several weeks yet. Gen. Robinson, of Ohio, on his return after seeming ignorance of the requirements of naval disctoline, and great consideration and forbear- ance have been shown him by me in view of his Position on board ship. He has been informed of 1s errors and remonstrated with on their repett- tion, but all to no purpose. He has manifested an unwillingness to be directed or controtied,and has resented such action so disrespectfully and tm- pertinently as to make Ignorance doubly inexcus- able. He has been treated with consideration due ‘to the commissioned officers, and has been subjected to such regulations as’ govern them. But he complained at having to obtain my per- mission to leave the ship a8 a restriction upon the itberty of his movements, which he was not accus- tomed to and could not bear; and that in carrying out what he came here to perform, such a restric- tion was very objectionable. When, in order to provide for a continuance of good health and to secure a perfect sanitary condition in our excep- Honally trying circumstances, I ordered the sur eon to make each month such physical examina- tton of officers an¢ men, myself included, as would enable him to report to me in writing teir cond!- tion, Mr. Collins protested against being examined, clatining that he would decide for himself when he wanted medical treatment, and that meanwhile he did not propose to submit his person to experl- ments or to contribute to medical statistles; though upon his error being pointed out he asked and was permitted to witharaw his letter of protest, assert- ing afterward that I had announced that these examinations were for experimental purposes. ‘This gentleman seemed to assume that regula- tlons were made and orders issued to give him per- sonal annoyance and discomfort; and that his obedience was exacted because he was borne upon the muster rolls as a seaman, and his re- marks in connection therewith were usually ex- tremely offensive. (It may be unneceasary, but I would here state that this gentleman’ was never spoken of or referred to in any Way asa seamen; that he lived and messed Jinquired: “Do you mean to imply that I am with me in the cabin, as did the ofivers of the doing anything contrary to naval regulations?” Hie said: “I mean to say you nave no right to talk to me as you do.” I replied: “Yow should not have disobeyed my ssertion. orders.” (1.) He satd: “I will not admit such an I have always carried out your instractions.” (2) Tinquired: (8) “Do you undertake to contradict me, Mr. Collins, and “torsay that I am asserting what 1S not 8:2? <4) He rep ted: “Iisean to say, my dear sir, that I haye not di-ob-ye or violated your order.” (4.) I sald: “But. Mr. Collins, I say you have diso- Deyed or violat'd iy order.” @ promptly aud @nphatically replied: “T say I have not.” 6.) I sald: “Great aNowance has been made for your Ignorance of naval regulations, your position on the ship, and your being so situated for the first time. But you must remember that a com- manding officer is to be spoken to in a respectful manner and with respectful language, and you do hot seem to attend to etther particular.” He replied: “I treat the commanding officer of this ship with all the respect due him as the head of the expedition, but when he charges me with violating an order, (7) I say I have not.” 8.) Tsald: “Do you Suppose you will be permitted to talk to me in that way? Are you beside your- sell?” He replied: “Not at all; I am perfectly calm and céllected, and know what I say.” “And you contradict me flatly in that Have you lost your senses?” He replled: “No, I have not lost my senses. I know what I say.” Iwent on: “When Isoy that by remaining in navy; that he had a'room assigned him In the ward room, and that in every manner he received from the crew the respect patd to an officer). He complained that he was not considered head of a department, and, until corrected, added the title of “sclentitl¢ observer” to the name meteorologist, by which he was known and designated; assu ing generally such an independence of authority and control as could not be tolerated tn any vessel belonging to the navy of the United States. Situated as we were, drifting about tn the tee, and Hable at any monient to a disaster, involving abandonment of the ship, sultable punishment for this gentleman’s offenses, was neither prudent nor advisable. Any ad°quate punishment, whether inflicted by my order, or In pursuance ot the sentence of a summary court martial, would have necessitated a confinement of greater or less duration, which would have been’ detrimental, seriously to health. I had already suMicient anxiety and difficulty in contemplating e bie dragging of one officer in a al hundred miles, the doubt of several others being strong enough to stand the exposure, and the imminence of danger and disaster ex- tending then over fifteen months, and I was not inclined to further add to the invaild Ust and fur- ther diminish my already crippled resources. 80 long as no overt act of violent insubordination presented itself my only remedy seeined to re- port the facts upon my return to the United States and to ask that they receive such attention as to You appears right and proper. Very respectfully, BORGE W. De Lona, Lieutenant U.S.N., commanding. ‘The foregoing 18 a rough draft of a report to be made by me upon my return to the United States. the cabin, as you did to-day, you violate my or- ders, you continue to contradict me.” He answered: “When you say I have violated an order, I say 1 have not.” I then rose, saying: “That 1s quite enough. Circumstanced as we are, the matter can not be conventently dealt with here, but upon the return of the vessel to the United States. @n her reaching some point of communication I shall report you to the Secretary of the N: Meanwhile you will perform no duty tn the ship beyond completing the work called forin :ny written order of Sep- tember 1st.” ‘Throughout the whole interview, Mr. Collins was curt, contemptuous and disrespectful in both lan- guage and bearing, the manner of his answering being more offensive even than the words used. Instead of making suitable replies to my questions anil proper explanations of the violation of my order, he arraigned me for the manner in which the questions were put, and contradicted me flatly when I said he had violated my order. Mr. Danenhower, who left the cabin at_my first question, was in ‘his room, necessarily in a posi- tion to hear the conversation, and I notified him that I should refer to him asa witness. He vol- reered his willingness to have a written state- ment of the occurrence made for his signature while it was fresh in his memory, and I therefore requested Lieut. Chipp to write Such a statement from dictation, as Mr. Danenhower’s eyes, of course, prevented him from doing so himself. Gro. W. DELone, Lieutenant U. S. Navy, Commanding. DECEMBER 7th, 1880.—Upon reflection, and recall- tng as far as possible what was sald, I have to make the following additions to the foregoing memorandum, in the places designated by the numbers 1, 2,3, &c. As to the exactness of the pisces I aim ‘not certain, and there may be some ttle doubt as to the sequence of the words. But as U2 the language being employed. (as similar terms so closely allied as_not to effect the mean- ing by the smallest trifle,) T am absolutely certain, Teonsider that by coming into the cabin as you did to-day, removing your coat lighting your ipe and carrying on a conversation with Mr. anenhower, you took advantage of the 12 o'clock observations to disregard my orders 1n relation to the exercise. 2. And when you say I took advantage of the 12 o’clock observations to disregard your order I say It 13 not so, I will not have you put 8. Wait a moment words in my mouth. 4.

A dispatch from this city to the New York Sun says it is likely that in a few days n case will come before the Probate Court here that wll excite considerable social interest. It hat been known for some time that Commander J. D. Graham, of the United States navy, had practically disowned his daughter, Jennie. The commander did this, as is alleged, because his daughter had refused to obey him. She had been placed in aconvent here which she quitted, and went to the house of her grandmother. Subsequently the young girl went to the house of Chief Engineer Park, where she weeks. Complaint was made to Chandler of the commander's refusal to port the child, and the Secretary sent a letter, of which the following is a copy, to Commander Graham : daughter.

The cases in connection with the shoe store robberies, reported in yesterday's Star, which were begun in the Police Court yesterday, were taken up again to-day. Mr. Moore decided to not prosecute the boy John Ganley, who was arrested for robbing his employer, Mr. H. Wal- ker Tucker, of No. 1923 Pennsylvania avenue, but to prosecute the persons who received the stolen goods from him. The boy was used asa witness for the government. The parties charzed are a colored shoemaker named George Fry. of No. 822 19th street, and John T. Johnson ‘ana Thomas Suttén, oyster dealers. The proceedings yesterday afternoon were as follows: A HEAVY SENTENCE. George Fry, the colored shoemaker, was first put on trial. There were thirteen different charges of receiving stolen goods against the | defendant. A larze pile of shoes were spread ; out on the platform before the cours. Mr, | Tucker stated that the boy was employed asa | messenger in his store. He also identified thir- | teen pair of shoes as property that was stolen from his store. Ganley was put onthe stand, and stated that he has been stealing shoes from his employer for three months. He stated that he had been selling shoes to Johnson, and Fry told him that he heard that he had shoes to sell and expressed a desire to buy some, and he sold | him a great many pairs from 75 cents down. All the shoes were the finest quality. Lieutenant Guy testified to recovering the stolen property from the house of the prisoner. Judge Sneil said he would give the prisoner the extent of the law—six months ia each case, which aggre- gates six anda half years. Mr.’ Moore stated that he had thirteen cases against John T. John- son and also one against Thomas Sutton for re- ceiving stolen shoes from the defendant. The Dickson case came on and these cases had to be continued until to-day. The sentence in this case is the longest ever imposed in the Police court. THE TRIALS TO-DAY. The trial of the other detendants was begun this morning. John T. Johnson, a young col- ored man, was called up to the bar. and also charged with thirteen cases of receiving stolen goods. Mr. L. Browning appeared for the de- fendant. A second large sack full of shoes, boots, patent leather slippers, &c., was emptied on the platform in front of the court. Mr. Tucker identified the property as his. STATEMENT OF THE BOY WHO TOOK THE Goons. Ganley was again called to the stand. He stated that he sold all the property before the court tothe defendant. He first sold a pair of boots to the prisoner for $1. After that Johnson compelled him to bring more stuff by telling him that If he [(witness) didn’t bring him what he wanted he would report the otherrobberiesto his anes) boss. After selling the frst pair of shoes to Johnson, he only received what Johnson chose to give him for the goods, because John- son threatened tohaye hin arrested if ne stopped bringing him shoes. James Coggins testified that the prisoner ad- mitted to him that he concealed the shoes when he heard the boy was arrested. Judge Snell said he would give the defendsat six-months in each case. THE CASE RE-OPENED. The court afterwards reopened the case, and gave the counsel the privilege of consulting with their clients as to whether they would con- sent to a sentence of three years, but if they were going to take the cases upon appeals he would let the present sentences stand. The counsel for the défendants asked that judgment be left open until Monday for them to consider the question. The court complied with the request. AN ATTACHMENT FOR SUTTO! ‘There was one charge agai::st Thomas Sutton, the partner of the last defendant. Sutton was released on $10 collateral, and failed to answer when called-for trial. Mr. Moore said he thought the collateral was insufficient. and he would ask that Sutton be brought in cn attachment. The court ordered tie attachinen to issue. ——————_—-+--—____ The New “Capital.” From the Rochester Deinoerst and Chronicle, Under the new management the Washington Capital has become a splendid newepaper.
