A monument to the great <wedish naturalist, Li unveiled in Btockholm yesterday the 100th anniversary of his death. The Duke d’Ossmea, reputed to be the most powerful and the hautiest nobleman inSpain, palace devoted to the occupancy of the servants who have grown gray in his service. This grandee is noted as the man who respecttully declined an alliance with Eugenie Montijo, afterward Empress of the | French. Temperance promoters have just | been convicted of a great blunder in London. They had opened peo- | ple’s coffee rooms &t low prices ; but | & correspondent wio railed forth on a late terrible night to test their utility, found all the gin palaces | crowded and abiaze with comfort, but the “Peoble’s Cafes” closed, at 8:30 p. m. The excusemade by the managers was that it did not u.fiy" to keep them open after worl ‘hours. The census of Paris s looked for- ward to with much mterest. In 1700 the population numbered 7:0,- 000 inhabitants. Toward the end of theelgnteenth century it had di- minished to 620,000, and continued to decrease until 1801, when it num- bered 546,000, From that tume 1t has steadily risen. 774,338, in 1886 909,128 Twenty years later it reached 1538,618. In | 1860 the aunexatron of all the dis- triots comprised between the old Octroi _boundary and the fortifica- tions had the effect of swelling the number to 1,700,000, and to 1,825,000 m 1866, These additions nearly doubled the ares of the capital. In 1872 the population showed a slight fallivg off compared with 1870, being 1,851,792, against 1,900,000 1n the latter year. German newsp:pers are denounc- ing the enigratiou agents who_do coy emigrants to Antwerp and Rot- terdam, and there fleece them of their money and cause untold hard- ship and misery. One way 1n which | they despoil their victims, who fre- quently have just money enough to pay their passage, is to get them to port by false representations weeks before a vessel salls, and force them into boarding bouses with which the agents are in league, and where the helpless wanderers are robbed 1n every form. Tickets are advertised | at very low prices which, it after- ward appears, do not Inciude nu- wmerous sundries tbat more than double the cost. These emigration agents were driven out of Hamburg by the prosecuting attorney of that city, bul they have found a new ha- ven in Holland. There are six universities in Rus- sia—two in Bt. Petersburg, and one each m Moscow, Kassan, Odesea, and Kharkol. In 1866 there were in all of them 3,561 students. In 1871 the number had increased to 5801, but 1876 it had diminished again to 4,392. Asa rule Russian students have no resources of their own, and are obliged to give lessons to support themselves At Moscow many of them, especially the med- ieal students, are said to be in & igerable condition. From 1870 to 1878, while 8,224 students finished their course of studies, 2,011 were compelled to desist without takicg their degrees. { the amount of from $100 to $200 vearly, Lave been founded by the Government and by private liberal- ity, but the number is still far below the number of students who have ue means of subsistence but misera- bly paid lessons TiE aged Senator Christisncy did not bring his young wife to Wash- ington this winter, and this is what huppened to him.

SELF- CONVIGTED Perjury and Hitchcock’s Private Secretary, | When Forced to the Witness | Stand, Tells He Paid | $600 in Money Re- | ceived from Hitch- cock as a bribe to Flannigan. | The Work was Done in the Omaha Post Office. | The Anti-Hitcheoek Men Mold a Can- cus and 48 of Them sign a Pledge to Support Saunders To-day. [MIDNIGHT TELEGRAPH.] Special Dispateh to nJ« Lane , Jan. 17, The followinig e s oopy. of tho | testimony pudlished in the Even- irg Globe Hitcheock claimed to have in his poscession & letter written by Wr. Irving, suthorizing Brizgs and Saunders to draw on the Treasury of the B. & M. for any amount nec- cessary to secure the election of either one of them. It was claimed that T.M. Marquette had further authorized the scheme by endors- ing his initials on the letter. Hitehcock was attempting to make useof this document to ,bull-dore tepresenatives. Marquette was [sent ! for and on makng his appesraroce the whole thing to Hitohcock’s face as a forgery and de- manded to see the pretended letters which Hiteheock refused to show. Steps were then immediately taken to procure evidence as to the truth of the charge and to show who the forger was, which is shown by the following afidavits to be J. D, Flannigan, formerly a B. & M. em- ployee. Hitchcoek should be a candidate for the Btate penitentiary instead of the United States senate. Neither the Pomeroy scandal in Kansas, nor anything in American politics is a parallel to this otrage on decency, Read the evidance and juage for yourselves. They give the evidence of Briggs &c. Here 1 what W. Ir- ving said : THE TPSTIMONX. W. Irving, superintendent ot the B. & M., being duly sworn says the letters, which are in the words ana figures, to-wit : 7o W. Irving: DEAR BIR—Mr. Sloan will hand you this and’ aleo ask for my sl- ary. He has advanced it to me by paying my board bill, etc., and that with a few hundred dollars I bave got from hitehoock for two forged letters will about see me to Eng- land again. I was down to hard- pan, and this accounts for my va- gavies. Hitch is going to show my affidacit and the letters I made to T. M. M., and he is going to bull- doze the B. & M. into supporting him. I wish him the devil'sown | lack with the Democrats. Excuse iy faults if you can. A thousand dolls for a couple of hour's writing, {and that purely of an inventive character, is really a temptation. Respecttully, J. D. FLANNIGAN. P. B.—1 guess I had better not fell you where I sail from. Zo0J, M. O’ Grady, Car Accountant: Drar Bix: Will youoblige meby | giving Mr. Sloan any letters that , may arrive for me in the next few weeks; he will send them to me; ' the Black Hille fever is goneup, and 1 am off for merry England, ¢ old boy. J. D. F. On Monday morning, January 15, Mr. Flannigan did not appear at his desk, and a messenger was sent to the St. Charles hotel after Flanni- who on returning said hecould find him. Geo. W. Holdrige, being sworn, says that he s assistant superinten- dent ofthe B. & M. road; tnat he is well acquainted with the .pen- manship of J. D. Flannigan,having received frequent communications from the superindent in the haud- writing of smd Flannigan, and that the letters are written in the hand- writing of J.D Klaunigan. T. M. Marquelte, sworn, says that he has never given his assent to the using of any money, or the | honoring of draftson the B & M., for the purpose of aiding the elec- tion or defeat of any person for United States Senator as the suc- cessor of P. W. Hitchcook, and never received any authority from Perkins or any one else to draw drafts or uso moaey. He further says that the letters “T. m. M.,” claimed to be endorsed on ihe let- ters in the possession of Hitchoock, purporting to have been written by Mr. Irving, wer¥ put there without his consent. An_ investigating committes, to prove the “trué inwardness” of the | Hitchooek letter of infamy, was ap- | pointed in the House yesterday, and | conssts of Moore, Anyan, Gibson, Pitonpatnick and Clark. Bupe Adams, Hitch's private secre- tary, was before the com- mittee this atrerncon and testified | ON OATH that he paid J. W. | Flanigan SIX HUNDRED DOL- | LARE FOR THE ArFIDAVIT and pretended letter, and that he paid this amount out of Hiteheock's money 1 the judges room in the government building at Omaha.

M. | by the House and Benate respec- tively, have been taking testimony in the charge that tie B. & M. R. R. 18 using money to secure the election of Briggs or Saunders. The evidence, as given by Adams, Hitchcoek’s private secretary, is that Adams gave J. D. Flannigan, formerly an employee of tbe B. & M., six hundred dollars to obtain possession of the papers, which are said to show thc company to be using money to sid Briggs or baun- ders, and to make 2fidavit to ther correctness. Flanuigan 1oft the country as soon as the transaction was completed. The evidence of the B. & M. fends to prove the papersa forgery by Flannigan, and experts at recogniz- ing handwriting, before the Senate committee, proclaimed the signa- tures frauds. Briggs makes affiidavit that he has never received any communi- cation from Irving, or any other person, authorizing him to draw upon the B. & M. for money for any purpose, and never having drawn a draft, or pever having recerved evena pass during the Senatorial contest, and denounces all the charges false and malicious iv every particular. Saunders makes a similar affida- vit,and swears he has never had communication, written or verbal, with the officers or any persons con- nected with the road coscerning the pro rat bill or anything connected therewith. Irving swears to hav- ing a letter from Klanuigan in which the latter says he forged the letter and received one thousand dollars for it, and gave as hisexcuce that he was down to hard pau, and that he was off for England. Fur- ther, both Irving and Holdbridge swear that Flannigan was an expert in counterfeiting signatures. Mar- quette swears that the initials “T. M. M.,” endorsing the letter in the hands of Hitchcork, are forged. The committee consider the sub- ject further to-morrow morning. Everything is red-hot here over the turn the case has taken. Line, VERY LATEST. Lincoln, January 18, 1 a. m.— Theanti-Hitcheock men have con- solidated upon Saunders.

It is ascer- tained, however, from & member of the committee, that this is not true, and that no satisfactory conclusion has yet bean reached. ~ There will be some decis1ve action to-day, and the situation is regarded by mem- bers of the committee as very ait- ieal. The preponderance of opinion outside tne committee is that the committee will at the last moment fail to agree.

The man, or rather tha image of man whosent the dispatch and wrote to Mr Perkins that had received a sufficient cons ide to ses aud that he, the employee, was intending to return (o England at ouce. 1t was to uproot the whole {rans- action that Moore introduced his resolution (o this effect, that as re- ports had been circulated to the ef- fect that a great and powerful rail- road eompany had offered to furn- ish money to certain candidates for the U. 8 Senate to assist m secur- ing an election ; therefore be it “re- solved, That a eomm! of five be appointed to investigate the whole matter.”” Such is the sub- stance of the resolution as it pre- vailed, and Messrs. Moore, Anyan, Fitehpatrick, Clark and Gibson ‘wete appointed the committee. There is no longer any doubt about the infamous eoalition be- tween Hitcheock, Miller and Til- den. E. A. Allen, chairman of the Democratic State Committee, and other leading Democrats, are here, bringing great pressure upon the Democratic members for Hitcheock. A Democratic Senator from Douglas county, who refuses to rat- ify the corrupt compact, confirms the charge of the BEE. Senator Crawford, who has always bitterly opposed Hitchcock and never yet voted for a Republiean, says: ©I may vote for a Republican,” refer- to save my country another, Demo- cratic member.” He said to-asy. « will vote for the devil if he will help my party. The Democratic members are almost equally diyid- ed on this question. Twelve or thirteen sre firmlv oppos:d to the coaliton under circum- stances. They say they have no f:ith in a corrupt par- ty trsitor like Hitchcock. During the adjournment to day Biteheock borrowed the Governor’s private room, and the weak-kneed were led in there to be bolstered up With regard to the forgery, men here are of but one opinion, 1. e.: That the superintendent of the B. & M., had he made such a proposition s the be likely to employ & secretary to wtite up the propasi- tion, as well s leave it in the pos- session of the clerk. The genaral absurdity of the thing, if the ciar- acters of Briggs and Saunders ¢id not in themselves repudiate suc’s a damnable scheme, is enough to prove its falsity. ——————— NATIONAL SURGITAL INSTUTE OF INDIANAPOLIS, IND.
