In .Mound City, on tho 22d day of this
month, I was g'oing down towards tho
ears and 1 met Mathuw Donahue, who
hudjutt come in on the train. I said
"hello! -Mat, whero are you going?" He
said "I'm going down to Henry Carter's;
l m going to suo Munn tor that jHOO." I
mid "ulf right! ,1 11 go with you.
Mr. Donahue wa entirely sober when I

when tho papert were prepared wo wont

Munn owes mo tho money." Mr. Donuhuo
then held up liUhand and was sworn to tlio

all this time Mr. Donahuo was duly sober,
had not been in a saloon uflr his arrival
In town and before ho swore, and know- per
fectly woll what hu was doing. This is tho
truth" about this matter, as 1 know ot my
own personal knowledge."
Now, here is evidence that, bofoio
tho taking of the oath, and contempo
raneously with tbo act, Donahuo was
sober, and was conscious uf tlio full
force of bis couduot. But this is not
all. After making tlio aflidavit and
instituting suit against Munn, Donahuo

fact that he bad commenced suit against

We might produce a jiage ,of such
tostinlnny, but what wo bnvfi given is !
siiiricieiit to convince any unprejudiced
uiind tlmt Donaliuc "Was not drunk but
duly sober and conscious." The wit-iif-sus
are nil of unimpeachable verac
ity. Why, then, did he sweir as he did
iu tho counter affidavit '.' This iuc.
lion brings us to tho second isue;
ii- the second allulavit outaineil in
-a fair nud honorable tnaniicr, or by
'uinlue inlluenee' uud duress?' We
have no doubt the young man was tain
peicd with threatened with bs of
employment paid I And, iu support
of this assertion, -we point to tho fact
that, at the time of making the counter
affidavit, bo was excited, frightened,
and acted like a man under durus.-;
that he is now guarded from (hu ap
proach of Democrats; uml that, In a
brief conversation with Jhvyer uud
Cain, nf Mounds .Junction, hu said be
had made the second oatli because ho
was threatened and forced to do it, und
that, when be could get away into better

Now, as wo wish to be fortified as we

facts point to the conclusion Hint undue

him, ntid that be actually perjured him
self in tbo interest of ltadicalifin.
And subsequent declarations of
Donahue uud other facts go to sustain
Ijiis conclusion. At Mounds Junction

he wanted was an opportunity to

Mr. Muuu took Donahue iu a room und i

I held back on him, and Dually concluded
to suo for it. Hu spoke about suing Munn
often before Munn wat u candidate for
Congress.
NiiiilinliiK l'l
Here is the whole case; and the evi
dence shows, that Hrodie took Donahue
to MuuuV substitute office, in lslio ,
that Muuu promised Hrodie $100 which
he never paid ; that be promised Dona
hue ?:!()(); that Donahue said, since bis
di-chargu from tbo service, he bad
not been paid , that he told Hrodie, be
fore Munn beeainoa candidate for Con-irrc-Sj
that bo would sue for the money
due tohimj'tha't he did ntie, mailing
affidavit at the time that Muiiii bad
withheld the bounty niouuy wrongfully ;
that at the time of 'making the affidavit
and commencing the suit he was sober
and ctitiM'iotis of -his acts;1 that after
making the nllidavit and (-outiiu-nciug
the suit,. luv, told Sjipjilry ciljitORs Abaubu
had done so; that, at thu time ot mak
ing the counter ullidavit, he shod tears,
was very luucii excited, und dooit-d
himself very much liko u man acting
under ,du.resjS; that, after making the
counter affidavit, ho told citiicns iu
cllect, that ho had'sworn to an untruth
ful HtattMin'iif ; and that, since that
time, ho has been carelully kept from
thu approach of any Democrat, and has
not beeu permitted tu uiako ti statement
of the (acts surrounding his conduct.
With these facts before us, we are
forced to the conclusion, that, to cover
up the iniquity of their candidatu for
Congress, thu Hadiealsjhave beeu guilty
of subornation of perjury, If they can
find any toiufoii iu contemplating this
liiesistiblo truth, they are .welcome and
have our hearty congratulations.
