Stephens has seen fit to put his dried up carcass in the path of the Dem- ocratic party. opposed the resolution ordering the investigation of the great frauds in Florida and Louisiana, and, although nearly every oth er one of the Democratic Congressmen were finally made to toe the mark, he refused to vote, saying that he was "paired," but that if he had not been "paired," he would have said "no." This is a good occasion to remind Mr. Stephens, and others interested, that once upon a time there was a "war between the States." Mr. Stephens was the second in authority in the de facto government that tried to break up the Union. is greatly mistaken if he thinks that people in the North have forgotten, that fact. ought to remember that the only difference betwe en himself a nd Jeff. Davis, i3 that the one was forgiven and the other was not. Mr. Ste- phens is undoubted ly a learned student of the constitution, and when he keeps himself within the lines of constitutional law, the GLOBE as great respect for his opinions. But he will find that the people of the North have no sympathy whatever with this latest attempt of his to start a new rebellion against honesty, de- cen cy and loyalty. Mr. Stephens should know that "loyalty" does not now mean, as it did some short time ago, a slavish ac- quiescence in the orders of Republican leadeis. The other rebellion was at least not in the interest of fraud. The North does not want a new rebellion in the interest of fraud, and southe rn Democrats will, if they put the question to the test, discover that Northern Democrats are as much in favor of the con- stitutional union as they were when they filled the ranks of the army that put down the secessionists.

One of the most peculiar ideas growing out of the Republican muddle in this Con- gressional district is the statement so often reiterated, that it is unfair to Dr. Stewart to call the convention at such an early day, be- cause it deprives him of an opportunity to make a canvass. It is quite tree that it is often, in fact we might say generally, considered essential that the candidate for re-election shall make a canvass for re-election. I is a custom, however, which would be more honored in the breach than in the observ- ance. If the people select a man to discharge a public du ty his work is specified, and his place fixed. If he attends to his business, the people know it, a nd can govern themselves accordingly. The post of duty, according to the ideas of many, is in striving to be re-elected a nd neglecting the office you were chosen to fill. I would be well to determi ne whether men are selected to discharge certain duties, or mere ly to per- petuate themselves in office. If the former, it is immaterial when a convention is held. If the latter, all of the details should be arranged satisfactory to the incumbent, and'detrimen- tal to every one else. I is a question whether the officers are to work for the benefit of the public or simply duvote themselves to indi- vidual matters to keep themselves in power. Perhaps that is what we pay taxes forto gi ve some one a chance to keep an office for one term and make money enough to secure a re election. They Are all Three-card Monte Trick- sters."

TROUBLE WITH THE "THREE VAR1) MONTE TRICKSTERS." The row among the Republicans (three card monte tricksters) does not terminate in a moment as some of the faithful hope d. A an impartial observer the GLOBE con- cludes that it will not terminate for "some time to come. The Washburn forces have gained an advantage, and an effort is being made to bulldoze them from their position. If they yield, all is lost for them, for they stamp themselves as guilty of the base trickery which their opponents allege again st them. I is one thing to be guilty of a'base trick and another thing to advertise yourself as a self-confessed "three-card-monte trick- ster." The trick played by Washburn and Fletcher last week is as old as the Republi- can party in Minnesota. I was no more and no less than following the general rules of the Republican party. That is equivalent to* Baying it was base and dishonorable, but the men who howl should keep silence. They have simply been beaten at their own game. Ten years ago it was very nice to give Hennepin coun- ty double the number of delegates allowed to Ramsey. That was when the "three-card monte tricksters" ad a different end to serve. It is immensely cheeky for the Re- public an politici an to squirm at all and if they should bulldoze Washburn into a confession of rascality when he was merely following his party precedent, it would be surprising. Hence the GLOBE cannot divine the "peace" for which Fletcher prays.

How the Opium Vice is SpreadingClean- ling up Some Big YieldsDan Castello, the Circus Clown's Luck. [Correspondence of the GLOBE DEADWOOD, T., May 12th.Of all the many vices peculiar to this remote section none are more pernicious than that of opium smoking which is becoming more a nd more prevalent each day, permeating society to its very core, and dragging into a bondage of the most abject kind, peop le .of every walk in life and of every age and sex. Fully as I anticipated surprise at finding a large patronage from people of nominal respect ability, I did not approach even Ihe mini mum of truth as I found it upon visiti ng a denor smoke housein company with a friend, last night. The building, located in the heart of Chinatown, Main street, is a cheaply constructed, low, two story affair, with windows protected by heavy shutters, and a door of massive planks. Ingress is free to all. The lower floor contai ns a large room, "office" and two smoking rooms, and is destitute of furniture save a long deal table covered with chi na matting, a stove, couple of benches, and a couple of bamboo platforms or beds for the occupancy of smokers. A dark, crooked stairway, so low that the visitor receives many a bump in making the ascent, conduct to the floor above which is divided off into eight rooms abo ut 6x9 feet in dimensions each, with very low ceilings and without ventilation except such as is secured through the cracks and crevices of the hastily built structure. A platform abo ut two feet high, and extending across the rooma couple of pillows re sembling old fashioned footstools, and a slight drapery a Id lambrequin is the only furniture. The visitor unceiemoniously enters, quietly selects his room, throws himself upon the platform and awaits an at tendant who speedily appears bearing a lamp similar to those found upon the counte rs of cigar dealers, a card with about a spoonf ul of opium upon it, a nd a pipe. The latter (suggestive of an Indian calumet) consioting of a wooden stem two and one half feet long with no graduated mouthpiece, and a very large bowl whose cavity will scarcely admit a knitting needl e. The attendant reclines, facing the customer, places the lamp be tween them, and with a piece of steel wire gathers up a quanity of opium about the size of a kernel of corn, which he rolls upon the face of the bowl frequently passing it over the lamp until the gum is properly cooked when it is forced into the pipe a nd the latter passed over to the custome r. There is a peculiar "knack" in smoking that can be acquired only by practice, hence a more ludicrous sight than that presented by a person taking his pipe.cannot be imagined. The gum burns only when held close to the lamp, and only when aided by an incessant sucking upon the part of the smoker, so, should the latter adopt the method of tobac co smokers who enjoy as great luxury in emitting as inhaling the warm vapor he would make but slight progress. The flavor and odor of opium is very obnoxious to mo, and is, I fancy to every one not addicted to its use, but, judging by the testimony of many victims, a taste is easily cultivated a nd forever retained. There is little potency in one, two or three "pipes" beyond the crea tion of an abominable twang, while oil hands can consume two, thr ee and frequent ly as many as ten cardsor fifty pipes before they pass into that elysian conditio ns of which inveterates so loudly prate. The best and most numerous patrons of the house are not, as many supposefthe Chinese. O the contrary, one of that race is seldom seen indulging in the gum. This may be per reason of the expensefifty cents per card, or, for a sufficiency, five and six dollars but I incline to the opinion that they care for it only as a source of revenue, and as such it is very prolific. The eight rooms were crowdedthree and four customers in each who rotated from spectators to smokers as the pipes were ex hausted and replenished. I one room I found a woman who holds her head with the highest, a nd in society passes as a lady sans reproach. her side rested, in lieu of a Chinaman, a "way up" (financially) miner who rolled the gum with dexterity rivalling the most experienced John. Sitting on the edge of the platform patiently waiting their turn, were a Chicago drummer, a merchant of this city and a theatrical celebrity. The next room was occupied by variety perform ers, and one or two gambler s. I the ad joining apartme nt were a bevy of cyprians, adepts in rolling as well as smoking. An other room contained a Bohemian, an ex county official, a nd a merchant, whi le in all of the departments I found others of like character, all laughing, chatting, joking, smoking, or arguing in favor of or depre cating the iniquity that all were practicing. The house is always open, and some of the rooms are constantly in use, but it is not until one or two o'clock in the morning, when a lull occurs in gambling, and other resorts are closed, that the great rush sots i n. From that time until morning the build ing is packed, every pipe is in service, a nd the atmosphere pravealent with smoke from the burning drug. The better class of peo ple here have long discussed the evil and efforts for its suppression, but as yet no action has been taken. It is to be hoped, however, that something will be done a nd that right speedily to eliminato "the foul and most unnatural crime" that now curses society, and is becoming more and more prevalent each day. W have had a week of lovely weather much to the benefit of the entire country. High waters have subsided, roads have be come passable, travel has consequently in creased, mining operations have been re sumed, agricultural pursuits are thriving, immense quantities of long delayed freight have rrrivod, and, as a result, every body is busy and very happy. Since my last letter several important sales have been made, the most notable being that of the Pierce lode by S. R. Guryinn to a California party for the pretty little sum of $60,000. This prop erty is located near the famous Homestake mine with which it will be conjointly worked. It is marvellously rich as shown by the fact that a clean up for a seven day's run on Homestake are (which is of like character with the Pierce) yielded 243 ounces, or about $4,000. DAN CASTELLO'S LUCK. Everybody has heard of Dan Castello, one of the most successful circus managers that ever bought a van. Well, Dan came to the Hills abo ut two years ago and after many ups a nd downs, by which ho secur ed and lost much of the best property in the Hill s, he concluded to shake all dust from his heels and return to his beautiful home at Racine, Wisconsin. But a strong hankering po s sessed the old boy to make one more effort to capture something good that he could hang on to, so he skirmished around among the mines and finally "spotted" the Red Jacket lode, which was then poorly develop ed, a nd which prospected anything but good. Still location was in its favor, and Dan bonded the property for $60,000 and put a force of men at work cutting a tunnel. Three days later a vein was struck, and from that time to the present, over a week the men have been working in a solid mass of ore that shows free gold in every piece. Dan became jubilant, and, when Davis, the THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE, MONDAY5 assayer, reported as the result of a test, that the rock produced $94.66 per ton, and would hare "run" higher had not a quanti ty of gold dropped from the specimens upon the screen whe re they we re caught and pre vented from passing iriko the refiner, Dan went into ecstasy that deprived him of sleep for 4 8 hours. His assay was the largest of any yet made in the Hills. NOTABLE YIELDS. Several notable clean ups have occurred during the past week, both from quartz and placer operations. The Fairview, in a ten day's run, yielded $8,000Hidde Treasure, seven day's ru n, $3,500 Alpha, eight day's run, $3,100. Gulch mining has not fairly begun, although Jack McAlu r, who has taken more gold ut of Deadwood than any other person, has so far opened up his Number Eleven above Discovery, at the mouth of Sawp it gulch, that out of the six clean-ups for the week, the lowest amount secured was 36 ounces, the highe st 42 ounces, or an aver age ot 39 per day, which, at 17 per ounce, yielded $663 for every twenty-four hours' work. This claim was purchased by Jack last year for $1,500. FBONTEEB CELEBRITIES. Two frontier celebrities, viz: Frank Gran ard, Crook's Chief of Scouts, and Yellow stone Kelly. Miles' right-hand man, were in town a few days ago, the former with a squad of soldiers in search of horse thieves whom they ad trailed from Fort McKinney, and the latter accompani ed by three soldiers, prospecting for a contemplat ed military road from the hills to Forts Caster and Keogh on the Yellowstone river. They received much attention from the citizens of th is a nd neigh bori ng camps. POLITICS. A outsider would natmally suppose that polities would excite but little interest in communities like that of Deadwood, but I find that as great attention is given thereto by the miners a nd merchants of th is golden gulch, as by people in the States, and now that tbe time approaches for ter ritorial conventions and the nomi nation of candidates for dele gate to Congress, I hear the same rumb ling s, and as much telle and speculation as usually precede political campaigns else where. There has be en but one election in the Hills, and as party lines were not strictly drawn, its result gives but little by which to arrive at the piesent status of the two great pailies. I am inclined to think, however, that the Democrats are in the majority by about four hundred in this (Lawrence) coun ty, and a few more in the entire Hills coun try, and that if they will properly reorgan ize by deposing two or three of their present leaders, and place men at the front who can command a little respect from their own following at least, they will be alle to elect a delegate from their number, and also sweep the field at the county election next fall. They were successful last year, not so much through their superiority in numbers, as through a disaffection a nd lack of organization among Republicans, neither of which facts have been remedied, but an equalization has been produced by the Democracy who elected an unworthy ticket, one that hss been going from ad to worse in the performanceor non-performanceof its duties throughout its incumbency. But one man on the en tire ticket, (McKinnis, register of deeds) would stand a ghost of a show for re-election should the party be foolish enough to re nominate it. I could make several very bad citationsa few of recent mal-ad ministralionif necessary, but such are well known to every person here, a nd would be of but little interest abroad, still these hack s, some of whom have received the g. b., a nd others are equally deserving of similar treat ment, are laying wires which if successfully manipulated will involve the county in ever lasting disgrace, and unle ss their schemes are frustrated by immediate action of the party, I shall feel called upon to make the expose.

Postmaster-General Key as received from Paris a letter from Jim Tyner, his first as sistant, who went abroad to attend ths meet ing of the postal congress. Tyner says: "We are really thirsting for home news. Our latest newspaper bears date of April 18th. Cable telegrams in European newspapers refer only to the monetary affairs in Ameri ca because so many European capitalists hold United Stat es securities. Reports of our Congressional proceedings aie confined to the tariff and financial bills. Our politics don't seem to interest th is peop le at all. One of our New York dailies will devote more space in a sing le issue to telegrams from this side of the ocean than any European daily will to general American news in a whole month: and when newspa pers over here clip from an American news paper the article is almost certain to spread before th is public some scandal like Mrs. Tilton's confession, or some rumor tarnish ing the dignity of some of our officials. Al though they recognize our greatness, a nd wonder at our thrift and growth, yet they on this side do like to sneeringly allude to U3 as a lot of grown-up foundlings." With refer ence to the postal congres s, Mr. Tyner says that the most important business done at the preliminary meeting was the decision that delegates shou ld appear at the regular open ing in swallow-tail coats and white chokers. Charley Johnson a "Three-card Trickster." Republican Terror. [Cincinnati Enquire.] The Republican terror in the face of the Potter resoluti on in the House is exceeding ly significant. The Republicans of the House resort to extraordinary measures to defeat a resolution that simply asks for an investi gati on of condu ct generally believed to be a fraud. A secretary of the treasury a nd a minist er to France we re named in connec ti on with the matter, but Mr. Potter plainly said that he had no intention to disturb the Presidential title. His resolution was not introduced for that purpose. The unseating of President Hayes is not seriously medi tated anywhere. But the world knows the Florida and Louisiana frauds. Democrats are foolish to endeavor to convince people of what they already know. Republicans are vastly more fooli sh to tremblingly seek to stop a simple inquiry. T.

"V A Woman Chained for Months in a Space of a Few FeetCnred of Insanity Only to be Tortured Into Madness Again. [New Orleans Democrat.] Some da ys ago information was received that in a house near Broad street there was a girl chained hand and foot, a nd had been for some three months, and in pursuance of this the reporter started on his quest accom panied by Judge Southworth and A. DeFon blanque, the British consul at th is port, who volunteered out of pure humanity. The reporter got out of the Canal stie et cars at Dorgenois street, and going up that stopp ed at the corner of Pal myra to look for the habitation wherein it was said that the girl ad been confined. O Palmyra, two doors from Dorgenois street, it stoo d. From a hasty glance at its exterior a nd surroundings, it might have be en taken for one of Quilp's retreats. It was a dilapidated one-story house containing two rooms, standing back a short distance from the street. The f.^ut door was found to be locked, but a w.ndow adjoini ng was easily opened, a nd through it an entrance was gain ed to the huase. While the party were endeavoring to get admission into the back room, the proprietor appeared, and, on being informed of the mission, opened the fiont door. The front room bore out the impre s sio ns formed from a view of the outside. I confusion around were the remnants of what had once been'a set of mahogany furniture. The whole room look ed like some store-room of a Krook who went off in Bleak House in a blaze of spontaneous combustion. Passing through this the door to the other room was opened. The party started to n ter it, but instinctively drew back. A stench such as only can once be smell ed drove them back. The fetid odor of THE CHABNEL HOUSE, with an addition of a forgotten vault, could only approach it. It was sickening, and the party could only endure it after a side win dow had been opened and a partial ventila tion obtained. The proprietor ushered them in. was a man of about sixty-five years, with hair of light gray a nd a face that seemed to have lost every trace of the softer lines. Bright gray eyes threw out now and then flashes ot light that soon faded away, whil st nervous, tremulous lips betrayed much excitement and emo tion. said his name was Samuel Barnes, a nd he had at one time been a prosperous merchant on Poydras street. ad two sons, one Charles R., and the oth er Alfred S. Barnes. When questioned he made a state ment in which he frequently contradicted himself. said his daughter was thirty one years of age, a nd had been crazy for some time. About throe months ago he went to the city insane asylum and found that she was well and took her out. After he ad taken her ut she used to go to mar ket 'with him a nd he lp him at his vegetable stand at Poydras market, but he found he would have TO CHAIN HEB. S he went to the asylum and borrowed a pair of handcuffs, and chained her in the room to cure her. couldn 't exactly state how long she had been so chained. At one time he said it was only a month, a nd at another it was five months since he borrow ed the handcuffs. When asked-who cared for her he said he did. went to market very early in the morning, and it was some times 3 o'clock in the afternoon when he got home. During this time she was chain ed up in her room, with no ventilation but a half opened window, and without a soul near her. When questioned abo ut the bruises on her back he said she must haye gotten them by falling down on the floor. nev er ad whipped heronly ke pt her chained. The leporter, after light had been admit ted into the room, in company with Mr. De Fonblanque and Judge Southworth, exam ined the surrounding s. I the far corner, firmly nailed against the wall, was a small wooden bench about four and one-half feet in length and very narrow. From a hole in the wall hung a chain not more than three feet in length, which would allow the pris oner to stand upright, but not to lie on the floor. About eight feet from the ben ch was an old mahogany bed, on which was piled a mass of PUTBEFXING BAGS and an old mattress. Here within a circle of three feet ad th is unfortunate girl passed the last three months, naked a nd without anj thing to lie on, a nd if she ad ad it without the power to reach it. While the party were examining the room so great was the stench they had to with draw to the open air, the lungs not being able to stand the noisome effluvia that came from the rags and floor. O the ceiling there were broad splashes of filth as high as a man's head and covering a space ten feet square. The room had been washed by the father that morning, as he said he wanted to clean it up after the girl had been carried back to the insine asylum, but all of his labors ad been ineffectual in removing the results of the girl's long confinement.

She went to the house, and no one answering her calls to open the gate she entered, but could gain no en trance into the house. Passing along the side gallery she managed to op en a side shut ter, and then a sight greeted her eyes that caused her to step back in horror. Stand ing like a statue on the floor, in manacle s, nude as when first born, was Sarah Barnes. The chain that bound her was stretched its full length, but would let the terrible figure go no further. The face was not visible. ALL THAT COULD BE SEEN were two vacant eyes and the mouth. Ail the features, everythi ng that would show the fo rm to be that of a human creature, weie hidden in a mask of filth. Her hair was matted and stood oat on end, whi le over her body the vermin leisurely crawled. At that time there was nothing in the room but a wash tub. but later it seems the father had moved an old bed in to gi ve a semblance of comfort to the apartment, as thus it was found when the reporter visited the place. Mr s. Grimes called in a police officer and then with her own hands prepared the girl with a covering so that she was fit to be seen. She was taken to the insa ne asylu and cared for. Thither, in order to gain the full particulars, the reporter wen t, After the party had entered the gate of the asy lum they were met by Capt. Monnier and his assistant, Henry Hamilton, who willingly escorted them through the building, al though the hour was quite late. Sarah Barnes was a'jked for, and, after passing down the broad gallery the fema le depart ment was entered, a nd in a clean and well kept cell she was found, standin g, as de scribed by the ladies who ad first seen her, with her eyes closed, whilst on her countenance the re was a most placid expression. The keepers approached her tenderly a nd called her by name, without getti ng any lesponse. Perfectly immovable she stood, her face pale and without expres sion, whilst her limbs seemed to be barely able to support her. She was, both in figure and face, wha t, under other circumstances, would have been a beautiful woman, but long suffering had wrought TEBBTBLE CHANGES. The reporter approached iier and called her by name, but there was still no respons e. Mr. a Fonblanque then, to totreii some key that might vibrate in her memory, called the name of Mrs. Grimes.

The assistants at the asylum, when asked about Sarah, said that (when her father ad taken her away) she was as healthy a looking girl as could be seen. She was fat and hearty, and could converse rationally on any subject. S kindly were her feelings toward the keepers a nd inmates of the asylum it was her habit every Sunday to visit there and bring fruit and cakes to her late unfor tunate companions. She repeated these visits frequently, and seemed to enjoy the delight of the unfortunates at her presents. Capt. Monnier stated that she was perfect ly rational duri ng these visits, a nd he thought she would never again become an inmate of the institution. MINNESOTA NEWS.
