The evidence given to this commit tee by scores of witnesses, from both the Republican and Democratic par lies, bus proven nothing. Tip) prin ciple on whii'li the Committo was ap pointed is about the oulv laudable feature of tlio whole affair. So far as Ihelgood derived therefrom is con cerned the result has proven to be all fog and smoke mid no game. We havo spent iiu appropriation ot about 125.000 on this investigation. The people pay this most assuredly. Mr. 1'otler and his associates have been receiving their regular salaries in ad dition, so that the cost to the country of this investigation has been about 150.000. What good has it done? Thrown air additional suspicion on John Sherman that he purchased the Louisiana Returning Board voles, but proves '.nothing The committee and the country have learned t lint there is grouini for the belief that thero is "something rotten in Den mark," but where and what, who knows ? We have from the very first opposed the work ot this committee, believing that the Republicans were entirely too shrewd to be caught in rascality and that the Demo ru's were too stingy and woak minded to effect any such arrangement as is laid at their door. There are good reasons to believe that the Southern Return ing Boards were bought witli a price but then modern economy scientific ally teaches that in politics all is fair, as in love and war, and should this committee havo been able to provo the Republicans guilty it would have amounted to nothing in our tavor; the purchaser would have- been act ing on his own responsibility or something of that kind and the great National party would have su lie red not a whit more than it did when Grant turned the convicted whiskey thieves out of tlio penitentiaries.

At tho commencement of (lie late war she was dwelling with her Imp py family in Lousiana. enjoying all the comforts of a magnificently 'fur nished home, having weiiith and sta tion, health and afllnenco, nothing was lacking to make her a Queen of the Sunny South. But possessing a heart of natural sympathy, a head of wonderful wis dom and a hand of Horciilancan power she at once turned her atten tion toward alleviating the burdens of her Soul hern Confederacy. There were at home hundreds of women to administer cheer to the "sacred cause," but, looking further into the depths of philosophy, she conceived the idea and immediately decided to use her powers in alleviating the suf ferings of that unfortiiuaio Rebel soldiery confined in tho dungeons of Northern prisons, as captives of war, Sbo therefore provided herself liber ally with means and made her home in Chicago during the first of the year. 1802. Her house was made the homo of tlioae Southerners who obtained passes to visit their friends confined within tho various prisons of Chi cago and the islands of the Lakes, iler time was spent in the interests of the Confederacy, tho' to the world the fact was unknown. It was this philanthropic woman, who gave iilil to many citizens not only of Chris tian county, but of tho whole South, In forwarding provisions and cloth ing to half starved and naked friends within prison. It was Mrs. Judge Morris, who 6iitl'ered the hardships of frequent arrets by Union spies and detectives. But undaunted by threats, imprisonments and hardships her course was secretly, though per sistently, pursued. It was she who entertained, in Chicago, several of our personal lricnds of this city, and enabled them to obtain a personal in terview wilh a sickcucd and starv ing Southern soldier. It was she, who afterward furnished regularly money, clothing and provisions to this, imprisoned nobleman. It was she who thus spent Hire e years of her life in the actual tervico of her coun try. Her name can not bo recorded too carefully in the Valhalla of icinalc memories. ' Fairview. Ey. , : .

It has been reported that the firm ot Hicharilson, Jainesom A 0,1. had dissolved partuemhip, but it is a mis take and they expect to continue their bUHlnei8 through tho year. Tho young men of this place since the bird luw was out. have been shoot ing (or at least shooting at) blass Bulls. We have no doubt, but what some of them at no distant dav will be rivals of the noted shot liogardus. We are glad to leurh that Bethel j College; of Itussellville, is in such a flourishing condition, but, of course, we could expect nothing else, as it is under the, supervision of President Waggoner, who is a gentleman and scholar. ' .; The Good .Tamplars, of this place have a well attended lodge. It is said by a drummer that he could once sell here hVe to six barrels of .whisky a trip, but now he can hardly soil one. , There is some talk about the raco for Governor. . We have heard of but one man who will not enthusiastic dly support' that highly esteemed hero, Ur. Luke P. Blackburn. It is the opinion of the people of this prcciuot that ho should be Governor,, and thsy say they wili stand ' by him' until the last. ( ' : ' .; '. Bovea. CALL AND SEE US !
