[(Correspondence X'to York t1er<dd. J WASHINGTON, Juno 2.-The do volopnents in the Potter committee on Saturday have been the subject of eager discussiou here to-day in all circles. The impression among those who have become thoroughly in - formed is that an important advance was made by Anderson's documents toward establishing the existence of a conspiracy among loading Repub lican politicians in Louisiana to so manipulate the election there as to fraudulently give its electoral vote to the Republican candidates. Prominent Republicans here do not conceal, in private conversation, their feeling that it this can be con.. clusively established it will be a serious matter, and this whether any of their visiting statesmen are involved or not. Further evidence on this head is, therefore, awaited with general anxiety. It is a fact also, that Secretary Sherman's un cel tam roply as to whether or not he wrote the letter attributed to him has loft an unp!easant imp-ession. People friendly to him, as well as those opposed, ask why he did not answer at once, and decidedly, either yes or no. Some of his friends sug gest that he wishes to eonmit all the witnesses the committee may have to the assertion that ho did write it, and then prosecute them crimi nally for perjury. But in that event, others object, he has weakened his own case by testifying he is hilnself uncertain whether he wrote it ornot, emd at the same time to have coin mitted himself to doubts as to the propriety of the letter. As to the documents tracod to donator Matthews, they make an extremely unpleasant impression, for people recall the notorious facts that the administration has been prodigal of oftIe and favorable to every man conspicuously connected with the Returning Boards and prominent in offico in Loisiana and Florida, and that Secretary Sherman Geheral G..rfield, Senator Matthews, and other of the visiting statesmen fell into an agony of fury about the trial of Anderson and made haste to write him foolish asaurances of pro tection. It has been a stain on the administration that it favored the admission of Kellogg to the Senate, kept Madison Wells in office, gave Anderson a comfortable place, sent Stearns, of Florida, to the J ot Springs and Packard to LiverpooJ, and took care in other places of a; multitude of men who were engaged in the election in ways which made them suspected and disreputable. It was said that, though this was not civil service reform, it was yet but the usual rewarding of pard, tisan services;i but in the light of A.nderson's document regarding the agreement between him and Nash, to wvhich other evidence seems to show that Kellogg, at least, was privy, and of the correosponce be tween Mr. Matthews and Andersorn, this whole bijsiness assumes a more TLhie documents brought out to-i day, espec2ially the agreement be tween Nash, the colored candidate for Congress, and Anderson, taken in conection with Anderson's tes,. timony, have certainly produced a strong impression not only on Democrats, but also on many Re publicans that the .Democrats right. fplly carried BInst Feliciana and some other parishes -enough to. have entitled themn to the electoral vojte of the State. On this point Anderson has produced a deep im pression, and so far the inves tiga'. Lion has uindoubtpaly, to-day, been, a mar,ked success for the Democratie side., and Lhe Republicans will have difSculty in overcoming that im proession, This re.sulb Is especially unwel some to themn,, Zt is ver well un derstoo4 t.a4 the Reptblioan. do iat care' bo*' deeply tqvisI,lg *ates aet ~i the a i4ot on the exposures w'mla affect only the Conduct of the visiting statesmen a'?d th:: adaamin;ritration. The L("neoc1ats are iturally elated at the development.s of Sat. urday and the promise of even more inportant testimony to come. They say that now it is shown that the invostig"tion was proper and neces"" sary, and they very generally add that now, in the face of Anderson's tcstimony, they are ready to repeat that they have no intention to dis, turb the Presidential title. They a e satisfied to show to the country. the electoral frauds and their ro stilts, and intend no proceedi ings beyond this, A RESL UTR iJO1X'S FIGHT. Killing Two Ti-amps in Self Defence But Herself Igrtaally Wounded. RICoON'D, Juno 1.- List night a plucky young widow living near Tazewell Court House in this State defeated two tramp rullians after a fight which cost all three their lives. About ten o'clock at night two men went to the house of Mrs. Becky Baldwin and asked her to give them some silver in exchange for notes; offering seven dollars of the latter for five dollars of the former. They soon left, but returned after she had retired and broke open the door and entered her bedroom. She jumped from the bed and told them to loavo her room. They demanded her pocketbook, and threatened violence if she (lid not give it. She went to her dress, deliberately took the pocketbook from it, containing $21, and throw it in the fire. One of the tramps stooped to get it out, and she snatched up an axe and dealt him a terrific blow, knocking him down, quickly following with other blows, dashing his brains out on the hearthstone. The second tramp then drew a dirk knife, rushed at her, and stabbed her tvice in the left breast. She dealt him a fearful blow with the axe, nearly severing his right arm near the shoulder. The miscreant then fled, leaving a trail of blood. behind him. His dead body was fo.nud this morning two miles fron% t:w place. A young white man came by this morning and found Mrs. Baldwin dying. She told her story, and died two hours afterwards. The dead bodies of the tramps were thrown in a hog- pen, so great was the indignation of the people in the vicinity. There were no papers upon them by which they could be identified. FROZEN TO DLEA'i.-A miner in the Black Hills writing to a friend in this city, tells of a horrible reminder of the fearful snow stormne of last winter and of the perils of those who were caught out and lost their way on the plains. lie says that recently. while he and two other wern crossing the country, they came upon the skeleton of a horse within which was the skeleton of a man, with the grinning skull _' looking out at them from betweeit the ribs of the animal, like a prisoner peering through the bars of his cell. The two skeletons told the whole story. The man had < liilled his horse, cut him open, and crawled inside of him, thinking to thus escape perishing of cold, but the flesh of the animal froze solid and the man was as much a prison er as if he had beeni shut in by walls of iron, The wolves and carrion birds had strippod tle greater part of the Ilosh from both skeletons. The miner concludes his description by saying : '-It was a sight I shall never forgot. I can seo it now whenever I close my eyes."- Virginia City .lCnterprise. How TO FIsu FOR MEN.-At thQ Newv York Press 0lub reception on Thursday night, Rev. T. De Witt '%.n old fisherman on~ce told mne the ~ reason sQ few sinners were convert" ed lay in the mainner in whieb the ministers angled for them. 'When I go to catch fish,' remarked the disciple of WValton, 'I uise a delicate pole, an almost invisible line a hook of the most artiistic wQrkmnanship~ and at the end~ of all a tempting.' bait, which I softly drop into the stream ; but when you preacher's start out you take for a polo a weaver's beam, to which yon 'fastati a cart rope, with a potehoolkat tacbed ' and a snappiig turtle for a ube This you throw into the wt with a splash and e;olaink, *'t1 % '' be 4a*gnedJ . > ..
