Tix MANY PRIENDS of Judge Al drich will be pleased to learn that he is now recovering from his recent severe indispositin. TAKINU FOU GR ANTED THAT Kellogg will be ousted from the United States Senate, the Louisiana Legislature is balloting for hiR successor. - Poor Spofford is left entirely out in the cold, though it would seem that if Kellogg be ousted, he should have the seat. The lississippi Legislature is also balloting for a Senator to succeed Bruce. General Barksdale was lead- I lug at last accounts. The Maryland Legislature has elected a leading poll tician, named Gorman, to succeed Senator Whyte. The Virginia Re adjusters and Radicals have already elected General Mahono to succeed Senator Withers. Ti LATEST DISPATCHES FROM Maine are ludicrously similar to those that flashed f'om Columbia in the latter days of 1876. The Republicans se ceded from the Legislature and, with those members who had lieen counted out, marched to the State House, when the Fusionists were not looking for them, entered the Hall and or ganized a separate Legislature. At last accounts the "Wallace" and the "Mackey" houses were both in full blast. A pretty plentiful Infusion of the colored element was alone lacking to make the resemblance erfect. True, there was no Ruger on the. Pcene. But Major General Chamber lain, of the State milltis, is the Deus e: rnachina, or virtual dictator. Maine is now enjoying the delights of military government. Strange as it I tmay appear, Blaine is occupying pro cisely the same platform Hampton was in 1876, and is using the argu ments the South Carolina Democrats furnished him. Mr. Jim Blaine un derstands all about returning boards now, and it has made him sick. He gets very little sympathy, politically or personally, on this side The line. TnE TAY DISASTER HAS SET TIE New Yorkers to thinking about the safety of the East River suspension bridge now erecting between that city and Brooklyn. If finished it will be by far the longest, highest and widest bridge in the world. Ten millions have already been expended on it and four or five more are required. Yet Engineer W. H. Webb, of New York, is out in a letter to prove that the bridge will barely be safe under or dinary circumstances, while a heavy gale or a vast concourse of people on any one spot would snap the cables like packthread, and p)rcipitate the whole structure Into the water below. The safe strength, distributed evenly along, is estimiatedI at eleven hundred 3 ~tone, or thirteen p)ounIds to the square foot, and the utmost tension possible at four times that weight. Yet Mr. Webb apparently proves by figures that a crowd of ten thousand people on the bridge at any one time would far exceed the strength, if massed at any one section, while a gale, blowing sixty-five miles an hour, as It did Inst January, would press with a force of twenty-one pounds to the square foot and would blow everything off the bridge if not carrying the bridge Itself. The great engineer Rockling has es timated that a gauge otf six feet Is re quired to prevent a car from being in danger of being blown off. He also pronounced it unsafe to run a locomno tive over the bridge, and eveni said that the trains should be confined to three ears drawnm by an endless chain. These facts are nmot reassuring and Mr. Webb calls on the Legislature to * have an investigation by experts be fore voting otheor millions for the conm pletion of a possible gigantic man trap.

The union of Grant and Bayard, on the same ticket, might produce the same effect as stringing a cat and a 'possum head ylownward over a clothes line, and there's not much "solid union" in that. The disregard of the unities in this ticket calls to mind a verse said to have been scribbled by an ambitions poet on the walls of the Mammoth Cave, in which logical sequence was sacrificed to rhythmic necessity. It road as follows: "Tile Mnmnoth Cave, oh, what a spot, In suimme r coolIn) winter hot. The Mammoth uavo, oh, wiata wondor, Andrew Jackson, h-il and thunder t" The object of the gentlemen who have organized the club is most lauda ble. Every patriot will heiirtily sec ond their demand for unity and for an end to sectionalism. But this can be secured only by the election of some sound constitutional Demnocrat. Bay ard or Seymour would fill this bill. Grant has beena it sectionalist too long. He will not do. The "Solid Union Club" must bring in another horse. MATTE1S IN MAINE. Quiet Reigting--The Republicana Abeenting Themnsulves from thu Leglalfture-White nsfuses to Appear Before lho Bribery Comttmittee. AUGUSTA, Jan. 13.-At a quarter to 2 o'clock this morning the committee of the Republican House to report ques tions to submit to the Supreme Court, submitted a series which it was voted to submit to the court. The questions are lengthy and ats yet incomupllete, and will not, be given to the public until to-day. Both branches adjourned at 2.15 un-. til Saturday, January 17th, at 2 p. m. Acting Governor Lamson will issue orders to-day ordering the militia not to obey the orders of General Cham berlain. Forty Republicans came to the city last night by Pullnan train. Both branches of the Legislature quietly assembled to-day without dis turbance, the Republicans absentimg themselves. The night at the capitol passed very quietly, there being no dis turbance. A full guard was on duty. The only thing irregular which occur red this morning was when (ren. G. W. Martin attempted to pass the guard in defiance of police regulations and was summarily handled by the police. The Fusionists are very reticent ahont expressing their opinion of the events of last night. They seem surprised, and are entirely unwilling to converse upon the subject. Wallace I. White, whose card of de nial of brihery has been published, has been summoned before the briberv committee, but has refused to appear. The reported scheme for electing a Governor and State officers has appar ently been abandoned, both parties seeming willing to await the decision of the Supreme Court before proceed lug further. Mr. Lamson, who claims to be the acting Governor, has' as yet performed no ofilcial act that interferes with the prerogatives ofGen. Chamberlain.

"Why, just this-you'll excuse my speaking so lowv-but the fact is I'v'e come all the way from the San Joaquin to look up a party in your line of busi ness5." "Have, eh ?" "Yes-I-well, I've a little proposi tion to make to you." "Exactly," sa'id the Ferret, canmly ; "you'r a bank cashier down in the foot-hills."

Allen Hiill is a colored man who was sent as one of the convicts from the penitentiary to work on the Green wood and Augusta Railroad. i.e re ceived a pardon from Governor Hampton, and returned to his home in Columbia, where he now is. His gei eral reputation is good, his pardon having been obtained by the earnest efforts of many influential white citi zens who believed his statement that he was innocent of the crinenof which was conivicted, cattle stealing, having been duped into assisting in driving some stolen stock. These circuml stances, and the fiat that having been pardoned his evidence is good before a court of law, render his testimony val uible. le was visited by a reporter for the News and Courier on Monday night at his house in a row locally known as ''Sharp's Jail," near Arsen'al Hill, Co lumbia. le was found sitting before the fire contentedly smokingr a pipe, several members of his fiunily beiinr seated about him. ilIe is a lmid'dle-ageill black man, tall, well made, and a type of the ordiarv colored man in dress, mnanners and conversationl. lie readi iy answered the questions put to him, being cautioned that only facts within his own knowledge were wanted. His statement is as 1'ollows: He was sent to the penitentiary in May, 1877, and went to the Greenwood and Augusta Railroad in October of that year. Was in good health when he left the penitentiary. lcmnained on the road until the 1st of April, 1878, when his pardon arrived. HA D A PLENTY TO EAT while he was there, but the work was severe-generally from 7 o'clock in the lnorning to 6 in the evening. Goo: fires were generally lighted for the men while they were at work, and they were tolerably well cared for in the stockaeds. They were allowed one blanket each, and lay on pine straw. ''hat wias at "Patterson's" stockade. Capt. Cahill punished the nen "pretty sharp." '' He was a right bad fellow." The men's leos were all sore from be ing kept on tiie chain, and they were left in it in that condition. Hill him self had never been beaten, but he had seen Capt. Cahill beat men on the work with A BIG BLACK STICK. He had seen men knocked down by him, and sonie knocked seniseless. Rte memlbered anong those so treated one colored man naied Scott, and a white man, name unknown, and there were others. Capt. Cahill never whipped a man when he caine down, but always used his stick. Wouki say that men were beaten with sticks by Capt. Ca hill as often as three or four times a wecek--hardly every day. He fre quently cut mien's heads badly when he struck them. When he knocked them senseless lie gave orders to "let 'ein lie there, d -'ei, till they get their minds about 'em." When a man re gained his senses he would go back to work. Men were WHI1PPEID OFTEN-EVERY DAY, with straps, and frequently severely. Had seen men worked on the road whom lie believed to be sick. Saw one imanu taken sick at wvork, who told Capt. Cahill he was sick and unable to continue. Capit. Cahill told him lie should wvork, and took him down the road and had him wvhipped. Made him work. They carried him home to the stockade in (lie evening and whip ped him again there. Tihe next day a pardon came for thant man. Hel was sent to Greenwood. and there, so IHill says, (lied, being un-uble to go further. "MY TOES TELL ABOUT ME," said Hill, looking down at his bare feet. '"Thmey are all fros' bit." One of (lie women sitting near by laughed as she said, ''Yes, all do ends oh Alen's toes bit oil;" and Hill joined In the laugh at wvhat seemed to be considered a joke 01n imsolf. Hei stated that Ca hill wanted to makcehim walk horne in the condition ho was wihen lisa pardon camne, but Mr. Bradley insisted on his being furniished a mule to ride to Gre-enwvood on, and got him one. He ascribed his general compa rativelv g' o,l treatment to Mr. Orchard, one 'of the guards, wvhio, lie said, know him, and lie believed, "kep many a hard lick" off him that he wvould otherwise have gotten. Hie had worked full time wvhile on (lie road. H-ad neover boon in (lie hospital. Thei stockade was kept pretty clean while he wvas in it, but all the men sulfered greatly from cold.

Reading the Story of the Execution. The Daugiter of Mrs. Surratt Tells tho Story of Genoral :Hagoock's Connection With the Terrible Trageily--Isterviow With a Baltimore Lady. Speclal to the Now York World. WASIUUNOTONr January 4.-In view of the renewei comments upon the part which Goan. Hancock is alleged to have taken in the 'execution of Mrs. Surratt, a representative o' the Wor.'d visited Baltimore to obtain from the daughter of the untortunate martyr a statement of all she knew about ' the mattter. Mrs. Surratt's daughter is now Mrs. W. P. Tomry, wife of Prof. Tonry, a w'lI-known analytical chem ist. Wit h her husband and two clil dren she resides at 118 Eager street, Baltimore. "Mrs. Toury," began the reporter, "I have called to. solicit from youi a statement regarding the part General Ilancock took in colnmeution with your lmother's execttion." '1'he lady seemed visibly aflected. As 8oo' as she was able to recover her com losutre sho 8aid: "ly health is n1ot gooi; you must cxcuse mne, but the mentiont of my mother's namno brings all the facts of that horrible day so vividly to my mind that I an not al ways strong enough to control my self." . As sle had not seen the card of Father Walter vindicating Gen. Han cock. it was read to 11cr, together with a statement published in an Indiana paper on the samic subject. When Gen. 1Hancock's name was mnentioncd she said quickly: "Ile had nothing whatever to do with it. I suppose you have coie. for me to say some thing in his favor; what could I say or what would it avail ?" "Why is it that you feel such a pre judice against Gen. IIancock ?" "Because," said she, "of his treat llent of me on the morning of the exe cution. I went to him that morning can I ever forget it 1-and begged, im plored and beseeched him to ask the President and secretarv of N ar to post pone the execution. What did he do? What did he say? Nothit:g. Do you think he is.at man ?" "What could he have done, Mrs. Tol'ry ?" "I don't know, but he might have tried." "Was he not kind to you? Did he say anything offensive to you?" "lIe said, the President and secretary of war have made up their minds.' " "Was that all?" "Yes, but his manner was so cold. He has no heart.." "Was the statement I have read from the Indiana paper, charging him with Indifference to you correct in any onle particular?" "No, Gon. Hancock had nothing to do with granting ;e permits. Secretary Stanton signed them and Gen. Han cock merely countersigned theln. Stanton and Gen. Ilolt were the onl' men who conttrollod the Pres'dent anld they are the guilty ones. When my mother was so sick in prison that sh'e was not expected to live they would not allow a priest to visit her. Who ever refused such a request before? Common humanity ought to have made himt grant her request. I could tell you a great deal about the silent hours I spent with mny mother in the jail.

"People are beginning to tink of your mother as fil innocent woman miost cruelly wVronged," the reporter suggested,. I" and-" "InnIocenlt, do you say ?" Mrs. Tonry broke in ; who should know it bette'r than I? Can you think' that a mother would conspire with her son? I was her1 close comlpanion anid nlever left her and wvhat she did I did.
