GSAJUa, Druggie !lPJIT?lLU?gWg?^^ WASHINGTON GOSSIP. Tl??? Charge* ??f Corruption AKuitut Som?, tor l*f**uo???Ua>*arfl aud tim Curtin Btu? brogtlo. (?orreipondtncc of the. Baltimore ??'?/?. ) A olia no of Ohio Republicans, with tho assistance Of a lbw personal ene mies of Senator Pay no lu thu Demo cratic party of thai State, are engaged in a desperate effort io produce tho impression that his election to tho Senate was accomplished through bribery and corruption. Thc imme diate purpo e seems to i>? to force Mr. Payne lo risc in his seat in Hie Senate, deny tho charges and n?k for a com mittee of Investigation. This Mr, Payne lian declared he will not tlo, as ho considers thc charges, and the source from which they emanate, be neath his notice. Tile lower ho USO of the Onio L?gislature, which is con sulted by tim Republicans, has al ready authorized a coimuitteo of in vestigation, ami it is understood that all tho members of tho Legislature which elected Mr. Payne, who have been mentioned as receiving a consid tion for voting, have posltlvolv denied the allegation. The scheme is, how* ever, it Senator Payne cannot bc driven into asking for an investigation, to torture the result of the l?gislative inquisition into suitable shape, and make it tb? basis of a formal request to tho Senate for an examinai ion into the charges by that body, il is alleged that there is precedent for investiga* lion in the absence ol'a demand from tlie Senator affected, lu the ease of Simon Cameron, of Pennsylvania, in 1807, numerous members of Hie State Legislature petitioned the Senate to investigate tho charges of corruption and bribery in connection with his election, but the Se?alo Judiciary Committee almost unanimously re ported against granting thc prayer, on the ground that it was competent for the Legislature itself to make tho in vestigation. In thc Cameron case there was no pretense of denial that three Democratic members of thc Legislature had been paitl so many thousand dollars a piece to bolt the Democratic caucus nominee, Colonel Korney, and vote tor Simon Cameron, anti not of thc three over held up his hoad atterward. Hut General Cameron held on to the seat which ho had bought, and thought any one extreme ly verdant who expected him to ask tor an investigation. lt would appear as if thc severe criticism and denunciation visited upon Secretary Bayard by Governor Curtin and others in connection with the ap pointment ot chairman of the Mouse Committee on Forolgn Affairs is devoid of tlie least cause. It has already been said that it is not usual for a Speaker to consult a cabinet officer concerning coinmiltees having familiar relations with his department, but in this case it is now known that Mr. Bayard bad nothing to do with thc matter. While at the State Department morning Mr. Bayard's attention was called to tho. statements which havj been made about this affair, when he replied that they were absorb, lie said: ,4I did not interfere in any manner with the House committees, and had nothing whatever to do with Mr. Carlisle's appointments. I do not believe that I expressed a preference as to the chair man of the Committee on foreign Affairs, and I certainly did not attempt to defeat Mr.Curtin's reappointment." A CYCLONIC IN CALIFORNIA. Railroad Cam Iilown From tho Tiark - Hoimm Illowa Down nnil tioneral Dnvoc IMnjed by th? Wind. One of tho severest storms thal have ever occurred on the Pncific coast took Place on Sunday and reached its height shortly after noon Thursday, lt extended from ibo northern boundary ol' Wash 1 ingion Territory to the southern boun 1 dary of California and from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. There . was an almost continuous fall of rain i and snow, accompanied by wind which frtnn lire miles an hour grad > nally incroascd, until about l :20 in thc \ afternoon, when it reached eighty-two i miles au hour. > The Storm wan predicted by thc . Signal Service, and a cautionary -torin I signal was displayed by order of Lieii . tenant Glassford, fron, lin- Hug - lairol . tho Merchants' ICxchailge building. , Owing to this timely notice, many i vessels remained in port ami escaped . the fury of the storm. Although thc , bay inside ibo harbor wa? very rough f thc passengers on the ferry bout being . made seasick-shipping did not sillier. . Considerable damage, however, wa i done throughout the city by tho wind and rain. Houses were unroofed, sheds, fences, trees, awnings, sign-, . church spirea and ninny smoko stacks . were blown down. Hugo philo glass ! windows were shattered, busornonts . Hooded and shutters broken. Cars . were lilted from their trucks by thc ? force of thc wind, and a covered wagon was cantrill up and carried Homo dis A tanco. Xo loss of life, however, han \ been reported. ? About 1:80 p. m., when the wind , was at its highest, the west wall of the i Mechanics'* Pavilion was blown in and a few minutes about ciglitv feet ot tho roof of the building was carried across tho street damaging tho build ings on thc opposite side. Thc damage to thc pavilion amounts to several J thousand dollars. One of the most unfortunate disas ters caused by tho storm was the col lapso of a two-story building at Mis sion and Thirtieth streets. At the . time of tho full of tho building Mrs. j Annie Humbert, Miss Coylo and dobo Carroll wore in thc building. Carroll [ escaped but the women were buried under the falling walls and were se ' verely, perhaps fatally, injured. Tho most serious result of tho storm was , to cut. otf San Francisco entirely, tor , tho first time in its history, from tele? ' graphic, communication with the ont? sido world. Tho wires began going t down one after another, until a final ( break occurred about half past twelve , in tho evening. For a short time tho city wires wore rendered useless. Washouts hare occurred oil the South ern road at several places bel ween Mojara and Yuma. They aro not considered serious, and thu road will ho repaired in three or four days at the furthest. Little or no delay has occurred on tho Central Pacific, al though there has boon a heavy snow fall botweon Truckee, California, and lleno, Nevada. Investigations made by tho Chi cago polico and detectives haro dis closed the fact that the anarchists of that city-composed largely of Gor man speaking people-have been eil? gaged in mann fact uri ng dynamite bombs and experimenting with other infernal machines, for the purpose, us they declare, of destroying the militia ami blowing up the large public build ings When tho "great revolution" begins.

Tho newspapers IVunkly admit timi ito won upon thc < mtldonee ot'the people in lii?? iii>i utterances and 'bat iiio happy Impresidous he made are widen? in?; ?uni deepening with every service. His oneil, unstrained maimer, his eariiosl words ot' sympathy, love and solicit mle, mid bis perfect faith have completely captured for him tho hearts of all who have heard him. Ile basal once conquered all lite popular preju dices that garbled newspaper account might have engctidored. Tho eager crowds who aro thronging Trinity church are not thc usual first night's crowd? of curiosity seekers. The spirit of religions interest is fully manifested and the situation at this early stage of the meeting is full of glor?o us promises Of'81103088? The Enquirer said editorially, after tiring a few "pointers," that "in his tustle with Satan in Cincinnati, wc aro decidedly on the sido of Sa?n .Iones." The Commercial said of the initial service that "thc church way crowd ed to its capacity, despite thc weather, and thc lamons preacher roached the hearts ol' his hearers,'' and also re ported "fluttering indications for a great revival." Tho Sun said: "Before he had talked Ave minutes ho had that large assem blage at his morey. He was so frank, SO free, so unaffected, thc words came ill such purity that every one was charmed. Sam James is a wonderful mau in his own peculiar way. Thc audience was really impressed and delighted hythe wonderful discourse.'" The Evening Telegram says: "Sam Jones opened the Lord's campaign against the devil last night. His attack was vigorous and full of tire. The indivual sinners received broad side after broadside. Cincinnati can stand a good of reformation and stiil show Sodom several tricks. We wish Mr. Jones success." The Evening Post, in comtnoutitig says: "In manner bc is perfectly nat ural. He dresses, looks and talks plainly. You hear no gorgons, high? flown periods from him. His speech is pure Knglish; about seventy-five per cent, of his words arc inonosyHa bles, and winds, too, have only one meaning. He thinks clearly and log ically, and Iiis experience ill address ing juries is now i ng him youd service in aiming straight at tho mark." The Times-St or, quotes the strong est points of the sermon and remark?: "lt was extremely entertaining and full ol epigrammatic se ti toncos which was thoroughly enjoyed by the listeners." The Kev. Dr. Joyce, tho pastor of Trinity church, says: "These arc not only the largest congregations that have ever attended rovlval ser vices in this city, within my knowl edge, but thev are made up of the tl nest class of (Jincin nallan*) and of people wdio aro seldom reached by the preachers and churches." The largo number of ministers tn attendance at each service are evi dent ly interested in the great work and are ready willi roponsive '"amens." Mr. Jones has lilied the appointment np to this time, pioneering thc way for the continuous and heavy work ahead. Mr. somali is prepared to go forward with bis assignments when reached, and thc probabilities are that as no available hall in the city will hold the people double services will be held ill separate churches. Every I ogenoy will be used that grace pro vides IO make this meeting of won? derful and pcrutttllOt good results. rho Bermoll last. Friday night on the demands ot the situation and the duty i of Christians in Cincinnati in thc present emergency, was ono of un usual fervor and power. It created a decitlcd sensation among thc people, and caused many persons to grow serious with unusually pertinent thoughts about their own lives, and daily examples. The cflcct of the sermon will bo great upon thc future ' progn SS of tho work in this oily. A RKSIAHHAm.E CHARACTER. A slav? Who Pollovi vd tho Port mien ?>f tho Coitfodorute Anny. In Mansfield, La., en Monday, was held the funeral of a well known and remarkable character. Levy Candue, seventy-six years old, died after a lon?? illness, and his funeral was conducted by veteran soldiers of thc Confed?ralo anny. Old Levy Camino was a negro, i and hi-" lifo had been un eventful one. Ho belonged to tho Hogan family in ; Alabama, and when thc Florida Indian : war broke out in 1S:17, although II more boy, he followed his \ oui,g mas ter lo tho field ot action in tho capacity of a cook and general waiting boy. During one ol the battles he saw UH master killed by au Indian hullo', and laid him away in a soldier's grave amid thc everglades of Florida. He ' remained with a cousin of his decoased master until tho close of thc war. Ho was present at Goneral Jessup's camp when Oeeola, tho famous Indian chief, was, as Levy always claimed, treach erously captured bv that officer. He returned to his home and was a faith ful house servant until tho breaking out of tho late war, when bc again went lo tv) the army as the servant of young Dr. Hogan, of Mansfield Place, who was a member of thc Dc Soto Pelican Bi flos, Second Louisiana In lanny. This famous company, from first to last, contained lol men, and old Levy helped to bury about 100 of them. Dr. Hogan W08 killed at the Wilderness, but, old Lovy remained With the company and cooked for the well and nursed thc sick until tho last year of tho war, when be returned home to join another young master, who had become old enough to enter thc army. Ot Ibo Pelican Rifles only thirty returned homo, including old Levy, and all of thom but one were wounded. After tho war this black Confederate became a Democrat and labored earnestly for tho overthrow of Ropuhlicau government In Louisiana. Nothing except his birth and color prevented him from hoing a master among men. Tho surviving members of the Polioan Rifles, onlv five or six in number, arranged for tho funeral cf their old l'riond.
