Keferencea are frequently made to the Mulligan letters in papers hostile to Blaine, and these references are made with a coloring which the facts as officially printed in the Congress ional Becord of June 4th, 1875, do not appear to warrant Iu April or May preceding the Bepublicau con vention in Cincinnati, J. D. Harrison, an implacable enemy then as now to Mr. Blaine, attacked Mr. Blaine's in tegrity. Harrison was a director of the Union Pacific Bailroad. His statement was that the Union Pacific Bailroad had -charged to some one SG1000 of the bonds of the Fort Smith and Little Bock Bailroad of Arkansas and that the real beneficiary was James GK Blaine. An investiga tion was ordered by the judiciary committee, of which Hon. J. P. Knott, of Kentucky, was chairman. Nothing of any special interest was developed until one Warner irisuer, of Boston, and the now famous Mr. Mulligan were summoned. Fisher was a speculator in railway securities and Mulligan was his book keeper. Up to the time of tho appearance of these two men before the committee, Blaine had met every accusation against him, and the bent of the in vestigating committee was to make a report of exoneration. Mulligans statement, however, made a sensation. He said that Mr. Blaine had twice called upon him; that at the first meeting Blaine had besought him to give him the letters in his possession. There was a correspondence between Blaine and Fisher, which Mulligan, the book keeper, had stolen out of Fisher's safe. Mulligan was persuad ed to lend the letters to Blaine for a few hours when they were returned. The next day Blaine, to refresh his memory on the contents of the let ters, was allowed to review them, when he put them in his pocket and refused to give them up. Blaine justified his act on the ground that tho letters had been stol en by Mulligan, who was no longer in Fisher's service. The letters be longed either to himself or Fisher, and the latter wished Blaine to hold them. Tho committee then demanded the letters, and Blaine, after a day's con sideration, refused to give them up. The committee thereupon agreed to report Blaine to the house as a recal citrant witness. Thus matters stood until the 4th of June, 1875, when Blaine made the dramatic scene in tho house of repre sentatives which suggested to Bob Ingersoll his term of "Plumed Knight," afterward applied (o him in his famous speech at Cincinnati. Blaine arose in his seat to a question of privilege. He "was the very em bodiment of rage and passion. His face was pale and bloodless. No one who sat within his hearing could have failed to surmise that something was coming. Thereupon he reviewed succinctly what he deemed his perse cution at tho hands of the judiciary committee, his refusal underlegal ad vice to give up the Mulligan letters, and said: "When the famous witness, Mulli gan, came here loaded with informa tion in regard to the Fort Smith road, tho gentleman from Virginia drew out what ho knew had no reference whatever to tho question of investi gation. He then and there insisted on all my private memorada being allowed to be exhibited by that man in reference to business that had no more connection, no more relation, no more to do with the investigation than with the North pole. And the gentleman tried his best also I be lieve that has been abandoned to capture and use and control my pri vate correspondence. This man has selected out of correspondence run ning over a great many years, letters which he thought would be peculiar ly damaging to me. Ho came here loaded with them. He came for a sensation. Ho came here primed. He came here on that particular errand. I was advised of it, and I obtained these letters under circumstances which have been notoriously scattered throughout the United States, and are known to everybody. I claim I have the right to those letters, not only by naturally right, but upon all precedents and principles of law, as the man who had these letters in pos session held them wrongfully. The committee that attempted to take those letters from that man to use against me did wrongfully.- They preceeded in all boldness to a most defiant violation of the ordinary pri vate and personal rights which be long to every American citizen, and I was willing to meet the judiciary com mittee on this floor. I wanted them to introduce it I wanted the gentle man from Kentucky and the gentle man from Virginia to introduce that question upon this floor, but they did not do it." Mr. Knott (in his seat) I know you did. Mr- Blaine Very well. Mr. Knott I know you wanted to be made a martyr of. Laughter. Mr. Blaine And you did not want to, and there is the difference. Ap plause and laughter. I go a little further; you did not dare to. "Now, Mr. Speaker," continued Mr. Blaine, "I have defied the house to compel me to produce these letters. I speak with all respect to this house. Butlsaythis house has'nb more power to order what should be done, or not done, with my private correspondence than it has -with what I shall do in the nature.and education of' my chil drennot a particle. The right is as sacred in one case as the other. But, sir, having vindicated that right, stdndingby it,-ready to make and sacrifice in the defense, here and now, if any gentleman wants to take the issue with me on behalf of th hnnw Ixm Toadyfor an extremity -of con- ws or connict on behalf of so sacred a right. Amd while I am so, I am not afraid to show the letters. Thank CJod .Almighty. I am not afraid to show them. There they areiholding up a package, of jletters). Tkere is the very original package, and with some sense. of hmauliation, with a morhfioation I do not pretend to con ceal, and with a senae of outrage I think any man irnny position would fee',1 invite the c oafidence of 44,000,000 of my countrymen while I read those letters from the desk." Applause. Mr. Blaine then read the letters with dramatic effect, accompanying them with explanatory remarks. The scene attending the reading was one or the wildest excitement The speak er was powerless to preserve order. The sympathies of tho galleries, which were packed, were with Blaine, and their, enthusiasm added to the general tumult and disorder. After the read ing of the letters and when the ex citement had subsided. Mr. B'a'ne walked over to the Democratic side, and standing directly in front of J. Proctor Knott, precipitated another sensation, and one more startling than tho first; because unexpected. Mr. Blaine saidr "There is one piece of testimony wanting. There is one thing to clo30 the complete circle of evidence. There is but one witness whom I could not have, toAvhomtha judiciary commit tee, taking into account tho great and intimate connection he had with the transaction, and I ask the gentleman from Kentucky if that dispatch wa3 sent to him." Mr. Frye Who? Mr. Blaine To Josia Caldwell. Sir. Knott I will reply to the gen tleman. Judge Hunton and myself have both endeavored to get Mr. Caldwell's address, and have not yet got it Mr. Blaine Has the gentleman from Kentucky received' a dispatoh from Mr. Caldwell? Mr. Knott I will explain that di rectly. Mr. Blaine I want a categorical answer. Mr. Knott I have received a dis patch purporting to be from Mr. CaldwelL Mr. Blaine You did? Mr. Knott How did you Know I eot it? ,. -J i . Mr. Blaine When didfyou feet it? I want the gentleman Trom "Kentucky to answer when he got it Mr. Knott Answer my question first Mr. Blaine I never heard of it un til yesterday. Mr. Knott How did you hear it? Mr. Blaine--! heard yon got a dis- patch last Thursday morning at eight o'clock from Josia Caldwell completely and absolutely exonerat ing mo from this charge, and you have suppressed it Protracted ap plause on the floor and in the galler ies. I want the gentleman to an swer. After a pause. Does the gentleman from Kentucky decline to answer? Mr. Knott I answer that when I get ready. Go on with your speech. Mr. Blaine Tho gentleman from Kentucky, in responding, probably, I think what he said intended to con vey the idea that I had illegitimate knowledge of how that dispatch was obtained. I have had no means of knowing from tho telegraph office whether the telegram was received. But I tell the gentleman from Ken tucky that murder will out. Mr. Grover That is true. Mr. Blaine And secrets will leak. And I tell the gentleman now, and I am prepared to state to this house that at eight o'clock on last Thurs day morning, or thereabout the gen tleman from Kentucky received andi receipted for a message from Josia Caldwell, in London, entirely corrob orating and substantiating tho state ments of Thomas A. Scott, which he had just read in the New York papers, and entirely exculpating me from the charges, which I am bound to believe from the suppression of that report the gentleman is so anxious to fasten upon me. Mr. Blaine's vindication was com plete,and the defeat of the conspiracy to ruin him and blacken his good name forever was crushing and over whelming. TheDemocrats sat amaz ed, dumbfounded, dazed by the in domitable courage, the sublime au dacity of the man against whom they had plotted. Mr. Blaine had "pluck ed the flower safety from the nettle danger," and wrested from his per secutors and desperate maligners tha proofs of his innocence. This is the true storyof the Mul ligan episode. Be Done With It. A recent philosophical treatise says, "we cap endure many an ache and pain if it is soon over." Then let us have it over as soon as possible'. The pain of neuralgia, for instance, 3r rheumatism, or tho army of various painB following in their train. Get a bottle of Brown's Iron Bitters, right away, and go to work on, them. Mr. Jacob Barnes, Barnesville, Ohio, writes, "Brown's Itoa Bitters reliev ed my wife of great nervous prostra tion, which was so -severe that she had to keep her bed."
