A speedy enactment of a law to secure the four acres of ground south of the Capitol. free of coed to the State, as promised by certain citizens of Springfield. 2. That the office of State-House Commissioners and the Secretary be abolished. 3 That John C.

STROALIBUTW, April 27.We have a snowstorm here to-day, which makes a different feeling among the people than any snow-storm ever made hereor any where elsebefore. We can hear on the wind the last death-groan of every grasshopper that has been hatched here the last few weeks, which are millions. We have also good reason to telieve that the storm extends all over the so-called "grasshopper States." It comes from the northeast. and consequently must have started in or beyond Minnesom; and we hope that it extends esat and south far enough to take in Iowa and Kansas If it does, I have an idea that the grasshopper crop will not turn out very good this season. The Indians burnt the grass last season In the Black-Hills country, the 'hoppers' native lend, and so they thought they would come down here and lay their eugs in a more civilized community but I believe to-day that they will slip up on it.

We have to leant the dret cornpiaint "Ince the election of United States Senator. It created a great furore, and the honorable members whose records were politically disagreeable "came down" on Tee Tglaulta and its correspondent "like the wolf on the fold." Indeed, they condacted themselves quite unseemly end even disgracefully, and thereby In no respect improve ed their damaging record, but made a bed matter worse. Now who had the largest -member of discredit marks were Armstrong, 130; Callon; 104; Gilbert, 159; Goodrich, 118; Heifer-limn, 157; Koplin, 149; Morrison, of Christian, 114; Pearce, 112; Rogers. 100; Rowett, 142; Sherman, 109; Taylor, of Kankakee, 107; Watkins, 105; Wheeler. 115; and Williams, 105.

All the others had been absent variously from 1 to 100 times. Of those mentioned above, Rowett and Goodrich had been absent a month on tbe Chicago Park investigation; Hefferman. Gilbert, wad Armatrong had been sick. and Herron and Robin-eon had suffered sickness in their families. Some of the others bad been abeent on committee duty.

These explanations were generally made at the time the report was finst published, but it is undeniable that most of the absence si were not justifiable. The members were junketing about the State. er running home to their families. or attending to their private business, or loafing about saloons and gaming-places in Springfield, when they were being paid as legislators, and ehould have been attending to the public businees. They deserved the exposure tbey got, and it is but just to their Constituents that the facts should be made known.

If it shall have the effec. to make them more attentive to their business, so that legislation shall not tenger be delayed, bat the public Interests be properly sub-served, it will have done much good and no harm. LETTER FROM E. PINNEY. 20 the Editor or The Tribune.

SPRINGFIELD. 111. May I read your article on absenteeism, I was of the opinion that, at the expense of my own private business, I bad danced attendance upon and been one of the faithful in attendance to the business before this body. But now it seems by your published list that I have been absent or failed to vote seventy-nine times; upon the of which Tun Telexes has an editorial charging that L' with other members named therein, have been absent about one-third of the time. If failing to vote on every question or motion that comes up ts to be taken ao 1 being absent, then I plead guilty.

And if your informant will look sharp to the roll-call, be will probably find seventy-nine times more that I shall refuse or tail to vote; and yet I expect to remain in attendance to the close of the session. With the reputation of THE TRIBUNE for fair dealing, I bad hoped it would ere this see the error into which it had fallen. and make the proper explanation. Some days a call of the roll is taken more than twenty times, and yet, according to the argument of Tun TemVele, if a member should refuse to vote ten out of the twenty times, then he is to be booked as being absent ten times in one day.

THE HOOSAC BORE. Dispatch to The Tribune.

BOSTON, May 2Tue. Hooeac Tunnel has engaged the attention of both brunches of the Legislature for the past three days. The Senate has been struggling with the many reports of the Committee which ban bad charge of the subject since January, and has simplified matters at last by rejecting the visionary scheme of Edward Crane, which contemplated the formation of a trust company with a capital of forty millions and authority to build or operate all necessary hues to insure a road from Boston to Lake Ontario. This combination of Western and New York capitalists, were tucorporated in New York, and asked leave to use the tunnel on exceedingly favorable terms, and for leave to buy the necessary con-, mg roses, may also retire, the Senate having nearly unanimously to reject their plan. narrows the contest down to two plans of the Committee, the one directly pledging that for years to come the toll-gate plan will be and the other placing the management of tunnel in the hands of the Commission.

House of Repreeentatte'es to-day rejected claim of Walter Shanly. who dug out the tunnel. His claim was for $125,000, and. though it not legal, it was just and equitable. Ilia were occasioned by the unwarranted interference of the State Engineer and the unexpected difiladties in the way of soft rock and water.

The feature of the discussion was the speech of Mr. Powell, the oldeet member of the Douse. Ile said: "I was In the Blackhawk war with Mr. Lincoln. I say he was one of the best men that ever lived.

I say It, though I now vote against his principles. I would stand ten times my assemment to build his monument. I honor his uhes. 1 wish the bill would pass. That's all I want to say." The earnest slinvlicity with which the Representative front Scott spoke called forth loud applause.

During the discussion, if discussion it could be called (for nobody opposed the bill). Mr. Palmer, in response to inquiries, presented the following statement of the financial condition of the Lincoln Monument Association: LI LBILITTIS. Balance due for the Coat-of-arms. statue of Mr.

The report was made in the usual burry and flurry. Very few members knew what it was about, and, there being no objection, the bill was now ordered tabled.

In the afternoon Mr. Kehoe found what bad happened and made zealous efforts to draw up force enough to take the bill from the table to-morrow, which will probably be done.

The Old Gentleman Corrects Certain News- paper Statements. May Leader to-morrow will contain the following letter from the non. B. F. Wade: JErrensox, April 30, 1877.

To the Editor of the Leader In your paper of to-day are two articles relating to myself copied from the New York Trabstne. The first purports to come from Mr. Ward Lemon, of Washington. formerly Marshal of the District, stating in-eubstance that some time duringMr. Lincoln's Administration a conspiracy was formed by the Republicans In Congress opposed to his Administration to depose him from the Presidency and put either Mr.

Fremont or myself in his place as Dictator; that a written memorandum of the compact was made at the time; that a copy of it was in the possession of Mr. Chase, and by him shown to Lincoln. desire to brand the above statement in all its parts as a willful and malignant falsehood, anti if Mr, Ward Lemon ever made such a statement as is alleged to any one. I pronounce him a liar. I saw the article in the Tribune last week, and had it related only to myself I should not have condescended to notice so silly a lie.

but when I find it copied into respectable and as it implicates many members of that brave old Congress that carried us so triumphantly through the War. most of whom are in their graves, I thought such a scandal UrK)11 them should not go untontradicted. 'The second statement relating to Mr. Painter is as follows: Mr. Wade is eredited with saying.

in explanation of his famous letter. that it was confidential, and was mule public by a person totally depraved and utterly destitute of This is also utterly false. Although the letter was pnvate, it found its way to the public in a manner which entirely exculpates Mr. Painter from all blame. Nor did I ever blame him for its publication.

as the letter contained only the sentiments which I stand by now. I do not regret its publication. and in all the hostile criticisme in the papers and otherwise which it has called forth no one has as yet denied that it contained the exact truth. In vindication of Mr. Painter I will say that I have limown him for many years, and he is as honorable a man as I have ever been acquainted with.

At Inc very outset the Committee was confronted with a problem mulch is apparently uneolvable.

This Commission, with fair liberality, invited competition from the architects of the country. anti. the future Capitol should redect credit on the people of the State, the Cone-elation odered a premium of $3.000 tor the best dosism. Twenty-one architects, anion them men of world-wide reputation, competed for the premium The Commission awarded the premium to Jolla C. of Chicagu who immediately prttared plans and specifications showing that the according to his design, would CObt the sum of 12.537,408, stating, after enumerating the different kinds of work and niaterial that would be ed in the building, that "written proposals are is the architect's Mllee for the above work.

and the partite are ready to take contracts accordingly and give security for the performance of the same. A sobeequeut law reduced the Comtuismon to three members. Bunn. Robinoon. and Beveridge: then Mr.

Robinson retired and Jolla T. liteart was appointed thereto, and TflZ BILK OF Till WORK time beta done under the direction of the latter Board. ilepoeing the utmost confidence in the Board of Stste-House Commissioners and the architect working under its direction, the representatives of the peeple have all alocg provided them with every dolor of money they steed for.

Upon these assurances, and with a purpose of making the people a direct party to thee contract, the Convention limited the total amount to be expended for the tossw State-Rouse tad ground at that sum, which was voted on anti approved by the people. The sum of B4 has been expended by the Commission-am, and TO-DAT your Committee finds the building only partially enapieted. many departments of the State Govern-net anfamished, and the grounds waste, covered with the debris of the building and unfenced.

Cole, of Iowa, arrived yesterday afternoon from Des Moines by the Chicazo Rock Island Railway, bearing with him the mews that his client. Benjamin F. Allen, former President of the Cook County National Bank, was expected to arrive about the same time, having performed the Journey over the Chicago Northwestern. instead of coming through 'with his distinguished counsel. Jade Cole called on District-Attorney Bangs nninediately on his arrival.

late in the afternoon, made the above explanation to the Judge, and asked that Allen be allowed until this morning to furnish bail. This aetangement proved satisfactory to the District Attorney, and Allen will accordingly appear this morning and enter into bonds. A reporter endeavored to find Allen last evening, bat a trip around among the Chicago taverns was unavailing. Probably the ex-banker was stopping with some one of his numerous relatives, and, as it was to oe expected that all he would say would be to asseverate his entire innocence of all the offenses charged against him, and to protest that there never was nor now is any guile within him. the reporter concluded that it was safe enough to make such statements as coming from him without going through the tortures of an interview where only this nasiatiefactory information could be obtained.

Judge Bangs, in the goodness of his heart, although very much against the discretionary ideas of Mr. Boat, his young man, allowed a TRIBUNE reporter yesterday to take a long. lingering look at 'rue ALLEN AND CLEVELAND INDICTMENTS. The result of an hour's fixed attention to these wonderful documents is seen in the following abStreet thereof: The separate indictment arainst Allen contains eleven counts.

SANFORD'S RADICAL CURE For CATARRH .0 Ott feet of the Recent Assassinations.

Special Dispatch to The Tribune. WASHINGTON, D. 11ay of the Mississippi Republicans insist that Gilmer and Judge. Chisholm who were killed in the recent massacre of prisoners in Missiesippi. were killed because they were Republicans.

Both of these gentlemen testified at great length before Boutwell's Committee. From this testimony it appears that they were not earpet-baggers, but reputable gentlemen, and that Judge Chisholm. particularly, was a man of means, owning 10,000 acres of land. He bad lived there since 1846, and bad been In the Southern army, but was a Republican In principle, and is said to have been in full sympathy with the President's policy. Chisholm was a candidate for Congress in the last campaign, and stumped his district.

The testimony shows that MS LIFE WAS OFTEN On the day of election he was not permitted to Tote in tits town. His house was visited that day, and shot into the day previous, by bulldozers. After giving his testimony he expressed fears of assassination. These 'Mississippi gentlemen insist that the Associated Press reports simply cover a plan wnich was pre-arranged for arresting Chisholm and Gilmore, in order that they might. be disarmed and killed.

To the Editor el' The Tribuite. CTIMAGO, May desire to call attention to the nuisance perpetrated on LaSalle street almost every day between 2 and 3 o'clock p. by individuals racing at headlonit speed along the sidewalks to make delivery of grain- There are loud complaints on every hand at this custom. They rush against people, rudely jostling ladles, often knocking men and boys off from the sidewalk, and producing consternation among passing strangers. A few mi 'lutes ago I saw a lad, who was bearing a basket filled with large quart bottles of hair-oil.

run over by one of these messengers and dashed to the atone pavement, together with the bottles, which were broken and the sidewalk was streaming with the oil. But, worst of all, the lad'a face was cut open by one of the broken bottles, and the blood poured in a stream over his clothes. The young man who hail done it all never paused, bnt rather quickened his gait. if that was possible. This was at the corner of LaSalle and Madison.

sow, if such recklexe speed ix required in our streets let the runners take the middle of the road. So say the citizens of LaSalle street. We should have this thintt stopped by the police. or, if they have to authority to stop it, then the Common Council should pass an ordinance giving them the power to do so.
