Oakea Ames has become familiar to every household in the land. Ilia connection with giganticichemes, which prompted Congress to appoint Committees to investigate the corruption of the infamous institution of which he as turned the paternity, has cast a stigma upon his name. Mr. Ames has gone to his resting place by the side of his fathers. He -- years of age, the oldest member of the House of Representatives.

After working out his apprenticeship in a factory, he started a wagon shop in North Easton ; then, as he progress id and accumulated sonic means, he enlarged his small establishment and entered into speculations in Boston, Providence and Hartford. Gradually ho advanced, growing richer and richer every day. Accustomed to the peculiarities of New England farmers, his attcntiou was turned to the improvement of plows and shovels.

Thirty years ago a partnership was formed between himself and brother, for the purpose of carrying on the manufacture of spades, now the largest of the kind in tho world. His practical mind suggested another sphere of action. The colossal enterprise of uniting tho extremo boundaries of the Continent, engaged his attention.

Last Friday uight, Anna escaped from her friends and began wandering about the streets. The doctor at once summoned the genial captain who presides over Uncle Sam's post office, Joseph, whose surname is Merrick, and another man, to their aid, and together they organized a systematic search. Capt. Phelan and Joseph scouring the Common and the lower end of the village, while the doctor and his comrade journeyed northward toward the old church on the hill. About half-panine in the evening, after an uua vailing search, Capt. Pbelan and his colleague came down on to the Common from the north, and there, right before them, on the opposite side of the street, was ft woman hurrying along in a decidedly suspicious manner. Not doubting that she was the missing maniac, t ie chivalrous pair called 'Anna! Anna!' very softly, and tried to approach her, but without success, for as soon as the lady heard them speak, and gathered the design, she began to run as only a woman can when frightened. The hunters gave chase at a thundering gait, and away they went down the street toward Worthy's mill. Finding that her pursuers were gaining on her, she struck across the Common, through the snow, which in some places was nearly two feet deep. Had the course been long enough, the result would have been doubtful, but as it was, the lady crossed the Common and the street on the south side, and dashed through a gate into a front door, with her pursuers only thirty feet behind. The captain at once called the owner of the house to the door, and pantingly told him that an insane woman who had escaped from her friends had taken refuge in his houe. Rut judge of the postmaster's astonishment when told thai the man s daughter had just come in fainting with fright at being chased a quarter of a mile mid nearly overtaken by a couple of ruffians! The captain was too thoroughly taken back to even stammer out an explana tion, but he afterward found the genuine crazy woman sitting quietly under an ancient elm at the solemn hour of midnight.
