FOR THE MASSACHUSETTS SPY.

NJ Souchon, a celebrated chemist and dyer
in France, has discovered method of fixing
more permanently than indigo blue, the variety
of shades of green, blue, and blue-black, made
with prussiate of iron. The colors are as beau
tiful as those made with indigo, and are not
liable to be changed by the action of either
acid or alkali; and when worn for long time,
exhibit no whitened appearance, on the seams
or button-holes, but the color remains entirely
unchanged. At the same time, the cost of the
dye is but about onethird as much, as that
made with indigo There is no improvement
IN manufactures so much wanted in this coun-
try, or which would do so much in aiding us in
the race OF competition with other nations, as
the art of making beautiful and permanent col
ors, with hut moderate expense. A full de-
scrlPtion OF this important discovery, with am
pie drawings OF the apparatus for the dye-house,
have recently been communicated to Arnold
Buffum of Smithfeld, (R. ~ by whom it is now
offered to the acceptance of our manufacturers,
for reasonable remuneration.

all in gold and silver. The directors offered a
reward of ten thousand dollars, which set to

circumstances brought the matter 10 light A
man by the name Of Gray, went into a grocery
store, and paid small debt in specie As he
was man known TO be very short of cash, the

he had robbed the bank. On which observa-
ton he was observed to change color, could
hardly speak, and appeared to be ehoaking

of rum. Some persons present began to joke
with him, and elected sufficient to induce the
| Bank to apprehend HIM yet nothing could be
brought against him. A slave of his was taken
up and put in confinement, coaxed and threat
ened, but nothing could be elected from him,
and he was discharged. Another slave of
Gray's was apprehended and on a promise of
his freedom, developed the whole of the robbie
nv, pointed out the place where the money was
/ concealed, which was in hole near his mas
ter's barn, covered with manure, about one and a
quarter miles out of the city, to which place
/ the captain of the guard with his men repaired,
| and found the whole of the money taken from
/ the Bank, and with the exception of few hun
bred dollars, the whole amount was returned
to the place from whence it had been robbed,
exactly one week from the time it was taken
away. Gray was convicted and branded in the
hand He afterwards confessed the whole, and
the manner he had pursued to effect the robbie
nv. The Rank paid -tAe reward purchased the
! freedom OF the black man, and sent him to
Philadelphia, with directions to change his
name.

WORCESTER:
WEDNESDAY. APRIL 6. 1881.

In the Yeoman of last week, an article in
reply to some remarks Of ours has the following
paragraph:
We shall repeat 1t as fact, aothin our per-
SOnat knowledge, that Mr.. Bullock has been
publicly talked Of as suitable candidate for the
Senate for at least the last three years-that
last year and we believe the year before, he re.
celved in some of the tOloRS, in the region where
he lives, more votes than some of the candi
dates who were on the regular ticket and elect
ed.
Repeat it as fact" that he had been "talk.
ed Of" How could the editor repeat it when
he had not before made any such assertion /?
Would he make his readers believe that we had
undertaken to controvert such statement /?
What town, we would ask, has not more than
one individual within its limits, who has been
/" publicly talked Of as a suitable candidate for
tho Senate But the editor says further that
last year" he received in some of the to,ons
in the region where he lives more uOtes than
some of the candidates who were on the regular
ticket and [were] elected, We have once ex-
pressed our dlsbelefof the general statement,
first made by the Editor Of the Yeoman on this
subject, and we now deny the truth of the more
particular one now made by him, and call for
the evidence of it. Give us the towns, and
the number of votes, and then let the public
Judge. We state, distinctly, that Rufus Bull
lock, Esq. dbl not, last year, receive in any of
the towns in the region where he lives, more
votes than some Of the candidates" who were
elected. There is one town in tina: region,
about which we do not pretend to know, the
town which was then honored by being the
place of residence of the present editor of the
Yeoman, but respecting the vote of which, for
for the last year, the public have never yet
been enlightened Till the fact here denied is
substantiated, we must be excused from any re-
ply to other parts of the article under notice.
GTln order to correct any misapprehenson
as to the authorship Of tho communications
mentioned in an article under the head of L" A
Development" in last weeks Spy, we think it
proper to state, that we have sufficient evidence
that they were not written by the person whose
interests they were intended to subserve, nor
have any facts come to our knowledge, tending
to implicate him, in any way, in the transac tion
