DR.. John \. Salisbury. Of Chatauquc

in currency matters. was tried last week IN
the L. $. Court at Rochester. and found
guilty. The Rochester Advertiser says:
lie was man of wealth, occupied
prominent position in society. was lead
mo member in one Of the churches. and
vet it was given in evidence that after hay-
ing spent the night. of Saturday. for IN
stance, in the manufacture of Counterfeit
Coin. he would go into the Suaday School
the next mornin. and take a leading part
in the exercises! He was prominent
mover in all the philanthropic projects Of
the day. remarkable for .piety, sobcrness
and benevolence. This was his general
character in the community. and yet from
the testimony on the part OF the prosccu-
ton. he was connected. with /; band OF the
most deliberate scoundrels that ever went
unwhipt of justice!
1t seems that he had constructed a room
ten feet by twelve. and seven feet high. in
the rear Of his barn. on Il side hill, dug
out of the ground which was covered over
by plank, and on the top OF this was placed
a hen house. SO as eiiectually 10 prevent
discovery. The door leading to it was
concealed, 50 that any one entering the
barn a thousand times, would not have OBJ
served it. The manufacturers generally
worked at night, and just previous to the
Doctors arrest. a man residing on the adj
Joining lot. discovered a light peering
through the cracks, and on looking
through. discovered Salisbury and another
counting over what resembled money. and
heard the doctor say if the other had a
certain pile he must pay part down or give
security.
When preparing his press, &c. for
operation: it seems that the Doctor repre-
scented that he was getting root Mtlf
made for grinding such roots used in his
practice as were too hard to pound. The
testimony on the part of the prosecution
closed last evening. In Chautauque coun-
ty. where the defendant is well known. an
intense interest is felt in the result From
present indications, TRIAL must result II d
conviction.
Irhe Doctor was sentenced to the Peni.
Tertiary for seven years.
