Anti Paper Money Meeting.

AT meeting OF the farmers, miners and labor
ers of the town of Hazel Green and vicinity, held
at said town, on the 25th of March, inst, for the
purpose of preventing far as they are able, the
introduction and circulation of Bank Bills in the
mining region, William Johns, Esq. was called TO
the Chair. George Broderick and ~ H. Hemiup
appointed Secretaries
The Committee appointed TO draft Resolutions
reported the following
PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas, a strenuous effort is now making, by
interested persons TO introduce into the Currency
of the mines large quantities of paper money
which must, by the natural laws of monetary op
eratio1s, inevitably drive out the present hard
money which constitutes the basis of the circulat
ing medium therein: and whereas the prosperity,
stability and uniform character of the business af
fairs of the mining region, are owing in a very
great degree TO its sound specie currency and
whereas all experience in banking operations, show
that the most irresponsible and worthless paper
money is generally forced into circulation to the
exclusion of the sounder bills, thereby throwing
distrust upon paper medium and rendering the
bill-holder insecure and whereas we sincerely be
lieve that the introduction of bank bills at this
time would be detrimental TO the interests of all
classes in the lead district therefore,
Rescued, That we, miners and farmers of the
town of Hazel Green, and precincts, will not,
henceforth take or receive in payment for mineral
OF the productions of farms, any paper mon
ey or Bank Bills of any kind or description.
Resolred, That we will, on all proper occasions
use best endeavors TO prevent the introduction
of bank paper into the mining region; discoun-
tenan-e its circulation. and take all proper steps
10 have the few bills which find their way into
the mines Immediately sent out.
Reached, That we earnestly request our Smell
tiers and Merchants TO continue their payments to
the miners and aboTers in gold and silver; and
10 unite with us in preventing the introduction Of
paper money.
Resolved, That other mining towns request
ed 10 hold meetings similar 10 this
Pesolred. That the papers of Galena, Madison
and the Mines be requested TO publish the pro
ceedngs of this meeting.

The Second Trial o. snring.

PHILADELPHIA, April 7.
The evidence given on the second trial
differed but little from that given on the
first, and the case was given to the jury
this morning, who soon after brought in a
verdict of murder in the first degree.
The prisoner then, by permission, made
statement, In which be repeated his for
mer statements in regard to the guilt of
his son, and further said that he was aware
that his son intended robbing the house.
aud that he tried to dissuade him from it.
that his son went out the evening of the
murder, aud that himself went to bed
early, that his sou came in late that night.
and told him he had got the money, and
asked him for his pocket book to put it in
That his son bought shirts with a part of
the money, and that the only portion of
the money he received was a dollar note
and a dollar gold piece; and that he knew
nothing of the murder until after he was
arrested He closed with a solemn asser-
Grafton of his own innocence, and his sons
guilt"
Judge Kelly then rebuked the prisoner
for his hardihood, in thus persisting in his
statement, which was, undoubtedly false,
and evidently rendered impossible by the
evidence, as the testimony accounted for
every moment of the sons whereabouts
from eight to twelve o'clock on the night
of the murder, and, in conclusion, urged
him, before the expiration of the brief
time he had to live, to tell the truth, aud
by so doing to relieve his son from the
slightest suspicion.
