WHOLESALE COUNTERFEIT BANK BILL
MASUFACToRY BROKEN Up.-With praise
worthy determination to unloose the tight
ness OF the times by making money plentcr,
several good looking young men, and at
least one good looking young lady, have
associated themselves together without, ask
ing the special privileges Of Legislative
charter, and have prepared at considerable
expense large amount OF pictured promises
topay, duly signed and countersignetl, which,
ruth!cssy have been wrcsted from them 10y
Sheriff Spanglcr and deputies, and even they
arrested and put in "durance vile'
The officers have been sometime on the
trail of this gang, and Yesterday by means
of a Post Office trap, the residence of the
chief counterfeiter WAS found to be in this
city, at No. % Silver street. His name is
+. }. Sumcss, alias }. ID. Miner. The Sheriff
and his party went noiseessly to his resi-
dence last night. ~ gentle tap by one of
the party brought very polite nice lttel
woInah to the door, who said Mr.. Miner was
in. In the meantime Mr.. NJ. was ma
king his exit out the back way, and was ar
rested by one of the deputies.
The besicging party then pitched in'' to
the house, but found the inner room. con-
tanning Mrs. Miner and Mr.. Rosecrantz
alias Nichols, locked and admi.tance refused.
The order was given to burst open the door,
when it was quickly opened by the lady. In
the stove was found a roaring fire, all Of new
bank bills just put in. Rosecrantz and the
lady were seized, the room searched, and
about twenty thousand dollars of prettIy
printed bank bills, all on Eastern banks,
were found ready for circulation, and Whole
trunk full ready TO be fitted out.
On Miner was found letter from one of
the gang, ordering large amount to be re-
United to him, as he was going East via
Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and could put
it off like hot cakes. A list of retail dealers,
customers from abroad, who were patroni.
zing this wholesale house in Cleveland, was
also found.
The three are in jail, and by aid of the
telegraph, no doubt other arrests in other
parts Of the country are by this time made
This is grand haul. and Sheriff Spangler

neatness with which no has despatched this

Charles H., chose Andrew MARVEL, young
gentleman Of little or no fortune, and main
tained him in London for the service of the
public. His understanding, integrity, and
spirits. were dreadful to the then Infamous
administration. Persuaded that he would
be theirs for properly asking, they sent his
old school-fclIow, the lord treasurer DanIy,
to renew acquaintance with him in his gar
ret. AT parting, the lord treasurer, out Of
pure affection, slipped into his hands an or
der upon the treasury for 81 900, and then
went into his chariot. MARVEL, looking at
the paper, called after the trc:,surer-"My
lord, request another moment! "
They went up again to the garrct, and
Jack, the servant boy was called. Jack,

planters that they are progressing we'll in
Preparation of their ground. We hope
that the mellowness, caused by the severe
freezes we have had, will make their ground

highly remunerating prices may be their
reward.
AS evidence of the agricultural prosperi-
ty of our district, we can state that negroes
command high prices. There were twenty

ARrEsIAN WELLs-A report made 10 the
Charleston City Council respecting the pro
gress Of the Artesian well in that city, con-
veys the following Information
The well has now been forced down 10 the
depth of 1910 feet, and at this depth a stream
of water is secured with a propulsive force
equal to the pressure of "a feet head, which,
through the tube of 8 ! inches internal diane.
ter, will discharge feet above the surface OF
the earth from 50 to as gallons per minute.
The water comes from beds of sand and grav-
el, and it is by reason of occasional entran-
ces of sand into the bottom of the tube, that
its ingress is impeded and the quantity dis
charged varied The full supply of water
that can thus be obtained in twenty -four hours
is Ga 700 gallons, while the calculated guam
tity with the same tube for the time. and with
out the impeachment of the sand, would be
1874, 1923, or ninety.tw two gallons per minute
The fact is established that there is
bundant supply of water at depth of i24o
feet below the city, and it only remains 10
perforate other wells till the needed quantity
is obtained; OF, as recommended IN the re-
port, to excavate single one, Of the requisite
size. With respect to the quality OF the
water, the report says
Ii is unexcep;ionally for washins. cooking.
watering animals, steam boilers, and gardens
in fact it is satisfactory for all purpose, ex
cept. perhaps. the rarest to which it may be
applied, viz: drinking. Being somewhat sa-
line and mineral it will require habit to make
it palatable. But it contains nothing injurl-
Gus, and, on the contrary. contains quantity
of free carbonic acid. bi.carbonate Of lime,
carbonate of soda and common salt. Is taste
is well expressed by ap Irish boy, who com
pared it to '.soda water without the sweet
ming" and all can testify that it is superior in
flavor to the waters of Balston and Saratoga,
and only requires little putting TO establish
faith in lis superior qualities for all the purpo-
