Melancholy Case Of Crime.

In the Bucks County Court Of Quarter
Sessions on Tuesday last, Henry Carver
wealthy farmer of near sixty years OF
age, and the father of family of grown
up children, was placed upon his trial for
the petty larceny of stealing corn from
his own tenants. The offence was fully
proven upon him, and the Jury returned
verdict Of guilty. He will be sentenced
to-day. The trial produced an intense
excitement, and the court room was
densely crowded during its progress
The prisoner was defended by able coun-
sci, who in his defence produced the lease
10 ade between him as the landlord, and
the prosecutor his tenants, in which there
was an intcrlineation made by his son
who drew it up, and who is a member of
the Bar, calculated to justify, and give a
right to the landlord to the taking away
of the corn at any time before a division
of it should be made between the con-
tracing parties. This interlineation the
prosecution contended had been surrept-
itously inserted by the son in order to
SdfS LIS AdtuCl iIOlu d uiCIittu puuiSu-
ment. If this were so, it should be char
itably regarded as that flial affection,
which in time of sorrow might tempt an
honorable man to save the parent who
gave bin birth from. that deep degrada-
ton which would necessarily follow upon
conviction, and inevitably entail its
miseries upon bis unhappy family. Why
one reared from childhood under the al,
spices of the descendants of William
Penu, sect whose discipline inculcates
the strictest integrity, and whose lifetime
had been passed in community whose
honesty is proverbial; should now in the
sunset of existence fall into the meshes OF
vice we may not explain; but it does prove
most forcibly the truth of the old axiom,
that
"Ihe purest treasure mortal times afford,
Is sPotless reputation; that away,
Men are but gilded loan or painted clay
Of what avail now, are all the petty
meanncss of long life to him? or what
gain the close sordidncss which gave him
wealth and position! when character is
gone-reputation blasted, and the bless
ings of peace and of mind which hovered
DER his household are banishcd forever
1t is a morunful lesson to all Let the
mantle of charity cnrobe his errors, and
their Just rctribution,

Counterfeiting on Large Scale in Ohio
Implication of well known Citizens.

A regular counterfeiting league, com
posed of gangs located in Cleveland, Gin
cnnati and other portions of Ohio, has
been discovered by the Police, through
stool pigeon. Many we'll known citi.
zens, including three police officers, are
said to be actively engaged in the nefari.
Gus business. The Cincinnati Gazette, Of
the l4th says:
The names Of the gangs and their prin-
cipal places of congregating were named
as well as the method of obtaining 'cov,
Iey," and becoming an adept in this spe.
cies of crime 1t was stated that gangs
were in Columbus and Sandusky, in both
of which cities arrests, upon information
received from Ioung, have been made,
and the parties committed to Jail, for their
final trial in the criminal courts. In this
city, no arrests have yet been made, but
We learn that the necessary steps are be-
