Among TIC many articles, the growth
and manufacture Of this State, exhibit
ed at the Fair, there was none that
elected a higher need Of praise than
the Tobacco manufactured BY Messrs,
B. W. Lewis & Bro, of Glasgow, and
which received the premium, a silver
cup, valued at SO. All competitors
acknowledged that the award was justly
made-and many of the judges of To-
bacco in this vicinity declared that it
far surpassed anyartiele they hadseen
manufactured in this State, and was
equal to theyery best celebrated James
River, Virginia Tobacco. We believe
Missouri Tobacco, in quality, now ranks
with the very best in the country, and
where it is manufactured by expert
cnced persons In the business it must
certainly equal that of any State in
the Union. omA

more attention than the splendid watch,

The frauds perpetrated by Charles
B. Huntington, the note broker, are
still causing considerable excitement
among the business community, more
especially as new f~orgeries, are daily
being discovered. The aggregate
amount of these f~orgeries, SO far as
known to the authorities, is SIS, 700,
but this sum it is thought will not
cover one fourth of them. Many
firms, it is rumored, who have lost large
sums by discounting the forged paper,
keep the matter quiet, fearing to iniure
their credit by an expose. The case

Osborne, and in addition to the testi-

loaned money to Huntington on four
promissory notes ~purporting to have

General Walker finding the enemy
advancing on Massaya, withdrew the
small force there, when the enemy,
1900 streng, occupied the town.
General Walker then left a small
force at Granada, and advanced towards
Massaya with 1000 men, and meeting
the enemy on the 18th inst, near the
city, repulsed them driving them back
TO Massaya, where a battle was fought,
lasting until midnight.
At daylight a courier arrived from
Granada, stating that 1,400 Guatama-
laens andnatiVes we're besieging Grana-
da. Gen. Walker, on receiving this in
formation, Immediately marched to the
relief of Granada, and arrived on the
heights surrounding the city on the
morning of the 18th at 10o'clock, and
finding the city ~barricaded by the whole
force Of the enemy, he charged upon
them them and drove them from their
posts, capturing their commanders and
all their field pieces, and routing them
from the city with great Slaughter.
The total loss of the enemy was
100. Gen. Walkers loss Is killed
and 80 wounded.
General Walker would Immediately
march on Massaya aud Leon. His
troops were in the highest spirit.
The citizens of Granada held the
government building twenty-five hougs

were vigorously defending the place

where the packets Aubry and Cataract

mar at the oars to pull out into the
river in order to miss the boats. The
night being very dark, before theparty
were aware Of their danger the yawl
struck against the Cataract and cap
sized, and threw the whole party into

on the Herald, and a cabin boy, were
drowned. MIR. Miller and two other
gentlemen with him fortunately were

BISHOP H. o. OEDERDoNKs SENTENCE
81 RENTED.


BISHOP H. o. OEDERDoNKs SENTENCE
81 RENTED.
We learn that the Episcopal Conyen-
ton, sitting in Philadelphia ON the 21st
inst, by a very decided majority, re-
mitted the sentence upon Bishop III. o.
Onderdonk, of this State, which sus-
pended him fromall clerical functions.
This sentence was imposedtwelve years
ago about the time his brother, Bishop
Onderdonk, of New York, was also
suspended. The members ofthe Church
public also are doubtless familiar with
the history of these cases, and thefeel-
ing that the action Of the Convention
produced in the Church. An interval
Of twelve years has softened the asper-
tiles the discussion then produced and
the remission of the sentence at this
late period seems no more than an act
of Justice to an old servant Of the
Church, who in his previous eer had
rendered it good service, and whose
conduct since has been void Of offence.
The remission of his sentence will re-
store him to his ministerial functions,
but, we presume, not to his Bishopric,
which is now filed By Bishop Potter.

ARR1soN IN THE pEN1rRNrrARY.

Some Of Sheriff BrasAear's efficient
deputies escorted, recently, sixteen
delegates from this City to the Ohio
P~enetentiary. Among the number
was Arrison, the murderer of the ALI
sons, by an internal machine. None
Of the prisoners evinced any emotion
on their transit to Columbus. When
they reached that place they found be-
tween three and four hundred persons
collected to see Arrison. Some of
these cried out that he ought never to
have been brought there-that he
ought to have been hung, andthe like.
Arrison scoWled at this, and remarked
that sten years would soon pass by,
and when he got out he would make
some suffer" He said he didn't mean
to attempt an escape, but "when he
got out he would give hell to some
body"
After he had his beard shaved, head
trimmed and prison clothes put on, he
was about to utter another threat,
when Mr.. Hoffman, an old and efficient
keeper, told him sternly not to utter
another word, that he was now a priso-
ner in the Ohio P~enitentiary, and must
not speak to any one but him (Mr. H)
Arrison attempted for a moment to
look %scornful, but he covered before
the stern officer, and did not dare to
utter a word. He was put to saving
axe handles, the most laborious work
in the prison.-Cncinnati Gazette,

Remarkable Trial.

Within the last two weeks trial was had
in The Court Of Common Pleas OF r yss coun-
ty which has developed some startling
facts. An adherng member Of the Know
Nothing order charged seceder with per.
jury in having disclosed the secrets of the
order; upon this charge a suit for slander
was instituted. Upon the trial Of the de-
fendant introduced as in evidence Of the
order, who disclosed these startling factr.
They testify that each man who joins the
Know Nothing order takes solemn oath
nevtr to disclose the existence Of the order,
the names Of any Of its members or bis own
connection with it. When asked whether
this oath taken in the order, was not regar-
ded by them as conflicting with the oath
they had just taken in the Court from the
fact that each of these witnesses had not
only told Of the existence of the order, but
had revealed the names and connection Of
members, they replied it did not, from the
fact that each of them had permit Of in
diligence from Thos. Ford, President OF the
order, granting them permission to testify
AS witnesses in that case. These startling
disclosures must alarm every good citizen
for the safety, not only Of the administra-
lion of justice, but for the security of our
free institutions. When dark and secret
cabal becomes 50 lost to every sense Of re-
! ligion and duty as to administer oaths to do
or to lorbear to do certain acts, and then to
grant indulgences to men to tamper with
and violate these solemn obligations, it is
time fyr good men to cry out in alarm.
Whence has Tom Ford derived tie pow.
er to absolve men from the binding obliga
tion Of solemn oaths? Who gave him the
Ipower to annul the most sacred appeals to
Almighty God, that hun an beings can
make? And Jet from The sworn testimony
of Witnesses in court Of justice il appears
llbat he assumed 10 do this, and men stood
up in court Of justice and violated these
oaths, declaring that they felt no compunc-
lion Of conscience for doing SO, because OF
tie all a5solving power Of Tom Ford's in
Idulgence. One Of the most solemn char
ges KNEW Nothingism has urged against
the Pope Is thatonce his predecessors gran.

and what they charge upon The Pope.
