Knapp, who has for several years devoted him
self solely to giving instructions that will enable
any one to detect at glance any counterfeit or

happy to wait upon all who may wish to obtain
that knowledge which will protect them from be.

Mr.. Knapp has the highest testimonials III
favor of his system, from merchants, bankers,

South Carolina, headed the party. A. Moore,
one of the murderers OF Brown, helped make
the arrests.
Messrs. Moore and Parrot were arrested
while conversing with Mr.. Sherman. Mr..
Sherman asked if it was by legal process they
had taken one of the Clerks Of the Commits

had no legal authority, but that he would ar
rest the men down on his list.
Many others have been taken. The town

LBeIsLATIvE.-The Senate, yesterday, held
short session. The only business of importance
transacted was the reference to the next Legisla.
ture of the resolves concerning the improvement
of the northerly shore of South Boston.
The House adopted an order to make up the
pay roll to and including Saturday next. So
there is little prospect of final adjournment un-
til that day.
The resolves in aid of the sons and daughters
of Massachusetts, in Kansas, came up agreeable
to assignment and were further discussed. Some
of the members who had previously voted for the
resolution, expressed their determination, on
more mature consideration, to vote against then
and they were finally laid on the table by vote
of 1873 yeas to 129 nays.

ANOTHER ASSAULT IN PRosPEcT-TheWa
ington correspondent of the Boston DAILY ADDER
tiSey, under date of June I'd, says:
"Rumors are ahoat that Mr.. Morgan, rep.
resentatiye from New York, will be attacked
for calling Brooks a coward. His colleagues
stand prepared to defend him.
The following is the speech to which Mr..
Brooks's friends take exceptions. It was made
at the N. Y. Tabernacle:
Gentlemen Il have but single word TO
say. have never addressed public assem-.
bly,; and this, of all places in the world. is the
last place to make the first attempt. ("Go
on, go on, go on" and applause.) 1t was by
the merest accident that l entered the great
slaughter house at Washington. applause
Business called me there. While in CONVEX
sation with colleague and one of the press
of this city, heard the first and second blow
upon our friend Summers head. Instantly
my friend with myself pressed forward 1t
was but the impulse of our nature (.good.
good, J, and no credit to any man, because
there is no man that would not have done the
same. ("That's it," and cheers.) Passing
up as rapidly as / could, there 1 saw-from
the instant that l started-from the opposite
| side of the Senate Chamber l saw the blows
repeated from the--what do you call him
| AOAO' lDIutos 'DEuleJ "Drute, HcOWs
ard, coward" 'brute's the word" ego
on, and cheers.) Those blows were given
with all the power that man six feet two or
three inches high could possibly put upon a
poor, unofending man who was fixed upon
his chair, with his feet under the desk, with
no possibility of rising. On the first blow
that was given he became senseless; and up to
the moment l came there l should think ff-
teen or twenty blows had been given-during
the short space Of time-(A voice "He's a
brute )-my friend, Mr.. Murray, who pass
ed in the opposite direction, sprung round and
got there at the same time with myself. and
caught the villain by the arm. cloud cheers,
and cries of GOOD, good-villain, that's the
term no nigger-breeder is better.")
AT the same instant of time, it was nv good
fortune to place myself between the two, and
Icaught Mr.. Sumner and prevented him from
falling violently on the floor. There he laid
as senseless as corpse, for several minutes,
his head bleeding copiousy from the frightful
wounds, and the blood saturating his clothes.
(Shame.) That in short, is the history of the
matter. While standing there, several Sena.
tors and many bystanders were complacentlv
looking on, without the least intention OF
assisting. ("Shame on them.")
Voices-Name them.
Mr.. Morgan-You all know who they are.
l"Name them.') Toombs was one (Groans

Other members were there. That is all, gen

ment will be melted TO Brooks cannot prom

IELEGRAPHIC LIE NAILED.-A despatch
from Washington, June I'd, to the Boston and N.
York press, has the following:
"Every one here thought when the stand
taken by Senator Wilson was made known.
that rencontre would be the immediate con-
sequence. The sequel to the correspondence
should therefore be published. Col. Lane
called on Mr.. Wilson on Friday morning, after
the receipt of Mr.. Wilson reply, and assured
him from Mr.. Brooks that 10 assault upon
him was contemplated, and that he and his
friends might disarm. Mr.. Wilson accepted
these assurances, and appeared in the avenue
without arms and without attendants. The
whole affair is over, so far as they two are
concerned"
To this the Boston Atles replies:
Senator Wilson, who was in our office at
the time this despatch was received, wrote the
following emphatic contradiction of it in every
particular. The despatch is evidently an
apology for Bully Brooks. The coward had
threatened to attack Mr.. Wilson, but, afraid
of resistance, sneaked out of sight, and now,
his friends, with the aid of the telegraph, try
to make him appear magnanimous.
ATLAS OFFICE, Boston, June 8, 1856.
To the Editors ofths Atlas:
Gentlemen-I have read with surprise the tele-
graphlc despatch just received, to the effect that
Gen. Lane called upon me on Friday; assured me
that no assault would be made upon me that
expressed myself satisfied that then appeared
on the street unarmed and without attendants.-
In reply to these statements, have to say that
Ten. Lane did not call upon me on Friday that
he never assured me that an assault would not be
made that never expressed to him my salts
faction; and that was in the Capitol or on the
streets, alone or in the company of friends, on
Thursday, from eleven o'clock, when my note
was finished, to quarter past four O'Clock, and
then from six o'clock to half-past ten o'clock
and also most of the next day, until left Wash.
