EgT Several ten dollar counterfeit bills
on the Hatters' Bank, of Connecticut, were
passed in Columbus last week, by n mar
making purchases in the city. A day or
two afterwards the police went in pursuit
of the gentleman who was arrested at Rey-
n~oldsburgh in that county-the counterfeit
ter proving to be no less a parsonage than
DR.. Carol, a practicing physician of that
village. He was arrested at his W house,
and on his person were found some seventy
dollars of the counterfeit bills besides some
counterfeit coin. A carpet and a Folio
Bible purchased by him at Columbus,
were also found in his house. He is now
in limbo at Columbus.

New YORK, May I6.

Herald Correspondents, Washington.
May, l5,-Mr. Haldeman, editor of the
Louisville Courier, an old line Wing, has
been appointed Collector of Louisville, vice
the present incumbent, a Democrat, re-
moved. This morning the General land
office forwarded Instructions TO its agents in
Kansas for the sales of the Iowa and other
trust lands, to at Iowa Point
X. T., on the Sd proximo, under the super
vision of Hon. Norman Eddy, special com-
missioner.
Attorney General Black has given an
opinion that the government should grant
an absolute fee simple patent to the Chris
tian Indians on their private character for
their land purchased by the government.
This will be the first instance in which any
government has recognized the right OF
Indians to the fee in land. The Commis-
sioner appointed on The fitness of Blythe
Island, Ga, for a naval depot, have replied
favorbly. Congress appropriated 100000
for the purchase.

WORSE AND WoRsE.-Our readers will
remember the case of Thompson, fran
dolph, Ia, who was lately arrested on a
charge of causing the death ola child,
found in n field, near Carlisle station some
time this spring. Thompson is now in
the jail of Warren county, in this State
awaiting his triale. The mother ofthe child,
who was a ward of Thonpson's and lived
with him, has died since his arrest. 1t
now appears that Thompson wrote to his
wife that sunless the girl was put out Of
the way, it would go hard with him." and
it is now believed that her death was eaus-
ed by poison administered by Mrs. Thomp-
son. The body of the girl has been disin-
tered, and the stomach is now in the hands
of physicians to test the presence or absence
ofpoison. Mrs. Thompson had not been
arrested at last accounts.

WISCONSIN ELEcrIoN.-Wisconsin and
Michigan nave most nobly set exam
Piles for the Free States, il their Spring
elections. Michigan nearly m up to
her grand Republican majority of last fall,
and Wisconsin, on a light vote, has even
done better. The official returns give Mr..
Wilton, for Chief Justice, a majority of
1880! The majority for Fremont last
fall was 1921. Mr.. Wilton is not only
an able but an upright Judge, and The peo-
of the State have most thoroughly endors-
ed his decision on the infamous Fugitive
Slave law, when the attempt was made to
enforce its odious provision in Wisconsin.

QUrrE L1KELY.-Our neighbor of the

ocratic paper is to be started here. Perhaps
so. Our authority was a Democrat, and
that some of the members of that party
wu lie, is demonstrated through tho col

an extraordinary genius, to have accomplish

WHEAT IN TENNEssEE.-Tennessec is
rapidly becoming n of the largest wheat
growing States in the Union. For sew
eral years past large quantities Of wheat
from this State, have been brought to mar
ket at New York, in good condition, be-
fore the wheat fields of the Northern
States were ripe enough for reaping, and
it has sold so readily and at so high a
price that the cultivation has been largely
increased. The Knoxville Wing says there
is a good prospect of a crop in that State
this year, which will astonish the natives.
If the weather continues good till harvest,
it is estimated that the thirty counties in
East Tennessee will realize two millions of
dollars from the sale of their wheat.

Es-Two or three years ago, Berry Hill,
Neal Mccoy and Benjamin Biggs went on
a spree in Vienna, Ala, Hill having in his
possession a large sum of money. Late IN
the night, Mccoy and Biggs returned home
without Berry, and it was supposed they
had murdered him for his money. The
matter was brought into court; circum-
stances were overwhelmingly against the
men and they ran away and have not been
since seen. But a few days since Hill re-
turned, alive and well. II the suspected
men see this paragraph, they may know the
ban is removed from their names.

The Famine in Michigan.

At the meeting held last evening at the
city Hotel, to consider what meal should
be used for the relief of the destitute in
Northern Michigan, a citizen Of Gratoit

children had died Of starvation. He gave

city to purchase provisions, $1,000 of which
was subscribed in the hall,

much agilatcd on the subject Of the comet,
into n terrible fright. The alarm bells
were rung and the fire engines brought out,
and the excitement and confusion for n few

that the comet had struck, and that the

of calling out the engines under such cir
