SEEING FALSE BRANDY.-A serious commo-
ton was produced upon the "bogus" French
brandy manufacturers in this meridian on Fri
day last by the vigilance of Mr.. E. B. Hart,
the surveyor of the port. 1t has been the Gus
tom, it seems, for long time to make the
casks here, as well as the false eau de Uie, and
by means of imitation brands to sell and ship
them as genuine imported" Surveyor Hart
seized forty five such casks alongside the YES
eel in which they were shipped to distant
port. They were American casks, but the
hoops were really of the French willow, which
gave them sufficiently Gallo appearance
Instead of the custOm-honse brand they had
an ingenious imitation on them, viz: 'New
York, March, 1S54-Lucy Jones-Bordeaux
j. Ochrane, surveyor" Mr.. Cochrane's
name was Intentionally spelled in this manner
to avoid prosecution, and is often spelled by
these importers in a variety of ways for the
same purpose. The seized casks, which were
the property of large distillery firm in this
city and Williamsburg, were deposited in the
cellars of Nos. 81 and 20 Pine street, but were
released yesterday by the collector, as no fraud
could really be put in evidence by the Gov
eminent. 1t appears that we are not by any
means the only nation humbugged with ficti-
tious beverages.-N6lo York Mercury.

The Cnokeville Times Of the 9Th inst.

The Cookeville Times, OF the 9Th inst, says:
On the night of the 9Th and 2sth ult. mob
assembled in our quiet and peaceable village for
the purpose of breaking upon the Jail and execu-
ting negro boy, who is under sentence of death
for attempt 10 commit rape on the person of
white girl in Scott county some four years ago.
Said boy belongs TO gentleman in Wayne eouu-
ty, Ky. He was brought TO our county some two
yesrs ago, and st the August Term Of the Circuit
Court in 1855, was convicted and sentenced TO be
hung. But the decision was reversed by the Su-
preme Court. At the August Term of last year he
was tried and convicted again. But new trial
was obtained, and he still remained in Jail.
At the last term Of the court be was tried again,
and as usual, found guilty and sentenced to be
hung. But the case was referred to the Supreme
Court, which sits at Nashville in December next.
On the night of the 9th ut. small company
Of persons assembled in the vicinity OF town for the
purpose, as was ascertaned, Of executing the SEN
tence of the law upon said boy. But our Judicious
Sheriff. the Jailor being from home, managed so as
to prevent any violence being done to him.
On the following night much larger crowd, say
forty or fifty persons assembled at an early hour 10
the night in the suburbs of the town to make an
other onset. Some of the mob were armed with
clubs, some with guns, hammers, sledges, etc.
And some bad their persons disguised by having
their coats on inside out. their caps pulled down
upon their faces heads tied up with handkerchiefs
etc., etc.
The onset was made and an attempt to bre k
open the jail. But the Sheriff, by the aid of our
citizens, who assembled to prevent any violence
inteTfered .and deferred the mob from further pro
ceedings And after lingering about few hours
they dispersed.
Had the rioters been as resoIute the citizeni
who summoned to guard the jail, the proba
biiity is general would have ensued, ant
lives lost. Since that occurrence the negro ha;
been removed to Nashville to await the decision o
the Supreme Court.

MRS. GENERAL GAINEs.-We learn from the Phil
adeiPhia Evening Journal that Mrs. General Gaines,
who for years past has withstood the combined eff
forts OF lawyers and enemies to ruin her, visited
Philadelphia on Friday last and Instituted inqu-
ries to obi some facts relative to the time of the
death of her grandmother Clark, who long lived in
Germantown, and whose remains now lie in the
lower cemetery of that place. She says she has
been in court tWenty-three years-has completely
gained her cause, and all she has got to do to OBJ
tain possession of her fathers property is simply to
institute suits of ejectment, which will be done
less a satisfactory compromise is effected. Mrs.

ever.

Preserving a Revolutionary Relic.

Hon. John Jay has recently purchased the
house situate in the town of Lewisboro', West
chester county, in which Major Andre, the
spy, was confined subsequent to his intercept
ton at Tarrytown, by Paulding, Williams, and
Van Vert. The building is a one story plain
structure, with basement or high cellar I'M
derneath, and is in good state of preserva-
ton. MIR. Jay has stepped in in good time te
secure and perpetuate this object of revoiu-
tionary interest, which, In common with TOO
many others OF q smila- character all over
the country, have thus far been suffered TO go
unreclaimed.-N T. Times 3D.

State bonds due January l, 1857. To redeem
these bonds law passed authorizing the Fund
Commissioners to borrow the amount, which they
did by selling issue Of State stocks. The
question then arose, who shall take of the
money and attend to the business of redeeming
said stocks. The fusion officers soon decided this
question by selecting the New York Agency Of the
