From Our Exchanges

Negro woman in Rockingham CO., Va,
lately gave birth to child which was of
sable hue from the loins downward, the up
per part of its body being Of clear white
complexion The physicians are unable to
account for the queer freak Of nature
LOOK orr.-Chicago is said to he filed
with bogus 5s on Chippew" Bank, Pepin,
Wis. The only place in which it differs
from the genuine is in the engravers mark

for it.
An Exchange says that American quar-
tiers Of the date Of l $50 are in circulation in
Canada. They are said 10 be an excellent
imitation of the genuine We would like
to have few of the excellent limitations. +,
Counterfeit gold dollars are in circulation

The trial of Mrs Gardner for poisining
her husband at bingham, Mass, has result
cd in disagreement of the jury mo-
tive was proven against her in her comics
sion Of guilty connection with another man,
so was the purchase Of the poison on her be
halt, and the death Of the husband from the
effects of arsenic was made quite plain. But
there was no more direct evidence of her
guilt, and her conduct claimed M acquittal,
on the ground that it was not proven that
she administered the poison Their theory,
so far a. they had one. was that he took the
poison of his own mother.
| At the Frederick Co. Va. Court. on the
LIST Of Sept, a slave girl II years Of age,
pleaded guilty to poisoning the family OF
Mr.. c. b. Chilcs. Her purpose was to pois-
on lady in the family of Mr. c., but four
others partook Of the poison food and also
suffered severely. The large quantity OF
poison administered, and the timely aid OF
emetics. saved, it is believed, the lives OF
the parties.
the Lafayette Ind. Courier says:
A ludicrous incident took place at the
Junction Hotel, this afternoon. upon the ar
rival Of the train from indianapolis. A
gentleman and lady. inspired with a sudden
recognition, were observed to rush frantic
ally into each others arms, and the fun 81
it was, that after hearty embrace, they
discovered that both had the advantage -
They were strangers, but the lady mistak
ing him for her dear cousin Charley, had
embraced him, while he with half defined
recollection Of having seen her before, went
in lemons and got squeezed Their mutu-
81 embarrassment upon the discovery Of the
mistake, can well be imagined.
CHEAr AND PEENrr.-The Springfield. III.
journal says:
South Of this place on the railroads, some
Of the farmers are offering their corn at 5
cents per bushel in the field; others at Is
per acre. The indications are. unless frost
sets in early, that the corn crop will be
enormously large.
The farmers along the line Of the Chica-
60 and Alton road are beginning the plant
ing Of their fall wheat We noticed on Sat
urday the blowers and harrowers busy at
work in number Of fields between this city
and Alton. 1t is thought . largerbreadth
than ever will be put in this fail.

Washington, Sept. .,
The Attorney General has had under
consideration the case of elias. Crowell or
binary seaman, who, for striking, disobey-
ing and treating with contempt his superb
or officer, was sentenced by Court Mar
tial lately convened in y Y. to three year
Imprisonment in the penitentiary Of the
District Of Columbia, TO be deprived of his
pay, and to be marked with the letter .'D'
on his right hip. The specific question EN-
braced in the reference of the Secretary Of
the Navy, was AS to the legality of the SEN
tence. The Attorney General holds that
there is nothing illegal in it, and it il there
fore to be carried out in every particular.
Although the punishment is severeit is con
sidered that Crowels oifense was of such IL
character that it could not lightly be pussed
over without serious injury to one ofth
most vital elements ofnaval discipline.

Murder Will Out.


About three years since man named
Cyrus Beebe WAS murdered at Columbus,
Ohio At the time of the murder, and ever
since. until within two or three weeks, no
trace could be found that would lead to the
detection Of the perpetrator of the horrid
crime. The ways Of Providence. however,
are mysterious and past finding out. and is
most forcibly Illustrated in the following nc
count Of the discovery and arrest of the
murderer, whish We copy from the Column
bus tOhio) Statesman, Of the LIST inst
JONES, THE MURDERER or CYRUS BEEBE-How
he WAS CAUGHT.
Jones, the murderer Of Cyrus Beebe, was
brought to this city Sunday morning, in
custody Of officers Delavue aud Gillespie Of
Wisconsin, aud lodged in Jail. He was tax
en- before the Mayor yesterday morning. but
rs important witnesses were to be sent for
the examination was postponed until one
o'clock, T. NJ, to-day.
The following are the circumstances con-
nected with the arrest and the confession Of
the murderer, a. related 10 US by the OH
GERS.
William Morgan, alias William Jones and
Samuel jackson, were arrested some three
weeks since, in Monroe, Greene county, Wis
consin, on the charge Of having robbed .
farmer by the name Of Hawthorn, Of fifteen
hundred dollars in gold. Fer want Of proof!
however, they were released from custody
The sheriff Of Greene county not being ga
tisfied with the result Of the examination,
and believing them to be guilty, sent soEe
thirty miles for Mr.. John T. Delavue, . de-
tective police officer, who, upon his arrival,
introduced himself TO the two burglars - q
counterfeiter and after succeeding in gain
ing their confidence, entered into arrange
ments for travelling with them - partner
in the business Of robbery, &c. He then
left them at Monroe under pretense Of going
to another State, TO engage the services Of Z
female to cooperate with them In the bust
ness Of counterfeiting.
Before leaving. however, il was under
stood among the police, that during his Oh
sence Jones and jackson should be re-arrest
ed, and placed under bonds 80 heavy that
1t would be impossible to procure them
which was accordigly done. Upon Della
vue's return he visited the two prisoners il
jail, and accused them Of having " Sloseed On
him" saying that be was suspected by tn
citissns a IL town Of beng ! eoantsg1litsr.

THE HORSE THIEF.--John Garlin,
whom we noticed few weeks since as
having been arrested at Richmond for
stealing a pair of horses of Gen. Pome-
roy of Highgate, appears to have had
some experience in that line before. His
place of residence having been in East
Windsor, CT, enquiry was made to learn
if he had introduced TO that place any
new horses and if so what kind they
were. In reply good description was
given of two grey mares stolen from V.
Hef1on of Franklin in Aug. last. She
riff Mason and Mr.. Hefflon upon visit
ing East Windsor, obtained the mares
and Mr.. Fl. has them now at home,
doubtless pricing them more valuable
than before, though the search has pro-
badly cost him all they are worth.
A man in New Hampshire has obtain
ed bay horse stolen by the same oper-
ator.-,S. Adams Messenger.
