TEsrBssEr MoyEy.-we find the following para


graphs in the Louisville Courier of Wednesday:
Our brokers have not been buying Tennessee
money this week. for the simple and substantial
reason that they have no Kentucky money with
which to buy it. Many persons not aware of the
real cause, have supposed the money was not good,
and in consequence it almost impossible to pass
il In any ordinary business transaction yesterday.
There is 10 doubt but Tennessee money is perfectly
geod. and our people are standing greatly In their
own light in forcing it out Of circulation here. Let
1t be taken in al ordinary transactions as usual,
and there will be no trouble. The brokers' offices
were beseiged yesterday by poor women and men,
frightened almost of their wits, who were fool
ishly Offering their Tennessee money at heavy dis
count for gold and silver.
telegraphic despatch reached here yesterday,
directing the Louisville and Nashville Stage Office
10 receive the notes Of the Bank Of Nashville for
passengers fare from Louisville TO Nashville. We
should like to have a despatch from some place d.
recting everybody TO take Tennessee money, for
really there don't seem to be enough Of any other
kind Of currency aoat to pay for something to eat
and something to wear.

graceless villains protesting to be Ministers
of the Gospel capable of such conduct, bu
1 can heartily wish you an exception te
such hypocrites.
When you gave out that you were 9
Presbyterian Minister, you expected, Ipre
sumo, to see all hands raised in holy hor-
ror at their sacrilege; but my friend, we
had good reason to believe that the boy
told the truth, and your vacilating conduct
confirmed me in that belief-having at
first denied seeing the knife and then af-
forwards admitting that you had done So.
You also hold out that you were persecu-
ted on account of your religion, being a
Minister you know Elf, there was no allu-
sion made to your religion or profession by
any one in the company; and in your insin-
uations on this subject you attempt to con-
vey false impressions, evidently, for base
purpose.
AS to the characters of the persons you
attempt to stigmatize, they will not suffer
with yourself. With good will wishing
you future peace and happiness.
l remain, Sir, yours &C.,

pondent of the Fon du Lac Union, who
has recently visited thePrison at Waupun
says of it.:
The wing of the Prison is 2O6 feet long
by SO wide, So feet high, and containing
$50 cells, the size of which are about by
8 feet with stone over head, below,and or
either sides, SO that it Is impossible to sci
them on fire. The main building is in
the course of construction, aud when fin
ished will be substantial and beautiful
edifce; it is IS feet long by ~ wide and
to be 81 feet high.
There are at present 1876 prisoners in
the prison for various crimes, and it is re-
ally amusing to see thalfrM the morning
when formed into sections of 10 or IL
each, march of, each gang to their occups-
ton. | noticed that one of these gangs
were heavily ironed; ard put to work at
hewing rough stone, l understand for bad
behavior. Their is one old man among
the number who is in for life,an is Grip
pie, and appears TO be as determined and
unrelenting as when he first entered the
prison.
The sentinels upon the walls, and the
prisoners beneath them scattered in pro
fusion over the ground, clothed in sui
IF two strips of black and grey joined to
gether, is sight we'll worth gazing upon
The prison grounds are located upon {
beautiful knoll sloping gradually away
in the distance from the prison building.
