Counterfcite Caught at Work.

John Sutclf and Robert Warrax, two ex-
ceedingly bad cha racters in Steubenvlle, were
caught in their den known as the American
House, in that city, few days ago by officers
who were on the watch, Warrax being found
with the mouds in his hands, tumbling out the
counterfeit quarter dollars. The Steubenvile
Herald says:
Upon the bench were the requisite tools,
implements, dies, DC, for making various de-
scrptOns of coin--upOn the floor, and else
where bogus coin was heaped up by the bushe
and materials to make it out of, lay around

heated up, upon which the bogus metal was

Just now there is general upheaving Of
New York stomachs at Crolon Water. 1t has
a peculiar taste, after standing some time ac-
quires am acid smell, the sediment is greater
than usual, and it is quite undrinkabe Some
of the reported causes are that three men were
found drowned in the Reservoir; that the pipes
are filled with dead ellis, fish, &c. and that the
liquor sellers have put something in the water
in revenge for closing their front doors on Sun
day The Crolon is made up Of water that
comes from small lakes surrounded by large
swamps, and by some the bad taste is attrbu-
ted to the decaying of vegetable matter

and contains four hundred Messages. The
Statement is verified on oath before U s. Con-

Newfoundland OF its failure the Herald
says.
When the cable was 10 process Of manufac

lour large watts, and there left exposed day
after day, to the heat of a summer sun, which
was intensified by the tarred coating Of the
cable to one hundred and twenty degrees This
went on, day after day, with the knowledge OF
the engineer and electrician Of the company,
although the directors had given explicit or
ders that sheds should be erected over the watts
TO prevent the possibility Of such an occur
renee. As might have been forescen, the gut
Ia purcha was melted, so that the conductor
which it was desired to insulate was so twisted
by the coils that it was left quite bare in num-
ieress places, thus weakening and eventually
when the cable was submerged, destroy ing the
insulation. The injury was partially discovered
before the cable was taken out # the factory
at Greenwich, and a length of about thirty
miles was cut out and condemned. This, how
ever, did not wholly remejy the difficulty, for
the defective insulation became frequently and
painfully apparent while the cable being
submerged. Still further evidence Of its con
ditlOn was afforded when it came t. be cot up

Arrangements are being perfected under the
auspices of the indefatigable Mr.. Field for the
construction and laying Of new ocean cable
1t is to be Of a new and improved form, the
condctor to be composed of strand of seven
wires, about double the thickness of the con-
ductor Of the first cable. The advantages will
be greater strength in the copper wires of
which the core, or conductor is composed, and
a more rapid transmission of messages The
Herald states that two vessels are now being
built for the express purpose of laying cables,
and that the British Government will give the
services of two steamers as escorts, and fur
nlsh as many men as may be required.

A remarkable phenomenon occurred IN Troy,
N. Y, and vicinity, about A. M. of the llth.
The sky was cloudIess, the air still, when there
was a terrific detonating report, accompanied
apparently by two sharp echoes. Houses were
shaken, the ground vibrated under the feet and
workmen dropped their tools and looked up to
the sky to see what was the matter. The eX-
plosiou was heard with equal force at Greenbush,
Scodack, &c and at Bennington, over thirty
miles distant A powder mill explosion was at
first the supposed cause, though none occurred,
and the startling report seemed to come from
the sky.

urlnking ana Gambling flecea
The pupts Of Cleveland gave echo to the
public voice on Sunday last agaiust the rum
selling and gambling holes or bells Of our city.
I do not intend 10 dctract a note or n tone from
their thupders. would rather, ~ possible,
swell their utteranccs, till they should sound
abroad like "the voice Of many waters" What
desire to do is to call attention to the guilt Of
the sober, temperate part Of community, for
the death Of not only E. 4 Sterling, but Of
many others of lees note also for the moral
degradation Of hundreds, if not thousands still
living.
Five years ago, an association for prosCcut-
ing the liquor sellers, (the zeal ustigators Of
gambling,) was set into operation. 1t was eff
lective to a good degree, and lad not the Com
mittee entrusted with the enforcement Of the
law become discouraged by one or two failures,
every one retailing intoxicating drinks con
trary to the present Democratic Law, would
have qiVen up the business within less than
thirty days, and the ameuted E 7, Sterling
would haye cohtinucd to this day living, sober,

favorable for enforcement than it was then, for

witnesses cannot be tamperej with now
as they could then, when all these suits had
to be brought before the Proba Court or be-
fore a Justice Of the Peace, and then, though
successful there, had still to be carried up TO
the Court of Common Pleas. Consequently,
if an jbOdy desires to enforce the law against
the retailers of Internal drinks they will now
find 1t a comparatively easy task; but 1t should
not in my opinion be done unless with the
concurrence Of large majority Of the wealthy
and influential citizens, who should endorse
and aid the movement, and make it Pcrma-
nent Institution. Then our city W ud be
"a city set on hill" In such mo Vemcnt as
this, some, even Of our hotel keepers themselves
would rejoice, who are now obliged as they
think to furnish these drinks to their customers
OF else lose their patronal e. No man pretend
ing to the least Observ nee of the teachings Of
Jesus but would contribute to a permanent en-
tOrccment OF the law. Nor do ] know Of a de
cent man in the city who is not nolo IN favor Of
stopping the Internal traffic.
TFMPERANCE.

The Democrats of Alabama have achieved a
glorious victory and are entitled to the position
Of the Banner State of the South The States
yet tn elect may range themselves along side
of her; bat they cannot claim the palm. lhe
most strenuous efforts were made to defeat the
regular nominees by the UltTaists, and the va
rious grades of the Opposition, because they
would not discard Douglas and the doctrine Of
Popul7r Sovereignty DEALER.
Such is the deception and blow of tn Doug
las organ here to keep courage up. Now the
Charleston Is o. News, a Democratic journal,
may be presumed to be quite as well posted in
Alabama Democracy as the Dealer. In COM
menting on the recent election it says:
"In Alabama the Democrats have carried the
Governor and all the members Of Congress-
but there Il is the success Of the Southern Rights
Democracy"
That is. emphatically triumph Of a Slave
Code and the African Slave Trade. Southern
Rights Democracy has now no other defni-
ton.
Again, the Alabama Democratic ultimatum
is thus put forth. The Huntsville Democrat,
edited by }. W. Clay, brother of United States
Senator Clay, of that State, thus explicitly
states the conditions upon which, and upon
which only, Alabama will support the nominee
of the Charleston Conventions
"No nominee of the Charleston Convention
can obtain our support unless the platform
adopted shall substantially recoguiz the con
stitutional rights Of the South on the Sl"very
question, laid down by the Supreme Court
in the Dred scott decision, to wit: that Slavery
is recognized in the Constitution, and that 1t is
the duty of every department of the Federal
Government, Congressional, Judicial, and Ex
ecutive to guard and protect it; and unless TIE
antecedens of the nominee are such as to justl-
iy the belief that he will be safe custodian
OF the rights of the South under the Constl-
tuition"
Mr.. Forsyth, Mr. Buchanan's late Minister
to Mexico and now editor of the Mobile Regis
ter leading Democratic journal OF Alabama,
endorses the morality and necessity Of the
African Slave Trade, and urges the repeal of
all laws interdicting the accursed traffic. The
Register was a jealous worker in achieving
the GLORIOUS victory" the Dealer claims for
Douglas and Popular Sovereignty"
