\ HEAVY DEFALoATIoN.-Mr AIherton,
teller in the Southern Bank at ST. Louis,
was discovered, on Monday last, to be de-
fauter to the amount of $4,000. The ap-
preparation had been going on for long
while, and was accomplished by his neglect
ing, after having noted deposits of money
in the Bank Books Of individuals or firms,
to carry the same into the books Of the
bank. OF course, he kept all the tickets,
and whenever it became necessary TO make
the deposit OF one individual good, he
would draw upon another, and in thi;
way, ~ the end OF his career, he had en-
bezzled fifty thousand dollars As
this sum did not go into the books of the
bank, it was not easy 10 detect the defalca-
ton, Everything, on the monthly examin-
ations, appeared square enough, but one of
the book-leepers found himself nj a loss TO
account for some of the entries, and then
followed the explosion Most OF the money
had been loaned to brother n-aw and in
vested. Tic evidence of these debts and
property were transferred to the bank so. as
TO make it safe. The defaulter was sent 10

nN. The only remarks we hsveto make
upon the following card is, that we had
seen the charges against Mr.. Kurt made in
the strongest terms and repeated week after
week, aad no positive contradiction of them
made by himself and no efficient steps taken
to vindicate his character from the injurious
effects. We, moreover, had heard some of
the oldest and most respectable citizens Of
Gibson county, who had known and acted
politically with Mr.. Kurtz for ten and if
teen years, express their belief in the truth,
of the charges, ! If Mr.. Kurtz was willing
to place himself upon his dignity, and pre-
tend that charges made by man who had
been elected by his w-citizensto the high
est Offices in the county, were not worthy
of a netice, he ought not to complain that
strangers at a. distance, misinterpret his
silence. No one furnishes skeletons for this
paper, nor uses it as an instrument for per-
sonal malignity. We publish nothing in
itscolumns, as editorial, but what we write
and have some good evidence to believe to
be true. Mr.. Kurtz ought to be aware that
he charges made against him, and hereto
fore treated with so much indifference by
him, have made an unfavorable impression
even in the minds of his friends. At a
period when populations in public Offices are
So rife and public suspicion so active against
all who have grown rich while holding pub
lie trusts, he has been unjust to his own
characterize not bringing his accusers at once
to the proof of their charges. Because Mr..
Phillips is unable to pay heavy pecuniary
penalty for his SANDERS, it is no reason why
Mr.. Kurtz should give him a free license to
reiterate and perpetuate his falsehoods. We
have none but the kindest personal feelings
for the proprietor of the Clarion, and shall
rejoice in the complete yindication of him.

and our columns are at his service for the

any personal feelings. We are glad that
Mr.. K. has ut last been aroused to the neces.
sity of making a defense, and if our article
has been the Indictment Dit, what we have
saidwill be, eventually of essential service
to him. While he is waiting for " men o
substance to repeat the charges, to entail
upon themselves gratuitous and-vexatiou

odious by the Phillipses and Hesters; for il

following language -
Lastly, fellow citizens, let me advert
TO the fact tha; should be elected Cover

tute o6fci be the commander-in-chel Of
her forces. My experience in military
affairs is exceedingly scanty, however. In
early life | was elected captain of horse

inquired if there was any one in the neigh.
borhood who bad any osls TO be trod out,
and being informed that there was no such

InCen,liaries About.

As though our county had not been suf-
ficiently cursed Of late with the vile mis-
creanls who only roam through the world
TO be plague spot in their pathway, II
would appear that wicked horde have
fallen in upon us. We have noticed for
some weeks accounts in our neighborng
exchanges OF fires without number, more
especially Of barns, stables, wheat rlcks,
hay and straw piles. all rewarded as the
work of incendiaries.
The first bold and daring attempt ofihis
character which has happened in our
county recently was on Tuesday last.
Some bold incendiary, in the broad face of
day, betw cen the hours of 9 and 10
o clock sci fire 10 the wheat ricks and
straw piles of the Hon. Wm. Lucas, with
in a few feet of the turnpike leading from
Charlestown TO Hsrper's Ferry. This
was done at time when Col. Robt. Lu-
cas- was overlooking the operation Of
threshing bur short distance from the
point where the torch of the incendiary
tad been concealed. The. loss amounts
to over S40O, and no clue as yet to the
guilty incendiary has teen obtained. He
is presumed to be a white man, and Col.
l.. thinks he saw him leaving the premi-
ses. Our citizens in all portions of the
,Ounty shoLld be on their guard day and
night, as frum what is occurring around
rs, we fear this is but the beginning OF
he evil.-Spirit Of J.Ders0n.

SALEM, OHIO, NOV.

Everybodyds anxious 10 learn all pos
sble particular : relative to the participants
in the Harpers Ferry affair, and | am
wiling 10 cont1 buie my mite Of lnlorma'
ton.
The young ban Edwin Coppic (im-
properly printd Coppie) is a native OF
this place, wi 9ere he resided until some
seven years agb, when he went TO Iowa.
He was left am orphan at an early age, land
was provided With home in the family
Of Observation-Disclosures, friend of the
Coppc family, lwho were also Quakers.
He remained atilhis place some two or
three years, xRbiiing during that time
such evidende df depraved and vicious
nature that his Henefactor did not feel il
his duty TO befri&nd him further. and turn
ed him loose. After few years more,
spent in various places. he at last went 10
Iowa, where he iemained until the com.
mencement Of troubles IN Kansas, when
he emigrated 10 that Territory, returning
again 10 Iowa aflbr peace was restored.
One who knew i'm in Iowa, after he had
attained to manhood, informs me that he
enjoyed the reru IsliOn Of a reckless, dare
devil fellow poss sssing much more phys
icaI forlitude thai principle. After the
cessation of troubles in Kansas, he was
engaged with BROWN in running off slaves
from Missouri. Spme few months since
he passed through Mis- place on his way
East, as he said, and spent several days
here with his former scquaintances. Itis
probable that he was then on his way to
Join Brown. l..

WAYLAND, Mass, Oct. &c, 1859.
DEAR CAPTAIN BEdwN
Though personally unknown to you,
YOU will recognize in Imy name an earnest
friend Of Kansas, when circumstances
made that territory ihf battle ground be-
tween the antagOnistS principles OF slave
~ and freedom, which politicians so valnly
strive TO reconcile in the government OF
the United States.
Believing in peace principles, cannot
svmpalhze with tn ! method you chose
10 advance the cause of freedom. But |
honor your generous intentions. au-
mire your courage, Ihoral and physical. |
reverence you for the humanity which
tempered your ZEAL symPaihlze with
your cruel bereavemdhts, your suiierlngs,
and your wrongs. In briel, love you
and bless you.
Thousands Of hear S are throbbing With
sympathy, as warm Is mine. | think of
you night and day, bleeding in prison, sur
rounded by hostile (acfs, sustained only
by trust in God, and your own strong
heart. ! long to nurse you, TO speak 10
you sserly words of sympathy and con
ISOLATION. have asked permission Of Gov
ernor Wise to do so. If the request is not
granted, | cherish the hope that these few
words may at least aeh your hands, and
afford YOU some little solace! May you
be strengthened by thd conviction that no
honest man never sheds blood for eedom
in vain, however much he may be misIa-
ken in his efforts. May God sustain you,
and carry you through whatsoever may
be in store for you.
Yours with hear!fe i respect, sympathy
and affection,
