ARREST AND EXAMINATION OF COUNTERFEIT
ERs.-John Johnston, who, as our readers have
already been informed, was arrested on Satur-
day for passing counterfeit half dollars and
fiye-franc pieces, was examined yesterday, be-
fore U. S. Commissioner Newhall.
Previous, however, to his examination, US.
Deputy Marshal Manson, together with Officers
Bloom, Woods and Ricketts,, arrested a man,
named Fredino Hendricks, at the Ohio and Mis-
aissppi Railroad Depot, who afterward proued
to be an acoomplce. In his carpet-sack they
found about 81 900 in fvefranc pieces, quar-
ters and halves of American silver coin, to-
gether with some quarter-eagles; and, having
learnt from him that he had occupied a room
on Sixth street, near Baum, they repaired to
the premises, and found dies, molds, crucibles
chemicals, metals, galvauic batteries and all
the paraphernalia of their art strewn about ir
the most magnificent confusion. For three
weeks Johnston and H9ndrcks had been en-
gagged in the manufacture of their coin at thi
establishment, and, having gotten lot of i
ready for the market, they attempted to dis
pose of it and were detected.

the conditions of the sale of the road, and the

piled. The Directors having appointed W.
Key Bond as Receiver, in the place of Eras-
mus Gest, the Court indorsed the selection.

WORTHY P RESENT TO WORTHY MUSICIAN.
Mr.. o. N. Bush, upon behalf of the Sunday
Schools which united and gave a concert last
week, at Smith & Nixon's Hall, presented Mr..
Charles Schoppelrei with a beautiful, ebony
baton as an evidence of their appreciation of
his merit as a composer and conductor. The
following inscription was finely engraved upon
piece of silver which encircled it near the
middle: "From Pilgrim, German, Union and
Second Mission Sunday Schools, to Charles
schoppelrei, Conductor at their Concert, April
81, 1859" The baton is quite elabOrately, but
at the same time tastefuly, gotten up, and is a
Aattering testimonial to worthy and accom-
plished musician.

THE PR ESS.
Popular Sovereignty.

"His (Douglas') doctrine of Popular
Sovereignty, as we understand it, is the
most dangerous doctrine that can be as
serted, and one which every American
statesman should set his face against"
Brownson's Review.
The doctrine of popular sovereignty, in
its purity, is the doctrine of the govern
ment of the people-nothing more, moth
ing less. If the DOCTRINE of popular
sovereignty is dangerous popular sover
eighty itself is doubly so; and for the
sake of safety, it is our duty to look some
where else than the people for the right
to create and keep alive a governing
power Indeed, it is incumbent upon us
to reform our system of government i'm
mediately, and to discover, and, if posi-
BILE, inaugurate some instrumentality
which is capable to rule the people, re-
strain their excesses, and direct them how
to 60 to work to govern themselves
People do not know what they are
talking about when they utter such non
sense. In this country, if any amount of
civil freedom, rights of selfgovernment
or power to establish local institutions, is
dangerous, we have mistaken the form Of
polity which naturally bSlongs to us,
That form is only right which is safe
from accident-which continues because
it will continue, and survives, because
until the people are changed, no other is
possible Such is, in every material
g aspect, the case with ours 1t is fitted
to our condition, ideas, popular tempera,
ment and state of progress in civilization.
Therefore anarchy-the only thing that
can be apprehended from the spread Of
popular notions-is impossible. a..
The difficulty in Mr.. DOUGLAS ideas Of
popular sovereignty is, that they are moi
popular enough-that they leave behind
some vestige of unnecessary and ira
tional restraint some trenching of public
power upon the sacred domain of private
right This is not, however, the objection
of Mr.. BRowNsoN His fear is that this
free people will be left too free for theil
. own good. He shivers at the idea o.
taking off any existing and time-honored
yoke, and would, if he could, have the
people still further tied up for fear they
will hurt themselves. He would not ever
q, have free doctrines preached; and like an
ecclesiastic, as he virtually is, would put
apadlock upon the jaws of the preachers
of popular sovereignty, for fear of the
heresy which they would inculcate
v The doctrines of Mr.. DOUGLAS, how,
ever, differ from those of Mr.. BRowNsoN
rather in degree than in kind. The latter
is unwilling that the people should be
left free to govern themselves; the former
is hardly willing. The one has violent
distrust of the virtue of the masses, the
other but weak and doubtful confidence
in it. There is yet needed another and
more consistent apostle of the true doc
trine-one who can see through formt
and organizations, interests and conven
tionalities, and discover and proclaim the
principle that underlies the whole. Sucf
man, if he could be found, would be the
true representative of the principles which
belong to the Presidential canvass of the
year 1860. Whether he will be dis
covered, is another question.

The Schenectady Star deserves credit for
the following: "some say they can not afford
to ADVERTISE In this country, where every
body reads the newspaper, the man must have
a thick skull who does not SEQ that these are
the cheapest and best mediums through which
he can speak to the public, where he is to find
customers. Put on the appearance of business,
and generally the reality will follow. The
farmer plants his seed, and while he is sleeping
his corn and potatoes are growing. So with
advertising. While you are sleeping, or eating
or conversing with one set of customers, your
advertisement is being read by hundreds and
thousands of persons who never saw you, nor
heard of your business, and never would,
had it not been for your advertisements in the
newspaper"

WIFE-wHIPPER SENT TO JAIL.--A man,
named Joseph Dickinson, was arraignod before
Justice John j. McFal, yesterday, upon a
charge Of having been guilty of the inefably
bestial business of beating his wife, on or
about the 2Sth of March. The poor woman
looked as if she had suffered long from his
abuse, and the Justice evidently thought the
charge had been substantiated by the evidence,
and held him to bail in the sum of 5000. He
failed to give security, and was sent to Jail to
await trial at the next term of the Court Of
Common Pleas.

COMPRISING ourselves ignorant of the original
Saxon tongue, we were, nevertheless, some
what surprised at the derivation for Caster"
givon in that venerable and orthodox sheet,
the Cincinnati Gazette, on Saturday last. In
Haydn's "Dates," we think, somewhat diff
Ferent original is, ascIibed to the word Easter,
being none other than that given by Bishop
Short. 1t is this: "Easter comes from the
Saxon Goddess Eostre, who was worshiped
with peculiar honors in April" A rural CO.
temporary quotes from, we believe, theo-
logical dictionary:
"Easter-day is distinguished by its peculiar
name through our Saxon ancestors, who, on
this day, held great feast in honor Of Easter
or Astarte, whose Phenician rites they derived
from the ancient Britons. Easter eggs are a
relic Of those ancient rites"

To the Editor Of the Daily Press:
Pursuant to previous arrangement, a new
order was instituted on Saturday evening,
April %, 1859, under the name Of I. 0. II. f.
Independent Order of Handsome Fellows), on
which occasion twenty-one unshaven men re-
ceived the initiatOry degree of this mysterious
order.
This Lodge is No. l, and assumes the pre-
rogative of G. L. U. 1. o. H. F. (Grand Lodge
of the Universe 1. o. II. F.)
Subordinate lodges will soon be instituted
in all the prominent cities of the United States.
1t is already in contemplation to celebrate the
"Glorious Fourth" in a manner alike worthy
of the order and the occasion.

Forgery. Arrest and Attempted suicide.

Forgery, Arrest and Attempted Suicide
A man, who gave his name as John Adams,
was arrested yesterday, at the instance of Mil
ton Cooper, for having forged draft'in his
name upon j. M. a A. Il. Armstrong, for two
hundred dollars. A Et
Upon being taken to the Ninthstreet Station
house, he stated thathe resided in the northern
part OF this State, and-wSs- on -tis-way home
from California, where he had spent the last
four years. He was without money, and said
he was ashamed to go to his family penniless,
and, after mature deliberation, had resorted to
this method for the purpose of obtaining it.
After he had been confined in the cell, in all
probability for the first time realizing fully
his position, he took pocket-knife and opened
the veins in his wrist, and made at least a
dozen gashes in his throat, in the vain hope
as it will prove--of ending an existence which
must hereafter be moro than ever miserable.
Coroner Cary was called upon, and dressed
tho wounds the unfortunate man had inflicted
upon himself, which, although they will not
prove fatal, give evidence of desperation, and
are quite painful. The wounded man is in
the County Jail, where he will await a trial
before the Court Of Common Pleas.

DEATH OF PRESIDENT BUoHANAN's NIECE
On Thursday last, Miss Fanny j. Yates,
daughter of DR.. Charles M. Yates, of Mead
Vile, Pa, died at Cleveland, in the 23d year
of her age. The Democrat says, that having
been q sufferer from youth, she had, on that
account, the more closely intwined herself
around the Presidents heart, and was by him
more nearly regarded as favorite child than
as more distant relative.
In the hope Of relief from the attacks of that
fell destroyer, the consumption, the lovely suf-
ferer, year since, visited the water cure es-
tablishnent in Cleveland, where she remained
until death ended her sufferings. The inmates
: of the water-cure all speak Of the loss as one
that is irreparable, for the sweetness of temper
and Of patience evinoed during her long con
tinued suffering had won all hearts.
President Buchanan must feel most keenly,
amid the cares of State, the loss of the loved
one, from whom he had parted but twelve
months before, with high hopes that his
adopted daughter might be spared to him to
o. be the solsce Of his age, when in retirement at
Wheatland. But
