The editor Of the She pherds,own Reg
lister, having placed himself in the service
Of some Of the Shylocks of the Shepherds
town Bridge corporation. bores his read
ers with half column TO show that we
have done wrong" because we stated
that the military companies from Harpers-
Ferry were charged toll in crossing the
bridge when visiting that town for the
purpose OF joining the Regimenial parade.
As we are satisfied the citizens Of the
town were not participants in the act re-
ierreG to, we leave the editor of the Reg
lister to reap all the consolation which can
be derived from the rery liberal acts Of
money mongers.-Free Press.
IS We rather guess that we have
"bOref' the editor of the Free Press
more than We have bored our readers,
Judging from the tone Of portions Of the
above paragraph, and is now ,Dmcing
and squirting under the effects Of it.
Alier having committed himself in one or
TWO instances, we presume he has retired
from The field deeply penilent OF the
"error of his ways" alter having eXhaUs
ted all his ammunition IN trying 10 discuss
the subject properly. He also tries 10
smooth things ouer in several instances,
but il is of no avail. Mr.. Editor. A the
cra'cj fishing you can put forth will not
avail you anything in this instance. What
you say first, say last, and don't, in your
article of penience now throw the whole
matter upon tie Bridge Company and
especially you ought 10 have exercised a
degree Of dignity before using The VERY
UNJUST and slang phrase, Money
Mongers." This is cognomen which
Is vastly foreign 10 9 civilized and respec-
table people, and should be resented.
We would inform the editor that we
were not hired by The Company 10 advo'
cate their rights, but we deemed il our
duty 10 vindica,e the Company from a
charge which was out OF place, uncalled
for and highly unjust.
We would also ad wise our friend that
when he pays Shepberdstown another
visit TO keep little dark or he might be
treated to a coat Of something sticky
which would no, feel very pleasant.

HoHowoys Pile, an extraordinary
Remedy for Determination OF blood to the
Head. - Henrietta Wright, Of Newburg,
New York, suffered most excessively for
eight years and half from determination
of blood to the head. so bad at times that
she would fall down in crossing room as
if dead. She consulted three different
physicians, and stIdlously followed their
advice, which however failed 10 benefit
her, and her dissolution was hourly expec.
ted. At this time she tried Holloway
Pills, which quickly did their work, by
removing from the system all the noxIous
matter, carrying off the bad Auids, and
left her in the enjoyment Of perfect health,
her friends have all been asroni>hed at the
apparent transformation, yet all this has
been effected by HolIowsy's Pills.

April 4th, during popular demonstration

The Capture of TrnxiIIo by Filibuster
Walker.

A brief dispatch from New Orleans,
published yesterday, announced thai
TruxiIlo had been captured by the nolo-
rious 6libusler, Gen. Walker. The n.
Y. Commercial, in referring TO the repor'
ted capture, says:
Truxillo, as probably most Of our read.
ers know, is port Of Honduras, on the
Caribbean sea, the harbor Of which is
defended by several forts. Ii has pop
ulalon probably of about FIVE thousand.
1t having been so easily taken is 10 be &C.
counted for, We presume, by the unexpec-
tedness of The attack, the vessel conveying
the assailsnls having passed the forts III
the guise of regular trader. What OBJ
jecI Walker can contemplate by this
movement il is difficult to DIVIDE, but the
result of the operation il is rot difficult TO
anlici pate. The man who twice failed to
achieve permanent footing in Nicaragua
is moi likely TO subdue Honduras, or 10
gain as good footing as he temporarily
had in Nicaragua. With the immediate IN
terest Great Britain has always had IN
Honduras, il is not likely that her naval
officers in that locality Will permit Walker
and his band Of lawless followers 10 plum
der and sack and murder there as
they did in the ghboring republic, nor
will he find the natives themselves as Pu-
silanImousl y Submissive TO their exac-
tons.
The New York Sun is Of opinion that
Walkers intention is TO effect a revolu-
ton in Honduras, where he has some
friends, and after establishing his authori-
ty there, to enter the Nicalaguan territory
and attempt the overthrow Of the govern
ment. The same paper adds:
Honduras offers an inviting field for
fllbuster enterprise. 1t has an area OF
nearly 1000 square miles, and popu-
lation numbering over 100000. The eli
mate, especially in the interior, is salubrl-
Gus, and its mineral wealth, comprising
gold, silver, lead, copper and some OF the
precious stones. is very considerable. lis
extensive forests furnish some OF the finest
timber, such as mahogany and cedar, for
export. 1t also contains numerous fertile
valleys, and abounds in cattle, which are
ughtered by the inhabitants for food.
The government of Honduras is Tepub-
lican. 1t has Legislative Chamber and
a Senate, the members of which are cleo
ted by the people The two Chambers
cleo, the President. There is, So Gar as
we know. no discomfort with The govern
ment among the people, and they are en-
Toying a greater degree Of comfort than
The inhabitants Of any other Central
American State. We cannot, therefore,
believe that General Walker, who has so
recklessly disturbed their peace, and
whose aim would seem TO be plumber, |
will 6rd many parIisans among The Hon
durans. Indeed, we hop9 that he will
now meet the fate Of a bandit, and never
return again to disgrace the country Of his
birth.

three weeks ago, was captured near Gum
cy, Franklin County, Pa. on Monday

captured J. E. Cook, one of old John
Browns confederales. The horse was
found near Boonsboro', Nd, about a
week since. having been left in that mel h-
borhood when 'Fom was taken on his way
10 Pennsy lvania. Tom was delivered to
his owner, at cost Of 1925, and taken
through this town on Wednesday on his
way South, seeming much affected and
peniten, Tor the course he had pursued,
and made a full confession of the whole
plot by which he was persuaded and IN
duced TO leave his master. by white per-
son who conveyed him 10 the Mountain
near BoonsbOro', Md, where he was han.
ded over 10 another party, and so on Until
he reached Pennsylvania. and was finally
captured. The affair seems TO have been
a welI.conceived scheme for mercenary
motives, and the circumstances demand an
Investigation, and the guilty parties dealt
with according to the extreme penalty
Of the law. A slaves testimony in this
instance is legal evidence against the Of
Tending party, the law having been estab'
lished by recent act of our Legislature.
