Gry. b. F. BUTLER was sercnaded at Wash.
ington on Thursday evening Of last week,
and made speech as full of fight as he is OF
courage. lie told his hearers If it was ncces-
sary in order to sustain the Constitution and
the Union, Massachusetts, would give every
man in her borders, and every woman, too
that to us of the North our country is first,
because 1t is our country; and our State is
next, and second, because she Is part OF
our country, and our State; our oath of al
legianco to our country and our oath of allie.
glance to our State, are interwreathed harmo-
niously, and never come in conflict nor clash
He who does his duty to the Union, does
his duty to the State, duty to the State and
to the Union, being one and inseparable, now
and forever.
Said Gen. B., the Union must DO preserved
at all hazard of money, and if need be of ev'
cry life this side of the Arctic regions. II
the twenty-five thousand Northern soldier,
who are here are cut of, in six weeks fifty
thousand will take their place, and If they
die by fever, pcstilencc or the sword, quar-
ter of a million will take their place, till our
army of the reserve will be women with their
broomsticks to drive every enemy into the
Gulf.
He had no fear for tho issue; but only
horror and dismay for those who have made
the war. God help them. We are here
for our rights, for our country, for our flag.
Our faces are set South, and there shall be
no footstcp backward. The government
must be sustained and when 1t is sustained
we shall give everybody in the Union their
rights under the Constitution, as we always
have, and everybody outside Of tho Union
the steel Of the Union, till they shall come
under tho Union. Gen. Butler closed amid
great enthusiasm.

On the Goth Of April in an article con-
demnatory of the lawlcss proceedings that
had transpired the week previous, We said
that our neighbor Of the Democrat was pat

the treason in his paper this week has as
sured us that we were mistaken and we take
back what we tlnn said in defence Of hi:
patriotism and loyalty to the Union.

The small size No. l Salamander safe which
L purchased from your agent, Mr.. Adam R.
Bar, in Lancaster City, on July goth, 1858,
has been subjected to a very severe test,
which it withstood in a most satisfactory
manner. This Safe, containing all my books,
together with valuable papers belonging to
myself and some to my neighbors and friends.
and represeting value of over Twenty Thous-
and Dollars, (S2O, O,000) was in my Mill which
was destroyed on the night of the 9th of Ju-
ly, 1860, and passed through the fiery ordeal
unsca.hed The Safe was on the second floor
and fell to the basement of the Mill, and WAS
subjected for six hours to intense heat
among the ruins, which was greatly increased
by the combustion of large quantity of grain
confined within he brick walls. After the
fire the safe was opened and the books and
papers taken out in a state of perfect preser-
vation, the paper not even being discolored- :
This fact was, however, to many bystanders
a better recommendation of your Safes than
could be expressed in any other words from
me. ours Respectfully,

INDEPENDENCE DAY.-It is proposed
by some of our exchanges that the coming
Fourth of July be celebrated in 4 real old
fashioned style throughout the entire
length and breadth Of our land-cxcept-
ing, of course, in the State of South Carroll
ma, where the holiday has been expunged
from the list of ''big days" Under the
circumstances, the proposition is eminent
ly appropriate; for if ever there was
time in the history Of our country when
the patriotism and loyalty of ii free people
should be shown, that time is now, when
our glorious Flag is menaced by Traitors
and the Temple of Liberty is shaken from
turret to foundation-stone. BY all means
let us have a rousing celebration; let the
"Glorious Fourth be observed after the
manner Of our forefathers. Let US, as
patriots and freemcn, show that we appre-
ciate the blessings of civil and religious
liberty. Let US show to the world that
although we can differ on minor questions,
when it comes to the great issue of Union
or Disunion we are now and always will
be for the "Stars and Stripes s'-that
'.Flag of the free hearts hope and home,
BY angel hands to valor given"

Johnstown, and Elijah Fuller, of Mary
land, were arrested in Johnstown on Tues
day of last week, on charge of making
and passing counterfeit money The ar
rest, which was made by the Plttsburg po-
lice, was managed very successfully. In
formation having been conveyed to U. 5.
Marsh Murdoch to the effect that these par
ties were engaged in making and passing
spurious money, several policemen were de-
tailed to make the arrest. They employed
the famous detective, Newcomer, to visit
Johnstown and clay the ropes" lie
accordingly made his debut in that place
under an assumed name, and soon wormed
himself so completely into the confidence
of the suspected parties as to entrap them.
Several Of the defendants admitted to him
that they were in possession of counterfeit
money, and that they manufactured 1t
themselves.
Everything being in readiness, on Tues
day morning, officers Dougherty, Hague,
Fox, Pender and Butler were despatched
to Johnstown, and succeeded in arresting
the above named parties. On them was
found a considerable quantity of counter
felt coin and bills. The prisoners were
taken to Pittsburg on the next train, and
committed to Jail for hearing.
On Wednesday, the examination of
Goughenour came up. Officer Hague tes
tilted to finding counterfeit coin in defen-
dant's store, and Constable Heron testi-
fed to defendants acknowledging to him
that he had spurious dimes for sale. Held
to bail in the sum of $4,000.
Joseph Shoemaker was next brought
up. Officers Butler and Pender testified to
finding spurious money on defendant and
in his house. Held in $4,000 bail.
George Rushaberger was next brought
forward. Heron testified that defendant
sold him five dollars worth of counterfeit
money. Held in $4,000 bail.
j. s Montgomery was next brought
up. Heron deposcd that he got spu-
rious 81 50 gold piece from defendant, for
which he paid him $1.25. Held in 81 900
bail
Elijah Fuller, of Maryland, was next
brought up. Newcomer testified that in
speaking of some counterfeit dimes that
defendant showed him, he (defendant)
said, "I made them myself, and supplied
those men, (mcaning Shoemaker, &c }
Defendant also said lie had die at home.
Held in 81 200 bail
Philip Williams was discharged from
custody, there being no evidence against
him.
Subsequently 70 this, Geo II. Slick,
an innkeeper at SIicksvillc, three miles
from Johnstown, was arrested on the same
charge as above. He was held in $4,000
bail for further hearing Michael She
rer, OF Johnstown, who was also suspected
of completely in the crime, and who had
only dollar and half in counterfeit
money, which he says he passed without
knowledge of its nature, voluntarily made
his appearance before the L. S. Commits
sioncr. lie was released that he might
secure bail for his appearance on Wednes-
day, when both will have hearing.
