An article appeared in Saturday Leader,
written by one our com petitors, concerning
one ofLillie's Locks, and that those using
them, may not unnecessarily loose confidence
in our work we have to say that Mr..
Lille patented in Is49 his combination
Bank Lock, without any key hole, and
into which therefore no pick or powder can
pOssibly be inserted. The only objection
our most bitter opponents could bring
against this old lock, was, that person
might in time, hit upon the combination
It has been in use upon ten thousand safes
(including merchant's) twelve years, longer
than any other lock has lived, without any
stain upon its reputation. Such a lock
was tried upon the Bank of Commerce,
during the past week nearly half day, by
an expert lock pick, who lost his
wager of S5O-and such lock he refers to
in his article above mentioned, on which he
worked steadily half day. During the
past Eve years, from time to time, Mr.. Lii
lie has invented and patented important inn

nations to more than ten millions, and chang

utter impossibility to open the lock, without
first knowing the numbers upon which it is
set. To snbstantiate this position, Mr.. Lii
lie warrants the lock, as now manufactured,
and such as he has sold in this city, to the
Bank of Commerce, City Bank Of Cleveland,
and Messrs. Chas A. Reed 4 Co., Bankers,
and will refund the purchase money,
if the Locks can be opened without
injury in burglars time, and when
he is allowed to lock it, he will stake
any amount of money, that it cannot be

Ma. EDITOR There has been 60 much

the amalganatiOn case, sO-called, thst I
desire to make the following b.ief statement
Of the facts in the case:
On the evening Of September gath last,
about o'clock, Constable Buskirk came IN
to my ofics and desired me not to leave for
awhile, g. a couple had been waiting for
some timein Squire Aliens Office to be mar

Squire Allen did not come in, he (Buskirkl

waited some time, I covered my desk, lock-

Of the stairs, met Mr.. R. A. Davidson and
Constable Buskirk accompanied BY the two

with Mr. Davidson and Mr.. Buskirk for a
half or tbres-quarters of an hour. I had
not the least suspicion of and certainly did
not knOtV Of either the parties possessing
the least amount of African blood. had
no acquaintance Whatever with the parties,
and never saw either of them to my know

I may remark in conclusion, that al
though have always frankly avewed nay
anti-slavery sentiments, Ihave been equally

to the mixture ofthe negro and white races.
have frequently said that I Would not of

such thing should occur, and if any aredis-

We concur fully in the cOrrectnes5 of the
above statement; and only say in addition
that the man who was married, had straight
hair, blue eyes, aquiline nose, and was Of
lighter complexion than many persons who
are generally acknowledged to be white
and that We did not at the time suspect hi
possessing any African blood.

but most Of them are anxious to march. We
are making the most of the time that re-

duty,
We have now two battalion drills per day,
one at half past ten, and one at about four
o'clock.

Judges asked the Clerk there had been any
return to the writ issued against General
Porter, the Provost Marshal. The Clerk
answered that there was none. District At
torney Darlington, en- behalf of Deputy Mar
shal Phillips, presented a paper, with an afi-
davit of Mr.. Phillips, stating that the writ
had not been served, because he had been
ordered by the President not to serve it and
because the privilege of the writ of habeas
corpls had been suspended for the present by
order of the President.
In regard to soldiers in the United States
army within the District of Columbia, Mr.
Darlington offered to submit an argument TO
the Court in behalf of Marshal PEillips. but
the Court announced that it did not propose
to take any steps against him, as the re-
turn prest nted grave question. The Court
desired to hold it under adVisement, and an
adjournment was made until Wednesday
