A MISTAKE AND DIsCovERY.-A curious
mistake occurred on Monday in the family of
one of the Shop Row Merchants which re-
suited in remarkable discovery. A Ger
man woman named Mary Argendolf, wife of
Joseph Argendolf who lives in Florence,
went to the house of one of our merchants
and represented that her family were in a
starving condition. She was provided with
various articles and then LETT for home. Al
ter she had been gone few hours the lady of
the house missed her silver spoons, and as no
one else had called that morning, as a matter
of course it was supposed the beggar had
stolen them. She informed her husband of
the loss, when both of them, together with
sheriff Ansel Wright, who was provided with
search-warrant, went to look after the miss
ing property. In due time they arrived at
Mrs. Argendol1's domicile and preferred the
charge OF stealing against her. She denied it
and the search was commenced, but no spoons
were discovered. Finally Mr.. Wright pulled
OFT his coat and went into the ash-hole,
where he found a bundle of goods which
proved to be large number of sheets, ta-
BILE cloths, and towels. One corner of
the sheets, where they had evidently
been marked, had been cut off. The
sheriff accused her Of stealing them, but she
uoHlVu IT, Ilndlly one OF tnem was found
with the name of Dr. Munde on it. The doc
tor was called in, and the whole lot was iden-
titled as being articles that had been stolen
from him. This fact being established, of
course she had "gone in for the spoons" But
as no spoons were to be found about the house,
she must have them about her clothing. The
sheriff, Mr.. and Mrs. Merchant, and the doc
tor, commenced the search, Mrs. Argendolf
meanwhile showing fight. A package of some
kind was found sewed into her clothing, and
as it was hard and heavy, Of course here were
the spoons. 1t was cut out and unroed but
instead Of the spoons appeared 1920 in gold
and Sl9l in bank bills. As gold as gold now
a-days, the whole party were more than sur
prised, and visions of the 30 per cent. premi-
um doomed up before their astonished eyes
Further search proved fruitess, the party re-
turned home, and, what is the best part of the
whole affair, the missing spoons were found
at home, the servant girl by accident having
put them away in an unusual place. Our cit
liens will do well to remember that all beg
gar women are not so poor as they sometimes
appear.

The PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the New York Post
relates the following incident respecting the
presidents MESSAGE
"The president is hurrying day by day in
writing his message. No one sees him af-
ter noon. OF one fact the public may be as
sured-the president in his forthcoming mes
sage stands firmly by his proclamation of
emancipation. A distinguished politician en-
deavored in vain to see him two consecutive
days, and finally employed friend to secure
an interview. The president replied to that
friend: Il am too busy for the interview till
after congress meets. Besides l know Just
what he wants of me- (He here referred to
the specific object, which was really to get Mr..
Lincoln to recede from the proclamation. }
The president continues Il shall not do any
thing of the kind, and why should he or l
waste time or words over the subjectY This
little incident, which occurred within a week,
illustrates the feelings of the president upon
this question, and it is pleasant to hear that
there are many prominent southern gentle
men who stand firmly by him in it."

The WHITE HOUSE IN THE DAYS OF THE
ADAMsEs.- Sixty-two years ago, in Novem-
Der, 1900 president Adams and his family
came here from Philadelphia, and occupied
the White House, which had not then re-
ceiyed its name, the light gray free-stone of
which it is built not having been painted I'M
til after the interior had been burned by the
British When Mrs. Adams moved in, the
house was not finished, and in her letters she
gave amusing descriptions Of the discomforts
to which she was subjected The east room
was used by her laundry maids to hang their
clothes up to dry on lines stretched across it.
Inc main staircase was not erected, and dur
ing the residence Of the Adamses there, until
they vacated the house for president ,Jeffer-
son, they only used two rooms on the lower

dispatches OF the gravest Importance. and

French legation to the secretary of state An
informal meeting of the cabinet was held to-
day, and an adjournment had to this evening
when 1t reassembled at s. o'clock-Gen. Hal
Ieck being present, on special invitation of the
president. 1t is believed that decisions of
more ultimate Importance than any vet made
IN the course of the war, have been arrived at.
and VIII be announced before the end of the
week. The air is pregnant with rumors. of
military and cabinet changes. Military
changes are positive, and it is believed that
certain cabinet ministers regard these changes
as condemnation, giving them no alternative
but to resign.
In consequence of Gen. Mitchelps death.
Gen. Hunter will return to the department of
the south, the moment he is relieved from
duty on the military commission. Lieut.. Ed
ward w. Smith, fifteenth United States In
tantry, has been commissioned as his assistant
acknowledgement, with the rank of major.
We have to-day heard the opinions of three
MAJOR generals, and these opinions are the
reflex OF all military opinions here, to the eff
feet that the view of the rebel programme en-
tertaned by Maj. Gen. Dix, is the correct
one, and that the rebels are actively retiring,
with view of concentrating at Petersburg,
where Gen. LongStreet, with his vanguard, is
already In command, for the purpose of max
ing an attackon Suffolk and Yorktown, cap
turing the supplies and vast stores of heavy
artillery left behind in the latter place on the
abandonment ofthe peninsula; and then max
ing an attack in force upon fortress Monroe.

OLD MASSACHUSETTS, glorious sister and
neighbor, never falters nor fails. True as
steel to her principles, she stands fast in every
hour Of trial. By her vote of Tuesday, she
shows that not only is she as firm as ever in
her patriotism, but that she will do nothing
that can be construed into the slightest lenien-
cy towards rebellion, or the least hesitation in
carrying on the war with all her might She
has reelected her efficient state officers, and
has returned nine republicans to congress /;
and the other representative, Mr.. Sleeper, is
an unfiinching supporter of the war, and class
es himself with the conservative republic
cans" The legislature is overwhelmingly re-
publican, and in favor of the most vigorous
conduct Of the war, and of the warmest sup
port Of the administration. Massachusetts,
has sent forth, and is still sending forth, regi-
ment after regiment Of her sons to the field,
and she takes care to sustain at home the
principles which they are vindicating in the
post Of Danger 'oridenee Journal.

D1DN'T HE HAVE GOOD TINE OF IT ?-The
president sat at the telegraph in the war office
nearly the whole Of Tuesday night, receiving
election news = PToUidence Post.
The opposition in Massachusetts, knowing
how essential it was to seem to support the
president, had rough likenesses Of him print
ed on their ballots. The opposition in New
York, though they did not affect such degree
Of insincere friendship, still protested to be
faithful to the administration. The profess
sions Of the democracy there succeeded bet
ter than the poor device Of their friends here.
If the president sat up that night to receive
the news, he probably had the wit to fathom
the untriendly motives of both, and was as
much rejoiced over the signal defeat of the
latter as he must have been cast down by the
unexpected success of the other one.
