The Maiden Bank Robbery and
Murder.

Arrest and Confession ofthe M,Udtvr.
BosToN, Feb. s,--Tho Maiden Bank
robber and murderer has at last been ar
rested in the person of Edward W. Green,
Postmaster of Maiden.
Green has confessed the crime. and most
of the money has been recovered.
Green is twent-seven years old, and has
wife and one child, aud heretofore has
borne good character.
After the search of Green's person he
was conducted into an adjoining room,
=. where he was informed that he had been
followed and watched for some time
Thereupon, without any unusual emotion,
he confessed his guilt He stated that on
the day Of The murder he visited the bank
twice; the first time ho found there con-
ductor, who left pair of skates the next
time was at halfpast eleven. Immediate.
/ ly on entering he went into the directors
room, and seeing no one drew his pistol, a
six barreed Smith &Wessin revolver, pla-
cling the muzzle within foot young Cor
verses head, and fired, the ball taking
effect under or back Of his ear. He in.
stantly discharged a second barrel, the ball
taking effect in Converses temple, while
his victim lay on the floor.
. Alter the consummation Of the deed he
seized the bills in the drawer, about five
thousand dollars, aud went to his own own
Office. He informed the persons present
that portion Of the money was concealed
in piece of newspaper iu an old boot in
the post Office. Six hundred and fifteen dol
lars were found as he had directed. He
| further stated that the balance was secret
cd uoder the flooring in the attic Of the
Volunteer Engine house, and on making
search three thousand four hundred and
fifty-four dollars in Maiden Bank bills
were found, making in all four thousand
and sixty mine dollars. This, with several
sums paid by him, accounts for the whole
amount stolen from the bank
He also stated that the pistol was in q
drawer at his boarding house and on going
there it was found.
Green was brought to this city and
committed to the Tombs. The feelings o!
his wife on hearing of his arrest can better
be imagined than described,

Tmportant Local Deolsion.

A case was tried in the District Court
Of Philadelphia last week, which is Of
considerable interest to purchase of prop.
erty, inasmuch as it involves the question,
who is to pay the stamp cost attending the
transfer. A party had purchased prop.
erty for certain SUN Of money. The
deed to be made out to the purchaser,
OF course requires an internal revenue
stamp, amounting in the present case 10
$3.50. The purchaser paid the same, but
afterwards brought suit against the party
selling to recover it back, taking the
ground that the seller of the property was
bound 10 furnish full deed of the title,
and the afiixing of the stamp was necess-
ary to make the title full. Judge Shars-
wood, in delivering the opinion of the
Court, took the ground that the custom
everywhere is, for the purchaser of prop.
erty to pay the expenses of the transfer,
aud in this case, the stamp duty was but
an item Of such expense, and according y
gave judgment for the plaintiff, The de-
cision may be considered as settling the
much agitated and important question, SO
constantly coming up in almost all bust
ness relations as to whether the seller or
the purchaser is to pay the stamp duty in
transfer Of property. The decision will
we presume, ho,d good also in personal as
well as real property, and in all kinds Of
personal property.

sss- The Tee John gives publicity to
the silly story, that JAMES P. BARR, Sur
veyor General Of Pennsylvania, and Edi-
tor of the Pittsburg Post has come 10 the
conclusion, that the only way to establish
permanent peace, in this country, is to
abolish SLAVERY, 1t is a wholesale Sian.
der upon Gen. BARR. Hessian Bergner,
a full blooded brother of Pee John, started
the lie,a Gen. Barr, in late number of
the Post, gave it such contradiction as
should satisfy all decent liars, John and
Bergner excepted.
Gen. JAMES p. BARR, with thousands ol
other sensible Democrats, regards Slavery
lesser evil and curse upon the morals Of
the country, than political Abolitionism.

Senator Davis Speech.

Hon. GARRETT DAVIS, of Kentucky,
recently delivered a Speech in the United
States Senate, on Senator Wilson's reso-
luton, proposing his expulsion from that
body, on the charge of treason and dis
loyslty,in which he triumphatly vindicatod
his own fidelity to the Union, and as clearly
established the undoubted treason Of poor
old Wilson. Senator Davis almost fayed
the Massachusetts abolition Senator, and
sent him naked and despised into the
wOrld-evidently having got "more than
he bargained for" The abolition traitors
had the power but dared not exercise the
privilege OF expelling Senator Davis.

The INSTRUMENT Among a series
Of resolutions before the Calforna Legis-

&c, which passed the Senate with but five
dissenting votes, and the Assembly with
only two objeciing members,
So, then, to "Father Abraham" cold
Abe" "His Excellency," His High
Mightiness," the Grail Splitter" and
his almost countless other titles, is 10 be

Of no instrument to which he bears the

"harp of thousand strings upon which
all Abolitiondom and Niggerdom plays at
random.

Speech of Hon. G. L. Lambertor

We invite public attention to the speech
of Hon. @. L. Lamberton, of Clarion, de
hvered in the Senate January 81, on the
question of organization 1t covers the
whole ground-reviews the action Of the
Democratic Senators and their opponents
in a mastery manner-aud clearly shows
that the "loyal" Senators have acted very
dsoyally and Illegally, in open defiance
and violation Of the Constitution and the
laws. The speech is published on our first
page, and we have no doubt will be read
with interest

McCIellan's Report will have to exercise
their patience and wait until the demand
shall be fully supplied by private enter

too limited to furnish one-sixth of the cop

people of that State can at any time call a
State Convention, nominate State officer
and put the machinary ofa State Govern.
mcnt in motion" He told them that he
had authorized this to be done in Louis
ana, and that the people or one-tenth OF
them in Arkansas, could do the same
thing.
This is governing majorities with high
hand. But where did Mr.. Lincoln get
the power for authorizing onc-tenth of the
people Of a state to govern nine-tonlhs of
them? From the Arsenals Is this man
the servant or alaSter of the people He
has sworn to preserve, protect, and de-
lend the Constitution. But the doctrine
that one-tenth may govern nine-tenths,
pretty efectually "squelches' that instrn-
ment, which has been regarded as of grea,
value and authority by all the former
Presidents.

They are quartered on the grounds south
