sensation to-day in the narrative of Pied
montese named Tiaglese, of the discovery
by himself and others Of immense quanti-
ties of diamonds, nuggets of gold and a fab
ulous amount of other precious stones,

Der claimed the whole, and was murdered
by some Others of them. All the eXcavat-
ing machinery was destroyed, work stopped,
and the others went awayl'with large
amount of gold, and he had dimore valuable
gems. Offering one for sale at Suez, he was

he was again arrested at Marbles, pre-
viously handing, his narrative to Mr., Ent-
wistle, an American citizen there, and car

If they still continue to take the present

Conclusion of the New York Re
~, publican Platform. IA ~.

r. Resoleetb That we call upon the loyal
constituencies. OF, the several districts in
this State, ms selecting candidates for the
| Legislature and other offices, to nominate
none but men of known integrity of char
acter, as the only means of avoiding cor
ruption and securing an honest administra-
tion of public affairs.
Resoleed, That, as the, Union party has
steadily sustained the Government In its
contest with the rebellion, not only against
its open enemies In the field but against
those who gave it aid and organized SYM
pathy and encouragement in this and other
loyal States, so will it now maintain its au-
thority and second its efforts to restore all
the blessings OF union, freedom and peace
to all our common country, and we conf
IDENTIFY appeal to its past history, its present,
and the character of its candidates, for its
title to public confidence and support.
After reading the resolutions, and in
response to loud calls, Hon. Henry j. Ray
mond briefly addressed the convention,
congratulating the delegates Upon the
unanimity and harmony that has marked
all their proceedings and upon the excel
lence of the ticket they have put in nomi-
nation.
The resolutions were then adopted unan-
imously.

After our article,r headed g Passage of an

following communication in reference to
the same subject;
There passed through the city yesterday,
and encamped near Camp Chase, one OF the
finest and largest trains that ever left the
City OF Washington. Ithumbers two hun
dred and fifty wagons, two ambulances,
eight battery ,forgesy one thousand seven
hundred animals, two hundred white en-
plOyes, and one hundred and fifty negroes
the whole In command of Major Mande-
vile, M. 10. S. A, who is an able and ex-
perienced officer, and formerly Q. M. of the
First Division, 9th Army Corps. He is, as
sisted by the following gentlemen Of expe-
rience-Mr.- Wright, Chief Clerk; Mr..
Samuel Thompson, Superintendent, and
Messrs. Charles Knap and Matthew Jones,
Brigade Wagon Masters. 'r--l'Hn ''.T
The train left Washington City, d. c., on
the 2Sth of August, making distance of
1898 miles in 26 days without the loss of an
animal by exhaustion. No previous train
has passed through the country, with the
employees behaving SO orderly as those
connected with the onenow encamped near
Columbus. The discipline maintained likens
tito an organization OF the regular army.
Were it not tor the announcement Of its ar
rival in this city, a great many of the citi-
zens would be deprived of the pleasure OF
witnessing SO novela sight, so quietly and
orderly does 1t move along. .....

/ The Journal ON MHssRs. GAvER AND
GIBBoNs.-The Journal tries to 'crawfsh"
out of its contradictory position that the
resolution inviting General Grant to the
lefty was unanimously adopted, while
| Messrs, Gaver and Gibbons voted nay on its
adoption, by stating certain things which,
1t alleges, transpired before the resolution
was announced by the President of the
Council as unanimously adopted. In order
to make out Its case, it accuses President
Douty of sanctioning proceeding that
was out of order, and thus charges him
with a palpable violation of parliamentary
law and usage.a,If the President, who is
sworn to do bis duty as the presiding officer
of the .Councfb can afford TO lie under thfs
charge without repelling it, we are content.
But we do not believe there is any ground
for the imputation. ,9..r t1q1s z5asig
The Journals alleged facts, in reference
to Messrs!g Gaver and Gibbons, amount to-
this, and this only--that they did not rush
intoea vote for the adoption of the resolh-
tion without taking time for consideration.
We think every right-minded and thought
full citizen will commend them for this.
They saw that the adoption of the resolu-
tion would open the way for draft upon
an exhausted City Treasury, and for i'm
posing an additional burden upon corpo-
ration that can not afford to giyeits Street
Commissioner the means to hire Carts suffi-
cient to remove the heaps Of dirt and filth
piled up by the citizens, in accordance with
its own laws. If to takea few moments for
reflection in such a case as this, was 6 very
coppery,H as the Journal has it, the opbo-
site course would have been, in the judg-
ment of prudent and considerate men,
fool-hardy. Messrs. Gaver and Gibbons
acted upon the spirit of the motto-s First,
be sure you're right, then go aheadp--and,
by direction of the President, and with the
assent of.all the members Of the Council
present, their names stand recorded as hay
ing voted for the resolution on the first and
only vote taken on the question of Its

ed by coming under three special excep-
tions: Heis'agraduate of West Point, was
General in the rebel service and is worth

sion in the U. S. Army " years ago, and
was short time in the rebel service at

they have been occupying, and probably

The Counterfeit 500 No.es.

New YORK. Sept. %. The Tribune's
special says: A thorough anil most rigid
investigation Is being made by Secretary
McCulloch intoithe mystery Of the coun-
terfeit 500 compound interest notes. This
is undoubtedly the most dangerous counter
| felt which has as yetappeared, and may well
challenge the severest scrutiny of the bank
note companies and all who, have been em-
| ployed in any wise upon the Government
dies and plates. The face OF this note is a
most accurate imitation of the genuine,
while the back is either the genuine Gov
ernment plate tor an electrotype from it.
1t seems Settled that either the original
| plates, engraved by the American Bank
Note Company, have, been. allowed to get
into improper hands or the fac smile was
obtained by the electrotype process. On
the first hypothesis 1t is difficult to see why
| the genuine face was not obtained in the
same way, but if the plate from which it
was printed was obtained by, ,electrotyping,
the probable feasonfor the face not having
been electrotyped is, that the Eignette and
other portions of it are engraved upon sew
eral pieces, while the back is in one. In
connection with the electrotyping theory, it
is now remembered that experiments in the
duplication of plates by that method were
carried on in the Treasury building by per-
sons not regular employees of the Govern
ment, at intervals before Mr.. McCulloch
became Secretary, with view to the adop-
ton of the process, and that such multi
| plication of the plates was characterized at
the time as injudieious.1 1t is known that
| bill plates have been boxed at the Treasury
and sent to New York to outside parties for
backing, and in thismanner may have fall
EN- into improper hands; but it cannot be
denied that in the earlier stages of making
| these plates at the Treasury Department,
greater opportunities were permitted there
for their electrotyping than at any other
point1orby any Other parties.c The honor
and interest Of every employe of the Cur
rency Printing Bureau being so signaly in
volved, it is hoped that every thing which
can possibly throw light upon so important
a matter will receive the most thorough
shifting in the investigations now going on.

Governor Bramlette's Visit TO
WasllingtOn--An; i'm Ken

hSaOh--AhaiES III Aen-
lucky.
NEw YoRK, Sept. E22-The Herald's
special says: Governor Bramlette's visit
to Washington occasions many surmises
among those. who attach great significance
to unimportant events. Il Believing his State
to be misunderstood and misrepresenied it
is probably true that he is here partly to
contradict some of the unfounded rumors
In circulation, and to assure the eauthdrities
that no difficulty need be apprehended con-
cerning the negroes within its limits. He
thinks there are not five thousand voters in
Kentucky opposed to emancipation. The
apparent opposition he asserts to be Who'll
ly due to eXtraneous causes. Neither is
thereany yrespectable number OF individuals
In the State arrayed against the Presidents
plan of reconstruction. Mr.. Harney, of the
Louisville Democrat, is almost alone in his
opposition, but Kentuckians are divided as
to the methods of abolishing slavery
When. the present State Constitution. was
formed its trainers intended to perpetuate the
institution, and placed it out of the power
of any majority to legally abolish slavery
by amendingt the Constitution in less than
six years, and by then guaranteeing COM
pensation, TO the owners. Phe presentLeg-
islature will probably execute a flank
movement on the institution, declare it
worthless or an incumbrance, and pass the
| Constitutional amendment. The families
of negro soldiers have Been uniformly lib
Grated in obedience to law. The general
drift of Kentucky politics is finally in the
right direction, and the Indications are that
Governor Bramlette, General Rousseau,
Green Clay Smith, and other opponents,
will become the warmest political bedfel-
lows at no distant day.
