New RAILROAD PROJECT.-We learn from
the Toledo Blade that a contract was recent
ly closed with a party representing about
S12, 900, 900 for the completion of the Amboy
R. R. from Mackinac through Michigan to
connect with some road to Cincinnati. To-
ledo is in a pretty direct route, and the sub
ject is considered deserving the attention OF
her citizens. They need direct railroad
communication with Mackinac, and it
would be a great benefit to the city to have
the Amboy Road connect there with the
Dayton 4 Michigan.

Orrin Follett, ESQ., President, has been ap-
pointed Receiver of this road, and the fol-
lowing changes in the order and mode of
operating the road have been made, as we
learn by the s~andusky Register:
Mr.. Geo. Morton resumes his former posi-
ton of Engineer and Superintendent OF
Track. Mr.. JOB Paulucci is Track Master
of the Southern Division, and Mr.. H. Groat,
Track Master of Northern Division.
Mr.. Theodore Lyman continues to act as
Master Mechanic, and has charge of the
Motive Power of the road and shops.
The other officers are Assistant Superin-
tendent Joseph Lansdown; Train Dispatcher,
j. S. Doe; Treasurer, L. H. Latham; Gen
eral Ticket Agent j. NJ. Webster; Auditor
of Freight Accounts, L.. Il. Lewis.
The proceeding in court under which this
change is made, is an amicable foreclosure
under the first mortgage for the purpose of
perfecting a plan of capitulation agreed upon
by the Stock and Bondholders, under the
act of 1861. The process will be a short n
and the road will revert to its former condi-

PANORAMA OF THE OH REGIoNs.-Griswold
and Porter's Panorama of the Oil Regions
drew a very good house to Brainard's Hall
last evening. Notwithstanding it was a
nipping and an eager air outside, enough
gentlemen and ladies braved the early and
disagreeable rigors of the season, for the
sake of seeing the paintings and hearing
/" Girls" to make a more encouraging and
imposing house han that which welcomed
the Fat Contributor and artist, on the pre-
vious evening. There is but one expression
concerning the merit of the panorama. All
who have seen it testify to its artistic ex-
eellence, and those familiar with Petrolia,
bear witness to its correctness and truth.
A good and accurate idea of the oil regions
may be obtained by an inspection of these
shifting scenes, explained fully, as they are,
by Mr.. A. NJ. Griswold. The lecturer does
not, however, eonfne himself to a mere de-
seription and the giving of facts and sta
tistics. The show and narrative are en-
livened with characteristic sallies ofwit,
and strokes of humor, snatches of comic
songs, etc, are made.tributary to the enjoy
ment of the spectators.
The last exhibition of this work of art
will be given this evening. A matinee is
announced at two o'clock this afternoon, for
the benefit of ladies and children, or fami-
lies, more particularly, on which occasion
the admission price is but twenty-five cents.

S11 900 an Spurious Treasury Notes ana
Fractional Currency an the Hands o.
the Police- The Agent Arrested.
On Saturday last Capt. Steers and
Officer Anderson of the Thirteenth Pre-
cinct made one of the most extensive
seizures of counterfeit money that has
taken place in this city for the past lC
years.
A short time since Officer Anderson
was informed by some of the neighbors
that Francisco Bahagar, who for the past
two months has occupied an apartment in
the rear of No. Goerck- ST., was in the
habit of receiving great deal of com.
pany, and as he had no ostensible means
of support, they thought the matter re-
quired investigation.
The officer accordingly kept close
watch on the premises, and he discovred
that the suspected man was visited almost
daily by men habited in the garb of coun-
trymen, the most of whom bore away
with them small parcels. Other visitors,
rather better dressed, as invariable called
and left parcels.
These suspicious circumstances were
By the officer detailed to Capt Steers, and
on Saturday the latter determined to ar.
rest BahaSer and search his apartment.
The suspected man was arrested by the
Captain and Officer Andersen, and on the
way to the Station House attempted to
throw away bnnch of keys. which
were secured. The apartment of the
prisoner was found to contain trunk
stove, mattress, chair, and one or two
other articles. The trunk was opened,
and found to contain counterfeit Treas
ury notes of the denomination of fyes
aud twenties, and an imitation of the last
issues of 90 cent postal currency. The
entire amount reached the enormous sum
of Sl1l,000. 1t was neatly done up in
$1,000 packages. The engraving and
printing are of the very poorest description
and the paper is stiff and unlike that used
by the Treasury Department. The most
ordinary judge of money would detect its
spurious character at a glance 1t is be
lieved that it was intended for circulation
throughout the South and West, and
long the Canadian border.
The prisoners visitors were the buyers
and sellers of the Countericits, he being
probably only the agent, and his apart
ment the Depot fox their sale.
The officers have been iniefatigable in
their search for the acccmplices Of the
prisoner, but thus far without success
He stubbornly refuses to reveal anything.
Capt. Steers will take him before the
United States Commissioner this morn
ing for hcaring.-Tribune.

Death Of Lord palmersfnn.

The death of Lord Palmerston, which
is announced by the news from Europe
received yesterday, is an event which
will attract attention throughout the
world
Lord Palmerston, who had been i'll sew
eral days, died, on the 18th at 9:35 a. m.
at Brocket Hall, his seat in Hertford
shire. Lord Palmerston has been for
years the actual chief of the British Gov
ornment, possessing more influence in the
settlement Of the national policy than any
man in England; a more absolute ruler,
in fact, than the Queen. He has been
an astute, but not frank statesman, ma
king but few mistakes, and being more
successful generally, in infusiDg conf
dence in his measures, than any othc,
British politician who has been in power.

The Pope denounces Free Masons.

The Pope has again pronounced an
allocution which is making some stir in
Europe. This time he warns the faith
full against the Free Masons, reminding
them that several of his predecessors have
prescribed and reproved that sect, the
entrance into which they declared should
entail accommodation, which the Pope
alone could remove. The Pope denoun-
ces the Free Masons as the instigators
of revolutions, and calls on the secular
governments to suppress them. The
Steele OF Paris calculates that there are
in Europe more than 100000 Catholic
Free Masons who do not seem to heed
much the thunderbolts of the Vatican.
