Young Counterfeiters in France.
now BOYS AND GIRLS COMMIT CRIMa.


Twenty eight prisoners, chiefly boys under
sixteen years of age, were arragned in Paris on
the 2Sth ultmo on ch arge of utterng base
com. The scene in court is thus described:-
This crowd of culprits was guarded by as
great a crowd OF gendarmes, and as they stood
thus all hustled together, pressing against each
other with Involuntary familiarity, the group
presented picture; and we ask ourselves:-If
such be the green bud of vice in the nineteenth
century, what must be the fruit when arrived at
the fulhess OF maturityp The whole scene re-
minded one rather OF a distribution OF prizes at
village school than the serious trial of set of
criminals accused of a crime classed among the
greatest in any country, and one which, until
lately, was punished with death, and even now
by the galleys for lie.n
The details Of the trial revealed some interest
ing but melancholy lacts. But one OF the gang
OF culprlts admitted the possession of any means
OF livelihood, and he was the chief. He sold re-
treshments at the Belleville Theatre and made
his place a rendezvous for all the thieves He
was in the habit of gong round with basket
containing oranges, barley sugar and GRO
quettes, according TO the custom of French
theatres-the members OF the gang calling him
from dl1erent parts OF the house under pretense
OF purchasing hls refreshments, and thus the
transactions Of the day we're summed up and
registered The trial of the band will remain
among the causes cetebreS on account oil the per.
feet confidence with which the whole drama
was enacted, and the ease with which depreda.
tions to the amount OF 40, 000f. had been carriod
on by an association consisting entirely of boys.
One or two were artists in their way. To the
moet skiltul were allotted the pieces OF the reign
of Charles x, to another those of LOUIS Philippe
and the common method OF ordering q coinage
OF one or the other, was to call tor a sOupe la
Charles DiT, or a bOuiaOR Louis Philippe. Many
were considered bedur esDrats, and although not
knowing how to read or write, their reputation
for quickness of wit was amply sustained at the
trial. One of them, prdng himself on his elo-
quence, entertained the auditors With an account
oftheir manner of hie, and by his dramatic ges
ture and deeptoned accents created laughter
Josephine" /" not yet fifteen years OF age, was em,
ployed to polish up the coin. She confessed to
participation in the offense rs tar as thus, but de-
clared that she had accepted the Office to OBTAIN
living, and to aYoId dong worse"

WOLCOTTVIIILE.

The silver wedding of MT. L. W. Coe seems to have been a splendid affair over three hundred guests were present The special train furnished by the President of the Naugatuck Railroad ran through the whole length of the road, bringing guests both from Winsted and Bridgeport. A supper room was extemporized for the oc- casion, and the large rooms of the enter tainer were filled to overfowing. MT. Bish- op was hardly correct in saying, in his let, ter rendering MT. Coe the use of special train, that the latter had ''taken the lead in builling up the beautiful village of Wolcottville ;" yet he has certainly taken the lead in restoring to the place it's former prosperity.

 In Justice to the Weantinaug nine it is proper to state that two thirds of the Col umbian nine were from New York and Newark, and that they are all first class players, so that the hines were very une- qually matched, and in addition to this the players of the Weantinaug club were con- siderably fatigued by the game in Danbu- ry with the Excelsiors, the proceeding day.

Bas~ Andrew Johnson, colored individ- ual, was last week committed to jail under the following circumstances
 He had induced various confding inhab- itants of this place and Morris, to subscribe towards defraying the expense of burying a negro child. The necessary funds were forth coming, but the deceased juvenile was not and consequently the funeral ceremo- ny turned out, to use the language of MT. A. Ward, anything but "a success" To supply the deficiency, enable the ceremony to go on, and the subscribers to get their moneys worth, a public spirited Morris subscriber proposed to substitute the car cass of the defaulting African if he could catch him, and forthwith commenced swinging around the circle" with great rapidity after MT. Johnson. His success seems to have been but partial, for although the colored person with the unlucky name was brought into town a few days after, it was not in the solemn procession we had been led to expect. His would-be chief mourner was, however, in attendance, and seemed somewhat more composed than inn mediately after his bereavement. 9 a

RowDYIsM. Anything more disreputable than the following scene, an account of which we take from Mondays Tribune, it is impossible to conceive.
 TRoY, Nov. 4. 1966-One of the most dsgraceful scenes that ever occurred at political meeting in this city took place at the Democratic mass meet ing held at Hands Hall last evening to hear Gov Seymour on the issues of ~the campaign. There are two factions of the Democratic party in Troy one headed by David l.. Seymour, ex M. C., and the other led by James McKeon, ex-Assemblyman. McKeon ran for Sheriff three years ago. and was defeated by Seymour Since then the war has been intensely bitter between them and last night it eliminated in a knock-down upon the stage of the hall, as the meeting was being organized. Both parties strove to obtain tho control of the organi zation, McKeon nominating Hannibal Green, a heavy iron-deaer as chairman, and Seymour nom mating Mir Harvey Smith, retired merchant. Mo Keon clapped his hat over Seymour's face when the latter drew his and struck the former over the arm. Other parties then interfered-al of them Democrats and office holders-and for some mo- ments scene of the widest excitement occurred Several persons knocked down. David L. Seymour was thrown from the platform among the audience and considerably injured. The MclSeon-
 ties, being largely in the majority soon cleared the stage of the rival factonists and organized the meeting with Mir Green in the chair. Gov. Sey- mour then came forward and made his speech He was terribly agitated when he began, and it was some minutes before he recovered his composure The speech was repetition of the one.delivered in New York
