Young but Hardened Criminal.
most daring attempt at forgery on the Sixth
National Bank OF this city was made on Thurs
Iay, and would have resulted successfully bat
Tor the fact that the perpetrators we're too eager
to secure a large amount. Early on Thursday
forenoon lad about sixteen years old, and APP
parently clerk, presented himself at the office
OF the Sixth National Bank, corner OF Thirty
ith street and Broadway, and stated to the
cashier, Mr.. John b. Dobler, that he had been
sent for check-book by MIR. James A. Dorman.
Mr.. Dorman is wealthy distiller, doing bust
ness on the coruer of Thirty-eighth street and
Tenth avenue, and had been in the habit Of
keeping an extensive account with this bank;
therefore the cashier had no hesitancy in acced-
ing to the request the boy.
In about an hour and q half afterwards the
lad returned and presented to the cashier Mr..
Dobler, check signed flames A. Dorman," for
S2O,OOO, payable to bearer. The cashier eX-
aSnined the signature, and found it to be appa-
rently genuine. He then examined Mr. Dor
mans account, and found that Mr.. Dorman had
not so much money on deposit at that time. He
knew, moreover, that Mr.. Dorman had never
been in the habits of overdrawing his account.
Still he suspected no forgery, as the signature
seemed to be genuine and he doubtless would
have paid $4,000 or $40, 900, II the order had
called ior no more. He merely thought that
there must be some mistake, and on requesting
the lad to wait, sent for Detective Irvine of the
Twentieth precinct.
This officer was prompt in arriving, when he dis.
covered that the lad was old offender named

The Trichinae Scare.

A New York correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press, after noticing the
fact that the stories about Trichin9
have materially diminished the con-
sumption of pork, assert that they are
false, and that the hogs which have
come to market this year are of an
uncommonly fine quality, in conse-
quence of the abundant corn crop OF
the last season. He adds:
If sensible folks do not exercise more
common sense on this point, there is
more real danger that they will be de-
voured by the worms which follow
after death by starvation. Before we
give way entirely to this %groundlcss
fear about trichine, which are only to
be seen by the aid Of good microscope,
we might better glance at the hopping,
crawling, jumping, running, skipping
crocodiles, South American anacon-
das and four footed beasts which in
habit the cheese we lunch upon and,the
water We daily drink. These we may
observe, without the aid of q lens, a
hundred times larger in size and more
terrible in appearance than any cork
screw shaped vital thread that ever
fattened on luscious swine. The whole
scare is very absurd, and ought not to
be c~ountenanccd by decent people,

money; by drawing specific perform

consideration was Confederate treasury

He decided that as belligerent rights
had been awarded the late Confederate

if It was an illegalissue, the only con.

GEN. LEE has been called before the
Obstruction Destructive Committee
again, and questioned after this style:
OIL understand you to say that
you had no a~pprehensions of any com
bination among the leading secession
lists to renew the war or anything OF
the kind?
Al have no reason in the world
to think so.
Q.-Havc You ever heard that sub
ject talked over among politicians?
A.-No sir; | have not. l have not
heard that matter even suggested.
Q.-Let me put another. Suppose
the Government Of the United States
should be held by a President, who,
like Buchanan, rejected the right of CO.
ercion, so-callcd, and suppose a Con-
grcss should exist here entertaining the
same political opinions, thus present
ing to the rebel States the opportunity
to again secede from the Union, would
they not, in your opinion, avail them
selves Of that opportunity, or some of
them?
Al suppose it would depend upon
the circumstances existing at the time.
Q.-You say you do not ~recollcct
having sworn allegiance and fidelity to
the Confederate Government?
Al do not recollect; nor do ]
know that it was ever required. / was
regularly commissioned in the army of
the Confederate States, but | don't
really recollcct hat the oath was re-
quired. If it was, i have no doubt l
took it; or, if it had been required, ]
should have taken it.
And so, through columns of space,
the povcrty.strickcn cross-examination
drags drcarily on, turning now to the
negro, and 10Y to one or another class
of the people-all the time puerile, all
the time directed by a narrow and in
quisitorial spirit the drift of the whole
being to prove, if possible, that the
people of the South have not, through
the disasters and cruelties of a ferocious
war, learned to love and admire the
people of the North, as, in the opinion
of the Committee, they ought to be
loved and admired.-HuntspiM hide

A CORRESPONDENT of the Memph

A CORRESPONDENT of the Memphis
avalanche, writing from Artesia, Miss,
says that Gen. Stephen d. Lee, former
ly Of the Confederate Army, has leased
a large plantation, on which he employs
mos than fifty freedmen. Gen. Lee is
of the opinion that cotton growing for
the next four or five years will be most
lucrative. He does not speak favOra-
bly, of emigration to Mexico, remarking
that though from experience he knows
the Mexican soil to be most fertile, he
had learned sufficiently the character
of the Mexican people to convince him
that revolutions were as natural and in
cvitable in Mexico as eruptions in
Mount Etna or Vesuyius. He cncour-
ages all lovers Of peace to remain at
home, and by honestly adhering to tile
support of President Johnson, and by
strict conformity to all laws and proc
lamations, endeavor to regain the polit-
ical rights and privileges lost by the
rebellion, and restore the prosperity OF
the South as speedily as possible. Gen.
Lee has set q good example, and like
the Lees and Johnston's of Virginia, is
atfording an example of good sense
and personal industry which is worthy
OF universal imitation.

Nails in Fruit Trees.

A singular fact, and one worthy OF
being recorded, was mentioned to us
n few days since by Mr.. Alexander
Duke of Albemarle. He stated that
whilst on a visit to a neighbor, his at
tention was called to a large peach
orchard, every tree in which was total
Sly destroyed by the ravages Of the
worm, with the exception of three, and
these we're the most thrifty and flourish
ing peach trees he cver saw The only
cause of their superiority known to his
host was an experiment made in con-
sequence of observing that those parts
of worm eaten timber into which nails
had been driven, were generally sound.
When his trees were about n year old,
he had selected three Of them, and
driven a tenpenny nail through the
body, as neal the ground as possible.
Whilst the balance Of his orchard had
gradually failed, and finally yielded to
the avagc Of the worms, these three
trees, selected at random, treated pre-
cisclv in the same manner, with the
exception Of the mailing, had always
been vigorous and healthy, furnishing
him at that very period the greatest
profusion of the most luscious fruit. 1t
is supposed that the salt Of iron fur
nished by the nail is offensive to the
worm, whilst it is harmless, or perhaps
beneficial to the tree.
4 chemical writer on this subject
says: 1.-The oxydation or rusting OF
the iron by the sap evolves ammonia
which, rs the sap rises, will of course
impregnate every part Of the foliage
and prove too severe a dose for the
delicate palate ofintruding insects.
This writer recommends driving hal
a dozen nails into the trunk. Sevcra
experiments Of the kind have resulted

Tax on Printing Material to be
Reduced.
A WASHINGTON special SAYS:

The Ways and Means Committee
have decided to report in favor Of the
repeal of the revenue laws on printing
material, such as paper, ink and type,
together with the material which enter
into their composition. The associa-
ton of Western printers and publish
ers have been urging upon the Com
mittee the request that soda ash, wire
gauze, bleaching powder, telling cloth,
and materials used in the manufacture
of paper, shall lie put in the free list,
and that the present duty Of twenty per
cent. on unsized paper shall be reduced
to not exceeding six per cent. They
hold that cheaper paper will increase
the demand for those articles. The
Committee is disposed to favorably
consider this last suggestion, as it is
believed the revenue would not suffer
loss by its adoption.
