The immunity from detection that

Confidence fatal confidence. He fell
in with a stranger who, with many

speeches, succeeded in making Mr.. r.

money. Here was a good opportunity
to dispose OF part of his pile. Mr.. X.

TIE Esd OF THE TRAGKDY.-We no.
tieed, in our issue of yesterday, that an
officer had been sent from this city TO
examine the body of a man found float
ing in the Ohio river short distance
above Baresville, Ohio, and supposed
to be that OF Godfrey Lukerd, the muir
derer of Mrs. Riddle.
This officer, with civilian we'll ac-
quainted with Lukerd's personal APP
Pearance, proceeded by boat to Bares-
vile, and from there TO the spot where
the body had been buried. Il was ex-
hnmedt and identified beyond the pos
sibiity of n doubt by both the officer
and civilian.
These gentlemen made affidavit be-
fore John Fisher, Justice of Peace, in
and for Monroe county, Ohio, that the
body was that of Godfrey Eukerd.
The Coroner's jury empanneIed by
John Muhleman, Coroner for Monroe
county, Ohio. found that the man
(Lukerd) discovered floating in the
river came TO his death by drowning.
There remains no doubt therefore
that Lukerd made way with himself.
So ends the tragedy.

MUSIcIPAL CoURr.-This institution
may be apply compared to the Ohio
river, full one day and almost empty
the next. Its rise and fall follow the
law OF the rythm OF motion. In con-
sequence of which we can treat our
readers only at stated intervals, ito those
little affairs, occurring with unfaiIing
frequency in civilized society, the true
nature of which "blind justice" alone
is popularity supposed to be able to see.
Yesterday morning the tide was low
and there was consequently but little
business doing; all the regular packets
having laid up-transient boats as well.
We werein despair. For the arrival OF a
steamer at the "municipal' wharf
is a perfect Godsend to us, and
none were in sight-stiIl worse, none
were expected But every cloud has a

ton Of fine cigar, made us our

HORRIBLE CoNDuCT.-SeveTal per
sons in Portland, Wisconsin, were
poisoned by eating muskrat. A boy
died. and two other children were not
expected to recoveHs-EIchdHge.
We clip this for the benefit of canni-
balls whom We saw up the creek the
last time we went fishing,-alsof for our
Lawmakers.
These heathens had captured in Ber-
rvs Hole three or four inodensiVe
mustrats, with which the Hole a bounds,
and were skinning and otherwise clean
ing them for the purpose of having a
roast
We have heard of ''roast beef and
two dollars day" roast, veal, roast
mutton, and roasted potatoes; but
never in all our experience had we
heard OF roast muskrat before. PoIt-
land, Wis, and BeFry's Hole, up
Wheeling creek, are the only places in
our beloved country where muskrats
are eaten. We will bet on it.
We approached the busy group as
closely as circumstances would permit,
and, having been reading Halls Jour
nal Of Rodlth a short time before, we
commented TO eXpostulate. We argued
that muskrat wasn't good-that it WIS
odorous, &c; but we might as well
have Whistled to the wind. In fact,
our representations ceased quite sud-
denly. We retreatd through the tunnel
without our new fishing rod, and now
live TO call this matter TO the attention
of our legislature.
Let 9, law be passed next session, and
roast muskrat viii disappear.

COUNTERFEIT CURKENoY.=The num-
Der of counterfeits afloat in the city in
bills and fractional notes is quite alarm
ing. Everybody remarks it. And
everybody Is on the qua rice against
counterfeit money. But somehow or
other everybody gets taken in and done
for As for ourselves, we don't handle
a great deal of money and do not know
good from bad. We are consequently
victims. We bleed at every pore.
Half our pile is composed OF bad quar-
tiers, which, we are certain, If our hon
esty did not forbid us to attempt to pass
them, would not buy even drinks.
Bad luck to the counterfeitE.
