In bygone years humane practitioners lave hesated to
administer them because the nendish ingenuity Of
wr.tches who make merchandise Of human nhrinites
had luted and deteriorated them that the remedy
was deemed as dangerous as the disease. This per.

IHE CoUNTEFEITnRs.-FATAL was up before
commissioner HoRLBEcK on Tuesday, for the
purpose OF procuring bail. His counsel called the
attention OF the Commissioner to the fact that
the only charge against FArAL1co was mado by
GHERKIN, in whose possession tho counterfeit
money was found
ADoLPH NIEaANN, who gave evidence on Monday
about one. .FATAIdco, and who did not ut that time
SEQ tho prisoner, on being confronted with him on
Tuesday said that the prisoner was not the man,
and that he had never seen the prisoner before
in his ife.
Under the circumstances, the question of bail
was postponed.
On yesterday further examination was had,
lowing depostion:
Frederick William Wagener sworn, and says:
keep grocery aud pr vision store at the
corner of East Bay aud Qrcen-strcets; some two
weeks since Lieut.. Hcu,iricks, in company with
Coates and Farrell, called at my store and said
that John Gcrken sent them, saying that he lad
paid mo somo money, aud that Gorken had also
said among that money was S18 50-1U0 in SO cents

PROVOST Court, July 25, 1S6G.-MraIae dictu !
a pleasant morning and only two prisoners in tho
dock !
The black countenance of Joseph Bennett, like
an evil and familiar spirit, haunts the Courtroom.
and to-day the apparition was again seen. This
time the ghost had been wandering ut tho dead
hour of midnight making free with PEOPLES
premises and conducting itself to the great terror
OF ooored female. The poiccman's club, like
magician's wand, suddenly arrested these mys-
terious proceedings, and the dark fiend yielding
to tho lncantations Of tho guardians of the night
wended it's way to the Temple of metropolitan
Justice. A fine of So, with an alternative of five
days hard labor, recalled Joseph Bennett unpleas-
antly to subunary affairs.

THE WEATHER.-The early portion of yesterday
being cloudy, the heat less intense than it has
been for some time, but by twelve o'clock the sun
came out as fiery as ever, and up to five O'Clock
1t was very oppressive. At that hour, however,
clouds again began to como up, followed by rain
with lightning and thunder, which gave us for the
balance OF the evening a most delightful atmos-
phere.

and many OF its incidents exciting and
startling, as well as mirth- provoking
Miss Western enacted the part of Miami,
the Indian Huntress, with that effective and
impassioned impersonation, which she
gives to every character she attempts to
portray.
In consequence Of the engagement OF the
Opera House for the entertainments by
Burgess & La Rue's Mnstrels on this and
tomorrow evenings, Miss Western will not
appear on the boards there until Saturday
evening, when she will give another Of her
grand impersonations in popular play

nenutifuI 'Tempernnce !

There was in session in this city on the
Goth and 2lst, State Temperance Conven-
ton. The surface sentiment of that Con-
veniion was, that total abstinence from all
intoxicating beverages is akin to, pure
Christianity itself. This being the alleged
case, there should not have been an exhibit
ton in Convention that put to shame and
crucified this idea. This was done by Mr..
BARRERE, one of the members ofthe Board of
Public Works, when the resolution was up
for adoption, declaring against giving sup
port TO any candidate for office who was not
apractical total abstinence man. Professed-
ly temperance man, he was Incorporate
in his remarks. He was biggotedly parti-
san. Never a vote would he give to a
Democrat, were he ever so true and tried a
tee-totaler. Always would he vote for a
Republican, no matter il he were addicted
to intemperance. And he was enthusi-
astically applauded for these declarations.
Do these men imagine they are going to
advance the cause of temperance through
any such intemperate partisanism 1t is
some satisfaction to know that bigots of
this description will not have voice In the
Judgment that shall be pronounced upon
the quick and the dead, when Time is de-
clared no more. loo. ... .,r.. ... .-r.

Very Good Advice.

Governor Cox honored the State Tenn
perance Convention with his presence on
the 2lst, and made to its members brief
speech. He therein expressed sympathy
for the temperance movement, and told his
hearers the solid truth, that before asking
for more stringent legislation having forit
object the enforcement of temperance,
they should educate public sentiment up to
enforce existing laws on thatsubject. u.
That's good advice. The query occurs in
this connection, itlaws repugnant to public
sentiment here in Ohio cannot be enforced
with reasonable success, how can Federal
legislation for the South be enforced, if it
shall be repugnant' to the general senti-
ment OF the people thereof? " .ts.a

Opera House..

Burgess & La Rue's Champion Troupe of
Minstrels, numbering twenty-four dis
tinguished artists, will give their inaugu-
raj performance this evening at the Opera
House. They crowded Mozart Hall, Gin
cinnati, for week, and the Enquirer of
that city thus refers to them: '
MOZART HALL.-The largest audience of
the season was present last night-par-
quette and dress circles were crowded, and
in the latter eligible standing room was in
demand. The well deserved popularity of
Burgess & La Rue's Minstrels accomplished
this result, and the excellence of the en-
tertainment will, doubtless, continue the
same brilliant audiences. AS a whole, the
troupe is the best that we have ever seen.
Vocally and instrumentally 1t is ihconpar-
ably superior, and in the variety perform
ance the company has never been ap-
preached. The solos by Sweet, Fredericks
and Church in the concerted portion of the
entertainment, were gems. The latter sang
a beautiful ballad by VIII Hays, the Refu-
gee, which Is destined to find its place upon
many piano, judging by the enthusiasm
that succeeded, The Qudrtette is the per-
lection of, harmony, delicious blending of
sympathetic voices that would constitute a
feature In the most refined operate organi-
cation. -
The comic department is represented by
Messrs. Burgess and Purdy, both acknowi-
edged faVorites, and possessing the rare
merit of originality. Theirjo are quaint, \
sparkling and new, while, better still, they
are not tinged with the least shade of vui-
garity. = gslaaf est'BC8 3BF
The clog dancers, Kanane and West, may
well be styled the champions of the dusky
Terpsichore. Their style is entirely dis
tinet from the majority Of professionals of
their persuasion,n and in art, grace and
skill they excel any that ever attempted
this popular style. 100

4 Total No. Delegates.
IL is respectfully suggested that, as fat
as itmay be practical and convenient, the
delegates be chosen on Saturday, the 29th
day of December. HI ve
We avail ourselves of this occasion to
urge upon the Democracy an immediate
organization, and especially township and
ward organization. Now is the time to
spread useful information among the peo-
pie; but this cannot be done without
a thorough and efficient organization.
That our principles will ultimately
triumph we do not doubt-for to do that
would be to doubt the possibility OF free
government--but we cannot achieve sue
cess, and avert despotism, without labor;
and we cannot begin our labors too soon or
prosecute them too earnestly and stead
fastly. r.r /. af.

The Obdurncy 81 the PreaIdenI.

aaC VANNhOG4Cy " uNC HrNAUCAus
Those who say that the result of the
elections has had some effect on almost
every one, but President JOHNSON, who is
pronounced "as obdurate as ever" pay
him very great compliment, although
they do not intend to. 1t is in effect say
Ing, that withdellberation, and with be-
lief in its righteousness, he adopted his
present policy. Having thus adopted it, it
would convict him OF possessing a mind of
lamentable vacillation in public man
we're he now to change it or to compromise
with the champions of a policy his judg-
ment hitherto classed as revolutionary.
On one occasion, in addressing his constit-
uents, BURKE, great English statesman,
told them that he could not adapt his views
to the continual shifting of the popular
breeze. He could alone give the sanction
OF his mind to such political views and
measures as would five years hence be re-
garded as just and:sound. If in making
up his policy, President JOHNSON acted in
accordance with this idea, of course he
could not recognize in the result of the re-
cent elections his duty to abandon that pol
icy. His obligations to the tOhole people are
to-day as sacred as they wefer before the
elections took place, and he would be in
excusably false to those obligations were
he to abandon ten States to the tender mer-
cies of the dominant Radicalism in the
other States of the Union. ''~.''
