good sized dog entered the church,
walked up the broad aisle with
much canine dignity, and into the
pulpit, where he jumped into one
of the spacious, well-cushioned

himself. He behaved with the
greatest decorum until the organ
commenced to send forth its sol

with such vigor that it was neces-
sary to eXcommunicate him.

Universal Suffrage.

~ 49, - - 49, - 20
The Boston Post thus speaks of
that form of Radical extravaganza
which would open the ballot-box
to every class:
Universal suffrage, of course,
wipes out all poll taxes, tor the
absurdity of limiting this "greot
right of freedman by imposing
upon him tax of a paltry two
dollars seems too plain for argu-
ment; thus, three or four hundred
thousand dollars more will be add
ed to the burdens of taxpayers,
but what are taxes compared to
the progress of great moral ldeasY
Again, "Indians not taxed" now
cannot vote, but if universal suf-
frage should become the rule, why
should Indians not taxed" be ex-
cluded? Is not the Indian man
and brother? Is he not SO warm
in his regard for our race that in
the West he never lets an oppor-
tunity pass to secure a lock Of our
hair as memento to be hung in his
wigwam? But among no class of
the Republic will this doctrine be
SO popular as among those large
planters at the South who control
several hundred citizens of African
descent. The spectacle of pro.
cession of two hundred colored cit
liens headed by their former mas
ter, butnow their employer, march
ing to the polls and depositing THEN
two hundred and one ballots fol-
the same member of Congress, will
be as interesting as were similar
professions under the old rotten
borough system of England.

Improbable, yet True.

In the reign of Charles the Sec
ond, a French refugee, of the name
Of Du Moulin, was tried for coin
ing, and never perhaps was evil
dence from circumstances more
conclusive of a mans guilt. 1t
was proved beyond all doubt that
he had been often detected in ut
tering false gold; and that he had
even made a practice of returning
counterfeit coins to persons from
whom he had received money, pre-
tending that they were among
the pieces which had been paid
him. When the officers of justice
went to arrest him and search his
premises, they found a great num-
Der of counterfeit coins in a draw
err by themselves; others packed
along with good money in differ
ent parcels; some aqua-regia,
several files, pair of moulds, and
many other implements for coin
ing.
Du Moulin solemnly denied the
charge. The bad money, he said,
(which was found in a heap, he
had thrown together, because he
could not trace the person from
whom he had received it; the 9TH
er parcels of money he had kept
separate, in order that he might
know to whom to apply, should
any of it prove bad; as to the I'M
plements of coming, he knew
nothing of them, and could not
possibly account for their being
found where they were"
A likely story truly! So thought
the Jury, and so whispered every
person who heard it. Du Moulin
was found guilty, and received
sentence of death.
A few days after Du Moulin was
sentenced to beexecuted, aperson Of
the name of Williams. seal Ell.
graver, met with his death by &C.
cident; his wife tainted from the
fright, and sensible she could not
live, she sent for the wife of Du
Moulin, and revealed to her that
Williams, her husband, had been
one of four, whom she named
who had for many years lived by
countefeiting gold coin; that one
of these persons had hired him
self as servant to Du Moulin, and
being provided by the gang with
false keys, had disposed of a very
considerable sum of bad money
by opening his masters escritoire
and leaving the pieces there instead
of an equal number of good ones
which he took out.
The wife of Williams appeared
in great agony of mind while she
gave the account, and as soon as
twas finished, fell into commissions
and expired.
The parties che had named
were. On the information of Mad
anne Du Moulin, instantly appre.
hended, and after a short time one
of them turned kings evidence.
The who had been servant tc
Du Moulin persisted in asserting
his innocence, until some corrobo.
rating circumstances were pro.
duced, so unexpected and decisive,
that he burst into tears, and &C.
knowledged his guilt.
On being asked how the instru-
ments for coming came into his
masters escritoire. he replied
"that when the officers came to
apprehend his master, he was ter
rified lest they should be found in
his (the servant's) possession, and
fastened to his box in which they
were deposited, opened the escri-
toire with his false key, and had
just time to shut it before the Of
ticers entered the apartment"
Du Moulin was of course par
doned, and the servant and his as
sociates most deservedly suffered
