SUSPENSION DASH CHURN.-Wc had
thought "tho end was not yet" of inn
provements In churns until we wit
messed tho operation ofthe above ma
chine. Mr.. Cram is exhibiting this
wonderful piece OF mechanism ut the
Lancaster House. The following is
from the pen of Waldo Brown, editor
Of the Prairie du Chen Union, upon
the merits of this machine:-
THE New CHURN.-The proprietor
of this, J. w. Cram, at the MOndell
House on Saturday morning May 9th
performed the wonderful feat of
churning six quarts of cream in fifty
seconds. The operation was timed by
Mr.. Burrows and Mr.. Carr, and wit
messed bv the writer, Horace Beach
and number of other citizens. The
product of that churning was six lbs
of hard, yellow butter of the finest fla
vor. Can any .churn in the world beat
this?
Mr. Schuman churuod II pounds OF
butter in two minutes, and brought
butter from q pail Of new milk in four
minutes. These churns are having a
great sale, and are deservedly popu-
lar
Mr.. Cram states that he has sold
the right Of manufacture and sale O
this churn for all the counties of the
state expecting Grant, Richland and
Iowa.

BE ON THE acknowledgements COUNTER
FELT. I'VE would inform merchants and others
who are so fortunate as to be able to handle
money these hard times, that dangerous coun-
terfeit $50 bill has made its appearance, which
is well gotten up and calculated to deceive the
best judges. We are not afraid being taken
in as there is no danger of any one handing
us $50 or any other kind of bill. For the
benefit of those who may be compelled to un-
dergo that ''infiction we give description of
the bill, which is as follows 1t is of series
No. 2, and is one fourth of an inch wider than
the genuine. The buttons On the vest in the
lines on them h ali run one new way, while in the
counterfeit the buttons are obscured, and on
the second button from the top the engraved
lines cross each other. The vignette is coarse
and the face has bad countenance. When you
turn the bill over, on the left hand corner the
circle containing the figures so lap, obscuring
the so that it reads $50. In the genuine the
SOS are all separate and distinct.

Mexico.

From all quarters, says the Norfolk Naginian,
we receive information that this wretched coun-
try is cutting it's own throat as fast as it can.
The 'liberators' are horde Of bandits who
murder all who are possessed ofproperty of any
kind, which is enough to draw upon them the
vengeance of the patriots" To judge Of the
extent of these slaughters, eighteen hundred
men have been shot at Queretaro since the
capitulation Of that city. These poor unfortu-
mates were either foreigners or natives who
belonged to the party of Maximilian-the only
portion of the people that seemed to have any
regard for law and order and the protection of
property. rs
We fear that in short time all the foreigners
will be murdered, if they are not SO happy as
to make their escape The bloodhound, Eseo-
bedo, has threatened to destroy them all, and
he will do it if he can for they have wealth,
and that is what he is after. 1t is said that he
has already amassed vast sums by pillage, which
he will secure in some safe place, so that if in
future he shall have to de-camp, he may have
wherewithal to live in splendor No doubt he
would be received gladly by certain men in this
country for we see that Juarez has been com
plimented in the Congress of the United States
as the man that knows what to do with crowned
heads" Of course, Escobedo would be incud-
ed in the welcome. for his was the hand that
put Macmillan to death.

Mr.. Butler rose to privileged question, and
made allegations regarding the Union prisoners.
A colloquy ensued, in which Baldwin asked Ell
bridge whether he expected the House to take
Col Oulds statements against the testimony
and statements of Union officers. MIR. Eldridge
said he believed Gen. Butler himself would not
deny that Col. Ould was an honorable and con-
| scientieus man. Sneering laughter on the Re-
publican side .59 60
Mr. Butler remarked that before the war he
had thought Col. Ould highly conscientious
and honorable man, but when man committed
| treason, he was ready, like woman fallen from
virtue, for any crime, and from that hour no
one knew where to find him.
Mr.. Eldridge reminded Butler that in making
that statement he had forgotten the eminent
men who had gone into rebellion-the Hancocks
and Adamses and Washington. Kisses l.

The following was introduced and passed, I'M

THAT the doctrine avowed by the President,
that the abrogation of the rebel States binds
the nation to pay their debts incurred prior to
the rebellion, is at war with the principles Of
international law, and stabs at the national cred
it, is abhorrent to every sentiment of loyalty
and pleasing only to traitors and their allies and
sympathizers, by whose agency alone the gov
eminent of said States were overthrown.'
The Senate bill comforting on negroes the
right to hold office was amended to include the
right to serve on juries, and referred to the Ju-
dietary Committee.

proclamation directing all proper officers to
prevent the invasion of Mexico was referred to

SALE OF A

VALU ABLE MERCHANT MILL AND
FIFTY ACRES OF LAND.
In obedience to decree of the Circuit Court O
Augusta county, rendered on the 18th day 0
june 1867, in the case of NuckolPs as. Dr. Talia
ferro Reynolds administrator and heirs, the un
dersigned, who have been appointed Commits
siOners to make sale of the real estate of which
T. Rennolds died seized, will offer for sae on the
premis es, on the
18th of july nert at II o clock,
THE LARGE MERCHANT MILL,
and about Fifty Acres of Land adjacent thereto
known as Trinity Point" which belonged to the
late DR.. T. Rennolds.
This property is situate on Middle River in
Augusta county, about seven or eight miles West
of Staunton. The Mill is large and commodious,
with two pairs of burrs, and one set of choppers.
The dam is a permanent one, built in the best
manner of very large stone. The water power
is ample for extensive machinery. The Mill is
located in fine Wheat and Corn region, and is
in good condition.
There is a comfortable Millers House on the
premises, and all necessary out-buildings. The
land is strong limestone, and quite productive.
This property is very desirable, and, with good
management, would yield large per cent. on its
cost. The grinding of the abundant growing
crops of Wheat and Corn of the Immediate neigh
borhood, would of itself, be source of large
profit to the purchaser.
The terms of sale prescribed by the decree are:
Costs of sale and suit in hand and the residue in
three equal annual payments, with interest from
date. But leave is given to the Commissioners,
with the assent of the heirs, to modify the terms
of sale. -

FRESH REVOLUTION IN MEXICo.-No soon
er has Juarez regained his capital than he finds
that he has to fight counter revolution which
does not look as if it could be easily put down.
Lozado, Montenegro and Olfara, three partisan
leaders gilmore or less ability, have placed them
selves at the head of some twelve thousand men
in the north and issued pronunciamento de-
claring themselves in favor of separate and
independent republic. Marquee is in the noun
tains trying to join them, and as he has good
deal of stolen specie with him, he may succeed
and be enabled to give them substantial aid.
Thus we see that the execution of Macmillan,
which was to give strength and unity to the
Republic, is already dividing and weakening it.
His blood has sownIthe soil with dragons teeth,
and a plentiful harvest ofmisery may be expect
ed to result from it,
