PASSING SPURIOUS COMA man of
genteel appearance, calling himselfC c. H.
Reilly, was arrested last night by officer
John Scott, 'on the charge of passing
certain pieces of brassy-looking coin on
unsuspecting darkies for gold, The
pieces were of different sizes, closely
resembled gold coin, and persons unable
to read, and unaccustomed to seeing the
genuine article, could be deceived with
little difficulty. Rely seems to have
done a lively business, and when ar
rested had in his possession quite a
handful of the stuff. He offered the
policeman twenty-five per cent. of the
proceeds of the stock on hand if he
would allow him to escape y but Scott
failed to see it in that light, and Reilly
was placed behind the bars.

EXPLOSION OF Coal on LAMr
About half past FIVE o'clock yesterday
evening a coal oil lamp in tenement of
what is known as the Stillman Block, on
Poplar street, exploded while sitting on

the time, thoughtlesslY threw a quantity
of bed clothing on the flames. OF course
it was speedily ignited, and disastrous
fire became imminent Fortunately,
officer George Miller saw the light from
the street, and hurrying in, seized a
bucket of water, with which he easily
extinguished the FIRE. Had he arrived

Letter frorn senator Hounrd.

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 25.-The Tribune
this morning published an interesting let
ter, understood to be from Senator Howard,
in reference to threats of the Washington
Union, that Senators who have declared
their convictions beforehand shall not sit
in Judgment upon President johnson. Mr..
Howard says it is generally understood
that the Union is under the patronage and
control Of Mr.. Johnson and his advisers,
and that in view of military preparations
now going on in Maryland and other boro
der States, such threats can hardly be re
garded as merely for Buncomb, but that
the original purpose of the President to
attempt violence upon Congress has bes
come deepened aud intensified under the
malign influence Of his private advisers.
Mr.. Howard continues, Congress will do
their duty firmly and regardless of these
revolutionary preparations Let him be
sure of that, and it will rest with the peo-
pie and army to protect them in so doing.
If Rebels and Rebel sympathizers have not
had enough of strife and blood, they can,
in my poor Judgment, become easily satia-
ted by stirring johnson to assault Congress
by military violence. And, indeed, am
not sure that, in the long run, such mad
plan would not lead to a final and con-
elusive suppression Of the rebellion, and of
rebelism, by the condign punishment of
their volunteers, and be decided benefit to
the government and the nation. There
must be a final decision at some time. Per-
haps it is the will Of Providence that
Johnson's madness shall hasten it.

Davidson county, nor the succeeding sec
ton is universal in its application 10 all
parts of the State and consequently both
are unconstitutional and void
Nor is this act of March 9th to be re-
garded as a constitutional amendment or
provision, under the pretended authority of
the eighth section of the schedule 1t
makes no pretension to such character on
its face but to be a mere amendment or
part of general law relating to other sub.
jects But view this question as we may,
the convention which propounded the
amendments and the people who adopted
them, could not have intended that the
Legislature should determine the qualifica-
ton of voters and the Limitation of the
elective franchise in any manner less
solemn and formal than that by which is
to be enacted law of the land
may say that the conclusion arrived at
by myself after a thorough investigation of
this subject, meets the concurrence of the
legal profession in general
