for a State that has so rapidly won its
way to the rank of =" fourth State of
the Union" The county of San "a
mon, needing large building for its
county officers, courts, &C., offers to
buy the State House at fair valua-
ton, and then to present the State
with the Mather property, of six acres,
and valued at 100000. as free. gift,
on which to build a State
House worthy of the State. The
Legislature should think serious
ly of this princely offer, for if it is
not accepted shortly, the county will
be compelled to build and then,
when the State is compelled to build
new State House, this one will be a
dead elephant on their hands.
Springfield now boasts a splendid
Opera House, at which the stars, Mrs.
Farren and Mr.. Sheridan, supported
by good stock company, have for
the last two weeks relieved goodly
number of their spare currency.

SPRINGFIELD, Jan. 10, 1867.
There are many points of attraction
to the stranger visiting Springfield,
which to see and properly examine re-
quires stay of some days. SCOT.
The most interesting spot near this
city, is Oak Ridge Cemetery. Horse
railway affords a pleasant ride of
about two miles to this romantic spot,
a place which nature seems to have
taken special pains to make even
grand. At the end of your ride, you
are set down from the car, and shown
by the gentlemanly conductor, path
winding down moderately steep hill.
When at the bottom, you are surprised
to find yourself in vast amphithe-
atre of natures own handiwork.
Four peaks, representing the four car
dinal points of the compass, here con-
verge, forming at their feet most
beautiful dell Crossing rustic
bridge over small rivulet, we arrive
at the large gates of Oak Ridge Gene
terry, the city of the Springfield dead.
Entering, you see on the slopes, a
marble momento here and there, and
all around, evidence of the care taken
ofthe grounds, shrubbery, evergreens,
and tufted grass plots show that
the overseer is one who knows
his business A short walk along
the ravine, and short turn reveals to
you the tomb of Lincoln Plain, un-
assuming, as was he who peacefully
sleeps within, stands the marble front,
the tomb being an excavation in the
side of the hill. We stood, uncovered,
for few moments before the closed
door, then turned away. After a short
| ramble around, we came to the house
of overseer OF the grounds. a neat
building situated on one of the hills.
Entering, large Register was pre-
scented us, in which we inscribed our
name, as thousands had done before
us, and, after spending few moments
reading the various remarks made hv
visitors, returned to the brow of the
first hill, and boarding the car. re-
turned to the city.
We have also visited the celebrated
Mather property, at the west end of
the city, where we saw the tomb that
was first built for the reception of the
remains of the lamented Lincoln, and
which the city intended buying, and
presenting to the State, and on which
the monument was to be erected, but
which was objected to by Mrs. Lin
coin.
Next, we visited the old law Office
on the west side of the square, which
was so long occupied by Mr.. Lincoln,
and his estimable partner, Mr.. Hern-
den. Introduced to Mr.. Hernden by
our young friend Charlie Rearden, we
. saw the room, the desks, aud the

the top of the hill the way grew more steep
and difficult and his companions became

who has just been convicted in LilclIleld,
Conn, OF the murder Of his wife, hy poison,
has run race of crime during The last few
years which few men, in long lic, equal.
He first became conspicuous in the western
part OF New York in the fall oil 1864, as the
Rev. George W. Long. lie presented forged
credentials, purnorling TO be from Methodist
Conferences in the South and West and
obtained the ministry Of the church ut leu
ieryllle, Allegheny county. lie proved SO
acceptable TO the brethren, that, after two
weeks acquaintance, he married in one OF
the ncighbonng towns, and took bis wife
home with him. lie then commenced bor.
rowing money 'tD meet his increased OK
penscs, and before long had run up debt
of seven hundred dollars Thinking that
he had reached the end of his rope, lie bor-
rowed money to pny lis travelling expenses
10 Dunkirk, Ohio where he pretended that
he had real estate TO sell. His return was
anxiously expected by his bereayed flock, but
time passed, and instead Of the long-expect
gone 10 New York TO conclude the sale Of
his Texan property. He told his vile TO be
conlented and good and to pray for him.
Exit Rev. Mr. Long--enler at Utica the Rev.
William H. Green, preacher, political
speaker and temperance orator Temper
ancc lectures around the country were the
most expodienL for raising tho wind, but this
wasn't as profitable as the clerical fraud, for
the man he employed 10 personato the hObi-
tual sot had II moment Of sObriely, and re-
fused to continue The partnership unless he
were paid. On the Goth of last December
"Grecn" married Il Mrs. Scarlcs, in Gull
ford, Chenango County, New York, and in
March moved TO West Cornwall, Conneeli-
cut, where he made his debut us refugee
from Texas, and delivered loyal speeches,
being engaged as stump orator by The Re
publican Convention for Lllchlicld County.
On May 9th Mrs. Green died, having been
taken with ConyulsiQns. The physician
thought her death unusual, but did not then
attribute il 10 It's true cause. On the fourth
day alter her death Mrs. Green was buried

of his wife, he married an Irish chamber
maid employed at hotel. But he was
hurrying matters too fast. Ills conduct ex-
cited suspicion. The body OF his vile was
disintclTcd, the stomach and liver examined,
and the Revcrenl's" race was run. ~
slrychnia was found, and "Grocn" was ar
rested and imprisoned amid popular eXecra-
tions. In the Lilchield jail he made two
attempts to destroy himself lie dashed his
head against a walland choked himself with
handkerchief. Meanwhile lie ayerred his
innocence. Last week he was tried al
