In the case of Frank Mooney VS..
the owners of the steamer Flirt, the
deposition Of Garrett Boley, the mate,
aud others we're taken yesterday
Boley states tbat Mooney refused to
pay out the line when ordered, and
picked up the lead line in his hand;
he did not fire the pistol, but it went
off without being cooked, while he
was holding it towards Mooney, at an
upward angle of four degrees; he
does not know where the ball went,
but he saw blood; he admitted the
beating, but did not strike Mooney
with the lead; he asked Mooney to
come aboard the boat when she was
ready to start, but be refused. An
assistant pilot testified that fifteen or
twenty minutes after the boat landed
Mooney went about five hundred
yards from the boat, took off all his
clothes, except his hat and boots, and
stood there till the boat left.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-The dis.
tillers in some whisky districts have
been making oyertures to the revenue
officers to the effect tIS9t they can
make more money by runejng their
distilleries according to law, provided
all distillers do the same, than by
making illicit whisky and incurring
risk of detection and consequent pen
alties. They propose to form associa-

detecting dishonest distillers.

THE AGUE.-The general impress
sion seems to be that as a remedy for
ague there is nothing like Quinine; !;
but those who desire to experiment
upon themselves can try the follow
ipg. which we find in an exchange:
"Take Of common sage enough to
make about half pint of tea, then
get about the same quantity of good
vinegar. Mix and take it all, if pos
sible. when you feel the chill coming
on. Instead Of chill, you will have
a good sweat, and in ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred you can say
good bye, ague.' Ut II. Erpress.
Armistead's Tonic Syrup is much
safer and surer remedy.

Another attempt has been made to cor.
ruptly influence the Legislature of this State.
Mr.. Sickles of this county stated to the house
of representatives on Saturday that he had
been approached by party interested in the
pending legislation concerning the Heaiey
slough canal, and inquired of him how much
it would cost to secure his support of the
measure. We are glad to record the fact
that our representative virtue was equal to
the occasion and that he not only refused
to sell himself but exposed the means used
to secure the measure The matter has
been referred to committee with directions
to investigate and report to the house. The
party supposed to be referred to by Mr..
Sickles denies that he meant anything i'm
proper in what lie said to Mr.. Sickles, and
pretends that the point of his inquiry was
satisfactory change in the bill to meets the
objections which Mr.. Sickles had urged to
it. 1t is not improbable that any one who
would attempt to corrupt legislature would,
if exposed use some ingenuity to escape the
odium of it.

President Grant to the ranks of female suf,
frsgists, In his inaugural address, be made
this pointed declaration "The question OF
suffrage is one which is likely to sgitate the
public so long as a portion of the citizens OF
the nation are excluded from it's privileges
in any State" OF course the President will
not allow that women are not citizens; if be
should he would at once be suspected OF
having read the Dred Scott decision, and
that is not at all probable.
