use of by the assailant was that naturally
iroffensive and useful article, an umbrella,
When employed in ordinary service, an
umbrella is about as innocent an article as
can be conceived, and as cudgel it is by
no means formidable, and Mr.. VALLEY found
it was hardly the thing for his bellicose
purpose. Accordingly, he resorted to a
pistol, but was at once disarZned. The OBJ
.iect Of the attack betook himself to the Re-
corder, and the affidavit customary in such
cases having been made, warrant for the
arrest of Mr.. VALLEY was duly issued.

A FISAScIER.-Recently, the position OF
cashier in the Metropolitan Loan and Saw
ings Bank was made vacant by a resigna-
ton, and for time the directors were in a
quandary who to place in so responsible a
position. The name of NJ. NJ. Samuels, a
well known money broker Of st. Charles
street, was proposed, and at once accepted.
1t will not be denied that the new in
cumbent is a tnancicr of capacity, and it is
expected that the institution, located at the
corner of St. Charles and North streets, will
flourish with this gentleman as cashier.

deceased Intentionally upon a sudden
quarrel, your verdict Will be guilty of

your verdict will be not guilty.

firing to deliberate, to thoroughly ex-
anime the evidence in the case, give all

1t is not my purpose in this communi
cation to enlighen the readers of the
CHRONICLE, in regard to the working of
that great machine, if such it may be
called-by which the thoughts OF the
people are conveyed from one part OF
the land to another. Neither do take
pleasure i'll impugning the character of
any one, whom the Government has
honored with the dignity of ofPost-master.
No matter what a mans calling or pro-
fession, if it is Legitimate and honorable,
and he acts his part with honest, integ-
rity, and an evident knowledge of his
business, he will secure the applause and
commentator and criticising public.

whose actions become the subject of this
article, which if he may chance to read
let him take heed, thereby for the eyes
of the public are On him.
My greatest fault with him is, that he
suffers Tom, Dick and Harry, or who
ever may he sufficiently inquisitive, to
know that which it is his business to keep
secret. L a love-letter Tor an article for

discovers that the postmaster has let the
cat out. 1t is not uncommon to hear
persons say that their letters and papers
are sent to the next office, and their ,le-
layed until the returning mail. This
is another cause for gnashing of teeth.

THE financial editor of the Clnclnna-
ii Gazette declared a few months ago
that return to specie payments woHli
be an imitation of all debts thirty per
cent. and contraction of all other val
ues an equal amount; and, if possible,
would produce widespread ruin. One
half of the margin between gold. and
currency has disappeared and the pre-
dicted ruin and disaster has not been ex-
perienced. The editor still persists
however, that return to specie pay
ment sOiH produce the ruin. We have
gone on quietly, steadily, surely III the
destruction of the inflated prices OF cur
rency and commodities until the golc
dollar that was $3.50 is now only worth
SLY without producing the Gazette
predicted trouble, and we are inclined
to think that if the change of $l.63 on
the price of dollar in gold has been at
tanned without disaster it will hardly be
brought about by an additional change
of IL cents on the dollar. But the Ga
zette must stick to its theory.

How is that for honesty? The editor
ofthe Gazette knew that Coshocton was
a Democratic county; that Brown
was Democratic Treasury thief,
and thar Coshocton County has suffered
more from Democratic thieves than mas
nny county in the State except, perhaps
this county; and this county never lost
a dollar except tbre ugh Democratic
Treasurers. IF the Gazette had he'd
this case up as a warning to Democratic
thieves there would have been some
force in it, but he seeks to convey the
impression that it was Repuoiican
thief, in order to screen his own party
A party thatneedssueh shameless trek
