Confidence Nan done for at Troy.

Yesterday noon, says the Troy, n. Y,
Press of tie 18th, countryman coming
! down Fulton street, with valise swing
ing in each hand was discovered 10
close conversation with spruce looking
young fellow, who was evidently a cou-
iidence mau plying his vocation. He
accompanied the countryman to the
Museum building and there, by means
OF false "check," borrowed S3G-abcut
all the money greeny had. He started
to 90 up stairs, ostensibly to pas bill
which he owed and promised to return
Immediately, telling his friend to wait at
the foot OF the stairs. The confidence
man evidently intended to play the old
game OF going through the upper hall
and out Of the building by the Fulton
street entrance, leaving the ereeny to
wait for his money on River street. But,
in this instance tue victim was entirely
too sharp, and the moment the operator
disappeared up the stairs a suspicion OF
trickery spread over the greeny's mind,
and with a lusty war-whoop he started
afer the borrower. He followed him up
stairs. through the hallway and down to
Fulton street, with his two vaises swing.
ing convulsively from side to side, aud,
finally, just at the Fulton street door, he
seized the swindler by the coat collar
with grip ike that of wise. The
confidence man struggled vainly to free
himself, and fnally seizing the country
mans hand in his teeth, bit it dreadful
ly. A crowd had by this time congrega-
ted, and seeing the condition of affairs,
a gentleman rushed up aud made the
swiudler disgorge the $50. The coun-
tryman, as soon as his money was return
ed, released the swindler, who fed with
all possible speed down the street. while
"country," still tightly grasping his two
valises started off on frightful pace up
the middle of Fulton street, striking "a
bee line for the depot.

From ihs Jefferson Times and Republican,

Marshall 10 listen TO the, other. Here, as
elsewhere In this Congressional District,
his reception Mas not in the nature Of a
cnntsss, but an ovalioh. The Cotirt room
WIS dehsely crowded. Not only the Bench
es, chairs, but tables were filled with ca
ger listeners, but nearly every foot ofstand-
ing space was occupied; and although he
spoke for over two hours, every word that
fell frou, him WIS distinctly and welcome
~ helrd. And which. he had finished,
Frustrated by his prolonged effort, hun.
drels clustered around him to grasp his
hand, and to express their gra tiicaiion al
the enunciation Of sentiments that find an
echo in every honest, patriotic heart.
II is not our purpose to endeayer to pre-
