A Recent Act of Congress being put in
Force.

EOTCcs
The Department of Justice is looking
after the officers of the United States
Courts, and seeing that they comply with
a recent act of Congress, which provides
that all moneys in the registry of any
court of the United States, or in the
hands of any officers, which were received
in any cause pending or adjudicated in such
court, must be deposited with sub-treas-
urer or designated depository in the
name and to the credit of such court, on
ly to be withdrawn by certified order
from the Judge thereof. The law also
provides that if any clerk or other officer
of court of the United States shall de-
post any money belonging to the regis

tain or convert any such money to his
own use, or to the use of any person, he
shall be deemed guilty of embezzlement,
and on conviction shall be punished by
a fine of not less than five hundred dol
lars, and not more than the amount en-
bezzled, or by imprisonment for term
not less than one year, nor more than ten
years, or both, at the discretion Of the
Court. A similar punishment awaits
anyone who shall knowingly receive from
clerk or any money belonging in the
registry of said Court, as deposit loan

of the annual meeting were read by DR..

The forenoon was occupied with dis

opening of the afternoon session paper
was read by DR.. Harvey Knight of Geor-

its chemical composition, and its use as a
remedial agent, in cases occurring in his
own practice. He spoke particularly of
the danger of its indiscriminate use by
persons who do not understand its COM
position. The discussion which followed
was interesting and instructive, showing

CARD.


Having become satisfied after thorough inve-t-
CATION that Elastic Sponge,a las now and lately man
uactured, if one of the best of all the substitutes
for curlcd hair, for many if not most uses in up
holstery, we have accepted the Agency of it, and
intend to make it heseatter n speciality in our bus
mess. The objections which have been made to
it and which IT is well known we ourselves have
thought we were well founded, we have ascertain
ed cannot be urged against the article as now per-
fected. The process of manufacture has been en-
tlrely remodelcd under the advice and superin-
tendence of one of the most eminent chemists of
New England. New chemical and mechanical
appliances have been introduced in cleansing crude
Sponge, and to charging it with glycerine with
such entire success, that Elastic Sponge may now
be said to be chemically pure. There is absolute
ly nothing in it but the clean fiber of Sponge and
chemically pure glycerne.
The objection to Elastic Sponge being thus re-
moved there remain its undisputcd merits which
certainly entities it to be considered one of the
most valuable as it is one of the most curious and
interefting of laie discoveries Chief among these
merits is.that it is proof against NOTES.-The great
scourgc of the business against all other in
sects. Then its elasticity is permanent, based AZ
it is upon the non-evaperable property of glycer-
inc and the indestrutructibily of sponge fiber. We
have always been satisfied upon these two points
which are the essential requisites in such mater
ials. The evidence is now equally clear that it is
wholesome and sweet 1t is certainly light and
soft, easy to manipulate and cheap enough for all
except the lowest class of goods, For the cush-
ioning of Churches, Theaters Public Halls, Rail
way Stations, Omnibusses, Carriages, Steam and
Horse Cars and the like it will probably be found
everything considered, the best article in USE
For all uses, and especially for Bedding, we are
now prepared to Recommend the public to give
it fair trial as we ourselves intend to do. We
are ready also to answer inquiries, make cstima-
ties and take orders for every description of work
in Sponge well as to supply the trade the arti-

The Brattleboro Bank Robbery.

The BrattleborO Bank Robbery.
The Brattleboro Record has the follow
ing in relation to the robbery;
On Wednesday noon, about one-half
past twelve o'clock, daring robbery
was perpetrated at the First National
Bank of this place. 1t seems that an in
dividual well dressed, and Of good APP
pearance, came in and requested draft
to be made out, which was done, and the
money paid for it. He then offered a
quantity of gold and silver for sale, which
being counted out did not tally with the
amount he claimed to have. After some
words respecting it, he concluded to take
it back to a woman he represented as
owning it, and depositing it in bag, he
departed. AT about 2 o'clock, on enter
ing the vault Of the Bank, it was discov-
cred that some $4,000 were missing
about $4,000 of which was in new bills,
and some $4,000 in mutilated currency,
which was to be sent to Washington for
redemption. Measures were taken to
discover the perpetrators Of the deed /;
and during the night quite number of
officers were out on the search, but up to
this time no clue has been obtained to the
whereabouts of the robber or robbers
In connection with the affair, it appears
that for several days past two persons
have been stopping at the Glen House,
West Brattleboro, having span of grey
horses, but no baggage. About half
past | o'clock of Wednesday forenoon,
they called for their team, paid their bill
and came to this village. The two men
have not been seen since, but an individ-
ual answering the description of the one
who made the transaction at the bank,
was seen opposite the residence of Ferdi-
nand Tyler, of this village, at about
fifteen minutes before one o'clock, with
the above mentioned grey horses, and
endeavoring to repair break in his wag-
on. His horses were very FESTIVE, and
came near getting away from him. AT
fifteen minutes past one o'clock the team
remained hitched in front Of Mr.. Tyler's,
but short time afterwards he was seen
riding through West Brattleboro, in the
direction of Marlboro. 1t is supposed
that one or both Of the men who brought
the team to the village, assisted in get
ting the money, it probably being done
while the Cashier was engaged in trans
acting business with the man at the coun-
ter. A large reward has been offered
for the capture Of the robbers.
We learn in addition to the above,
that the surplus of the First National
Bank Of Brattleboro, January !, was
$4,000, and its soundness is therefore
in no degree impaired by the robbery Of
Wednesday, the loss by which was SIS
600 in cash and bonds.

Ex-Congressman Y. y. Bowen,oi oouth
Carolina, who has been on trial at WASH
ington, d. c., for some days on indict-
ment of Bigamy, has been convicted. On
previous trial, he managed to escape
the meshes of the statute, by what APP
peared to be legal divorce previous to
his second marriage; but this time, all
subterfuges failed, and the verdict came
out, contrary to the general expectation
"guilty."
In process of the trial, an alleged copy
of decree of divorce, also in this instance
was presented in evidence that the re-
spondent was all right on the record; but
it so happened that doubt of the genuine.
ness of the document was raised, and that
upon investigation, it appeared that ne
such decree had ever been entered on the
record of the court, and no such docu
ment had been signed by the clerk, ant
that the whole thing was grossly fraudu
lent.
There were seven negroes on the jury
and On acquittal or disagreement was con
fdently expected on political grounds.
This conviction appears the more re
markable, not only from the fact Of the
iDfrequency of arrest for this crime, bu
from the high social and political position
