Found Guilty.

Robert Ackey, the counterfeiter, whose
trial at Indianapolis, Sheriff Glover and
others from this place and Mishawaka
attended last week, was found guilty on
Saturday. He will be sentenced this
week by Judge Gresham of the United
States Circuit Court.
Ackey, our readers will remember,
passed counterfeit money on several mer-
chants in Mishawaka. At his trial il
was developed that a few years ago he
was wealthy, enterprising farmer in
Michigan, just short distance over the
line from Indiana. His farm was very
large, we'll stocked, supplied with reap
ers, mowers, and every thing else need
full to make his calling one of pleasure
and profit. He was jealous church
member, a leading spirit in the Sunday
school and class room man always at
his post summer or winter, although he
lived seven miles distant. In the days of
his religious and secular prosperity, along
came a Strange woman" and fastened
upon him like leach In 1868 he fell
from grace. Shortly forty acres of the
farm was sold to satisfy her rapacity aud
crafty his own licentious habits. Soon
another forty went under the hammer,
and SO on, from bad to worse, until now
he stands adjudged a felon by twelve
competent jurymen.-.St. joe Register.

to whose staff he belonged never was
harsh, except through this fiend-like of
ficer, who used sword and boots freely if
he caught any one foraging without proper
officers. He had a custom of taking beef,
mutton, and pork away from the boys and
making them carry rail two hours, then
let them go. The boys got notion that
this meat was not thrown out to spoil,
but that it was eaten at headquarters OF
the division; in fact they had been seen
to use it, while hummer was carrying his
rail. While at Galesville, Alabama, after
the Atlanta cam paign, one of my men
came up to me laughing ready to split.

talking to about twenty boys. The story
as he told it, said Bummer had been out
and got a sheep, and Brick Hair took it
from him and ate it for dinner, so he con-
cluded to have grand revenge. Next
day he took his gun and started out and
killed fine, large bloodhound, dressed
the hind quarters nicely, and instead of
avoiding headquarters, he strung the
bloodhound's hams on his bayonet and
marched for camp by headquarters. He
was promptly arrested and duly sentenced
to Carry the rail for two hours, while the

could see it cut up and cooked, and in

he has reckless look that indicates his
fitness for any crime. He, as we'll as
Taylor, denies every statement made by
johnson in relation to the murder, and
goes so far as to say that he does not even
know johnson. a
We interviewed him and Taylor in the
Charlestown Jail last night. Neither of
them admitted any of the allegations of
johnson, but both steadfastly denied all
he had stated. Taylor is cunning old
rascal, and on being asked question
answered it with broad grin, character
istic of the negro race. Davis was appar-
emily greatly frightened, and when we
first entered the jail acted as though he
expected the mob he seemed so much to
dread. Taylor tried to cheer him, but
his words seemed to have no soothing eff
feet.
AS soon IS johnson reached Charles
town, he ,sas rapidly moved through the
dense crowd that thronged the streets to
the court house, and taken before the
grand jury. He seemed greatly frighten-
ed upon first entering the room, and
on being called upon to relate what he
knew of the murder, at first hesitated, and
said he did not know much. Afterward,
however, we were informed he made sub
stantially the same statement he had made
at Henryville, before Justice Ryan.

this clothing at Taylor's house verities the
statement of johnson, and fixes the guilt
of Taylor.
The gentlemen who worked up the case
were Stephen r. Cole, j. C. Stuart, con.

THE SMALL Pox-THE DISEASE ABA
TING Owing to the prompt measures
taken by the Board of Health the disease
has been kept confined to the localities
where it originated. Last Wednesday at

noon the record Of the Board shows nine
cases in all, Of which two are at the hos
pital and seven in private families. OF
these, six cases are recovering, three are
in progress There is another case re-

ITEM FOR SMoKERs.-A man with
bad appetite will, if he smokes, most as
suredly cat still less; q noteworthy tact
for smokers or others recovering from
wasting illness, or s'of their feed from
whatever cause. This effect of tobacco,
by the way, while an evil to the sick man
who cannot eat enough, becomes hoon
to the starved man who cannot get
enough to eat; an ample illustration OF
this was furnished among our soldiers in
the recent war. Again, I'm should not
smoke who has dirty tongue. bad
taste in his mouth. or weak>or disorder
ed digestion. In any such case he cannot
relish his tobacco. 1t should be golden
rule with smokers that the pipe or cigar
which is not smoked with relish had bet
ter not be smoked at all. Indigestion il
every shape is aggravated by smoking, but
most especially that form Of it commonly
known as atomic and accompanied With
flatulence. Diarrhea, as rule, Is mads
worse by smoking

VIOLENT EXERCISE INJURIoUs.-Vio-
lent exercise is seldom useful. 1t was no.
ticed by the early Greeks that no one who
in early youth won the prize at the Olym-
pic games ever distinguished himself at
terwarsl. The same principle holds good
in regard to everlasting the mental pow
ers in early life. An overworked brain Is
the source of sorrows in later years. Inc
old system Of cramming which usea 70 pc
in vogues:n 1irst-class schools, was often
iniurioas The true policy is to Insist
upon bealthf1l physical Development, and
to avoid all evils of excess. Base ballists
and school teachers viii make note Of
these facts.

thirteen hundred young men and lace them
up, and hang ten to twenty pounds of
clothes to their waist, perch them upon

ITARY OCCUPATION OF CHICAGO.
STATE OF ILLINOIS, EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
SPRINGFIELD, October 20, 1871
To Hon. E. B. Mason, Mayor of Chicago:
SIR-The General Assembly has now
by ample appropriations, provided for the
support of police force in Chicago that
will be adequate to the protection of per.
son and property in the city, and | trust
no time will be lost in making all neediul
preparations for retiring the military
force now on duty under the orders of
Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan.
"It excited the greatest surprise, and
has occasioned me the profoundest morti
fication, that you failed to inform me. as
you could easily have done by telegraph,
or through my confidential Secretary,
who reached Chicago on the 9th of Octo.
Der, of the necessity, in your Judgment,
for the employment of a military force for
the protection of the city; and it has
panied me quite as deeply that you
should have thought it proper, without
consultation with me, by telegraph or
otherwise, to have practically abdicated
your functions as Mayor.
"Hapily there is no necessity, either
real or imaginary, for the longer continu-
ance of this anomalous state of things.
| The United States troops are now in
charge, in violation of law Every act
of the officers and soldiers of the United
States Army that operates to restrain or
control the people is illegal; and their
presence in the city, except for the pur-
poses of the United States, ought to be
no longer continued.
ut is due to you that should confess
that the trying circumstances that sur
rounded you on the occasion of the late
disaster, it was natural that you should
incline to accept aid from any quarter, tc
enable you to afford protection to persons
and property in your city; but l regret
that it did not occur to you that your OWE
powers, under the laws, were adequate tc
meet the emergencies, and you are enti
tied, upon notice, to the support of thc
whole power of the State
From information that | have no
been afforded an opportunity to acquire
officially, have learned that Lieutenan
General Sheridan has rendered valuabl
services, for which he deserves the thank
of the people of Illinois; but it woul,
have been more satisfactory to them if he
as citizen, had given to you the assis
tance of his eminent abilities to organic
the people to act in conjunction with tn
civil officers for their own protection
That course would have been far prefera
BILE to that of concentrating part of TIL
army of the United States in Chicago
and the resumption by him of the sui
stantiai military control of the city.
hope you will at once inform Lieut.. Gel
Sheridan of your readiness to assume IL
complete government of the city.
Il have the honor to be, very
respectfully, your obedient servant,
John NJ. PALMER"

MAYOR MAsoN's REPLY.

In his reply to the above letter, Mayor
Mason says:
'IIad your Excellency, wien in Chica-
go on the 18th and 18th of this month,
informed me or Lieut. Gen. Sheridan of
your disapprobatIon of the course that l
had thought proper to pursue, having
on the 10th Instant solicited his aid in
preserving the peace and order of the
city, and protecting the lives and property
of its inhabitants, satisfactory reasons
could have been given your Excellency
for so doing, many of which it would
now be unwise to make public In the
performance of my official duties, | be-
lieved that an emergency required me to
take the steps that did. / do not be-
lieye when the lives and property of the
people, and the peace and good order of a
large city are in danger, that it is the
time to stop and consider any questions
of policy" but that if the United States
by the strong arm of its military can give
the instantly required protection to life
property and order, it is the duty of those
in power to avail them selves of it.
