ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 25, III

Ed. VoTER:-In the IoWd Voter OF
Oct. 10th, / find II published card
signed by l.. Biddle, of Knoxville,
claiming to DO the original inventor OF
my attachment to printing presses.
This being untrue in every sense of
the word, it becomes my duty, owing
to his published card, to state the fol-
lowing facts: employed Mr.. Biddle
In the latter part Of 1870, to make pat
terms for casting my attachment, he
being mechanic, and he performed
the work as | gave him the ideas of
what was necessary to be done, for
each part, and for which l paid him
$3.50, far more than his work was
worth. had been at work on my
invention fora long time previous to
my employing BiddIe, and had made
q pattern, with the assistance of Mr..
Mcclellan, and before making Bid
dies acquaintance. Biddle has no
right whatever In my attachment; he
does not understand the first princi-
Piles of the printing business, and could
not possibly know what was needed to
produce the. desired results accom-
plished by my attachment.
! warn all persons from trusting said
J.. Biddle,0n my account.

FROM THE DEMOCRAT of this week
we gather data for the following:-A
son Of Mr.. Geo. Miley, few miles
west of Knoxville, had his foot cut
nearly of, last week, by the CHANGING
OF the axe with which he was chop
ping.-While Mr.. II. NJ. Hale and
his family were going to church at
Blain's Schoolhouse, in Union Tp..
on the night of the Odd, their wagon
was accidentally upset, all hands
thrown out, and one of Mr.. HIS little
girls had ono arm, and the other both
arms, dislocated.-While Henry
Burgett was walling well at Chicago,
In this County, few days since, a
large piece Of earth caved in, striking
him upon the arm, breaking the bone.
Jacob UtZler, aged Is years, was
dangerously wounded in the thigh
and groin by the accidental discharge
of shotgun which another young
man had laid into the wagon into
winch Utzler was gathering corn, OPP
posite Red Rock, last Thursday. The
butt and lock of the gun were wrapped
in an old coat, but an ear of corn hap
pened to hit the lock in such n way AS
to discharge the gun. There is a
probability that young Utzler will
recover.

THE yEW COINAGE SYSTEM IN JAPAN

iS nv this system the silver dollar is made the

legal tender only 10 the amount OF 10 times their value
Tbe silver dollar contains 4l6 Troy grains OF silver nine

however that the amount for which tue supsarI EIu

The Intention OF the Government that the oVerVaueu

that the gold coins OF Japan shall eorresp ,h
