AWFUL MURDER The last Browns
willie, Tenn, States, gives an account
Of the murder Of Mr.. Elias King, a
worthy farmer who lived about
twelve miles from that city. He was
lying down on lounge reading, aud
his wife sitting by him, when the
heartleess assassin shot him through
q window with an Enfield rifle, the
ball entering his heart, killing him
instantly. A negro named Edmond,
laborer on the place, Is supposed to
be the murderer, ~ the negro and
Mr.. Kings horse have been missing
since the night Of the murder.
The negro Edmond Is about 81
years ofage, weighs about 100 pounds,
and his feet are little deformed-he
Is rather black and slow Of speech.
Our exchanges should give an ac-
count Of this diabolical affair, with a
description of the william, to assist In
capturing and bringing him to the
end Of rope.

information that considerable amount
of counterfeit greenbacks, National Bank
notes and fractional currency were being
circulated in Northern Ohio and Eastern
Indiana, and that large gang of opera
tors were engaged in it. Two ofthe most
skillful detectives in the Secret Service
Department were detailed to assist Hast
ings in the matter During the past two
months they have been engaged in work
ing up the case, and have succeeded in
breaking up the gang. Arrests have been
made from time to time, until several of
the ringleaders, some of the most desper
ate characters in this part of the country,
have been arrested. James Monroe Bis

and George w. Shawen, Of Marion; Geo.
Fedick, of Decatur, Ind; Matthew A.

rested, and large amount of counterfeit
money obtained. Shawen "squealed" on

following reasons:
It will be recollected that short time
since the Supreme Court decided that the
State Board of Equalization was an lille
gslly organized body, and overruled their
declarations. The Grant County Com
missioners decided that this should ex-
tend back to cover the additional levy as
scssed by the Board in 1859, some ST.
900, and a writ was issued by the Court
restraining the Treasurer from paying
over this amount. The State Auditor, In
consequence, refused to make settlement
on these grounds, and viii commence suit
at once to bring the Treasurer to terms.
