Old Accounts of Gen. washington.

The Treasury Department officials, in
making arrangements for the better preser-
Walton of the valuable papers, have lately
removed from vault, in which they have
laid for more than half century, the ae-
counts of General George Washington,
while he was COMMUNICATIVE Chief of the
American army during the Revolutionary
War. The accounts are stated in General
Washington's own handwriting, and are
written in clear and bold characters, and
are arranged with systematic accuracy.
The title page of these accounts bears the
following inscriptions: Account of G.
Washington bwith the United States, COM
menclng June, 1775, and ending June
1893, comprehending a space of eight
years. Entries are made of every item of his
household expenses, and for all moneys
used in the transportation of troops, and,
in fact, every expense incidental to the
Revolutionary war. Reference to history
will show that General Washington, al
though offered acompetency while serving
as Commander-in-chief, repeatedly de-
clined to accept any, as these acc3ants
show. General Washingtonis determine
ton not to cover up and take advantage of
the oversight of other Government officers
is well illustrated by the following entry
and the marginal note in explanation of
the same. 1t appears as follows: " By
cash EI93 16s.n Note-"This sum stands
in my account as credit to the public. but
can find no charge against me in any of
the public offices. Where the mistake lies
know not, but wish it could be ascertain
ed, as have no desire to injure or be in
jured.n 19 1Hs 2hI
Washington also submitted table, Civ
ing the amount of money received at diff
ferent times, giving its nominal value and
value by depreciation, from which it APP
pears that in October, 1777, one thousand
dollars was worth nine hundred and eleven
dollars in January, 177S, two thousand
dollars was worth thirteen hundred and
seventy dollars. The market value of
money continued to depreciate, so that in
March, 1899, two thousand was quoted at
two hundred, and five hundred dollars at
fifty. The final note at the end of his
statement is as follows: II received
moneys on private account in 1777, and
since which, except such sums that / had
occasion now and then to apply to private
uses, were all expended in the public ser
vice, and, through hurry i suppose, and the
perplexity of business-for [ know not
how else to account for the Deficiency
have omitted to charge, whilst every debit
against me is here credited. July /, 1863"

How TO GET RID OF STUMPs. The fol-
lowing is recommended by one who has
tried it, as the 'speediest, safest and surest
way to get rid of stumps of any and all
kinds:p eb ra .-al .au E
If you have many acres of clear stumps
get one barrel of black machine oil; then
take an inch and a quarter auger, and bore
four holes in the largest stumps, letting
the auger stand toward you at an angle of
forty-fiye degrees. Bore eightinches deep.
Then fill the hole three-fourths full Of oil,
and plug up tight. Pour, also, one-third
of pint on top, in the centre of foot cir
Gle, and let it spread we'll. When done
preparing, or say in five days, kindle your
fires on top of the stumps.

DETROIT, January 30.-The nOtOri-
Gus fOrger and bank sWindler, named
Charles d. VanderpOol, alias Charles
BrOOkway, alias Charles, Seymour,
alias Charles VIM. @. Waterman, alias
John Pike, was last week arrested in
this city, and this morning he was
started on his way to New York, where
he Is wanted for various crimes. This
man is a partner of Lewis M. Van
Eaton, alias Livingston, whose ar
rest at New Orleans was announced
by telegraph last night, and he and
his fellow criminal for several years
have been engaged in systematic
sWindling operations. There is rea-
son to believe that they during their
whole operations defrauded over
fifty banks in different parts
OF the country, out of sums
from $500 to $500. Their game has
been to purchase United States certif-
Gates, alter the numbers and amounts,
and collect the money accordingly,
The prisoner is known here as VIM,
@. Waleman, and was arrested for
rObbing the Bank of North America
in New York city Of $11 200. He had
about two or three thousand on de-
posit in this city at the First and
Second National Banks, and several
hundred dollars in gold at Windsor,
all of which was seized by the police.
He also had several thousand dollars
on his person.

A HEROIC WOMAN.


From the n. Y. Herald
MIR. Iimerman, Of Greene county,
was recently the owner Of a mastif,
which he had raised and which was
about two years old, and no doubt the
largest dog in the county. On Friday
afternoon Mrs. Timerman and a lady
neighbOr named Mrs. Eliza HUFF, re-
turning home from a visit to Catskill,
found the dog occupying the gate and
would not let them pass. Mrs. Tim
erman ordered him away, but the
mastif would not obey until they
both had thrown several stones at
him, when he took refuge under the
kitchen. A short time afterWard, f,
Mrs. Huff, while assisting Mrs. Tim
erman in carrying some things from
the house TO the kitchen, saw the dog,
with stealthy steps and glaring eyes,
advancing slowly toward her. She,
seeing she could not stop the dog by
word or gesture, at once prepared to
defend herself, as flight was impOssi-
BILE. As soon as the dog was near he
rose on his hind feet and attempted to
seize Mrs. Huff by the throat.
Then ensued a combat between the
woman and dog OF about ten minutes
and which for its herceness
has a parallel in such en-
counters. Mrs. HUI first threw out
her left arm, which the dog bit fear
fully near the wrist, and with her
right hand caught the infuriated
Drlte by the throat, and as soon as her
ieIJ hand was released from the grip
UI the dog aha uefVnT his rrsador ia W
win A. Knowing from every cir
Dumslanee that this combat would be
q lengthy one as soon as the first eX-
eltement had subsidized Mrs. Huff or
dered the iamily TO close every door
but one, toward which she gradually
Int slowly drew the dog. Before
reaching the steps in front Of the open
door, the dog had for a short time
