head uncovered standing beside that spring

The farm consists of seventy-6ve acres,
half covered with grand old forest trees, and

desired three things,a cascade, spring and
some forest trees.

neat speech and several other gentle N en-
from Southern States spoke in succession.
The best of feeling prevailed, illustrating
Mr.. Greeley's declaration that this vas a

of an Illicit 'potteen" apparatus in Irishtown yes
terday morning. Assessor LEIGH having heard that
o still was operating in a stated locality near the
Navy Yard, despatched two Of his officers on re-
connoissance. The result was that the latter,
guided by their olfactory organs, soon smelled
"masn,n and made up their minds that whskey
was made In the vicinity. The officers through the
chink In the wall saw the still. in full operation.
They lett to secure assistance and deputy COL
lectOr empowered to seize, but when the party re-
turned the still had been carted away.
The revenue officers left in disgust and the own
ers OF the still, thinking themselves secure re-
placed the still ater the departure OF the ofcers.
But Captain LEIGH came o flank movement on the
violators OF the law. At three O'Clock yesterday
made another raid on the place above mentioned,
and this time succeeded In capturing fine copper
still, OF $50 gallons, and q number OF implements,
which were stored In the Marshals Office. The
above facts were reported to Supervisor butcher.
