One Frederick Douglass, who took hon.

ley and then abused him; who owes a
life of devotion to Charles Sumner for
what the latter has done and suffered
for him, his kinsfolk and race, but who
has served Sumner as he did Mr.. Gree
ley, is now very much distressed in mind
because President Grant refused to lis
ten to honest Simon Cameron, the pure
Hartranft, and sundry other politicians
of the same 'hefty'' moral status, in the
matter of the Philadelphia postmaster
ship. Fred. is anxious to know if the
refusal to oblige Cameron, Hartranft &
Co. is what Pennsylvania voted for? just
now it is of small moment what Penn
sylvania voted for. She voted and thai
ended her duty. Now she will submit
to whatever may come of her vote. FREQ

GONG FOfSaA THOUSAND DOLLARs.-Ihe
large number Of counterfeit nickels which
have been donated to the cash boxes Of
street cars induced the several corporation
managers to promulgate an advertisement
offering a reward Of $1,000 for the arrest and
conviction Of any person passing the spuri-
GUS coin. Interested and disinterested per
sons perused the advertisement, but the
more they read.it the less chance they saw
of securing the desirable $1,000. 4 few days
after the notice appeared in the newspapers
we were accidentally informed Of a conyer-
sation between two men, one somewhat adj
vanced in years and the other on the sunny
side Of life. The young mans attire was
poor, and his whole appearance indicated
poverty, yet it was plain that he had seen
better times. The elder was hard fea-
tured, cool looking nan-0ne of the strata
gems and spoiIs kind of men. The young
man was anxious to secure mOney-how
was not a matter of conscience. He was
anxious to return to his friends and home in
Georgia. His companion had a glass of
beer before him, and urged the other to
drink. He read the street car advertise
mcnt to the Georgian, and asked him what
he thought Of that. is there not some
money in it for both Of u.s." The
young man looked up listlessly, but
suddenly frightened and uttered a single
word-counterfeit. He was not right, for
she elders composition would not permit
him to run serious risk, he thinking too.
much Of his own comfort and reputation.
asking the youth il he was really in earnest
and willing to risk his liberty for $500 put
another phase on the matter. An explana-
Sion was asked for, when the tempter laid
out his plan 1t was for the young man to
ride in street cars and pay counterfeit nick
eels until he was detected in the act, tle two
20 invariably ride together and when test
came the elder to become informer, push
she case to q speedy trial and conviction,
and then claim the reward Of $1,000. The
young man was to have half that sum, and
the other man to, as soon as possible, pro
9eed to gain the Georgian's release on
6onds, when he could jump the bail and
never be heard of again.
The propositions were made, with as
enuch deIiberation as if the subject had
been on an extra dinner. The young mans
Sace alternately indicated anger and pain,
but remembering his extreme poverty, he
gave the temptation some consideration, !
and finally said to his acquaintance that
she subject. being a very serious one, re- |
olpired time for thought While thinking !
Syer the case he concluded that the wisest |
course for him to pursue would be to confer
wfth merchant Of this city with whom he
Gyas slightly acquainted. That course
probably saved him from a felon's doom.
The merchant sent for the writer Of this,
and detailed the matter, when it was partly |
agreed that the crime should be pursued to
a certain point, and let the authorities into
the Secret. Better counsel prevailed, and |
money was loaned to the young man to
reach his home, and that is the last we
8ver heard of the temptation to obtain a
mean reward at the expense Of honor and
liberty.

The election in Pennsylvania continues to

information from that quarter is eagerly
sought for. A letter from Colonel Alex

fullest confidence in the success Of Bucka-

that Buckalew would get $4,000 majority

he saw John ,Morrissey offer in Philadelphia.

in the Buckalew election by q considerable
majority. The Washington Star of this

that Buekalew will be elected, but claims
that this will not decide the presidential

SAN FRANcIsCo, September 30.-This com
munity was thrown into state Of indigna-
ton that it is impossible to describe, by the
jury in the case Of Mrs. Laura ID. Fair, JnIs
morning, bringing in verdict Of not
guilty
The circumstances Of this case are we'll
remembered. Mrs. Fair, who it is alleged,
was the mistress of Hon, A. ?. CnttenGen,
met him in the presence of his own wife, on
steamer near this city, in November, 1870,
and deliberately shot him dead She was
arrested and in the summer of 1871 was
tried, convicted and sentenced to be hanged.
new trial was asked for and granted, and
now she is acquitted and discharged from
custody 1t was plainly a case Of deiber
ate, premedItated murder, and the fact that
she killed her victim is undoubted and IN
questioned.
The feeling very naturally is that the
jury was bribed, and that justice has been
outraged. The plea in her behalf was that
Of insanity, but nobody who ever saw or
conyersed with her believes her insane. She
is a cunning, but very malicious woman,
and now goes out to entrap some other man
in her meshes. AS soon as the verdict of
the Jury was announced this morning the
officers released her. Not since the days OF
the vigilance committees operations has
there been so much excitement in San Fran
cisco as there is to day over this acquittal.
