A TERRIBLE TALE OF INrrMrEnANc

A TERRIBLE TALE OF INTEMpERASCE-
AN ENTIRE FAMILY RuINED.-In 1859
rich and respected Albany merchant failed,
and his family were reduced to want. The
father took to drink and while intoxicated
fell into the Hudson and drowned. The
mother died of broken heart. The son
worked in a Broadway store until 1861,
when he enlisted, but at the close Of the
war he too drank heavily and was killed,
while on spree by the cars. One of the
merchants daughters went South to teach
and eloped with gambler and was heard
of no more. Another daughter become adj
dicted to drink and was sent to the Utica
Insane Asylum and died there last Tues
day. A family with a harsher experience
can hardly be found.

On Friday night of last week, says the
Whitehall NewS, party of Railroad la
borers numbering six went to Carriers place
at Chubb's landing, and having imbibed
pretty freely, the bar-keeper refused them
more liquor, they became quarrelsome,
and finally drawing their weapons compelled
him to acced to their demands for rum.
They commenced fighting and rowing,
making night hidesus with their orgies.
Going to their shanty, they kept up the
brawl ending with a fight. Mr. Carter was
absent at the time, and being informed of
the occurrence on his return at once deter
mined to close out his liquor business. He
has removed his bar and other fixtures, and
has reshipped his liquors to those of whom
he purchased them. lie has concluded to
open with general assortment of dry
goods groceries and merchandise, assured
by the people of Dresden of their patron
age. This action of Carriers is warmly ap-
proved by his neighbors, who have been
grieved at the scenes which have been en-
acted since the opening of the liquor bust
ness.

The closeness of the vote in the guberna-
t0ria election III Ohio, and the inlinitessi-
nal majority by which the one or the other
of the contestants will be elected, has re-
called a fact in one of the candidates po-
litical history, which, like the candidate
himself has long been buried in the dead
past William Allen, who was 'resur-
rcctcd' for this particular campaign, and
who will undoubtedly be the next gov
ernor of Ohio, entered Congress with only
one majority TO back him. That one vote,
however, was enough to boost him into the
United States Senate; and when he re-
members this what aspirations will he not
found upon his half hundred, more or
less, majority for governor?

A FAMILY HANDCUFFED.

About four miles below the village of
Catskill, n Y, lives Abraham Post, we'll
TODD farmer. On Friday evening last,
while Mr.. Post, his wife and daughter (tbe
latter % years of age, his son, and hired
man were eating their supper, the door
leading from the main hall suddenly
opened and six men entered the dining
room. They drew their reyolvers, and
placing the weapons at the heads of the
members of the family, told them to keep
quiet or they would blow their brains out
While five of the scoundrcls thus held the
five members of the house at their mercy,
the sixth drew five pairs of new handouts
from under his coat and snapped the
bracelets upon every person at the table cX-
cept the daughter. While he was doing
this, however the daughter gave him such
a talking to that he became eXasperaed
and handcuffed her also. A colored girl
who entered the dining room at the time
was similarly dealt with. Then the
thieves procured bed cord ana securely
tied II around the entire family. One of
them then stood guard over the captured
group while the others ransacked the
house.
They entered every room but one, tore
open bureau drawers. and broke into trunks
and closets. The result of their foraging
was twelve silver teaspoons marked 5. Il.
p, and six marked j. H., twenty knives
and forks, S235 in currency, 800 in gold
coin, ladys gold watch and chain marked
). f. F., $50 worth of icwelry, two Greene
county bonds of $500 each. one check for
: 900 on the Farmers National Bank of
Catskill signed by Mrs Masscno in favor
of II. II. King and endorsed to Abraham
Post, and one check for 5000 on the same
bank signed by Jacob Bergct. and made
| payable to Abraham Post or bearer. The
room which escaped them was occupied by
watch and large sum of money which
they did not get.
For over an hour the thieves remained in
the house, stealing everything of valuc they
could get their hands ON. They even took
the rings from the fingers of their victims
and put them on their uNn. They ther
sat down to the table and ate the supper
prepared for the family. While they were
eating. Edward Post yainly cndeavOret
to free himself. He told his captor
that he had seen two of them the day pre-
vious at the Catskill fair, and one of then
replied, ''Well, what Of it, Having 90
all they wanted, they babe the family gooC
night and quit the house. The imprisoned
men and women tried for an hour to fire.,
themselves, and at length Edward Post die
get loose, and, going to Catskil village
told his story. The sheriff and other
went back with him and released the res
of the family. Then statement Of TIN
robbery was telegraphcd to all prominen
points, with an offer by Mr.. Abraham
Post of $1,000 reward for the arrest of TIN
thieves.
Near the house a paper was found, whicl
may afford clue to the scOundrels.

fair grounds by the gamblers who pretend

at the Armenia fair last week Some of tn
Post family were seriously injured, and al
of them were roughly handled.

Fifty-four million dollars of national
bank circulation is yet to be distributed in
the south and west, although the banks,
who are authorized to issue it, have been
organized and deposited their securities.
The distribution will, it is said, be com
pleted at about the time of the assembling
of Congress, when the comptroller Of the
currency, instead of 'redistributing TWEEN
ty-fve million dollars of currency through
out the country, as directed by law, will
recommend new legislation and await the
action of Congress thereon. The recon-
mendation, as a telegram has it, will be not
for an extension of the banking system, but
fora repeal of the ''redstributng clause"

Thc CIoscd Iron Wills NJ Troy. .

The recent closing of the numerous iron
works in the city of Troy has caused a
material change in the more important
business affairs of that city. The Albany
Iron Works have as yet made out no scale
of prices, and no proposals have been
made to men to go to work. The Burden
mills closed merely because there is no
demand for iron and the market is so dull.
They can give no idea when they will
again start work, but the mills viii remain
closed until the iron market shows an inn
provemcnt. The Burdens gave their men
no notice Of reduction in prices and
have had no conference with the Albany
or Rensselaer, works, and don't intend to
have any. Whatever these mills do they
Will do solely on their own account The
Troy Press makes this statement officially
to correct erroneous reports that haye gone
out. The Griswolds have made out their
new scale of prices on which they propose
to run the mill. A reduction of 10 per
cent. on the wages Of last summer is made
which is about 10 per cent less than the
Rensselaer, mill have given no answer to
to the notification, while the steel works
men say they will not work on such small
pay Should the men refuse to accept the
reduction, the mills will he closed until
business starts up again.
