were there the day before the election OF

Coop WORDS FOR ASANIAs.-Thc Rev.
George l.. Cn;tney preached at H0llis-Strcet
church, New York, last Sunday morning.
Lis text was from Psalms cxvi., II: 81 said
in my haste. all men are liars" and his
subject w;l:. " A Plea for Ananias." After
repeating tlic story of AnanElS and calling
for Tie sympathy Of his hearers, he carried
out the very letter of his text in al elaborate
plea for his defendant. 1t was fac Similc
OF the plan Of defence adopted in the courts
and legislatures in behalf of criminals. Tie
prudence Of Anani;ls in reserying part Of his
property for his family, his wisdom in seeing
tic evil results IF a communistic society, his
generosity in the Gift of half his fortune to
tho Church, and lastly, the Tenderness; OF his
conscience, in that when charged with his
guilt he was So overcome by his noble sense
OF shame that he fell down and gave up the
ghost, were I'LL enlarged upon, and tho whole
was ntcrSrrSCd with the sensational and
sympathetic element SO commonly used, and
with such great influence. Having coz
sumca half an hour in his plea, and puzzled
his congregation Us to bis meaning, he sud-
denly relieved all minds of any misapprc-
hcli>iun by saying that the whole defence
had been lnl &c by hi, c;lrnil man and not by
himself. lie dctcSlcl iG. All its argument
was Irrelevant, al! its praise exaggerated, I'LL
its emotion WAS ins!nccrc, all It's effort was
unworthy OF IN honest advocate, and Its
conclusion WIS Il sheer piece OF dcmoraIlzlDS
rhetoric; and yet no argument had been
brought, no method rcSOrted to, no feeling
protested, no rhetoric used, which had not
become the common and accepted plans for
defence used i'll the courts, legislatures, and,
as was that day seen. in the Christian pull
pits. lie hoped God would send new
PcutccoSt, which would sweep the land and
rid it Of the deadly miaslna which now
broodcd upon the people and their institu
tunS.

Counting New GREESBACEs.--YearSof cX-
pcricnce have made the. counters who have
been longest employed marvellously expert
and almost infa!lihlr, their fingers passing
from one note TO another with the celebrity
aud regularity Of some wonderful machine.
The lady who sits nearest to the chief Of the
room. and who has come to be considered Il
sort of assistant TO him, having sometimes
performed his duties during his absence,
has been engaged in the division ever since
its organization in 1852, and probably has
no rival in accuracy and dcXlcrity in count
ing. On many occasions she has counted
fifty thousand notes in one day. As the
nominal hours of labor are from 10 5
o'clock, and rs at least llaIran hour must be
deducted from this for necessary inter
ruptions aud for lunch, the time occupied
was five and Il half hours. This is
at the rate of nine thousand and
ninety notes every hour, one hundred and
fifty every minute, aud two and Il half every
second. The lady informs Us that ii is ~
lnllSlr. feat for her to "pick up" Il bundle
containing four thousand lcgal-icnGcr notes
in twenty minutes. We doubt whether this
can be eNccllcd. If any gentleman thinks ii
en-, let lin Try the experiment Of simply
tipping his finger on Il table at The above
rate, and we predict That at the end Of halt
III hours trial lie will change his mind
there are other ladies who are almost as
rapid aud accurate. They are sometimes
called upon with Others equally ski!lul from
The redemption division (Which we shall
visit presently to visit other citics, when
The treasury Offices in those places are to be
examined, and TO assist in counting the
Government funds there.
Through this division and under these
sklIu fingers has passed every note, whether
lrgal-tcnllcr or fractional, which has been
issued l!y The United States since the begin
ming Of the rc!cllion-cvcry note which we
have ever handled Or sccn--;lS We'll lis all the
gold notes, and many millions OF imperfect
bonds and notes which were never put il
circulation. The total value Of The money
which had been counted in this division pre-
yio,sly to The lst day Of July, 1872, was, ac
cording to the Treasurcr's last annual report
nearly Two thousand nine hundred million!
dollars, more than two hundred and twenty
three millions of wllch consisted of plsla
and fractional currency. Just now tht
counters find fnli employment i'll counting
new IcYal-tendHr and fractional notes.
