The New COUNTERFEIT FIFTY CENT
NoTE There is counterfeit afoat OF
the new issue of fifty cent currency. 1t
has been SO skillfully executed that it as
doubtful whether one man in ten has
knowledge of its existence. It is said
1t appeared two days after the issue Of
of the genuine If this be SO, it is evi-,
dent that some one who had access to
the genuine plate must be connected
with those persons who lave issued
this counterfeit. The "get-up'' of the
note is almost perfect. No difference
can be distinguished between the print
ing and engraving of the genuine and
counterfeit, so experts decide by the pa
per it is printed on, and by the ''loop'
in Up" of Treasurer Spinner's name.
On the right hand upper corner of each
note will be found the lower half of the
loop of this letter. Ifthis is not there
the note is counterfeit.

Billings Gate outaone.

Johnson once made bet with Bos-
well that he could go into the fish mar
ket and put woman in passion with
out saying word she could understand
The Doctor commenced by silently In
dication with his nose that her fish had
passed that state in which mans OIL
factories could endure their oder.
The Billingsgate lady made a verbal
attack in common parlance. The Doc
tor answered:
"You are al. article, madam"
ssNo more an article than yourself,
you misbegotten william
"You are noun, woman
"You-you," stammered the woman,
choking with rage at a list of titles she
could not understand.
s'You are a pronoun. +"
The bedlam shook her fists in speech
less rage.
'sYou are verb, an adverb, an ad
jective, a conjunction, a proposition, an
inteGection!" suddenly continued the
Doctor, applying the-harmless epithets
at proper intervals.
I he nine parts Of speech completely
conquered the old woman, and she
flung herself down in the mud, crying
with rage at being thus sEblackguarded
ID q set of.uhknown terms, which, not
understanding she could not answer.

MURDER BROUGHT TO LIGHT AFTER CON
CEALMENT FOR TwENTY-oNE YEARS.
About twenty-one years ago a travel
ing preacher by the name of Edgil,
whose first name is not remembered
from some place in Ohio, a member of
what was at that time known as the
Campbellite church, came into the viCin-
ity of what is known as Titusville. At
ter remaining for a few days he con-
tracted for a farm, at the sum of $3000
cash, and was making his headquarters
with one Cf his ''tlOck, as the preacher
would term it The day came to pass
the title The reverend gentleman lay
sick at the house of his host. The seller,
willing to execute his part of the con-
tract, and the buyer being too unwell to
attend, consented that the seller should
20 and have the deed executed in due
form, and that at the place of his sick
ness he would prepare bis part OF the
contract Upon the return OF the seller
the purchaser was worse, and the matter
was DELAYED until morning.
In the morning the seller appeared
and enquired for the purchaser, but was
informed that he was better, as suppOs-
ed, as he had been quiet during the lat
ter part of the night, and had not yet
risen. The seller being somewhat in
haste, demanded to be shown to his
room, when the hostess offered her SER
vices to see how he was, and report.
On her return she reported HIM absent,
and supposed that be had risen early and
gone to see the purchaser, which proved
to be false. Many were the conJectures
as to the finale of the missing man.
Some supposed that he had been fOully
dealt with; others Conjectured that he
was a thief, had stolen a horse or other
property, and had departed for other
parts to practice the same thing. Some
of the most suspecting made private
search, and declared that the preacher
had been foully dealt with. During the
stay of Rev. Mr.. Edgil he was called
upon to solemniZe the rites of matri-
mony, which he did in accordance with
the rules of the church which he repre-
sented.
He failed to return the marriage certi-
ficate, as required by the law of our
State, and some months after the couple
procured license, proceeded to the Of
fee of justice of the peace and had
their first work done over, so far as the
marriage ceremony is concerned. Here
the preacher was permitted to remain
nearly forgotten for twenty-one years.
A few days since some workmen engag.
ed in quarrying rock about two miles
from the place where the preacher was
last seen unearthed, or rather unrocked
human skeleton in an advanced state
of decay, which is by all who remember
the circumstances of the disappearance
of the land purchaser supposed to be hi:
remains. The parties who attended The
preacher in his last Illness have nearly

MONTPELIER AND RUTLAND RAILROAD.
A meeting of the commissioners nam
ed in the charter of this railroad compa-
NY has been called to be held at the
Rochester House, in the village of
Rochester, on Tuesday, the 14th of Jan
uary, 1878, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon
The Commissioners are L. P. Walton,
Samuel Wells, Benjamin Barrett, n. r.
Spalding, Harvey Bulkley, Ira Richard
son, George o. Boyce. Geo. w. Cardell,
Geo. V. Wilson, John B. Darling, Royal
II. Tupper, Albert Whitcomb, Martin
Thomas, Orel Cook, Frederick Chaffee,
and Charles III. Joyce. The charter au-
thorizes the construction of a railroad, of
any desired guage, from the Vermont
Central road in Montpelier, or Middle
sex, or both, through Berlin, Middlesex,
Moretown, Waitsfeld, Warren, Gran
Vile, Goshen, Hancock, Rochester,
Stockbridge, Pittsfield. Sherburne, Men
don, Chittenden, Pittsford and Brandon
or such of them as may be selected
to Rutland with the right to construct
a branch from Rochester, Pittsford or
Sherburne, through Rochester, Pittsield,
Sherburne and Bethel, or such as may
be selected, to connect with the Central
road at Bethel or Royalton. By other
charters railroad is authorized from
Troy or Newport to Montpelier, and
thus by the two projects, a new rail-
road may be opened through the center
of the State from Canada line to Rut-
land. The necessities of the case will
require cheap, narrow gauge roads, and
this circumstance renders the scheme
feasible, and commends it TO the favor
of the broad guage roads to which it
will contribute largely. The line from
Montpelier to Canada has been already
surveyed, with highly favorable results.
The purpose of the meeting at Roches-
ter is to take measures to invite the peo-
pie of the towns interested to unite in
procuring preliminary surveys from
Montpelier to Rutland, and thus pre-
pare the way for operating under the
charter in case success is attainable. 1t
is hoped every commissioner will be
present at the meeting in Rochester,
and all others interested are invited to
attend.
