Remarkable matchmaking.


The Taunton (Mass.l Republican
says:
"The cxtortion of $780, 900 from Cap
tain Robert Tuckcrman, a prominent
citizen OF New Bedford, by William
III. Hathaway and Mr.. and Mrs. AM
brosc w. Landre, is one Of the largest
blackmailing operations on record
Mrs. Landre is the wife of Mr.. Tuck
crman's son, who died in January last,
and the widow, with unseemly haste,
married Landre in few weeks after
her husbands death. Hathaway is her
brother. These three appear to have
planned to get Mr.: Tuckerman, who is
rs years old, to their house in Matra-
poisett, when he was inveigled into the
chamber of Mrs. Landre by her, who
put her arms around him, and lust at
this moment in walks Hathaway, and
in the highest rage threatens to kill
him, to tell his wife, and frightened
him into promising to pay $4,000 for
silence. This promise he kept, paying
the money to Hathaway in bonds. A
short time afterward Mrs. Landre de-
manded 81 600, which Mr.. Tuckerman
pau neF. "A lew WeekS aILefWafQ
Hathaway demanded $4,000 more, but
was induced to take up with $4,000,
giving a promise in writing that he
would keep silence without demanding
more. Suspicious of what had been
done reached the ears of the City Mar
shall, who interviewed Captain Tuck
erman and ascertained its truth. The
parties were ARRESTED, and were to
have been tried before the Police
Court, but the matter was comprom-
ed by the parties by their returning
$4,000 to the old gentleman. The Po-
lice Judge, however, was not willing
10 let the case drop thus, and it was
sent to the Grand Jury this week, who
returned indictments against Hatha-
way and Mr.. and Mrs. Landre.

Crooks Foolish Prisoners.

We are rather sorry that General
Crook didn't capture the Modocs. Du.
ring the war il was observed that
when General Crook was sent after
bushwhackers he never brought any
into camp they always met with some
accident. We remember an illustra-
tive occasion. Crook, then colonel of
the Seth Ohio, reported to Rosecrans
at Cross Lanes, after the battle of
Garnifax Ferry. Rosecrans was de-
lighted to see him, because he had a
good helper. The bushwkackcrs were
very troublesome. Crook was ordered
to squelch them.
About len days afterward Crook
came into headquarters, looking like a
man who had been sleeping out o.
nights. Rosccrans and the rest of MS
greeted him warmly, and after glass
oi.-water. said:
Rosy.-"Well, Crook, what did you
do?"
Crook Cleaned ont the BUSH
whackcrs."
Rosy.-"Didn't you take any prison
ers p
Crook, drawling.-"Well, yes, 1 did
have seven, but the id fools fell off
a tree and broke their necks.'
Headquarters took more water.

Fred Douglass, member of the
Board Of Trustees of Howard Uniyer-
sity, has this to say in his paper, upon
the charges against General Howard.
"It is known to MS that this attack
upon the Howard University has its
main spring and support not in any
superior regard for public virtue, not
in a desire to unmask corruption, but
in malignant spirit OF revenge.
While the Howard University allow
ed its professors to be members of its
Board of Trustees; to fix their own
salaries to manage the trust in their
own way, the tongues of those malig-
nant accusers were silent: but SO soon
as reformation in this respect is car
ried, the salaries of paid professors re-
duced, and expenses brought within
the income, and the university itself
placed upon a sound business founda-
ton, these fat.salaried professors, who
were never in sympathy with the
great object of the institution, now
turn their envenomed shafts against
it, and are doing all they can do to
bring its President to discredit. 1t is
the old spirit of rebellion, resolved to
ruin where it cannot rule. We have
no doubt that General Howard has
made mistakes in several INSTANCES but
we have equally no doubt of the rec
titnde of his intentions and in his un-
selfish devotion to the interest of
Howard University, and that he will
come out Of this trial, as out of all
others through which he has passed, a
man of spotless integrity"

THE BIBLE IN SCHOOLS.

A case arose in Cincinnati, Ohio, in
1869, in reference to the reading of the
bible in the public schools of that city.
The action Of the Board OF Education
had been to require that each school
should be opened every morning by
reading passages Of Scripture to be
followed by singing exercise. Some
citizens obtained an Injunction to stop
such exercises. The case went finally
to the Supreme Court OF the State, and
decision therein has recently been
reached. The substance of the opiu-
ion of the Court is as follows:
1. The Constitution of the State
does not enjoin or require religious
instruction, OF the reading of religious
books in the public Schools Of the
State.
,. The legislature having placed
the management OF the public schools
under the exclusive control of Directors
Trustees, and Boards of Education, the
Courts have no rightful authority to
interfere by directing whist instruction
shall be given, or what shall be read
therein.
This decision leaves these regu)a.
tions with the Trustees of schools, and
their conclusions it would seem, are
final. The decision comes at time
when a new constitution is being franz
ed for the State, and may awaken dis
cnssion and some action on the sub
iect.

About two O'Clock Sunday morning,
twenty masked men broke into the
jail at Salem, Ind, where Delos Hef-
ron was confined for the murder of
Halstead, a few days ago. The pris-
oncr retreated to the inner cell and
showed fight. Burning balls of
fire were thrown at him, and he was
also shot several times. He was then
taken to the railroad bridge near by
and hung until he was dead. The
mob then dispersed.

The Pclla Bladc of the Goth. has this
to say of Swindlers: GA number of
persons have been through this coun-
ty during the past two weeks, and
made rich haul of greenbacks, in all
amounting to some $1,000 These men,
five in number, each took different
routes, having with them lot of cloth,
shawls, etc. They visited every farm
CT Of means, inducing them to buy,
saying that the goods were imported
directly from the East by them at low
figures ; that they were in favor O. the
Changers, and did not propose to let
the middle men have such large
profit off the farmers. They could sell
cheap and didn't want any money.
their notes were sufficient Numbers
bit, and have since learned that the
goods were of no account, and that
they had been swindled. The goods
were all 'sshoddy," and had been man
ufactured expressly for the swindling
business. AS soon as the men had the
notes they were satisfied, and went to
tho different banks and had them
Shaved putting the money in their
pockets. Now these men are '.cussed
and discussed" at large.
We warned our farmer friends
against these and other swindlers a
short time ago. The trouble is great
many are under the impression that
our home merchants are making tre-
mcndous large profit ON their goods,
and are not trusted, but when q very
smooth-tongued swindler comes along
his words and goods are taken at a
high figure, and afterwards neither are
found to be of any value. We give
here below another warning, and hope
il will be needed. We learn that there
is now travelling through this and adj
joining counties, swindler claiming
to he the agent for different farm inn
plements-among them the Champion
Reaper and Mower, which he is Offer
ing for much less than the regular
price. His mode of operating is to
| collect freight on what he sells-and if
the victim is sufficiently gullible-a
portion OF the purchase money in adj
vance, which he appropriates to his
own use. Up to the 18th of this
month he had succeeded in selling
goods to the amount of $4,000, and is
now still doing thriving business

THE so. CALLED PEOPLE's MOVE.

THE So.CALLED PEOPLES MOVE.
We are informed that call s.beang
circulated by certain parties for signers
for Peoples County Convention In
this county. We hear too that certain
parties in this city affect to have moth
ing to do with it, because the odor of
their record and character might spoil
the broth. In their cunning they say,
let us stand back; we can set the thing
in motion, but it won't do for US to
appear to have anything to do with 1t.
Now we happen to kno,e that one Of
the chaps who says this. and who has
been foremost in the Protective union
dodge, drafted the call that is now be-
ing circulated for q Peoples conven-
ton. He adroitly says, however, that
it is not best for him TO sign it. This
early movement is for no other pur.
pose than to cntrap unwary Republic
cans. II is to get them committed long
before hand and then to appeal to their
pride to stand to it. when they, upon
careful investigation and sober rctiec-
ton find that they have made mistake.
The canvass is vet somewhat In the
distance, and we make The simple sug-
gestion to Republicans TO be careful
that they do not take step that they
will soon regret.
We hear of no inroads upon the Re.
publican party save here and there a
man. but we are sorry to see any one
caioled into course of policy that il
simply trick OF democracy and which
will prove disastrous.

General Beanregard was once an

degraded eN Confederate, who has
