A SUCCESSFUL Conspiracy.

Apropos of the Beecher-T Tilton story.
now attracting general attention, a
correspondent of the Meadville Rep,b.
hcan relates how an innocent minister
was convicted of crime in Oswego
county, New York, some twenty-five
years ago:
Elder B. was a preacher of good re.
pute and standing and had some prop.
erty, though not too much; enough,
however, to tempt conspiracy against
him. MIR. ID. was a man of low aspira-
tions, vicious character, and vicious
habits, and was well known as such.
Mrs. D., his wife, was good looking,
shrewd, and widely known, but not
for her virtues. Their house had for
years borne bad reputation. During
a religious revival in the place a
bright idea dawned upon the mind of
Mrs. d., and she attended the meeting
and manifested deep concern for her
sins. She invited the preacher to visit
her at her parlor, and advise with her.
lnnoeently and without suspicion of
evil he called upon Mrs. d. and they
conycrsed alone in her parlor, but

Those who are in any manner fa.
miliar with the subject of the troubles
with Indians on our Western frontiers
VIII doubtless remember that in nearly
every instance where there has been
anything approaching q general dem
onstration on the part of the savages,
the cause was traced ultimately to
some act of treachery or unlawful nro.
ceeding on the part Of the whites, and
the presence of the Comanches, Kio-
was and Cheyennes upon the war path
at this time is attributable to this
same kind of provocation. 1t is shown
in General Pope's orders that certain
white traders had established trading
posts among certain of the tribes in
violation of the law, and not only had
they invaded the territory of the Indi.
ans, but they had sold them liquor.
cheated them and afforded support
and shelter to "buffalo hunters and
ruffians" who persistently prey upon
the savages. General Pope holds
these whites completely responsible for
the uprising of the savages, and for
the consequen: murder Of the innocent
white settlers upon the frontier, and
we have no doubt that his estimate is
precisely correct. The Indians. os
course, must be put down by sorce.
when they are in a hostile position it
is too late to attempt any other course
than that which aims at their suppress.
sion by the army. But there appears
to be reason for believing that if a
portion of the energy that is manifest
ed in subduing the Indiqns after hos
tilitles begin should be displayed in
their white assailants before
the savages are goaded into frenzy, at
least some Of these terrible and costly
demonstrations, the victims of which
are nnoiiending people, might be
avoided Gazette.

The notes should be stopped separate

vent the circulation of the counterfeit.
Saturday forenoon a sad accident
occurred short distance below Scrub
grass. The train was making a switch
when one of the brakemen, named
Peter Cunningham, who was standing
on top of the cars fell and was run
over by part of the train. His body
was mangled, and before medical at.

1t is not claimed that the Repub-
