ANOTHER MILLIONAIRE SENT TO PRIs-
oN-On Saturday, in the I. S. Court,
at New York, Judge Benedict denied
motion for new trial in the case of
Benoni Howard, the millionaire, con-
vlcted of counterfeiting match stamps.
4 motion in arrest and judgment was
also denied, and Howard was sentenced
to FIVE years Imprisonment in the Peni-
Tertiary He would have been sentenc-
ed for a much longer term had it not
been for his previous good character and
the mitigating circumstances attending
his crime Howard family were living
III state of affluence when his misfor-
tunes began, but have been almost i'm
poverished by his prosecution. His son,
who was partner in his business. and
who is under indictment, is fugitive.
The seizure of his factory by the Reve-
nue. authorities and the competition of
rival match maders are understood to
have been the causes which forced him
to counterfeiting to retrieve his fortune.
Charles Herring and Charles Banhaok,
whealthy match dealers of Hudson city,
who were sent to prison in 1869 for hav-
ing counterfeit plate engraved. attrib-
ute their ruin indirectly to Howard.
| STARvATIoN.-A few nights ago Dr.

John Thompson, alleged soldier, who
was very weak from sheer restitution.
He lost his left leg in the battle of Balls
Bluff while serving in the Second Mass

the war he resumed his trade as a stone
cutter. His old wound gradually i'm
paired his constitution, and he had been
ailiDg since. About year ago he had
to 60 to the Charity Hospital, which he
left about four months ago. He was
unable to obtain work, and lived irregu.
larly. He lodged in a Baxter street
lodging cellar at fifteen CENTS night
The want of sufficient food reduced his
frame to such condition that he became
a walking skeleton. A few nights agc
a civilian found him lying in the snow
on Baxter street unable to move or cal
for assistance. He was borne to th'
police station. He fingered until yes

Especially apply the brush to the folds

OYSTER SAUcE.-Prt half n pint of
milk into stewpan, set it over fire,
mix a tablespoonful of wheat flour with
a quarter of pound of butter; when
the milk boils put to it pint of small
oysters then pour into the butter and
flour half pint of boiling water, stirring

dip it into the solution, and rub the

also remove the glossy appearance along
the seams and upon the elbows.

Cicero on Old Age.

Nothing can be more void of founda-
ton than to assert that old age neces-
sarily disqualities a man from engaging
in the great affairs of the world. AS
well might it be affirmed that the pilot
is totally useless and unengaged in the
business of the ship, because while the
rest of the crew are more actively en-
ployed in their respective departments,
he sits quietly at the helm and directs
it's motions. Ii in the great scents of
business an old man cannot perform a
part which requires the force and energy
of vigorous years, he can act, however,
in nobler and more important charc-
ter.
1t is not by exertions of corporal
strength and activity that the moment
ols affairs of State are conducted it is
by cool deliberation, by prudent coun-
sci, and by that authoritative influence
which ever attends on public esteem
qualifications which are usually strength
ened and improved by increase of years.
The truth is, if abilities of this latter
kind were not the peculiar attributes of
old age, our wise ancestors would not
surely have distinguished the supreme
counsel of the State by the appellation
of the Senate. The Lacedamonians, fol
the same reason, give to the first magis.
trates i'll their Commonwealth the title
of Elders and in fact they are always
chosen out OF that class of men.
