The female clerks employed in
U. S, Treasury at Washington have
lost gallant champion by Treasurer
Spinner's resignation. A detective
who was lately employed to hunt up
some money that was recently stolen
from the National Bank Of Redemp-
ton came to Spinner and said Il
suspect one or two women" Spinner
shook his head and said "You are
wrong, d Il it woman won't
steal. Now, | know they won't.
They have not got the nerve. The
reason | prefer women as counters is
because they won't steal. If they do
steal they won't take over one or two
dollars, because, as | said before, they
haven't got nerve. fla woman steals
any large amount yon can make up
your mind she has pal outside, and
that he is man."

deceased, Of one of the brightest
flowers that ever bloomed in the
garden Of life; who, n little more
than one year ago, embraced Christ,
was baptised, and from that time IN
til his death, Christ was the idol of
his heart, prompting him to deeds of
christian virtue he leaves behind for
the comfort of parents and friends en-
nnstained character which he has
noblv sustained all through his youth

let fever was the cause of his death. -

We suppose why the 18th OF June is

by Thomas Freeman and others, a
distance of more than a hundred miles
away.

In September, 1874, church trial, in which
the principals were the Rev. Daniel Sommer,
pastor of the Dolphin Street Disciples Church,
and the Rev. A. N. Gilbert, pastor of the
Paca Street Disciples Church, Baltimore,
attracted a goood deal of attention. Mr.. Som
mer was charged with saying things derogatory
to the character of Mr.. Gilbert lie gave AZ his
authority the Rev. w. l.. Hayden, then pastor
in Philadelphia. Mr.. Hayden went on and tes-
tilted in the case. He stated that some women
had told him of Mr.. Glbert's indiscretions He
afterwards put to his testimony an appendix
that seemed to discredt what the woman had
said. The Church court settled the matter, and
the ministers turned their attention to the care
of their tlocks.
Mr. Hayden moved to Canton, Ohio, became
the pastor of n fourishing church, and the
recipient Of numerous testimonials. Meanwhile
Rev. Mr. Gilbert was written to to learn some
thing of Mr.. Hayden's character, to which he ro-
Piled charging MIR. Hayden with fasehood, rail
ing, slandor and subornation of false testimony,
traitor to friendshp,to tho church and to God.
All this he refuses to retract and SUIT was be-

MORE ABOUT THE ROTTEN PEAcHEs-sEvEN HUN
DRED BASKETS Thrown AWAY,
Correspondence ofthe Commercial.
MIDDLETowN, Sept u.
| noticed al article in the COMMERCIAL, OF last
Saturday, in relation to the refrigerating OF
peaches at Messrs. Riker Co.'s building, near
this town. and at once concluded to investigate
some OF the statements therein made, but no in
formation could be CLEANED except by seeing, as
those in charge OF the building are rather un-
communicative in the absence Of the principal
member OF the firm. There had been various
rnmors in circulation, last week. one being that
tho peaches, when taken out of the building,
tasted of the pine boxes in which they were
placed.
After this came the news that peaches were
being taken from the building rotten and thrown
away. Tho last statement was too true, for near
the building are piled six or seven hundred bas-
kets of fine fruit OF early varieties. This may
be the result of All experiment, but it is costly
one, and the fact is undeniable yet TOO baskets
is very small loss from the 5000 or 2O,0OU
now slowed in the building great interest Is
taken in this refrigerator, the success and fail
ure of which is daily argued In all places where
peach men meet, as many of them have large
quantities on deposit.
