OOUNTERFEITERs,

FOR some time past officers of the
United States secret service, under chief
Washburn, have been shadowing a posse
of counterfeltefs, who have been doing
an extensive business. The band has
been operating probably for years, and
had It's headquarters at Boscobel. It
consisted of Malcolm Robinson. Frank
Brown, Kale Ellis and woman named
Robinson, all of whom have been arrest
ed. The detective found 5000 in
counterfeit 50-cent pieces, besides all
their working materials, consisting of
dies, press and paper, there being paper
enough to work off about $40. OGo of
the spurious stuff The work has been
carried on ct the house OF Robinson.
who is harness maker, and resided in
rooms over his shop, where the head
quarters of the "queer" were overhauled.
Frank Brown is pedler OF patent wag-
onlifters, and probably used that occ,l-
patton to cover operations in the more
lucrative business of showing the
queer" The detectives have had
clue for a considerable time, but only
got it in position to work proftably
about three weeks or a month ago.
The chef of the gang is Kale Ellis,
who is said to have been counterfeiter
for about eight years, but how the
others got into the business Is not re-
lated. They are reported to have got
rid of $15, 900 worth of the stuff from
their unpretentious quarters here. It is
said their surprise and confusion when
the detectives swooped down on them
was beyond description. They were
taken to Madison Friday morning.

LEXIEGToN-CoNcoRD CENTENNIAL,

One hundred years ago this 10th day
of April was fought the opening battle
of the Revolution. At Concord, near
the old North Bridge, nine and ten
o'clock in the forenoon, was
Fired the shot heard round the world"
But patriotic blood had been shed a
few hours before by British troops at
Lexington, and i'll noticing the censen-
niai celebration of the day we viii recall
some OF the leading incidents of that
memol liable fight
In April 1775 Gen. Gage had com
mand of ten regiments OF British troops,
stationed IN Boston This was consid-
cred about as rebeliious a place as there
was. The year before the tea had been
thrown into the harbor, and the public
men there were outspoken in their op-
position to British rule. Concord, also,
q town twenty miles northwest of Bos-
ton, was noted for it's patriotism
There, in 1773 was uttered over the
grave of John Jack, an African, ''the
first emancipation proclamation, the
opening lines are:
God wills us free; man wills us slaves;
will as God wills; Gods will be done.
At Concord, the winter before, the
patriots, headed by John Adams and
John Hancock, had dehberated ON the
dangers of the country, and here the
powder and balls, provisions and cannon
were concealed in barns, cellars, and
fields of the prominent men. Fourteen

The Delevan Republican states that a
young man hailing from the town OF
Walworth got slightly intoxicated, and,
among other things, made an assault
upon an old lady 10 years of age. He
was arrested, and sentenced to the
county jail, but while Judge Menzie
was busy making out the commitment
papers the prisoner quietly stepped out
of and down from the temple of justice,
and, to show his utter contempt for
judge, jury, sheriff, and spectators, he
turned the key in the door, and locked
them all inside, and then, elevating HIM
self on his left ear, waltzed off, and has
not been seen since.

TEE rumors in circulation thai Mr.

THE rumors in circulation thai Mrs.
Tilton, unless called to testify, will pub
lish asworn statement denying the charge
of adultery appear to be well founded.
It is now further alleged that in such
statement she Will admit having had
conversations with Miss Anthony, Mrs.
Bradshaw and others, in which she said
certain untruthful things concerning her
intimacy with Mr.. Beecher, but declared
that she did so for a specific purpose,
which she will fully explain. By such a
statement she anticipates the testimony
of all to whom she made confessions of a
guilty intercourse, and robs that testi-
mony of its force by alleging good rea-
sons for thus deliberately preyaricat-
ing.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The Chicago Tribune says of Mr..

Beecher's testimony:
The battle of one mans oath against
the oaths of five or six RACES furiously,
and the looker-on must in the end go
over the field and decide which of the
slain are dead enough for burial in one
common trench of shame and infamy
There will be differences of opinion on
this question for all time and we cannot
see how these 7ariances are TO be mater
tally harmonized by Mr.. Beecher's ex-
planation of the celebrated ''down and
out" and ragged edge letter. Those
who would take his word against all the
world will be strengthened ii the belief
of his innocence; while the cold, calcu-
lating, doubling members of the jury of
public opinion will find little in the ez-
planation to overcome the impressions
first produced by this and other letters
written by Mr.. Beecher.

TIE renort Of the Com mittee or

THE report of the Committee on Elec-
tions, enjoying the terms of the award
was adopted in the Louisiana House on
Thursday, by a vote of 80 TO 15. Most
of the members displaced made speeches
intimaung their acquiescence. Mr..
Poindexter, of Assumption, one of the
colored members olsted by the award,
said he had the satisfaction of giving up
his seat to know that his old master, who
had always been just and kind, would
take it. This was an honor which did
not occur every day.

INDEPENDENr journals have mad a
great deal to say about the extravaganza
and corruption OF carpet bag govern
ment in the South, but we have, so far,
failed to discover any allusion to the re-
port that the Democratic, native, Gar
land government of Arkansas, in the few
months that it has been in power, has
increased the expenditures of the state
$50, 600 over the Republican administra-
ton. It seems to make a differance

THERE is little doubt that President
Grants life has been in danger for the
last few days from crazy man. The
detectives have arrested very suspicious

been lurking about the White House,
and has occasionally waited in the ante
room, with other visitors, to see the
President. He was taken into custody,
and a loaded revolver was found upon
his person. He gave his name as John

"Gen. Pennypacker, commanding the post

citation last week, and then went back to
Nashville and carried his superb band Of
music 10 MurfreesbOTo, TO lend dignity aud
pleasure to the occasion. This is especial
" noticeable, because Federal Generals are
not in the habit Of manifesting any regard
for the Southern people. In Gen. Penny
packers conduct we recognize the actions
OF patriot and statesman. He feels it his
duty to make manifest to our people the
desire of the North for a real reconciliation
between the sections; and he cannot so well
DO so SIS by mingling with them socially,
and joining in their festivities. He was
CT ppled for life in tie war, and can afford
TO mingle with ex-COnfederates. Let good
men like Gen. Pennypacker be sent TO every
position in the South, and in a few years
strong and healthy regard and affection for
the Union will prevail"
