Beecher Case.
From the Huntington (Va.) Adverti-


1t is shame, indeed, that band
of foul carrion crows should be al
lowed to pick at the character of one
whose great fault is that he stands SO
far above them that he can not get
down to their level, nor understand
how to meet the petty maleyOlenee
and devilish spite of their little souls;
we have no doubt that when the
truth of this business is known,
which it certainly will he at some
day, the conspiracy of Tilton and
Moulton will be found to he just as
corrupt as that of Loeder and Price,
who arc now awaiting their trial for
manufacturing false atfidavits to help
break down Mr.. Beecher's reputa-
tion. AS Southern man, we are
not friendly to Mr.. Beecher, but were
rather inclined to believe that he was
guilty until we read the evidence in
the case by which we have been CON
vinced that the whole thing is 4 base
conspiracy by Tilton to pull down
man whose genius overshadowed
him. With him it was the old cry:
"dat Cesar, dut nHlluS."

.Innanese Money.

One of the greatest curiosities in
Japan to the stranger is the wonder
full variety of coins that are used dai-
ly. In some instances it takes ], 200
pieoos TO make 81. These are called
'oash," and are seldom received by
foreigners, who rs a general rule, re-
fuse to take them in change. lmag-
inc making trade of five cents and
giving a man fifty cent piece, then
receiving in change 450 Of these cop
pers. This coin is peculiarly made,
having a square hole in the center.
They are about the size of our dime
pieces, and nearly two-thirds the
thickness. Next to this comes the
quarters of a cent, and the one and
two-cent pieces. In silver coins they
have the five, ten, twenty, tifty-cent
and one-dollar pieces. In gold the
one. two, five, ten, and twenty dollars,
which are very pretty coinages in
deed. Next to this comes the gay-
ernment series of paper maney, in
various denominations. ranging from
five cents 10 $l00. This money is
made ON quite inferior paper to ours,
and from general appearance will not
last like the American money.

a Good INDIAN Story.

The recent celebration at Mays
vile, Ky., of the centennial OF the
first complaining in Mason county
brought out the following story: On
the 22d of June, 1880. u company oil
six hundred Canadians and Indians
under Col. Byrd, British officer,
came with six cannons, in boats or
canoes, down the Big Miami river.
up the Ohio to where Covington now
stands, thence up the Licking river
to Riddles or Hinkson's Station.
Their approach was most painfully
.hcralded to the little company
of settlers by the booming Of n can
mona sound which had never be-
fore walked the echoes in Kentucky
A surrender was demanded, with
promise of protection by the British
from Indian ferocity and indignlties,
and of kind treatment rs prisoners.
But no white man ever yet could re-
strain the terrible passions of In
dian warriors with prisoners in their
hands, and in this case several were
murdered and others threatened with
death and barbarously treated be-
fore Col. Byrd could arrest their ter
rible fate by threats of instantly re-
turning to Canada and abandoning
the expedition. Martins Station,
five miles distant and three miles
below Paris, on Stoner creek, was
surrounded afterward; but the pris
Oners were saved from death by Col
Byrd, although the Indians divided
the spoils among themselves. Among
the captured at Riddles Station were
several boys. John Ruddle could
not travel because of Il stone hruise
on his foot; he was tOmahawked and
scaiped, but his two young brothers,
Abraham and Stephen, were spared
because of their cheerfulness and
bravery. George and John Sail, two
little boys, the latter only two years
old, were about to he tomahawked, as
too young to be of any value as
prisoners, when warrior less blood
thirsty than the rest proposed 4 test
of Johns capability of endurance
and nerve. To ascertain if he would
make a plucky Indian, and so he
worth the raising, they determined to
roll him down high and steep stony
bank, where the knocks and bruises
would sorely try him. He under
went the cruel ordeal without u
whimper or wincing, or any show of
fear or suffering; and with smile,
hogan to Chamber up the bank, seem
ing to say, "Do that again" Snch
coolness and elf-possession in a lit
tie child struck them with intense ad-
miration, and they adopted him and
his hrother. George grew up to
manhood and married among them
but john was ransomed in few
years, returned to Harrison county,
and lived Il long and useful life.

From the Cincinnati Commercial. ]

L
The spirit of prophecy, it may be
remembered, was upon the great
William Allen, at Hamilton, Septem-
Der 10, 1868. He said:
"Lincoln has shed enough blood to
float the Great Eastern. and how
much nearer the end does he get.
His cry is still for blood. The Adj
ministration stands on tip-toe every
day, with its eyes distended, and its
i arms stretched forth calling on the
American people for more blood and
more money. And their preachers
those Chicago priests that went to
Detroit to get Lincoln to bite the for
hidden fruit. to commit the first act,
the initial sin, by the publication of
an act emancipating the slaves
these priests, | would not like to
have met these fellows; they went
down canting and whining, their
mouths all the way watering for the
blood of the people. Every one of
them thought that God had made it
his special business to go and beg
Lincoln to commence the business of
numbering the American people.
"One of two things must happen.
If these Abolitionists succeed, they
can only do so by destroying the
State Governments of the South, and
thereby destroy, in fact, the whole
State Governments of the North;
they can only succeed by establishing
despotism, garrisoning the whole
of the South, seven or eight hun
dred thousand strong, the cost, nay,
the interest of which would take the
best farms from under your feet.
And this would not be the greatest
evil should they succeed. Here are
four millions of negroes; they have
hitherto been kept on that side of the
line merely because they could not
come this side of it. II the Aboli-
tion party succeeds, all we have to do
pU be to make oar preparations to
90 Where breddstNPs are cheap, and
90 from the region towdId whtch the
negro graUitates. These negroes will
come docking over our river by the
hundred thousand. Now, what do
you want of them? They will occu-
py the places left vacant by the mui'
dered Uhite meR, men aUhO haze been
H,WfIered iss order that these aegf0es
should get a ohanoe Of settling here.
"IAey commence bringing Ia The
aigger to push off the Irishmdn and
Dutchmda, not because they are alto
gether angry with these people fOf
voting the Democratic ticket, though
that is great reason; but | will tell
you, my friends, if this abolition par
| ty succeeds in breaking up our
! Government, in breaking up the
State Governments, trampling on the
Constitution, the next thing they will
do will be To inaugurate religious
war; They will appeal to the reli-
gious preiudices of the country; they
will band the disciples Of Knox and
Wesley against the followers Of the
head of the Catholic Church; they
will say, We have succeeded in send
ing our legions to emancipate the ne
groes Of the South when We had no
right; we sent our army to Syria to
fight for the Holy Land; now let Pc
ter the Hermit make another cru
sadie against tho Church Of Rome. y

ONE WAY TO GAIN A HUN
DRED POUNDS.
BY MARY GRACE HALPINE.


Philander Longshanks was ''as thin
as a shadow" to nse the emphatic
language of Mrs. Podgers, his land
lady, who regarded his persistent
thinness in the light of Il personal
grievance.
"a body would think | starved
himw was her Indignant reflection,
one day, as he arose from the dinner
table after having, rs she rnundly as
serted, acaten enough for two.
Mrs. Podgers had the objection that
most notable hnusekeepers entertain
ITO having good victuals wasted,
and they certainly were wasted upon
Philander. The more he ate, the
thinner he seemed to grow.
HE don't do much credit To my es-
tablishment, that's a facte she re-
marked, ruefully, as she looked after
his retreating form, which, tall and
lank to the last degree, was far from
being walking advertisement" q
the fare she provided for her guests.
But it was not Bhi!ander's fault
There was no known method by
which he could increase the small
amount of adipnse matter he earriet
with him that he had not tried.
He had taken quarts of cnd-livel
oil; he had surfeited himself will
sweets, eaten pork, which he detested
and rejected the beef and mutton, il
which his soul delighted, and all Il
no purpose.
He was tall and broad-shouldered
and had his powerful framework beef
sufficiently well covered, would hav'
been noted by all his lady acquain
tances to be looking fellow"
Not that he was bad looking. III
was well cultured, refined and agree
able, and might have been quite
favorite with the fair sex if he ha'
not been SO shy Of them. AS it was
he was in q fair way of becoming tha
forlorn creature, 4 confirmed old bach
elor.
Doctor Marrowfat sat next to hin
at the table, whose round, rubicnn'
face and portly figure were the OF
iects of his envy and admiration.
''How in the world do you keep i
such good flesh, doctor?" he said t
him. one day. "You don't eat s
much rs do, and work harder"
The doctor smiled mysteriously.
i "I'ye gained a hundred pound
during the year."
Philandor stared at the speaker.

Music by ELECTRICITY.

The acme of machine music ap'
pears to have been reached in an in
gcnious instrument which was eN
hibited to Il select few at Philadel-
phia recently. The apparatus reads
notes and plays upon an organ with
absolute correctness OF time and
touch, the only assistance given it by
the operator being TO feed in the end
of Il roll of music and start the ma-
chine in motion. Organs have heen
played by electricity before, hut the
only part performed by the electric
fluid has heen to transmit the power
from distant hank of keys to open
the valve of the instrument. Such
an electrical organ has been exhibit
tod in London for some time past.
In the Schocle in 'trument the elec-
trio current is en- lued with seem
ing intelligence, and distinguishes
the notes in the same way that a
blind man does-by feeling, Mar
velous as this appears at first thought,
it is simple enough. The score Is
written on long roll Of stout paper
by cutting holes through it in the
form of squares or parallelo9rams,
The reading instrument, which Is
about as large as q sewing machine,
is proyided with multitude of small
brass fingers, each of which is con-
nected by o wire with the pipe OF the
organ which il operates. The roll OF
music is fed in over brass tube.
When the fingers rest on the paper
no electric current is transmitted, be-
cause paper is 4 conductor; nut
whenever they fall inta tho holes cut
in it they touch the brass below, the
eur,ent Is transmitted, and the sound
produced. The length of the note
is governed by the length of the
slit in the paper. A noiseless bel
lows-machiae, run by wind, conduct
ef through pipe from the organ,
works the feeding apparatus. To aid
in producing. orchestral effects,
drums, cymbals, bells. ete., are added
to the ordinary pipe organ, and ope-
rated By electricity in the same man
ner as the pipes. A greatly increas-
ed volume of sound and much more
harmony can be made by this instra-
ment than it is possible for y single
performer to produce npan an organ
In consequence of tho fact that the
performer has only ten fingers, while
the electrical machine has two hun
dred, and can strike as many notes
at once as desired. All the notes on
the organ that can be combined into
chord can be brought out together.

SOLOMON HAGAR. who burned him
self MP in his brothers barn at Har-
ward, few days ago, while in fit Of
rum madness, was fnrmerly q respect
able and wealthy man, and was once
a member of the legislature. He had
been crazy from the effects OF liquor
ever since Bunker Hill day. The
cause of his incendiary act was a
threat from his brother that, # he
didn't reform, he would have to leave
his house. He went directly to the
barn with the words, "You will be
sorry for that" and, lying down on
the hay, applied the match.
