Editor Herald
The English vocabulary having been
well nigh exhausted by Henri" in lis
communication of the 18th inst, we
almost despair of being able to COM
municate intelligibly few simple
thoughts. Such flourish of trumpets
has scarcely boon known in modern
times. His communication reminded
us of a ticket agents speech at a side
show, who has but one point in view,
that of taking in the quarters. His
was to exhibit literary talent, and he
succeeded most admirably. We had
known that he was profound in point
of literary talent, but now we are will
ling to admit that he is a perfect liter
airy mortar of large caliber. We did
not wonder at his efforts to burlesque
our humble style, for we make no pre-
tentions TO authorship, and knew, of
course, that his critical eye would dis
Germ its many blemishes.
If he had heard that an article had
been prepared in behalf of Mr.. Wood
ward, the appearance of the article
should have convinced him that the
rumor was false, for not word in adj
vocacy of Mr.. W. claims was contain
ed in the article, nor was there word
in disparagemeut of Mr.. Phillips
claims. We simply alluded to the
false light, as we thought, reflected up
on us by the great democratic lumina-
ry of Beaver Dam. His idea "that
we would have the public believe we
lived in Beaver Dam" is erroneous;
we simply thought we lived in "this
part of the county," and if mistaken
in this idea, were honestly so. We
know not the extent of his bailiwick,
nor the distance to which his light is
expected to shine, so if We are beyond
the line of light, we respectfully beg
his pardon. We will not change his
figures in regard to the vote of "our
immediate neighborhood," US we have
not taken a census of the vote, nor of
the little village either, for he certain
ly knows whereof he speaks. Our re-
port given before was simply matter
of opinion, and we do not claim to be
infallible, nor is it our prerogative to
90 around and count noses. We will
now say in conclusion that our commu-
nication was not war upon Mr.. Phil
lips, but it was simply mild response
to our young friend, who chose to. hold
us up to the world in his usual sarcas-
tic manner as the "few democrats" who
had LEFT their party. MIR. Phillips
has made no war upon us, that we are
aware of, either in his public speeches
or in his private conversations, but on
the other hand, his canvass through
our community has been of such a gen.
tlemanly and courteous character as to
win largely upon our esteem, and
should he be the choice of the people,
we, like our friend Henri, will not be
ashamed of HIM as sheriff of our
county. Our opinions given before in
regard to the vote of "this part of the
county" are unchanged, and our ideas

Mr.. II. G.. Glenn and family have
just returned from visit TO friends in
the vicinity of Cerulvo.
During the past three weeks the
store porches have been deserted by
our friends from the country. They
are too busy to give any attention to
their studies in wood carving just
now.
The Airdrie and McDougall coal
mines are operating some. The form
err supplies the Green and Barren
River Navigation Company, and the
latter is filling contracts at Bowling
Green and Calhoon.
DIR. 5. a. jackson, who left us some
weeks ago for an extended tour to Tex

not had much opportunity of hear
ing his experience in the land of prom
Use, but understand he is highly pleas
ed with the features of the country,
and that he had nice time of it down
South.
To approach you the ordinary way,
1 ought to preface my first commune
cation with description of this "beau-
tiful" little town, its "urbane" and
energetic" merchants, its "good" So
cietY, and its "lovely" bellies. But l
will leave this over until l am at a loss
for news, and then this kind of thing
will be acceptable.
Many of your readers will be sorry
to hear that Mr.. f. G. Shull had an
attack of sun-strOke on Thursday last.
" Ras" has been acting as weighing
clerk at the Airdrie mines, and the
constant exposure to the midday sun
proved too much for him. By the
timely aid of DIR. King, he was speed,
lily relieved, and is now progressing
favorably.
One of our oldest and most respect
ed citizens, Mr.. Rudolph YOnts, well
known to some of your readers, died
on Thursday at his residence near
Paradise, at the advanced age of 80.
Although Mr.. Yonts vas considered
to be naturally weak and delicate, he
has lived to this extreme age without
the aid of doctors or medicine of any
kind. He leaves a widow aged Sc
years. 1t is not a little singular that
their married life has extended over a
period of 6S years.
Parties coming to town on business
will notice that one of our most prom

proof against temptation, and resolved
that. 50 far rs they were concerned,
he would still remain Freeman;
We did not notice the presence Of
many diamonds or rare jewels, but
two brilliant RuJy's called forth good
deal of admiration.
Among the many and beautiful
flowers we observed n rare and lovely
Rose just budding into full bloom.
We understood it was the E6ie variety.
Our attention was called to n very
jovial young man and his sister, very
fascinating young lady, who were all
the way from South CarrOllton
Their name is Bnd-Brad-ShuVl !
forget the balance of that name.
There was one gay and festive youth
whom they familiarity called Harry.
He had the size of a man; but, from
his jovial frolicsome manner, We con-
cluded he was mere boy, but upon
inquiry we found that he was Norman
than boy.
A very elegant and graceful dancer,
in the person of a young married lady,
promised her husband before the sol
rec began that she would not partici,
pate in it, but the evening was so en-
jOyable she could not stand the temp.
tation, and so determined to break her
promise, come Vel or woe, and during
the remainder of the evening she took
an active part in the gaiety.
We observed one young fellow there
who seemed to Noe how to enjoy him
self on such occasions, and he was
paving strict attention to the motto,
Ego it while you're yonng."
A very large and plain looking
LocLet was on exhibition during the
early part of the evening. | under
stood it was the property of lady liv-
ing in Henderson, who prizes it very
much. Those who know say it is
made of good material.
The sons of many men were there
reveling in fun and mirth, but Robin
son seem to be cutting about as wide
a swarth as any of them, unless it was
johnson.
We have heard the preachers tell
about the pearly gates of the New Je-
rusalem, but we have no idea that they
are so pretty and attractive as one Of
the Gates we saw there that evening.
The most delicious and tempting
fruit we saw was of the variety called
Haloes.
Many of the young ladies were quite
tall, one in fact was as tall as the Edues
usually are, but she was as graceful as
a queen, while two others we noticed
might very properly be called
Short, although they were taller than
some others present.
We are obliged to the committee Of
young ladies for an invitation to be
present, and of course we were on
hand as large as life and ten times as
natural, and had high old time of it,
which made us feel little the worse
of wear, physically speaking, but we
were able to Barrett, and have recover
ed from the effects of the dissipation.
We were pleased at the absence Of
all intoxicating or foreign drinks, but
we remember very distinctly to have
seen very superior quality of Land
rum, apparently about sixteen years
old, the very presence and sight of
which set the young mems brain to
whirling around like in a state of pleas
ant intoxication.
Well, good bye, girls, may you all
live to the next centennial, and give
another Leap year soiree and invite us
to come.
The above was intended for last is
sue, but was crowded out.

I" | can not change one of these,
said Mr.. Bacon; will not my check i,
as We'll ?''
Quite replied the German; and
having received the $500 check, hastily
left
The following morning, Mr.. Bacor
went to his banker to pay in the notes,
and found to his surprise, that they
were all counterfeits. His next inquiry
was after his check, but that was al
ready cashed. He then telegraphed
to his Hamburg correspondent, and
learned that he was profoundly ignorant
about the whole affair. It was as
adroit fraud as was ever plotted.
The following notice appeared in the
Times of August, 1868.
con the 18th inst, f1O were paid
into the bank, for which the clerk, as
usual, gave ticket to receive bank
note of equal value. This ticket ought
to have been carried Immediately to the
cashier, instead of which, the bearer
took it away, curiously added a 0 to
the original sum, and presented it to
the cashier a note of e1OO. In the
evening, the clerks found a deficiency
in the accounts; and, on examining the
tickets of the day, not only that, but
two others were discovered to have been
obtained in the same manner. In the
one, the figure was altered to q 4, and
in another to 5, by which the artist re-
ceived near FL ,O0O."
During the hurry attendent upon a
a proclamation, made in front of the
Royal Exchange, one day last Winter
when the gorgeous costumes of the her.
aid, and the caparisons of the horses,
and the proud bearing of the garter-at
arms, and the sound of martial music,
and the reports of the Tower artillery,
and the noise of trumpets, arrested at
tention- fourteen forged notes, of ESQ
each, were presented at the Office, and
cash paid for them. OF course, there
Was no possible way of discovering from
whom they came.
These cases are outside of other
classes of forgeries to which the Bank
of England is peculiarly liable-of pow
ers of attorney. by which Fauntleroy
defrauded the bank of 936O-of checks,
of exchange bills, and of other Govern
ment debentures. Taking the amount
of paper in circulation in this country
end in England, we believe the com.
parative loss from forgeries alone to be
greater than here.
