The circular of instructions from
the comptroller general to the scvc
ral county trcasurcrs, which we
publish elsewhere, sets ut rest Il
matter which has long been source
of some discussion, and, to the state
authorities, of much embarrassment.
1t ha" long been known that there
are large number Of the bills of tho
Bank CT the State held by various
parties, II considerable portion Of
which had already been rendered in
payment OF faxes. A large number,
besides, had already been adjudgcd
not to Lave been issued ''in ail of
the rebellion" and they were thus
made II debt legally binding upon
tho state. TO attempt II levy ana
sale in cases where there had been II
tender Of such bills in payment of
taxes would have placed the state
authorities in IL position at once
doubtful and difficult. Such being
the ease, the legislature acted wisely
in passing the act under the pro
visions Of which taxpayers may now
pny their dues, both TO state and
county, in tWbills in question.

The Bank Robbery sensation.

The utter lack Of truth of the recent
sensation in regard to an alleged swim.
die upon one of our banks, was fully
shown IN an article published in TIL
HERALD q few days since. Numerous
stories having been set ailoat, howev.
er, as to the origin of the whole affair,
and some OF them, seemingly, with u
covert intention TO cast IN unmerited
reflection upon most worthy and
honorable gentleman, Mr.. Phil. Il.
Chappell, THE HERALD takes pleasure
in laying before its readers the follo.T.
ing, which may be relied upon as true
in every detail: BY letter received
from Mr.. George b. Campbell, 1t APP
pears that he received the information
as published in the Jefferson City Trib-
une from Mr.. M. A. Hardie, who in
turn received his information from q
Mr.. Price, a detective who was EN-
ployed by Mr.. Harde to work up u
robbery that had been perpetrated up.
Oh him, and which was ultimately
traced to the telegraph operator
and railroad agent at Courtney.
Deeming his information reliable
Mr.. Campbell mentioned the matter
to Captain w. III. CASTOR, Captain G..
M. Swink and Mr.. Il. III. Davenport
The last two gentlemen are connected
with the banking establishment of
which Mr.. Chapel is President, and
they repeated the story to him as it
was told to them. A few days after,
Mr.. G. left for Jefferson City, and on
reaching there related the story to n
few friends as piece of news, and as
an Illustration of the shrewdness of the
robbers, not thinking that it would be
published. On its appearance in the
papers, he paid but little attention to
the matter, deeming, of course, that it
had already been made public through
the press Of this city. Since the story
has proved canard, no one regrets
more fully the whole occurrence than
Mr.. Chappell, whatever he may lave
unwittingly done toward giving the
matter notoriety, stands honorably
eXculpated before all parties of having
knowingly attempted to injure any
one.

FORKED FLUIDS.
Dabcocks Case Called-0ne More Da,
OF Grace Merclrully Granted.


ST. LOUIS, February S.-General
l}a6cock appeared In court to-day, TO
answer the indictment charging him
with completely in whisky frauds, at
tended by Judged. r. Porter, OF New
York, Emory A, Storls, OF Chicago,
General Williams, Ex-Attorney Gen.
eral, and Chester H. Krum, OF ST,
Louis, as counsel, his father-in.!aw
United States Marshal Campbell, Of
the Northern District Of Illinois, and
his brother, &. W. Babcock, of Kansas.
The party took seats near District At
tofney ID. p. Dyer, Special Counsel
James o, Broadhead and Major Luz
cien Eaton who appear for the Gov
eminent. 1t was General Babcock's
first appearance In court since his in-
dictment The formality of plead
ing mot guilty" was gone through
with when the jurors remaining on the
old panel and especially summoned for
the case were called over, only half Of
them responding, some selected from
outside Of st. Louis county not having
had time to arrive. Mr.. Storis stated
that the counsel for the defense very
much needed another day for consulta-
ton, and that they also awaited the
arrival Of very important documentary
evidence. The counsel for the Gov
eminent made no objection to delay
and, after consideration Judge Dillon
announced that the case would go over
till tomorrow, but at p. m. the list
Of jurors would be called again that it
might be seen who We're present.
The rumor that General Babcock's
attorneys will acknowledge the auth
enticity of some of the kilograms CIV
Ing information of some of the move
ments of revenue agents, but will ex-
plain that they were innocently sent,
is pronounced canard by gentle
man who is behind the scene, for "lf
this much be admitted there Is no pos
sible salvation for Babcock before a
lairjury,"
NEw ORLEANS, February s.-Judge

A Islander Refuted.
WASHINGTON, FEBRUARY

ASlllNdIuNi FtpuuIy ~
To the Editor OF the Tribune;
"The Texas Democrats have renom-
mated Richard Coke as their candi-
date for Governor. Coke Is au out.
spoken, blatant rebel, Il man of disre-
pntable habits, and altogether unfit for
the place, except as the fitting repre-
sentative of the Lone Star Democ.
racy."
The above, clipped from the WASH
ington National Republican, is as I'M
true as it is vindlctive. 1t is as base
and false rs is all the comments made
by that organ upon all the public men
who are in opposition to the party
which it processes to represent.
This reflection on the public and pri.
vate character OF Governor Coke
would not be endorsed by the honest
men of the party in Texas, which this
sheet so ably misrepresents. The re-
Election upon the Democracy of the
Lone Star State savors much of that
vituperation which proceeds from n
soul lost to all decency or liberallty-a
being who hates the world and de-
spises himself; one whose moral con
dition would be highly benefited, and
whose respect for truth would be cult
waited by a little association with those
Texas Democrats whom he so cowardly
ISLANDERS in the above article; anu
which would have been treated with
silent contempt had 1t not assailed the
private character of man whose
purity, patriotism and honesty would
put to shame the professions of the
above. IEAAS.
We are pleased to see this writer in
the Washington City Tribune refute so
promptly this malicious Islander.

The Lecture Tonight.

DIR. J. Jay Villers, the inimitable
humorist, will deliver a lecture at
Fields Theatre this evening. Dr. Viii
lers enjoys an almost national reputa-
ton as an humorist, and everywhere he
has appeared the press have been loud
in his praises. Mr.. Johnson, the ener-
getlc lessee of the Theatre, has used
every effort to cater to the tastes and
pleasures of our play-going people, and
in his efforts to furnish us with only
first-class, legitimate entertainments,
he should receive hearty support.
The HERALD trusts that Mr.. Johnson's
efforts will be appreciated, and a full
house greet DR.. Viller's this evening.
