county jail A large inheritance does not always

THE PRESIDENT has nominated Justin Il. Col
burn, Washington correspondent Of the New York
Times, to be Consul-General Of the United States
at the City Of Mexico. Mr. Coburn is native Of
Albany, in this state, and his selection for this
important position is merited recognition of his
merits and capacity.

heavy failure has been already noticed, has left

the Merchants National Bank Of that town, and
reputed TO be one Of the most estimable citizens
in Caledonia county. short time before his de-
parure he secured aoan Of 81, 800 at the National
Bank of Danville, since which time he has been
borrowing money Of farmers and business men in
the town. The amount of his debts thus far as
certained nets $4,000. Among his creditors are
several exemplary young men, who, having CON
fidence in Weeks, entrusted to his care and ill.,
vestments all their earnings. The town is greatly
excited over the matter and steps will doubtless
be taken for his apprehension and return.

Washington County Court.

The sessions of the court were occupied during
Wednesday and Thursday with the Plainfield di-
vorce case Of Lane rs. Lane, which we noticed
last week The doors of the court were closed to
the outside throng of spectators who usually at
tend such trials. ON Thursday, at the close OF
the session, the court adjourned until Monday
morning, and the Lane case, owing, 1t Is claimed,
TO the unexpected detection Of one Of the witnesses
named Weeks from the side Of the wife TO the
side OF the husband, rendered Encouragement OF
the defense Of the former imperative. Indeed, so
unexpected was the testimony of this witness
that, instead Of being most important witness for
the wife, he proved a swift witness for the hus
band. The case comes up again this morning and
will probably continue for several days. The
number Of witnesses Is very large, and the evi-
dence Is of the most contradictory character

THE Pictorial History Of the United States,
from the discovery of the American Continent to
the present time; with complete History Of the
Centennial Exhibition BY James ID. McCabe,
author Of A Manual Of General History, THE
Great Republic - etc.-It is n we-known fact that
the great mass Of our peopleare compelled to rely,
for their knowledge Of the history Of their coun-
try upon the outline works intended for the use
of schools, which by their very nature are brief
designed for the comprehension of children, and
in every way unsuited TO the adult mind There
has long been felt genuine want of History of
the United States, covering the whole period from
the discovery Of the continent to the present day
and presenting in a suuc,nct and comprehensive
form the history of our country through its var-
Gus periods, from higher and more thoughtful
standpoint than would be proper in school his
tory. This demand, we are happy to say, is sat
isfactorily met in "The Pictorial History of the
United States" work which is evidently des-
tined to take rank as the standard history of
our country. The author, James d. McCabe,
is an able and wel-known historical writer We
most heartily commend this work to our read
1t is clear, vivid and brilliant narrative Of
the events Of our history from the discovery Of
the American continent to the present day. 1t
gives most interesting account Of the Indians of
North America, voyages Of Columbus, the expor-
ations Of the different nations Of Europe and the
wanderings of the Spaniards in search Of gold and
immortal youth. The story of the revolution is
related with all the interest of a romance then
follows clear and succnct account of the forma-
ton of the federal constitution, the second war
with England, the Mexican war and the events
Of our history up to the commencement of the
civil war The history Of the great civil war is
related with intense vgor and with strict fidelity
to truth. The book contains a complete account
Of the Centennial Exhibition. 1t is comprised in
one large and handsome volume, of over one
thousand one hundred pages, and contains more
than five hundred fine engrayings on steel and
wood. The book is issued by the National Pub
