SAMUEL NJ. HARRINGTON, ESQ, de-
ceased, was one of the few members of
the Bar who took deep interest in local
affairs; laboring in the church as a mem
ber in high standing, and in the Sunday
schools to promote the most refined and
purest religious sentiments. His loss in
this field of operations will be deeply
felt. His ability at the Bar was admitted,
and the brief remarks paid to him by so
many of his fellow members at the meet
ing yesterday, were not in the least too
eulogistic. He adorned the profession
in which, for his age, he had no superior
in Delaware he adorned the church and
he adorned society. He was opposed to
us in politics but we always found him
liberal, kind and pleasant He made all
of his acquaintance feel that he was A
friend and thus it is his loss is deplored
by all with whom lie associated or who
knew his amiability and fine persona
qualities.

as it was before the rebellion. If thn
use of greenbacks instead of u. S. bank
notes will help to pay the debts of the
government we are In favor of that policy.
1t seems to us the change which is re-
commended in the Ohio Democratic
platform will save the people about nine
or ten millions of dollars year perhaps
twelve millions, and thus extinguish to
certain extent large part of the debt
which the speculators and traders ina
money have fastened upon the people.
This national debt must he maid or i,

retrenchins every national expense and
curtailing all salaries to the amount maid

the payment of the debt. If the bond

course and elect bank directors TO Con
gress to continue the present extravaeant
appropriations, or send lobbyists there to
pny up the votes of members, by making
presents to members, wives, daughters.
SONS and friends, why we shall expect to
see party raised up to repudate the
debt in the easiest shape that this can be
done whether by the irredeemable green
backs or the non-payMent of the interest

WHILE the farmers and PLAIN people
high tariff, and the sale of grain and farm
produce to Europe diminished while il
rotted on our hands the rich manu-
faclurers and bondholders have been
clothing themselves at low European
prices by smuggling goods by the trunk
full to their homes on their return trips
and this thing has been winked at in
Washington, as appears from the follow
ing article cut from Republican paper
These are the tim's when the festive
foreign tourists think to cheat Uncle sam
by bringing home carloads of articles (, 1
virtue and bigoiry free of duty. A pas
senger by the Scythla, which arrived in
New York on Tuesday, called on collec-
tor Merritt and complained that the Gus
tom House inspectors asked S240 duty
from him before they would pass his
trunks. The passenger acknow ledged
that all the goods were dutiable and that
OF the wearing apparel had been worn.-
he said he had been to Europe before
and had never experienced such treat
ment. He had always interpreted the
law to mean that man conld bring over
trunks. The Collector said he was aware
that the law had net b, en- strictly enfor-
ced, but that recent order received from
Washington compelled the Custom Hou. o
ofhclak to make lilid examinations
Other reports OF the work of inspectors
attending on the arrival Of the Scytbia
detail the ontiscations of numerous
handsome silk dresses built by the great
man-mllllner Worth, and valued at 5000
and 500 each, upon the attempted SNUG
cling of those goods free of duty. The
amount of which the Government has
been swindled in this way cannot be-
computed, and this is the time, whe the
steamers are returning loaded with hol-
day passengers, to make a reform. 1t is
said that as far as the returns have been
received in the New York Collectors
department that the receipts for duties

OF September, or since the enforcement
OF the recent older Will exceed any in the
the history of the Custom House.

. A CONNECTS STRANGE STORY.

Charles Gilbert, u Convicted Murderer, De-
ctdres That HIS Father and another Man
Committed the Deed for Witch He Ia.
Been Imprisoned Thirteen Years.
Hartford Special to New York Times.
The Hartford Times to night publishes
sensational statement by Charles Gilbert, a
life prisoner in the State prison. who was
sentenced in 1865 for the murder of Henry
Caldwell, of New Britain, in which he alleges
that he is entirely innocent of the crime, and
that the murder was committed by his father
and Charles Parsons, both of whom were
arrested at the time of his own arrest, but
were not indicted. Both tho elder Gilbert
and Parsons are dead, and it is claimed by
Gilbert that his father having recently
died, he feels free to tell the story
as his father told it to him, and
as he repeated it to his counsel when
he was convicted. Gilbert has once escaped
from State prison, and was caught in West
ern New York. Later on he was Judged to
be insane, and was sent to the State hospital
at Middletown, but was not subject for that
lnstltut on, and was taken back to prison.
Gilbert says he kept the secret to save his
father, though, unfortunately, when the old
SoACloNan oAou no Glu uoG seem disposed to
unload his mind and help the son out of the
scrape. The statement is considered safe
one to make, now that all the witnesses of
the tragedy are dead. The next step proba-
bly, will be to petition the legislature for Gill
bert's release, on the strength of his declare
ton. His admission that he told his lawyer
all about the real criminals thirteen years
ago, shows that an attorney can keep a secret
even to allowing his innocent client to suf-
fer. The attorney in this case was S. f.
Jones, who defended Rey. Mr.. Hayden, at

ding Brass Kettles

One Of the chief cries of Washburn and
his gang has been that he is lot q member
os the Mllers' Association. The GLOBE has
impaled this lie very frequently. He is rep
resented by his partners in tho association,
each mill having but enc member. Wash
burn not only enjoys the stealings, but is a
leading spirit in the management of the AS
ISOLATION. At Anoka he owns mill ex-
clusiyely and his swirdles there
are perfectly appalling. His agent
TIE MilIers' Association every day and ships
car after car addressed to W. D. Washburn
& Co., Minneapolis. That is the way he is
rot member of the ring.
The swindling brass kettles which have
been in nss fer years have been changed at
certain points in the district where it was
deemed best to make q show of decency, and
& new swind!is,S kettle put in their place.
The only real difference is that to manipulate
the lead in tie cube on the old kettle you had
to remove the screw, and Oh tho new one two
screws have to be taken out. The claim
that the brass kettles weigh accurately IS not
tho point at issue. Ii is that the buyer can
manipulate them and steal grade from the
farmer at will. If Washburn was not in the
ring docs any ono suppose he could have Sc
cured even Il t. mpo;ary change in the swim
ding brass kettles in order to make political
capital.
