Senator Colking, in recent speech, quot
ed extensively from Southern school book
entitled, New School History OF the United
States" written by J. s. Blackburn, princi-
pal of the Potomac Academy, Alexandria,
Va, and W. ". Mcdonald, principal of the
male high school, Louisville, KY, and pub
lished by ". j. C. Delany & Co., Baltimore.
The passages showed reckless perversion
of the truth OF history for the purpose of
clarifying the South and deprecisting the
North This book and similar ones are ex-
tensiveiy used at the South and cores
pondent of the Syracuse Journal tells how
they originated and what purpose they are
designed 10 effect. He says that in 1868
seditious conclave. headed by JEFF Davis, Or
ganzed at White Sulphur Springs, Va,
what was called the Southern Historical So
ciety. !, has since TRANSFERRED that the OBJ
ject of this gathering was to fix plans for the
subverson Of the laws and to forestall and
direct the opinions Of the rising generation,
les, the South become ''conciiated." To
this end school books, lcavcned with false
hood and hatred for the North, were to be
issued. and schools all over the ex-Confed-
eracy were to be required 10 use them.
From some of the statements of the school
history referred to, general idea may be
formed Of how the youth of the South are
educated One section of the book is as fol
lows
Section 2 Abraham Lincoln, . sectional candi-
date, was elected He the nominee CT the
Republicans, who had openly declared their hog
tility to slavery, and large portion OF the South
ern people regarded his election under the circum-
stances a virtual commencement of hostilities.
Tney asserted that they had been prevented by
mob violence from enjoying their constitutional
rights by the North the spirit OF abolitlonIsm
would now, under the coupt0nance and by means
Of Federal power. assume the aggressive, and that
time for them To abandon government
which mad fallen into the hands of their avowed
enemies. Ii was further said that the right OF
secession anecessary part Of thai sovereignty
the recognition of which had been extorted from
Engand 10y force and which had never been for
moment surrendered TO the Federal Government.
The history speaks of the ''departuIz
that is Of the Senators and representatives at
the opening Of the war-'from Congress"
as Indeed an occasion Of solemn leavc-tak-
ing some in bidding farewell hurled derilnce
at their political enemies who lad driven
them to the last resort of honor !" and says,
''and that to admit the jurisdiction of the
United States within their domain would be
to acknowledge a foreign authority on their
soil. President Lincoln had forced sword
into the hands of Virginia. and it was her
duty TO draw it in defence of State rights"
Referring to the assassination of Col. Els
worth in Alexandria at the opening Of the
war, this Southern volume speaks Of that
gallant officer ''as famous rough and circus
rider Of Chicago" and describes al some
length how properly he was murdered

CROOKEDNESS.

A Notorious Counterfeiter Arrested
and $4,000 in Bonds Found on His
Person.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22-The man arrested
in Chicago yesterday with a large amount of
money was James B. Doyle, son-in-law of the
noted counterfelter, Brad Foster. He is a
farmer of Colorado and reported to be very
wealthy,
The Secret Service have information that
Doyle has been engaged in crooked" trans
actions ever since the war. The arrest as
caused on charge of a government defalca-
tion, but the facts developed since the arrest
show that such is not the case, According to
advices received, Doyle has on his person 1000
U. S. coupon bonds, SKIES of the loan of July
18th aud August 5, 1861. The bonds showing
number of coupons were issued in the follow

genuine hundred dollar United States treasury
notes and Two hundred dollar currency notes.
These bonds have been generally pronounced
genuine by experts. The prisoner is very
reticent and maintains that there is mistake
about his arrest. When asked how many
bonds he had he replied that he did not know.
The aggregate amount of bonds and money
found on him are estimated at $210, 900.
Many of the bonds he holds have long since
been redeemed. The numbers have also been
altered. Chief Brooks has been engaged in
the case since Tuesday last.
Doyle left New York last Tuesday. The Sc

Chief Brooks of Doyle's departure. He was

BUSINESS MEN AROUSED.

Strong Movement on the Kennebec in
Favor of Maintaining the Tariff.
Especial Dispatch to the Press.l
GARDINER, Oct. 22.-There is strong move
ment on foot here in favor of maintaining the
protective tariff. The following paper is re-
ceiving the signatures of business men this
afternoon:
BUSINESS MEMS MEETING-GARDINER AND
VICINITY.
The farmers, merchants manufacturers and
mechanics of Gardiner and vicinity are request
ed to meet together and confer upon the crisis
impending over the country in regard to pro-
tectiye tariff. After years of depression the
country is rapidly resaining prosperity, and
any change of financial or tariff policy will in
volve most serious and alarming consequences
to every citizen. The result of the pending
Presidential election will decide whether we
are to maintain protective tariff with all its
benefits and blessings, or whether we are to
enter upon a career of free trade and low
wag@s for the benefit of British manufacturers.
Every man engaged in business, farmer, mer-
chant manufacturer, mechanic and day labor
er alike, is interested in maintaining a protec-
tive tariff.
The undersigned unite in calling public
meeting of the friends of the protective policy
TO be held at - on -, to confer in re-
gard to the duties of the hour.
