The prevailing impression that Gen.
eral Grant is sustained at this stage of his
disease by hypodermic injections is de.
MED. Last Thursday evening, when he
seemed to be dying, his physician gave
him q hypodermic of brandy and under
its administration he revived. This is
all that has been used. DR.. Shardy says
the cancer is not yet sufficiently devel.
oped to cause death to patient of ordi.
nary strength. But the generals con.
stitution is shattered by physical and
mental shocks and he is in no condition
to Withstand the ravages of the disease
The doctor says if Grant possessed or
dinary health he would yet live 81,
months. Because of his weakened cou
dition his physicians look upon the rally
of last week as marvellous. They ex.
peoted death several days ago.

Tho Grow Creek and Winnebago res.
ervation case is receiving attention at
Washington. Saturday the president
had conference with the secretary of
the interior relative to matters in con.
nection with the reservation at which
no conclusion was reached and another
conference will be held. An official of
the interior department takes this view
of the case:
1.-THE president opened the lands to
the settlement and the people sold out
their possessions, went into the reserve.
tion and located homesteads. The at
torney general says the president's order
is invalid, and it becomes the duty OF
the interior department to eject the set
tiers. We may congratulate ourselves if
the attempt to do 80 does not result IN
bloodshed."
The authorities are evidently under q
misapprehension Of the facts. Territori.
al Secretary Teller and Governor Ed.
munds, of the Indian commission, are
both positive that the Indians have no
claim to the reservation. This conclu-
sion is not based upon q superficial view
of the case. They have given 1t close
study. Secretary Teller has made per.
sonal examination of sll the documents

The Good Old Days"

81 guess these farmers who are groan-
ing about low prices and high taxes,
and who are longing for the good old
times, don't remember much about
the good old times, ;" said well-known
Orange county farmer of Goshen. n. Y.
II can remember when we used to
haul our grain, butter. pork, and eggs
all the way to Newburgh, going one
day and coming back the next. We
generally got Is cents n bushel for oats,
and 10 cents pound for butter. Sew
enty-iiyc cents bushela for wheat was
a fancy price. If we got 6 or s cents
a dozen for eggs we thought we were
doing well. Nice corn-fed pork, dress
ed, we carted to market for 80 hun
dred. The butter we put on the mar
ket in those days Was the genuine Or
ange county article, yellow as gold and
as hard as walnut. l have sold tub
full after tubfull of butter for 10 cents a
pound that would net me IS cents easy,
if had it. or any like it, to sell now.
That was before the Erie railway came
through here and put us up to selling
our milk instead of making it into but
ter. We didn't have any lime-kept
eggs to sell in those days, either. As
for taxes | paid 800 for my farm of
one hundred acres when | was getting
10 cents pound for butter. On the
same farm now pay S42.50 and lhave
sold my entire dairy of milk for what is
equal to more than three times 10 cents
a pound for butter. There is good
deal of humbup in this mourninp after
the good old days, and / know it. y

Expert Counterfeiting.

u. S. Detective w. G. Bauer, who
secured the arrest and conviction of the
celebrated counterfeiter Martin Ogle,
recently explained to reporter of the
Louisville Post the processes of this
accomplished felon which certainly dis
play wonderful amount of ingenuity
and delicate workmanship.
Ogle had procured genuine $40 bill
and split this in halves. this being in
itself remarkable operation. The two
sheets thus made were so thin that they
were transparent. He made plate of
copper and brass, little larger than
the bill, and spread one of the sheets
on top of it. With steel tracing PEN
ell of his own manufacture he engraved
through the sheet its exact counterpart
on the plate. The other half was en-
graved on different plate in similar
manner. and then he was ready for
printing his spurious money. This
method of workmanship looks very
simple, but it is the first time it has
been done by a counterfeiter. as it is
almost impossible to split the bill.
The method always before used is as
follows: The workman took, say, a
so bill, and spread over it piece of
transparent gelatine paper, and traced
the figures of the former on the latter.
The metal plate was next put in use.
and was coated with a solution of
shellac. On this the gelatine was past
ed, and when torn off it left on the
shellac the outline of its figures. BY
following these in the solution they
were also traced in delicate lines on the
plate. The shellac then being washed
off the latter they could be cut to the
right depth, and the counterfeiter was
ready for his work. Ogle's method
obviated these three or four methods
and rendered the engraving on the
plate far more accurate, as the correct
ness of the lines was necessarily lost
through so many transfers. This man
thus accomplished piece of work
alone and unaided, with tools of his
own manufacture, when the National
Government paid over 100000 for a
steam machine to do the same thing.
Detective Bauer showed Ogle's TOOLS
which were fitted to rough wooden
handles, but possessed points as sharp
as steel. He also displayed the genuine
bill split in two sheets, and perfectly
transparent He had on a table several
packages of bills of Ogle's manufacture,
amounting in all to $4,000, in tens
and twenties. They were all on the
Third National Bank of Cincinnati, but
the new plates were intended for the
Queen City Bank.
'Ogle." said Detective Bauer, '.is the
first man who has issued any spurious
money during the last six years, and
he has shown an almost uneXampled
skill and astuteness. His brother. who
has been returned to the Pennsylvania
Penitentiary. knew nothing about this
workmanship. but was merely kind
of head servant 10 Martin. The latter
did all his work on tiatboat, and seat
tered the money chiefly at river points.
He turned over to me in all $3.50, 900 of
about the best counterfeiting l ever
saw"

said, ..is favored by 4 great number of
lawyers. There are some old fellows,
to be sure, who are opposed to it.
What they want is large library.
They seem to think that Il civil code is
an alteration of existing things. BY no
means; it is a condensation, and is cal
culated to save much labor and re-
search. These old lawyers have learned

A Tale Of Two Dogs.

A friend of the Record has very
original dog. He came to the family a
little, scrawny. NANCY, timid yaller
doc. He is now a large, fat. well con-
ditioned. consequential yaller dog.
There is beer shop about two blocks
from the residence which this dog
adopted for his own. and Buff goes
there occasionally and drinks the drip
pings that fall from the faucet of the
beer keg into 4 tub kept for the pur-
pose. Sometimes he drinks so much
of this fascinating liquid that he be-
comes very drunk and goes home in a
sad state. When, at dinner time, a
long. deep, stcnterous grunt is heard
from underneath the table at the back
of the room and visitor gives look
of surprise the explanation is, "Oh,
Buff is drunk again.
Next door lives handsome setter
named Captain. Buff had always
whipped him in their chance hostile
encounters until Captain learned to
give him a wide berth. But one day
Captain happened TO see Buff going
home from the beer shop in a shocking
state of inebriety. He knew that the
moment for his revenge had come. and
rushed upon the incapable Buff like a
wolf on lamb. Buff made an exceed
ingly unsteady and inadequate defense.
The tyrant of the neighborhood was as
effeotually disarmed as Sullivan was
disarmed before Mitchell. He went
home dreadfully whipped. and with
such sense OF humiliation that he has
quite let off going to the beer shop
until the next tine-and has not since
molested Captain.
The best thing about this story is
that it is absolutely true. - Boston Ecen-
