GenernI Ruckner on GRAND.

New York, April 27.-At the Grant
dinner this evening, General Buckner, in
a speech, said he would not be true to the
Southern people if he did not say: I'VE
love the memory of General Grant" and
he continued, ut is fortunate for the
country, and fortunate for the South par
ticularly, that we did not succeed in the
late contest. General Buckner testified
to his strong friendship for General Grant,
to whom he surrendered at Appomattox.
He SAID: That night | shall never for.
get; out of hearing of his soldiers, Grant
took me aside and rendered me the use
of his purse. In the modesty of bis ma
tare he desired to hide the act in the
dark. On his death bed his character
manifested itself above his sufferings, and
he could not speak, but wrote me that he
would die happy if he could know that
there was complete unity of the country.

Bishop HeaIey's Contribution to His
tory.

PORTLAND, April 27.-Bishop Healey
OF Portland, in an address to the Catho-
lies of Maine on the occasion of the CEN
tennial of Washington's Inauguration,
says it is a fable to attribute the estab-
lishment of freedom of conscience to the
Puritans, Cavaliers of Virginia, or Qua
kers. In Maryland, so long as Catholics
had control of the government, that was
the sole colony where freedom of con
science and liberty of religion existed.
Let us not be discouraged by the abuse of
p%reiudiced men. We have nothing to
conceal; we have no conspiracy. We
canno be members of oath bound secret
societies. While respecting the rights,
duties, opinions, and even reasonable pre-
JUDGES OF our brethren in citizenship, we
claim the same consideration for our
selves, avowing without shame of con
cealment that our freedom of conscience,
our attachment to God and our religion,
is our first privilege and highest duty.
The bishop asks Catholics to include the
Commonwealth in their prayers April 30.

that she slept all night and with one bot.

Discovery OF Gigantic Forgeries.

New BRITAIN, Conn.,, April 27.-Chas.
E. Woodruff, formerly secretary of the
Young Mems Republican club and city
clerk, has confessed he uttered forged
papers to the extent OF $40. 900. His
victims are the banks. Woodruff has
practiced forgery six years, according to
his own confession, during which time he
has forged notes to the extent of $500, 900.
Of this mount he managed, without
being discovered, to make good all but
the sum above mentioned. Nearly all of
the forgerles were in the shape of endorse
ments on Woodruff notes. As fast as
one note became due he issued another
and forged the endorsement to take it up.
In October, 1887, he had out over $780,
600 in forged notes. From that time
until the present he uttered, according to
his own admission, nearly S4OO, 900 worth
OF bogus notes and checks.

Bates explained that since the publication
of official dispatches in the white book,
which showed the attitude of the German
government, his article in the Century

America owed much. Nothing was fur
Their from his thoughts than to wound
