Rare REVOLUTIONARY RELICS.
An Old Pair of Scissors and q Coin Found al
Newburg.

NEwBURG, n. Y, July 18.-While ex-
cavating on farm near Temple Hill few
days since L. L. Frost found pair Of shears
that were of sufficiently antique design to
warrant the opinion that they were used
during the encampment of 1888 by revolu-
tionary soldiers.
William I. Talmage, Assistant Superin-
tendent at Washington's headquarters,
while cutting out a carriage drive to the
Tower of Victory Monday, unearthed the
copper coin of George Ills rein, bearing
date 1747, which was three years before the
headquarters property was sold to the
Hasbroucks, from which family the State
purchased it. The coin is in an excellent
state of preservation. Both discoveries
will be added to the antiquities at head
quarters.
