The Bulletin says: She pointed to the simplicity of the beginnings of modern spiritualism and the progress it had made in less than half century, and exhorted her hearers to keep in mind the humble things of the faith and not to depart from them. The singing by the quartette choir under the direction of Mrs. Kate Taber Messenger was q marked feature of the ex- ercises. Miss Beebe, the soprano, and Mir. Guy Aver, the basso, rendered solos to the acceptance of the audience The tests of MT. Wiggins proved very satisfactory to the people, and the result of his first visit to Norwich will probably be his future re- call to serve the society in the same capac- ity.

Counterfeit $2 Silver Certificates Which Are Hard to Detect.
 A Washington dispatch says the treasury
 department has discovered counterfeit S2
 silver certificate, so nearly perfect as to be
 almost impossible of detection. The paper
 used by the government is for the first time almost perfectly initiated. The note counterfeited is the series of 1886, which
 was designed under the supervision of Treasurer Jordan, and has on it vignette of General Hancock. It is estimated that there are now nearly 10000, ,O00 of these notes in circulation, and there was secret conference at the treasury department Sat
 urday afternoon to devise some way to re- tire the issue and substitute a new one
 without serious embarrassment before any considerable quantity of the counterfeit notes get into circulation.
 It was practically decided to suspend the printing of the $2 silver certificate and to institute a new series of the same denomi- nation. This will contain vignette of Secretary Windom. It will take about
 two months to get the plates engraved. The government is trying to discover tho plates used in making the counterfeits

WANTS THE GREAT SEAL.
Governor Davis Very Particular , About Regulation Papers.

Governor Davis Very Particular
 , About Regulation Papers.
 HARTFORD, March 30.-Governor Davis of Rhode Island shows desire to hedge himself about with the technicaities of most precise formality when he touches the Connecticut gubernatorial muddle. Officer Sibley of Brooklyn, in this state, who went to Providence last week with requisition papers for the recovery of Thomas Garnett, who is wanted in Brook lyn for breaking jail, returned Saturday with his papels, but without his man.
 The endorsement of Attorney General Slocum on the papers reads as follows: Eff you are satisfied that Morgan G. Bulkeley is the lawful governor of Connecticut, the papers seem to be satisfactory" The officer stated, however, that Governor Davis was not satisfied with the seal on these papers. It was the regular seal of the executive de- pertinent, which it has been customary hitherto to use, and which is used in other states. Governor Davis, however, insisted in having the great seal of the state on these papers and Governor Davis will be satisfied on this point when Officer Sibley | returned to Rhode Island to-day. For the | papers were taken to the secretary of states office, and shortly there was added | to all the rest of the 'blue ribbon" techni- l calities of such instruments the great seal of the state of Connecticut. Then Secre- tary Walsh signed his name under it to show it's genuineness and the officer took the papers again. It is expected that the acquisition will now be granted.
 The Albany Law Journal has at last of fered an opinion on Governor Hills re-
 fusal to honor Governor Bulkeley's papers
 It calls the formers action "unjustifable
 and anarchical" It has looked up his law
 references and says they do not apply al
 all to the case in hand.
 Governor Bulkeley, it says, Lawfully
 holds over and is governor de jure-no1
 de facto-or else Connecticut has no gov
 ernor. If Governor Hill had chosen te
 recognize Governor Bulkeley's acquisition
 no harm would have been done, and probably no one, at least no reasonable person, even of his own party, would have objected. But he has chosen tc | erect himself into a canvassing board fol | Connecticut and to denounce Bulkeley as usurper. Whatever he is, he is not that If any one is to blame it is not he, but
 the legislature. He has not thrust himsel into the office, but is simply holding on te his former office as ordered by the consti 1 tutiOn"

A COMING EVENT.

Connecticut Christian Endeavor Ex-
 cursfon to Minneapolis i'm July.
 Many in this city will be interested in
 the following:
 The great national convention of the
 societies of Christian Endeavor will be
 held in Minneapolis this year, Jnly 9-12
 and arrangements are being made for what will doubtless be the most attrac- necticut. The main trip will probably in clude Niagara Falls and the cities of Chi cago, St. Paul and Minneapolis. Side ex-
 cursions at greatly reduced rates will also be offered to Yellowstone park, Denver, Duluth, Lake Superior and the t'Soo," the St. Lawrence river with the Thousand islands and the Lachi- na rapids, Lake Champlain and Lake George, Chautauqua, Watins Glen, Sara toga, the Hudson river and the Catskills. The convention itself will be addressd by the best talent in the country and the rail road and hotel rates will probably be so low as to bring the total expense of the
 main excursion within fifty or ffty-fve dollars for the round trip from Hartford or New Haven. A few dollars more will take in one or more of the above side excursions; and where can one spend his or ueT SuuuueT Fdcdtlou WILL ulOre DrOuU ana delight?

BY HIS OWN HAND.

General Johnson, a Veteran of the
 Mexican and Civil Wars, Commits
 Suicide at Ills Home on Howe
 Street.
 A sad case of suicide occurred on Howe street yesterday morning The person tc take his life was General Charles Adams Johnson, who for the past five years has re- sided with his wife at No. 76 Howe street. The deed was done most probably in fit of temporary insanity. For some time past the general has been ailing with an cru D. tive disease, for which he has been treated by Dr. Paul Skiff. Nothing serious, how ever, was anticipated. He had planned to make trip to New York yesterday, but that was given up by him soon after break fast and drive about the city in the af- ternoon was substituted. He complained of not feeling well and ate very little breakfast. Only few minutes lat CT, without word, he walked in- to his room, and then came the report of pistol shot. Mrs. Johnson i'm mediately rushed to the room and there found the general sitting in an easy chair with a smoking fl calibre bull dog pistol in his hand and bullet wound in his left breast. Death resulted in about an hour. Drs. Townsend and Judson were inn mediately sent for, but medical help could be of no avail.
 Medical Examiner White was then sum- moned and found the cause of death to be internal hemorrhage.
 He never recovered consciousness from the time he shot himself.
 Mrs. Johnson and her neighbers are satisfied that there was not the slightest reconciliation of General Johnson to shoot himself. ....
 The deceased was an officer in the Mexi- can war and also served in the war of the rebellion. He was 8 student at Yale col lege at the time of the Mexican war, and left the college to take part in it. After the civil war he took up the practice of law and up to about five years ago resided at Utica, N. Y. He moved from that city to New Haven. He was member of the Loyal Legion. -- ; s..a as'-
 He was descendant of John Quincy, and was connected with prominent New York family of Johnsons.
 When the war of the rebellion broke out he went to the front, and before it's close he was brevetted brigadier-general for bravery on the battle field. He was in the army of the Potomac and at another time in the civil war was assigned to a command in the western department.
 He has one brother in South Carolina and two nephews in New York city, who were informed by telegraph of the sad oc- currence. He was sixty-fve years of age

The Market Generally Dull-Spells of Animation Accompanied by Up. ward Movements-The Close Ac- tive

tive.
 NEW YoRK. March 30.
 Railroad bonds were somewhat active today. The sales reached Sl,075,OOO, which was very evenly distributed among a large number of is sues, though Louisville, New Albany and Chca- go consols were most prominent and scored a material advance all of which, however, was not retained. The market was strong and in close sympathy with the trading shares, but the final changes are generally slight fractions, ex- cept in the inactive issues.
 There was @ notable absence of stocks seeking market this morning and this of itself initiated against an active market, but the buying was undoubtedly good and the spells of animation to which the market was subjected during the day were invariably accompanied by an upward movement in prices. The grangers were still the most prominent group of stocks, and, not withstanding the decrease in the gross earnings of Burlington, reported that stock and Rock Island were conspicuously strong, as were also Northern Pacific, preferred, and the leading in dustrials There were few movements of import ance among the specialties, but Manhattan made some wide fluctuations and closed higher The general list, after firm opening was dull, but followed the lead of the active shares and ad- vanced steadily though slowly from opening to close. The upward movement met with no real setback throughout the day, and .he East prices are generally the highest. Among the industri- als Sugar was most active and scored marked advance, but in the general list all the important movements were in the leading active stocks The close was fairly active and stronger at the highest prices of the day.
