Letter From J. P. Sprlgg Esq. , vVoodsfikld, Ohio, April 29, 1S71. f Messrs. Editors: I have been inform ed by several responsible persons that a man holding an honorable official posi tion in this Connty.has o lata been sa3' ing, both publicly and privately, "that the reason the law in relation to the sale of intoxicating liquors was not enforced was on. account of the failure of the of ficers, of the Court to do their duty, and that he intended to have an Assistant Pf)8ecuting 'Attorney appointed to at tend to that, at the next term of Court. ' Since my election to th office of Pros ecuting Attorney, there has been Seven teen Grand Juries, composed of two hundred and fifty-five men,selectcd from the townships, and supposed to be men of high moral worth. These men to gether with myself arc by this statement, indirectly (at least) charged with mor al perjury by a disregard of our sworn duties. That I have not intcrfured with or controlled the Grand Jury, I appeal to each one of them. And that I have prosecuted every indictment successfully and collected the full amount of Hue and costs I appeal to the record of the Court. . If the man uttering these falsehoods has the intelligence of a mule, he knows the statement is false; and he is a btse malicious slanderer and a wilful and de liberate falsifier. Yet, gentlemen, the man who uttered this vile and malicious slander.is always ready to mectou with a bland hypocritical smile. anil you know I have always been your friend. I would not have written this com- mnI(.;ition btlt for the a30n that the official position occupied by the man publishing the same, might induce some to believe that it was true. J. P. Spriggs.

Death of Lieutenant Mackall It is with great regret that we announce the death of this promising young officer, whii-h occurred at Santa Fc, New Mexico, on the night of the 20th of April. His father Bcnjimin Mackall, Esq.,received a telegram on Thursday afteiT.oon.annouu cing the sail event. No particulars were given, but it is surmised that the cause wa3 hemorrhage of the lungs, to which, since an accident at West Point, he was occasionally liable. On receipt of the news the family telegraphed directions to send the body home, but this was impos sible, owing to the diflkiilties of the route and other causes. Li.uit Mackall was born atBarnesville, in 1844, and graduated with honor at West Point in 18G9, having bct-n included in tho "first five," or substantially at the head of his class. At the time of his death he was Chief Engineer of the De partment of New Mexico,and would in all probability have obtained a high position in the army if his life had been spared. He was a dutiful son an affectionate brother, and an enduring friend lie was the pride and hope of his family , which in their bereavement receive the sympathies of our community. FASIIIOX ITEM.

Probably the first case to come before the United States courts in the South, under the provisions of theKu klux law, will be that of three Republican offico holders in South Carolina. Some two or three weeks ago the safe of the trcas urer of Abbeville county was broken in to and robbed of 815.000 in money ,none of which has yet been recovered. The chief constable of the State has succeed ed in tracing the crime to three brothers named GufSn, originally Northern men, hut foe soma time residents of Abbeville. O.ie of the Guffins is a member of the Legislature, another is probate judge of the county, and the third Is mayor of tho town of Abbeviilo. All three have been arrested and are now in close con finement in Columbia. The chief con stable says he has the most indubitable proof of their guilt It would bo a singular thing if the Ku klux force bill, which, as is claimed by its fraracrs, wa? intended to suppress disorder throughout the South, should, after all. do something toward accom plishing its purpose, in an indirect way, by. removing the cause of these distur bances in the persons of dishonest offi cials and scalawag adventurers. ' jt5TNegroes are hard headed in Bra zil. A South American correspondent of the Boston Advertiser wri'.es: ''The negro "totes" everything on his head, from a small paper parcel to a grand pi ano, and, on tuia 4,bcad, a lady spend ing the hot months in Tijuca ordered her piano sent out from the city, dis tance about twelve miles, supposing it would be sent by team. But on the day appointed eight negroes made their ap pearance at White's Hotel, in Tijuca, with the said piano riding aloft on their woolly heads, having brought it the en tire distance, including the mountain road of three miles heavy "up-grade," without once stopping for rest - on the way. Before setting it down these jolly negroes paraded it about the yard, with a sing song march, to show that they were not iu the least done up by their performance." .... An Arkansas Governor. A Chautauqua county correspondent reveals some particulars of the early life of Ozro A. Hadley, the new Radical Governor of Arkansas, vice Clayton: "Having committed a crime which ren dered him liable to arrest. Hadley esca ped, in 1855, from the sheriff of Chau tauqua county, and thus evading justice fled with his family to Rochester, Minu. Here he disgraced a girl, and was a sec ond time compelled to beat a hasty re treat. From Minnesota he went to Ar kansas, and np to the present he has fig ured somewhat conspicuously in that State. We now see him elected Gov ernor by some legerdemain trick in Ar kansas politics." 1 ;. - iCSTSome of the Radical papers niase the claim that President Grant, in his present swing around the circle, has gone to St. Louis merely on private bu siness. Tho more incautious New York Tribune blurts out the truth, however, in placing the telegraphic narrative of the President's movements under the head of "Political." The Tribune in this matter deals fairly. Grant may have private atlairs that need Ids atten tion in St. Louis, but, at the .same lime, he is making a political business of his jaunt. In proof of which witness Mor ton' speech at Indianapolis on tho oc casion of the President's arrival there, wherein he defended the Administration, and abused the Democratic party. jf"The New York Sun thinks that the Democratic address, slightly modi fied, would be a platform for 1872 upon which Mr.Trumbull could stand as the Democratic nominee. A great many liberal Republicans will become Demo crats if they are given half a chance. ; The New York Evening Pdstj disea sing the reign of tetror iu Scran'ton.well says : "Surely the condition of society in any, the most disturbed of the South em States, is peace and freedom as com pared with that in Northern Pennsylvania." TELE (i It API! I C TUG TRIAL OF 1.4 1 It A D. FAIR. She Is Fonnd Guilty ol Murder. San Francisco, April 26. The j ny in the case of Laura D. Fair for the murder of A. P. Crittenden' remained out forty "minutes and returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree. The prisoner appeared somewhat paler than usual when taken from the Court room, otherwise she was unmoved. It may not be improper to say now that this verdict, until within the last week, was not generally believed possible, nearly every body expecting the trial to provo a perfect farce, and ending in the acquittal of the prisoner, or the disa greement of. the jury. Nine-tenths of the community regard the verdict ns a just and proper vindication of the law, and a rebuke to the doctrines put forth by the defeuec in the case. KI KLll I I'EXXSTLVAXIA.

They obtained 8", and tying the old man, set fire to the house, lie released himself and extin guished the fire. No arrests have been mado." Locomotives Fighting for a Rail road Track. Chicago, April 25. The war at Peo ria, 111 , between the Chicago, Rock Is land, and Pacific and Peoria and Rock Island railroad companies was very ex citing last evening. Both parties dis puted the other's right to run trains, on a certain track, and the Peoria and Rock Island determined, about four o'clock, to force a passage with a train coupled to five engines. The Chicago, Rock Is land, and Pacific opposed the passage with three engines hitched together, and both parties butted against each other lor more than an hour, the Mayor refu sing to interfere, when finally the Peo ria and Rock Island cleared the track aud shot its train ahead. Dwelling-house and Two Chil dren Itu i n cd. .Cleveland, April 25. A Cleveland Herald special, from Conncaut, Ohio, says: "This morning the dwelling-house of B. C. Foster.at the depot, was bmncd. Foster and his wife barely escaped. Two children perished in the flames. Jennie, aged four years, was burned to a cinder; and Lloyd, aged twelve years, leaped from an upper window, and was so bad ly burned that he died in a few hours." Reverend Radical dieted. Officer In- Cixcixnati, April 25. The Rev. M. P. Gaddis has been again indicted by the United States grand jury for neg lect of duty while assessor of the inter nal revenue of the Second District, for receiving presents and bribes, and for offering a bribe to his assistant to induce him to allow Gaddis to commit frauds in office. Tne Sudden End of Two Texns Desperadoes A Dylug Man Hills Ills Assailant. From the Jefferson, Texas, Radical, April 8. One of tho most remarkable personal rencontcrs ever recorded in the annals of this city occurred on Tuesday last, resulting in the instant death of the no torious William E. Rose and of the equally notorious Jesse Robinson Rose shot Robinson fatally through the body and then ran. The dead man (as it were) pursued, without heeding the icy hand of death upon his vitals, or the dread eternity upon whose very brink he reeled ,nnd with his last agonies of exertion emptied his revolver at his enemy, inflicting wounds which proved instantly tatal after which he himself al most instantly expired. Sinco this event, this community breathes freer, as many citizens of Jeff erson were constantly apprehensive of violence from one or the oAer of these men. Several suits brought against them in the name of the State of Texas will abate on account of their death. Several of these indictments were for assault with intent to commit murder. It is a curious coincidence that Rose and Robinson were both convicted of murder by Military Commissioners and sentenced to death. The findings in the case of Robinson were disapproved by General Reynolds and he was set at lib erty. The finding in tne case of Rose were either not acted on by General Reynolds, or else President Grant dodg ed the responsibility of orderiug the ex ecution of the sentence. , Couldn't Learn. Millard Fillmore and Horatio Sey inour tried to learn to play poker and various other games, in order to take a hand in with the famous old set I have been describing, but they both failed. Seymour took lessons regularly in Old sledge from an expert, but could never master the game. He was equally un successful in his efforts to learn to drink liquor. He never could swallow a phlegm-cutter without choking. He sometimes affected to toss a cock tail like a regular, but he always made a wry face after it, and his eyes involuntarily paid the cugulfed liquor the manly trib ute of a tear, as he felt the cocktail get ting home on his inards ami making a turmoil in his cistern. Fillmore was even duller than Sej mour. lie couldn't learn the names of the cards. In try ing a case once in the Superior Court in Buffalo, his opponent, John Talcott, called him the right bower of his client's case. At tins filunore, who thought Talcott was calling him opprobious names, arose and said: "May it please the Court, my learned friend calls mo a right bower!' I should like to have him explain what he means" "Very well, your I nor," responded Talcott, "J will giali.j my learned friend's curi osity. A right bower is the greatest knave in the" pack." That settled Fill more The audience cheered, the jury gave Talcott a verdict, and Fillmore went home aud redoubled his exertions to learn the mysteries of euchre, with his characteristic ill success. Albany Letter. Paper Wheels. Paper is used for car wheels now. On the Chicago and North western Railroad the Pullman Car Company have wheels with steel tires and cast-iron hubs, into which paper is introduced in tho way of filling under the tires for the purpose of deadening the sound and diminishing tho force of concision. These paper wheels, as the)' are called, have been running regularly 6ince July last, and are siHH in good order. Prom the Washing-ton City Patriot, 22d ult, INTIMIDATION. How Marine and Savr-vard Workmen W-rc Prevented from Voting their Sentiments. One of the means employed by the Administration to carry; the election for the Radical party on Thursday: .was"1 to stop the liberty of the United States Marines, at the Marine barracks,-be cause, after a canvass, it was ascertain cd that, out of fifty of them who wc rj registered, forty would, if allowed to vote at all, cast their ItaL'ots for Mr. Merrick. After the polls were" closed, at seven o'clock, sundry squads of these men were permitted to come outside and stroll through the city, to convey the impression to the public that they had been out of the barracks all day. Another dodge was the dismissal on Tuesday and Wednesday of a number of the best workmen in tho Navy Yard who were known to favor Merrick, in order to intimidate other mechanics I here who were understood to favor Merrick's election. One of the best mechanics in the yard being thus sum marily dismissed, when there was abun dance of work for him, took tiie liberty of" inquiring why he was dismissed, and received the following reply : "Never mind about that. If you want to know why yon are discharged, ask the Secre tary of the Navy. He knows why !". Tho Legal Tender Act. Washington, April 25. The Tribune's correspondent telegraphs from here the following important intelligence: The decision of the Supreme Court on the cases involving the constitutionality of the legal tender act of .1862, concern ing which there has been so much inter est, will be made known in open court on Monday next, in presence of a full bench. The opinions, however for there will be two will not be delivered until the meeting of the court at the next term, iu order that the judges may have time to perfect them. On account of the magnitude of the cases, involv ing such important consequences, it is thought this decision will be final, as the court will probably hereafter refuse to consider the points involved, inasmuch as a full bench will now participate iu the judgment. The court will decide not only as to the liability of the con tracts made before the passage of this aot, but of those made since. It is pos itively ascertained that it will reverse the decision of the court in previous cases by deciding that the legal lendi r act is constitutional, and that contracts made before the-war may bo fulfilled by payment of greenbacks. In this decis ion the court will stand as follows : For atlirming the constitutionality of the act Justices Miller, Davis, Swaync, Brad ley and Strong. Against Chief Jus tice Chase, Justices Nelson, Clifford and Field. As to the constitutionality of the act.as applicable to contracts made since its passage, there is some doubt as to how the court will stand, although it is certain the legality of the act will be affirmed as in other cases, and perhaps by a large number of judges. The court on Monday will amiour.ee, several other cases, and will then end the term by an adjournment till December. An Apology as Is an Apology, The following "apology" is published i;i a Topcka, Kansas, paper : "Ax Apologt. Some time last win ter Dr. S. E. Sheldon ordered me to make him a fine shinglc-breisted frock coat.to be worth 845. I made the coat, and it was a perfect fit ; but he left it on my hands,. because he wauted a 'swallow-tail' instead, whereby I suffered a loss of 820. This spr.ng he ordered of me a. business Suit, and endeavored to again leave a coat on my hands. I told him to leave, mo the whole suit or pay inc for it. He refused, and I kicked him out of m3 shop at eight o'clock on the morning of March 27, 1871. He has since, however, paid me, and requested an apology, which I now make, and state that had he paid me for my work as requested, I would not have kicked him out of my shop as above mention ed. J. V. Hart." S!f!"X eorresnondent of the New York Herald has had an interview with Governor Wilraot, of tho British Pos sessions of New Brunswick. Among other things which he eaid the following is noticeable: "I tell vou arain. if ever there was a growing feeling of annexation in the British Provinces, such unstatesnianlike politicians as General Grant and Gener al Butler have delayed it a quarter of a century, 'if, intact, tney Have not de stroyed it altogether and forever. We will let them know that we can stand on our own bottom.
