Imitation ever I.ssnetl. At llrst glance it appears to
be a perfect imitation, and the printing seems to
fcave been done from the original plates. The 'or

good test for detection, is here equal to the engrav

be careful in receiving notes of tills denomination,
ami give them the following tests, which may be
considered infallible guides:

There is no haze in the genuine note. This is a

that. In the oricinal notes, within the light circle
running nntler the figures 10, there are three and a

FIREWORKS.
De"hf Me of Hi" Victim by the New York
Kxplonlan.
fVom the X. Y. World of t hi morning.
lie Ind Thomas Kelly, who was no terribly
burned by the disastrous explosion of fireworks
on Wcdncfday evening, died at the New York
Hospital nt naif-past two o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Tho little fellow iuffcred the most
frightful agonies until a short time before his
death, but displayed Spartan-like courage.
After bis wounds had been dressed on Wed
nesday cvenlng,bis prospects of recovery seemed
much grcnter thnn those of his companion and
fellow-sufferer, Mulcahey, tho latter having ap-
Earcntly received much more serious hurts. On
is own account Kellcy seemed to have no
anxiety whatever. "Do you think I shall be all
right bv Sunday, doctor ?" he asked. Receiving
a kindlr, evasive answer, tho little fellow
said: "1 hope I shall be able to go
home on -Sunday, because my mother is
a poor lone widow, and she'll feel bad if
Em not home then." Kelly was a bright little
boy of about fourteen years, and was emploved
as clerk In the store of J. C. Whitehoitse. Dcy
street. His mother Is a widow in very destitute
circumstances, and depended chieily on tlio
earnings of her son. The unfortunate boy onlv
got into the wagon a short time before the ex
plosion occurred. Coroner Kccnan gave per
mission for the removal of the body to the resi
dence. No. :;.") Cherry street, and an Inquest will
be held to-day.
At nine o'clock lust evening Michael Mulca
liey, who is a boy of twelve years, was still
alive, but his death" was momentarily expected.
The body of this poor child presents a sickening
sigiit, tne external injuries being much more
severe than In the ense of Kelly.
The other sufferers bv this terrible accident
who aro lying at tho New York Hospital arc
William liedigan, of No. 45 Cherry street, aged
thirty-two; Thomas Mahcr, the President of the
Jeremiah Murphy Culb, of No. 84 Roosevelt
street, aired tliirlv: John tt'n"nn. of !Mn 4'!
Cherry street, nged thirty-five, and Michael
P.urrctt, of No. iii Cherry street, aged sixteen.
W'ogan and Rcdigan are progressing favorably.
but up to last accounts Matter's condition was
still considered critical. Barrett hns both eyes
burned out, and Is severely burned about the
arms. His recovery is very doubtful.
David Howard, alias "liallvhoolv." of No. 315
Water street, who was frightfully burned about
tne lower part ot tne body, is now lying at lielle-
vue Hospital in a very precarious condition.
CHASE.
lie Still Wnnlw to be IVetddcnt A Maryland
i mocinciil In hid Favor.
The Baltimore American of yesterday, says:
Au intelligent Washington correspondent of
tne c lncinnati uazcue, speaking ot the result Iu
V lrginiu, says:
"From lirst to last Chief Justice Chase was con
sulted, and for much of the time ho was on tho
ground in person. His preference for Walker did
more than anything else to divert the negro vote
from Wells, and it was the division of their vote that
elected Walker. The election maybe regarded as
the first success of the Chase movement for the next
Presidential campaign, which has already much
wider ramifications than manv believe, in Vlnrinla.
Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Maryland, and New
lork it nas already actively mauuested ltseir."
A similar movement is on foot in this State,
and those who are leading it have ample funds
to carry out tueir purposes. We hear a rrreat
deal of a split in the Republican party of Man'
land of a "Creswell clique" and a "Bond
clique, but the only real division is between
those who are earnest, active, aud true Repub
licans, wiio support rrcsident urant and his
administration, and those who would destroy
the Republican party in the interest of Judge
Chase. It is but a continuation of the same
movement that sent a contesting delegation to
tne Chicago xsationai convention, tne leaders ot
which held themselves aloof from tho reirular
Republican organization, were refused recogni
tion by the convention, and would undoubtedly
nave supported Judge Chase had tho lamrnany
Jiaii convention given nim tne nomiuatiou.
Ihese same men contested for a share of the
public ollices in Maryland; and those who re
ceived tnem are now using the oiiicial patronage
of the Government to obtain control
of a portion of the colored vote, aud
bind them by secret oaths to implicitly follow
their lead. The 1st of June Convention was
really a convocation of these secret colored
leagues, the object ot which will ultimately be
tounu to be to secure tueir support ot a con
servative candidate for Goveruor. But few
colored men in Maryland will support a Demo
cratic candidate, hence the dodgo of a conserva
tive candidate will be resorted to. V ho that
candidate will be, or at least who has already
put himself in training as most available, Is
very apparent to all who understand the chi
canery ot those wiio are laboring to uiviae tue
Republican party.
THE CABINET.
What Was Pone Yesterday Tho Vital Insnes
ISot leliberiiieil Upon.
The N. Y. llerald's Washington despatch,
dated yesterday, says:
An extra session ot the Cabinet was held to
day at noon, all tho members, with the excep
tion of Mr. Creswell, being present. The meet
ing was a long one, lasting until after 4 o'clock,
Most of the business was of a routine character,
pertaining to the departments, and which had
accumulated during the President's absence. It
is ascertained that the question of the test oath
being administered to the members elect of
the Virginia Legislature, and tho annronckinir
political campaign iuMissiBsippi, wero not re
ferred to, although the parties immediately iu-
terestea were comment mat they would be
brought up and definitely settled. With regard
to the te6t oath in Virginia, it was thought that
inasmuch as the matter has been olllclally re
ferred to the Attorney-General for an opinion, it
would be improper to bring it into the Cabinet
pending the preparation of that opinion. The
Attorney-Geueral did not intimate that he was
through considering the question, and nothing
was done, mere is unquestionably a good deal
of feeling among the members of the Cabinet
individually relative to the Mississippi cam
paign, but It could not be brought up in any way
except tho President had volunteered to do it for
the purpose ot asking advice, which he did not.
It is understood that the Cuban question occu
pied considerable of the time of the Cabinet, but
In what shape it was laid before them, or what
conclusions were reached, it seems impossible to
ascertain to-night. Several ot the Cabinet offi
cers who have been questoned on the subject re
fuse to say anything about it, tuougn they do
not deny that it was uiscusscn.
This evening secretary f lsii entertained the
President at dinner, and most of the Cabinet
oflicers were present.

Kvlntnllnii ot iliindcr Agalna! Mr. Delano.
Despatch to The livening Telegraph.
The recent statement in the New York Sun
that Commissioner Delano had secretly in
structed the revenue oflicers of New York to
stop nil distilleries there until further orders,
and giving as a reason that Mr. Delano, being a
Western man, is opposed to New York distille
ries, and in favor of Western manufacturers, is
pronounced an unmitigated falsehood.
Mr. Delano is only opposed to tho unlawful
distillation of whisky, and if there is any such
in New York, is opposed to it, as.he would be in
similar cases elsewhere. It is supposed in the
Revenue Bureau here that the recent activity of
the New York oflicers in ferreting out frauds in
distillation in that city la at the bottom of this
story. Anyhow, it is made out of tlie whole
cloth, and there is uot a particle of foundation
for It.
A Itevenue DeclHlon,
The Commissioner of Internal Revenue de
cides that where parties buy from packers and
dealers In bulk, meat or bacon and pork which
is merely packed in salt, but not smoked, also
rendered lard in a crude state, and take tho
bacon or pork they smoke and repack it with
their trade marks and names, and sell it, or sell
without packing, or prepare tlio crude lard and
repack and sell it in tho 6iinie manner, they are
engaged in the preservation of bacon and bird
under tho section of tho act of March 31, IStiS,
and liable under 6ald section to the tax Imposed
by said acts.

HON. ISAAC TOKCKV.
At 7 o'clock this morning tlio Hon. Isaac
Toucey, who held tho position of Secretary of
the Navy during the Buchanan administration,
died at ids residence in Hartford, Conn. I In
was born in 1708, aud entered the profession of
the law. He was a gentleman of culture and
refined tastes, ond his abilities, though not of a
marked original cast, were such as to bo practi
cally available in public life. From 1835 to 1S3!)
he was a member of the National House of Rep
resentatives; in 1S4U he was elected Governor of
Connecticut; President Polk appointed him to
the position of United States Attorney-General;
and during President Pierce's administration he
served a term In tho United States Senate, from
the year 1852 to 1857. President Buchanan,
early in his administration, appointed him Secre
tary of the Navy, and he continued to discharge
the duties of that office uutil the inauguration of
President Lincoln.
During the "times that tried men's souls," In
the six months of sorrow and dismay that
stamped tho mark of infamy upon Buchanan's
administration, the name of tho Secretary of
the Navy was connected with disloyal and trea
sonable deeds. It was charged that he threw
all the powerful influence of his department in
favor of tho rebellious South, aud many facts
gave strong weight to this view. Tho ships of
the Union were scattered abroad, among ports
of the world thousands of miles away, and
many weary months were spent after the fall of
Fort Sumter iu recalling our widely-dispersed
fleets. Some of the best men-of-war were dis
posed so as to fall into the hands of the seceders;
and had not the officers of the navy been made
In nature's pure mould, the new administration
would have been robbed of its strong right arm
of service by the surrender of their charges. It
will be remembered how many noblo ships were
sacrificed at Fortress Monroe, in order that they
might not be captnred; and tho inference is
plain that they wero thus designedly stationed
to fall into tho hands of traitors.
"Tho evil that men do lives after them," and
we conceive it to be the duty of independent
journalists to place on record tho condemnation
of acts heinous in intent, or, in the most merci
ful view, so lamentably deficient In true manli
ness as to rob our country of her power. Mr.
Toucey's closing years of life have been spent in
retirement at Hartford. The people have boon
glad to overlook his name, and the announce
ment of his death cannot but recall the heart
Bickcning acts of his life.
A New Trouble for KoMceraim.
Tho Cincinnati Commercial says that the
pinion has been expressed to us by a resident
of California that General Rosecrans considers
himself a citizen of that State, and that, acting
in that capacity, ho has on several occasions
voted for State and county officers. Having
domiciled there, and exercised the rights of a
citizen, he cannot bo regarded as a citi.cu of
Ohio, und to become one it would be necessary
for him to return hero and remain during the
period required by law of tho citizens of any
other State, before ho can cxerciso tho privi
leges of full citizenship. In other words, being
a citizen of California, ho could uot return here
and be a qualified voter in October, and if not a
qualified voter, he is ineligible to tho office of
Governor of Ohio.
It would bo a curious circumstance, after all
tho dcclamatiou that has been indulged in by
the Democratic press touching tho evils of car-pet-bagglug,
if it should turn out that the De
mocracy of Ohio havo been guilty not only of
nominating a carpet-bagger, but one who has
not resided in the State a sufficient length wf
time since domiciled iu another State to make
him a qualified voter, or eligiblo to office if
elected.

The Rintftrntlon of Women lo Cnnnihi.
The Jaih AV irs of Loudon has the following:
Mios Rye finds plenty of candidates for emi
gration on this side, and ample offers of employ
ment await them on tho other side; her plau,
however, as we understand it, Is for tho emigra
tion of younger girls. Her last emigrants are
described by a Canadian paper as rosy girls In
their teens. At such an age they arc more likely
to be useful in the colony, more likely to fail
into their new life naturally and easily, than
they would be if they were a few years older.
They are just at the ago at which girls in Eng
land first go out to service, or are first finding
their way into situations. Of course a cargo of
such girls involves considerable; responsibility;
and Miss Rye is doing a public service in under
taking it. l'lie emigration of such girls under
such auspices is one of the smaller beneficent
movements of the age. It would be fortunato if
it could be done with the same minute inquiry,
the same careful supervision, and tho same suc
cess, upon a larger scale. That would require
tifty -Miifs Ryes, and we have but one.
A reri-uiie ii-oiilit tn Virginia.
The Alexandria, Vti., Gazette prints a letter
from Hanover, in which we find the following:
Within the memory of tho oldest inhabitant
no Mich drought has ever visited our section as
this. For forty-live or more days no rain ha3
falleu towctjlie earth, and during tho whole
time there have been blighting winds and
scorching suns. The grass U withered and dry,
the gardens have ceased to yield their usual pro
duels, and the corn is in" every stage of dis
ability, from the stunted dwarf to tho faded and
dried leaf. On lauds which usually produce
from five to eight barrels of corn to tho acre,
the tassel is making Its appearauco on stalks
from two to four feet high. Our most reliable
farmers say that future propitious seasons can
not produce more than half a crop on the best
cultivated fields. Tho oat is estimated at one
half its usual crop. Tobacco is small, sickly,
and very much missing. Peas, potatoesr
melons, buckwheat, sugar cane, broom corn,
cottou, pumpkins, etc., are iu a sickly and pre
carious condition.
IinvtifiPB of the KlndcrncMt.
A German correspondent writes as follows:
"The rinderpest has broken out in some neigh
borhoods of tho district of Zloseow, in Gallcla.
Although the iufected district is a hundred aud
fifty miles distant from tho Prussian borders,
measures have been taken by Prussia to prevent
the importation of the disease, as tho Zloscow
district is traversed by a line of railroad which
transports an immense number of cattle from
other districts of Galicla and from Prussia.
"The Zeilschrift fur rreusxen, in speaking of
the subject, says the disease, in its devastations,
is traced back fourteen hundred j'ears; it was
the regular compaulon of great armies in their
canipaigus, and went with them in all countries.
In the years 1700-17 Europe is estimated to have
lost no less than 1,500,000 head of cattle by it.
In the middle of the lust century it entered Eng
land; in the third year of the pestilence 30,000
cattle were killed; iu the fourth year a still
greater number. In the year 1747 tho English
couiitlf s of Nottingham, Leicester, and Cheshire
had a loss of 70,000 animals. In tho thirty years
during which time tho pestilence raged in
Europe over 3,000,000, animals must have fallen.
In 1770 Holland had 375,000 animals destroyed,
und lost the greater part of her cattle. In the
yuars 17!i3-!)5 from 3 to 4,000.000 animals died of
the pest in Italy. In the following year France
lost animals amounting to twelve millions of
francs.
"The Russian war in this century Introduced
the pestilence with tho army everywhere; in the
year 1813 in some neighborhoods of Germany
nearly all the animals died. The modern devas
tations of this pest are well known. Austria is
seldom free from it, and it is Idle to hope that
the pestilence will disappear from her soil while
Russia is constantly exporting diseased cattle
thither." s

The London J'all Mall Gazette says:
The charitable institutions of England have
lately hit upon a most ingenious moillo of obtain
