The newspapers of to-dny credit tho American
Board of Missions with tho endorsement and
appointment of Tercy B. Spear as an Indian
agent. This is Incorrect. Mr. Spear was re
commended to the President by the "American
Church Missionary Society," a partisan society,
outside of any control of the General Conren
tion of the Church. The Board of Missions is
the only authorized agency of the whole Church
for mission work, and It Is constituted without
reference to any party predilections. The
American Church Missionary Society is the
voluntary agency of a minority of extreme men
who claim to represent the "evangelical" senti
ment of the Church. Their unfortunate selec
tion seems to show that men may be so blinded
by party prejudice that they sometimes fall to
discover a want of moral principle. As the
Board of Mictions did not make this nomination,
and as the Church is no wise- responsible for it
(save as the act of individual member), I will bo
glad if you will make this correction.

rRETTY FEMALE COUNTERFEITERS.
Bhavlnr thr Ourer A New Plelit far Wamrn.
The Cincinnati Gazette of Friday last has tho
following:
Marshal Van Sandt, of Middlotown, Butler
county, arrived in this city this morning; with a
couple of very interesting fcmalo prisoners,
whom he hud picked up in bis bailiwick on the
charge of having in their possession and passing
counterfeit money.
The glr!f are named Gertrude and Mollie
Stadtfeldr, and are aged twenty and sixteen re
spectively. They hail from Dayton, Ohio, where
their father, Nicholas Stadtfeldt, runs a match
factory.
Their plan was to visit tho groceries and dry
goods stores and buy small bills, presenting each
time a counterfeit ten-dolLir national bank bill,
and receive nod money In exchange.
They were arrested and arraigued before a
village magistrate, who held tbo.ia until they
could be taken in charge by a Deputy United
Slates Marshal and brought to the city for trial.
After the arrest of the girls, an investigation
disclosed the iact that bills of the same kind
had been passed in the village by tho mother of
the girls, the week previous, and that the
brother also had been engaged in tho business.
Yesterday the father came down from Dayton
and made au effort to redeem all of tho bills,
with a view to destroying the evidence against
the girls, ('in only succeeded in getting a few
of them. The specimens obtained by tho Mar
shal are very fair, although not sulllcicntly well
executed to" escape defection by au ordinary
judge.
The girls admit that they passed the bilU, but
claim to have been ignorant of the fact that they
were counterfeit. Their story is that while on
their way from Dayton to Middlotown last
Tuesday, the younger sister, Mollie, found the
roll on the floor of the car.
This story being considered too "thin," the
Commissioner, in default of iWOO bail each,
committed tliem to jail to await future examina
tion. The counterfeits are all upou tho National
Bank of Poughkeepsic, New York.
Gertrude, tlio elder, is a fine-looking specimen
of the brunette type, while her si.ster is a perfect
blonde. Both girls are quite good-looking and
Intelligent. Gertrude seemed to take matters
quite coolly, and bore herself with perfect self
possession, but her more youthful sister and
accomplice was deeply affected, and wept bit
terly during the progress of tho examination.
A FRIGHTFUL SLIDE.
Three liny Kail a DUtnneeof Three Hundred
Feet hhiI t.scupe Dettih A IHont Remarkable
Accident.
The very lippry condition of tho thorough
fares for the past two days, occasioned by tho
frozen snow, has been the cause of numerous
falls and accidents to pedestrians, and in some
instances serious injury has resulted to those
who tumbled while threading their way over tho
slippery surface.
We hear of a very serious accident of this
nature occurring last evening about 0 o'clock
to three youths, one of whom is doubtless in
jured bejoud roeovery. At the hour mentioned
above, a son of Mr. Kramer, twelve years of
age, and two boys named lUlluun and Rice,
aged respectively eiirht and nine years, were
playing in a yard on Fuller street, on tho top of
Mt. Adams. While engaged in their sport they
noticed the escape of a chicken from its coop in
the yard, and at once gave chase to secure it,
young Kramer leading. Tho chicken tiew over
the fence, and alighting ran over to the side of
a stocp hill, which is at least three hundred feet
from its apex to Its base.
The boys, in tho impetuosity of the chase,
paying no attention to the slippery condition of
the hill, started down the declivity, and before
making many steps lost their balance, fell, and
commenced sliding down tbe hill with fearful
velocity. Kramer, who could not arrest his
rapid flight, weut to the bottom of the hill,
while the other two by rolling over managed to
arrest their headlong flight when about half
way down.
On approaching Kramer It was found that he
was unconscious, his skull badly fractured and
his body covered with bruises, and such is his
present condition that no hopes are entertained
of his recovery.
Rice" escaped with a severe bruise on the
head, and Baldman was fortunate enough to be
uninjured. The wonder Is that the trio were
not instantly killed in their terrible descent.

DISASTER IX NEW YORK BAY.
ExplosloA of a TiiK-bont-dne Mnn Drowned
Hurt meven Others Injured.
The New York Post of Saturday evening
Bays:
The explosion of the boiler of a tug in the bay
has been reported. Tho following details of
the atlair nave since been gathered: snortiy
after nine o'clock this morning, while the tug
boat l'hiroix was towing the.ship Hudson, from
London, just outside the bar, the boiler of the
tug exploded with terrific force.
The boat was badly shattered, and sank
within fifteen minutes after the explosion. The
fireman, Henry McDermott, was undoubtedly
blown Into the water and lost, as he has not
eince been seen. The rest of the crew, after
being blown into the air, fell back upon the
deck of the boat, from which they were rescued
by the boatb of the Hudson.
They were taken to the tug Baxter, which
came to their attdstanee, and were brought by
her to this city.
A boat was 'tent to the ship Ocean Queen,
which was pussiug the scene of the disaster just
after its occurrence, and the ship's surgeon taken
to the Baxter, where he rendered medical assist
ance to the snffeiers.
The captain of the Pho-nlx, Patrick Monks,
had his head cut and was seere)y bruised
otherwise. His injuries are not, however,
thought to be serious.
The I'hu'Dix was valued at $17,000, and wu
uninsured. Tbe boiler of the boat was new,
and is claimed to have been iu good order.
VYASIIRURXE IX PARIS.
How eur ffllnlnter Uelcve lU l.etler-baf
lria America.
The Paris Journal JUn Jte'iat thus describes
the ceremonies attendant upon the transmission
of MinUter Washburne's correspondence:
"Every Tuesday, at 10 o'clock in the morning,"
It says, "the bugle-blasi, heralding a parley, is
blown on- tho Sevres bridge, and tho white Mag
is unfurled. A Prussian officer, in irreproacha
ble attire, gloved and booted a for the drawing-room,
advances over the bridge until he
reaches tbe broken arch, and saluting, addresses
his speech to the French officers lu waiting:
'(ieut'.emen, I have the honor to salute you."
"Sir, we have the honor to salute you."
I l.AVfi the honor to inform vou
that I am iatrusted with tbe mission of ( placing
iuto your aaucj r. v axuvuruc a wu. .
"Sir, we shall have the honor of fetching the
package "
Then follows an exchange of military salutes,
and the French, crossing the river in a small
boat, receive from the I'rnsslan officer tho diplo
matic documents. Then come fresh salutes,
then a rctnrn within the lines, and, If necessary,
firing is recommenced as soon as the white flag
is lowered. Thus enter into Paris just now the
official despatches of the great republic
Ther give prizes to the raggedest skater at
the St. Paul Kink.
A Chicago man has recovered f"00 damages
from a sportive companion of Irish birth who
knocked out one of bis teeth, and thereby
caused him much pain and incapacitated him
for a time for business.
General Thayer hns recently added $'2000 to
his previous gifts for the endowment of the
Thayer School of Civil Engineering, at Dart
mouth College, and has intimated that he will
soon increaso tho amount to $70. 000. It Is now
over no, 000.
A drunken student in tho University of
Virginia wantonly shot a colored man on Mon
day, and one of the local papers treated tho
crime as a very amusing event, under the cap
tion, "Run, nigger, run." Another paper in the
town, however, characterized it as an outrage.
