SEX:RETARY 1101.1TWELL'S ORDEU
Secretary Boutwell's order forbid
ding any borrowing of money by
theemployet. of his Department on
their s orissj, and providing that the
clerks shill be paid off semi-monthly
hereafter, is causing great consterna
tion'anioug the money Itrokers here,
Iferetofore it has been customary for
many clerks to borrow- money at
from la to 20 per cent month, and
give an order on their disbursing
Oe for the amount. The effect of
all this has been to keep the clerks .
dependent from one month to uneth
er upon Money Brokers. Soliard up
are the clerks it is a very usual thing
for them to be compelled to borrow
money the next day after paid ot?.

A JUDGE AtOiAULTEIA
Again.is the jullge of our Orphans'
Court attacked in theancient town of
Bladensburg, six miles out Of Wash
ington, by a lawleN cowatdly mob,
to say the least, and nearly drowned.
It is but just tngive a brief retro
spect. Judge Purcell, the subject of
this note, is the owner Of a house in
Bladensburg, whore he and his fain-•
sly sometimes reside during the hot
season, but when his 'bowie Is not
occupied by himself and family, It Is
rented.
Not long since the judge became
dissatisfied with -his tenant—which
is very common with Landlords when
they don't get their rent promptly,
or their , premises • are occupied for
disorderly purpose—and notified him
to leave. The tenant enraged, sued
the Judge for services claimed to be
rendered, and at the Ceurt the Judge
becoming angry, used language de.;
famatory of the character of his ten
ants which was considered by some
reflective upon the character of the,
ladies severely In Bladensburg.—
loon after the suit vies concluded,
Aiamm .
young braces of the Burg attacked the
Judge and punished him severely,
and in the seutikthe Judge losts'2.lo.
Mud, has been written of this first

considered a good joke—ifave the litss

town, and the partiem implicated hi

It seems that on biriday hist, the
Judge again visited Bladensburg
on busines4, and as he in company
with a friend after dark wnt return

a unite, to take the train for Washing
ton, he was followed by there would

hut it is reported tha the Judge was
again seized, subme ed again and
again, by two men disguise! as :le,

last he was allowed to beat a retreat.
But arriving at the tip ot and while
waiting. for the tntinto bring him to
Washington, he was dunin easiudted,
knocked doWn intotthe mud and
stamped upon.
Judge Purcell is :t 'luau of nearly
sixty years of age, Judge of. the Or

bay their nominations in its ranks,

truth by passing unheeded and -un

at a time when Moak is leaded with

erty, 88,000 acres of :improved Lando
near Bloomington, embraceing the
Aunods Funk grove, 5,000 acres of
the finest forest in the State. The
point at issue is the legitimacy of the
petitioner, all else being yrickled by
his opposing relations. The evidence
given is a fiuully history. . Isaac.
Funk in 1830 lived in Ohio, and be
came so intimate with a young wo
man that James Funk was a (tense.
quenee of theireontmudfon. and after
birth continued the connec tion 'until
a daughter was bbrn when theit was
coolness for some time. But *hen,
shortly after, the young . mothe was
Aired us housekeeper to Isaac's then,
shared her chamber as her hus rand,
and when he and his broth run
awayfrom their debts, her thirtlehild
being then but six 'days old, she so
exerted herself for his comfort that
she died a few days thereafter. Funk
returned to Ohio a few years_ after
ward, raid his debts, and • brought
his son James back home with him ;
'and having married in the meantime,
proceeded to raise him with the rest
of his children, all the • time ackow
edging him as his son. The ques
.tion, of course, is, whether the long
continued f• intimacy of father and
mother, and the undisputed recogni
tion of the son's claims do or do not
constitute a valid marriage, without
legal ceremony. .
THE recent • nomination of B. B.
Strang for the Legislature in 'flogs
county, is .raising a Storm of Indigna
tion among the Itepubileans In other
localities of the State. Mi. Strang
was a member of the last Legislature,
and was the recognized champion of
almost every measure that tool: m on
e; ant of the State Treasury. His
course and that of his followers • last
winter at Harrisburg willvost the
party not less than thousands of votes
at the October election. The Bedford
Inquirer, a leading Republican paper
of this State takes this view of trang's
nomination:..
"We protest against returning men
who have been known to take part
In, vote for, or connive at any man
ner of corruption and swindling. We
want honest men who know and will
dare to do their duty. To mond
merit men atiStrang is treason to
