MR. FR.ED.RICF: WAS, of Cat
li4e, Pa., Was recently appointed by
Preside.nt Grant, as Commissioner of
Agriculture. Much speculation has
been indulged in liy the public press
of the country, as to whether he
would aect.pt of the position. The
Herald, of that place, of Thursday
hit sets the matter at rest by stating
in positive terms that the Judge has
'accepted the appointment, and would
enter upon the duties of his office on
the first of August, (yesterday,) at
which time s his commission takes
effect.
AA' association of capitalists and
bankers in Germany have established
a bureau in Frankfort for the purpose
of investigating 'the soundness of
American securities of all kinds, and
for promoting the investment of capi
tal in American bonds and works of
internal improvement. It is also , an
object of this association to promote
emigration to America Irk order to
assist the sale and cultivation of pub
lic hinds, the parties interested in
the movement believing that the
labor of those emigrating will add
greatly to the wealth of the country,
and to the stability of Its interests.

During all this time the enemies of

Sous weeks ago, it will be re
met»hered„ we published an: account
of the death of Slntantft, an Apache
chief, while attempting to escape
from, his guard who had started with
hi ni as a prisoner to be tried for
murder. The latest news from 'tex
as contradicts this, and brings us the
intelligenve of his trial and convic
tion for murder in the first degree,
as also, of that of the chief Blg Tree.
Judge Seward, who presided at their
trial, thought their punishment
ought to be imprisonment for life,
and Mr. Taturn, the Indian Agent.
also used his influence to secure this
result; Gen. Sherman had ordered
that they be held until a final order

ed. It is probable, therefore: that
they wilt not be eXetuted. Santanta

THE,lteporta reeeiveal at the In

will look for a reservation for all
their people in the Indian Territory,
to be locattsl at a distance from the
Texas border. The agent who was
dispatched to Mexico in order to in
duce the return of the KickapooS;
says these Indians are near Santa
lain Ctrahuila, and mentions as a
Igular fact that a Mexican Corn
i fission had arrived at that place but
tt e week in advance of ouragent and

tfe and corn to the Eickapoos. The
Mexlmns are anxious to retain the
liickapios, for the reason that if they
,hull leave the community will be in
,-,,34t,1ed by the Mechalard, Apaches,
Lepaus, and other marauding In
dians ; that. the Kickapoos are the
only defense of the Mexicans, and
k. that their labor and trade are matters
of no mean importance to them. The
report also shows that one of the
Indian chiefs Nrtio bribed by the
m'exteams not to i*.msent to the re

especially the squaws, had made ar
rangements for departure. The ob.
Ject,Of our Government, in desiring

CitAaGm of fraud, bribery and
corruption in the Republican ranks
have been unsparingly made by the
Democratic Press during the past
few years, and with color of truth ;
but the party has been actively and
successfully engaged in purging Itself
of that stigma. Not so with the
Democratic party. Wberever they
are in the majority frauds are -un
blushingly perpetrated. Instance the
tremendous frauds being unearthed
by 'The New. York Sim, committed by
the Tammany Ring—the fountain
head of the Democratic party in the
United States—frauds to the amount
Of millions of dollars have been per
petrated by the Democratic leaders
of New York, and proven beyond all
cavil ; yet _they dare not prosecute
the Sun for libel in tbeexposure. So
far from this, it is credibly asserted
that the Tammany Ring have °tiered
a million of dollars to buy the silence
of that paper.
And now comes the news that the
I Dem ocra ti Ststle Printer ot In d ian a—
Richard J. Bright, of the Indlanopo
!is Sentinel,—has been arrested and
held for examination on a charge of
perjury in swearing to false accounts.
The Democratic State Central Com
mittee was called together on Mon
day of last week to consider the
chargesegainst him, and he was ex
pected to appear and explain the dif
tiCnlfy, but failed to do K.; and the
Committee decided to take no action.
It is claiz led he WAS compelled to
overdraw to sustain his paper, and
that at the close of his term he will
come out with a clear balance ghee
but how can he answer the false pre
tense of the State officials whoseerti7
tied to his ageounts and paid him the
money" How answer the charge of
perjury in swearing to money due
which was not due ? Truly, this is a
corrupt age.
JOSEPEE K. TURNER, a lawyer of
Titusville, Crawford pounty, Pa., was
convicted at the late session of the U.
S. District court, held at Erie, of three
charges of forgery and perjury, and
one of special tax ease, in procuring
1"......i...;„. 1 ._
lug the mercy of the Court for miti
gation of the sentence, he stated-that
were -he to suffer alone, he would sub
niit without a word to whatever sen
4enee the Court might feel it their du
ty to impose; but he had respectable
relatives—father, mother; brother
and sisters—who would suffer by his I
disgrace. He had enlisted in 1861,
and was hi the army of the Potomac
two years, when he
~w as discharged
as a disabled soldier. He enlisted
the second time, and- was out six
months, and honorably discharged.
He mane home; studied law, was ad
' mitte4 to the bar. He was poor.
He regretted the crime, and could
not comprehend how he had been
tempted to commit it. He had a
christian education. Hethrew him
self on the mercy of the Court, hoping
that the foundations of life he hadat
tempted to build might not be shat
tered by the sen tence they were about
to pass, but that "the dark clouds
now hoveringover him might burst
in blessings on his head."
Judge McCandless said this was
one of the most painful eases that had
ever come before him, that a "mem
ber of an honorable society—the bar
of the U. S. Courts—should be proven
guilty of systematic frauds that com
prehended perjury, subornaticin of
perjury and forgery ; perjury on the
living and perjury on the deed ; at

tempting to cheat the. widow and the
orphan, and also to cheat the gov
ernment of money not due to any
one. Merry ". was for the Execu
tive, the Court must see that the
laws were executed. He, therefore
sentenced him to pay a fine of $2,4900,
and undergo an imprisonment In the
Western Penitentiary for fourteen
Yeats in all.
In the case of Victoria Jackson, the
woman who was convicted at the
Afime term of the Court as an aeeom
piic© of Turner, sentence WO sus
pended,-and she will be discharged.
It was ntade apparent to the Court
that she had been made the dupe of
Turner, and although criminal to the
extent of having personated another
woman in taking out the pension cit.-
tifimte, yet she done so under the
rep station that the perky") to
whom the pension was nude paya

the money would be z gre a t relief to
her.
Mr. Turner was hand-cuffed, put
aboard the can, and en his way to
Allegheny city, when within n mile
or two of Wts•t Greenville, Mercer
county, the train slacked up at the
missing of the Great Western road,
and the prisoner escaped from the
water-closet of the cars Intoiwhich he
had meekly and repentantly entered

Indeed, the gentleman who vouches

HEARD FROM.
Partieulars of His Eie4eape.
District Attorney Swoopo received
from his specialofficer; sent to con
tinue the Search for Turner, the es•
coped forger, a report, from Which
he has permitted us to take the fol
lowing 'filets: Turner Jumped from
the train abOut midway between the
rolling mill below Greeriville and
' Shenango Station, at least, three'quar
ters of a . mile farther north of the
railroad crossing, He lay after
noon concealed in a corn field. About
sunset, a little girl, daughter of Levi
Mot, came in collision with him in
her father'scorn field. lleolled her
and appealed to her to help him, pro
mising her his watch if she would
get him a file. She celled a Mr.
Hayes, but he refused to assist him,
though he also offered him his watch,
and told him that. he had been arrest
ed for selling whisky, and that if he
could get home he would give bail.
From here he took a northwest di
rection, and met one Daniel Koppen
berger, to whom -he appealed for help
but was refused. Further on he met
Lyons Harnett, who also refused to
help him. Ho went on in the same
direction, and since that we have x - no
information.
The little girl states that he was
badly bruised, his face and shirt bo
som being covered with blood. He
(=Honed her not to tell any (terson
she had seen him, - and she dtd 'not
tell her father until late in the even
ing.
The officer sent by the Distriet At/
torney is evidently on his truck and
will do doubt effect his recapture.
—ln speaking of the New York
riot the London Times says:
Now, this sad affair force upon us
one reflection. In America, the
Protestants are not landlords, nor the
Boman Catholic's tenants; no domi
nant Church has ever been pulled
down, nor does any exist to be sup
=d; no ancient walls like those of
-; or tattle-fields like that of the
Boyne, recall the memory of ancient
conflicts; and no ground of antagon
ism, either social or political. divides
the one faction from tho other. If,
therefore, Irish party feuds are as
implacable in America as in Ireland
and even more sanguinary, it con
cerns Itishrssen to ask themselves
whether Irish nature is not more re_. s eremote tbr their origin than Eng
loth misrule, especially as history at
tests their prevalence long before the
Conquest.

The Foxiest Recorded Running
Time.
When the colt Longfellow wag ro
undly said to John Harper fur about
five dollars an ounce, people thought
that the price was a rather high one,
but when the animal the other day
at Samloga made his mile 1p 1:40 the
.opinion was just as genOrnl that Mr.
John Harper was a very fortunate
man. Poor Herzog'S time' on the
Buckeye Course two years ago- 7 a
mile in 1:431--was looked upon as a
most wonderful achievement, and
when 'at Lexington hist 'spring Bu
ford's colt Salina knocked off the half

was believedqo, be established for
many years to come. Now, howev
er, Kingfisher makes his time in 1:41,
and loses the heat by a second to this
new wondor of poetic name and
practical achievements. If thingsgo
in this way we shall hear of a horse
before long that will knock off the
odd minute and run his mile in the
even seconds remaining.
