Smuggling Fire-arms to in
dians.—ln General Stanley's report of
Custar's fight with the Indians on the
Yellowstone, published yesterday, be
states the Indians were supplied with
Manchester rifles by traders, who now
ship guns as hardware. Western men,
now in Washington, state that It is the
regular practice of traders at all the
military posts on the Upper Missouri
river to sell rifles and ammunition to
the Indians under all circumstances and
at a large profit.- They state that it can
be proved beyond doubt, that directly
after the terrible massacre in Dakato,
two years ago, the Indians came into
the trading station with the blood on
their hands and clothes fresh from the
murder of women and children, and ob
tained from the Government agents
largo supplies of rifles and ammunition.
The following little romance is re
corded by the Aliance Local:
"On the Bth of July, 1872, Mr. A. C.
Myer. who bait charge of the telegraph
repairs on the C. dt P. It. It., started
from home on his trip of inspection,
putting a ten dollar bill loosely in his
pocket, with which to defray expenses.
Between Haznmondsville and Yellow
Creek, 'he found an insulator broken,
and placing a new one in his pocket as
cended and replaced the broken one and
passed on. After going a couple of miles
he missed the bill and went back to
where he had ascended the pole, making
diligent search, but without avail. Last
Saturday week, while in company with
five othentmaking repairs in that neigh
borhood, he ascended a pole to make
some changes in the arrangement, and
on removing an insulator be discovered
a piece of paper sticking to the bracket,
which on examining be' found to be the
identical bill, in good condition, that be
had lost more than a year ago."

The Tidioute Journal says: Tri
umph bqzats of a specimen of young
America, which will probably become
known to the world through the cot-
Emus of the Police Gazelle. He is a
youngster of about two years, smokes,
chews, and drinks beer to an amazing
extent. He gets drunk as often as his
old examples, and seems to enjoy it
about as much. When five cents is giv
en him to buy candy, he buys beer :in
stead, and instead of eating sugar takes
*chew of tobacco, and swallows it. His
language is a mixture of Five Points'
slang and oil talk. We will probably
hear from this youth in the•future.

Nothing gives na more respect for a
man than to see him use temperate lan
guage in discussing persona whom be
does not like. Thhi is the reason why
we have a profound regard for the edi
tor
of the Leztngtdit ado.) anusailan.
He is a man who restrains himself
when be feels mad. He was bitterly
opposed to the recent editorial con von- '
tion in St. Louis, and be said so; but in
stead of denouncing it with violent lan
guage, instead of hurling foul epithets
at it, instead of abusing the members
and blackguarding them and calling
them vile names, and indulging in in
decency and vulgarity, he chose a bet
ter and more christian course,
and merely referred kindly but de
cidedly to the convention as "an
aimless and fruitless catawampus
of nincompooplo gabsquirts and rap
scallions." And then, we suppose,
be had his head shaved and went
to bed. When such amiable gentlemen
as this control the press and help to
form public opinion, it would bo ridicu
lous not to expect the rapid growth of
the American people in christian civili
zetion.—Saturday Evening Poet.
New Castle had a $30,000 fire last
Monday one week ago. The fire broke
out in the stables attached to the Knox
House, and from thence spread to the
hotel named, and both were soon de
stroyed. From here the flames were
communicated to Fisher's floor and
feed store; thence to George Henry's
dry goods store; thence to McGee dr. Cub
bison's jewelry establishment; next to
McNair's merchant tailoring establish
ment; thence to Robinson's tobacco
store; thence to John Ewer's dry goods
establishment, the largest of the kind
in the city. Captain Gilland's trimming
and notion store was next struck, fol
lowed shortly after by McGowan's gro
cery,•the warehouse of J. N. Ewer and
Anthony Henderson, and McKee's sta
ble. All these houses were destroy
ed completely, together with a number
of stables and outbuildings of leas im
portance. Most of the merchandise In
the stores was saved. The gentleman
from whom the above inforniation was
obtained estimates the loss at about $30,-
000, on which their was partial insur
ance. The spread of the destructive el
ement was very rapid. and fears were
entertained that the disaster would be
extended over a still garatetarea. The
citizens end firemen worked- manfully,
however, and finally succeeded in sub
duing the fire. The loss will be severo
ly felt, but the h enterprising peOple of
New Oman soon, no fioubt, have
the burned-district covered with new
and more substeollat structures.

manufacturers of the postal cards seem
to be in , no hurry to answer the letter
of Third Asaletant Pestinauter • General
Barber notify ing them_ that the cards
are not equal to the requirements, and
unless the'qu.allty of the paper and the
printing be improved the contract will
be annulled and proceedings instituted
against them to recover the penalty
named in the bond-1100.000. B. Tyner,
postal card agent at Springfield, writes
to Third Assistant Postmaster General
Barber that on the 27th ultimo he reject
ed 903 sheets (about 32,000 postal cards)
on account of the miserable printing and
poor quality of the paper. Upon Mr.
Morgan, one of the firm having the con
tract, examining them, be said he would
like to save as many good ones from
the lot as possible, whereupon the agent
requested him to show any cards in the
whole lot that were equal to the contract
requirement. The contractor cut from
one sheet two cards, which, he said,
Were good enough to issue. The cards
were enclosed in s letter to General
Barber, and are very poor specimens of
typogiiphy. Mr. Tyner ordered that
the whole 32,000 cards be destroyed, and
the department has approved of this RC
lion. About two million more postal
cards will be required to complete or=
deri from alt the post-offices. It is ex
pected that this number will be shipped
within the next week, and the whole
country will then be supplied.

Collins, esq., which occurred on last
Wednesday evening at his residence on
Warren avenue, in this city, Chicago has
lost one of her most excellent citizens.
Mr. Collins came to this city several
years ago, and was associated with Mar
der & Luse in the type-foundry, but
more recently was coined in the whole
sale grocery business, as a member of
the firm of Collins, Whitney t Co. He
was born In Maryland, resided for many
years in Beaver county, Pennsylvania,
and in Steubenville, Ohio. Coining
'west, he settled in Davenport, lowa, and
from thence removed to this city.
While residing in Pennisylvania ha held
the office of Clerk of the Court, and . in
lowa was made Treasurer of Scott coun
ty. He was a man of unswerving integ
rity, was charged with many trusts,
and was faithful to the highest degree in
all. He was also well versed in the po
litical history of the country, and in the
campaigns before the war took an active
part in public speaking, with great suc
cess, and was the champion and friend
of some of the leading men of the time.
Though reared in a slave Stars he w is
opposed to slavery, and was also a warm
friend and earnest advocate of temper
ance. He has been identified with the
Eighth Presbyterian Church of this city,
was oue of its warmest supporters, a
leading trustee, greatly loved and re
spected, and the church, as well as the
city, sustain by his death a very great
loss—Mateo JoUrnai.
On Saturday a young man and wo
man got on the passenger train of the
Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad, due
here at five o'clock, at one of the sta
tions this side of Mingo. At the next
station another fellow got on and went
through the train evidently looking for
some one. As soon as be saw the young
man and woman sitting together, with
out a word he commenced beating and
kicking them both. The woman had
her eyes blackened and her clothing
torn and her companion was shameful
ly Refigured by the blows and kicks re
ceived. The passengers interfered and
the ruffian was bustled into another car.
At the nest station the man and woman
were put off, for the fellow who had
beaten them was swearing that be would
shoot them both. He was carried some
six or eight miles further down (be
road and be too was put off. No sooner
did the train start to move off without
him than he drew a revolver and com
menced an indiscriminate firing into
the train, causing the passengers to be
busy looking for something tinder the
seats of the cars. We hear that one
shot took effect in the arm of the con
ductor. The fellow should have been
caught and bung to a limb of the near
est tree.— Wheeling Regiater.
Eloped From Elizabeth Bor
ough.—A rather romantic and interes
ting elopement story comes from the
borough of Elizabeth, though at pres
ent the names of the principals are with
held from an anxious public. A minis
ter who reildes within the bounds of
the borough, Ms related, is the happy
father of two "amiable and interesting"
daughters—as the story books would
say. One of them is of about nineteen
summers, while ber sister is two
years younger. }or . some time—our
authority was not definite in regard to
dates—a yonngman living in the vicin
ity has been paying especial attention t°
the older lady, and maiden aunts and
village gossips generally, who always
know about such things, were well sat
isfied that the couple were engaged.
On Tuesday evening the young man
called At the house—as he had done on
previous occasions—bringing with him
a horse and buggy. In the calm, still
hours of the evening the buggy was
drawn up to the door. and one of the
young ladies—which proved to be the
younger one—got into the buggy, and
the two repaired to the Esquire's office
and were married. The consternation
of the family and of the village gossips,
when the revelation wits made the next
morning, may be imagined; it certainly
cannot be described. The denouement
of the affair was more unexpeettd, from
the fact that the young man bad appa
rently ignored the young lady entirely,
when he called at the house, and tbe ac
tions of the two would never have led
to.sukpeck such $ peculiar termination.

Mr. M. in his bare feet could not follow

the whole neighborhood was aroused,

An examination snowed that the rob
bars had gathered up all the silver
ware belonging to Major McCreery and
had it in a large basket, ready to carry it
away, and in another basket they had a
ham and several loaves of bread which
they procured In the kitchen. In their
haste to get beyond the reach of Mr. Mc

thing, and sought only to erape

Conspiracy to Defratid.—A case
eliciting considerable interest was tried
in our court last week. The facts are
substantially as follows ; A man named
Coblenz; and claiming to be a doctor, is
the patentee of a liniment which he calls
Coblenz' Amithetic. He lived in Beaver
Falls, and understanding the gullibility
of some of the people in that rural vil
lage he began to devise ways and means
to dispose of the receipt for making his
liniment. He first approached a man
by the name of Yenta, and agreed to
make him his agent in effecting a sale,
and told him be must act under his in
structions. Subsequently he instructed
Yenta to see an aged man by the name
of Inman, living in Beaver Falls, and
offer bim the right to make and sell the
liniment. In accordance with his in
structions he visited Inman, and pro
posed that they should buy the liniment
together, stating that he knew a man in
Pittsburgh who would give $3,000 for it
and they could buy it for 52,000. - In.;
did not ogree to buy it atthaftinie.

Nulty saying that be meant business,
He and Inman visited Cobloui for the
.purpose of talking the thing over, but

lens then wrote a letter himself to be
shown Inman, and instructed Yonts
that when they came again to see him,
that he—Youts—must try, in the hear
ing of Inman, to get him to lower his
price. The second letter was shown In
man, and they again visited Coblenz.
Youth carried out his instructions but
Cobleus refused to tall. A bargain was
finally struck—Youta and Inman agree
ing each to give his note for $l,OOO. They
then repaired to the office of S. Magtiw,
esq., where the notes were drawn; and
executed also an article of agreement for
the sale of the recipe. It having been
previously agreed between Youth
and Coblenz that Coblenz was
to return Youts ins note. Yenta
turned States evidence and it seem
ed from his evidence that after con
summating the bargain, they went to
Pittsburgh io see the man „McNulty,
who had offered 53,000 for the recipe.
Youta taking with him some of the tnon
ey obtained on the note of Inman, which
Cobleni bad got discounted by a bank
in Harmony. You's met him in the
Court House, gave him the envelope con
taining money sent by Coblenz, and told
him what they were after, and that In
man was waiting to see him, to get bim
to buy the liniment (or the right to make
it) for $3,000 as he had offeind to do; (be
ing thuspnt on his guard) he dodged
Inman who never was able to get to see
him. Youth then applied to Coblenz to
give up his note, but Coblens said that
it would be necessary for him to allow
a judgment to be had on it In order to
lull the suspicion of Inman. Accord
ingly they met before a Justice of the
Peace, and 'louts amicably confessed a
judgment for the amount of the note; he
afterwards threatened Coblenz with ex
jusure to ioduce him to satisfy this
dgment. It was also in evidence that
Coblenz gave Yenta part of the money
obtained on the note, and subsequent')
took a part of what he had given him
from him again. These are the facts as
shown by the State and upon which the
jury returned a verdict of guilty.
