fa"ln both houses of Congress on Mon
day, (Says the - American) the business of
most interest under'consideration refitted
to the currency, question- in the Senate,
Mr. Sherinan,. from the Finance Commit
tee, reported the compromise bill, :tweed
epon tor that committee, to provide for
the redemption and reissue of United
States notes and for free banking, , It
fixes the limit of the legal tender issue at
082,000 ; 000. and also provides rot free
banking, but obviates expansion by re
quiring that tender notes shall be retired
as fast as bank notes are issued. The
working of the bill, as we understand it,
will be to increase the banking capital of
the country by $100,00,0,000 (this capital
to be distributed to the States net now
having their proper portion), and to re
duce the legal tender issue to three hun
dred millions, so that when its provisions
aro fizlly carried out the amount of no-
Aortal currency will stand at $500,000,000
and legal tenders at $300,000,000, making
the entire paper currency of the country
$800,000,000. Nothing in the act is to
be construed as authorizing any increase
of the public debt of the United States.
Mr. Sherman, in introducing the bill, said
that it had been agreed upon as a com
promise between the members of the com
mittee, that some of its features were not
approved of by several members, and that
- he had given his own consent to it with
great reluctance. To-day he will make
an explanation of its provisions and their
effect if adopted. After the introduction
of the bill the debate on the currency
question was. resumed, M. Morton argu
ing in favor of expansion, and a general
debate followed on the power of the Sec
retary of the Treasury to reissue the forty
million reserve, Mr. Conkling affirming
this power and Mr. Sherman denying it.
SCIIGEPPE AGAIN IN TROUBLE.
notorious Dr. Schoeppe, who it is
alleged by several Western journals, has
been operating extensively in that section
by swindling and forging under the name
of Count Schulenberg was arrested in Bal
timore, on the 18th inst., charged with
being a common swindler. He was lock
ed up in the Western-district station
house to await examination. While in
tbo cell lie was observed tearing up and
throwing away a number of papers. He
was seized and searched, and several rail
road passes over Western roads, letters,
notes; &c., all in the name of J. B. Schul
enberg, were found on his person. An
investigation took place before Justice
Bell, H. Clay Dallam appearing for the
executors of Miss Steinecke,. who it will
be remembered Schoeppe was charged to
have poisoned at Carlisle, Pa.
A Baltimore correspondent, writing us
under date of the 20th inst., says that at
the hearing before Judge Brown on that
morning, Paul sat composod and very at
tentive. After the hearing, the judge
reserved his decision until the 21st. Two
dispatches were read in Court, asking the
retention of the prisoner—ime from the
Governor of Illinois, the other from the
chief of Police of Chicago—until the ar
rival of the officer sent to take him to
Chicago, where he is wanted. • ,
The same correspondent informs us
that his (Scheeppe's)picture was taken for
the "rogue's gallery," but it is not a good
one. Each attempt made to take %cm ,
red picture failed. The Doctor would
draw his face out of all natural shape
and would shed tears the tears, appearing
in the eyes and on the face in the picture.
He remarked to the operator that he was
offered thou sands of dollars in New York
to sit for his picture, and always refused
"and' now to think, I must have it taken
for' ;the "rogues" gallery." Next week
we will give a brief sketch of his career
since his release at Carlisle in 1872, show
ing that he was once again married and
divorced, arrested as a swindler and escap
ed jostico, &c.
ATTACK OF CitusAmtfes.—At Jefferson
ville, Ind., after Mrs. Hunt had finished
her street lecture on temperance the cru
saders started on their daily saloon visits.
They held service in front of several, and
arrived at John Little's on Spring street.
Here they met Mrs. Little at the door,
who attacked Mrs. Jackson, one of the
leading crusaders, throwing her down.—
The police interfered and quieted the dis
turbance. Mrs. Little told the crusaders
it would be better for them to beat home,
where they belonged, and look after their
own families, instead of trying to make
trouble at other people's houses. The ser
vices were continued at the saloon for two
hours, and the crowd did not disperse un
til several buckets of water were thrown
upon them from the second story windows.

OUR ELATION DISTRICT.—A edsres
pondent in another column suggesta the
propriety of having our election district
divided. One reason assigned is, that
under the new election law too much la
bor, for the One allowed. is imposed on
one set of officers. The change suggested
is certainly, under the circumstances, one
that is much needed, and an early move
towards its consummation should be made.
We understand Antrim township has a
petition ready for April Court asking
for reviewers. In that township instead
one they propose having Liar voting phi.
ces. •
Mn. EDITOR :—lt has been thought fur
several years that our election district
shauld be divided. An: now ' undeilhe
nee Constitution an opportunity is pre
sented, and under the' new general elec
tion law, the division is imperatively de
manded. There are about one thousand
voters in the district, and when a full vote
is out, the election officers are too much
hurried. to, perform all the duties enjoined
upon them by the la*, and as the vote is
now required to be counted out and prop
er returns made to the county seatat noon
of the next daY succeeding the election,
the change spoken of it will be seen is ab
solutely needed.
In order to have the division made be
fore the November election, it will be ne
cessary to present a petition at the April
term of court, asking for viewers; their
report must be confirmed at next regular
term. So that if the voters want any
thing done, they should take action at
once.
For the purpose merely of calling at
tention to the matter, I propose the fol.
lowing :—Begin at the Quincy line and
ran a straight line due south to the road
is front of John Gehr's residence, and
then follow that road to the turnpike, and
take east branch of the Antietam from
the bridge to the Maryland line: All east
of — t boundary to have their
voting place at Rouzeraville, and all west
including the borough to vote in Waynes•
boro'. Or perhaps it would be more sat
isfactory to take the turnpike clear thro'
as the dividing line, both precints voting
in Waynesboro' as the more central place.

few who are not more or less in that kind
of dilemmit.

east of Upton, north of the turnpike.—
Another was discovered in Peters town
ship, about one mile from Williamson.
Mr. Conrad Hartman was in charge of
this one. The colored man has made dis
closures implicating some seven or eight
persons. The Nilson still was in a cellar,
the other in a little stone building. Green
man. bits been wonderfully - excited over
these discoveries. It- is said that one of
the establishments has been running for
eight months and the other for a year,
supplying the many who wanted it in
their respective neighborhoods. It is not
known whether the excitement at Green
castle isowing to joy over the suppression
of the vile traffic, or sorrow over the cut

NARROW ESCAPE.—Last Tresday the

than two years old succeeded in getting
hold of a small pair of pointed scissors.
with which he stumbled and fell upon the
floor, holding them in his hand. The
child struck his face upon the open points
of the blades the base of which was on
the floor, with so much force that one of
the points was bent like a fish book a
gainst the cheek bone just below the sock
et of the eye,both points having penetrated
the cheek to the bone, inflicting an ugly
wound. The escape of the eye from de

that it may be worth a trial : Take the
inside of red oak bark something near a
bushel and a half ; burn it in a large ket
tle, and have it from anything like grease.
When the bark has:burned to ashes, add
sufficient water to them and boil the
strength entirely out. Now let it Settle
until clear, then strain it through a fine
cloth into a v es sel that is clear of grease,
and boil it down again until it becomes a
bout the consistency of tar. When thus
prepared, spread the salve on a piece of
cloth the size of the lump or cancer, and
apply it to the effected part. It may burn
and be painful at first, but you must let
it remain as long as you can bear it, if
possible until it ceases being painful.—
When the cancer is killed it will turn
black and begin to fester around theedge
and keep festering into the centre until it
loosens itself and comes out. If, in ap
plying it, it is too severe, rub it with sweet
oil, which will allay the smarting.—E.T.

in the question of Temperance, we would
say, withal', good feeling that if you net
we must—that your son has violated the
law equally with Mr. Stoner and Minters
—can, be proven beyond a doubt, in tact
the evidence is at hand._ As citizens we
do not wish to interfere. But you pro.
ceed and we shall. MANY.
I wish it distinctly understood that I
am on the side of temperance openly and
above board, and further that I am not,
to be daterred from the discharge of duty
as a good citizen by threats to prosecute
my son. If he is as guilty as the parties
named, let him suffer the penalty. Do
not be ashamed to come out over your
own name. Bo manly and lot me know
who you are. Don't act tly► coward.
