For the Reporter.
Agricultural College, March 12.—
Glancing over the flourishing Repor-
ter of last week we were amused to see
a short item headed “Brushvalley beats
Pudingtown,” also giving us orders to
shoulder arms. And we did shoulder
arms. and marched over to Mr. F.
Decker’s with a firm step and steady
arm. Society called to order by
President Johnsonbaugh, and firing
began as rapid as if there bad not been
a shooting match in Brushvalle;. The
strings were so short that it was impes-
sible to measure. When the shooting
was over we turned into Mr. Deckar’s
fine new house and dined sumptuously.
As regards Mr. G. Hubler win.
ning the hog and other articles, that
is very easy to account for—-none of
the Uuion Marksmen being there. We
are very well acquainted with Mr. G.
Hubler; he used to attend shooting
matches up in our part of the country.
He could not have gained a hog up in
our country, nor a turkey, not even a
white rooster. When the Brushvalley
shooting match went into press, G. H.
never ex pected that it would ever reach
his old opponents. Now if Mr. Hubler
and his friends will propose to meet us
at Centre Hall, between now and the
first day of Apnl, we will shoot with
them for ten dollars. Please let us
hear from yon soon Gum. * The Socie-
ty adjourned to meet at the house of
Jno. Cobles, on Saturday next, at one
o'clock, tu shoot for turkeys.
P. 8. If Gum should find it conve-
nient to call up to Mr. Cobles we
should be very much pleased to see
him. Uxiox M. S.

were revolvers. The first and second

At his third shot the bullet grazed the
cheek of the Duke, causing a slight
wound. Montpensier's first shot missed,
his second slightly wounded the Prince

THE FALSE STEP.
A Heart Reuding § Story of Real
coo Life
The New York correspondent of
the Philadelphia Press tells this sad
story :
Through the guilty the honest must
suffer, and never was the fisct mere dis-
tressingly illustrated than in the late
arrest of a New York counterfeiter.
One of the best engravers in the coun.
try, if not in the world, was arrested
in his office, where everything went to
prove and where he unreservedly con-
fessed his guilt—~too completely bro-
ken, amaged and confused to attempt
a denial.—He was a fine, gentlemanly
looking man, though of late somewhat
dissipated, owing, probably, to the
wretched business in which he was em-
ployed. He had ‘werked for Tiffany
& Co., and for ‘the American Banking
Company, as a skillful, honest engra-
ver, and so up to within two weeks,
thought his family.
his disposition, and the great crime of
which he is surely gilty, he has been
a kind father and hushand, and never
éarried his sip into his home; neither
is'he what may be termed a bad man,
if we can reconcile these incongruities
with the fact that he was arrested for
the worst crime that an individual ean
practice against the Government. Bad
men tempted him with large profits
for his genius was invaluable to the
regular counterfeiters ; profits however
that he never realized, for once in their
and tuke his chances of immense gains
along with possible discovery, convie-
tion, and the State Prison,
After his arrest, in company with
the Chief of the Secret Service and two
subordinates, he was escorted to his
home a ruined, disgraced, guilty wretch
and the scene that ensued was indeed
heart-rending. Accustomed as were
the officers to painful family griefs,
brought gbout by their summary ar
rests, the usual sequences of home m-
nocence and tears was nothing new or
unlooked for ; but the family’s dispair
touched even them, and they did not
care to meet the gaze of the affrighted
woman who met them at the door, A
beautiful daughter of sixteen lifted a
white, horrified face beyond her moth-
er’s ; another of ten shrank against the
wall ; & bri ht, intelligent boy of six
stood transfixed in wonder ; and a smil-
ing infant of two confronted :he miser-
able futher and husband. The officers
needed not to search the house for tra-
ces of his evil deeds.’ Wife and chil-
dren were innocent, and the long prac-
ticed offic: rs knew it at a glance, The
unhappy wife sank into a chair.
Clasping her shaky hands one over the
other, and swaying to and fro, she
moaned the pityful ery to Heaven, “0,
God! why can’t [ die?” Hoar wet face
was livid beneath its tears, and shrank
and sharpened visibie, like a tace that
is dying. Tear after tear fell from her
staring eyes, and rolled down her pal-
lid cheeks to her lap. Never once
putting up her hand to wipe them
away, they lay idie and helpless on her
knee, and the look she turned on him
was utterly heart-broken, The young
daughter sobbed frantically, “O, fath-
er, futher, what have you done ?” Then
turning to the chief, “0, don't believe
it, sir; my father could not do it.” The
little girl clung to the officer's knee in
childish entreaty. “Don’t take my
father to prison ; please, please don’t I”
The boy hid under the bed, and the
baby crawled at his mother’s feet whim
pering in his fright unheeded.
The father looked upon the ruin he
had wrought==the grief he had brought
upon his loved ones, and sob after sob
broke from his bosom. Dashing down
his graver, he said, “God cursed me in
my genius, and I'll never jift it again”
He covered his face, and’ in Ais tears
those who loved ‘him hushed their
cries.
The poor wife found her strength
and voice at the piteous sight, and
came and put her hand gently on his
shoulder: “My poor, poor husband!
How could you bring us such sorrow,
aud yourself such dreadful misery? Lt
is Saturday night, and there is neither
food nor fire ; and they will take you
(0 —etO—==eit way from us, and Oh!
what shall I do for the children ? Who
will pity or help us after this?”
“I expected sowe money to night,”
said the criminal, taking from his pock-
et a torn half dollar, “thisis all I have;
igh get a little bread for them
waight” He put it in ber band, but

dren starving! O God what have I
dove that I must suffer so!”
Here the chief stepped forward: “You
shall vot suffer; I'll see, madam, that
you and your children are made com-
fortable.”
She lifted her streaming eves. “I
am #0 full of trouble I don't know how
to thavk you; heis guilty, guilty, but
~=my husband.”
“Yes,” burst out the prisoner; “I am
guilty ; you have the presses plates
everything, and knowit; but before
Almighty God they are iunocent ; they
know nothing of it.”
“Iam perfectly well aware of it.”
said the chief, and as it was painful to
all, they departed with the prisoner,
leaving the desolate home to its tears
and anguish,
If ever mortal grief was written on
a woman's face, it was stamped on the
ghastly features of the counterfeiter’s
wife, when she looked on the weeping
children; ho reproach —only “how
could you, how could you" I have
seen the law forced into many Juving
homes, where its head, by its recent
crimes, brought sudden woe, but never
did I witness 30 harrowing a scene as
this miserable engraver's dwelling.
She kept twisting her fingers together,
aud sobbing and moaning “to-morrow
is Sunday ; oh, what a Sabbath for me,
my children, my husband!”
She was a lady by education, birth
and association, and this blow struck
her to the earth. She could endure
and conceal poverty, but this prison
crime the world mast know, and the
horrible grief aud shame were hers to
bear as best she might. The State
Prison surely awaits the father, and
death the mother—if the face she car-
ried to his cell that morning was an
index to the sufferings within, And
the bright eyed boy, the crawling baby,
aud the beautiful girls, what will be-
come of then? The late counterfeit
uprooting tore a guiltless womans heart
asunder, and let it be a warning to
other wen who have a fine devoted
family to peril in their disgrace aad

A Subterranean Voyage.
The Story of a West Virgina Plow
man—He Breaks Through the Crust
of the Earth—Fails into a Subterra-
nean River—Siz Miles in Forty=
Eight Hours.
When we were publishing a paper
in Lewisburg, West Virginia, several
years ago, a very singular accident be-
fel a young man there which we narra
ted briefly at the time. A few days
ago we chanced to meet him here in
ture at our request. It occurred on
the farm of General A. W. G. Davis,
in Greenbrier county, in 1856. We
give his story in his own words, as near
as we can recollect them.
“I was ploughing on Gen. Davis’
farm in 1856, said he unsuspicious of
being on’ insecure ground, when sud-
denly the earth seemed to fall beneath
me. I saw the horses descending, but
was too frightened to let go the plough
handles. The pitch of the horses with
the earth gave my fall an impetus, and
somehow I caught the mane of one of
them in my fall, and so held on in.
stinetively. = What I thought when
falling I can-hardly tell. ‘Atany rate,
I did some rapid thinking. When I
landed I fell on the horse whose mane
I had hold of, and althoagh the horse
I was merely
stunned and confused. On recovering
myself I looked up, and the hole
through which I had fallen looked so
small I concluded I had fallen full 150
feet. My first thought was to call for
aid, but I instantly recalled the fact
that I was at least a mile from Gen.
Davis’ house, and that there was not
the remotest probability that any one

had brought out my dinner with me,

own mind, I heard the rush of water
near at hand, and it occurred to me
that I must have fallen upon the bed
of Sinking ereek, which as you know,
falls into the earth above Frankfort,
and does not come out but onge till it
reaches the bauks of the Greenbrier
river. To say where I was, or to at-
tewpt to follow the subterranean pas-
sage, was the next question. I some
times took the teams to my own tenant

stables, and therefore wight not be
missed for days; so I determined to
follow the stream. I waded in it, and,
judging from its depth of from one to
three feet, I concluded it must be the
indentical Sinking creek spoken of.
Leaving my dead companion behind
me, 1 followed the stream.—For the
most part I bad pretty easy work of it,
but sometimes I came to a deep place,
where [ was forced to swim for a con-
siderable distance; agaln was often

sage I was following. The occasional
ripppling of the waters was au inex-
pressible dear sound to my ears. Day
and night were the same to me. At
last, wearied with my efforts, T laid
down on & comparatively dry rock to
rest, and must have slept for hours.
When I awoke again I took to the wa
ter, carefully ascertaining which ‘way
it ran, 80 a8 not to lose my steps. It
seemed to me that the farther I went
the more dificult progress became.
When I had gone perhaps a mile, I!
came to a place where the arch way nar
rowed so much that I had to erawl on
my hands and knees in the water,
looked for. I tried either bank of the
swim under water for a considerable |
distance’ but the distance before me
was unknown, and I balted long be
fore making the dangerous venture.
At last [ coucluded that my fate was
equally doubtful in returning as in| me
proceeding, and plunged boldly inte
the current, and soon found that it was
soswift in its confined passage that
I only needed to hold my breath to
go through. In the course of twenty
or thirty feet I again got my head

ing spell. Again the archway abswve

along comparatively rapidly, keeping
my hands outstreached to prevent my
running against the jageed rocks.
Wearied out, I again laid down and
slept soundly in my wet clothes.
On awakening, [ pursued my coarse
down the subterranean stream, and at
last in the long distance ahead, saw a
glimmer that looked very bright in the
darkness J was then shut in. Near
ing this, I found that it did not in-
crease in brightness; and when I had
gone perhabs a mile, I came to anoth-
er blace where my path narrowed to
the very tunnel filled by the water.
My case was now become more desper-
ate. I could not possibly retrace my
steps, so I submitted myself to the cur
rent, and was immeasurably overjoyed
to find myself rapidly swept into day-
light, Exhausted and half drowned,
I crept out upon the land and was not
long in recognizing the objects about
me. I had come out into the Green:
brier river, as [ knew from the famil-
iar look of Gen. Davis’ mil on the
bank. On reaching home I found that
[ had been over forty-eight hours in
making my perilous journey of six
miles underground. ;
The hole where this man went
through is now fenced round. On
listening one can plainly hear the rush
of water below. and a stone thrown
down will sometimes be heard to splash
in the stream. —Muskegan ( Mich) En-|
