right." One of the two (R or 0.) spoke
efabolifieturing Coin and said they two

but meantime witness sent Herron to
Slick% and he returned to Ws alone; he
was not in, but witnesi called him from a .
blacksmith shop across the street; asked If
Herron had got any dimes of him; he said
no; he was sorry he could not accommo

when a person is not convicted as when he

The jury in the case of Slick brought in

of five and a halthotirs, aiid the prisoner
was discharged by.proclamation ; Judge
McCandless remarldrigthat he had made
a narrow escape; he 'had tdo much coun
terfeit money about and should be more
careful in future.
Patrick Ponder related the circumstances
of the arrest and search of defendant, oor.
roborating the other officers.
Joseph S. Lare was called as an expert
and pronounced the $2 bill found in de•
Pendant's drawer counterfeit, explaining
the difference between it and the genuine .
He also examined the coin passed upon
Newcomer, and pronounced it bad; also
some of that found in defendant's store.
Mr. Carnahan produced the record of
11. S. Commissioner Sproul, which allowed
that the warrant was issued on May 20th,
and the defendant brought before him on
the 21st of May; •
Mr. Noon opened the case for the de.
fence in a brief speech, dwelling upon the
previous good character of defendant, the
tact that no witnesses from Oambria coun
ty had been called to testify that he had
passed counterfeit money upon them and
the bad character of Newcomer. They
woad show by defendant's clerks that
counterfeit money had been taken at his
store, and that he bad no guilty know.
ledge when he passed the coin.
The following testimony for the defence
was now elicited :
Balser Myers testified to defendant's
good character for honesty. He had waits
ed in the store for defendant; the money
was kept in the lid of a fig box in a large
drawer ander the counter. Had seen a
counterfeit $2 bill on the State Bank of
Ohio, in another drawer where he kept
his “scrip."
John Geisse, of Johnstown, also gave
defendant a good character for honesty.--
Witness did a large business, had several
stores tb ough the country and sometimes
took counterfeit money; if his place was
searched they might find bad money. Saw
Newcomer in Johnstown; having heard
he had Western lands for sale, went to see
him; he said he had 1280 acres of land, 2i
miles from St. Paul, Minnesota, which he
would sell for good pay at $5 an acre, re
serving a still house and some tenements.
He wanted to sell, as he was going to lawita
zerland to get a fortune left him by his
grandfather; said his name was Hershey,
from Lancaster county; offered him $2400
cash, $2OOO next April and $2,000 a year
after that. Newcomer said the offer was fair
and he would let him have it. Witness
said they would go and have an agreement
drawn Newcomer said his deed was in
Lai:101;0Si Met hire's day or two
after and asked if he had got his deed yet;
he said he lied sent for it, and when it came
witness was his man. There was no dim.
greement Sheet 'the hand money and no
dispute about the payments.
Robert Watson, of this pity, had known
defendant about fifteen yeers; had dealt
with him Jor some time; his general
character for _honesty was excellent. Wit
ness frequently took bad money in his
business.
•
Henry Walters testtfted .that, notwith
standing the utmost precautiori,eounterfeit
money was sometime. taken at his store,
paper and coin.
On cross azamination, witness said the
seeme4 ell alike; he would not bo
likely to takeTri so much !whey of
description at one time. Have never teen
any card , dlaying going oni n Gouchinour's
house,
Wm. McPherson also occasionally took
bad money in his business.
S. B. MeClormick, of Johnstown, tes
tified to defepdant's good. character for
honesty.
Oottrt adjourned until eight - rebook on
Saturday morning.
How TliE TROOPS ARE PAID.- The lam
required to pay a regiment, officers in
eluded, for three months' service, is not
far short of $40,000. The sum to be ras

Colonel, $654; Lieutenant Colonel, $682;
Major, ;626; Captain, $885; First
,Lieus

Surgeon, $625; Adjutant, $879; Quarter
master, $5OB.
This commutes everything Into money,
Including the cost of servants, horses and
rations. Commissioned officers cannot
always understand this, and are invariably

expected. Nonhcommistioned officers and
