Tbe lo older children of Mr. Morgan are by a former busband, aud consist of a boy and girl. It ap - pfars that on Ihe evening of the shoot ing Mr. Morgan attended Ibe lodge of the Knights of Tythias in Wicouisco, reluming home in company with a neighbor about 10 o'clock. A few min utes after Le entered the bouse tbe re port of a pistol was heard. Mr. John Murphy, living two door east, in a very few moments reached the scene, and was told by Mr. Morgan that bis step son, Hampton Miller, had shot him. The painful news spread rapidly, and Ibe bouse was soon besieged with ex cited people. Drs. Maurer and Be Veny, of Williamstowo, held a consul tation tbe next moruing, aud it was tbeir opinion that tbe unfortunate man eould net long survive. Before Squire Israel, Mr. Morgan made the following sworn statement : " I came bume Iroui tbe lodge in company with Alfred Wal lace ; 1 went to my valise, found it cpeo i 1 C -1 C 1 ... 1.1... .... 1 .

The lat place peoplo look for coun terfeit money to come from is a jail or prison-house, to which counterfeiters are sent when caught in their unlawful work. A despatch from Columbus, Ohio, sent last Sunday, relates tbe al most marvelous intelligence, of the issue of eounterfen coin from tbe peni tentiary at that place, as follows : For some time counteifeit five rent, pieces or nickels have become very common here, and nntil to-day the piiblio knew nothing as to where they csmo from. To day a Sunday .Vetr reporter, after patient investigation, h.sj learned tbe particulars of what has de-! veloped into a first class sensation. ! These bogus coils have bem traced tot J"ung on . . 1 1. o t of I nlnnel Ir. lnnls. warden of the penitentiary. Lpon being interrogated, tbe child said that he bad been furnished tbe coin by cer tain pris mer to purchase tobacco for them. This led to an investigation, snd it now turns out that tbe making of these nickels has been going on in the penitentiary without discovery. Tbe ; moulds for the coia were made by pris oners, aud Ibe metal used was amalgam used in plating harness in tbe harness shop. Love, Murder and tbe Cal lows. In St. Louis a man uamtd King con ceived a deep affection for a Mrs. Dora Boemser, tbe wife of a living husband. He was not content to mingle in the 1 society of tbe object of bis love and ber husband. He became infatuated and endeavored to persuade Ihe woman to elope with hitn. On her persistent refusal to do so and marry bim, be shot ber. She lingered a few days from the effects of tbe wound, and died. He was arrested on tbe charge nf murder, and found guilty, and sentecced in a St. Louis court, oo the 27th ult., for that crime. It is pronounced one of the most remarkable cases of infatua tion on the court records in this coun try. Xew Advertisement. NOTICE.
