N tricky fellow
Perhaps there never was a period in
ancient or modern times, that offered a
like occasion for the possession of such
wondrous wealth, considering the slight
risk run, and the small amount of labor
performed in itsachievment. Not even
Synbad the Sailor, in his most success
ful voyages, even met with such thril
ling adventures as fell to the lot of these
two men.
Between nine and ten o’clock they
entered the Treasury building by a
back window, and taking the “cuts”
from the denomination of five dollars to
one thousand dollars, they placed them
on the press and printed on a kind of
thick, white paper, with no impression
on the back of the bills. There was no
more difficulty in printing them than
there would have been in printing a
common business card. After dividing
the funds and washing the “cuts,” and
placing them in their proper places,
they left the house in the way they en
tered it, and going to their respective
abodes, no doubt in the highest glee of
exhilarity, for at that time Confederate
bonds were equivalent to gold and sil
ver, and in some of the cotton States
commanded a premium.
The issue was then being signed by
young ladies, and there was more than
a hundred so employed. Elam had a
lady acquaintance or two in this depart
ment, and by this means he had his
and his partner’s bonds signed. After
remaining a few days, he and one of
the young ladies went on a visit to
Lynchburg, little dreaming of the de
nouement which was so shortly to fol
low.
“Napoleon,” feeling richer than his
namesake, took one of the young ladies
to a jewelry store and bought her an
outfit of jewelry, tendering a hundred
dollar bill in payment, for which he re
ceived in change about sixty dollars
mostly in gold and silver. Next door
be purchased, in a drygoods house, a
silk dress and other articles, and here
tendering another hundred dollar bill.
Late that evening the two merchants
happened to come out on the pavement
at the saute time, and one spoke to the
other in rclatiuu to business affairs.
The jewelry merchant said that times
letters of administration, j were flush, and that lie. had received a
hundred dollar bill of the new currency.
The dry goods merchants said lie too
had taken in one of the same denomi
nation. After a short parley, describ
ing (lie person who had passed the bills,
the drygoods merchant felt convinced
that something was wrong. He took
the bills to the Treasury and submitted
them to the scrutiny of the Superinten
dent, who examined and pronounced
them genuine.
But here I must mention the fact
that on the morning after the printing
of these bonds, the paper on which they
were printed was missed by the Super
intendent, and a notice appeared in the
papers stating that this material was mis
sing. but there seemed to be no suspic
ion that money had been issued.
The fact that Elam had so uncere
moniously left his employment, taken in
connection with developing circumstan
ces. caused the authorities to be on the
alert. Detectives were employed to fer
ret out this matter, and if possible bring
the guilty parties to punishment. Af
ter using all the facts communicated to
them iu furthering their object, they de
cided to make a bolder move, and ar
rested the so-called “Napoleon. ’ He
appeared to be overcome with tremor as
the detectives and police approached
him. Having many facts of his guilt
in their possession, they at once accused
him of his crime.
Aghast and trembling, he made a full
confession, criminating his partner and
giving the facts in detail. He was then
incarcerated and a dispatch sent to
.Lynchburg for the arrest of Elam, who
was found in all the enjoyment that
wealth could bestow. After the arrest
of Elam and his fair companion, ftiey
were hurredly taken to Richmond; but
lie alone was imprisoned-. No prosecu
tion was brought against the young la-

Taking the Slack Veil—Ceremony at
St. Catherine’s Convent.
The old rite eO full of mysterious awe
to the lightest heart, the voluntary giv
ing up of the bright, busy world and
its throbbing life, to enter,whattoaome
seems a living tomb, to others a fore
taste of eternal tranquility, took place
at St. Catherine’s Convent, in New
York, on Tuesday. The Sun says:
Precisely at nine the nuns e itered the
chapel in procession, headed by one
bearing the processional cross. Slowly
they entered,'two by two, to the music
of the Veni Creator thrilling in organ
notes and sweet female voices from the
gallery above. Their dresses were all
black and flowed in ample trains behind
them. A white circular mantle, reach
ing below the knees, almost covered
this black robe. Their graceful black
veils floated above the white mantles.
Each nun bore in her hand a lighted
candle, surrounded by a cut paper bo-
beche. Slowly they filed into their
stalls, conducting the candidate to a
seat and prie dieu placed before a rich
carpet which had been spread on the
marble tiles in front of the altar rails.
In the meantime the celebrant, Father
dowry, the deacon, and acolytes with
holy water and censer, had entered from
the sacristy door. At the conclusion of
the hymn the white-veiled novice who
was to become a nun arose from her
knees, and, conducted by the Mother
Superior and her assistant, approached
the altar and made the demand. “IV hat
do you demand, my daughter ?” said
Father dowry. The candidate an
swered in low but audible tones: “I
demand the mercy of God, the society
of the religious of our Lady of Mercy,
and to live the rest of my days under
their rule.” Father dowry delivered
a short address on the duty and beauty
of the life she had demanded and was
about to enter, and then proceeded to
celebrate a low mass. Miss McQuate and
her attendant Sister receiving holy com
munion. After the sacrament the can
didate and Mother Superior again ap
proached the altar rail, aud the black
veil being spread over her head the
white one was withdrawn from beneath,
and the final vow was pronounced by
the new nun. Immediately the notes
of the Te Deuin swelled out from the
organ loft, and then followed the beau
tiful ceremony of the prostration, sym
bolizing the death to the world of the
religious The new-made Sister, Mary
Liguori, aud her two attendants turned
and retraced their steps until they
reached the lower edge of the carpet.
Her candle was taken from her hand by
the Mother Superior, and then the fair,
slender, and beautiful girl, after stand
ing a few minutes, prostrated herself,
face downward, on the carpet, with a
quickness and simple grace of move
ment impossible to describe. Belore
the hyum was finished the priest and
his assistants had retired from the altar,
and just before its close Mother Supe
rior advanced, raised Sister Mary Li-
guori from her prostrate attitude, and
gave her on each cheek the kiss ol the
Sisterhood. She then led her to the
stalls, and while the nuns chanted their
office the kiss was bestowed by each
Sister on the new-made nun. Then,
still chanting, they formed their pro
cession and defiled slowly out ot the
chapel, leading their new-made sister
with them.:
The Grekt Battle Began.
Connecticut Strikes the Key Note of the
Coming Contest—Glorious Action of the ■
Democratic State Convention—A
Fight Against Corruption aud
Catsarism.
Hartford, February 19. 1873.
The Democratic State Convention met
iu this city to-day. aud was largely at
tended. Colonel Dwight Morris of
Bridgeport, formerly a Republican, was
appointed temporary Chairman, aud af
terward made permanent Chairman of
the Convention.
The convention then nominated
Charles R. Ingersoll of New Haven, for
governor, by a rising vote aud unani
mously; George G. Still of Hartford,
a Liberal Republican, was nominated by
acclamation for Lieutenant. Governor;
Martin II. Sanger of Canterbury for
Secretary of State, by ballot; Wm. E.
Raymond of New Canaan, a Liberal Re
publican, for Treasurer by acclamation,
and Dr. A. R. Goodrich of Vernon, for
Comptroller.
The New Haven delegation, led by
James Gallagher took part in the action
of the convention, but on all questions
where rising votes were call^l for, in
cluding the nomination of candidates,
the rival delegates from that city re
frained from voting.
Resolutions were passed declaringthe
Democratic party based on the princi
ples of the Constitution declared at Cin
cinnati and Baltimore; arraigning the
Administration for the use of the par
doning power in the interest of ballot-
box stuffing, for striking down a faith
ful Cabinet officer to please a corrupt
ring and retaining one who pays to
greedy cormorants money' belonging to
the people, for using the army to crush
the rights of States; arraigniug the
Vice-President for complicity with the
Credit Mobilier; arraigning the Repub
lican party for squandering the public
lands aud for corruption in elections;
denouncing the interference of Federal
officeholders, from the Presidet down
in political affairs belonging to the
States, and the creating of State Legis
latures by Executive decree; welcom
ing Spain to the sisterhood of Repub
lics, believing freedom to Cuba would
be the result: eulogizing Horace Gree
ley. and lamenting his death; denounc
ing the repeal or tlie law.; de
manding further legislation to protect
labor and laboring children, and to se
cure just advantages of education to the
poor; favoring the establishment of a
Bureau of Labor statistics iu the State,
and favoring a constitutional conven
tion.
There was unanimity on the passage
of the resolutions and in the nomina
tions. The Committee on Credentials
held a long session upon the double del
egation from New Haven, and failed to
agree on a report. Both delegations
acted in the convention. Mr. Galla
gher was satisfied with this, and his
friends say there will be no more trouble
in New Haven over the organization.
A majority of 3.000 is promised there
for the ticket. There are two Liberal
Republicans on it—the Lieutenant-Gov
ernor and Treasurer. The resolution
for free Cuba was passed unanimously
in the committee and in the convention
with cheers. The heart of the people
is with it. There is this evening the
fullest confidence that the ticket will be
elected, Republicans in many cases con
ceding this.

pure, and the health of the system will follow.
Grateful thousands proclaim Vinegar Hit
ters the most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained
the sinking system.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking ill
the system of so many thousands, are effectually de
stroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiol
ogist: There is scarcely an individual upon the face of tk#
earth whose body is exempt from tlie presence of worms*
It is not upon ihe healthy elements of the body that
worms exist, but noon the diseased humors and slimy
deposits that breed these living monsters of disease;
No system of Medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmle-
itics, will free the system from worms like these Bit
ters.

by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, ana
other abdominal viscera. There are always more or lead
obstructions of the liver, a weakness and irritable state
of the stomach, and great torpor of the bowels, being
clogged up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat
ment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence npo*
these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is
no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walk***#

dark colored viscid matter with which the bowels ar4
loaded, at the same fnne stimulating the secretions of
the liver, and generally restoring tlA healthy function*
