"Washington, Gn., Dccentlicr 24.???[Special.]
A.- there seems to I.c'a good deal of interest
taken in the disposition oY the confederate
treasure-train the past week among the news-
pajiers, and this place feeing the point at
which the money was scattered, I have eon-
eluded to give some history of the matter as
lms been told me hy persons who guarded it
while it was in this place. In April, 1865,
there came to this place between
eight and twelve wagon loads of
money. About four hundred thousand dol
lars of this belonged to a bank in Richmond,
and was gdld, principally $3) pieces, and was
not bullion, as some have stated. It was put
in the old Washington bank building, which
is now occupied by General Heard as a dwell
ing. at which place Mr. Davis stopped while
in this place. This^rold was followed up hy
the hank officers from Richmond
after :t had been here some time.
These officers put it into .wagons and
started back to Richmond. Near Danburg, a
village twelve miles north of here, the train
was roblJed by a band of straggling cavalry
men. It is said that some of those cavalry
men pulled off their drawers, tied them at
the bottom, filled them with gold and
slung them across their saddles. When the
news reached here of the robbery, a party of
men, now citizens of this place, went in pur
suit and regained" $125,000 of the
stolen money. It was brought
hack to this place and put in the same old
bunk, and was finally turned over to a federal
officer, Wilde, and lie shipped the money to
Washington city, I think. In u house near
by where the robbery took place was a box of
rich jewels given to Mr. Davis hy citizens of
Richmond to use as a last resort in maintain
ing tlie confederacy. It was hid in the garret
of the house, and was jiointcdout ton federal
officer hy a negro. It is sa.d this officer took
charge of these jewels, and this is the. las.
that has ever been heard of tlieju. One of
the men who went in pursuit of the robbers
found $112,000 in gold laying in a mud hole
in a field near the place the wagons were
robbed.
As to the confederate part of the money,
when it ethnic to this place, two wagon loads
of it (sixteen boxes) was placed in the Ute
stairs of a store on the west side of the pub
lic square in this town and a guard
stationed over it by Major Moses, who paid
the men $10 a day for guarding it. The boxes
weighed about 100 pounds each, part of them
contained silver coin, dollars, halves and.
quarters, ami jsirt contained silver huRion,
and the whole amount is estimated to he
$35,000 or $10,000. This was shipped to Augus-
t.rbv Major Moses, and the lust account heard
of it, it was put in a house on Rroad street in
that city. A lot of silver bullion was put in
a vault under u store on the south side of the
public square. It was understood that a
tiarty of soldiers had found out where it was
hidand were going to raid it, so it was taken
out and distributed among members of the
Irvin artillery. These men were put upon
their honor to take charge of it. They kept
it for a week or so, when they took it to Au
gusta one Sunday evening and tried todeposit
it in the Georgia railroad hank, but Judge
King refused to let it stay there, and i
was brought back to this place hy these men.
Then it wus shipped to Augusta again, and
some parties went down to Augusta to inquire
wlint had become of it, but could get no satis
factory answer; one of the party being told
that the lust seen of it, it was being kicked
around some gentleman???s yard.
Four wagon loads of tnis money was seen
camping in a pine thicket, guarded by less
than a half dozen men, aiiout one mile
from town, and three wagon loads, when
last heard of, were camping
a mile and a half south of town at a mineral
spring guarded hy three or four confederate
soldiers. A carpenter???s chest filled, was seen
f ling from one private residence, occupied
y confederate officers, to another part of the
town, a negro mun being paid four dollars to
transport it in a wagpn, who said it took
twelve men to put the chest in the wagon.
"What ever became of the cliest ami the seven
wagon loads that were ramping out near the
town remains a mystery that remains to
lie accounted for. Two men were seen to fish
two carpet sacks of gold out of the tan yard
branch near the town one night, hut who they
were or where they went is unknown.
Maxwell's statement about the wagons
being robbed occurring within a mile or so of
Washington is a mistake, as it took place ten
or fifteen miles from town, near the Lincoln
line, and the money was gold coin and not
silver bars, as he states, and belonged to the
Virginia oank and not to tke confederacy.
Mr. Maxwell???s memory is certainly lit
fault. The account of a colored
barber being whipped nearly to death to lie
made told where some of this gold was hid,
is a mistake. The barber was hung up by the
thumbs, but he was uot whipped.BfTlie party
of men that went from here to built up the
robbed Virginia gold were paid ten per cent
on all they collected. They collected about
$135,0t.i0. 'General K. 1*. Alexander organized
a party to hunt up this same gold, but when
they arrived at the place of robbery, the first
party ot ten or fifteen that had gone out
after it, had collected all that could be found,
uijil Alexander???s party collected mine of it.
Kvervihing was in such a torn-up state at the
time*of this gold robbery, and so many per
sons having something to do with the money,
that, it is hard to fiud two accounts of it that
will tally. The above is as about near correct
as any. 'That some people feathered their
nest with the Virginia and confederate gold,
there can be no (build.

Yesterday afternoon at one o'clock the long
and severe illness of Mrs. George T. Barnes termi
nated by her death at the residence of her husband
on upper Greene street. For months past it had
been evident to her family and friends that her
days among them were numbered: aud the painful
and alarming symptoms developed by the prog
ress of the disease would have been more swift and
emphatic in their warning to those about her had
they not been accompanied by a calm, patient and
uncomplaining endurance which robbed suffering
of its terrors and softened the shadows of approach
ing death. And even now, when told that she is
gone, words fail to convey a realization of what has
happened in her home???so sweetly seems the sleep
where surcease has silenced all of suffering.

Who Need Licenses t

Do our pastors need licensed saloons to aid them
iu thcirrvork?
Are they a help to any Sunday school superin
tendent, or the teacher of any class?
Do the school committee deem them a good means
of educating the young?
Are they fit places for our youth and young men?
Will they increase the value of real estate, even
of that where they are located?
Does the laboring man need such a place of de
posit for his hard-earned and scanty wages?
Do the tried and tempted ones need the licensed
saloon as a perpetual test of their power to resist
temptation? 1*1.
Do the wives and children of the unfortunate
drunkard need it to make their lives happier?
Does the victim of appetite need a legalized place
at which to gratify this insane thirst?
Does the occasional drinker, who has any self
respect, need any one of the places ever licensed in
towm?
Do those who are the leaders in society, the men
of wealth and influence, need the licensed saloons
and bar-rooms?
Will they lead the men who are licensed to sell,
to purer lives, to more noble impulses, to more gen
erous and charitable actions?
Has anybody a right to grant a license to one man
to injure others by wholesale?

'.Mr. Scoville asked, ???Doyou agree with the last

A New England View of It.
Providence Journal.
The Atlanta Constitution is preaching with an
emphasis based upon statistics, the duty of the
south to engage in manufactures, while othersouth-
em papers are, with equal vehemence, urging upon
their constituents the necessity of increasing the
variety of their farm products, that is, of making
their own corn and ba-.??on. Both are right. There
arc reasons why sterile New England is 10-day rich
er than the fertile south: the north has umleistood,
the south is beginning to understand them.
The wealth of tlie south is $153 per- capita:
that of New England is $661 per capita. Now,
there is no question that the south should manu
facture to a greater extent than it does, but it will
make a great mistake if it thinks that it is to become
prosperous, as New England is, simply by matiufae-
turcs. It is the untiring industry, the strict econ
omy in business, the inventive genius, the trade,
the commerce, the making industries which have
given New England her financial prcdomlncnee.
With the greater natural advantages of the south,
she should, as doubtless she will, reduce the dis
crepancy between the two sections in this regard.
At any rate it is a symptom of improvement when
she proposes to do so by free labor, and sustaining
democratic institutions,

that in this world of adulterated medicines there is
one compound that proves aud does all it advertises
to do, and more. Four years ago I had a slight
chock of palsy, which unnerved me to such an ex
tent that the least excitement wouW make me shake
like the ague. Last May I was induced to try Hop
Bitters.. I used one bottle, but did not see any
change; another did so change my nerves that they
are now as steady as they ever were. It used to take
both hands to write, but now my good right hand

??? ???I paid no attention to the letter at all.???
continued tbe beauty, ???it was so awfully,
utterly absurd.???
???Is there any truth in the story, Miss Mon
tague,??? "asked the reporter, ???about your hus
band, Paul Allen, having put you up as a
stake against $10 in a game of poker with Bob
by Newcomb, the minstrel????
???How ridiculous,??? laughed the beauty.
???Why, of course there is no truth in it. The
two men don???t know each other. I married
Mr. Allen in San Francisco in 1877, was sep
arated from him in 1878, because he loved
the gaming table better than he did me, and
then I went to New York, where I played
???Josephine??? in Pinafore. Mr. Newcomb play
ed ???Ralph Rakcstraw??? in the same company.
It was then that the falsehood was manufac
tured by some malicious story-teller*. Just
as if such a thing could be. And putting me
up against $10 too! How very funny. Accord
ing to that 1 had no ???say??? in the matter at all.
No, sir; the whole thing is pure fiction.???

???Now, that???s too,too bad,??? replied the beau
ty. in a deprecating tone. "Of course I didn???t.
What awfully awful stories the papers do tell,
to be sure. It's awful.??? ???Then what about
tlie third street broker of this city,??? persisted
tlie newsman, ???who is so desperately in love
with you????
The fairenchantrcss smiled roguishly. ???I???

fall in love with me. Let me see, I know

???Did you ever se?? the Minersville beauty
who was your rival at the time the engage
ment was made????
???Oh, yes,??? was the reply. ???Stie was rather
pretty, but then her feet were big, and she
was awkward. Now, you know I prasess tlie
exact symmetry ??t-f form and feature. Onoe
the lcmgtli of the chin, the length of the nose,
twice the circumference of the wrist, the size
of the neck, and all that sort of thing, you
girl know. The Minersville was not a profes
sional artiste like myself, and would uot suit
Mr. Forepaugh at all. You know I expect to
have a theatrical company of my own, after I
conclude my engagement with Mr. Fore
paugh next season.???
???Then you will give up being a beauty on a
high backed car, and breaking hearts by the
bushel as you travel through the land????
"Yes,??? replied Miss Montague, witli a sigh,
???I only took the position for the excitement.
I liked it very much, but then you know the
legitimate drama is my forte, and if I don???t
marry somebody with plenty of money, I'll
carry out my determination in the fall of

Then the beauty said good-bye, and the re
porter with a'decided feeling of emptiness
aboutliis heart, said farewell, and made his
way into the prosaic street again.
