Hudson City, N. J., with ihe intention of pro
curing such evidence as abonld. enable him to
obtain the property. He expected ready as
sistance from two relations, James Foley and
Edward Foley. They concocted a scheme, if it
was not planned indeed before the demise of
Mrs. May, to prove a marriage between her and
Michael May. They approached Justice Maires
with a proposition ottering him SI, OOO to make
out a certificate of marriage. Mr. Maires re
fused to have anything to do with them, telling
them thafc even ii they succeeded in their vil
lanons scheme they could not get the cer
tificate recorded. To this they replied “ that
they bnd fixed that.” A certificate was taken
to the County Clerk’s office by Michael May
and Edward Foley some time in Jane, 1868,
while the clerks were out, and a boy, Samuel'
Dixon, was the only person in charge. This
certificate was signed “ George W. Dillowav,
Justice of the Peace,*! and was dated on the 3d
of May, 1866. The two men easily persuaded
the boy to record Ihe certificate at a date cor
responding with the date of the certificate,
namely, in May, 1866. So far the work was
well done, aud a certified copy of the marriage
certificate was soon issued to them by Mr. Geo.
W. Cassidy, the County Clerk, who was wholly
ignorant of the conduct of his employee.—
VVhou the certificate was presented In Augusta,
Ga., it was taken into court by Mr. Maher, the
brother of Mrs. May, to test its genuineness.
May demanded of the court that a commission
be sent to Hudson City to investigate the al
leged marriage, but it wae subsequently agreed
between the attorneys that interrogatories
should be sent to New Jersey. These inter
rogatories were sent to the two brothers Fo
ley, and they made large offers to J. H. Lippin
eott, Esq., and Justice Maires to make out
proper answers b'om descriptions sent by May.
These offers wfre rejected. Mr. James H.
Donnelly of Hndson City, who, siuce the ex
ploit, has fled, fell it with their plans, made out
the answers purporting to beamier oath of the
witnesses before Justice Ilesslon, of Bayonne,
and sent the package back to Aujgssta. May
obtained immediate possession of the property
by the aid of these papers, aud soon realized a
considerable amount of money by selling lots
from tbe estate.
Justice Maires, of Hudson City, being con
vinced that a villanous fraud was being perpe
trated, sent information of the facts in his pos
session to the Augusta relatives, and measures
were at once takeu to arrest the conspirators.
May and Uppincott got wind of tbo proposed
arrest, and made good their escape. The two
brothers Foley were arrested, indicted'at the
October term of the Hudson County Court,
and tried at the present term.
The result of the trial is astonishing, when
the porilivenose of the proof against Ihe pris
oners is taken into account, and when it is ob
served that ihe couusel for the defense brought
no evidence to upset the clear testimony of
the witnesses for the State. Mr. Dilloway
swore positively that he uever married the
couple as alleged, and that the signature at
tached to the certificate was, forged. Being
asked whether he had not married so many
couples that he might possibly have forgotten
the fact of this marriage, lie replied that he
could not have forgotten it, for ho h id married
hut one couple in all his life. The signature of
Mr. Hesslon, before whom the statements
made in answer to the interrogatories were
said to have been made, was also proved to be
a forgery by the testimony of his widow, who
testified that at the date affixed to the papers
Mr. Hesslon was in a dying condition, and had
not for months been able to lift a pen. Yet, in
sane of the facts, tbe jury, among whom were
a relative of the prisoners anil several of their
friends , disagreed, and scut notice to Judge
Randolph yesterday morning, after seventeen
hours’ deliberation, that they were unable to
agree. Judge Randolph promptly weut to the
Court House, and, on receiving their answer,
rebuked them in strong terms, denouncing
their conduct as a disgrace to the Slate of New
Jerseg. The witnesses were informed that a
new trial would be ordered.

Reinterment of the Remains of J. Wilkes
Booth at Baltimore—Soene at the Un
dertaker's.
Baltimore, February 16.
The remains of John Wilkes Booth, the as
sassin, were removed from Washington on Mon
day afternoon, and arrived here on the same
evening. An order was obtaiued Monday morn
ing, aud J. 0. Weaver, a well known under
taker, proceeded at once to Washington and
disinterred the remains. They were contained
in a. plain pine box. two Government blankets
being wrapped about the person. The original
bix, which was much decayed, having been rot
ted by dampness, was exchanged lor a pluiu
coffin.
The remains were brought hare as secretly ns
possible, and deposited at the wareroom of Mr.
Weaver. It became noised about that his body
was here, and at an early hour this morning
crowds of people began to assemble, all anxious
to get a glimpse of the last mortal remains of
the assassin. All were denied admission, how
ever, until about 3, p. m., when the box was
again opened and the body, or rather skeleton,
was transferred to a splendid metallic coffin.
There was hnt little of the remains left, the
flesh having all disappeared, leaving nought but
a mass of blackened bones. Upon one foot was
au old array shoe, and. upon the other a boot
Cut open upon the top. This covered the left
foot, the leg having been broken in bis leap
from the stage-box of the theatre after he had
assassinated President Lincoln. The remain
der of his dress consisted of a rongb brown
coat, black pants and vest, all of which were
rotten and decayed. The hair all remained,
and the silken curls of glossy black reminded
one of tbe handsome face which people once so
much admired, but the intelligent face was
gone. During the afternoon hundreds of people
visited the place, and some were allowed to
view the remains.
After a short time it was found that the curi
ous crowds had cut the blankets almost to
piece* to get souvenirs. Many persons also vis
ited Baltimore Cemetery during the day, be
lieving the interment would be made there, but
came away disappointed.
Mrs. Booth and her sons, Edwin Booth and
Jnnins Brutus Booth, will arrive here to-mor
row, when the body will be deposited in a vault
at the Government Cemetery, and in a lew days
will be secretly interred, in the presence of the
family, at Baltimore Cemetery, beside tbe re
mains of Junius Brnlus Booth, the senior.
There seems to be a disposition on the part
of many people here to get up a demonstration,
but tbe relatives of Booth bitterly oppose any
thing of the sort, and have arranged to inter the
remains secretly, as above stated. Tbe presence
of Booth’s remains has been the topic of con
versation among all classes here, and has been
(he sensation of the day.

honored journal from declining, until such time as
the people of Georgia shah demand that the State

commanded for it an influence and circulation equal
to any paper in the State.

Time, Money and Labor Saved.
THE AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER
AND BOILER.
M 1 HIS most useful invention has been iutroduced
into this city by the undersigned, who guarantees the
performance of ail that is claimed for it. The cost is
comparatively trifling—SlX DOLLARS —when is
considered the amount of time, money and labor saved
by its use.
This Boiler operates upon purely philosophical prin
cipl- s.
It is self-acting, and dispenses entirelv with labor
and the wear of clothes.
The hot suds and steam, by the action of fire, are
driven up through lubes, poured upon the clothes,
and forced through the fabric with astonishing rapid
ity, cleansing it perfectly without any nibbing. It has
been thoroughly tested, and pronounced unequaled as
a Clothes Washer by those who have used it.
All fabrics, from the finest laces to the bed blanket,
can be washed perfectly an 1 with ease, without the
aid of the rubbing-hßrd. For Flannels it is invalua-
Us. ast.be vnhb ng. rolling amt pressing process must
necessarily full them more or lees.
It is truly a labor and clothes saving invention.—
Washing will no longer he a hardship, and washing
day no longer a terror and a dread to housewives.
The invention oan bo used in any boiler, aud tb
low price of the article places it within the icach of
every family.
The saving in the wear of clothes will very soon pay
for the outlay.
It is estimated that 200 to 300 gallons of boiled suds
pass through the clothes in thirty minutes; this being
the longest time required for c.earsing a boiler full of
clothrs.
I refer, confidently, to the following named gentle
men who have seen the Automatic Washer and
Boiler in operation:

Guarantied to be equal to anv fertilizer heretofore

various tests made by experienced planters of cotton,
it has been conclusively proven that an application,
pound for pound, alongside Peruvian, produces fully
as good results in favorable seasons, and in dnr
weather tho crop stands the drought much better. It
has also been demonstrated that in every case it makes
