Conpons 5.20's, 1 CONFESSION OF A COUNTERFEITER Charles Ulrich, who was arrested in Cin- cinnati a few weeks ago by Col. Wood, of the Treasury Department, en the charge of being engaged im counterfeiting, has made a free confession before Col. Wood and Marshal Murray in tbe grand jury room of New York city. His confession Covers about twenty pages, and gives the history of his life. He states he is a German by birth. and came to this coun'ry tn 155%, arriving in New York city. where he met umber of persons, who took bim to Boston, and from there to Halifax, Promising to give him work, being an engra- | ver oy trade. After arriving im Halifax, he was told be must either enlist in the British | Srty or get tack to New York. Having no funds, he enlisted in the English army, and | was sent back to England, and thence to the Crimean war. where he served his time out, and again cameo this country. Upon arri- ving in New York the second time, he became ject of our @gricultural operations, the distress | acquainted with a number of counterfeiters, will be not only increased bot perpetaa’ Now the experiment is a novel one in the South, and the journals there can hardly judge of the effects tobe produced Without experience it is natural they should exagger- been constant and intense, itis not found that ‘work ts suspended or business interfered with by political meetings. In this city, we are in ihe midst of an animated contest as to the local officers to be elected in June next. White, and blacks are promiscuousily engaged, and ‘ward meeliogs are held neariy every night in the week, but we donot know of any man, ‘white or colored, who has made the “political agitation” an excuse for neglecting his work for an hour. The colored men who are to ex- ercise the elective franchise here for the firs’ time, and who might naturally be expected to tske an absorbing interest im the matter, are very sensibly not allowing their new politic i porition to interfere with their employment, but find time to work as well as to attend tue meetings. They have much to learn. and by Sgitation only will they be taught to | think, and thereby be sooner fitted for the new duties and responsibilities with which they bave been clothed. Let them bear all sides: and judge tor themselves bow they will vote There is no donbt they will get to know something of both ef the pelitical parties con- tending fer the supremacy. A portion of the colored people ot Lyuchburg are engaged in preparing & letter of invitation to some South- ern speskers, asking that they deliver public | addretses to the colored people of the chy, and advise them what course to pursue in the Present condition of affairs, and the Ricbmond Dispoich lays aside its repugnance to the coloredpeople to ask: “If the newly-made voters bear bone but radical barangues, aud are left to infer, as they will be ready enough to do, thattbese are uvanswerable, how can they be expected to vote with the whites" qq __ ABRAHAM LINCOLN. Two years ago to-day, the rejoicings through- out the country at the suppression of the grear rebellion, were suddenly checked and tarned into mourning by the sad intelligence of the death of the President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. who perisbed by the hand Of ap assassin. Noone who was in Washing. ton at the time will ever forget the horror which thrilled this community on the night of April I4th, 1505, as the terrible news spread trom house to house: nor the Spontaneous manifestations of grief at the decease of the martyred patriot on the nextday, when, in a few hours after the dismal tidings of death were circulated, from every building—the bovel as well as the mansion—was displayed some symbol of mourning. Some of these man- piestations wereof the most touching character In many cases, where the pinchings of poverty orbade ostentation, a little scrap of faded IBourning on the door or window spoke elo- quently of the heartfelt grief of the poor and humble at the loss of their best friend. Every recurrence of this sad anniversary should be remembered by the nation, and its lessons im. pressed upon our hear's, to renew in us these Hires of patriotism which burned so brightly m the breast of the great and good man so oully murdered because of bis devotion to his country. The Governor of Illinois has ap- pointed this anniversary as a day of fasting nd prayer; but it will doubtless be remem- bered in thousands of homes throughont the land where no official action has been taken to commemorate it. STOR! IGNALS DURING HARVEST This plan of the storm signals during nar- ‘vest ia by meansof the telegraph and cannon ‘The telegraph is to convey the news ofa coming storm to each of the county seats, hundreds of miles in advance, in tne direction that the storm ts traveling. Then at each county seat & cannon ts to be fired three times, ‘Which will warn farmers throughout the whote country that a storm is approaching, in time to get their grainor hay under cover orina siluation toshutoutthe rain. The plan is by A. Watson, of this city. It was originally puo- lehed in fall ip the STaR of the 3d instant. A telegraph company, by arrangem ent with the county officials in several of the States, is about to pat the plan into practical Operation, in time for tne coming harvest. Itis believed that a large portion ef the many millions of dollars im grain and bay which are annually | damaged by rain during harvest will be saved by the universal adoption of this simple pian | ibrougbout the United States. ‘THE MISSISSIPPI CASE—DECISION OF THE SUPREME COURT. Chief Justice Chase to-day delivered the Gecision of the Supreme Court of the United States refusing to entertain the Mississippi Imjanction bill against the President of the United States in regard to the execution ofthe supplementary reconstruction bill. Tae Uourt allowed the Georgia bill to be filed, as the same objection did uot apply to the latter. In this decision the Court did not enter into the question of jurisdiction, but only sustained ine objections of the Attworoey General to the Dill as affecting the President of the Unitea Staves. The question of jurisdiction wilh come up in connection with the Georgia case, ‘which will be argued on Friday next. ped bss acess cies Jee FARMS IN ARKANSAS Toe Commissioner of the General Land Or fice has received returns showiag that 213 tarms. comprising im the aggregate 13,693 » were added to the productive torce of tate of Arkansas under the act of Jane 1606, providing for the disposai of the bi ic lands for homestead actual settlement tn the States of Alabama, Mississippi, Louis- sana, Ark and Florida.

He had also altered the | numbers on stelen watches for them ix order | that they might not be recognized. He acknowledges that 200,000 bad been printed from the S100 plate, in which he and igarneil were equally interested, and were also to be equal partners in the Sju0 plate when com- pleted. This plate, he states, would have been completed in ten or fifteen days, and a few of the potes printed. {t will be remembered that all the plates were captured by Col. Wood when the arrest was made, and are excellent imitations of the genuine. Ulrich also con- fessed that he was engaged on a $5 plate, and would have had the same sompleted in a short time bad he not been arrested. In New York he made a namber of fractional currency plates, which were sold to counterfeiters.

The interest manifested by the public in the resuit was almost equal to that evinced in London and on the “road™ to the course on a Derby day. The banks of the river were lined with spec- tators fora distanee of four miles, and every Availabiespoton the bridges were thronged With people. Almost every iady and gentleman Wore the colore of their favorites, the Oxford } color being a dark, and the Cambridge a light blue. The race, after a good start, was the most exciting one of the kind ever witnessed. Oxtord won by about halfalength. The time | of running was twenty-two minutes and thir- | ty-mine seconds. Oxford has been champion for the last seven years. THE PRESIDENCY —Schuyler Colfax has been formally nominated for the Presidency. by Governor Smyth, the retiring Governor ot residential election being but eighteen months off, candidates are. ot course, appearing in quarters. A listof the men already named will be found to con- tain the names of Generals Grant, Sherman, Thomas, McClellan, and Butler, Andrew » Schuyler Colfax, Senators Wade, erman, Sumner and Fessenden, Thaddeus tevens, Horatio Seymour and an indefinite number ofother persons. It is highly proba- bie that a Northern man for President, and a Southern man for Vice President, will be ran | by each party; and thereis no danger, from present appearances, that either office will go | abegging.— Philadelphia Ledger.
