The vaults of the mint and sub-reasury at New Orleans are overloaded with silver dollars, and about five million are tobe bronght to Washington and placed in the great vault jn the Treasury, where there is plenty of room. The naval vessel Swatara, now in port at New York, is being cleared of her gunsand ammunition, preparatory to going to New Orleans after this money, which will be placed aboard of her and brought to Washington.

A telegram tothe Philadelphia Times from Wilkesbarre ,August 5, suys:—About the year 1868 Beckerwith T. Brockway, of Salem town- ship, Luzerne county, had three life insuranc policies upon his life, aggregating about$40,00' distributed as follows: $20,000 in the Etna Life, of New York; $10,000 in the Connecticut Mutual Life, and $10,000 in the Mutual Benefit Life, of Newark, New’ Jersey. Soon alter his death Danicl F. Seybert, with whom he had been boarding, presented to the registrar of wills a will which made him sole executor and legatee. No caveat was fled, and letters of ad- ministration were regularly issued. Seybert de- manded the amount of the policies, but the in- surance companies refused to pay on the round that he had no insurance {nterest In the jife of the a The ca~e was reterred, under the act of 1863, to Alfred Hand, now judge of the Lackawanna county court,’ who sustained the defendants in their view, and Seybert was non-suited. he case had almost dropped gut of recollec- tion, but has since been revived by the heirs of Mr. way, who had a citation issued to the executor, and ‘the case was beard before Rezis- ter Boyd yesterday and today. The drift of the testimony shows that Seybert wrote the will himself and forged the signature of de- ceased. One of the witnesses to the alleged will testified that it was @ forgery, and that be had signed itas a witness knowing it to be such. During the examination Seybert was present, but took no part in the proceedings and offered no objections, The heirs at law ure Charles B. Brockway, of Bloomsburg, and F. E. Brockway, of Salem.’ The counsel is Senator Hughes, of Philadelphia. The register decided that the will was a forgery, and the heirs will now take Steps to recover from the insurance companies the full amount of the policies, with interest, which will amount to nearly $80,000, Squelebing a Toad. ‘From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. Mark Twain, in opposition to the burial of Grant in Washington, assigns as areason the probability that at no very distant day the west, grown strong, rich and populous, will demand and secure the removal of the national capital to some more central spot. The probability of such a thing Is very remote. Were the country without raliroads and tele- hs, @ more central site for the national fapltat would be des! able, and there would Jong ago have been @ ldable agitation of the question of removal. The facilities for travei, however, are sogreat, and the transmission of intelligence by tele- graph so immediate, that it is of small import- ance whether the capital is on the east or west side of the continent or at an intermediate point, Less inconvenience, expense and fatigue are experienced now by Representatives from Minnesota, Colorado and Montana in reaching Washingusn clty than was experienced by Rep- resentatives of nusetis and New ¥ before the days ol railroads; and as for com- munication, the telegraph absolutely annihi- lates distance and makes Washington as near 8 though it were in one’s back ya ‘Washington, to begin with, 1s the most beau- tilul city on the continent, aud destined to be ‘one of the loveliest in the’ world, Its situation is even more pleasing than that of Paris, and there is almost indefinite room for its expan- sion. Rich In historic and political associations, it Is accumulating them as the years pass by, and has already in these respects become more tractive than any other elty in the United ‘States—Boston and Philadelphia not excepted. Its great government buildings, its multiply- ing Monuments, its vast library, its collection of works of art—all these things combine, with its natural and artificial beauties, to make it the representative city of the nation and its capital. Pir. Clemnens is mistaken. ‘The west will pre- fer to have the capital remain where it is. It affords the western man havii business with the government an riunity to make a pleasant excursion, giving him a change of cli- mate and scenery, and a chance to see a multi- tude of objects dear to every American heart, and rendered supremely interesting by associa: tion with the greatest events in the history of the nation. "-——+0+ A Genuine Mind Care. From the Hartford Times. A lady at the South End was enjoying a visit from her mother, who had been stricken with paralysis some years previous, As soon as she arrived at her daughter's home she stipulated that she must sleep down stairs, as her health would not permit her to climb up stairs.

As she had done so and turned to go back to the bedroom she was Startled to see the face of a rough-looking man ring at her from one of the plarza windows. je woman, clad in her night clothes, was ehained with fear for onl, tant, and then, without uttering a sound, she fied up stairs to awaken her husband. In the mean time the old lady, her mother, heard her daughter's bare feet Pattering across the floor, heading for the stairway, and intuitively feeling that something was Wrong, and entirely forgetting her own condition, sprang from the bed and fairly flew after her daughter, She reached the and, in spite of her paralytic indrmi- ties, walch she hind’ so carctally, marsed for years, found herself rushing up stairs. Her daughter beard the behind her, and sup- that the man she had seen on the piazza ad broken in and was pursuing her.

To embark on the profession of an utterer of forged checks if you are not quite certain of your orthography is always rash, This is shown by an interesting case at present occupying the gttention of the Paris police, One of the banks has lately been defrauded by an ingenious gang of forgers. ‘They used to get possession by some meaus of the ‘signatures of certain of the bank's cus- tomers, which they proceeded to imitate with Such skill that their checks were paid without question, The used even to write business let- tersto the manager.
