PneoyafAlabajmUtt Henchmen has. told the whole story. Spencer appointed one of his ! most effi cient tools in -1872 lo be Collector of In teral Revenue, and then ordered troops to be placed at this man's ilayer'sy sex vice, for the alleged purpose . of protect ing the Federal . revenue officers iu the perfrmanee of their dutieifThis was the ostensible object!' (swears a witness, an assistant assessor land a deputy Uuited Stateis marshal, who was a leading actor at this business , but the real object was 'to parade the troops through jihe coun "iry with United States marshals having "pretended warrants and exhibiting them, 'fr.ibf purpose of iutimidatiug the peo "ple and driving persons from the country. "These warrauts were? uketbjrrthe "marshals into neighborhoods, and exhib "ited to persous whowould inform the "parties that the marshals were after them. "They would then leave the country or get "out of ihe way. Tiiey-" warrants' sirh "ply papers folded, jno writling on jihe "ihe inside, but names were on! the out "side on iher folds." Spencer: put the troops at Mayer's control, Mayer inform ed his duty,' and the iugeuuou duty, having prepared his blank warrants, made a reqaieiiioti for troops and set out. upon his maicii. He confesses that there was no outrage upon which the requisition was based, and no real necessity tor send ing the iroops to protect the official. He admits, however, that there was a pre tended outrage, of his own concocting, and it is to this bit of artistic manufacture that we wish especially to call thie Indiana Senator's attention. The Assistant As sessor and j Dnuty Marshal jsays : I "shot a hole through: my own hat with "my.pistol, and wrote to Mayer that I "had been set upon by men in ambush "K. K. ! K.f i which he perfectly under stood was not the case by a i-previous "understanding. I had the troops with "me at that time. I was in advance and "out of sight when I shot the hnlo in ray "hat, I ran back and deployed t hem as skirmishers, aud we advanced upon the "supposed K. K. K's with an intrepidity "that reflected credit upon the troop.-4, who 'knew no better than that there was a "real foe before ibem.f This was done, the deputy said, to satisfy the department at Washington that t he presence of troops was needed, lim outrage was duly re ported, and all details of it were! publinh- d in all the northern papers."

He was instrumental in bavins: trooos "placed at our disposal to carry out the sake." One can very well imagine what deterred the great War Governor Morton from making his recently contemplated health trip to the tropics, when his portfo lio is slocked with reports of ghastly out rages of ,th is sort. Morton is a brave man, but he is not a eohlier, and his legs are too weak for him to deploy effective ly, no malter how intripid he might be. Hence, he deems it widest to bombard the enemy from the safe offing of his seat in the Senate, and, as his stock of Umtntiui lion is necessarily inexhaustible, he will probably be fighting on that lineal! sum mer. N. Y. World. PLAINNESS OF SPEECH. These observations from ah article in "Blackwood" published soine years since, are illustrated at the present time by the great-work at the Hippodrome:- "There are far worse dangers to be apprehended in the matter of pulpit oratory than familiar illustrations and honest, plain-spoken English Firing over the heads of a congregation is a far more common fault, and much less excusable, than firing point-blank in to their consciences, even at some slight risk ot tailing into the coarse and grotesque. Rowland Hill (who certainly did not himself sin j on the side of over-refinement) was right enough when ho said: I don't like those mighty fine preachers, who so beautifully round on the sinners con science.' 'When I preach,' said Luth er, 'I sink myself deeply down: I re card neither doctors nor master, of b . ,i . i i i whom tnere are iu tne cnurcti aoout fortv:Jut I have an eve to the mul- titude of young people, children, and servants, of whom there are more than two thousand.' It is hardly too much to say that two-thirds of every ser mon that isi preached is practical ly unintelligible to an audience of Avork ingmen. Neither the words, ! nor the ideas, nor the formation of the sen tences, are what thev are accustomed to. It is quite true, that such audi cuces by no means object to 4ne ai1" guage, if it be sonorously - delivered; and there are plenty of stories, current as to the imposing efjfect of a sounding polysyllable, or everi a scrap of Latin, upon ignorant hearers. But ! if the pulpit trumpet is to call to the real battle of life, it must at least Utter an tntellisnble sound, i berraons. even more than pravers and catechisms must be in the 'vulgar tongue,' if they are to have any practical effect on the masses.

A clergyman who was formerly located in this city, but is now in New York, ! married, a little over a yeargo, a couple who at once parted for Europe, aud have since returned. The bridegroom was a gentleman of ; wea'th, and before he pre sented himself before the bridal altar he placed a $100 greenback bill in his vest pocket to give the parson for his marriage fee, and did pny it to bits, as he supposed, While crossing the occean he discovered, greatly to bis astonishment, the bill in the rigu look and peculiar dress, but posses pocket where he had placed it, and could ing unmisiabahle evidences of culture account for iiS presence there only on the ond refinement, pnnsed through the town theory that he must have had another and, going into the South mountains, bill of a different denomination which he purchased a small tract of land in one of had donated to the clergyman by mis-. the most hidden and inaccessible defiles', take. : j j and there built a'iniserable little log cab- On getting back to this country he de- in.

The clergyman was not prepared tos make any disclosurenatnrally being astonished that - his interviewer should propound such' a question ; but upon an explanation bein made that the gentleman himself, whom he then recog nizee!, was the one he badmarried, he said lhat hf would, of course, gratify him, since he was so anxious to know. "I received," he then went on to say, "a very small quantity of fine cut chewing tobac co, folded ih ai very small piece or paper," That was fenough ; the only thing re maiuing to! be done was to apologize, laugh heartily, shake hands, aud .make the $109 deposited good.- Hartford Couritr.

No part' of the ' preparations for the Cenntennial buildings . at ' Philadelphia excites more curiosity than that which Japanese are engaged upon. Their prin cipal building was framed in Japan, and twelve Japanese, in most remarkable costumes, are now putting it together. Every timber is carefully, finished and jointed as cabiuet work. : The ; carpentry is wonderful in finish and accuracy, and the strength of the bracing is perfect. The woods employed are also very hand some, and there are to be bamboo, houses to illustrate the life of the common peo ple, whose houses are almost wholly built of bamboo ant! furnished throughout from the same material. The Philadelphia Times gives the following account of the work which is now iu progress : "The way in which the Japs managed the pile-driving brought many a burst of laughter from the bystanders. They had a portable tripod, about twenty feet high, with two fixed pulleys under the apex, from which wa9 suspended by a grass rope a cylindrical iron hammer, weightug three hundred pounds. Six Jips oh each side of the machine seize a grass rope, which passes over one of the pulleys', the foreman stands at one side, holds up his forefinger, closes one eye, and then, apparently hot satified with this, picks up a short stick, holds it in a vertical position between his two forefingers, sights the pile with it, and at last winks with both eyes as a signal to the workmen that the ceremony of-Japanese plumbbobbing is concluded, the hammer moves up and down very rapidly, driving the pile an inch into the earth at every descent, un til it is time for the foreman to do a little more plumb-bobbing. The Japs draw their planes toward them instead of push iug them from them, and use an ink line instead of a chalk line. It resembles a tape-line case, and contains a sponge which may be saturated with ink of any color; through tins sponge the cord may be drawn and wound up, dispensing with the tedious process of chalking. "In the bamboo building not a nail will be used ; all the material !is there dove tailed, bevelled and mortised, ready to be fastened together with wooden ptnsi The artisans live in a frame structure within the enclosure, do their own cook ing and laundry work, and live oh soap, rice and dried meats, which they brought with them in hermetically sealed cans." ) MARCHING OUT OF EGYPT. 5 In a colored church in Augusta, Ga., a novel ceremony, called "Marching out of Fgypt," has been introduced. The worshippers meet about nine o'clock at iiigln, and, amid solemn changing, march around in a circle hour after hour. Thdse who hold out at this dreadful treadmill sort of performance until daybreak are considered the clneen oues, and destined for heaven while those who fall by the At i j waystae Horn weakness ot the heel), U not the spirits, are not in a state of grace, . . .. . e A trPn'li'Uia" living in the city was ciii it'uiHii iivujg in 'lie city on itii-iuiiit vno m riklii (V nafAiiiuim I li t , . ,r . . t i i althoush it was seven o clock, no prepa- rations were beine: made for breaklast and the cook was not visible.

Whereupon she replied lhat she had been "Marching out of Egypt," and explained the ceremony as above related. She was one of the elect. The Ihrmif of the South Mountains.

Those of his rustic neighbors who have bad the audacity to invade his sacred premises, assert that1 he lives in the rudest style to use their own words "sleeps on boards with mighty nigh 110 kiverin' and don't take but one bait a day." Nothing whatever can be learned of his history, He especially avoids the society of wo men and it is said that on one occasion when a woman crossed his fence aud started towards his hermitage, forbade her eutrance, and burned the rails which came in contact with her. dress as she crossed. Sometimes letters are sent to him, aud eccasionally money, which he ues for charitable purposes. Ho is an invaluable friend to the poor who abound in that region.
