The door on the ^ opened to a narrow pasaago, at the end of which, on the right, WM the ioor of the sitting room, the three win- iowa of which looked o:i toadingy green pansdi where stoo la lewlull, <caunt, ondon trees. In cue corner oc tho si'.- nff room was a door leading into the jiidui' liie beilrooiji, which oqminuiiicated with a dressing room, and had ;i door eading into tue end of tho passage, to ho left of the m.iin entranco from the ending. Thus I could make a complete irem't of my premises ; from tho sitting ooni, through the bed and dressing room •to the liassuge, and through tho pass- ge into the sitting-room again. I am nxioiu to be understood on this point, .8 a realization of the topography of the luce is necessity for the comprehension if the incidents I hive to relate. I will premise byassuring my reader hat ut thfl time of which I am speaking was in thorough physical he ilth. As is the case with most sucking barristers, I rather prided myself on cultivating a habit of niin I thut should not permit mo to bo unduly impr< ssed by causes unwar- ranted by calm reaction. I had Leenac- customed to a sedentary, to some extent, a solitary life, and in moving to apply niysolf unremittingly to legal studies. My new chambers had been unoccu- pied for some months, an 1 after miking sure that they had bfien well cleaned and soruboed, I sent in my furniture, and took no session. It w.is on a chill, dark October evening, that, after dining at my accustom :d eating-house, I wended ray way to my quarters. I shall never for- get that evening. There was a heavy, clammy feslinjr, in the streate, and as I turned into the dreary siuaro tho air seemed heavier and olammior. ();i ar- riving at my chamber.- 1 , I found the 'I iaf spirit-sodden old creature, wiio had at- tached herself to me as laundress and eh ir.voman, in the OOt of setting our. the tea things. Tao lamp was ligl ted, and and a bright fire baraed in tho gi-ato. On my coming i:i the old woman mumbled a few words, th.3 m :;tii'.n;' of wlioti I did not catch; however, well pleased with thj air of coinfoit she Had imparted to the place, I wished liur a cheery good- oieht as .she went out. Saving closed and locked tho outer door, I returned do ivu the p tssagj into thosittlng-io >;ii. 1 can purfeotly recall to mini its ap- pearancu that night. The polished fur- niture was gleaming and glittering in the light! the windows were vailed by thick curtains, and the door leading into the bedroom stood uj IT. I congratulated my- self on my possessions, andhiving poured myself out a oup of tea, andlighted my ips, seated myself with a volume of Plal- in an arm-chair by the tire. I had rea iiagfor some time, my mend had som.what wandered to a vague, sle py cons deration of matters not stiiotly rele- vant to constitutional his.ory. when I be- came aware of a btrange all-pervading chill, so sudden, so ucute, that I rose shivering, in the expectation of finding one of the windows op jn. But no, thev wore all cloned and fastened. Through the panes 1 could discern the gaunt branches of the trees, unstirred by any just of wind. On glanaing round the room I noticed the flame of the lamp, which, though somewhat dim, did not flicker or Beem agitated by the icy stream of air which chilled me to the bones. The bedroom door, as I mentioned before, was ajar, and the draught might proceed from one of the inner rooms. 1 lighted a can- dle with the intention of looking through them. The instant I entered the bed- room the candle went out; not suddenly, as from a current of air, but quiutly, in- stantaneously, as though it had been in- troduced into an atmosphere of carbonic acid gas. At the same moment, thl sation Ot" Cold cam.: over me, will ten times greater intensity than before. The gaslight in the square shone feebly into the rooms, I was able to tind my way through them into the passage, and back into the sitting-room. My sensations ap- peased to bo somewhat unaccountable : but attributing them to some draught, of which I could ascertain SOmi tiling in the morning, f closed the doors and resumed lny place bythe fire. After » little whilo I fell again into my interrupted train of dreamy thought, and I gradually fell asleep. Now, before proceeding further, I may state that I have never been a victim of nervous fancies. Nothing had ever oc- curred to mo bearing in the remotest way on the events I am about to relatxj— events utterly inexplicable by natural causes, and yet so fantastically real that even after a lapse of many years, I call them to mind with ashudder of horror. I remember as though it were yester- day the appearance of the room as I mused lazily in my arm chair before go- ing to sleep. The sound of anorgan which was being played in some neighboring street, came to me fitfully, at times again seeming to proceed from some groat dis- tance. The tire hail burned low, occas- ionally crackling and tickling. The lamp, as 1 have mentioned, was burning dimly, and a large portion of Ihe room was in deep shadow. I do not l:now how long 1 had been asleep, when 1 became conscious of my own being. I cannot Bay that 1 awakened, for though all my men- tal faculties were struggling painfully in- to life, my vital action seemed suspended, aud I was unable to move hand or foot. A cold perspiration burst from all my pores as I made vain etlorts to shake On the incubus that was upon me. My feel- ing was one of impotence; it watt as though I had been frozen into a solid Uloek of ice. I endeavored to call out; ! had no power over my voice, and could not utter aword. But as I gasped and panted, there stole into my nostrils a deadly, terrible, overpowering stench, unmistakable in its penetratingsickliuess to me who had frequented hospitals. It was the dread odor of decomposing mor- tality that was suttbeating me as I sat. 1 frit tr t at 1 i.iu-t break th« spell Or die, With one torrible exertion that strained every nerve and muscle, I burst from the My first iden. was that n dead body must bo concealed somewhere in the room. Tho hideous odor still clung to my nos- trils, ami the abiurdity of such a suppo- sition did not strike m«. I searched tho room, but of course found nothing, though iu i::. astonishment) the bedroom door, whion I had narefully olosed, was wide open. A.; f advanced toward it with the intention of closing it again, my lamp was extinguished in the same unaccount- able manner as before; 1 looked it, how- ever, securely, and again struck a light. liy this time 1 had suilioieutly recover- ed to endeavor to reconcile my seasa tions to natural causes, or at any rat; to a formidable attack of nightmare. I lighted my pipe, in the hope of neutral- izing the terrible ;' 'nc!i that sti'.l pervd- ded the i\K>m. Leaning Oil tho mantel- piece, I actually s:ni!" 1 i; beholding my n pale, scared-looking face in the mir- ror. As I looked, suddenly every pulse in my boily stoo I still. I beheld thi flection u: the bedroom door, which grad- ually, noiselessly, opened of itself. I tried to comma ii IUJ '.i\ and turned round towards the door. The same in- ense thrill of cold, but not a soul was there. C ootisiderud for an instant, and orosu-exarniuod myself as to my own con- dition. It. was evident that my nerves wore completely unstrung, and I decided, us I sawreflected in the looking glass my own giiastly-loolcing fare, that I was not ! n acondition to investigate the matter any further for tho night. A dread was upon mo that I could not shake oil': BO, hastily, putting on my great coat and iat,i hurried out of the room, through he passage, found myself on tho landing with a sigh of relief, and, locking the out- door, walked to the rooms of a friend Krholive3 in the neighborhood. S -, who was reading for tho In- iian Civil Service, was glad to see me, md ottered me a shake down for the light. I informed him at tfucc of the auso of my ignominious flight from the ooms. My experiences had been too un- aistaicably real for me to dread ridicule :i the relation of them. No, confessin 5 unreservedly that I had been a] frightened out of my wits, 1 sat patient- ly enough .: b ad i.vored to prove sat- isfactorily that my sensations Ware entire- ly due to nerves or indigestion. Before retiring to re8t, however, wo agreed to spend the following night together in my chambers. Iu the morning wo wont about our respective duties, with an ar- rangement to meet at dinner in the eve- ning. I did not call at Gray's Inn square during the day; and what with atten- ding to lectures and reading tough law, had not only overcome any idea, of super- natural agency iu the event of the prece- ding night, but, as the evening drew near, i to think of the matter. It was about 8 o'clock a > \ye entered the rooms t ij •' > P. The old laundress had evidently been at work, us on the preoodinjs; evoriing. The tin: was burning brightly, the lamp was lighted, and the tea things were set on the table. Wo walked through the rooms ao 1 found everything in perfect order.

After a little while we agreed to play at chess, and ir- ranged asmall sid.< table iu front of tho fire.

It is the habit of old people to cry down the present and to cry uptiie past. " It "was different when we were young," they say ; " and it was better," they gen- a Id.

We do not agree with the: poets in this matter, and never shall, liut wo are willing to agree with them, if they will agree with us. We will admit that the old time is the time, but they must admit that no time is so old as tho present time. It i.s the fact, whether they admit, it or not, and it follows, therefore, that it is tho best time. And it ought to be ; for peoples, like per- sons, " live to learn." Were it otherwise, all the battles that have* been lost and won, all the great men who have lived and died—everything, in short, th.it was, and is not, would have been to 110 pur- po 1. it is the crab that walks backwards not man.

Knowing it to be a critical one, I was considering it at 1 in all its aspects; my decision was just formed, and I was on the point of moving a piece, when gradually, suryly, I bee ime aware of the. same extraordinary sensa- tion of cold as on the night before, just as if the surrounding atmosphere were be- coming iced into solidity. 1 felt that the bedroom door behind me was opening, 1 looked up with the intention of calling ' attention to the phenomenon, but my movement was unnecessary; he was equally conscious of it with myself. lie had risen from his chair, and I can never forget the expression oi his which was livid and distorted. His eyes were wide open and turned full on the door that was behind my chair. All his features were convulsed, and his appear- ance, as hebent forward, as if is intensity of horrified expectation, was perfectly terrHio. I actually saw his hair lift from his head aud the great beads of sweat stood 1.1:1 his forehead. lie took not tho slightest notice of my movement, but slowly raised one hand, as if pointing inething in the room bohiud me; then suddenly, and without giving me a moment's warning, with one loud yell of agonized terror, he dashed to tho door leading into thepassage and out of the main door, which shimmed heavily be- hind him. I hastened after him into the passage'. Then [ remembered that the outer door dosed with aspring lock, and that the key was in the pocket of my great coat, which was hanging in the ben room. We had inadvertently left the door open on coming in, and thus R had been enabled to MOttpe. It would be impossible to describe my feelings at lind- myself alone in the passage. Sow long it was before I mustered up sufficient nee of mind for reflection I cannot tell, but at last I realized to myself the fact that to leave mv room it was ni sary to gotthe key. With a desperate ;e I returned to the sitting room. Tho lamp was extinguished; tho fire was burning with a sickly glare. With closed eyes I advanced into tho bedroom. I quickly found my way to the peg on which my coat was hanging, when some- thing h mpened that caused my heart to stand still, and my blood to freeze. ! heard a movement in the passage.—a strange, heavy, shuffling sound, as of a body dragging itself down thi An impulse seized me, unaooountal all the ot!>er events of that memorable night. I felt impelled to follow the thing that w;u painfully, slowly dragging it- s!ilf down tho passage. I stepped into the dressing room ; and asl moved on I heard it nrpvo on before me. I quickened my paco, I ran ; still I could not overtake that which I still hoard dragging itself ;.long. Af.er three or four headlong rushes faomrdom to room, I stopped inthe mid- dle of the sitting room to recover breath. As I stood arevulsion of fooling came over me. My eagei ao 9 to confront and discover the sounds t'could hear, gave, way to honor.. I felt my life and I reason to rtepjnd on my escape. As 1 I moved to the bedroom floor, it elosi.d in my face.

"We have lived- and learned. " There, is no royal road to learning," is an old axiom, but the average Ameri- can will not be eouvincud of the truth of it.

Aud he does, though many of them aro payed with anything but good intentions. "Get rich, my son, get rich, honestly if you can ; if not—get rich." It was not a Frenchman who said this, although one m'ght think so, but a member of that plain speaking sect—-the Ciuakers. The average American does not "speak out in meeting," he is top smart for that—h« merely puts his intention i:i practice. It is not so much his fault perhaps as the fault of the period, that ho makes haste to grow rich. Everybody does so. Tho Standard of morals i.s no longer what it was.

C: Siu—We, tho Republicans of New York, wish to express our conourrenci; in tho principles lately set forth by the Lib- eral Repulilicans ot' Missouri. We make this departure from the ordinary insth- t|ds of party action from a deep convic- tion that the organization to which we belong is under the control of those who will use it chiefly for personal purposes and obstruct the iVee expression of opin- ion ontheimportant matters which the gentlemen whom you represent have l:ii>l before tho people of tho United States, W'j believe that the timo has conn: when political oll'euses of the past should be pardoned; that nil citizens should be protected in the* enj jyiiu.-ut of the rights guaranteed them by the Con- stitution ; that Federal taxation should be imposed for revenue and so adjust to make the burden upon the industry of the country Kg Hg.it us possible; that a reform in the civil servii e should be made which will relieve poliiic.il action from tb,o influence of official patronage ; that the light of local Bplf-governnient, the foundation of American ftvedom, should bo reasserted, aud the encroachments of Federal power checked; and we also b'j- lieve that at this time a special duty rests on tho poople to do away with corruption in ofiice. The exposures ruceutly made in this Statu have Imr.igljt to Ugnt evils which ure not confined to one party, nor to a single locality, and disclose dangers more formidable than any which the Re- public has yet encountered.

The little band of Democrats in Consrress during the war won the admiration of all good people by their quiet determination and ready aid in all Union work, and this work was done amid jeers and scoffs. We heard Republicans say—leaders, too— We must break ; he is a Democrat;' or, ' it will never do for to become too popular ; it will ruin another State for our party.' ' Certainly not; hunt up >mothiug, and get him out of the way.' Now, my dear Knowail, we expected all these things Of the Democrats, becauso ,vo believed them totally depraved and jjiven up to their idols; but it grieved and surprised us to find them In tho party we had honored, and, after a mental struggle wliieli you would not understand, we be- eame a Democrat—that is, if being a Democrat means tho best possible men iu ofiice, virtue beforo dollars, cleanliness be- fore tobacco and whisky, honor and the good of tho whole people beforo 'our plat- form, wise ruiers irrespective of party, md politics clean enough for women to handle.

Dupuy do fioiue, tho colobrated Fronch nautical engineer and member of tho French Academy of Science, con- structed a naviarablo balloon during tho siege of Paris, but it was not in a condi- tion to be sent up in tho air when the siege terminated by the Paris capitula- tion. Tho funds, amounting to $9,000, were exhausted, and the communist in- surrection stopped the proceedings Tho balloon was concealed lest it should bo destroyed by the insurgents. When tho Versaillists took possession of Paris the construction was resumed at M. de Lome's own, expense. Several ^Iterations wero introduced in the original scheme, and tho ascent was delayed by several una- voidable circumstances It was made oa the 9th instant, from Yinccnnes' now fort, before a large audience. M. Dupuy do Lome ascended himself, and conducted the whole expedition. Thirteen peTsons were on board besides—M. Zcde, a naval engineer, some friends of M. Dupuy de L,omo and eight men for working tho .-; e.ew ; four wore to pull at ouce, and the calculated rate of motion in air per- fectly calm was eight miles per hour. The wind ,ya3 blowing from the south at a rate of forty-two miles. Tho ane- mometer of Montsaurin Observatory re- corded only twelve; but it is known from Mr. Glaishor's ascents that ground n imometers do not give nearly the full valuj of serial motion. M. Dupuy do '.in.: only expected a slight deviation from the direction of the wind, according to ttie composition oi' forces. The ex- pected deviation was obtained several limes during the journey, and the rato directing power was slightly supe- rior to the calculation. Inside tho bal- ooa is a small one, which is filled with common ajr through »n air. pomp, for ;aking the room of the gas which escapes n cjiisequenco of the dilation. That pa -t of the apparatus proved also a great uccoss, as the balloon was kept quite full until the descent. That operation was also most successfully effected, owing to thn elongation of the balloon, which is elliptical, the great axis being three times ;he length of the smallest. The balloon descended at Noyton, about ninety miles from Paris, in the direction of Brussels. The ballpon is perfectly sound, except a small piece which was tprn out of it by boys for tho purposo of taking a relic, which practice is the curso of 8 : nauties. It will be sent to Vincen- nes to wait for other experiments. Tho weight of the car was 1,000 pounds, of passengers and crew 2,200 pounds besides tho screws and, balloon. With such a weight it is possible to employ a steam engine. Casualties in the Army.

It is not quitjclcir who tirst seized O'- Coiiuor wiieu hu presented his unloided pistol at the carriage win.low, but the (Joint Circular, which is drawn up under the personal supervision of the Queen, gives tin credit of tho capture to John Brown. John is rather ti celebrated char- acter in his way, and was regarded witi: much curiosity when he appeared us a witness in the Police Cour:. Ho is an Aberdeen man, from tho neighborhood of Balmoral, and was Priuco Albert's fav- orite ghilly when the Prince went out grouse-shooting, or deer-stalking. The Queen frequently accompanied her hus- band on his 6portiug expeditions, and was much struck with Brown's evident ut- tachment and devotion to his master, as well as by his shrewd remarks and inde- pendent judgment on all matters on whieh ho was consulted. Brown was al- ways prepared for every emergency. If the clouds gathered suddenly overhead, if a change of wiiid brought a luting air with it from the snow-tops cf the moun- tains, it was invariably found that JJi-own's foresight had providedfor it, that shawls and wrappers had been stowed away somewhere, mid that everything was forthcoming when required. Brown knew thonicost camping plaocs, tho saf- est roads, and tho best way of managing everything. After the Prince's deutu he became the chief personal attendant on the Queen, and has ever since maintained his supremacy in the honsehoU. i: companies her Majesty on all oi:ea.-ions, leads her pony or rides, iu the rumble be- hind her carriage. In his tartan kilt and plaid, stalwart, shaggy, hard-featured, he is :i genuine speeinum of the North Coun- try Scot; and ho is also a thorough Bool iu character and temtier—very quiet, cool and imperturbable; reserved in speech, although outspoken enough on occasion; "canny" and deferential, but also reso- lute and pertinacious Ho belongs to the type of Scotch retainers of whom sev- eral samples aro to bo found in S novels, who identified themselves with "tho family," believed in it, worshipped it with intense, pMrieaste fidelity, but at the same tin;e had np hesitation ju ex- pressing iin honest opinion ou any ques- tion, even at the risk of differing from the master or mistress. Til? Scotch have al- ways been remarkable for this personal loyalty nnd trustiness. It is coi;n:ionly supposed th.vt as(,yornig.:i, with a great household always at oaU, must neoessari- ly bo well served ; but the value of all ser- vice depends on the spirit in whjch it is rendered; and in the midst of the retinue istly afford the new.

The number of reported cases of drowniug, poisoulng;, homicide and suicide seems to us greatly in excess of the proportion in civil life, T:iis has frequently been remarked con«- cerning suicides, and the reason is evident} to all who are familiar with tho class*o£ men who enter the service. Abaut thirty cases of shooting- by guards, of which two-thirds were fataii- are especially noted. Three instances are recorded of men shot by commission', ed officers whilo engaged in mutiny. About seventy-five injuries wero received in brawls, of which ono-thhd resulted'fe- tally. One hundred and twenty-irw> oases of wounds received from Indians iu o given.

  • A \e>v Railroad 1'rojcct.T the Projectors of mid Hailicay :

    (JEVTLKMKX :—Agreeable to your re-quest, I havo carefully examined the Ktul-road route indicated by you, from thocity of Fort Wit3'nc, in tho State of Indi-ana, through tho town of Bryan, in Ohio,thenco through the villages and cities ofMorenoi, Adrian, Tecumseh, Saline, AnnArbor and Pontiac, to Romeo, in theiState of Michigan, llomeo being tho mostwesterly termination of the Grand Trunkllaihvay of Canada; a distance of onehundred and seventy miles, in nearly anair lino.

    Preliminary surveys of said route, fromFort Wayne to the city of Ann Arbor,have been iraidc, and fully demonstrateits practicability- This line runs chieflyalong tho lovol track of heavily timberedlands bordering tho west eoast of .LakeErie,, admitting of nearly, an aip-liiie ofRailroad of very uniform grades.

    This lino has been already located, andis being rapidly constructed from the cityof Adrian, in Leaawee County, to. Saline,in Washtenaw County, Michigan^—a dis-tance of twenty-five miles About ono-fburth.of this distance the bed i& comple-ted, ready for the iron, and the work israpidly progressing on tho remainder.

    The surface of tho land between thocity of Ann Arbor'and Borneo is most fa-vorable for the location and constructionof a public railroad. Although I havo noprofile of such line, I have no doubt of thepracticability of constructing said roadat a minimum cast. This line extendsthrough the most fertile, populous andwealthy sections of southeastern Michi-gan, and north and northwestern Indi-ana and Ohio, ana*.embraces a populationof more than ont hundred ami eighty thou-sand, and having an assessed valuation ofone h'iwired and fifteen millions of dollars.A bolt of the richest and. most productiveland, twenty-five miles in width, wouldX>3 tributary to said Railroad, and wouldgive to it a great share of its local traffic ;and by connecting with roads leading tothe Saginaw Valley, it would become animportant medium for the distribution., oftho vast products of plaster, salt andilum-ber of that rich and extensive territory,not only to tho flourishing.cities-and vil-lages along the line, but throughout thevast rogions of the State of. Ohio, Indi-ana and Illinois, and of returning to thogreat markets of this valley the abund-ant supplies of breadstuffs and othe"r pro-ductions of those agricultural States ; addto these the distribution of coal from thounbounded eoal-fiulds of the States of In-diana and Ohio, and you havo a localtraffic which alone would seem to justifya large outlay for the construction andequipment of this lino of road. But,looking beyond the local traffic of thisline and of the development of the Sagi-naw Valley, we perceive considerationsof much greater importance. It is wellknown that the Grand Trunk Railway isthe grand artery of trade to the heart ofNew Kngland, that its ramifications pen-etrate every nook, and connect by theshortest and most direct route all of themanufacturing cities and villages in theNew England States.. The western con-nections of the Grand Trunk Railway areby no means favorable to the largestamount of trade. Its interests are dam-aged, and its energies appear to be lan-guishing, for want of appropriate stimu-lant feeders at its. western termination,while our own main lines of through rail-ways are blocked half the year by freightseeking tho markets of tho northeast.

    This proposed line from tho city of FortWayne to Romeo will supply this deficit,and by filling this gap of one hundredand seventy miles, a continuous trunkline will be formed from the city of Port-land, in the State of Maine, to FortWayne, Indiana, one of the most import-ant railroad centers in the middle West-ern States, and by other connections nowpreparing, a continuous air-line is effect-ed to St. Louis and the great Valley oftho Mississippi, and by taking advantageof the Illinois Central Railroad to Cairo,the Fulton aud Cairo road to Marshall,in Texas, then uniting with the TexasPacific Railway to San Diego, in South-ern California, we have the shortest, mostdirect and feasible routes between theAtlantic and Pacific oceans.

    As this projected line crosses nearly atright angles all tho main trunk railwaysleading from Chicago eastward, doubtsmay be entertained as to a sufficiency oftraffic to justify its construction, as itmust bo expected to divide the trafficwith these roads already constructed, butwhen tho amount of through freight isfully considered,.all doubts on this sub-ject will be at once dissipated. All thothrough lines of, railways from Chicagoeastward are crowded with business farbeyond their present capacity of trans-portation, and the through business israpidl. increasing, from year to year, totho extent of doubling in four or fiveyears.

    It will bo readily perceived, therefore,that no doubts need be enteitained as tosufficiency of traffic to justify the construc-tion of this short line, filling, as it would,the gap in this great through line rail-way, uniting the garden of the West withthe principal markets of tho country andthe world

    Our fresh water inland seas and- navi-gable rivers are ice-bound from four tosix months of the year, and at the timewhen tho market valuo oi produce andmerchandise is at its maximum,, hence thodemand for railway transportation.

    Indeed, the present business of thocountry would justify Jthe construction ofa double railway track on all our throughlines from Omaha to the waters of theAtlantic, ana yet agriculture, mining andthe mechanic arts, in connection with theproductiveness of the soil of the greatprairies, and forest fields of the West andSouthwestern States and Territories, havescarcely commenced to pour their treas-ures into the lap of commerce, to bethence distributed to supply, in part, thewants of the world. Should the con-struction of this most desirable line ofrailway be delayed, other lines must andwill be constructed, for the ̂ restless andproductive energies of the nation demandand will have appropriate outlets, andthe sooner this line of road is completedthe sooner will the interests of the pub-lic industry be subserved, and its con-structors and operators receive the re-ward of this, their successful public en-t rprlsc.

    AN AjJTJSING INCIDENT.—A Washing-ton correspondent writes as follows: whilethe house was in committee of the wholeon the deficiency appropriation bill aquestion arose on which a division of thehouse was demanded, and the chairman,Stevenson, of Ohio, appointed Gen. But-ler ami Gen. Kumsworth tellers. Butlerand Favnsworth are not on speakingt:rms, and when they met in front of theclerk's desk they did not observe the usunl custom of shaking hands, whereuponsome member, wishing to carry on thejoke, insisted upon iretiodueing them.Butler was unwilling to look at Farns-worth, while the latter refc8« impres-sion that occasionally Butler went oneeyo on him, but he is not sure of this, forsometimes it seomed as if Butler waslooking in two or three different direc-tions ftt onco The affair passed off with-out any personal collision.

    FRIDAY MORNING. APRIL 5.1872.

    The Cincinnati Conventions.Two conventions are called to be held

    at Cincinnati, Wednesday, May 1st: onoby the "Liberal Republicans" of Mis-souri, the other by " The Ucuuion audReform Association " of Cincinnati. Theresolution of the lattar organization mak-ing the call is based on tho fact that onlyRepublicans are understood to.be invited,to participate in the " Liberal Republi-can " Convention, and is as follows:

    IUsoloed, That we invite all voters,,whether of Democratic, Republican, orother party antecedents, who are willingto unite with us in fa-»or c $. u t 'i ing tha-Goustitution as it is, of civil service re-form, a tariff for revenue only, of generalamnesty for all past political offenses, IUKIa local self-government—to meet with usin National Convention, at Cincinnati,.Ohio, on the first day of May next,, to dorcade on. the best plan of action to securethe above-named objects, and the promo-tion of the general wcllfare.

    The declaration of principles put forthin the call, indorsed by several hundredprominent citizens of Cincinnati, bothDemocrats and Republicans, is as fol-lows:

    1. The only logitimatopurpose of a tariffis to provide necessary revenue.

    2. Tho support of the Constitution asamended, and the protection of the rightsof every citizen under it.

    3. Universal amnesty, and the restor-ation of fraternal feelings and relationsamong the people of tho different States.

    4 A steady return to gold and silveras tho only sound and safe basis of cur-rencies.

    5. Opposition to the present caucussystem in legislative bodies as corrupting,dangerous, and at variance with the spir-it of our institutions.

    6. The inviolate maintenance of pub-lic faith.

    8. Tho abolition of tho demoralizing" spoils system " by a thorough reform ofthe civil service.

    8. Opposition to all secret political so-cieties, and to violence and lawlessness,whenever or by whomsoever committed.

    9. And that as our country progres-ses, the General Government should moreand more, within the limits of the Con-stitution, be confined to that which isgeneral and common to the whole peo-ple ; and to each State should belong thecare and supervision of all that is fairlyreserved to it.

    In the list of officers and committees oftho organization making this call we no-tice such well-known names as WILLIAMB. CALDWELL, President; RUFUS KINO,Judges STALI.O and HOADLY, Vice Presi-dents ; B. STORER, Jr., NICHOLAS LONO-WORTH, STANLEY MATTHEWS, and GEO.WABD NICHOLS.

    — The circular beforo us announcesthat a Committee of Arrangements hasbeen appointed to act for both conven-tions, to arrange for transportation andaccommodation of members, and thathalf fare is expected from leading rail-roads.

    Neither convention is a delegate body,but all sympathizers in the declarationsof principles put forth are invited to at-tend. Democrats who do not cordiallyindorse the creed of "Tho Reunion andReform Organization " copied above arefew and scattering, so that a large andable Democratic representation may boexpected.

    THE BOAuT) O F " S L T E R V I S O R S .Below will be found a full list of tho

    Supervisors elected on Monday, classifiedpolitically, although four of them—allR publicans—were elected on " Citizens'"or " Union " tickets :

    DEMOCRATS.

Jones.Weed'onr Blias Hairo*.Lodi, James Sage.Manchester, Horatio Burch.Scio, Patrick Tuomy*.Sharon, Emerson Annabil.Superior, William Geer*.Sylvan, Orrin Thatcher*.Webster, Henry Welch.Ypsilanti City, 2d dist, Luther P.

    " Town, W. I. Yeckley*The Board stands—as tho reader may

    tell by counting—13 Republicans, 12Democrats. Last year it was just the re-verse, ̂ Democrats, 13; Republicans, 12.The Democrats lost one each in Ann Ar-bor, Lyndon, Northfield, and Saline, 4;and gained in Augusta, Sharon, and Web-ster, 3.

    — Those marked_with a * are re-elect-ed. Of tho now members five—Messrs.Childs, LeBaron, Annabil, Krapf, andRowe have served on formor Boards.

    BEFORE answering to the summons togive testimony before the French ArmsInvestigating Committee, Senator SUM-ner put in an earnest protest. He de-nied the right of a committee to call up-on a Senator to testify " in regard to hispublic conduct, and especially in regardto a matter which he has felt it his dutyto lay beforo the Sonato in the dischargeof bis public duties." He claimed that aSenator was a member of a co-ordinatedepartment of the government, and thathe " cannot bo interrogated : first, withregard to his conferences with other Sen-ators on public business, and, secondly,with regard to witnesses- who have confi-dentially communicated with tan." Hoalso declared that the committee* hod beenconstructed in violation of all tho rules ofparliamentary law, and that, therefore, itwas without authority to act. Upon thispoint he made a very strong showing,quoting authorities that mado the major' ity which packed tho committee for par-tisan purposes appear as if drawn througha very small knoWiolo. In short, theprotest, sw a whole, is a pointed and pun-gent p«.jjes.

    AT the city elections- on Monday last,Ypsilnnti, Jackson, Monr»er Hillsdale,,Pontiac, Grand Rapids, Port IIuion,.andSt. Clair went Democratic, and perhapsothers should bo tallied the same way. InColdwator, a veritable Egypt, ALBERTCHANDLER, Democrat, our old "boss,'1

    was elected Mayor on a Citizens' ticket,beating II. C. LEWIS.

    LTHBL'S race, and a large force of:i.e, while it could be built for $240,000'«8 money.

    The meeting was also addressed byMessrs. J. A. BUTTON, of Flushing, whoexhibited specimens of the Flushing'tone; L. C. ClIAlCBBBfi, of Hartland ;J- B. HYATT, of Lyndon ; Dr. Mather, of"yone, who said tho Tyrone hills werea(|t in tho way, that they had a waterl.vel right through—made for the specialimpose, and the money to pay for grad-•Sg and building. They had no coal and•tone—some outcroppings, but had plenty°f wheat and a mill to furnish a car loadof flour a day. The meeting was furtherp d by Messrs. J. B. CIIOU.SE, of

    land—who thought ho had been de-lved, and became unnecessarily indig-ent, because be had just learned whatwe public knew years ago, that tho Tole-'OiAnn Arbor, and Northern Railroad™ its northern terminus at Owosso,

    lnd could not hitch on to his project atmoment's notice; and by Messrs. Ow:.\hl"l THATCHER, of Eist Saginaw, who*wc confident that that city preferredlllls lino to tho Corunna line, and would»'•• it liberally.

    Messrs. DOUGLASS and Tnirr , in be-la'f of the T., A. A. and N. R., stated*"at had been dono by tho directors in**uig aid, and announced as their con-fasion that any projoct must help itselfWore seeking help abroad. If subscrip-^Jns'—stock or donations,—sufficient-ould be received along the liho to con-duct a roadbed and tie it, iron could be

    , H and the road completed. But this

    subscription must be received :

    road men were approached.After a free conference and full under-

    standing of the situation, the meetingadjourned ( meet at East SaginawThursday. April 25th, fo organiza th<East Saginow and Ann Arbor RailroadCompany.

    — The citizens of Ann Arbor and thproprietor of Cook's Hotel were thankedfor their courtesies.

    — In behalf of Ann Arbor, it waspledged that the county would constructa road—not exactly this road—to thocounty line.

    —Corunna had a delegation present aridbefore adjournment, at tho invitation ofIRA B. CROUSE, Mr. GALE spoko brieflyin favor of the Corunna route, and an-nounced a determination to lock hornsand try titles. Go in and let the bestmen win.

    The Charter Election.The charter election on Monday was

    a triangular fight, only that tho Repub-lican angle had its head knocked off, theMayor candidate, Dr. SMITH, withdraw-ing—according to arrangement,—hisfriends generally going for the Democrat-ic candidate.

    Tho Democratic ticket nominated onFriday evening was a good one, and washeaded by one of tlio most popular menin tho party, in city or county. Wo sawmany men voting and working againsthim under protest, but they couldn'tswallow tho backers whose shoulders hestood on. It was not Jonx J. ROBISONthey voted against, but the men who hadforced him upon tho ticket to beat MayorDOUGLASS, because, of his persistent ef-forts to protect our goodly city againstfren trade in liquors. That is the plainEnglish of i t in a fow words. Carryingsuch he,avy weights he made a big runand came near winning.

    COLE, the Democratic nominee for Recorder, was not so lively a pacer. Hewas put up to got the votes of those stiffbacked Democrats who never scratch aticket, and whe couldn't have voted if aDemocratic ticket hadn't been nominat-ed. Ho rakod in 52 such " hard shells,"tho larger number of tho Democrats whoopposed tho Citizens' movement, " froitiprinciple," ratifying tho bargain whichhad been made with the Republicanswho wouldn't fuse, and voting for Guu-NER. I t was right to fuso ono way butnot the other.

    On Justices of the Peace tho pull wasa little more even, but the light voto ofthe Democratic candidates shows that alarge portion of the Democratic vote wasgiven to the Citizens' ticket—larger infact than the figures show, for Messrs,llOOT and WlBENMANN received a largenumber of Republican votes.

    With these preliminary remarks wegive the figures and our friends can digestthem at their leisure :

  • Swindlers and Impostors.A, fool ivnd hit* money aro soon parted.

    B*it so ingenious is the modern swindler>nid the impostor, that the wisest men arcoften made the dupes of clever trickery.Indeed, the unsuspecting philosopher andShe confiding philanthropist are the menmost easily dbceiveds by the cunning swin-dler and the brazon-facedimpostor. Wo-men, too, are- easily made the victims ofcraft, for they are more tenderly disposedtowairytlmso who appeal to sympathy,andless cautious in their investigations.

    Our corainurifcy has been- excited thepast week with the exposure of giganticseriemos of swindling, reaching from thiscity as a center to tho remotest corners ofthe country, and even to foreign lands.For some time past our subscribers havebeen sending to us copies of circular let-ters received by them through the mail,offering them counterfeit money, or waresof groat value at a trifling cost, or u.scheme to make money rapidly withoutiard work, or improper books aad pie-tures to be sent secretly on the receipt ofmoney,, and! under many other pretences;tho object being to induce the reoeiver of•he circular to send money to the addressnamed in. the circular. Perhaps the saw-dust swindle has-been the most successfuland certainly it is the hast criminal, be-aauso it is a c&eat practiced only uponsooundi-els-: no Jioitest ]/ernon ever suffers bijit. The swindler sends b » circular toPeter Sharp in some country town, offer-ing to send him fivo hundred dollars incounterfeit nioney, on tho receipt of tendollars; the package to go by express•ealed, so as to be perfectly safe againstprying eyes and lingers. Peter Sharpsnaps at tho bait. Hfe sees a ohance toget a gre:it lot of bud money for ono lit-tle bill of good ; he sends on his money•ad. gets nothing in return: no money,bad" or good, comes back ; but tho circularsays he need not send any money at all;if ho will give his address the package•will be sent by express, and ho can paythe- e-xprcss on- the delivery of the pack-age to him. This- is so .very fair that Po-ter tries it. No goods, no pay. J5J sendshis order, and in course of tiino he re-ceives by express a package, and pays theprice (*10) and expenses. Now he is sureof his prize. lie says nothing, but goingto some retired spot, where not even hisown family can know what ne is about,ho opens his package and finds a neat pa-per bos. filled with sawdust! The swin-dler is swindled .' He intended to cheatW« iiei.crlibor with counterfeit money,.andfias been cheated himself Nobody wouldpity him if his case were known ; but holias no redress; ho was plotting a crime,and the least ho savs ui' it the better forhinr.

    There are many otlier games of a simi-lar kind constantly t?oing on. Our friendsneed not trouble themselves to send to ustho swindling circulars they receive; northe proposals to furnish) tli9m bad' books,or cheap wares, or shares in gift enterprises, or lotteries to dispose of housesand lands and pictures. All these things,and like things, are illegal or immoral,and usually both. When they come, de-stroy them at once, and never answerthem on any account.

    Tho-citios ami tl*r couirtry are also in-fested with vagrant, and vagabond im-jestors, men and women, going aboutunder one pretext or another, and thesame person under various mines, askingmoney. The pious dodge is the one mostfrequently adopted. Hut the pretencesOH).-6©-numerous that it is in. vain to at-tempt to enumerate the!a< Perhaps min-isters and their wivea-aro more frequentlyimposed upon by shesc applicants thanany other. No person has any occasionfor itinerant -begging, Tho State andprivate charity have made such provisionfor tho temporary support of all needypersons that no individual, man or wo-man, has any right to< go from door todoor, asking help. Sometimes an impostor claims to be a minister, or the son ofa minister, or of some friend of the personto whom he applies, and he wants moneyto get to some other place; lie has beenrobbed, or he has lost his purse, or he hasfeiledito receive an expected remittance,orili»-ila*bcen sent to obtain aid to builda church, or to aid a mission school, orsome other good work. Believe him not.If the beggar bo a woman, believo hernot. Do not be imposed upon by a silkdre88~aad India shawl. The most cuusing impaators,, men and women, drosswell. They steal the means-to do it. Benot deceived thereby...

    The ways and. means TtV do good aremuny. The pocr yc have with you al-ways, and whensoever yc will, .yunuiy dothem good. It will do you good to looktlhem up, to inquire into their- condition,and to personally minister to their neces-sities. But peripatetic beggars are, inalmost all cases, arrant knaves-anai-1 im-postors. Beware of wolves in shartiality for t l» wool-grower, ina late issuo gays that a large portion of

    'the coming Ohio and Michigan clip iscontracted for at from 05 to lo cents papound, and that transactions, even at thesefigures, were at a stand-still, for the rea-son that the farmers want 80 cents andlook for ninety cents, if. wot $1.00, perpound. We would advise growers not tocontract their wool at anything less thana very high, price, yet awhile. Keep itgrowing, and have it long and strong.Shear in good season and put up in No,l_good condition, and when they havo itready, post theniselres as to ti>» market,and sell when they can get the top prioefor wool of tho class and condition inwhich theirs will grade. Under someconditions it will pay to hold for a highermaikc'i than that ranging at tlxo time ofshearing; but few farmers have the fecility for storing wool so that it will not losein weight and sightliness by boing heldpa&t the marketing season. Without'ta*king this shrinkage into account, withmost farmers the money in-hand atsliear-lng tiino can l>e made to earn more • titancould'bo realised by any probable.- ad-vance inrpiices..— M'aUcm H'.nvl..
