Wednesday Morning, Aprils, 1807.
Coventor Jenkins.
Tbe Millcdgtvillo ttouthern Recorder of tbe
2d iuslanl says: “ Wo ace tlmt somo of our co-
temporaries arc becoming a little restive as to
the whereabouts of Governor Jenkius, and are
desirous of hearing from him. We have heard
from him Indirectly, ami can assure the anxious
inquirers that Governor Jenkins la not asleep or
indifferent to live interests and welfare of the
State. Ho Is calmly, coolly and constitutionally
surveying the late action of Congress, and our
readers may rest assured that when ho speaks, it
will bo liko a statesman, who has fully examined
every point, and will advise nothing from inoro
policy. His own honor, and the honor of Geor
gia, is loo dear to him to act the schemer, politi
cian, or political bartcrcr.
“ What Governor Jcuklus is now doing, can
not be done in n day or a week. It requires
much thought, legal talent, Ac., to sec clearly
What must be done, and how it should bo done.
It the Constitution has any meaning or eflect,
Governor Jenkins will know it tadore he returns
homo. Wo, therefore, advise tho people of the
State to remain quiet until thoir Governor spenks.
He will do so at the proper time."
Confiscation.
The 1’rovidenco Journal, one o! the leading
Kadlcal Kepublicau papers of New England,
commenting upon Mr. Stevens’ proi>09ed confis
cation measure, says: "Considering that it was
—liB uo oul,inrst °f passion, hut was prepared iu cold
,$ blood, by the oldest and most influential mem
ber of the House, it is the indication of a char
acter and the ioreshndowing of a policy which
HsjJ should he carefully noted by the American peo
m
jji
pie. The speech is able, clearly conceived and
tersely expressed; but it is pervaded front be
ginning to end with that viudictive atul remorse
less spirit which is inseparably associated with
Mr. Stevens’ public character. He scouts the
doctrine of forgiveness of injuries, and puts his
own construction upon the parable of the Prodi
gal Son. He would wholly obliterate everything
like tenderness anfl mercy from our policy to
wards tho peoplo of the South.
J “The hill has been postponed to December.—
Hut the very conception is appalling, and lie
must have an iron heart who could calmly sit
down and deliberately work out its details of
min and woo to 9omo six millions of his lcllow
countrymen. It would convert tho South into a
desert and make its people beggars. Should it
pass, it would bring a reproach on Uie country
I which nothing could remove, ami the hard and
cruel spectacle that would be presented by its
:. j execution would of itself annihilate all that is
p;jjl generous and noble in’American character.—
! Heaven deliver us from such legislation as this
f which Mr. Stevens proposes.”
Well may the Journal pronounce the concep-
I tion even of Mr. Stevens’ confiscation scheme
! appalling, and well may it say that “he must have
an iron heart who could calmly sit down and do
liberatcly work out its details of ruin and woe to
• six millions ot his fellow-countrymen.” Belore
us hangs a photograph of the man, taken while
, sitting iu the congressional hall, who, “solitary
|i and alone,” put his "appalling” measure in mo-
it tion. We sec no trait of—what the South does
not crave—mercy in his face. Callous and cold
■ it appears, and among ten thousand otlior pho-
' tographs, his would be selected as representing
, I that individual who would propose the enaet-
Q; ’ ment of just such a measure as he has proposed
" , and advocated. There is in his eye that mali
; cious and vindictive expression, which betrays
! his nature. He is not like other men. His in
stincts are neither human nor divine. Had he
been born in France, and lived in tho days of that
French Revolution which brought the head of
.118 uuiunuuiutj ^uocu IV llic UlVCh, lie nvuhl
have been the peer of the most cruel jacobin of
' them all. Thunk God, that leader thougli he
has been, evidence i9 daily presented to us that
his confiscation scheme will prove a failure.—
Left alone to the decision of the Radical Repub
licans in Congress, and it would be voted down

Then and Now,

j ,j lished the following extracts from a letter writ-
IV. ten in 1881 by the Hon. Joijn A. Loo an, now
1 j lone of the Radical Representatives in Congress
j from the State of Illinois:
Washington, Jan. 27,1801.
DeahFuiknd: * * * I almost despair
of our glorious country; there is but little hope
of auy adjustment; the Republicans are arrogant
id : and defying; they have adopted such a course
j / here as to irritate instead of soothing tho angry
i , feelings of Southern men, and unless they come
to some terms very soon the last hope is gone,
j * * * There is no use of our talking about
' 1 ■ coercion to make the Mate* come back. They may
be subdued, but never made to stay in the Union,
: unless some safe compromise is made by the Re-
. publicans. They talk of war ; this would be

God preserve us from the horrible scenes of
War. Your friend, John A. Looan.
! We linvc noticed so many changes in thcopin-
ons of men, previous to, during, nml since the
:losc of the war, that we do not regard the in-
lance relerred to above as at all remarkable.—
These changes, however, should invoke charity
in speech as well as action—tlmt charity which
‘coveretii a multitude of sins”—sins political
is well as carnal. The Southern secessionists and
|‘ rebels" may surely be pardoned their action,
.ivlien political distinction is conferred upon such
Northern gentlemen ns the Hon. Mu. Looan,
who, then, in 1801, uttered the sentiments attri-
mted to him in the foregoing extracts, hut who
aow occupies a seat in the Congress of the Uni-
ji led States.
Onr Coming Deliverance.
. Mr. Greeley says in a late dale of the Tribune :
1 “ Every loyal citizen, blnck or white, is dia
led, by the two reconstruction acts, to have a
. voice in the good work of restoration, with at
(east four-fifths of those who have been rebels.—
»he remaining fifth we hope to see enfranchised
'.very sood. Congress lias provided lor tlmt in
lie pending constitutional amendment, and wo
■ rust tlmt its consummation will not long he de-
i rtyed. Tho Sonth clearly understands, as we
! vo, tlmt the way to this lies through a prompt
ud cheerful conformity to the requirements of
’ongress The South seems to be acting well

1 Thank you, Mr. Greeley, for your good wishes 1

Br ODR CORRESPOND BUT.
Jfc. Editor: Having received, through the lion
R. C. Wintbrop, an Invitation to tho above meet,
Ing, I left for New York on the 17th ultimo, but
owing to tho recent frcslicts did not resell Hint
city until tho adjournment.
I was, however, in time to sco most of tho
trustees, and to lmvo several interviews with Mr.
Winthrop and Dr. Scare. Tho facts elicited du
ring these conferences will pcrhnps prove Inter
estlng to tho readers of the Intelligencer.
As seen by the published proceedings, tho
Board for tho present contemplate only the aid
ing of such primary or common schools as may
he now or hereafter established, and owing to the
prior engagements of tho time of the General
Manager, (Dr. B. Scare, President of Brown Uni
versity,) this assistance cannot he immediate.—
For several months Dr. S. will have his leisure
lime occupied with reading the thousands of
applications already filed, and in collecting infor
mation necessary and antecedent to carrying the
plan into effect.
The trustees do not have in view the supplant
ing of our common school system by that of the
New England States, or the introduction among
us of Nortliorn teachers, but will confine them
solves to such means and agencies as we have
among us. The plan of operation will in no
wise come in conflict with auy sentiment, insti
tation, or custom peculinrto nsr but. OS has been
evinced by expressions from the press, and the
best instructions, it will commend itself to the
people as eminently wise, judicious, and prncli
cable.
In the promotion of normal schools (/'. e.
schools where the "art of teaching" is taught) it
is designed either to establish a central normal
institution, or to endow a normal department
some of our present colleges, or to purchase nor
mal scholarships in such institutions as liavo this
department. It will probably be the latter part
of the summer before any appropriations can be
made. By that time the Executive Committee
hope to render assistance in establishing common
schools where most needed, and to aflord normal
instruction to such as make application for it.—
No individual appropriations will be made the
present year, except to such young men or ladies
as contemplate teaching as a profession. To
such small appropriations will be made to ena
ble them to prosecute a collegiate and normal
course. The latter will bo insisted on, as the art
of teaching is regarded of equal, if not pain
mount importance. Applicants should make an
estimate of the least possible amount necessary
to meet their wants, for tho crying destitution of
all tho Southern States is to be considered, and
only $60,000 of the fund can be used annually
to meet the demand. To facilitate the onerous
duties of the General Manager, the writer was
very unexpectedly tendered the appointment o f
General Traveling Agent, to collect information
desired by the Executive Committee. Having
had no previous notice of the honor thus con
ferred, and consequently not sufficient time to
consider whether it will conflict with other pre
vious engagements of my time, I have not sig
nified an acceptance. In the event of accept
ance, I will make a tour through the States, and,
when practicable, visit such sections as make
application for aid. In the meantime, apprecia
ting as I do tho situation of those who, for the
want of means, have been compelled to suspend
the prosecution of their studies, and feeling a
deep and abiding interest in the education and
elevation of the poorer and ignorant classes, I
will, in advance, solicit communications from
every State, and especially from those sections
which have suffered most by the war. I shall
probably visit Dr. S. soon, and will then give my
personal attention to every application forwarded
to me at Forsytli, Georgia.
When application is made, let the individual
oorporalion otato definitely iu wlmt way Rlld
to what extent assistance is desired. In conclu
sion, I would say a word of Mr. Peabody, who
is a gentleman of enlarged views, fine practical
sense, and very liberal feeling toward us. In
private circles he expressed deep sympathy for
us—a sympathy not of that superficial or senti
mental character peculiar to the conservative
element North, but one which has been, and I
doubt not will be again evinced, by material aid
to our educational and industrial interests. As
remarked by one of the first of our statesmen,
“ he is indeed a great man." Endowed by nature
with vigorous and comprehensive powers of
mind, an indomituble energy, and a never-tiring
industry, lie lias superadded the culture of many
years of labor and thought, and is now, iu tbe
language of one of the trustees, “ truly one of
the most remarkable men of the age.” The
guest whom he has honored witli an hour's
interview, is at a loss which to admire more, the
philanthropist, or tho thinker; his almost prodi
gal beneficence, or apparently illimitable attain
ments.
He leaves soon for Eiigluml, but thinks of re
turning to the United States about the latter
part of the next year, when he will make a tour
through the Soutnem States to witness the opera
tions of the schools which shall have been aided
or established by the Board of Trustees. If re
ceived with that cordiality and magnanimity
characteristic of our people, 1 have good reason
to believe he will make an appropriation to our
institutions probably more liberal than the lirsj

■taring and Nttccossml Robbery.
A wdl-concorted and entirely successful rob
bery occurred lu Jeffersonville yesterday morn
ing, throwing the community into a slate of un
usual excitement. Tho facts, as near as can bo
ascertained, wero aa follows:
About two o'clock in tho morning, l’atsy
Dean, the watchman of the new passenger depot
of tho Jeffersonville, Madison, and Indianapolis
Railroad Company, on Front street, was np-
proachod by a party of about oiglit, apparently
negro men, and asked by one of them If that
building wss a hotel. Ho had only tinio to reply
tlmt it was not, when tlicv seized him and tied
him securely; they then blindfolded and gagged
him.
One of tho crowd avowed that ho would kill
tho watchman, uiid was only prevented apparent
ly by tho interference of one or two of the crowd,
who consented to spare his life on tho condition
of silenco. This condition was hard to break, ns
Uie gag applied wna large and light.
They then carried the watchman up tho stair
way, and laid him down on the balcony. Two
of them guarded him, wliilo the other six pro
ceeded to forco on entrance to the room occu
pied as an office by J. T. Banders, Esq., Pay
master of tho Jclfcrsonvillo and Indianapolis
Railroad Company. An entranco was e flee ted,
and the robbers found but too easily wlmt they
sought—the railroad’s funds.
It happened that Mr. Banders lmd been up till
a late hour counting out the money in his hands
with a view of starting up the railroad yesterday
morning to pay oil the employes of the road.—
This money, amounting to over $20,000, lie lmd
unfortunately, after placing it in a tin box, plac
ed it on top or tlie safe, forgetting to put it with
in. The robbers helped themselves to this,
opened the inner door by taking oil the lock
with tools brought for the purpose, and took their
departure—going down by a different stairway.
The watchman being left alone, as lie slates,
began to struggle to extricate himself from the
cords with which lie was bound. After a while
one of the robbers returned and partly released
him. Finally, in about an hour and a half, lie
succeeded in getting loose. He immediately
raised an alarm, and proceeded to the house of
Superintendent Scott, about two squares distant.
The Superintendent and others, when aroused,
hastened to the spot and found tlmt tho money
was gone, but nothing else was disturbed. The
tools used in opening the window and taking ofl
the door-lock—a large lmtchet, a screw-driver,
etc.—were found in the room; likewise a me
morandum book, which lmd been left in the box;
also a suit of clothes tied up iu a bundle, which
the robbers had brought to use in their disguise.
A great many conjectures have been made in
regard to the authors of the deed. No one thinks
tlmt they were negroes. The color was only
adopted as n disguise. While there is no actual
clue to them, it may be warrantable to say tlmt
suspicion fastens upon three or four persons.—
The tin box, some soldier overcoats, and a num
ber of tools were found in a lot about a square
from the scene of the robbery. The watchman
says that the party seemed to know him quite
well, and called his name several times. One of
tho two left to guard him spoke in a familiar
voice, hut fie could not identify him.
The most vigorous measures are on foot to de
tect the robbers. Officer Bligb, of Louisville;
Marshal Akers, of New Albany, and Marshal
Baxter, of Jeffersonville, have the affair in charge,
and it is confidently believed that the guilty
parties will be apprehended. The watchman is
able to givo quite a minute description of the
gang. The money was iu brown envelopes,
which were scaled and the name of the employee
of the road written in pencil across the back.
A reward of $5,000 is offered for tbe recovery
of the money and conviction of the thieves,
one-lmlf the amount for either.

The Railroad Extension.
We are truly glad to learn from the Bain
bridge Argus of the 29th inst. that one hundred
and thirty thousand dollars in bonds and indi
virtual stock have been subscribed in Decatur
county for the extension of the Atlantic & Gull
Road to that point, and tlmt the remaining
twenty thousad dollars will be subscribed at a
meeting to be held in Bainbridge to-morrow.
The Argus, commenting upon the noble efforts
of the people there in behalf of the nroicct
says:
It was greatly to be desired tlmt at the late
meeting of the Board of Directors of the A. A
G. Railroad, on the 20th inst., delegates from
Decatur county could have presented the sub
scription of the county, fully covering the
amount required to. complete the road to Baiu-
bridge. The failure to report at that meeting
could not be avoided. Tlio meeting of our
citizens on next Tuesday, it is believed, will
result most satifactorily, especially if tlie Presi
dent of tlie Company, Col. John Screven, should
favor us with his presence.
As an evidence tlmt our people are not only in
real earnest, but oblivious of impending “volca
noes,” we will mention tlmt nn enterprising
gentleman of this city, who is already a libera
subscriber to tlie road, proposes to be one ot
twenty to make up tlie dfcficit of $50,000, pro
vided tlie meeting on Tuesday does not raise
more than $50,000. This number of properly
holders could afford to strain a point in view of
tlie great benefit to accrue to themselves and the
people of the county. Twenty-five hundred
dollars would bo all tlmt each one would have
to subscribe to make the remaining $50,000 ad
the
judged by the Hoard as necessary to finish
road to the banks ot the Flint.
It would beau achievement for Decatur coun
ty, worthy ofdistingulslied remembrance, should
she, regardless of tlie present forbidding aspects
ot the country, dispatch her delegates to Savan
nah with a subscription of two hundred thou
sand dollars to the stock of the A. A G. Road,
with the assurance tlmt the instalments, when
clue, would be promptly pnid.
'UTIES on Umbrellas, Ac.—The Presidcut
approved the joint resolution providing tlmt
mu after tho 25th ol March there shall be
[led, collected and paid upon umbrellas, para,
s and sunshades, imported from foreign coup
es, when made of silk, uo lower rale of duty
in now Imposed upon piece and dress silks,
nely, six per cent, nil valorem; and when
ide of other materials than silk tlie duty shall
fifty per cent, ad valorem. And that wire
*al furniture springs imported from foreign
ntries, manufactured ol iron wire, shall be
tired to pay tbe same rate of duty us now
: d on iron wire, namely, two cents per
and fifteen per cent, ad valorem.
Stanton and the President.
"Videx,” the Washington City correspon
dent of tlie Charleston Daily News, in his letter
to that paper of tlie 27tli ultimo, says:
Stanton and tho President are at loggerheads,
and the former will certainly lie removed if Con
gress retires from the field until next December,
so as to do away witli tlie necessity of looking
to nn immediate confirmation of tlie War Minis
ter’s successor.
Yesterday, when tho adjournment question
was running high in tlie Senate, who should
stalk into that Chamber Imt the burly form of
Stanton. The latter lias come to understand the
imminence of his removal, and relies solely upon
obtaining from Congress the passage of a resolu
tion of conditional adjournment, to save him
from such ignominious retirement. It was easy
to note, even from tho Senate gallery yesterday,
how zealously he had entered upon tho work oi
circumventing the Administration in the deter
mination to remove him.
While tlie debate upon tlie adjournment was
warmest, the wily old Minister moved from the
ear of one Senator to that of another, until the
whole Radical round was completed, begging
that he might not be left alone to face the Fresh
dential wrath. A subsequent vote upon the
proposition indicates that the councils of Stan
ton had but little effect upon the desire of the
Senate to go home without looking to a reconvo
cation before the allotted time in December next.
But in the House lie fared better, and that body
is likely to hold stubbornly out against any propo
sition lliat does not look to re-usseinbling upon
nroclamatioQ of the presiding officer iu each
House, at least twice between now and next fall.
Stanton discovers that notwithstanding the po
tency of the Tenure of Office bill, that act docs
not prevent tho Executive from removing a
member of the Cabinet, not appointed by him,
and lienee his alarm. While "the rump’^stands
by to veto the nomination of his successor, tlie
Secretary Icel3 tolerably secure, but witli that
stay gone, away goes tbe incumbent, and “ none
so poor as to do him reverence.”
Coffee Culture in Florida —A company
is forming in New York to introduce the culti
vation of coffee on a largo scale in South Flor
ida. It is proposed to engage about 2,000
laborers. Capital $9,000,000, ol which 10 per
cent, only is to be collected for the first year.
The company propou: to turn an honest penny
by every available resource, such as fisheries,
sale ot lumber, salo'ol lauds to settlers, elc.
The scheme is fully set forth iu tlie New York
World ol tlie 21st, and looks exceedingly well
on paper. The company, by this showing, will
in 10 years net $20,905,500. The stock offered
is 80,000 shares, of $300 each. It is to be hoped
that the project will bo successfully executed, as
it would afford profitable employment to freed
labor, and be an .lnvuluable adjunct to tho
growth of our sister State of tbe flowery land.—

A Woman witli n Living Snake or Liz-
znrd In Her Stuniacli.
Die wife of Mr. Parker, who recently pur
chased an interest in the Anamosa Slone Quarry,
has been made cognizant of the terrible truth
that she lias within her stomach a living snake
or lizzard. For tho past live years siio has suf
fered almost everything possible for a human be
ing, and was supposed to be gradually dying
from consumption. Some two weeks since a
German from Lisbon, Linn county, being in
town, was requested to make an examination
into her caso to see if any remedy could be de
vised to relieve the intense sufferings. The
physician visited her, and became at once satis
fied that there was a living animal within her
stomach. On Thursday last tho starvation pro
cess was begun, and continued for five days, little
or no nourishment being taken. During this time
the animal repeatedly moved upward and into
the throat, producing terrible and almost fatal
strangulation, and making it necessary to admin
ister salt to drive it downward. At such times
the lower part of tlie throat would he pressed
outward in a most perceptible and revolting
manner. On Monday last the attempt was made
to dislodge the loathesome creature bv placin'' a
pan of heated milk near tlie patient’s mouth
ami permitting her to inhale the steam. A poul
tice ol onions and garlic was applied to the
stomach, but, through misunderstanding, the
onions were cooked, and their strength thereby
mostly destroyed. Tlie experiment, howover,
was tried, but tlie animal moved up only a short
distance, a green slime being omitted from the
mouth. The patient is greatly prostrated by
her abstinence and terrible suffering, but another
ellort will soon be made to relieve her, although
it seems almost certain that the animal, what
ever it is, lias grown so large as to make its egress
through tlie throat impossible. We understand
tlmt the patient believes her tormenter to be a
su ake.
The ease is attracting great interest, and any
new developments will be carefully noted for the
benefit of our readers.—Anamosa (Iowa) Eureka.
Cioar Boxes.—As many business men arc
subjecting themselves to a heavy penalty by
their ignorant violation of the thirty-second
section of the revenue law passed at the close
of the Thirty-ninth Congress, it is stated for
the iiilorniation of all eoncerened, that tlie
section in question enacts :
That any person who shall sell, give away or
otherwise dhqiosc of any empty cigar box or
boxes which have been stamped, without first
defacing or destroying such stamp, shall, on
conviction ot either offense, he liable to a pen
alty of one hundred dollars or to imprisonment
not exceeding sixty deys, or both, in the discre
tion of the court, with the costs of the trial ■
and it shall be lawful for any cigar inspector or
revenue officer lo destroy any empty cigar box
upon which a cigar stamp shall be found?’
New Social Custom.—Lady Bailey had a
large missionary party at her residence in Bel
grave Square, on Monday evening last. Four
hundred cards of invitation were Issued, and
three hundred and fifty-three attended ot the
nobility and gentry interested iu so valuable a
cause. The bishop ot the Mauritius and several
missionaries spoke of their respective stations
in a most interesting manner, and the parly
senarated at uciit twelve o’clock, highly gratified
with their Christian auU interesting entertain*
meat. It is much to lie wished that other* who
huve bouses, Ac for such assemblages, would
follow ht-r ladyship’s example. The party par-
took ol tea and coffee on entoring, nnd a cold

Wotnen at the National, Capital—Their
Influence and Character.
Tho Washington correspondent of tho Now
York Cititen has tho following chapter In his
hist letter:
It Is n Btrnngo fact that women are at the bot
tom of nearly all tho chicanery and wirepulling
which disgraces our national capital. Wliilo
somo ot them arc clamoring lor more rights and
a larger Bcopo of exertion, others are silently
nnd assiduously at work,.accomplishing with
tho shrewd diplomacy nnd instinctive trickery
of their sex, greater and more astonishing feats
ol Influence tunn tho proudest statesman of tho
land can boast of. For Instance, I linvc in my
mind’s cyo one whoso nnme has figured quito
prominently in tho public prints of late, whoso
power is IhnitlesB. To speak in tlie vernacular
of tho lobby, she has “got a hold” on some
one, and she uses it unsparingly. Now bo it
known, that politicians seldom do anything for
mere friendship’s sake, but generally look for
ward to selfish reciprocity, and, therefore, it is
that hundreds of meritorious men are cast
aside, and hundreds of others, without a scin
tilla of foundation for their claims, if true merit
is a criterion, are advanced nnd petted by the
“ powers that lie." Fenr is a more potent agent
than either friendship or expected reciprocity
nnd a throat is wortli a dozen letters of recoin
mendation. So il is Hint the female referred to
succeeds. She threatens and is obeyed. She
demands a share of tlie profit in tho General Or
der business, for instance, and tlie poor victim
who is influential with the President, must needs
go to that dignitary and obtain t lie required boon,
or sillier worse than a thousand deaths by failing
or refusing to comply with the demand. In
short, blackmailing is this woman’s “ hold.”
Somewhere in the past history of a certain civil
otficcr of tho Government, there is a record of a
romantic, or rather a “ Lothario” episode. Ho
wooed and won; but did not honorably treat a
fair maiden. The affair was hushed up, and the
episode buried. Until recently it merely rankled
in the memories of the lew who were personally
acquainted with it; but now it has been unearth
cd, and its ghost is made effective in frightening
a poor mortal into obedience to the commands
of its grandmother. To speak plainly, tlie Gov
ernment is mulcted for the “ lmsli money.”
Then there is another woman, whose power is
in her bewitching ankles, pretty black eyes, and
curly hair. She lias grown passe, blit is still in
fluential in certain directions. Formerly she
aspired to large game, ami rarely failed to ac
complish her object; but for a year past she lias
been obliged to content herself with smaller
jobs, aud works through subalterns of low de
gree. Her reputation was firmly established
long since, ami for a time she was courted and
flattered by applicants for high favors; but she
became too common, or rather used her powers
too openly, and scattered her smiles and smirks
with a too lavisli hand. If she had confined her
diplomacy to one avenue, instead of using it
promiscuously, she would have retained her
influence. It is too late for her to rectity her
error; but she manages yet to pick up a few
profitable crumbs, anil in short is now a second
class office brokeress. She is unscrupulous
and does not hesitate to stoop to informalities
in the way of obtaining notes from one officer
to another, asking for favors, and has been
known to inveigle certain private secretaries
into writing them with an apparent air of
official character. For instance, a note of this
kind was effective in procuring an appointment
lor one of her own sex in the Treasury Depart
ment, after which she undertook to levy black
mail on her victim; but was toiled in tlie attempt
lw tho honest brusquerie of General Spinner —
1 his woman has become historical, as her name
has been connected with some of the most im
portant features ot governmental policy.
There is still another woman who is entitled
to prominence, when female lobbyists are under
discussion. She does not live in Washington

A Fliiladelpliln Financier Allowed Heavy

The event of tho pnst week in Philadelphia,
BY TELEGRAPH.

NEW YORK ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES
who passed himself oil' as f». M. Ilosea, of Ciii
cinnati, a Lieutenant Colonel in the army. lie
married Miss Ettie Royer, daughter of Dr. Lewis
Royer, a wealthy and aristocratic retired drug
merchant. After a courtship of four months the
marringe ceremony look place at tho residence
ol the bride’s father, on the 13th instant, and
shortly after tlie happy event the twain started
tor New i ork, intending to lake passage in tlie
next steamer for Europe. They put up at the
l' ltlli Avenue Hotel. Certain facts became
known to Dr. Royer that seemed to implicate
the moral standing of his son-in-law. Police of
ficers were brought in requisition, and tho sus
pected man was decoyed back to Philadelphia
where he was taken into custody. He was trans
ferred from tlie gilded walls of a first-class hotel
to a cheerless and lonely cell in the county pri
son within twenty-four hours.
He is one of the handsomest male bipeds upon
whom our optics ever rested. In stature about
live feet eight, with a complexion like motlior-oi-
pearl, a beautiful eye, and hair like floss silk lie
stood before the Alderman a model for an
Auonis.
Dr Royer testified before tlie Alderman that
he advanced $2,000 to him on the morning oi his
marriage receiving for it a draft on Cincinnati
in the 1' list National Batik, of which city lie
claimed to have upon deposit $0,800. Tlie draft
was dishonored. Another witness, Mr. Dttesse
deposed that defendant had victimized him in a
corresponding manner.
It was made manifest by testimony that the
Lieutenant-Colonel L. M. Hosen, of Cincinnati
personated by defendant, is a very different man
bom the accused, and that he is engaged iu the
wholesale dry goods trade there.
, The magistrate committed the accused, in de
fault of $8,000 bail. According to all accounts
he has played a game of exceeding knavery, and
his effrontery nnd sangfroid have exceeded any
thing recoroed since the days ot Monroe Edwards.
If ball that is told of Him be true, ho ia a sort of
mixture between Aaron Burr nnd Colouol Cross
lie went to prison with reluctance, after trying
to induce his father-in-law to enter bail for bin?
tie claims to be entirely innocent.
George F. Brook testified to tlie prisoner’s rep
resenting himself as the nephew of Governor
Aiken, of South Carolina.
William Worrick, Jr., hairdresser at the La
I terra, testified tlmt sometime since he was con
versing with the prisoner, who thou represented
himself ns the son ot Governor Aiken, of South
Caroliua; lie said he was in tho Union army and
was wounded at the battle of Island No id • wng
ed ns Third Lieutenant.
