An K*traer<tiurry Mwlndl e— Fifteen Yokur
I.tidies Kobbed.
< )ne of the mo?! remarkable cases of swindling
which has been perpetrated in a long time, came to
ngbt it. Now- York on Wednesday evening, in which
it appear?, as alleged fifteen young ladies of Phila
de’pLia w. 'e duped by a reisou named Johnson,
aiias Williams, who, under the pretence of hiring
them as teachers of music in Southern families,
managed to get them to New York, and then de
camped with about one bundrrd and fifty dollars of
their money and much of their baggage, amount
ing in value to between four and five thousand
dollars. The Tribune Las the following history of
this extraordinary swindle :
Abont a week or two ago Williams inserted, or
csu»ed to be insetted in the Philadelphia papers, an
advertisement calling tor fifteen young ladies to go
South, and there engage in private families for the
purpose c t giving instructions on the piano forte,
ilone were to apply unless good musicians, and
able ta bring the best :e; ornmendations. A high
salary was offered, and she advertiser seemed very
desirous of obtaining those only whose character
was beyond reproach. His rooms at the hotel were
literally beseiged, and several days were occupied
rn making selections from the various applicants of
those whom lie deemed best qualified to fill the
positions At lad the fifteen young ladies were
elected, and were instructed by Williams to make
immediate preparations for their departure south
ward. It e needless to recount the haste ihe cho
sen tew set about preparing to leave home and en- |
ter upon & new sphere of usefulness. Trunks were
packed, and painting.-, drawings and other works
if art were packed up to be exhibited to their new
patrons in accordance with the instructions of Wil
liams.
At length all was ready, and on Tuesday afternoon
the party, who had by this time become well ac
quainted with each olLer, started tor New York,
lader escort of Williams, whom they looked upon
as a benefactor. They reached here in the even
ing, e.*>d were disposed of by Williams at the va
rious hotels. L gbt were conducted to the Howard
House, two to the Ar.etor House, but where the re
mainder were tu!:< n has not yet transpired.
The young led . ? were told that they would not
need their trucks, and Williams took charge of all
tie baggage, sending it to the Stevens House,
where he himself put up, registering hie name as
H J . Johnson. Yesterday morning Williams visited
tin eight young ladies at the lfowaid, and told them
to he in readiness to start by eieamer at 4 o’clock
t id He said that he should not be able to see
them again until they started, as he Lad to arrange
Lis tank account, and see to the fixing up of some
private papers. Upon diet setting otl he made
item pay ttieir own tare on the cars, but told them
he should pay half their fare on the steamer. From
these a* the Howard, I * collected fl 5 from each,
which in. raid was half the fare, and then left them,
tc’hng them to he sure and be ready. At the ap
pointed time the eight ladies were ready, but still
Williams did not snake his appearance, nor have
they-ecu .my Dung of him since. At dark they
became alarmed, and told the proprietor of the
house of then- case. Search was made for their
flunks, but they could lot be lound, end then
word was sent to the police. Detective Slowey
repaired to the if- wnid, and aitei obtaining all the
P&rticulai? pi -ib'e, w.-nt in search of Williams,
bu f met with no s-occ'.hs The two young ladies
uho west to the AfiD-r could r.ct bo found. Upon
Luther search, Smwey found thirteen trunks at the
v ‘evens House, which were identified by some of
these at the Howard es their property. Two trunks
containing dresses and other property to the value
of 11100 were gone.
The whereabouts of the other young ladles could
not be ascertained by tlie ottioer, and no trace of
tt,& mean swindler could be got at. Johnson, alias
Williams, ia & man of pleasing adreea, 5 feet 6

learning the state of the case, told the young la

BV THE AFRICA.
The steamship Africa, which sailed from Liver
pool on the 20th of August, arrived at New York
ou Thursday.
The Conference at Zurich appears to be making
no headway. The telegraph auuouuces that the
Austrian and French plenipotentiaries had a con
ference ou the ICth, and that on the 17th the French
and Sardinian Ambassadors had a meeting.
It is asserted that the delay is partly attributable
to Austria’s sticking in matters of etiquette, espe
cially as regards the cession of Lombardy The
Austrian plenipotentiaries are represented to have
declined direct Conference with representatives of
Sardinia, who protest agaicst Lombardy being
charged with any por.ion of the Austrian debt.
The latest despatch, dated Zurich, August 18, says
that the day previous there was a conference be
tween the plenipotentiaries of France and Austria,
aud on the 19th one between Franca and Sardinia.
It further states that in the next sitting of the con
ference it was supposed that the question of the
boundary of Lombardy aud her participation in the
Austrian debt would be settled.
The directors of the “Great Ship Company” had
declined Mr. Lever’s offer to charter the Great
Eastern one voyage to America. It is announced
that the ship will leaue the Thames for the Nore on
the 'dd of September, and that she will proceed
thence to Portland, Dorsetshire, from which place
she will make a trial trip on the Bth to a distance
probably of five or six hundred miles. She will
then be prepared to start on or about the 15th of
September on a direct voyage to Portland, Maras,
or perhaps New York On this occasion passen
gers will t e carried at tares ranging from £lB to
£25, (all first class ) aud it is said that many appli
cations for berths had already beea received.
The second mate (John W. Moody) of the Am
erican ship Mary, arrived m the Tine, had been
found guilty of Wilful Murder by the coroner's
jury which investigated tho circumstances attend
ing the death of a seaman named Dauiel Witham
from ill treatment. Moody had been committed
for trial.
A petition in bankruptcy was filed on the 19th
against Mr, John Eiward Buffer, of the firm of
Smart &. Bulier, solicitors, London, who had ab
sconded with liabilities believed to exceed £ 100,-
000! He ia said to have misappropr ated >arge
sums intrusted to him as a solicitor and trustee.
Mr. Smart, his partner, is in no way implicated
in the chrrges.
The last steamer brought us news that a general
amnesty for political offences had been decreed
in France. This measure was followed on the
18ih by the publication of the annexed in the col
umns of the Mouiteur:
“All warnings which have been given to the
newspapers in France and colonies aro to be con
sidered as nou-issued.
“ The Minister of the Interior, in concert with
his colleagues, the Minister for Foreign Affairs,
aud Algiers, aud the Colonies, has ordered the ne
cessary measures to be taken to insure the imme
diate execution of the full and entire amnesty
granted by the Emperor.
“ Niue hundred aud twenty-two soldiers, sen
tenced for various offences, have been pardoned,
or the term of their imprieonmeist has been com
muied.”
The amnesty is said to have created great sur
prise and given general satisfaction in Paris, and
a hope was entertained that the laws of public
safety would be relaxed, and the liability of per
sons to very summary proceedings on mere sus
picion of political offence be done away with.
The Paris correspondent of the Daily News says
that the Emperor bad ordtred two government
steamers to leave immediately lor Algeria and
Guiana, to bring back political transports The
same writer conjectures the latest news from Italy
had something to do with the proclamation of the
amnesty, and that the impossibility of carrying out
the peace of Viliafranca in an Austrian seuse, had
made the Emperor rt fleet seriously ou tbe necessi
ty of uniting ail parties in France around his stand
ard.
It was generally reported in Paris that a duel
bad taken place between Marshals Uanrobert and
Neil, and that Uanrobert had been killed, but the
silence of the telegraph renders the rumor irnpro
bable.
The Paris Moniteur contains a decree to the
effect that foreign shares and securities may be ne
gotiated at the Bourse after two-fifths of their value
has been paid up. Previously it was necessary
that seven-tenths should be paid up.
The Efbperor Napoleon is eaid to have sent or
ders to Marsha! Yaillant in Italy not to aliow the
troops there to receive ovations frtm the Italians,
but to maintain a reserved attitude.
The projected fortifications at Antwerp were ex
citing increased attention at Paris. It was expect
ed that as soon as the bill authorizing the works
passed the Belgian Legislature, the Moniteur would
contain a decree for the formation of an army of
the north, to consist of sixty thousand men, with
headquarters at Lille.
The Paris Bourse on the 19tb wa3 firm, and the
three per cents, closed at G 9.15.
General Garibaldi, on requitting the command of
the Chasseurs of the Alps, intimated the fact in an
order of the diy.
A journal of Turin states that the army of the
League of Central Italy is to consist of 10,000 men,
under the command, as already stated, of General
Garibaldi. The other generals are Ribotti, Mazza- !
capo and Pinelli.
The King of Sardinia arrived at Turin on the 17th, j
and was welcomed with great crowds, which had
assembled at the railway station. The National
Guard aud the Piedmontese troops were drawn up
in a line along the passage of his Majesty. Gen.
Ulloa had sent in his resignation, which had been
accepted.
The National assombly of Modena had been open
ed by Signor Farina, who deposited the powers
given him as Dictator in the hande of the Deputies,
urging them to express freely and calmly their
wishes for the definite settlement of the oouatitutk u
of the country. Iu addressing himself to Europe he
said : “We are ready to give to the civilized world
al the guaranties of order at d peace, conditionally
that liberty is assured to us, and that Italy shall be
restored to the Italians.” The Assembly voted an
address cf thanks to the Emperor Napoleon.
The friends of Italy were said to be uneasy at the
presence of the young Duke of Tuscany in Paris.
The Parma Gazette announces that the Govern
ment of the Duchy had given orders for the pur
chase of four thousand muskets, and invited the offi
cers aud men of the Corps of Riflemen of the
Alps, who had been disbanded, to take service
under Parma
From Austria we learn that Count Leo Thun had
declined to accept the Ministry of the Interior. It
was reported that the Emperor was getting impa
tient at the delay in the Ducal restorations. The
Minister of the Interior, Baron Bach, had been
named as Minister to Rome. There was a report
that an Austrian oorps d’armee was to be concan
trated near Rovigo, on the road to the Legations and
to Modena.
The official Wiener Zeitung contains a list of
numerous promotions on account of the battle of
Solferino.
Cholera prevailed in Spain, but it was confined to
the province of Murcia.
The Czar of Uu sia had presented the Sultan of
Turkey with the decoration of the order of St.
Andrew, in diamonds valued at one million pias
ters, in acknowledgment of the reception recently
given to the Grand Duke Constantine.
Amiable relations are said to have been re-estab
lished between the Austrian and French Ministers
at Constantinople.
Sir H. Bulwer had explained that the reason for
tfce visit of the British squadron to Alexandria
was to do honor to the contemplated visit of the
Sultan.
The Calcutta mails of July 16th arrived at Aden
on the Bth of August. The KiDg of Oade had
been released. About 5000 of the local European
force in Bengal and the provinces had taken their
discharges. Only one man of the mutinous sth
Europeans, at Bemampore, remained under arrest.
New duties and stamps on receipts and bank notes
had been proposed in oeuncil.
The Zurich Conference.— The Independence
Beige mentions a rumor now current in Paris to
the effect that Austria declined to discuss with Sar
dinia the cession of Lombardy. It is urged that
Lombardy is ceded to the Emperor Napoleon, ai d
not to Sardinia, and that Sardinia has no mo: ?
right to interfere in the details of the cession than
Austria will have to interfere with the manner of
the Emperor Napoleon’s after cession of the same
territory to Piedmont.
A Paris letter in the same paper says :
“Some particulars of what took place in the first
sittings of the Congress have come to me from a
very authentic source. Tho first sitting presented
nothing of importance ; after an exohange of pow
ers a preliminary conversation on general facts was
opened. It was only at the second one that things
took a more serious turn. When the points agreed
on at Viliafranca, which stipulate for the return to
the Duchies of their priuces were mentioned, the
Sardinian Plenipotentiary declared that it was im
posable for him to adhere to that clause, and that
Lis Instructions enjoined him not to consent to a
proposition which Piedmont could never accept.
An animated discussion then arose, which was sup
ported by Baron de Bourqueney aud Count de
Colloredo against the Sardinian Plenipotentiary,
and it became at length so warm that the last nam
ed representative was obliged to leave. Private
iufetviews have since taken place, but nothing has
shaken the determination of M. Desambrois, as his
instructions on the point are precise. The matter
has been referred to Vienna, Turin, and Paris. It
follows as a matter of course that the Sardinian
Cabinet will maintain theßame attitude, uule e hs
Emperor Napoleon should weigh so heavily on
King Victor Emanuel as to induce him to yield.

Ihe Cotton market has again been dull, and this is
now the third week that tbe trade have Lought less than
their estimated louauiaption, though exporters and
speculators have operated to a fa r extent. Holders
continue to offer their stocks freely, and a ; i descriptions

LIVERPOOL, Aug. 19— Cctlon— The market has
been very dull all the week, but ends with a slightly
better feeling. Cotton is still freely offered, and at]
qualities must be quoted rather lower, say )d per lb in

middling, which seems to be the quality most m demand.
All sandy and dusty Cottons are qui e neglected. In
