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.

EL'HOPEAN INTELLIGENCK. 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. AUGUSTA, GA., TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER (!, 1859. jj B1 TELEGRAPH. LATER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OP TUP. STEAMER NORTH BRITON. Farther Point, Sept. s.— The steamship North Briton has arrived with Liverpool dates to the afternoon of the 24th of August. At Liverpool on the 24th the cotton market was dull, with sales of 6,000 bales. Breadstuff’s and provisions were very duff and sales unimportant. At London Consols were quoted at 95J®95|.

It is now probable he will be able, while ou hi i way, to comply with the request oi the Demo cratic State Central Committee of Ohio to canvass that State, so tar as to deliver several speeches. From Cuba. —Advices from the Island cf Cuba to the 29iii uit., state that a recent loyal decree im poses great restrictions on the commerce of the Islaud, and will give much trouble to American shippers ai.d captains. A party of Americans had obtained permi sion to import cattle from Texastor sixmonths free of duty. The stock ((sugar at Havana w%3 246,1)00 boxes. The health of the Liana was good fur the season.

LIVERPOOL, Aug. 19. —There is no eflange in gene ral business this wees. The well advised measures of the Emperor of the French seem likely to give more confidents in th>- .stability of peace. Money continues abundant, and the apprehensions of an advance in the rate of discount have tort he prestni ceased. 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 of Cotton are again lower, tae middling and better grades of American being less ass ected than tbe lower grades. Kandy ahd dusty Cottons are almost unsaleable. We quote M ddiiug Orleans 7d ; Uplands ti 13-Hii. In Ilra zi.s the businesi has been very trilling. Egyptians are lower. There is only a moderate demand lor Kurata, which are rather lower. The sales for the week are 33,970 bales, of which 20,250 to the trade, 2980 to expart era, an 1 3740 io speculators.

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 grades above and below middling, aud l-lfid per lb in middling, which seems to be the quality most m demand. All sandy and dusty Cottons are qui e neglected. In Manchester there is very little doing, but in the absence of stocks of Goods and Yarns prices generally are fairly supported. Middling Orleans 7 I-16d ; Mobile C 15-lfc’d ; Uplands 9 13 16dper lb.
