Government officials attended the sale for the purpose of preventing the disposal of any official documents which might have remained among the paj>ers' of the general. Rut the majority had already been seized by the authorities some three years ago, when Count Job von Mauteuffel, the re¬ probate son. had pledged aquanitv of them to some Frankfort banker in return for a loan of 80.000 marks. ’ —The poor old field marshal , w® was a most charming and universally popular man, the very soul of honor and chivalry, was most unfortunate in his domestie af fain*. His eldest son, Charles, was an ec¬ centric creature who quarreled with his family, sj>cnt some time in the United States, and finally returned home toilie in a madhouse at Srhoeneberg. The sworn 1 son, Grant Edwin, a particular favorite of the late emperor, was ol^Bged to resign his commission of major fp the 1st guard reg iment in consequence of his having in dorsed some notes for his reprobate Job, and having secured his transfer tojHte colonial forces, is now endeavoring to re¬ trieve, if not the family fortunes, at any rate the sadly tarnished family name, in the wild of Africa. Count Job, the spendthrift and drunkard who to principally responsible for the fi¬ nancial ruin of his house, is now a fugitive from his creditors, having left Berlin se¬ cretly with his wile (net* Countess Schrnet tow,) anil is believed to lie concealed some¬ where in the south of France. I might add that he is a fugntivc from justice, too, for not only are several charges of fraud hanging over hi* head, but he to likewise credited with having placed for safe keep¬ ing in the Bank of England a number of important state documents once in the pos¬ session 0 / hi* father and of which he pro¬ poses to make improper use in order to ob¬ tain funds. The removal from the country’ of state pajiers is a criminal offense in Ger¬ many, and to most severely punished. Ji Count .Job ever gets caught by the Ger¬ man police it will in consequence go hard with him. lie is a tall, coarse and dissi¬ pated man, the very antithesis iu every re«iM-< t of his gallant and courtly father, the field murshul. Prince Constantine, duke of Sparta and crown prince of Greece, has been receiving a foretaste of the agreeable things tliat await him when he is called upon to suc¬ ceed his father on the throne. The cable dispatches the other day related liow a numlier of officers of the Athens garrison— officers of regiments constituting the pick and flower of the Grecian army—had in¬ vaded the office* of the Aerojiolis news¬ paper which lias lately lieen voting the de¬ mands for certain military reforms, nota¬ bly for the reduction of the standing army, how the*') officers after breaking in the doors had proceeded to demolish everything that they could find in the building, in¬ cluding presses, desks and the library; while the reporters and editors who hap |K>ned to lie on the premises were treated so brutally ns to necessitate tlrtflr being transferraod to a hospital. What the cable dispatches, however, did not say was that t(ie officers numbered some 150, that they were in full uniform and that they were attended by a large liotly of fully armed non-commissioned officers and men belong¬ ing to their respective regiments, part of whom formed a cordou across the street leading to the newspaper offices so us to prevent any interference on the part of the public or tlie police, while the remainder were equipped with axes and crowhars for the accomplishment of the work of de¬ struction. Prinec Constantino, with a decision and euergy that tfode well lor the future, im mediately caused the ringleaders, some twenty-five or thirty officers, to be placed under the strictest kind of arrest and by a royal warrant, acting as regent in the ab seaoe of his father the king, who to still at Copenhagen, dismissed in disgrace from the service, not only the colonels com¬ manding the three regiment* implicated in the affair, but also the general In military command of Athens, for remlssnesS of duty. At first there was a marked disposition to rebel against the crown prince, and for a day or two it looked as 11 the very throne was at stake. Not only were registers opened at the Military <*lnb for the reception of the signatures of those brother officers who sympathised with the culprits, but even the imputation of Athens Itself seemed to take port with the delinquent*, sending wagon loads of flowers and piles of con¬ gratulatory telegram* and letters to their Iwrrsck* and to the dub. Nay, even the minister of war showed signs of taking aid. with the officers' Indeed, the situation was critienl in the extreme.

Big Firm in a Tangle. “New York, Oct. 15.—On the application of Walter Stanton of the stock-brokerage firm of Coffin & Stanton, 7 2 Broadway, Judge Lacombe of the United States Cir¬ cuit court has appointed New¬ man Erb receiver of the firm’s as* sets. This application for a re¬ ceiver-ship is, it is claimed, a result of the failure of partners to agree. It is claimed by Mr. Stanton that the assets w ill be more than enough to cover the liabilities. The liabil ities are reported by Mr. Stanton a JP $3,600,000. The assets consist of stocks, bonds and credits, and it is claimed that by the method ad¬ opted for the winding up of the business of the firm loss and depre ciation willbe prevented. “Mr. Stanton in his petition asked for the dissolution of the co¬ partnership and an accounting of the dealings and transactions of the firm from the beginning. The business of the copartnership has been dealing in state, municipal, railroad, gas and water bonds. The firm lias a foreign branch at 43 Threadncedle street, London, run under tbe style of Coffin & Stanton, limited. , “Receiver Erb made the folioW ing statement: * “I have been absent in Europe mil summer, and only returned a few days ago.
