[si’tCIAL UORHKSl'ii.NUINCi: C0LUM1IU8 K.NQUIRKR.] New Vork, Juuuiry 12, 1874. Prinoo Harry Gonet has not been onp- turod, nod outraged justioo haH just clap ped ex-Sheriff Bronuan and his deputy, Mr. Shields, into the County Jail for thir ty days, for permitting him to escape, tironnan tikes the punishment with phi- losophionl calmness ; but it is easy to nee that it has ouly added to the old grudge ho has King entertained against Genet. It scorns too thut the reason why he did not som! Genet direct to jail after bis conviction, was becauso ho did not wish thmPrince to think him lacking in mng- nauimity. Well, the thirty days will soon pans, and tho lino of $2.10 is a bagatelle to Brounan. A brief sojourn injlio Ludlow Street .tail in not nt ail irksome to a fel low who.Ins plenty of money. The cuis- fait, tho wiuos and liquors tip top, and tho wealthy prisoner is permitted to receive as many visitors as desire to call upon him. Then ugain a handsome ilouceur will open the gates after dark and permit ono to spend tho night tranquilly iu the bosom of his family, and as a re turn before daybreak will keep tho poorer & devils iu tho dark, why the thiDg is all right. KL’-KLUX IN TUB SUBUR1J8. For aouie time past the suburban towns of this metropolis have boon tho prey of i organized band of robbers. Disguised i and wearing masks, they have entered privato residences, soized and gaggod the iumatoa, and then quietly walked oft’ with all tho valuables they could lay tboir hands upon. Large rewards havo been offered by the victims for their arrest and conviction, and on duy beforo yesterday tho detectiv&s nabbed threo notorious characters, who ure now iu durance vile awaiting trial. The ovidenco against them is purely circumstantial, but they are quite likely to bo convicted—the feol- i Wostcboslor county being that if they nre n it tho guilty parties they ought to have been, and anyhow it is best to send them to tho Slate Prison. You can not imagine how many scamps have been sent to p.tsou jus*, booauso of this feel ing. I remember a fellow who had served throe years in tho State’s Prison for burg- v\ A few weeks after his discharge ho i arrested for broakiug iuto a bank and ■arryiog off’ something like $200,000. Ho ried and acquitted, and immediately flor reurrested, charged with another larglary. Public sentiment was stroug gainst him und he was couvect- :d. Poor fellow! it noarly broke is heart. “It’s d d bard,” ho said, vith emotion, while cti route for Sing ’iug, “after gotting cleared *of robbing ho bank, which I did rob, to got sent up burglary that I didn’t know nny- nboDt." IIo is now out, and, I think, leading a calm and virtuous life on tho proceeds of tho bank robbery. A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE, little romance, typical of woman’s ovo and forgiveness, is going tho rounds. Eighteen years ago, Mr. F , thou a ng bank clerk of thirty, picked a treet acquaintance with a very pretty vork girl, aud, as too ofteu happens iu ■tick cases, effec ted her ruin. In vain die besought him to keep his promise, »ad marry her. IIo refused ; but, rather ban submit to a public scandal by a Reach of promise suit, Miceeedod iu rais- 11 g tive thonsaud dollars and paying her id images for ho: lost honor. A few vcttkH later ho lost sight of tho girl, and ;oou forgot her. Going into business on 'is own account ns a broker, ho amassed competency, and had fair suiling until ho reconi panic, when tho decline in locks bWupt away his fortune. Thur- ugbly honest, ho paid every dollar of his lebts, and was sonkiug a situation ns a •ook-keeper, when, one evening, ho re vived a note tilling him to call ut a cer- ain baok and ha would receive some •apoitant information concerning him. oinq as directed, ho found $100,000 do- >obiteU to his credit, and an anonymous etter informing him that the money was i from one who folt a deep iuturesl Q his welfare. F was thunder- truok. IIo ndverlist d for his patron, but iccivod no reply. F.nally he employed private detoctive, who roportod a couple \ after, that there was no clno to ork upon. Meantime F had been leeulatirg with more than usual bold* jiprhaps boennsu tho money came > freely—but with marked success. Fov- r *l lucky enterprises loft him worth >,000 above all debts, and ho deter- •ned to return tho $ I On,000 so mysteri- sly advanced. '1 h* lettor lendiog him >noy had staled that, when it wus to returned, it should bo deported in the ins bank to a -ertaiu name, aud that he thing should writo tho party, addressiug tho letter to Philadelphia. This ho did, and at the same time ho sought the bank offi- cors, acquainted them with the mysteiy, and asked llieir assistance to discover his bonefactor. A fortnight ago ho loarned that the owuer of the money was a wealthy widow rosiding iu Baltimore. Thither he went nt once, and, to make my story short, found in her the one whoso young love be had botrayod. She had married and been widowed. What was more interesting, F found in hor only child, a beautiful girl of eighteen, his own illegitimate daughter. F had nover married, lie was touched by tho magnanimity of Mrs. . She still cherished her girl’s love for him. Sequel.—On Monday evening lost they wero quietly married. IIow she learned of his embarrassment tho story does not tell. MR. PROCTOR’S LECTURES. Mr. Bichard A. Proctor, tho English Astronomer, last night, delivered the first of u series of lectures on astronomy. IIo was greeted by an intellectual audience that crowded every inch of Association Hall, aud his lecture wus a real scientific treat. His published works are very pop ular, “Other Worlds than Ours,”especial ly, having obtained n grout circulation. It has been remarked as singular that a man of Mr. Proctor’s profession should bo a convert to liomnn Catholicism, und yet such is the fact. It is also a notable refutation of tho oft repoated assertion that tho Catholic Church is opposod to scientific research, or to scientific specula tion. Proctor, for example, iu bis “Oth er Worlds than Ours," argues strongly in favor of the probability of tho habitabili ty by such beiugs ns exist ou the earth, of tho plauol Mars, mid tho tenor of his roaourches is to show that the planets nro all inhabited, and that Nature did not put thorn iu space to idly revolvo. Ilis lec tures will bo vastly ontortaining and in structive and cannot fuil to meet with de cided pecuniary success. A SINGULAR CONTESTED CASE. Tho last social scaudul beforo tho courts is tho contest of the will of ono Mr. Boll- wagon, a Gorman, who died not long ago, worth some $(100,000. Ho had been threo timos married, his last wife being his for mer housekeopor, a woman uumod “Le na," to whom he had beon united about two years prior to his death, llollwugeu was Htriokon with paralysis in 18fil), aud at tho time of his lust marriage was plololy paralyzed, and so near absolute spcechlessnesH that nobody but tho wo man “Lena” ever protended to uuder- stmd what ho inumblod iu whispers. On Tho day of his denth “Lena” was sick, and at the snmo time pregnant. At first she refused to have his will read, but llually it was opened, when, to tho sur prise of his sous by his former wives, nearly the whole of his largo fortuno was left to “Lena," and the remainder willed to them, lied up by singular provisions. The sons are now contesting tho will. They ulso claim that the infant, a girl, to which “Lena” has given birth, is not their father's child ; that at tho timo of her murriage to him tho old tuau was ut terly incapable of having cliildceu (ho was sixty-seven years of nge;. Tho testi mony is remarkable. Mr. llollwagen's will was made in his presence, at tho dic tation of “Lena.’’ She put her ear to his mouth; ho mumbled, and sho then dic tated. Aftor it was written tho lawyer asked him if that was his will. Uollwn- geu bowed assent, signed it, and soon af ter died. Immensely rich as lie was, his choice frionds and companions wero night scavengers, barbers, and tho like. WEALTHY NOBODIEH IN NEW Y. UK. It would, imiood, surprise a stranger to know of the many wealthy men iu this city who nro at tho bottom of tho sociul scale. Among the most noted is the hoop er of a coffee and cake saloon opposite the Oily Hall park. His name isOlivor Hitch cock—a robust, athletic man, with heavy, dyed moustaches and quite a kindly, go nial luce. His saloon is noted for tho ex cellence of its coffee and buttorod cukes, and does a largo business. It has fre quently struck mo as comical to sec Hitch cock sol ving out pork aud beaus at ton cents per plain, with a live thousand dol lar diamond pin iu )i;h shirt bosom. He is reported to be worth more than two hundred thousand dollars. I know a news paper carrier who owns ono hundred and fit'iy thousand dollars in real estate. In 1870 I rented a Frouch plat—part of an elegant Brown stone frout, high stoop house in one of tho finest streets iu the city. Imagine my surprise when I learn ed that the owner was nu old German wo man whose sons wero working at pot mending, and tbnt this houso was only ono of some six or eight owuod by her. Ouly yesterday, » brawny old caTpontor called ut my houso to make some repairs. Tho folding doors of tho parlor hud be come stiff and would not slido easily. Pulling his coat off, ho went to work for, as bo told me, $25..10 per day. A briof conversation developed tho fact that ho was the owner of several houses and lots, and that he was worth, perhaps, $7.1,000. There ore many others iu this city who are wealthy, but w ho are utterly unknown to “good society.” Doubtless tbeso peo ple live happily, but v. hat a fate is their childrens? With abundance of wealth, and without that experience necessary to employ it wisely iu a higher sphere of life, threo-fourllis of them fall into the hands of sharpers and in a few years have kquiudcred the thousands which their tattlers toiled and hturvod to accumulate. Ahtca. —Iicv. Samuel Fisher, of Collego Hill, Cinoiuuati, fell dead. He succeeded Dr. Beecher as pastor of the Socoud Presby- tfeiian Chfuvn, and was for several years President of Haniplou College, iu Now York. WASHINGTON. Congress Declares Agnln«t Currency Expansion by 13.1 to 08—Morrl* son A. Waite, of Ohio, Nom inated lor 4'liicr .lustice. House. • Washington, January 19.—Bills wero ntroduced for purchasing tho Monticello homestead of Thomas Jefferson, and granting all tho public lauds iu Alabama for soliool purposes. Wilson, of Indiana, moved to suspend the rules and adopt tho following resolu tion : Whereas, by reason of tho prosont monetary stringency mid tho insufficiency of tho amount of circulating medium, tho industrial aud commercial affairs of the untry have boon greatly doproRsed ; and whoreas, by roason of such stringency, tho revenues of tho Government havo boon hugely diminished, iu consequence whereof Congress has beeu asked to in crease tho tax to the amount of $42,000,- 000 ; and whereas, until the roccut panic tho rovemios wero ample to meet the cur rent expenses of llio Government; there fore, Kesolvod, That, instead of levying addi tional tax, tho true policy lies in tho en actment of such a lav, or laws, as will relievo such Rtriugency and supply tho means necessary to the business wants of tfco country, by incrousiug tho circula ting medium, thereby reviving business, increasing tho revenue, and thus avoidiug tho necessity of increasing the present rales of tax, or duty, or the imposition of additional tax or duty. lie solved, That the Committee on Banking and Currency bo instructed to prepare, and report to tho House without delay, a bill for tho pnrposo iu tho first resolution expressed, and that said com mittee havo leave to report at any time. McCrary, of Iowa, called for tho yeas and nays. Spears, of Fean., iuquired whethor tho question of consideration could bo raisod. The Speaker said that that question, ns raised iu tho motion, was to suspend thut rule and all other rules. Daws, of Massachusetts, remarked that tho subject was beforo tho committors at present, and had been discussed and lost Saturday. Ho suggested that instead of having a vote now, tho resolution be simply introduced, and left for deliato at some other time, so that tho various views of members might be brought out, and that tho Committeo on Wuys and Means, mid tho Coinmiltoo on Banking and Currency might havo tho bondlt of their views. Tho Committee on Wavs and Means proposed to report .something to-morrow, which would bo the subject of debate, confined to this matter. Holman, of Maryland, objected to tho discussion. Jiuudull, of Pennsylvania, remarked that the Committeo on Banking and Cur rency was holding sessions every day and evening during tho sitting of tho Houso, listening to tho views of gontlomon from various parts of tho country. Wilson said this question of increased currency was exciting a great deal of pub lic attention : therefore, ho had drawn those resolutions for tho express purpose of testing tho sense of the House, and lotting tho country know whethor or not there was to In* an increase of tho cur rency. Cox, of Ohio, wanted to offer an amendment, but th.» Speaker informed him bo could not do so under a motion to suspend the rules. Tho vote was taken, and rosultcd Yeas l.”’, nays 98. So, two-thirds uo voting in tho offirmnlivo, tho resolutions wero rejected. The negative votes wero Albert, Archer, Banning, Buss, Bock, Buffington, Bun-hard, Burleigh, (.’aidwell, Clarko of Ky., Clayton, Clime, Cox, Crocker, Crooko, and many others, among whom appear the names of no Southern- Tlie Third Choice* lor Chid' Justice — Morrison A. Wuitc. Tho nomination of Morrison A. Waite, of Ohio, to bo Chief Justice of tho Su preme Court, was a surprise to Senators aud all others about tho Capitol, including tho Justices of the Court, but it did not occasion tho same degree of wonder as whon Caleb Cushiug's naino was trans mitted for tho samo office. Subsequently, tho Sonate, in executive sobkIou, referred tho nomination to tho Committeo on tho Judiciary, who will probably, to-morrow, report favorably upon it. Many enquiries woro undo ns to tho standing of this gentleman, not having a National roputation, but being bettor known in tho State of which ho is a citi- zen, tho nomination recalled the fact that ho acted ns ono of their couusol nt tho Gonovn tribunnl of arbitration, and some of tho Senators woro acquainted with him an able lawyer of thirty years standiug Ohio. Although a Republican, ho is not an active partisan, and at tho present time President of tho Ohio Constitutional Convention. was discovered on looking over tho Supremo Court record, that a year ago to morrow, Mr. Waito was, ou motion of Calob Cushing, admitted to tho bar of that Court ns an attorney. Contrary to report Mr. Wailo never held a Judgeship in Ohio. Senators of both parties speak well of tho nomination, and there seems to bo no doubt of the confirmation. NEW If'oifK.
