ELOPEMENT 'WITH TWENrY TUOUSAND DOLLARS, AND
ARREST FOR BIGAMY.—A young man, nanatd It9bert J.
Larntart, was brought to the city the tight before last
(says the Detroit Press of the 30th ult.) by Bradley and
Co.'s po'ice of Chicago, and lodged in gaol on the com-
plaint of Th(alas Lark, of Chatham, C. W., who charged
him with bigamy, he hawing eloped with arid married the
step-daughter of the c'..nnlainant, while he had ano'her
wife living. It appears that the young. mln, who is aged
23. is an agent for the brush factor' of D. Barion &Co ,
Pearl-street, New Yolk, and, having occasion to stop for a
few weeks at Chatham, became acquainted with the young
lady in ques ion, whose name was Mary E. Brown. Her
attepfatber kept a hotel in Chatham, and means were found,
though the medium of companions, for carrying on a cor-
respondei ce that was foe bidden by the parents of the young
lady. The cash that she was repor:od to possess in her
own right (20,000 dollars) was a s•rong indacement to the
adventurer, and he found no difficulty in obtaining inter-
views with the young lady, and finaly persuaded her to
elope with him Lambert was arrested, and is now in
gaol. The Let of his former marriage is well ascer-
tained.

A LADY 'worn £2,500 FOTITUNE.—At the Greenwich
police court on Saturday, Mary Ann M'Sweeny, a stylishly-
dressed young Irishwoman, and T.:ea-Rasing a mo,t voluble
tongue, was charged before Mr. Becker, with defrauding a

The complainant, rn elderly man, stated that the prioner

an aL:vance in money, upon the faith ttat she had just
cime into a fortune of £2,500. This he had since ascer-
tained to he false, and hart, theref,re, given liar into
custody. The priione--0), you bad man ; you know
you wanted me to marry you, but I infused, because you
are an old man—(laughter)—and when I told you so, you
said it was 17elfr I should nut ma-ry a young man, a 3 be
would spend all my money. (Renewed latiiiver.) The
complainant—That is false ; and my housekeeper is here,
who will prove it. Toe prisocer—Why, that is the woman
to whom you said that she would have to wear a yellow
ribbon, as you were going to marry me. (Loud lau,thier.)
Mr. Secker—How long has the woman been with you ?
The comp'ainant Since-Thursday week, yoirr worshir.
She brought a large bundle of papers with her, which she
said related to her property The complainant's house-
keeper was then sworn, and stated that on the Prisoner

take from the Bank, and £5OO from a solicitor in London

wretch ; you know you were jealous oF me. (' auglyer.)
Mr. Secker—Well, what have von to say to the charge.
The prisoner—Everythin7, I say is correct I have a wit-
ness in court. Ellen Edwards, a decently dressed woman,
then entered the witness box, and deposed that the prisoner
had been first introduced to her as haling just come into
posse sion of an extensive fortune, and requiring respectable
lodgings. The prisoner then went to Mr. Oxburough's, and
during her stay there witness had accompanied the prisoner
to London, for the purpose ergo' ting. the money, and had
on one occasion lY en lre,at an hour and a half waiting on the
steps of &menet House. (Laughter.) The prisoner—
But you saw the papers by which I am entitled to the money.
The witness d nied this statement, upon which the prisoner
abused her in a violent manner. Mary Delany, a widow
woman, residing in Deptford, here informed his worship
that the prisoner had obtained 17s. from her under similar
eirenmstances. Mr. Seeker said it was evi lent the prisoner
was a person of whom inquiries should be made, and she
