as many aliases as the Emperor of Russia

following circumstances A person of
whom he had borrowed considerable
sum of money about three years since, re.
cosnized him, in this city, and charged
him with it. Hines denied his name, he
al the same time using the alias of Austin.
The creditor, whose name we have not
learned, went 10 the Office of VIM. Doty,
Esq. and gel out capias for his arrest
By some means, Hines found OUT the
movement, and repaired to the steamboat
Pike, where he assumed long face, and
told the passengers that he had fallen
overheard, and lost all his money; bu,
that he had il check for large amount
that he was to draw at Louisville. Sew
eraI passengers lent him money, in all
about SlOO. which he promised to pay at
Louisville, and with which he made of
into kentucky.
His trunk was seized and conveyed to
MIR. Doty's office, where it was opened,
and found to contain some very valuable

character to Gov. Roman, of Louisiana,
