SINGULAR VERIFICATIoN OF A DREAM
A letter from Hamburg contains the following
curious story relative to the verihcation of
dream. 1t appears that a locksmilhs appren-
tice one morning lately informed his master,
Claude Soller, that on the previous night he
dreamt that he had been assassinated on the
road to Bergedoff, little town at about two
hours distance from Hamburg. The master
laughed at the young mans creduliiy, and to
prove that he himself had little faith in dreams,
Bergedof with lao rix dollars (22l. Ss.)
which he owed to his brothe--in-law, who re-
sided in the town. The apprentice, after in
vain imporing his master TO change his inten-
ton, was compelled to set out about eleven
o'clock. On arriving at the village Of Bell
waerder, about half way between Hamburg
and Bergedof, he recollected his dream with
terror, but perceivng the baiIic Of the village
at little distance, talking TO some OF his
workmen, he accosted him, and acquainted
him with his singular dream, al the same time
requesting that as he had money about his
person, one Of his workmen might be allowed
to accompany him for protection across
small wood which laid in his way The bailie
smiled, and in obedience 10 his orders, one Of
his men set out with the young apprentice.
The next day, the corpse of the latter was
conveyed by some peasants to the balie,
along with rcaping hook which had been
found by his side, and with which the throat of
the murdered youth had been cut. The bailie
Immediately recognised the instrument as one
which he had on the previous day given to the
workman who had served as the apprentices
guide, for the purpose of pruning some will
lows. The workman was apprehended, and,
on being confronted with the body Of his VIC
tim, made a full confession Of his crime, add
ing that the recital Of the dream had alone
prompted him to commit the horrible act. Inc
assassin. who is thirty-6ve years age IS a ma
tive Of Bilwander, and previous to the perpe-
tration Of the murder, had always bore an
irreproachable character.

SWARTWOUTING.

Our readers have already been apprised of the alb
rup departure for Texas Of H. Holland, Marshal of
the District Of Lonisana, and the resignation OF Mr.
Breedloye, the Collector at New Orleans A letter IN
the Cincinnati Republican from John q. Andersou
late commander of the steamer Winchester gives
particulars of these two officials what are inte-
resting and which, he says, "may be relied on as SOS
ceptble Of proof" II appears that Mr. Holland has
absconded with all the public and private moneys he
could embezzle and il detail given Of the prosti
tuition Of the law, and abuse Of official power to ex-
tract money from the persons purposey got in his pow
by false SUITS and other resorts it would sicken the
heart think Of such human depravity II is alleged
that Mr.. Breedlove has adopted system assist in
closing his accounts with the Government through
scoundrel called George Crossey purposely retained
about his office multitude Of suits have been pro-
cured against steamboats, in which Breediove inform
and Cressey the witness; and penalties have been
exscted from boats to the amount Of from 40 TO $780,,
O0O for triAmg non compianccs with the late of
Congress, com monty called the Steamboat LAWN
all OF which cases. il will be observed one half goes to
the iniomer-he other to the Government
1t is worthy Of remark. that both the Judge and Jury
in all the cases. recommended to the Secretary Of the
Treasury (sho has assumed to see this hill OF isNo.
vigorously enorced) remit the forietures aud
fines. He plainly answered. that he had authority
10 act in me matter thus, plainly showing still
august partner in this system Of legal robbery. In
other port in the Union has this system Of common in
forming and vexs,ous prosecution been tolerated by
public sentiment.
The Louisville Journal alleges that Mr. Breedlove is
probably defaulter to the amount of 100000, and
that he acknowledges his default for part Of that
amount.

by the popular title Of boring. We rejoice that our
counsel did not faTby the side The views urged
by us IN three consecutive articles have been ably
seconded and enorced by several of our contemporaries
To the independent and patriotic prints referred TO-
are due our thanks and the thanks of the public at
large The subject is ono of unappreciaed and almost
inapprecabe importance To the abuse of boring we

within the last few years been cast upon our statute

will continueno matter what party he in power-to
multiply exclusive privileges and add to the variety Of
