GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.

WooDwoRTH, THE PoET AND THE
PRINTER.--The New York correspond
ent Of the National In:eIigencer, in allu,
ding to the decease of this popular poet,
says:
Woodwork was one of the numerous
family of Franklin, for he was a printer,
and his genius expanded over the compos-
TORS case; and this is THE early history
CT two-thirds of the eminent men in this
country; editors politicians, authors and
poets. 1t would be curious to inquire, in
deed, how far the destnies OF this great re.
public are now influenced and welded
by master-spirils who have been print
er's devils in their time. Woodwork
followed his trade till he was considera-
bly, advanced; and though he suffered
much from poverty, he has gone to his
grave without blot on his name, an ex-
emplary man n,alI the relations Of life"

The Lost Trunk Found.

And $4,000 of the money recovered.
The mystery was solved yesterday. at
least in part. The trunk was found, with
the greater part of its contents, and man
was arrested as a thief; whether he had
accomplices or not, remains to be found
out.
The discovery was made in this wise
among number OF bank notes sent by
The Bank of New York to the Merchants
Bank, which had been taken on deposite
by the former in the course of the morn.
ing, was one for $500, which was imme.
diately recognized by the Merchants
Bank as having been in one of the ex.
press packages. Inquiry was of course
set afoot, the note was traced to an i'm
porting merchant in Cedar street, and
from him 10 a German named Lacknor,
from whom he had received it in pay
ment. Lacknor was arrested and search
made at his residence, where the identi-
cal trunk was found, with the valuable
papers and some $4,000 in bank notes.
Lacknor, it appears, came from Ger
many last summer, and had established
himself as a merchant al Milwaukee,
whence he came few weeks ago TO buy
goods. He married a countrywoman OF
his own, the week before last. -Four
hundred and fifty dollars were found in
his possession when arrested and he had
bought for his wife a gold watch and
some jewelry. The wife was arrested,
when the trunk was found, but subse-
quently allowed TO go home, of course
remaining under surveillance.
The note which led to the discovery is
said to be the only one, of the whole
number, description of which was taken
at Troy, before it was enclosed in the
package, and this description had been
made known to all the banks by Drew,
Robinson & Co., 10 whom the mole was
sent.
We learn from the Mayors marshal
that on examination this morning, all the
drafts but one were found in the trunk,
and most of the letters; but none OF the
unsigned bills
The parties engaged in the investiga-
ton are of opinion that the qohole mystery
is solved, and that there remains nothing
10 discover-N Y. Com. Advertiser.
Lacknor has since committed suicide
by hanging himself in the prison with
handkerchief.

There is probably no country in which

and such as every one, of Whatever parent

all; rewards and honors find their subjects
among these of every sphere and occupa-
tion-while wealth and Influence flow in
alike, to the husbandman, the mechanic,

the meritorious of each, no invidious dis
tinctions, of republican ground, can exist,
except such as may arise from different
degrees of ability and intelligence, ard
