RCcsycr. Of the Carpet Bag Stolen from
the City Hotel in Albany.

Since the loss by Mr. WIN. Mckee,
Of Salem, Washington Co, of his carpet
bag, which contained S9,7O4, in bank
notes, the officers of our city have been
on the qui rire to secure not only the
thieves but the reward of $1,000, offered
for the recovery of the property, and
Yesterday afternoon officers Sweet and
Walker arrested John DAILY and female
of that town named Elizabeth Hanson,
and have recovered the bag and 50, 1919
of the money. 1t appears that on Mon
day the two arrested got into hack at
ihe foo, Of Murray street, desired TO be
driven to the PIusburg office, thence to
No. 40 Old slip, and alterward back TO
Murray-st., where the woman Hanson
got into cab, ana the matter rested
Yesterday the female again hired the
same hack from the foot of Murray st. i,
and desired him to drive to the foot OF
Courtlandt and West streets to get some
baggage, and to the Battery Hotel. On
arriving there officers Sweet and Walk
er came up and detained her. Previous
TO which, however, the driver Of the
hack had seen the man pass 10 cab.
The officers left her in charge for a
short time, when shortly up came the
mar DAILY, and he was also detained,
and on searching the persons Of Daily
and the woman Hanson, a large roll OF
money was found on her person, which
she, by the hackman's account, had
taken out Of the trunks in the carriage,
and part Of their baggage.
They were taken TO the police and the
property found concealed in the clothes
of the female was counted ; it amoun,ed d
To 50 ,l99, and the notes corresponded
with the description of the wouoy siclen
from Mr.. Mckee.
They were about to depart in the
afternoon Providence boat, but were a
quarter of an hour too late, the boat had
left. They are both committed TO pris-
on, and this may truly be most fortunate
and prompt recovery of n large amour,

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE IN TIE CITY

The wounds, or incisions, had been

beauty and power Of the address. IL
was masierly and eloquent production

listened to with deep and sincere atteD-

To stand through its entire delivery oc-
cupying nearly two hours.
Several objections were considered,
and disposed Of to the entire satisfaction,
we doabt not, Of all who had the pleasure
of listening to his remarks. The address
was concluded by a direct, touching
home appeal to the brethren Of the order
to discharge with faithluness the trust
committed TO them, and the world hcco
convinced that they were Odd Fellows
only when they act and speak like hon

The Hardening Influence of Rum.

Mr.. Cough has confined his lectures
in this CITY on Temperance, 10 crowded
and intelligent audiences, who have
listened evening after evening, with un-
diminished interest, To addresses of an
hour and half in length. 1t is impossi-
Bile to give any adequate description Of
the variety and power Of his eloqueHce.
The following, sketched from his lips at.
/ the Mariners Church, ls n faint lllustra-
,ion of the striking character Of the facts
he presents and of which he seems TO
have collected an eghaastlcss store.
In one Of The quiet towns Of Massa-
chuselts lived, three years ago, young
/ lady, who had received an accomplished
education and possessed all the charms OF
modest beauty aud noble intellect. She
had become familiar with the grim Wis
age OF death. Her heart had blcd as
one and another of her relatives had
been laid in the dust, and theT seats va
Gated at the daily repast. Her pa
rents now only remained to her IN that
/ desolate home made more desolate by
the facts that incorporate habits were

eller in the nelghborhood was daily en-
licng him to drink, doubtless intending
soon to possess his beautiful cottage and
|. little farm. She went To him, and beg
/ ged him not to sell her father any more
Il Iiauor she told han he was not onlv
destroying her dear father, but bringing
ruin and disgrace on her mother and
herself. O, he said, she would soon be
/ married she need not trouble herself t.;
! and alluded to her condition when she
should be united to gentleman Of high
/ standing and excellent character. She
! replied, she never should be married =
| she could never consent to involve in
their shame one whom she loved she
would never leave her mother ; but
would work with her own hands, and
every day bring him the amount OF mon
ey he now received from her father, n
| he would sell him no more liquor. She
entreated him with tears. But, with an
Internal leer, he asked the poor girl, II
he should say TO her father, that she bad
requested him to sell him no more !
She was unwilling To wound the teel-
ngs oc the father she loved aud respect
ed, aud was trying to save from IN
