MADAME REsTELL IN PRIsoN.-It appears
there is marked difference between the treat
ment, in the New York Penitentiary, Of this
infamous convict and other persons. Desert

Her delicate hands, although stained with
the blood of numberless innoc,nts, were COW

Jewels still glistened on her fingers; although
she wore convict's frock, yet silk apron paril-

might peradveplure be too severe for her neck.
a handsome barge cape was thrown over her
shoulders. Nor is this all; Notwithstanding
the statute expressly directs that prisoners un-
der sentence should be fed upon inferior. but
Wholesome food, Madame Restell has the at
tendance OF back and white servant, who

GEN. CAss's LAND SPEcuLArIoNs.-In 1886
Gov. Poindexter wrote III our paper series OF
most powerful articles under the signature of
'Veritas," in the course OF which he charged,
among other matters, that men high i'm Office
at Washington city, even men connected with
the executive Cabinet, were concerned in ex-
tensive combinations for the purposes of spec
uations in Western lands. Many of our citi-
zens well remember what strong sensation
the charge created here and how Indignantly il
was denounced by the Locofocos, including
the Locofoco organ in this city, as a base and
unfounded calumny. They fiercely repudiated
what they called the monstrous idea that mem
bers of the Presidents Cabinet were engaged.
or would under any circumstances consent 10
be engaged in land speculations, and stigmatiz-
ed the accusation as The offspring of mendacity
and malice.
Twelve years have since elapsed, and now
we have brought to light the undeniable evil
dence that Gov. Poindexter's charge was true
10 the letter, and that Lewis Cass, then Seere-
tary of wsf, was one of an association, enti-
tied the western Land Association" got up
upon capital of 1920 600. We published on
rhurslay,a copy Of one Of the certificates Of
stock bearing his name and the names of his
four associates placed in our hands by one OF
those associates. So Lewis Cass, Secretary OF
War ia 1886. was guilty of conduct which the
Locoiocos Of that day pronounced too mon
strous for belief, and yet now, with that con-
duct proved upon him he is supported as the
LUcofoco candidate for the Presidency Of the
United States. In 1886 our opponents would
fan have inundated Gov. Poindexter for ma
king what they deemed such an absurd and
atrocious charge against any member of the
Cabinet, and yet now, when the charge is es'
tablished al the guilty mem! er Of the Cabinet
is unveiled. Locofocoism supports him with
out blush for the Chief Magistracy of the ma,
ton, aud seems to think that Cabinet officers
and Presidents have perfect right 10 get uE
land speculaiions and land-monopolies &c
whatever extent they please.

A REMAKABLR INcIDENr.-A New Yorl

A REMAKABLE INCIDENTAL New York
correspondent, Of the Philadelphia Inquirer,
relates the following as having occurred in
tina, city On THURSDAY morning week:
One day last week, il appears that young
lady OF highly respectable Paren'age, anna
BILE aud accomplished in the highest degree,
and abou, eighteen years Of age, arrived in
this CITY from neighboring State, with a
view of spending few weeks with an uncle.
At an early hour in the morning alter her
arrival, she was taken with sudden fit Of
insanity, and in her delirium she jumped
from her corch, Invested herself Of her night
apparel, and in slate of complete nudity
went into the street. The chiliness OF the
morning air appeared 10 affect her for mo-
ment, but as il determined 10 accomplish
something, she commenced 10 run very hard
towards Broadway, which street, even al
that early hour, was full Of persons. All
who saw her were of course amazed, and
knew not what TO do. Away she went with
great speed, and had proceeded several
blocks when the persons who first saw her
recovered their seli-possession, and deter'nin-
ed upon securing the poor creature and Ia
king care of her. They accordingly over
took her and brought her into one Of the no.
,eIs, where she was placed into the hands OF
the females Of the establishment, and u!ti-
maiely given 10 her friends. There is no
doub, that the poor young lady labored under
a species Of insa nifty.
