Of the persons concerned in

had been found guilty ; and two
thousand had been liberated.
Lamaftin has intimated to the
electors Of Macon, his desire to
retire from public life.
Great anxiety prevailed con-
corning the disclosure in the ev-.
idence as to the insurrection Of
June, all of which was soon to
be printed for the use of the
Assembly. Nothing, it is said,
would be,snppressed. The de-
bate on this, subject was to CON-
mence on Monday, the 2lst.-.
It was expected to cause great
excitement, but Cavaignac's ar
rangements to prevent violence
was complete.

which had been announced, cre-
ated a great number Of enemies.

Ingenious Fraud upon The Post Office De-
pdY4'nem.-The reports of the special a.
gent Of. the Post Office Department, from
time 10 time, detail some very ingenious
attempts at imposition apd fraud on tie
part of persons pretending to remit money
by mail. Sach occurrences are Gy 10
means rare, we are informed but the fol-
lowing statement exhibits, perhaps, more
ingenuity and cool calculation than are Of
Ten resorted 10. II is an extract from a
recent report of the special agent hthe
section where the case occurred:
"a man by the name of w. p. Wright,
of Cairo, Greene county, New York, was
indebted 10 Rev. Mr.. B., Of West
vile, Connecticut, in the sum of one hun
dred dollars. Wright went 10 Causkill,

and called on clergyman, an acquaint-
ance Of his, and, while there, wrote let
Ter 10 MIR. B, stating at the same ti!te
TO hissfriend, that he wished 10 remit in
the letter $l00, and requesting him 10 ac-
company HIM (Wright) to The Causkill
Bank, for the purpose OF obtaining 800
bank'note in exchange for small bills
The note was placed in the letter, wa
fer obtained of the cashier, and, accompa-
MED by his witness, Wright proceeded at
once'to the post Office, and deposited let
ter in the letter-box.. On reaching its
place of destination, the letter was opened
by the person TO whom addressed, in the
presence of the postmaster, but the mon
ey was missing. Ar the bottom Of the
letter appeared The following note, writ
ten in very coarse; unnatural hand:
"Mr. B: | take the liberty 10 borrow

may not blame the man what sent il 10

Unqaestionably bold robbery had been
committed by some postmaster or post Of
flee clerk, and each one who was favored
with an inspection of The rifed letter, ex-
pressed his opinion in turn, as 10 which
of the e'ofiicos through the letter had pass
ed, was most directly implicated. The
caseowas at once put in the hands of the
special agent of the Post Office Depart

yed at the following result:
