Arrest of a United States Criminal in
Paris a

By the last foreign papers and letters
we have an account of the arrest by the
police of Paris of a man named Ainsley
who some time since perpetrated a for
gerry for some Sl4, 900 on a New Orleans
bank and fed to Europe with the plum
der, where he spent it in prohigacy and
extravaganza. He entered Paris under
the alias of Dupont, but was soon pick
ed up by the police, who had a minute
description of his person. The account
says he is now on his way in a packet
ship to justice in this country.
Ainsley had elegantly furnished APP
artments.in the fashionable Rue de Cho-
~iseuil, where he was enneenage with a
French girl named Louise Dupont
When the Commissary of Police enter
ed the apartment Ainsley was reading
in slippers and robe-de chambre, while
his mistress was engaged in needle work.
The Comissary demanded of Ainsley
his name, "They call me Dupont"
was the reply. And your name,
Mademoiselle ?' Louise Dupont"
Looking Ainsley sharpely in the face,
the Commissary said p" 1t may be the
custom in your country when a man mar
ries tt take the name of his wife, but in
France it is the reverse. [ have evil
dence that you are living under a false
name. Your real name is Ainsley you
are. an American; and l arrest you for
forgery on a bank in New Orleans."-
Ainsley made 40 sign of surprise, but
the girl, more impossible, almost sprang
from her chair and uttered a cry of sur
prise. The prisoner at first denied his
identity, but when brought before the
Judge of Instruction at the Palris dc
Justice, he avowed -all.-Egchonge.

Startling Exposure of Mormonism-
Letter from one of President Young's

CHICAGO, JAN. 16 1855.
EDITOR Boston DAILY TINES Allow
me to trouble you with these few lines,
which / wish you to insert in your Ddi-
" Times. My object is this l have
been for the last ten years a firm beliey-
er in the doctrine of the Latter Day
Saints, or rather, Mormonism. Ny
parents became followers of the celebra-
ted Joe Smith in an early day, and en-
igrated to Nauvoo. After the death of
Smith and his brother we were driven
from thence. The society split. There
were two who wished to take their lead
er's place, and stand at the head of the
Church. hut could not agree, There
fore they separated. Col. White and
his followers, that is, such as be-
lieytd in him, went to Texas, and are
living In peace and prosperity. Col.
w. is a worthy man compared with our
great, or rather notorious, Bingham
Young, Notwithstanding he has been for
the last three years my lawful husband,
that is, according to their own law and
rules. BIT for the last twelve months l
have seen enough to satisfy me, for what
1 don't know about Mormonism is not
worth knowing. They have secret plots
and objects that they mean to accom-
plish. They censure the Government
for not protecting them in all their he'll
-lish works. For all this they mean to
have satisfaction. My object in writing
this is to warn my female friends to be-
ware of the false prophets who are daily
sent out from the Great Salt Lake City
to deceive the people. 1t is my inten-
tion to travel through the United States
and visit all the principle cities, aud lee
turc on this great and important sub
ject, to caution all young people who
should be SO unfortunate as to be led IN
to the ungodly trap. Beware
In Boston I shall deliver my first lee
ture, as that is my native city. [ have
one young lady in company who also
left the Mormans with me. She has re-
nounced the doctrine, and will help me
in my lectures. We shall both be pres
ent, and show Mormonism in its true
%colers, which you never have had in your
enlightened State. Had it been repre-
sented in its true light, and its object
told, there would not have been q fol-
lower left sweet New England to join
such a set of impostors, for I ear call
them nothing else, knowing them to be
such. Ifthere should be any elders or
followers of Mormonism, 1 hope they
will come to the lectures, and dispute
what we have to say if they can. We
have and shall fetch documents to prove
our assertions.
We shall be there ia a few weeks
We are at present staying with friends,
and as soon as We are refreshed from
the journey we shall start for Boston.
It is near two months since we left the
Salt Lake City. You shall hear from
me again, with more particulars. But
more at present from your humble
