1 Wolf In Sheen,S CInfkinQ


We heard yesterday of series of villanies perpe-
trated recently by wolf in sleeps clothing, of
character to bring the reverend imposter, if caught
to the penltentiary. His name is John Howard Will
son, ant he has been preaching for some time past at
Cheyot. Being endowed with soft, oily tongue
and sleek appearance he tried his killing accom-
pllshments ndiscrmnately with the unmarried bellies
of that suburban village with such success that he
engaged himself to be married to no less than eleven
some OF whom he borrowed money from, upon pre-
tence OF making the necessary arrangements toward
housekeeping. Of one young lady he obtained $50,
which he laid between the leaves of a Bible in her
parlor to be used the day previous to the wedding
but when. upon hearing OF the pranks of the sancti
monlous Lotharlo she looked in the hiding place. the
bank bills were est.
The manner which led 10 the discovery of his mul.
tifarious engagements was, that couple of the be.
trohed met by accident in fashionable dry goods es-
tablshmdnt in this city. After mutual recognition,
they proceeded to examine various fabrics and make
purchases for the approaching nuptials In the
of conversation they made mutual confessions
OF the contemplated marriages, and discovered they
were engaged to the same man. fainting exhib-
ton of course followed. The dscohsolae damsels
returned without their purchases the quiet village
where they speedily proclaimed the vilainy of the
rascaly pastor, who, getting wind that all was dis
covered, made tracks between the two days during
the past week
Since his exit 1t has been discovered that he some
time ago forged draft on MIR. Elicit of the Metho-
dist Book Concern, which was honored. No tldings
have been heard of him since his disqualification, but
we presume he will turn up under another name,
when he can discover convenient field to reap q

| correspondent of the London Times gives tn,
following account OF attack made by the allies
on the night OF the l4h ut., which he says is good
specimen of the attacks made there:
Twice during last night the whole camp was dis.
tuThed by tremendous fire from the enemy's works
All the pIcquets and outposts were kept continually
on the alert, and twice the Light and I'd Divisions
were turned out under arms The firing was caused
oy our allies making attempts to dislodge the rife
men, who hidden in front of the enemv's lines have
lately inflicted considerable mischief The first at
tempt was only made by party of loo Chasseurs,
who, after skirmlshing with the Russian marksmen
tor some time, were in the end, overpowered and
driven back by vastly superior numbers The sec
ond attempt was made by strong body of Chasseurs
supported by 200 of the covering party from the
trenches But, during this time, the enemy had re-
celVed large renforcements, and the second attack
was repused with loss 10 the French of so killed
and wounded The firing completely alarmed the
"hoe camp, and within five minutes after the second
attack had talled two French regiments, one of
Aouaves and one of the llne advanced upon the con-
tested point. Before this force the Russians though
still superior or at least equal in number instantly
gave ground, and commenced a rapid retreat upon
their batteries During this retreat they suffered
heavily from the musketry of our allies.
AS II they apprehended an immediate storm, the
W-oie OF the Russian lines opened fire. Their bat
tefIes discharged in regular voes, which rent the
air and shook the earth, if some terrible conyul
sion OF nature was taking place. The shower Of
shot and she'll literally fell like hail. and from the
state of the ground on the following morning. it is
calculated that 100 tons of ammunition were fred

shots, fired in the dark, almost completely DESTROYED

French lay close in the holes and broken ground,
from which they had driven the enemy These they

THE EMPEROR NAPoLEoN's VISIT To ENGLAND
In yesterdays Union published the preparing the

Journal is not so complasant with regard to the
event. and in lis leading article of the 31st, it says
''' Louis Napoleon's visit to London is phrase
of the day. little attended to- for its real sgnif-
canoe, any other phrase of the day. But the
ceremony is not altogether courtly one. The visit
is very much like the triumphal entry OF conqueror

just now, is good deal composed of Louis Napoleon
Lord Pamerson is much his Malesty's as her

Massachusetts, D,sxraced.

The press of the United States is almost unani-
nous in the condemnation of the grossly improper
proceedings of American Legislators, by which
disgrace has been brought upon our State ecopy
below the opening sentences OF pungent article
from the New York Courier and Enquirer of yester
day.
We could not feel that we had fulfilled the duty of
public journal should we allow the developments
of the "Nunnery Investigation" at Boston to pass
without remark and yet the subject is one which
we approach unwillingly and with shame We shrink
from acknowledging, even TO ourselves, that the Leg
slature of State, occupying the moral and intelec
tual position which Massachusetts, has so long occu
pied in this Union, could have found among its mem
bers committee which would discharge delicate
duty utterly indelicate, not to say in
decent and outrageous We are 10th to own in the
face of the world, that in body of men which the
world has the right to assume were selected on ac
count OF their peculiar fitness to represent the inelli
gence the moral worth, and the culture, of one of
the oldest, most thoroughly respectable, and most
highly cultivated communities In the country, there
were found nearly who could avail themselves
of little brief authority to insult feeble household
OF secluded women, to outrage their religious sentl-
ment, and even to rudely break down, or rather to
mainly sneak through the barriers which civilized
christianity has drawn around their sex. But the
admission must be made, reluctant as we may be to
make it; else may justly be held responsible for
sins from which we do not absolve ourselves. The
London Times has enough 10 do to look after Eng
land now, but were it not what scathing on
saught would there be on this development OF the
propretes of life they practised by Legislators
in the modern Athens of the Model Republic.
The right to appoint committee for such examin-
ations as that which occupied this committee is per-
haps, not TO be denied but it is right which exists
only on account of the possibility that measures so
nearly nquisorial in their character may be needed
to protect the State against great abuse and nsdous
danger. But this possibility is extremely remote,
and the notion that political or our social nstitu
tons endangered by the Vaccinations of the
Church OF Rome, which has been foisted on the A
merican movement is sheery clinical. No such
danger no shadow of such danger exists. While the
press is free, while the schoomaster reads closely
the heels of the pioneer while the spirit of laws
is that which animated the settlers OF Plymouth Bay
and Jamestown, there need be fear that the,
pant of hechair which toters upon the seven hills
will alta any power in this country at all danger
ous to its liberty or it's prosperity.
