The foreign papers detail the following case
OF recent occurrence in Berlin, Prussia;
Zone Of the Jewish merchants there, L.
Meyer, was accused Of bribing the clerk of the
telegraph for the purpose of obtaining q knowl-
edge OF the contents of the most important
commercial Geographic messages before the
persons to whom they were addressed Two
brothers named Richenheim, one of whom is a
clerk OF Meyer, were accused of being the
persons by whom the alleged fraudulent com
munications were carried on. Their business
was always to be at or near the telegraph sta
ton, to convey to their employer the intelligence
which was communicated to them by the clerks
at the telegraphic office, in the pay of Meyer.
Meyer himself is said to have made great sums
OF money by this infamous traffic. Thus an
order was sent to Herr Blechroder, the agent
of Rothschids' house, to buy up 100, 900 thalers
of shares in the Cologne Railway.
The message war known to l.. Meyer half an
hour if not an hour before it was known to the
agent of Rothschild. The consequence was
that Meyer bought up as much of this paper as
he coald, drove up the price, and made a large
profit by the transaction This is only one Of
many eases. The trial came to conclusion
on Monday, the 18th ult. Janck, the clerk
was condemned to three years imprisonment
with loss of social rights as a citizen for five
years, for having ransgressed his official duties
Julius Richenheim, for having bribed an
official, to two years Imprisonment, with loss
OF social rights for two years; and Isidor
Richenbeim to half the term; Meyer, the
banker, for being an accompice in said act Of
bribery, to two and half years imprisonment
and three years degradation. An attempt is
made to prevent similar frauds in future. This
is not quite SO easy as may be supposed the
salaries Of some of the clerks in the telegraph
office being less than el0O year, while the
profits of single fraud may amount to many
thousands, of which, of course, they get con
| siderable share.

A Knusas Courf-hause.

A Kansas letter thus describes the place
where the United States District Court for
Kansas is held
The building is evidently intended for a
private residence. 1t is frame building of
two apartments, some sixteen by eighteen feet
each In one of these is the court enclosed.

heat is required. As much of the building
has been made from green cottonwood, the

woody odor, that is more peculiar than agreea-
bic. A couple of plasterers' mules" are
placed close to the wall, and these, with log
laid on couple of blocks and ladder turned
on one edge, constitute the accommodations
for the jurors and audience. A coarse table,
with drawer in it, stands at one end of the
same Under it lie apair of saddle bags,
carelessly thrown and tin canister, open at
one side, in which are a couple of parcels of
those mysterious papers which puzzle the in
genuity of young lawyers, try the metal of old
ones, and are as sounding brass and fink-
ling symbol" to all other sensible men, A few
common and rather coarse chairs are grouped
round that table, and on these the Functional
ries of law divine" are seated. Judge Lee
compile is the chief justice.

FIorida-Govcrnor,s Message.

Governor Broome, Of Florida, has communi-
Gated his message to the legislature. The
receipts into the treasury during the last fiscal
year amount to SOS, 1854, and the warrants issued
during the same period amount to SS5,365;
showinga deficiency of about $4,000. The
aggregate Indebtedness of the State, including
$4,000, contracted in the protection of the
frontier from India depredations, is Sl8l, 1872.
With view to the extinguishment of this debt
the establishment Of sinking fund is recon.
mended. Samuel S. Hamilton, President of
the India Emigrating Society &C the Creek Ma
ton, has made proposition to contract for the
removal of the Indians from the State, which
will be submitted to the general Assembly.
There has been a gratifying increase in the
population Of the State since the last enumera-
ton Of inhabitants was made. A new era
says the message, has been inaugurated by the
progress Of internal improvements in the State
Under the aid afforded by the Legislature last
winter several roads have been located and
surveyed and the work Of construction com
menced.
