schuyler. the Ruined Banker.

A New York letter writer makes the
following comments upon the fallen ior-
tunes of the celebrated Robert Schuyler
81 passed the other day the splendid
mansion of Mr.. Schuyler, whose s,upend-
Gus frauds are so well known. Il was
closed and apparently solitary, though his
family still reside there. What contrast
few months has apparently made IN that
family. Its glory is dim. Crowds no
longer assemble in the spacious parlors;
the coachesof the splendid and gay do NOT
line tho sidewalk; the brfll;salas ma
dashing company longer allure the crowd
to herd around the curb-stone-an is sole
tude. But what lesson does this event
teach!
Mr.. Schuyler had two characters. In
business, on Change, at his rooms in the
Astor he was known as the high-minded,
honorable, successful, pure-minded man.
one of whom New York was proud, one
whom she delighted to honor. Now como
with me into one of the least pretending
streets In New York. The house is as un-
pretending as the street. Mr.. Spicer lives
here. Let us enter. Mrs Spicer and
family of children, from nineteen years
and under, compose the household. It is
said to be a singular family. Mr.. Spicer
is singular man. No one ever sees him.
The butcher, the rnill1nan, the landlord.
don't know him. Mrs. Spicer does all the
business. Mr.. Spicer comes in late; he
goes away early in the morning.
He is business man; he has so much
business that he is never seen in his fami-
ly. Remain there day and night, you will
never see Mr.. Spicer. The daughters be-
come young ladies. They are well edu-
Gated. They go into society, but no one
knows their father. Mfr. Spicer's name is
not in the business directory. So have this
family lived for twenty years in the heart
Of New York. At length the elder Spicer
is engaged to a most worthy mans II is
needful to gain the consent Of Mr.. Spicsr.
that the marriage may take place.
A time is appointed, and the expectant
son-in-law is placed face to face with Mr..
Spicer. He is told by the father himself,
that his name is not Spicer, but is Mr..
Schuyler; that the mother Of his daughter
is not wife; but if the daughter is taken
in marriage the mother shall be welded.
The double act is consummated; the veil
is removed. New York is agitated for a
moment by the disclosures; an elegant
house is taken on 22d street, and the fam
lily is launched on the wave Of fashionable
life. ALI the world knows tk. sequel
with so rotten a foundation, how could the
superstructuTe stand.

A rRINcELY EsrArE.-The matter Of
Col Fremont's land claims is now being
tested in the Supreme Court at Washing
ton. 1t involves the title of Col Fremont
to tract of land containing one hundred
square miles, in the midst of the richest
mining district Of California. The claim
of Col. Fremont comes through an alleged
colonization grant to one Alvarado from
the Mexican government. This grant was
a vague permission to locate hundred
square leagues without more definite bound
aries than a requirement In the permission
that the floating right should attach within
limits computed to embrace thousand
leagues. The California land claim COM
mission has allowed the claim, and tho
United States appeals against its decision.
What do you think of an estate en-
bracing nine hundred square miles, in this
land of Democratic honest A territory
whence thousands of miners are annually
deriving millions OF gold. What effect
the establishment Of private claim over
the golden scenes of their iabors, would
have upon these toiling and adventurous
sappers and miners" il is difficultto in-
agine. No such speculation, however.
should influence The decision Of equal and
exact justice.

AFur Trade Adventure.
BY WASHINGTON IRVING:

Golfer, with the hardihood of a regular
trader, had cast himself loose from the par
ty of Lewis and Clark, in the very heart of
the wilderness, and had remained to trap
beaver alone, on the head waters Of Mis-
souri,. Here he fell IN with another lone
ly trapper like himself, named Potts, and
they agreed to keep together. They were
in the very region Of the terrible Blackfeet
at that time thirsting to revenge the death
of their companions, and knew that they
had to expect no mercy at their hands,
They were obliged TO keep concealed all
day in the woody margins of the rivers,
setting their traps at nightfall, and taking
them up before daybreak. Itwas fear
full risk for the sake of few beaver skins,
but such is the life Of a trapper.
They We're on branch of the Missouri
called Jefferson's Fork, and had set their
traps at night, about six miles from a small
river that emptied itself into the forks
Early in the morning they ascended the
river in canoe to examine the traps. The
banks on each side were high and perpen-
dicular, and cast shade over the stream
AS they were softly padding along, they
heard the trampling of many feet upon the
banks. Golfer Immediately gave the alarm
of "Indians p and was for instant retreat.
Potts scofed at him for being frightened at
the trampling of herd of bufaloes. Col
ter checked his uneasiness, and padded
forward. They had mot gone much fur
ther when frightful whoops and yells burst
forth from each side of the river, and sew
eral hundred Indians appeared on either
bank. Signs were made to the trappers to
come on shore. They were obliged to
comply. Before they could get out of their
canoe, savage seized the rifle of Potts.
Golfer sprang on shore, wrested the weap-
on from the hands Of the Indian, and re-
stored tito his companion, who was still in
the canoe, and Immediately pushed into
the stream. There was sharp twang OF
bow, and Pots cried out that he was
wounded Golfer urged him to come on
shore and submit, as his only chance for
| life; but the other knew there was no
prospect of mercy, and determined to die
game; lereling his rife, he shot one of the
savages dead on the spot. The next mo-
ment he felt himself pierced with numerous
arrows.
The vengeance of the savages was now
4
turned upon Golfer. He was stripped na-
ked, and, having some knowledge of the
Blackfoot language, overheard consuita-
ton as to the mode of dispatching him, 50
as to derive the greatest amusement from
his death. Some were for setting him ur
as a mark and having a trial Of skill at his
expense The chief, however, was foI
nobler sport. He seized Golfer by the col
lar, and demanded If he could run fast

A LEAP roR L1FE.-Immediate after
the breaking OF. of the fire last evening IN
Harrison street, the persons below rushed
up stairs to alarm the occupants residing
in that portion of the building, but rapid
was the progress of the flames that they
had found their passage back cut off by the
devouring element. A man named Hans
Henry Getz, and his wife, who lived in the
third story, finding all hopes of escape by
the stairs cut off, and the flames rapidly
spreading around them, appeared at the
front window, and, by their frantic gesticu-
lations, attracted the intense attention and
sympathy of the persons who had collected
In the street below, who called to them to
jump out, and they would catch them. The
woman prepared to leap forth from the gid
dy height-raised her hands, and took the
fearful leap. Infalling, her clothing caught
in the tavern lamp, almost on level with
the second floor, and, hanging suspended
thus for moment, she fell, and was caught
by colored man beneath, sustaining little
or no injury. The colored man was con-
siderably hurt by the shock. The husband
followed almost Immediately after, but fell
upon his back, seriously injuring the spine.
