A MYSTERY OF CRIME.-Edward Ii. Rulof, a
physician was convicted in Tompkins county, ten
years ago, of the abduction of his wife and child.
They had disappeared, and no clue was ever found
of their disappearance. Every one believed ne had
murdered them, but he was convicted only of the
abduction He was offered pardon if he would re-
veal the mystery of his guilt but he has refused to
speak. He has awaited for the prison doors to
open and let him free, after long and unhappy
years 1t is said that large estate has fallen to
him in Europe. But just as his term expires hcis
again arrested, and is again to be tried for the
murder of his child. The conviction of his guilt
and of its atrocty has not diminished in the neigh
borhood where he AMI his victims lived. The
Sheriff of Tompkins arrested him on bench war
rant as soon as he was discharged. 1t is believed
that the crime of murder can this time be brought
home to him.

exploding several caps. He then entered his
house, and on examination came to the conclusion
the powder was wet. He pricked some dry pow
der into the tube, and placed on it a cap; partly
filed with powder also. lie then took the wiper,
which had ball screw on the end, put it into the
rifle and screwed it into the ball. After getting
things so far ready for operation, he sat the trg-
gers, cooked the rife and setting his teeth on the
wiper, pulled, while with another rod he set of
the triggers The rifle went off, and rod, ball, and
all passed through his mouth and neck and enter

Two AMERICAN GIRLS IN CAPTIVITY AMONG THE
MoHAvKs.-It will be remembered by the emf
grants by the Southern route in 1851 that Mr.. Oat-
man, wife and five or six children were found muir
dered on the Gila river, supposed to have been
done by the Yuma Indians The bodies OF all the
family were found with the exception OF the two
eldest girls, who are supposed to have been car
ried into captivity and to be still living, not with
the Yumas, as at first believed, but with the Mo
haves One of Captain Washburn's surveying par.
ty, Just in from the Plains says the girls alluded to
were still living among the Mohave Indians as re-
Gently as last summer, as stated by one OF Walk
er's men by the name of Frank, and that both OF
them are married to chiefs of that tribe letter
from Mr. Weaver would seem to corroborate the
rumors that the girls are still living 1t is almost
incredible that the commanding officer Fort fama
should object or refuse to negotiate for the eman-
cipation of two American women from worse than
negro slavery. Mr.. Oatman, the brother is deslrous
of raising party to 60 out and effect the freedom
of his sisters from Indian bondage. We sincerely
hope he may be successful. We are pleased to
learn that some generous spirits have already vol
unteered to accompany him, to accomplish 80
praiseworthy an object.
