DR.. BEALE, the Philadelphia dentist, was
honored by the dentists of New York with a
public reception, on Friday last week. DR..
Beale gave history of his misfortunes, in
which he acquitted his accuser of all blame,
and expressed his belief that she was honest
in her convictions of his guilt. A committee
of Philadelphia ladies who subsequently wait
ed upon the mother-in-law of the prosecutrix,
to get assistance in obtaining his release,
learned from her that the family were we'll sat-
isfed that the alleged offence had not been
committed. He thought the young lady and
her husband would long since have pronounced
him innocent, but for the fear that he would
prosecute them for damages, altho' Ged knew
he would do nothing of the kind. However,
by the aid of his friends he had regained his
liberty, and was once more surrounded by his
family. Since his release he was happy to say
that some of the first and best men in Philadel-
phia had given him strong proof of their be-
lief in his innocence, by sending to his Office
their wives and daughters unattended.

PURLoINISc A RIvER.-There is little con-
trovcrsy springing up between New York and
Pennsylvania, in relation to the Chemung riv-
er. That river rises in Northern Pennsylvania,
flows rorthward into the State of New York,
and then turning southwark, flows backward
into our State, and empties into the north
branch of the Susquehanna river Near Corn
ing, n. Y, the New-Y orkers have built dam
across the Chemung river, in order to turn its
waters into Chemung canal. That canal extends
to the Seneca Lake, and discharges its waters
there. The outlet of the Seneca Lake is into
Lake Ontario. So that the water thus taken out
of the Chemung river is never restored to it.,
so that when it returns into this State, it's VOL
ume is greatly reduced as feeder of the Sus-
quehanna river, and our public improvements
are injured. Our State government has taken
the matter in hand, and quite difficulty may
arise out of it.-Meaduilie (Pa.) Sentinel.
