The BREACH OF TRusr CAsE.-The party
implicated in the breach of trust case, mem
toned in Friday evenings paper is, Mr.. Sam
uel Lawrence, Treasurer of the Bay State
Mills. One version of the affair is that Mr..
Lawrence has issued notes of the corporations
for which his firm were agents, to a large
amount, without the knowledge Of the d.
rectors, with which he has purchased the
stock Of the corporation at the present depre-
citation, forthe purpose of private speculation.
Such transaction would admit Of explana-
ton without the tsupposition Of a breach Of
trust. Some of the rumors implicate in the
matter the firm with which Mr.. Lawrence is
connected-o Others only Mr.. Lawrence.
1t is stated that Mr.. Lawrence has resigned
the office of Treasurer Of the Bay State Com
pany, and Hon. George II. Kuhn has been
appointed in his place. The affairs of the
company are in process Of investigation, with
view to learn the value Of the property. A
report will doubtless be made to the share
holders at an early day. We shall await an
authorized statement with the confident be-
lief that it win appear that Mr.. Lawrence has
not exceeded his authority, and that he has
acted for what he considered to be the best
interests Of the corporation.-B Boston journal

A LOSING OPERATION BY A BURGLAR
About week since, burglar entered the
residence Of Mr.. George 1eel, in North Cam
Fridge, by means of window, and in order
to work as noiselessly, aud with as much ease
as possible, the rogue Invested himself of his
boots, coat, and hat, leaving them Just outside
the house. He passed through several rooms,
and WINS entering the chamber occupied by
Mr. and Mrs. Teel, when the creaking of the
door awoke Mrs. r., who instantly aroused
her husband. Mr.. Teel immediately sprang
out of bed at the same time enqulring for
this gun, which, his wife informed him. was
in corner Of the room. The burglar, who
had setired to the entry, bearing this unpleas-
ant information, beat hastv retreat down
the stairs at the imminent peril of his neck,
and making the best of his way through the
window and across lots, was soon lost to sight
and hearing. Upon going outside the house,
Mr. Teel discovered the boots, coat, and hat,
lying upon the ground, and, upon examining
the coat, found in the pockets five and quar-
ter pounds of melted silver asd several hand
kerchiefs. The handkerchiefs were marked
with the name of gentleman residing in
Somerville, whose house had been robbed a
night or two before, and, on the following
day, it was ascertained that the coat, hat, and
boots, were also stolen from that town. The
silver is worth nearly one hundred dollars,
and, as no person has appeared to claim it,
Mr.. Teel considers that he is gamer by the
operation Boston Herald.

PAYING FOR OTHER PEOPLES CRINo11NE.
DR.. r. N. Ferguson and his wife were divorce
ed at Louisville The Doctor agreed to pay
her $500 alimeny per annum, and did SO un-
til the lady married Mr.. George Welby. DR..
Ferguson then refused to pay the alimony, on
the ground that he was released by the subse-
quent marriage Of his divorced wife. and that
Welby ought to take care of his own wife
without drawing upon him for the $500 per
year as alimony, which was agreed to be paid
under the supposition that Mrs Ferguson
would remain single, she being member of
the Catholic church, whose laws forbade a
second marriage. Our courts, however, were
Of the opinion that the second marriage did
not release the Doctor from the payment of
the afmony, and Consequently he had to shell
out. Day before yesterday he paid to the
trustee of Mrs. Welby the April, July, and
October instruments, which had been sus-
pended by the suit. He may, therefore, make
up his mind to pay the $500 per year during
the life of Mrs. Welby. Louisville Courier.

HE UNEMPLOYED OF New YoRK,-The
New York Epening Mirror, In abiding to
the state of things among class of persons
in New York, called the unemployed poor.
says that "the police captains in several Of the
wards report that the apparent distress is not
as great as it was last winter, and it is a sin.
gular fact that what are called the poor in this
city, those depending upon their daily exer-
tons for their daily bread, have in the savings
bank more than nine millions of dollars |"
Of this mass. large number is composed Of
domestics. The same paper adds, that there
are many instances within his knowledge
when work is offered to laborers and refused,
unless the highest prices are paid, as in the
most prosperous times--and that it is impos
sibe to get work done about house or gard
en- even now, at any fair price. This is well
known to residents in the upper wards Of the
city. They cannot get common errand done
or box carried, OF the street swept or piece
OF furniture moved, under half dollar
though not ter minutes work, perhaps.
It is however stated, on the other hand.
that many voluntary sacrifices are being made
by the employed to serve their EMPLOYERS.
Men at work have, of their own accord. bro.
posed temporary reduction of their wages.
in order that the business they are engaged
in should not be interrupted. Such relations
as these are honorable to both parties and en- :
able both to vanquish their immediate diff
cnlties.

a CLERGYMAN ~ TRoUBLE.-On Tuesday
last, the Rev. E. d. Farr of Goshen, n. Y,
was on the steps of the Aston, looking at the
sights, after good breakfast. Quite a gen.
teel and brisk young man was also on those
steps, enjoying the prospect. The young
man passed the compliment of the season,
and the free and attractive air of the stranger
quite won over the affections of the rural
clergyman, and the proposal to take walk
and see the city of New York was gladly &C.
ceeed to by the divine In their rambes, by
the merest accident in the world, of course,
third party was met He had one Of the
greatest OF curiosities. being no less than the
famed patent safe. The paper was removed,
the bet was made the young man was out
of finds; the clergyman was appealed to;
good security was offered IN the shape Of
"$l2, 600 check on the Broadway Bank,
and as all the money the clergyman had was
in his trunk at the depot of the Philadelphia
train, it was proposed to go to the depot and
get the money. Now, common sense would
have suggested that the parties step into
brokers' and get cash on the said valuable
check, or that the parties should wait until
the bank was opened; but common sense was
absent from New York on that occasion, and
the victim, like an OK led to the slaughter,
went with the nice young man to the Phila-
delphia station, overhauled his baggage, took
out his money, paid to his companion the
sum Of S15S. took the "$12, 00O' check,
and found, when it was too late, that he had
lost his all. Officer Dewey, of the detective
police, thinks he knows the party, and is on
the look out to catch the rogue; and the
guests at the Astor are divided between SYM
patty for the divine who is now penniless,
and mirth at his greenness. Men who have
not their eye teeth cut had better keep away
from Gotham.-N. Y Cor. Boston Journal

AN Own. PARTICULAR OLD GENTLEMAN.
The majority Of people nowadays are con-
tent to obtain payment from their debtors in
the current money of the State. An old man
of Roxbury, however, seems to be of an on.
poste opinion, for, having note of $3 900
against the city Of Boston, which fell due the
other day, he refused to receive anything but
( the specie. Good bank bills were offered, but
he would not take them, and ordered a pro.
test upon the note. Yesterday the same old
gentleman made his second appearance at the
City Treasury. Mr.. Tracy, the Treasurer,
had provided himself for his temperance.
with a bag Of gold containing three thousand
dollars, principally in dollars. The creditor
Of the city, however. Was not prepared to re.
ceive the money without counting and there.
fore turned out the contents OF the bag, and
commenced his somewhat arduous task. AS
he proceeded, he grew warm, and gradually
Invested himself OF his outer coverings, such
as his muller, great coat, &C., but before he
had finished the job gave it up in despair,
leaving behind both gold and note to the safe
keeping Of the city officials Boston Travel.
