Aroaad.-Wc published Il letter yesterday
morning from n gentleman in Mount Vernon,
Ohio, propounding certain enquiries in regard
to one Vim. c. Williams, who, it was suspected,
had wife in this city. a gentleman called
upon us Yesterday and stated that last March
dis sarne Williams left wife and four chill
drcn in this city in destitute condition. Moth
ing could DC heard of him for a long time after
wards. and the employees of the Belmont Iron
works, with commendable and Characteristic
generosity, made up purse and sent the de-
serted woman to her friends in Highland coun-
~, Ohio, where she is now in utter ignorance of
his whereabouts. 1t will be recollcctcd that
tie letter from Mount Vernon stated that Will
lialns had seduced two young girls and married
II respectable widows daughter in that town,
aud deserted her also. Williams left his first
wife two or three years since, but afterwards
returned to this city where they lived together
something over a year, up 10 the time of his
leaving for Mount Vernon.
Williams is Il man about thirty five years of
age, rather good looking and soldierly in his
carriage. Upon leaving Mt. Vernon he repre-
scented that lac was going to Pittsburgh for the
purpose of getting land warrant, or something
Of that sort He told the same story here, and
after his departure several friends of his desert
ed and destitute wife, wrote to Pittsburgh for
the purpose ofascertaining something in regard
to it The whole affair proved to be q villianous
lie We commend the rascal to the left handed
favor of the Pittsburgh press and police, He
is a machnist by trade and is doubtless employ
poycd in that city.
Prior to the last Presidential election this
man Williams, was an active politician in thi.
city, and became quite notorious in certain sur
rounding sections by his stump speeches and
l,arangucs lie is as fall of "gas" as some
newspapers we know of, and has, if possible
less regard for truth Hand him around
Fierce Cmiae Eagagomeat-IHe Landing IN
an Uproar,-We are delighted to have occasion
to chronicle fierce canine engagement which
came off on the landing yesterday, in front of
the steamer Courier 1t was n spotted dog and
cole black spaniel. They fought about twenty
minutes with terocity desperate to behold in
two dogs of such small calibre. The growing
of the fighters, the yelling of the five and
sixty spectators, the whining of some half dOZ
cn ours Of low degree, 'sloshing about watching
an opportunity to pitch in, the pitiful cries of
a small boy, the owner orthe spotted dog; the
excitement attending the act of hustling him
away from the spot, together with an immense
quantity of independent yelping and miscella-
ncOus outside bowling around the edges of the
ring, not to mention the presence Of the re-
dnubtah!c Captain Walker, who was jumping
up, claPping his hands, shrieking and roaring
like IA mad jjackass ON hot plate presented
a scene of confusion which beggars description.
Go it spaniel" put new vigor into the efforts
OF the dog addressed-"Chaw him spotty" had
similar effect on the opposing sde-now they
We're in the water, now they were out-"nOw
you saw them and now you didn't"-Checi
Lyjowlan,l neck and neck they tuggcd and shook
other, until the spaniel, to the ineXpreSsible
delight of Captain Walker, came out victorious,
when crowd and ours and all dispersed.

Tie Strike on tie Ccntrul Ohio Railroad.
We are informed by a iclegraphic dispatch from
our friend Morris at Belair, that the trains over
the Central Ohio Railroad went out as usual
yesterday morning, and no danger was appre-
hcndcd that they would be moeStcd We are
reliably informed that an arrangement will be
made TO settle with the employees some time
during the present week.
Stopping railroad trains under way, and taking
possession of engines is not the best way in the
world to get two months back pay, but in the
present case it was probably the only one.
P. S.-We learned by dispatches last evening
that the traiuswere coming on eastward with
outinteftupdon OF without theleast danger ofbe-
ing Interrupted. 4 land slide at Glencoe detained
the trains in the morning, but beyond this no
delay was caused. There is an undue excite
mcnt in regard TO this strike, and we are assur-
cd that a few days viii see it amicabiy settled.
La'sr-Thc strikers were al paid off ycster
day at GAINESVILLE, aud the usual quiet and good
order restored. Those who had interfereGl with
the passage of trains were discharged. The
Immediate cause of the strike was an article in
the Cincinnati Commaci9, stating that the
Road had passed into the hands of Receiver.
