A FRMALE FoReER.-The most extensive for
gerry of moder times has lately been perpetrated
be woman upon the Turkish Government
The condensed statement gathered fromipro-
ceedings instituted against Mr.. Harrison, Job
printer in New York, as found in the Tribune
are these: A Mrs. Sevasti, Moldayian, lately
arrived in Constantinople from England. AS
she was about to leave Constantinople for some
other field of operation, suspicion was so much
excited at the great size of her trunks and the
unreasonable breadth of her hoops, that exami.,
nation was instituted, resulting in the finding of
an immense amount of spurious Turkish paper
money, in what we would call bills, and known
as "caimes" in her luggage and also sewed upin
her skirts. On being arrested, she confessed to
having put in circulation $4,000 worth of the
money in Ccnstantinople. She gave the name
Of the printer who did thej Job for her in New
York, and stated that the plates were still there
On affidavit being made, the printer, Mr.. Har-
rison, was arrested, but. he was perfectly aston
ished at the charge, having no idea that the
printing he did for the woman had any criminal
design. Mr.. HIS statement is that the woman
came in July last and got him to print 100000
labels from a copy she produced Of what he
supposed was q edlabelinA characters
that shewas very particular about the paper
andhe got some made for that particular lob.
and that when completed the sheets were pack
ed in trunks and carted to. the Assor House. So
little didithe printer dream that he was printing
counterfeit money that the job was done as OPEN
" as any other work, and that from that time
proof and refuse sheets ofthe money have been
constantly lying around the Office and used as
waste paper by the boys

AESEuh6S.-OttECS 700 maze ~ G0uT8e OF EteHk
IN Wbeelingf Several leading gentlemen of
the city are now engaged inan endeayor to raise
fund for course of lectures 1t is their inten-
ton to raise as near as may be, about Eve hum
dred dollars, and with this amount and the scat
tering sums received from non.snbcsfibers at
each lecture, to procure as many good lectures
as the money will afford The prices for lectures
varies from 60to 100 dollars, Just according as
connecting arrangements with other places can
be effected For instance, when one of the dis
tinguished lecturers is on his way from the East
to the West OF vice versa, he can afford, and
most generally is willing to stop and lecture at
place along his route, for much less SUN
than he could come especially for. AS the sea
son may be said to have about commenced, it is
important the arrangements should be perfected
as speedily as possible, in order to get the full
benefit offayorable terms. We understand that
season family tickets are sold at So, and single
tickets at 81, and (probably) tickets admitting
lady and gentleman for 50. OF .courSe, it is
not necessary for US to tell the people that this
arrangement promises much good and much
amusement for them. Wehave told them that
before, time and again, and if they do not real.
ize it, why, of course, they wont subscribe
The association of last winter and winter before
last brought lecturers here at ruinous expense
to themselves, having failed to meet expenses,
in all, save one or two instances The fund
system is the only one to attempt the arrange
ment with, and those who want lectures and
can afford the five dollars, ought to do so at
once, when the committee who have the matter
in charge, wait upon them.
In this connection it may not probably bc
amiss in US to subjoin the names and residences
of some of the most prominent gentlemen be-
fore the country, in the capacity of lecturers
Beginning at Boston we have these: the Hon.
Caleb Gushing, "a number one lecturcr,) Oliver
Wendell Holmes, (Autocrat of the Breakfast
table,) E. P. whipple, Rev. n. Starr King
: Ralph Waldo Emerson lives in Concord Mass,
and Jno. G. SAKE in Burlington, Yt-both IA
nous in their separate lines of lecture. In New
York are found quite tnotely ofthe celebrated
in this line. There are the Reys. Beecher, Bel
lows and Chaplin. There are also Park Benja-
min, Horace Greeley, and the chronological
Fowlers. At Roslyn, Long Island, lives Park
Washington. D. q, Iisnt MadrSs It SIS BGT e
Bishop O'Conor; at Cincinnati, Dr. .sBhsi
chanan, W. T. Coggeshall, VIM Goddard. We
might mention great many more men dis.
tinguished as lecturers, but these are probably
enough. There are distinguished men about US
here, who could be got, and who=ougbt7to be.
sprinkled in with these others fromSabroad.
We hopeto be able to chronicle the success Of
the effort now making in behalf of a course of
lectures.

said to be of opinion that he will die next spring
just after having completed the last of the task

him, speak differently, ..and are bold enough to
predict that this time he will prove to be alto
gether in error, and very different celebration
