Just below city, has been in state OF exciems NJ
relative TO the appearance 10 that usually quiet pisee
of the celebrated Miss Emily Jane Blount aud the
"gallsnt Zousve,' DE Riviere, who hsve fgurea 80
extensively in the NewYork papers for some two
weeks past the principal facts OF which case are no
doubt familiar to most of our readers
Il appears that the lady and the Count, whose
whereabouts have been involved in mystery for so ne
time both turned up in Gloucester the is'ter part
Of las: week. though not in company with each other

with instructions 10 keep and protect her until CERTAIN
parties would be ready 10 take her TO her parents.
The " "Zouave," by some means discovered her re-
treat. and addressed several letters to her, all OF
which were received by the farmer, bu, he prevented
her answering them, being anxious to fulfill his mis-
sion by restoring her TO her parents as directed.
Agreeably to previous arrangement, on Thursday
last she to Gloucester, where she Was TO hsve
bean ioned by friend OF her family, who was 70 tske
her on to New York. The gentleman whom ahe ex'
pected not beirg hand, the farmer IN quest ON
brought her to this city, stopping 8; MOTEL IL tue
neghboIhood of he ferry, TO await the arrival Of the
gentleman who was to accompany her Oh 10 New
York.
Ire yourg lazy being extremely anxious to reJoln
her parents ard the gentleman not arriving, the
fNIner ard Mas b. proceeded to the Remington depot
tie SHINE evening. There they were joined by the
gentleman who was to escort her who upon learn %
that she was about 10 return 10 New-fOrk has,ened
to attend her. He too, then left fer that city and the
young lady, arriving there, was taken 70 the resi-
dence Of DIR. DE Wees, No. j9l Broadway, where sac

The gentleman who accompanied her IS resident OF
Gloucester City, OF the highest respscsbiiy, an &C.
qusntsnee of the Blount family, and his connection
with the affair simply from the desire to restore
the young lady to her distressed parents.
While this going on, the gallant Zousve, or
fSreign,oeking gentleman resembling ErsIc5%sn
cester as having domciled himself among them. HIS
appearance did not excite much remark until Saturday
orping last, when detective police officer, from
New-York, accompanied by lawyer named Rars n,
made their appearance in Gloucester, ard Instituted
inquiries for the "gallsnt Zousve." Citizens began
TO thrk something in the wind, and every
body was the qua rae. During the morning,
the New.loik detective sitting in the post
Office chatting with the postmaster and read
quite a distiHgut looking gentleman With foreign
air, walked in and inquired II there any letters
for him, metionipg the name he went by Postmaster
said he believed rot and cast look al the New-York
detective. Detective didn't take the HINT, merely
looking up at the stranger, and commenced TO read
his paper again. Gallant Zoueve," evidently re-
cognzipg the New-iork detective, and feeling his
danger instantly yaneset, to PT's ynAnS.n:
ensued between Postmaster and detective, in the
course Of which detective realized the mor-ty ng
truth that be had been caught mapping with en-
exceedingly large sized flea in his esr. Twss really
too bsdthe l00O which he expected TO realize from
COL Blount for the capture Of the " Zousve," were

tor search warrant procured, and il less tass
half al hour afterwaId the premises xheie Zou.ve
ought to have been, were thoroughly searched, bu',
alas in vain. After this, every hole and corner
where il was supposed he could have secreted himself
were vsited scrutrized, and even yesterday the
search was kept, but all to no purpose.
The hope Of reward has stimulated the New-York
police 70 great e1ertons this slippery geh
ileusr; but as Col Blount has now recovered bis
daughter it is highly probable that he viii rot trouble
hmself with following the trail Of this miserable I'D
venturer, wisely concluding that the " world is wide
