A Man Robbed OF $500 by tho string
Game

man called yesterday at the Central
Police Station, and stated that he had been
robbed OF 5000 by gentleman" on the
steamer Philadelphia. lie said bis name
was VIM. Il. Russell, and that he was taking
a promenade on the deck of the above
named steamer, when he was accosted by
two gentlemen" who entered into con-
versaton with him, and soon drew from
him the very Important fact that he was
the owner of $500 in gold and silver coin,
which he had in Il belt around his body
One of the individuals, who said he was
pilot of the Philadelphia, expressed curl.
osity to see the belt, and stated that he had
$4,000 about him, and would like to pur-
chase such useful article as money belt.
The foolish Young man then took the belt
from his body and exhibited it to the two
gentlemen who were very much amused
with it, and thought it was beautiful in
veDton. The next thing with these two
fellows was how to get it from Russell
One of these gentlemen then pulled out
string, which had q slip knot on the end of
it, and offered to bet $50 with his comrade
that Russell could not put the belt into the
loop formed by the knot. Russell was
amused at this, and thought nothing of the
intention of the rascals. He accordingly
put portion of the belt in the loop, when
the individual holding the string pulled it,
and the belt was fastened to the string.
The fellow who had the belt then ran from
the boat. and Russell attempted to run after
him. but was stopped BY the remaining
scoundrel, who said lie wonld catch him
and bring him back very speedily Russell
stood on the deck Of the boat for some
time. but neither the money nor the man
returned. He very soon discov cred that he
had been robbed. and proceeded to the sta

From The New 1otk Law Rock


When Greeley picked up his duds
and started ostensibly for California
and Oregon, we felt certain there was
something more to be attempted than
appeared upon the face OF the affair."
The programme of the Abolitionists,
whose agent Greeley is, now begins to
developc itself Instead of going di
recty to the Pacific, he brancned of
to Pixies Peak, and has been trying
to galvanize that once or twice explo-
ded hnmbug again into life. Whether
there be gold in any paying quaint
ties at Pixies Peak we confess to be
unable to decide. As for Greeley's
recommendation, we should not put
the slightest confidence in it. Even
if honest, he is weak, credu!ous old
man, who has been fooled so often by
sharpers in Lake Superior copper
stock, lead mines, DC, that no practi-
cal business man would for moment
risk dollar upon his recommends
ton.
We apprehcnd, however, that the
great point Of Greeley's trip was to
start the project Of new State West
Of Kansas. to be composed Of portions
Of Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico and
Utah. Already preliminary meet
ing has been held, at which it was re-
solved that Convention to form a
Constitution for the new State be he'd
on the first Monday in June. The
name is to be Jefferson. and its pro-
posed boundaries are from longitude
lO2 degrees west to longitude 10
degrees west, and the 40 parallel Of
latitude to be the northern boundary !;
from latitude 43 degrees north to lati-
tude 81 degrees north, on the 10th
1egree Of west longitude as the west
ern boundary from that point follow
ing seth degree Of latitude to longi-
tudc lO2 degrees west as the southern
boundary, and the lO2d degree of lon
gitude to the first mentioned point at
the eastern boundary. Thus It is pro-
posed to cut ano hack all the surround.
ing territories in the coolest manner
possible. The point of the whole
joke, however, is to get another State
in the Union before the merit Presiden-
tial Election, for the purpose of elect
ing Black Republican President -
1t is now announced that Greedy will
probably not visit Oregon at all, and
We suppose having stimulated emigra-
ton to Pixies Peak, and laid the foun-
