THE EDw AMezG THE H.sFs-- It was not Aug.
Iefeyre, as we reported yesterday, but Henry
Reis, who was eowlGed by Joseph Prins in
zpArcy's hat store on nuesIsy. Le5evre had
FYins arrested for ''creaangi a scandaln in his
| employers store: snd finding his name on the
| pckca books, as the one who has Prins arrested,
we naturally supposed he was the sufferer. Prins
declares thafx if Refs had not bee1 his COUSIN he
world have Killed him insteadof taidng eowhidel
to him, for the outrageousy ssanGerens manner in
| which he had spoken Of his own ladF relatives.
| FA7kAs RAIERoAD AscIDEsrg-A man named
| Michael MeGuire FlanneTy was rRp over and aw
fully crushed by the Pontchartrain cars, at Milne
burg ct hal-past nine O'Clock yesterday morning.
He had been on drunken spree AL the day and
| night previous, drinking as great rate He was
in drunken frenzy when run oTer;. different per-
sons had caught hold of HIM to keep him off the
track as the cars came in, but he broke loose at
| last, and he got what he seemed to want His left
arm was crushed to a Jelly from his wrist to his
shoulder and the left side Of his face was crushed
| off. He was brought in ard left at DR.. Hayes
/ Hospital where he 6ed three hours afterwaFd, and
/ just after the amputation OF his arm. He kept
/ stand in Claiborne market, and was said to have
gone on the spree on account of difficulty with
| his wife.
i OUTRAGEOUS BREAeH OF TRUsT.-Iast Saturday,
| Mr.. Leclere, proprietor of a restaurant at Milne
burg, was deserted by his-head steward and man
aging man, Spaniard named Garcfa-brother OF
| the Garcia who was killed some time ago by Prince
| val, in fight which they had appointed on the
| Bayou ST. John Shell Road.
4 Mr.. Leclere might not have mourned the Span
iard's French departure, had not his wife, young
and pretty woman, or rather girl, to whom he had
been welded about hall year, and 800 in cash
4 disappeared at the same time, as the comfort and
Esoace of his treacherous employ.
Mr.. Leclere found that the fugitives had; taken
passage on the French ship Hayre, for Hnvre,
which cleared that day, and was to leave in the
evening. In state of high!excitement he rushed
to the levee and boarded the ship just the tow
boat was hitchiag= on to take her away, he
espied the villain Garcia in the disguise of saiior
Drawing his eane-sword aud going at him, he said,
" Give me back my wife and money, or LII have
your life.r Garcia coolly drew and cooked re-
volyer, and said, sect ashore quick ~ And Le-
clere got
4 He ran out on the levee to look for an officer
but before he found one the ship was off and on
her way down the river. In his distress and blum
thought of applying to the police in the first place,
of oftelegraphng to the Balize afterward. So the
ship, with its guilty pair is on the sea, bound to
Havre, and Garcia is bound to haye-'er also, NO
matter where the ship goes.
The next day Mr.. Leclere got legal advice, and
a as we understood,. furnished deposition Of the
facts to the French Consul for transmission to
France by steamer from New York, that Garcia
NAV be arrested on arrival and sent back to this
country, under the treaty which exists between the
two countries.
It will interest a shocked and sympathetic com.
munity to know that Garcia, in running away with
his employers pretty wife, forgot to take along
his own lawful wife and their several children.
SrABBING AFFAIR IN THE WORK HsousE-Ye ester
day noon, John Wilson, alias Williams, was danger.
ously stabbed in the Workhouse by Bill Griffin.
Both as notorious villains, Or thieves, were incar

suspicious characters" and Griffin is an old peni
tentiary bird, having served out term for arson
| and another for burglary.
In the Work-house, the prisoners are divided out
in messes, each mess having its appointed captain
and this captain dividing the food daily among tht
mess. Griffin was captain of his mess. In diyid
ing out the dinner yesterday, Griffin gave Wilson
If piece of meat which was nearly all bone Wilson
4 complained of this and Griffin giving him no salts
n faction, he started to complain to the Warden
Griffin stopped him at the door; they had an alter
: cation; and Griffin gave Wilson stab just bacl
of the right hip, with the knife he had used in cut
+ ting the meat. The City Physician being sent for
o examined Wilson's wound, and found it so deeI
T. and dangerous, the hemorrhage being internal
. that he had him removed to Charity Hospital. The
II Chief of Police Mr.. McGlelland, took Griffin ava,
10 from the Work-hoase and lodged him at the lock
up to await results.

ID girls, and for his pertnacty in sending message
of to young ladies, even in wealthy and fashonabl
ne circles, by negro wenches, whom he has in his en-
an ploy for that purpose.
