mans out of a small sum of money. On being taken
before Justice Quackenbusb, the prisoner was com
PEELED to disgorge bis gotten gains snd was there
upon discharged, the evidence being deemed suf-
cient to convict him. Mr.. Ranney subsequently sent
elaborate puff of himself and his business which
he desgnates legitimate and lucrative and requested
US TO publish the same, which declined TO do On
Tuesday morning, Mr.. Rsnney was again arrested on
a warrant, by Detectives Tieman and Devoe Issued

by Mr. YebliBg follows In response 10 Mr..
RanDeys advertisement for clerks, the complainant
called upon the prisoner, and was engaged by him
to make collections and TO attend TO the Office. As
surety for the faithful discharge of his duties Mr. RAN
ney required deposit of $lO0, which was given by
Yelling. After having obtained the money, Ranney
insisted that Yelling should travel through the State of
Pennsylvania at his expense and sell trashy books
by subscription. Mr. Rsnney declined to furnish even
samples the books which be desired his agent 10 SELL
but wanted him take bis pay by commission on sales
Whenever the agent had succeeded in finding Gus
toner verdant enough to buy book in such bliudfoa
manner, he WA to send order to the gift-book

he would forward the volume desired. Mr.. YehI.

until the note due, and then presented the same
for payment ThereupoA the liberal man of books

he never intended to redeem his paper. Yelling then
procured Mr. Rsnneys arrest for obtaining money un-
der false pretenses. The prisoner was taken to Head

and made complaint of having been swindled BY him
out OF various sums in similar manner. Augustus
