The DRAMATIC COMPANY AT THE OPERA
HOUSE NEXT SEAsoN.-The members of the
company engaged for the next season, COM
mencng Monday, September TO- as we learn
from Mr.. Samuel N. Pike, are as follows:
Miss Susan Denim, Miss Louisa Plunkett,
Mrs. Coleman Pope, Miss Anne Clarke, Miss
Clarita Rubio, Mrs. Maria 3. Curtis, Miss
Mary Radclitf, Miss Anne Radclif, James
II. Taylor, Jno. X. Mortimer, Charles Hale,
w. E. Sheridan, G. F. Jones, G. D. Chaplin,
VIM. Harris, NJ. flanagan, ]. W. Jennings,
John Radcliff, F. G. White, and G. 7. Smith,
Stage Manager.
Many of these artistes are new to the Gin
cinnat public, while others are well and fa-
vorably known. Susan Denim, the leading
woman, has been acting for years, and her
name is familiar to the play-goers of all the
leading cities. of Mr.. Taylor we know
nothing, but we have heard him honorably
mentioned.
Sheridan, Chaplin and flanagan were at
the 0pera-house last season, and deservedly
popular. Mortimer is a clever, easy and
graceful actor who, if he will, can render
himself most valuable to the manager, and
very interesting to the audience. Mrs. Pope,
engaged to do the antique female, lis well
known here, and Mrs. Curtis, we believe, al
one time entertained the habitues of Woods
then the Peoples Theater, in the Bowery
| style of drama, under the name of Miss An.
derson.
Report speaks favorably of the company
| as a whole; but we will wait until we have
| seen its members before we can censure OF
| compliment them.

vict, who had just served out term of five
years in the Virginia Penitentiary, for killing
a man in Logan, left Richmond, a few days

found that his family had moved across the
river to Warfield, Lawrence County, Va.
He followed, and, overtaking them, mur-
dered his sister in the most shocking man
ner, literally cutting her to pieces, taking out
her heart and hacking it to pieces, and then
throwing the body into Sandy River. The
body of his son, a lad of about thirteen years
old, was found in by-place, nearly eaten NJ
by the hogs. After the perpetration Of these
horrid deeds, the fiend fed TO the woods

THREE AMERICAN CITIZENS MURDERED IN
Arizona BY PEoNs.-The Arizona corre-
spondent of the st. Louis Republican writes
irom Fort Buchanan on the Goth ult.:
/ One of those shocking scenes which have
so often heretofore tarnished the fair fame of
Arizona, has been enacted, which resulted in
the murder of three valuable citizens, two
bfthem from ST. Louis. On the morning of
Monday, Esd inst. the Poems, eleven in num-
ber working at the San Pedro mine, head
quarters of the st, Louis Mining Company,
arose and surprised the whites, numbering
them, and decamping with all the movable
property. The murdered men were Fred
erick Brunckow, Mining Engineer, John O.
Moss, Chemist and Assayer, James Williams,
Machinist. W. NJ. Williams, General Super
intendent of the mine, had left for Fort
Buchanan only a few hours before for sup
plies, thus providentially escaping the terri
Bile fate of his companions. The object Of the
murderers was undoubtedly plunder, as the
Poems had been uniformly treated with kind

RAMPANT JENKIEsIsM AT SARAToGA.--ISome
toad-eating Jenkins at Saratoga, desirous of
mourning the good will of the most unprin-
cipled journalist in the country, draws this
absurdly extravagant and fulsome picture of
the wife of New York notoriety: t
The most elegant and recherche turnout
at Saratoga this season is that of Mrs. Ben
nett, the wife of the editor of the New York
Herald; pony phaeton, evidently built in
Paris. Mrs. b. drives her pair-in-hand her
self carrying jauntily her parasol, attached to
a delicate ivory whip, which is thus made to
serve, very gracefully indeed, double pur-
pose. She drives capitally, and there are
few teams there that can pass her ponies
| when she fancies to put them upon their
mettle. As seen in her carriage she looks
under thirty years Of age, which can hardly
be, as she has son some eighteen or nine
teen years old. From the remarks made
around me as she mounted her phaeton, it is
clear that she is the envy of the envious oi
her sex at Saratoga as well she may be, for
of all the ladies here assembled she creates
the greatest sensation, go where she will
The truth is she is the finest looking woman
| here.

The WAGGoNER KIDNAPPING CAsE-RE-
ARREST OF WEAVER AND STEwART.-On the
10th of August, 1862 Michael Weaver and
William Stewart were arrested and lodged
in the Station-house, upon charge of kid
mapping free negro named James Wag-
goner. After an examination before Judge
Lowe, they were committed to Jail in default
of bail to await trial before the Court of
Common Pleas They remained in jail nearly
two months, when the case was taken before
the Grand Jury; but as they failed to find a
true bill against the prisoners, they were dis
charged. r-
Since then, Waggoner has been sorely
prosecuted by the authorities of Newport.
He was declared slave and sold; declared q
free man and liberated, and in various other
ways very shamefully abused by some per-
sons, who, thinking they had an opportunity
TO speculate on his flesh and blood, determ-
ined to make the most of it. Yesterday,
however, be was released-the particulars OF
which may be found elsewhere--and he i'm
mediately caused warrant to be issued for
the arrest of Weaver and Stewart whom he
charges with kidnapping, and whose examin-
alton viii take place to-day before Judge

MYsTERfoUs DEATH OF AN Errors DAueH-
TER-SuPPossD OUTRAGE AND MURDER.-A
correspondent of the Utica IN. W Herald
writes that the village Of Mohawk has been
thrown into great excitement by the finding
of the dead body of a young girl in the canal
at that place. The circumstances, as they ap-
peared on the coroner's inquest, are thus mar
rated
Abbey Kelly Bowe, daughter Of o. A.
Bowe, deceased, and formerly editor of the
Herkimer Journal left Frankfort on the
night of the 10th instant, for Herkimer, on
the cars. Arriving at that place about half
past nine, she there took the omnibus for
Mohawk; arriving there she got out at the
tavern to go to her boarding-house, which
was the last seen of her alive. u ..
At about halfpast eleven o'clock her
screams were heard by neighbors living not
far distant from the spot where her body was
found. She was also heard by some boat
men who saw her struggling in the water,
and went to her assistance, but too late 10
save her. A boat was obtained and her body
recovered in about two hours after her
screams were heard. Il is stated that the
boatmen saw two men leaving the spot in
their shirt sleeves soon after her screams
were heard rlrH

THp RECENT RMBhzzLnMRNr CAsD.--It ap-

The RECENT EMBEzzLEMENT CAsE.-It ap-
pears that McDougal has determined to test
the legal authority of the Bank Of Upper
Canada to pay money he had deposited in il
into the hands of persons who represented
themselves as having been defrauded by the
depositor. The Toronto CoLonist has the fol-
lowing in regard to the matter:
AFTER the Magistrate decided that the
money found in the trunks Of the accused
parties should be delivered over to the de-
tectives from whom IL was received, applica-
ton was made to the Bank of Upper Canada,
where it had been deposited, for its with
drawal. The counsel for the defense, Mr..
McLennan, sent in protest against the pay
ment of the money to any person except the
owners of the trunks. 1t was, however,
finally paid TO Mr., Robinson, D. @. of Police,
who handed 1t over TO Detectives Bleaks and
McGlogan. They gave it to the merchants
who it was alleged had been defrauded. The
two detectives received as their reward $400
each. OF the $4,000 sold to have been car
ried off by the fugitives, there is still sum
of nearly $40, 900 not recovered, vrfs t
HWe understand that Mr.. McLennan has
been instructed TO take immediate proceed
ings against the BaBk, for giving mp the
money to any but the alleged rightful owners
