Attempt to Berray GaribaldI.


The Paris correspondent of the London
Telegraph says;
Garibaldi has just escaped gteat danger.
AS your Italian correspondents may have
already informed you, the patriot leader was
within an ace of having his plans sold to
General Benedek. The traitor happening
to be German, the papers here are filled
with the details of the disgracefHl occurrence,
some of which will doubtless interest your
readers. 1t was in the course of the Baden
campaign that Miroslavski, the well. known
Polish exile, made the acquaintance of one
Herr WiesDer, who subsequently followed
him to Italy, and proposed to serve the rev.
olutionary party with his pen. A sort of
literary agency was soon established at &C.
noa, and the versatile German appointed
promoter of national and radical plans. But
the Italians Il here quote from the Cologne
Gazette are accustomed to see with their
own eyes.
Notwithstanding the recommendation of
General Miroslavski they watched his Jour
nalistie friend and a few months ago sue
ceeded in discovering his intimacy with
several BaVarian gentlemen in tha same
place. Once suspected, suspicious aequaint-
ances were one morning followed to the
railway terminus, where they intended to
start for Verona. Several resolute patriots
took their seats in the same carriage, aud,
upon the train starting, drew their revolvers
and made the culprits produce the docu-
ments they were supposed to have about
them. The anticipatiOns proved to be cor
rect. The BaVarians were the bearers of a
letter TO General Benedek, in which Wies-
ner offered to betray the secret designs of
Garibaldi for the sum of $4,000 forms. The
traitor has been arrested on another charge,
and the letter in question handed over ID
the court.

A Pru.sian Baron Arrested for Forgery

Fridays New York Times remarks:
Messrs. Stanton & Co., brokers, at, No. SO
Canal street, yesterday caused the arrest of
a young foreigner of very distingue appear
ance, styling himself Baron de Vielinghoff,
on a charge of forgery. The prisoner, it is
alleged, came to this city last December, and
pretending to be Prussian nobleman, in
duced the compliments to advance him
$l,250 upon certain drafts of the house of
Hapbro & Son, London, made payable at the
Bank of Berlin, Prussia. These drafts were
forwarded by Messrs. Stanton & Co. to the
firm Of Oppenheim & Warfchauer, bankers
at Konigsberg who pronounced the sigma
lures of Messrs. Hanbro Il Son to be forgeries,
and information of this fact was forwarded
to the New York brokers. The services of
Detectives Farley and Eustace were then in
voked in the matter and the Baron was ap-
pretended.
1t has now become known that the Baron
is nobleman, only by title and that the
appellation is self conferred. He left Ko-
nigsberg, it is said, to avoid a prosecution
for forgery, having formerly been clerk in
the employ of Messrs. 0ppenheim & Warf-
chauer, whose names he made free use of in
extensive forging operations, but who de-
tected him before any loss accrued to their
firm. His real name is G. H. Wengho efer
although since his residence in this country
he has sometimes called himself Robert Gil
bert. He was taken before Justice Welsh,
at the Tombs, by whom he was committed
for examination, and it is supposed that he
has other victims besides Messrs. Stanton Il
Co.swho will appear and prosecute. Upon
being taken into the cell, the prisoner pro-
tested against the inhumanity of the law
which compelled Baron to talte up with
quarters no better than those provided tor

is Hstih's version of Laili and Majnoun. Two
children, son and daughter, of two neighbor-

from their earliest childhood. They are al
ways fond of each others company, like
brother and sister. AS they grow up, school
friendship ripens into love. In time, differ
ences arise between their families, and they
are separated. They contrive, however, to
have occasional interviews but this is soon
discovered, and Majnoun is warned, on pain
of death, never to approach the tribe again.
This was too much for him.
Like another Edwin, he leaves his home
and wanders about the mountain solitudes,
determined TO live hermits life but in the
excess of his grief he gradually loses his
reason. His friends go in search Of him, and
try in vain to bring him back. His aged
and broken hearted father has an interview
with him, and dialogue ensues, which has
scarcely ever been surpassed in tenderness
and pathos. In the mean time Laili is forced
10 marry a neighbOringI chief, but she re-
mains true to her first love, and goes to the
desert to have an interview with Majnoun.
