Some Recollections of a Spy.

0ol4c 1SoCOAtCCIlOuS "a q ~
On Monday last, Rev. DIR. Ives, cor
respondent of the New York Herald, was
arrested at Washington and sent, priso-
ner, to Fort McHerry upon charge of being
spy.
In the wear 1s50-'52, DR.. Ives was a
Catholic Priest iu the diocese of Milwau-
kee, where he ministered spiritual coDso-
lations to large fock with considerable
success, as be was in reality, shrewd, at
tractiye and talented man. His spiritual
duties at Milwaukee,, however, required
but little of his time, and the remainder
was spent in the city, in the pursuance of
rninistrations which were spiritual as far
as the disposal of strong fluids makes up
spirituality. His religious cloak fited loos-
" upon his worldly shoulders and when
absent from his diocese, was cast off aud
he was a man of the world. He usually
stopped at the fremont House where he
was boon companion with fast commits
sion men, and hail fellows well met with
ungodly brokers and irreverant heretics Of
allsbades. 1t was matter of street ru-
NOR III those days and related 10 us yes
terday by gentleman, cognizant of the
priestly D's unpriestly ways, that be sur
prised him one summer evening in rather
close proximity, for priest, with a female
of suspicious morals. Certain it is that
not long after this he commenced paying
attentions TO the wife of a military gentle
man then boarding at the fremont House.
These attentions soon ripened into an inti-
macy rather warmer than friendship, and
at last it came to the ears of the officer
himself, who pursued The reverend Lotha-
rio, with pistol, for day or two, TO ap-
pease his injured honor. A rapid flight
by night to his Milwaukee diocese, and
the friendly caves of his convenient altar,
saved the Doctor his life and the county
an inquest. His visits 10 Chicago thereaf-
ter were like an angels visit. He minis
tered a short time to his Milwaukee flock
and then he left for New York, where he
associated himself with the Journal of
Commerce and afterwards with the New
York Herald. His subsequent career the
telegraph has unfolded.

ted floating battery at Green Point has
been armed with two III inch Columbiads
which have been furnished with 100
wraught-iron round shot, each ball costing

balls were made by forging square blocks
at the Novelty Works then turning them

pounds. Cast iron shot are liable tc
break to pieces when fired against thick

still continues sick at his own house, being
too unwell TO be removed That papel
says that when the Parson recovers he
will probably be allowed to depart, togeth

The reporter of the Cincinnati Gazette was
The only one of five persons who escaped

The injustice of the present law in re-
gard to jury fees is strongly. illustrated in
q case Just tried in Lake county. 1t was
suit for malicious prosecution, and the
trial occupied eight days, at a cost.o the
county for jury alone of $3.50, the party
obtaining the verdict being required to
pay only 5000 10 the jury. The Pains
vile Telegraph says it is not right, and
we trust the General Assembly will SO de-
eide and reform this long tolerated rob
beiy of taxpayers.
Religious revivals are in progress in sev
eral towns in Trumbull county. The
Chronicle mentions Brookfed, Weather
field, Hubbard, liberty and Warren as
specially favored with conversions.
1t is stated that Secretary Cameron 5
son made more than million of dollars
in horse contracts, and other operations,
under the administration of the War De-
partment by his father! We trust the
statement is not true.
