The Latest Chicago sensation.

Chicago would not be Chicago If IL did not
semi-weekly deveiope come new phase of it's
"faatuess." IL is the reporters elysum, Che
newspapers paradise. The latest case is one
of the most exciting Of all. A lady who has
been leader Of the ton, whose person has been
adorned by silks aud leces such as were riyaled
only on Broadway, whose toilet tables displayed
most gorgeous and resplenden jewels, who was
chief among the fashionable elite, who was,
moreover, a leading member of the Plymouth
Congregational Church, and q trustee of the
Old La1ies' Home, and who, finally, was the
landlady of one of the finest residences in the
Garden City, where she accommodated a few
choice and fashionable boarders-this lady has
been arrested and thrust into Jail for steslino.
Not for one offense, committed in thoughsless
moment, but for q systematic course of theft,
pursued at the stores where she traded, princi-
pally at Pslmer's and Shay's fashionable es-
tabishments The proprietors had long notlc-
cd that when she departed from these visits
some choice article had also departed which
had not been paid for.
So bold had she became in theae operations
that on one occasion at Shay's a valuable silk
went away with her, and few days subse-
gently, che returned with the identical silk to
get 1t changed because she did not like it -
The dry goods men were ungenerous enough to
suspec. her, and Shay ordered his clerks to watch
her Whenever she came again, On Friday of
last week che came again, and this time coolly
took up a fiVe dollar parasol from the counter
when she was requested by the proprietor to walk
into the back part of the store. She was highly
Indignant, and go, 1t may be said, was he,
when, In addition to the parasol a valuable shs nj
fell to the floor from It's concealed place under
meath her cloak, The result of the affair Wai
that che was sent to jail, and search Instituted
at her house, which resulted In finding about
one thousand dollars worth of goods, slowed
away as the result Of her siealings. She wal

THE FAMOUS ORDER NO. 8.
Hooker's Dismissal Recommended.

lt will be remembered by our readers that II
the report Of the committee on the Conduct Of
the War allusion was made 10 an order, No, 8
which General Burnside had drawn up, and held
ready to promulgste, with the assent of the
President; which, however, was withheld, and
20 the order never was published, Soon after
the report OF the committee appeared In print
Gen. John Cochrane, of New York, who held
a command uader Burnside, wrote and pub
lished letter in defense Of himself against
reflections upon his conduct for the part he
took In defeating movement which Burnside
had planned and had very much at heart, by
representations to the President, which induced
him to Countermand the order for the marching
of the expedition. In the course of his de-
tense, Gen. Cochrane said CT Order No. 8, II
"dismissed from the service aud relieved ol
their commands twenty general officers of the
Army OF the Potomac, who had disturbed Gen
Burnside. at the head of this stood tho sianif,
cant name Of Gen. JOE HOOKER"
This annunciaiion somewhat startled the
public, and much anxiety was evinced to see the
order, but II was not to be seen. Some uestion
ed the fact, 80 far as related to Con. Hooker
because the President, when he relieved Gen
Burnside, put Hooker In his place at the heat
OF the Army of the Potomac. But now tn,
cat is out OF the bag-the New York Herald
has, by some means, got hold OF the Order
Or what is said to be tho Order, and published
It. we give 1t as IL appears in that paper o
the 22d:

| regret to say that have ample evidence
that this order was issued In the terms above
recited.
This order, unjust and unworthy In lts pur-
poses and most offensive Ia its terms, Furnishes
q citizen and soldier for supporting candidate
for the Office Of Governor In bis own State who
received many thousand more votes of its
electors than any other candidate for the station,
iocludng the one who represented more partic-
ularly the views and purposes Of the National
Administration. Such acts are more disastrous
to the cause0 our Union than the loss of battles.
Such violent measures of partisansiIp weaken,
divide and distract the people OF the North,
at the very moment they are called upon with
out distinction OF party TO make vast sacrifices
OF blood and treasure to uphold the Govern
nent. Notwithstanding the notoriety of these
acts, the bill return throws no guard around
the rights and independence of our soldiers in
tho field. An amendment designed to protect
them against coercion and fraud, was rejected
In one branch of the Legislature.
deem II my duty not only TO state these OBJ
jections 10 the bill SO reasons why cannot
sligo 1t, but also to protest in behalf of the peo-
pie Of thiO State, against the wrongs Of which
have spoken, and for the further purpose OF
securing such discussion iu regard to them,
whom the nsitutiOn is amended in pursuance
OF the recommendations have submitted, that
the legislation which may be hereafter had
shall be calculated to secure the rights of our
cit'zeos and soldiers, and TO punish every at
tempt to in'ade thoir rignts by force or by
fraud. =
