Sad History or Crime and Sorrow.

A sad case Of seduction and abortion
recently came to light in Cleveland, the
victim being girl named Flora Jones,
aged l6 years, daughter of Mr.. Greg
ory Jones, formerly Of Rochester, n
Y, but latterly Of Jackson in this State
The father Of the unfortunate young
woman moved from Jackson to Cleye-
land in October last. The seducer is a
young man named Warner, also from
Jackson, who had been very intimate
with the young woman while at the lat
ter place. A week or two since War
ner-who is about 2l-ran away from
Jackson, carrying with him about $500
belonging to his father He followed
the young girl to Cleveland. His pa
rents suspecting that he had gone to
Cleveland, visited that city, and found
him living on the same street in the vi
cinity of the Jones family. Upon be-
ing questioned, the young man ac-
knowledged the fact that he had seduc-
ed the girl, and procured physician to
produce abortion-that she died from
the effects-that she was taken to Roch-
ester for interment, and that he had
paid the expenses of her illness and bu-
rial. As we have before stated, the
Prosecuting Attorney of the county
and Prof Thayer visited Rochester,
the remains were disinterred, and
post mortem examination held,c which
corroborated the above facts. Upon
the breast of the unfortunate victim,
and clasped in one of her hands, was
fovnd the miniature Of young Warren,
by whom she had been seduced.

A letter to the N. Y. Tribune, from
Annapolis, dated March 29th, says:
"The "reminiscences Of the returned
officers from Libby are in the main sim.
! liar, and mostly repetition of the old
tale. The officers explain the dodge
by which we have been made to believe
that the boxes sent from home and by
the Sanitary Commission, have been, or
are being delivered, thus: When flag
Of truce boat arrives, the rebels distrib-
ute few boxes, but stop tie moment
the next batch Of released dprisoners are
off, These men seeing the distribution
going on, announce that fact at home.
1t is averred by more than one officer
cognizant of the facts, that there have
been at least 1900 boxes received by
the rebels, but never distributed, some
of which are now on hand. The meth
cd of giving the contents of n box to
its owner, is somewhat ingenious, but
quite destructive. The unfortunate pos
SCISSOR is required TO bring his blanket
and spread it on the ground. The box
is opened, and package after package
taken out and examined. 'Cheeses are
cut into inch pieces aud pitched into the
blanket. Cans of condensed milk are
perforated with steel-pointed baton,
and follow suit. Packages of coffee,
tea, sugar, salt, etc., are torn open and
poured into the conglomeration. Cans
of butter are treated a la cans of milk,
and SO on through the whole category
of goodies. The unfortunate owner is
then told to take up his blanket and
walk, which he does, cursing the brute
who spoiled first his luxuries and then
his comfort. 1t is somewhat significant
that Col. Sanderson always received his
boxes, and unsearched.
In reference to the powder under Lib
by, Dick Turner, formerly connected
with the Eutaw House, Baltimore, but
now the hard-hearted adjutant of the
prison, told one of our officers who
questioned him, that he (Turner) knew
damned well that there was thousand
pounds of powder under the prison,

tiendish act. Major Turner called sew
eral Of the officers down, and told them
he understood they had aplan to escape,
but advised them not to try it, rs the
most effeetual means had been taken to
prevent its success. This was the day
after Kilpatrick's attack.
The robels use our privates at their
different trades. A call was made for
shoemakers, and about 1000 volunteer
ed, so as to escape the rigors of Belle
Isle. Col. Di Ccsnola, who was then
one Of the commission to distribute the
goods to the prisoners on Belle Isle,
seeing the advantage thus derived by
the rebels, cautioned the men through
their sergeants, that they were thus aid
ing and abetting the rebellion. When
this was understood, no more volunteers
were obtained. An inmate Of Fort
Warren thought Col. Cessnola had no
business to interfere with this pleasant
little arrangement of the rebels, and
Col. c. was relieved from the commits
sion.

36, 800 in Georgia. These numbers are
considerably beyond the legitimate pro-
portion Of those States. There were
also l76,739 free mulattos in the U. S.
in 1860, of whom l06,77O belonged to
the South, and go, 900 to the free States.
Of the free mulattes Virginia contained
23,4S5, which number, added TO her
slave mulattos, makes total Of misce-
genated population of 93,s24. Her
mulatto slaves alone exceeded the total
number of mulattos in the free States.
The whole number of mulattos, slave
and free, in the Union, in 1850, was
5ss,352, of whom 6o,969 belonged to
the free States, and 1883 to the slave

Delaware, and Florida--greater than
the white population Of Maryland-al-
most twice as great as that of S. Caro-
lima, and twice as great as the combined
population Of Delaware and Florida

.N'
A late French journal relates the fol-
lowing, which, it will be seen, is French
all over.
While Mons. GODDARD was filing an
immense balloon in the Champ de Mars,
he amused the spectators by sending
up the small figure of man, the per-
feet semblance of NJ Theirs, without
speotacles. The little man being filed
with gas, rose magestically into the air,
and was. soon lost to view among the
clouds. His adventures, which became
known next day, were curious. Thanks
to a strong and favorable gale, which
impelled him on his course, the little
balloon man arrived the same after
noon in sight of fine country house in
the neighborhood of Bleyro. 1t was
near the hour Of dinner, and the lady
of the mansion, who naturally thought
herself perfectly safe, was occupied in
the mysteries of her toilet.
1t was a warm day, and she had
opened one Of the windows which look
ed out upon the park, and was safe
from any prying eyes. While tranquil
ly engaged, by the assistance of corset
lacing, in reducing her size and shape
that would reflect credit on her hus-
bands taste, she was suddenly startled
by blast of wind, followed by a
strange noise; and Immediately the
easement was thrown open, and our
little balloon man entered her chamber
unannounced. The lady utters cry
of terror, and throws n shawl over her
shoulders. The little man, driven by
the wind, throws himself upon the un-
happy woman, who, screaming louder
than ever, pushes him off, and he con-
ceals himself under the bed.
Just as the wife, in n supplicating
voice., says to this novel Don JUAN

who seek to mollify his anger.

Fathers Growing old, John.

Our father's growing old. John,
His eyes are growing dim;
And years are on his shoulder laid,
A heavy weight for him
And you and are young aud hale,
And each stalwart man
And We must make his load as light
And easy as We can
He used to take the brunt, John,
AT cradle and the plow;
And earned our poridge by the sweat
That trickled down Ris brow
Yet never heard We him complain,
Whate'er his toll might be-
Nor wanted e'er welcome seat
Upon his solid knee.
And when our boy strength came, John,
And sturdy grew each limb,
He took US 10 the vel low field
To share the toll with him.
But he went forem ,st in The swath,
Tossing aside the grain
Just like the plow that heaves the soil,
Or ships that clear the main.
Now we must lead the van, John,
Through weather foul and fair
And let the old man read and doze,
And tilt his easy chair.
And he'll not mind it, John, you know,
AT eve to tell us DER
Those brave old days Of British times,
Our grandsires and the war.
Yes, fathers growing old, John,
His eyes are getting dim;
And mothers treading softly down
The deep descent with him;
But You and ] ore young and hale,
And each stalwart man
And we must make their path as smooth
And level as we can.

A Printer Sailor.

For number of years q well-known
and popular lake captain was in the
habit of sticking type" in the Herald
office during the winter, and even in
summer, when in port, he would often
drop in and "set up" an important
marine item, just to keep his hand in.
In 1853 he had command of one of the
fleet of vessels that left this port direct
for the British Isles. After long and
stormy passage, he found himself one
evening in the harbor of Cork. True
to his instincts he made break for a
printing office, and rs it happened, the
one that was handiest and in which he
found himself, was the marine paper Of
the city. He made his way to the
"composing-room," Of course, as he
would have done in his own country,
and told the man in charge that he had
an important and interesting "marine
item"
lie was informed that it was too late,
the men had all gone home, and that it
could not be "set up" The Captain
told hun it must be, as it was highly
important, and that if the foreman
would show him'a "case" and give
him "stick" he would do it himself
The foreman was incredulous, and
thought him little "shaky" in the up
per regions; but concluded to bumor
his whim, and so gave him the required
materials, and looked on in perfect as
tosishment; to see an American sailor
"pitch in" to the type boxes. In a
few minutes Captain "John" present
ed to the astonished Corkonian, in type,
correct and perfect, an item that was
of value to the paper When done
the foreman quietly asked him how he
learned to set type. Ae cody replied,
"oh! that's nothing. Everybody
knows how to set type in America"

the following as aninstance of the wrong
which may sometimes be perpetrated !:
A person named Corriveau, once mer-
chant at Quebec, was sentenced to death
about ten years ago for poisoning his
wife's mother. His sentence was COM
mqtcd to Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary for life. Recently q person died
at st Thomas. who made an important
revelation on his death bed. lie de-
clared that he was the spsrderer, and
completely exculpated Corriveau. The
dying man requested his confessor not
TO diyulge the fearful secret until six
months after his death and as that pc
riod has now expired, it is very proba-
bile that full investigation will again
be had into tie circumstances, in the
interest of justice and the unfortunate
