The A6sconder.-N. MCCLELLAN, whom
we noticed last week as having left town un.
der suspicious circumstances, it seems did
succeed in victinzing two parties, Mr.. CASE,
banker in this place, and RICHMOND & JACK
NAN, Of Dubuque. OF the former he got
fourteen hundred dollars, it being draw
against three car loads Of wheat which he
had sent forward, and for which he produced
the railroad receipt. Mr.. CASE not mistrust-
ing any wrong, let MCCLELLAN have the
money. 1t turned out that the three cars
contained but about four hundred bushels in
all, part of that screenings, and the entire lot
not worth more than four or five hundred dol
lars. MCCLELLAN left house and lot here
which Mr.. CASE has attached, and with tho
wheat and property will secure some eight or
nine hundred dollars of his claim, even il
he does not succeed in discovering the where.
abouts Of the swindler and arresting him.
The Dubuque firm lose something over
thousand dollars. 1t is almost positively
known that MCCLELLAN went to Canada, and
steps have been taken which may lead to his
arrest. 1t little singular that McCLEL-
Ian did not victimize others while he was
about it, as his standing as business man
was such that he could have procured several
thousand dollars more if he had made any
effort to do so, for no one appears to have
had the slightest suspicion that he was the
villain he has since proved himself to be.
