Finale of the Grand SwindIing
scheme Of w. A. BidweIl a co..
The Chief Operator Captured.

The commercial world, as well as the
public at large, has been good deal agita-
ted during the past three days on account
of a grand swindling operation that was
commenced and carried forward by w. A.
Bidwen 81 Co, who opened commission
business some time in December last, in
Cincinnati. But of that we have spoken
before, and also of the fact that Bidwell,
accompanied by his partner, Kibbe, abb
seconded on Wednesday night last, leaving
q large number Of creditors, whom he
mulcted In, disconsolate for his sudden dis
appearance, and therefore we will say
nothing further about that, our purpose
now being to state that the swindler has
been, capttTed.s eAvF A Ea p-sg
When the fact became known that two
men, answering the description of Bidwell
and Kibbe, had spent portion of Wednes-
miles from the city, taking their departure
next morning at an early hour, detective
officers Larry Hazen and Gus Colchear, i'm
mediately left inpursuit. Arriving at the
Crossings, they got all the Information pos
sible from Mr.. Foster, and then accompa-
MED by young son Of Mr.. Foster, officers
Hazen and OOlchear took soItherly direc-
tion to the Ohio river, and officer Sam Bay
liss, northwesterly direction to cut them
off at Dayton. The former got upon their
track, and yesterday morning about eight
o'clock, came up with the. swindlers at q
house one mile from Goshen, In Clermont
county. Bidwell was employed In black
ing his boots, and unfortunately for all par
ties, the officers were seen approaching the
house which was a signal for them to fly.
They fled from the rear Of the house TAX
ing across a field through which they had
to pass, to reach the woods, that seemed to
them place of apparent security. Young
Foster being the iieetcst Of foot. soon got
within hailing distance of Bidwell, andcom
manded him to halt which command was not
only disregardetl, but an attempt was made
by Bidwell, as Foster thought, to draw pis-
tol from hispocket, which prompted Foster to
draw his revolver and fire away at him. He
fired three shots, one of which struck him
(BidwelD on the left leg, another in the small
Of the back, the third taking effect in his
rightarm, which brought their manto halt.
He was then secured, brought to the city
and conducted to the Ninth Street Station
House, where he had his wounds dressed by
Doctor. Ludlow, after which he was COM
mitted to Jail to await an examination
which will take placein day or two. The
greater. part Of the jewelry which, he had
purchased from Messrs McGrew, Duhme,
Lange and Elias was secured.
Kibbe succeeded in making his escape,
but as the whole country around there was
In commotion about the matter 1t was
thought next to an impossibility that he

PhrenOlogists, from the days of Gall and
Spurzheim, have written much in regard
to the premature development and decay
of children. In their practice ss phrenol-
Ogists, they found that forward children
of which foolish parents are usually most
proud, are, as rule, either short lived, or
that, if they come iutO the full stature of
men and women, they develop less chaFac-
ter than those more slow and backward in
ripening. The last number of the Phreno-
logical Journal reads mothers a lesson on
this subjectin the following words
The business of childhood is to grow,
to grow bodily, to take on constitution, to
lay in stock Of vitality for future use.
Many parents seem to suppose the busi-
nes Of childhood 70 be to get an education,
and they lose sight Of the more important
part, that Of getting bodily health, strength
and Vigor. Put a young ellt inte harness
or under the saddle when not half grown,
and he remains weak and spiritlesB an
imal, if not worthless, and dies at the age
Of dozen years whereas, If permitted 10
get his growth, he becomes strong, frm
and vigorous before breaking into service.
He will work steadily for twenty years.
And Sd it is with human beings; they
must not be forced. In hot-house plants
may be stimulated to flower before the
time, but they decay as much sooner.

ALondcn letter to the Cincinnati Gazette
says that in comparison with the English
we don't know anything about sdVsrtis-
ing, and that the tricks and shifts resOrtsd
to to attract public attention to an article
or place Of business ara manifold and as
tonishing. Here is one which the writer
witnessed himself:
"The other day in passing along the
street, stepped with large crowd near
a meat store, where loud altercstion UsG
proceeding, with loud and angry language.
1t WAS on Saturday evening, and the
streets were filed with people and market
stalls, somewhat as Fifth street in Cincin-
natl is on the same evening. 1t was easy,
therefore, to gather o crowd by any dis
turbanee. In this meat store the chief
butcher was threatening most violently
junior partner because be had sold
string 1f the finest sausage at only nine
pence pound TO some woman the butch
er "would not stand it by G-j" "he
would break up the partnership to-mor-
row." and "if he did not take care he
would knock the breath out him there"
The other Whiued out some apology and
de6ed him. "Here are saussges that cost
me nine.pence," holding them up to the
crowd, "and he gees snd sells them for
thGt-these best Kentishtowns. If you,
sir, ever sell another one for less that ten
pence, you'll,estoh itW Now the sausHges
were scarcely purehasable elsewhere in the
market under shilling, and it actually
turned out shat this noise and fury were
all q mock scene to bring crowd to the
door and advertise the sausage. l saw

William, son of Edward Everett, lee
tured in Boston, before the Lowell AssO-

1t is stated that General Grants bap-
tisimsl name was Hiram Ulysses, but that
the member Of Congress who nominated
him to q csdet-ship at West Point got his
name mixed up with that Of his brother,
and he was appointed Ulysses Sidney, and
that name once on the Records Of the Mil
itary Academy, could not be changed. He
was baptized into the Military School as
Q. s. Grant, and he has ever since borne
that name.
Msjor Bruce Cameron, son Of Ell Secre-
retary Cameron, who wss recently placed
upon the retired Army list with Psymss-
ter's pay, is dead.
Samuel Sinclair, the widely known pub
Usher Of the New York Tribune, has re-
tired from his responsible post to serve q
new national bank in New York as Cash
Ter. McElrath succeeds him.
Hon. E. B. Ewing, one Of the most dis.
tiDguished citizens of Nashville, s few
days since took the oath prescribed by Mr..

Thurlow Weed is in Washington, and it
is maiciously hinted that, being the pos
SCISSOR of several thousand barrels of whis-
Ky, he is there to lobby through the heavy
increase Of tax on that article.
The increase of Henry Ward Bsecher's s
salary has been announced by telegraph.
An effort was made to raise it to Sl5, 600,
in consideration Of the charitable dispo-
sition of the reverend gentleman. 1t was
finally put at $l2,500.
General Kelly is described as plain,
hard working, conscientious, brave and
vigilant mani no Napoleon, but one Of the
most useful, clesr-sighted and vigorous
men that have cOmmshded in the present

some points criticises him severely.

II is somewhat Of q coincidence that
such political sntipodes as Thsddeus Stew
ems and James Buchanan should live with
in 8 mile Of each other, and both be old
bachelors. There is not much difference
in the ages Of the two celebrities. Psrson
Brownlow once said of the old public
funetionsry, thst a man who would live to
his age without marrying a woman was
not ft for wolf bait; and Thsddeus must
consider himself in this category, unless
he can get the Psrson to make his case 3
special exception. Mr.. Stevens is YER
monter by birth, having added one to the
population Of the Green Mountain State in
1898; so that he is now in his seventy
second year. His life Of single blessed
ness has not exempted him from the en-
croschmenis which Time is won't to make
upon the human constitution, nor freed
him from the infrmities natural to the
eighth decade. Still, notwithstanding he
has passed the grand climacteric, aud de-
formed to the extent Of club foot, he
manages to "get around in the Capitol
very well, and walks every day to and
from his place Of residence.
He is considered 9 very efficient officer

Chairman Of the Committee on Ways and

him, but a good deal of what is called
smartness, and little Of dry humor is
occs sionslly extracted from him by the

good deal Of the politician, somewhat Of
the patriot and large proportion ef the

Mr.. Stevens graduated in Dartmouth

Rut Two Parties.

In his speech at the banquet to the Irish
Brigade on Saturday evening, General
Mesgher thus pertinently presented the
question Of parties in the Union at this
time:
"There are but two parties in this coun-
try: one, the federal armies under Abrs-
ham Lincoln and the other, the rebel
armies under JEFF. Davis These are the
only two parties in the country to-day +;
and until the party headed by Davis has
been utterly routed and snnihilRted, stand
By your party. 1t is the party of the
country, Of It's history, of its future
The people Of the North are rapidly
coming to understand this question of par
ties precisely as General Meagher states it.
They SEQ that there are but two sides to
this controversy: that either we mus!
crush the rebellion or the rebellion will
crush US. And they mean that there shall
be no doubt of the issus-the rebellion
must be destroyed and the nation saved to
bless mankind for centuries to come by Its
influence and example.

ARoa in pIeEIs for COntractOrs.

One Of the best measures introduced in
Congress this session is the resolution Of
Mr.. Wsshburne investing the Committee
on the Conduct Of the War with power to
examine into all contracts made or that
shall be made up to the time Of the com
mittee's making its report. Armed with
authority to meet during the session or in
the recess, and to send for psrfons and pa.
pers, it will be difficult for any suspicious
operation to escape its notice, provided the
committee be thorough and honest in its
Investigations. OF course the efficiency Of
the committee will very much depend on
the elements Of which it is to be composed;
but, as all parties will have to be appoint
ed on it to give it a complexion Of fair
ness, it ought to work well for the public
interests. A body like this, sitting en-
permaHenee, cannot but exercise q whole
some influence over both government off,
GERS and contractors. When the latter
find that detection is prompt snd punish.
ment certain they will make up their
minds that honesty is the best policy

is wrong, il is not logical to advise our
