A TRIBUNE YARN.

NEW YORK Aug. 9-The T5sbure's Raleigh
correspondent says negro named Curry, who
some years since made his escape from slavery,
a few days ago reappeared in his old neighbor-
hood in search Of his family, to take them
North. He was set upon by citizens and near
" killed. He related bis case to General Ames,
who sent squad of cavalry out and had the
assailants brought to him.
Gov. Holden then notified Gen. Ames that
he had appointed Justices of the Peace to at
tend to such cases, and he had no doubt justice
would be done; but Gen. Ames retains his
prisoners. Meantime charge of assault and
battery has been brought against Curry, and
he too has been arrested and imprisoned by
Gov HOldens officers.

Cur ship-owners are aaxously awaiting fur

pecting intelligence of the destruction of still
more of their vessels by the pirate. There is
a bare possibility that the captain OF the She

ship-owners here effected insurance upon their
vessels at offices in New York (the offices here
having already taken their limit), to the
amount of over one million of dollars. The
rate, 10 per cent, is heavy, but the sleep of the
insured is more quiet. The premium notes

to pay them than to have the amounts deduct.

SCANDAL IN BROOKLYN.
From the New York Express, July rs.

From the New York Express, July %.
Last August, an unmarried woman, aged
about thirty years, by nsme Lucy s. Jones,
came to Brooklyn to live with her brother,
William Bidkar Jones, corner of Green
and Classon avenues. She was in INDECENT
circumstances, and intended making her
brothers house her home, provided she
could procure sewing enough to secure
livelihood. Shortly after the entire family
went on an excursion to Coney Island, and
ate rather heartily of roast CLAIMS, which
made most of them sick, particularly Miss
Lucy. Feeling rather uneasy, they sent
for physician, and DIR. J. s. Walter being
the nearest one, he was called in. He at
tended the family regularly thereafter as
their physician, Lucy being sick consider
ably. A bill had by this time run up to a
considerable amount, and when it was pre-
sented Lucy said she was poor, had no mon
ey, and did not know how she was to pay
it. The doctor then proposed that the
payment be made in sewing for bis wife
and children, which proposition was &C
cepted, and thus they were thrown to-
gether. Shortly after this Miss Jones was
taken i'll at her brothers house, with a dis
ease quite common to females, and DR..
Walter was called in to treat her.. He
told her folks that it would be necessary
for him to hold a private medical exaniH-
alton, which was consented to. The doc
tor then insisted that she must remain in
Brooklyn, and be treated therefore, if she
would recover. Ever after this, when the
doctor called, his visits were strictly pri-
vote ,,n1or rnfv,
and during these interviews, it is alleged
that he seduced the complainant, assuring
her that this was the manner in which all
such diseases were examined and treated
This was carried Cd until February, 1865.
when Miss Jones returned to Springfield,
Mas: During the treatment, finding that
his "patient " was enciente, DR.. Walter
gave her tansy tea, barks and other medi-
cines, for the purpose of causing an abor-
ton, all of which, however, failed of this
result, eventuating in great agony, pain
and protracted illness to the complainant.
On July LIST Miss Jones was delivered of a
child-dead, however. Her sufferings are
represented as most intense, her life for a
long time hanging upon thread, and even
now she is in a very dangerous condition.
The lady Immediately made affidavit Of
the facts narrated, and caused the arrest
of the Doctor. Two weeks ago William
Jones, her brother, went before Judge
Reynolds with his sisters complaint,
whereupon the Judge issued an order of
arrest for Walter, in default of $1,000
bail. The Doctor was seen to enter his
residence in Gates avenue, corner of Glas-
son avenue, and shortly after the officer
entered the room, and claimed him as a
prisoner, taking with him small boy who
Unidentified the person arrested as DR.. j.
8. Walter. He was arrested and lodged
in Kings county Jail. His wife is said to
be the daughter Of a respectable citizen re-
siding in 10th street, New York.

a remarkable contrast to its predecessor Ill
1864. While that was the warmest July known
for wears, this which has just passed was Tue

BILE IN some respects to the growing crops es,
peciAlly to corn. The season has oeen one OF
the most healthy known in this vicinity. Inc
mortality, as. reported from the cemeteries
shows very striking decrease from last year
while the testimony of the physicians is to the
same effect. Reports from all parts OF the
State are unanimous as to the promise OF the
growing crops. The grasshoppers and cut
worms have done same injury in certain local
tiles. But it will hardly affect the general re-
suit. Nothing but rain can interfere with the
gathering OF the most abundant harvest ever
reaped in Minnesota. The Mississippi not
withstanding the large amount OF rain, has
fallen to . very low stage, and some OF the
larger boats cannot reach Saint Paul
