tne reply A flood of tears, drawn in the
bitterness of his misery, was the response of
1le unfortunate young man. He expressed
desire to see her. The clergyman, after
stating the circumstances to the warden, OBJ
'ained leave for brief finterview.
Half suspecting the TRUTH but still anxious
ly doubling, the sister was shown into cell
whose only inmate arose at her approach.
A wistiul gaze on the part of each, well of
tears swelling each eye, a convulsivc heaving
OF each bosom, outstretched arms, and close
embrace, imbued with all OF natures strength,
was the recognition of the convict brother
and his pure sister Why pursue the tale
tartherH What passed at that interview is
sacred to its participators, but with sorrow
iul hearts the party left the portals of the
prison.
On their return home the clergyman lost
no time in communicating with the authori-
ties in this city, and ascertained that two
years ago, under the name of VIM. DAYTON,
the erring youth had been sentenced to State
Prison by Recorder Hoffman. The neces-
sary steps were taken and the application
for the conyict's pardon is now before the
Governor
Delaware State journal and statesman., 1865-10-03


From the New York Express
About one year prior to the breaking ont
of the war, once affluent and highly re-
spectacle family of Brooklyn was reduced,
through misfortune, to state of penury.
The reverses preyed on the head of the
house, and he pined, sickened and died.
Grieved at the loss of her consort unable to
bear up alone with the vicissimdes of her fate,
his wife, in a few short days, followed the
partner of her joys and SORROWS to IAN eter-
nal rest" The family thus deprived of their
natural protectors, consisted of three grown
up daughters and son about sixteen years
ofage. Commissioning their situation, the
friends of the family undertook to provide
for them, and the daughters were adopted by
their relatives, the second daughter being
taken in the family of clergyman of de-
servedly national repute, The boy was also
adopted, but the family in which he was
located were too Puritanical for his tastes,
and he rebelled. Quarrels ensued, and re-
suited in the boy one day absenting himself
and never returning. The war breaking out
at that time, his family supposed he had en-
listed and had been killed
Thus matters continued until about week
since, when the clergyman above mentioned,
his adopted daughter and several friends
paid visit to Sing Sing State Prison. In
passing through one of the workshops, the
clergyman's attention was attracted by the
demeanor of one of the conyicts, who gazed
wistfully at the party, and who appeared
to be almost magnetically attracted towards
the lady. Something in his countenance
puzzled the clergyman, and he was at loss
to account for the sudden interest felt by him
in fellon, when the young lady turning
round, he saw a startling resemblance be-
tween the two. Instinctively it flashed
across his mind that the convict was the
missing brother of his adopted daughter
who is that MANI" he enquired of one of
the keepers, who accompanies the party
"0h that is notorious young pick pocket
who has been here two years already, and
will remain one year more"
Horror-struck at the reply, but still incred-
ulous, the clegyman asked permission of the
head keeper TO have few minutes conver.
sation with him. This was granted, and a
few moments the convict and his former
friend were together. The felon's tale was
soon told he enlisted, became thoroughly
stepped in the vices of the army, deserted,
became bounty jumpter, and the transition
was easy to that of picking of pocket. In
all his crimes he was attended by an old
thief, who was his tutor and mentor, and
repeated all the advantage of his pupils mis-.
deeds ''Tbat young lady is my sister,
suppose" said the convict. "She is, " was

WOMEN FOR WASHINGTON TERRI
TORY

Mr.. A. 5. Mercer, member of the Execu-
tive Council of Washington Territory, is now
in the Eastern States making arrangements to
send young women out to that Territory, so
that the settlers can be supplied with either
servants or wives, Says the New York
Post
The Government has granted him the use
ofa vessel free of charge. He has nearly
completed his colony Ofseyen hundred young
women, and hopes to get off in short time.
Almost the whole number are orphan girls.
All, without exception, arc of respectable
families and of excellent and undpubted per-
sonal character, Mr.. Mercer having taken
the greatest pains to satisfy himself on these
points.-Three hundred of these young wo-
men are the orphan daughters, and fifty are
the widows, of Union soldiers.
Mr. Mercer assures us that preparations
have been made to give these young wo-
men immediate employment and comfort
able homes on their arrival in the Ter
ritory. They will be scattered through
the country; will receive such wages as will
make neutrality-suspicious., and will be received
in the most respectable families. They will
not, therefore, need to marry, unless they
like; though we are told by Mr.. Mercer that
there are ten thousand unmarried men in the
Territory and not one hundred single wo-
men,
Mr.. Mercer says that the young men of
Washington Territory are, for the most part,
of good New England stock, thrifty, vigor-
our and energetic
The cost of transporting his colony of
seven hundred to their place of destination
will be not less than eighty thousand dollars.
OF this sum about ten thousand dollars have
been paid by those of the young women who
possess some means the remainder seventy
thousand must be assumed by Mr.. Mercer
