A Singular Case.
From the Ne,o Haven Journal,

From the Netc HaUen Journal, 26th.
A singular case OF alteration of mind occurred
at Bridgeport on Friday last. Mr.. Z. W. Thomp-
son, night clerk at the Atlantic House in that
city, being sick, telegraphed on Friday to his
wife at Plainville to come to him. She came
down on that day. and in the afternoon She
while sitting in his room with him, fell asleep
While she was asleep he got out of his bed,
laboring, 1t seems, at the time under a fit OF
alteration of mind, dressed himself, wrote a
note to his wife, which he left for her, telling her
that she would never see him alive, and then
left the hotel and took the express train
for this city. On arriving here he took
two rings off his fingers and put them
in a diary and sent the diary with note
to Mr.. Hale, the proprietor of the Atlantic
House. The note stated that he wished Mr..
Hale to take the rings and pay his bills and
give his wife the balance, and added that he
would never see him more. MIR. Thompson
then went down TO the steamboat dock, paid
toll at the Tomllnson bridge, and walked over
to East Haven, where he tried to get lodgings
for the night Failing to do this, he came back
to the steamboat and took passage to New York,
where he was found on Saturday with only ten
cents in his pockets, and had been twenty-fou1
hours without eating. He was brought back to
Bridgeport on the six O'Clock train Saturday
afternoon and is now at the hotel there under
proper medical treatment. Though still affected
in his mind there are strong hopes of his re-
cOVery.

widowers 81 are only 20 years of age, and there
are $40 widows of the same age. France pos
fifteen to twenty years of age, and l,SOS, 1866 boys
of the same age. The greatest examples of
longevity are supplied by females. Three
females out OF four hundred persons

THE WILL OF JARED SPARKs.-The will of Jared
Sparks was this day presented for probate at
the East Cambridge Court. His property is
valued at about $50, 600. There are no public
bequests, with this eXception:-His 'hstorlcal
manuscript papers, bound IN Volumes are given
to his son temporarily, and ultimately to the
library of Harvard College, ION the express con-
dition that the said manuscripts shall always
be kept together in one case, and be opened to
the inspection OF such persons as are authorized
to consult books in the said library, under such
rules as will secure their safe and careful pre-
servation, and that no part of them shall ever

Importsnt from New Orleans.

The New Orleans journals of the 22d, which
reach us to-day, contain the announcement that
the military interdict upon the Mayor elect, Mr..
Monroe, has been removed doubtless by an
order from President Johnson-so that the city
is now finally placed in the hands of the muni
cipal government elected by the people. So, ut
least, we interpret the following official order,
which the Pacdyune publishes under the head of
"Finally Settled";-
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF LOUISIANA,
NEW ORLEANs, La, March 30, 1S66.-The Mayor
pro tempore of the city of New Orleans having re.
ported that the municipal government of the city
has been organized IN accordance with the provi-
of the charter, j. Ad Roner, Esq is relieved
from the special duty assigned him by Special Order
No. 68, paragraph g. OF the 10th inst, and George
Clarke, Esq, President of the Board of Aldermen,
is recognized under the 18th section of the charter
as May or pro tompore OF the city of New Orleans.
The temporary appointments made by Mr. Rozier
will be vacated as soon as their successors are ap-
pointed. BY order of

The Advertising swindler Dodge in Boston

The Boston Traveller of March Il states that
the police are looking after the advertising
sWindlers in that city, and hunted up the fol-
lowing latest advertisement OF the kind;-
PERSONALLY YOUNG LADY OF II YEARS

with view to matrimony l am residing with an

over the properly am heir to az my marriage, the

receipt of 81 10 pay travelling expenses. Address
Post Office, Box 1856, Boston,
Deputy Constable Barker visited the Post
Office at an early hour on Tuesday, and during
the forenoon man visited the office, proceeded
to box No. $685. and took about torty letters
from 1t, Whereupon the officer arrested him
upon a charge OF obtaining money under false
pretenses, and locked him up for examination
in the Police Court. He is man about forty
years of age, and gave his name as Henry o..
Morton, but his real name Is said 10 be Angus
tus III. Morrison.
1t is stated that he is married, resides in
Maiden, and is a man of considerable property.
He informed the officer that he inserted the
advertisements for the fun of the thing.
OF the letters that Morrison took from the box
yesterday, about twenty contained fifty cents
each in postal currency. On previous days the
number of letters taken from the box, which
Morrison has had for some time, has been as
high as seventy-fve or one hundred.
One man had enclosed counterfeit fifty cent
piece in his letter. Shortly afterwards he re-
ceived reply from the "young lady" stating
that if he twas ike his money he was a coun
terieit,n and signed ''Yours, @. Cordova.n
Since tho arrest of Morrison several young
men have called upon Deputy Constable Barker.
and informed him that they had answered the
advertisement, and enclosed the required fifty
cents for the photograph of the fair unknown.
From the above 1t will be seen that ''all the
fools are not dead YETI and that Morrison has
been Teaping rich harvest by his swindlinG
operations.

A Yankee Eneid.

The winsted Herald has "done" the fourth
book ol the Hned into modern American"
which would provoke the rsibles OF the soberest
admirers OF the Mantuan bard, Only to think
Of the classic DIDO disclosing to sister Anna her
passion for Hneas after this fashion:-
"Siser my nights are tull of wild unrest,
This nice young man that's now stopping here
To my affections Is a growing dear;
Celestial IS hs origin, l know;
such fearless souls don't emanate below.
NY grief, what savage fights that man mas ht,
And how genteel he eau get mp and git,
"'lf1 hadn't vowed not 10 love again,
Pm not quite certain but should cave IN,
Since poor dear SIC was slew BY brother Pyg,
For no live man / ever cared hg,
} Ill unto Carthage tiis brave hero came
But now-I swami feel the ancient name;
But with my parents dust W ,ud be mixed,
Or with the thunderbolts of Jove transfxed,
Before I'D break the laws OF modestYJ
Or scandalize our very best society;
WhIe poor Sch@us keeps his cohnd state,
NY heart lies with his ashes-thats my gait"
Or ofimperial Juno saying to Venus:-
"what a condemned smart pair of gods you be,
You and your boy may deem it big thing
To get this feeble woman on q string,
But cont see i'll though 90 see this
You're down on my new built metropolis!
Now wither do your Vaccinations tend,
Or when wIl these deploIed contentious endY
You have accomplished all your hearts desire;
Poor DIDO owes him like house afre;
Why not nnlte them in the bands OF HYmen,
So you and me can nye two loving womenF
Let's put the royal robes upon their DacKs;
And you and so tuteary tracks"
And the Queen of Love replying:-
"Yes'em, since your disposed the handsome thing to

/ must not be at loggerheads with you
But Jupiter, yer know. must have his say,
Or else there'l be the very ju CO to pay;
You are his wiie-pump him-Pve no doubt

Or the fair Princess of Carthage issuing from

Her handkerchief pertumeried with vanIler."
And OF her thus berating her absconding
loYer:-
"Fapadoodle what piOus man you be!
Well go and leave me lone and destitute

5-O1lr Mutual Friend was produced at Chi
Cago theatre, the other evening, without the
character OF "Wegg.n The part was in the piece,
and was to be played by the leading comedian,
but as that worthy "a Mr.. Dillon) had diff
Guilty with the manager during the day, and re-
fused to 90 on the stage in the evening, the part
was omitted, and the piece proceeded without
him. Here was performance OF Hanltet-With
the Prince left out indeed. "Wegg" is not
merely the most picturesque and humorous
character-he is the ubiquitous villain of the
play. He is necessary TO its unity and vitality
as Heep TO "Dayid Oopperheld;" or to take a
higher example, as "Falstaif" to the historical
play IA which he figures 80 largely.

Light Breaking.

Feb. 26.1S66.

LlSnJ breaking.
A glorious ray Of light has broken in
on our sorely stricken land; Andrew John
son has proven himself worthy Of filling
the position occupied by Washington and
Jackson. He has boldly met the issues
presented to him by the Radicals and has
appealed to the people to sustain him in
protecting the Constitution from violation.
He has proved himself the man for the
times and by his magnanimous course has
endeared himself to the whole Southern
people. The effect of his great speech on
the 22d will be magical on the South
Every man feels like their was something
to live for yet and new life and energy
will be infused into our people. The masses
Of the North are coming boldly to the
aid of the President. We can only bid
him "God speed" in the good work he
has commenced and that we do with a
hearty good will, promising to do our part,

The Twenty-second in Washington. The
President boldly defines his position.

President boldly defines his position.
The reliable special Geographic CORE
spondent Of the Richmond Enquirer gives
the following graphic description of the
22d in Washington.
This has been gala day in Washington
The departments and business houses are
all closed. The memorial ceremonies of
Winter Davis attracted crowd at the
capital early in the day, but the great mass
were assembled in the vicinity Of Growers
Theatre, to endorse the President. The
theatre was packed from pit to dome. Two
stands outside we're surrounded with i'm
mense crowds. The whole population
turned out to participate in the movement.
Numerous speeches were made by Repub-
licans and Democrats, abjuring all parti-
zan folly and promising to sustain the
President in his course. At four o'clock
the crowd repaired to the White House.
johnson speech was the boldest ever made
by President. He announced his policy
fully and distinctly flung defiance in the
face Of his opponents; denounced by name
Thad. Stevens, Charles Sumner and Wen
dell Phillips, as rebels and traitors against
the Government, and pledged himself to
stand by the people, the Constitution and
the Union, against all such traitors.
The audience was electrified by his
boldness. lie went into detail, and spoke
for an hour and half with plainncss
that has not been used since the time of
jackson. Abiding to the reception of
Southern Representatives, he insisted they
had right to be admitted. His speech
was applauGed to the echo by a vast crowd.
Many old politicians were astounded at
the boldness with which he made war up
on the Radicals. This speech is the "vade
mccain Of the President. Everything he
intends to do is included in it. The issue
between him and the Radicals has been
squarely made. Hereafter those who are
not with him must be against him. Some
objected to the speech, as undignifed for
President, but no President was ever
placed as he is, and the speech was to the
country and it was received with immense
applause.
