CUr Our--The steamer Washington IT.
wing. seized here for debt, and in the hands OF
the U. s. Marshal and Sheriff jointly, took
out Yesterday without the usual clearance
fror, thu Custom House. Chas. T. Barry, the
D.puty U. s. Marshal boarded the vessel at
the foot of Washington street, and found steam
up. He walked up to Capt. Olney and in
formed him that he was going to lay the boat
under the guns of the Cutter. The locks
were broke by order Of Capt. olney, and the
boat started. Barry having been beat by
sharp practice before, made him fork over his
claim Of 81, 100, and he and the guard were
landed at Fort Norfolk. Waterman Snyder,
placed there by the Sheriff, not being on hand,
the boat proceeded on her way to Gotham
Deputy Nelson hearing of it, Immediately
proceeded to the wharf, and not being able to
get boat to pursue, his only chance was to
telegraph to Fort Monroe to Gen. Miles, who
sent tug out and fred at the absconding
steamer, but tono purpose, as she kept on.
We are informed this morning. by Sheriff
Deggs, that the Washington Irving was over
hauled outside the Capes by the Steamer Eliza
Hancock; about ten o'clock last night, which
steamer was sent in pursuit, by Gen. Miles,
commanding at Fortress Monroe. 1t is also
reported that one of the guard on board of
the Eliza Hancock was wounded by a slot fired
from the Washington living. II such is the
ease 1t is clear case of piracy. The whole
affair, in connection with the running off of
this steamer, should be thoroughly and rigidly
investigated. So.
We have since learned that the Eliza Han
cock, when she came up with the Irving pla-
eed guard on board, with instructions to
bring the steamer up to Old Point. The Han
cock reached there early this morning; but the
Irving had not made her appearance, at the
latest intelligence, and the apprehension is
that the guard was overpowered, and the
steamer kept upon her voyage.
Query.-Why was not the Ascending stea-
mer when overhauled by the Government
boat, taken in tow, and brought back This
would have been the safest course

Love and Villainy.


The Cohoes Cataract relates a case OF the
Above nature that is almost too hard TO believe.
Abont eight months since young man OF pre-
NE name OF David Pattyplace, found his way
70 the village of Milford, Mass, and engaged
board AZ the house Of Mrs. Fannie T. Bailey, O
widow woman with four children, the eldest
daughter of thirteen years. He succeeded SO
well in in gratiating himself into Mrs. BIS con-
hdence and affection, that criminal intimacy
y long Concealed. Taxing still fur,Ssr a n9I
vantage OF The unfortunate woman, he from
time TO time borrowed money from her, amount
ing In the aggregate to three or four hundred
dollars. BY her liberality toward hlm she
became n last so deeply involved in debt that
she was obliged to sell her house and lot the
reward Of long years of industry. Not content
her little ones, from her home, he next turned
ms attention to the eldest daughter an inuo-
cent simple minded child, and soon sue
eeeded In making her the victim of his hellish
lust, without exciting the suspicious of the
mother. as he was in the habit of accompa-
nying her 70 balls, parties, and other places at
evening. where she was removed from the ma
ernal eye. 1t seems strange that the mother
eouId thus unsuspectingly trust her daughter
70 the care of one who had already accom-
phshed her own ruin; but il would seem that
enc looked upon the villain as her future hus-
band, and regarded the interest he mani tested
for the daughter as a sort of paternal one.
Thus matters passed along, until a few days
SINCE, when he hired horse and sleigh, and
with Mrs. i, IS permission, took the daughter to
q dance six miles distant After the dance was
over, instead of returning, he persuaded her to
accom- any him TO the residence of his cousin
come nifty miles distant in Rhode Island Ar
irving there, he sent the conveyance back TO
Milford by Young man, who informed Mrs
b. OF her daughters whereabouts Quickly
the mother followed the erring child, and en-
oeaYored TO persuade her to return home, but
tne villain objected and induced her to leave
her home the next day; but instead of doing
tnis they took the cars in a different direction,
proceeded TO Valley Falls, II. L., and from there
10 Hudson, and thence TO Cohoes, where he
procured board with a Mrs. Alger, corner of
White and Sergeant streets, and remained as
man and wife until a day or two since. when
be aosconded, leaving the young Miss Bailey
without cent OF money or q change of CLOTH
ing. He was arrested in Amsterdam
