Scandal, in High Life.

The Baltimore american says there has
been considerable excitement for some
time past among. the higher circles of
Baltimore society, relative to O series of
anonymous letters, which have been of
the most Infamous character. They have
found their way into very many house
holds, and they shave been working their
career of mischief for nearly three years
past. The author commenced:a q series of
scandal letters, Addressed ,to husbands,
accusing their wives of improper famil-
iarity with men, and to wives, pretending
to disclose improper intimacies on the
part of their husbands with the other
sex. feathers and mothers were also led
to great anxiety on account of their
daughters and sons, who we're warned by
anonymous letters of their.alleged jmpro-
prieties Among THE members of the
Maryland Club and "The German Club"
there has been great CONSERVATION and
trouble, with much ill-feehng and suspi-
.oien of one another, caused by letters re
ceiyed relative to the alleged doings of
their members. These letters are said to
have numbered. several hundreds, and
bore the impress of having been written
by some one who was on terms Of init
macy and perfect knowledge of the fam
lily relations of those to whom they were
addressed. They were written in style
that indicated the author to be highly
educated and perfectly familiar with an
cient and modern history, abounding in
quotations and comparisons that but few
could be familiar with.
For two years past there have been
suspicious afoat as to the authorship OF
these aetters, a comparison of those re-
ceived by different parties having estab-
lished the fact that they all emanatcd
from one person. Several persons have
been suspected at times, but few months
since q rumor was suddenly put afoat as
to q gentleman John Henry Keen, Jr.,)
being the author of them, although both
he and his family had received q largo
number of these missives, and some of
these of most mischievous and offensive
character Being unable to trace this
rumor to any dstinite source, and being
unwilling to rest under so grave an accu-
sation, he resolved to make an effort to
discover who was the real author. For
this purpose he employed experienced
detectives, and labored some two months
in the investigation, during which time
the missives were flying about as usual.
The matter has now assumed such form
that it will be made the subject of legal
investigation before the courts. A spicy
correspondence inrelation to the matter
appears in the advertisement columns
Of this mornings American, from which
it appears that Mr. Keen was led, from
tho evidence obtained by him, to charge
the wife of Frederick Barnal, representa-
tive of Her Britanic Majesty, with the
authorship. The matter is still unsettled.

COMPLETION OF TEE CHARLOTTE AND
SOUTH CAROLINA RAlLRoAD.-We are
highly gratified at being able to an
nouncc the completion of the track-laying
of the above railroad, yesterday sfter-
noon, and tho arrival Of the first passen-
ger train to-day, (Friday.) This read, it
viii be remembered, was almost entirely
destroyed, in February, 1865, from Col
umbia to Blackstocks-a distance of more
than fifty miles. The officers had innu-
merabfe difficulties to contend with, but
having gone manfully to work, surmount-
ed them all. The greater part Of the
road was relaid with the old; iron, after
the "kinks" were taken out-and how
this difficult job could be SO successfully
accomplished, is q mystery; for it really
seemed that Sherman's men understood
the business thoroughly, as some OF the
bars resembled augurs in appearance,
while others again were twined lovingly
around the neighboring trees. The mag
nifcent iron bridge, over the Catawba,
we are informed, will be completed IN a
week or ten days, when passengers can
be conveyed through without change OF
cars.-C Columbia Phenir, 27th ult.
