A NeedIessly Dishonest Woman
and n ShrevVd Detective.

MANY curious cases of attempts to de-
fraud persons by letter come to the notice
of postoffice detectives, and, strange. to
say, large part of these dishonest efforts
are made by women. This no doubt be-
cause women do not know how difficult it
is to swindle in this way, and also because
they do not think there is any danger of
detection.
A sculptor called upon postoffice de-
tective one day and showed him letter
which had evidently been opened at the
end and fastened again with mucilage, as
small corner of bill still adhered to the
paper. The letter asserted that the writer
had forwarded ten dollars in it to her friend.
The detective doubted the assertion, and
said he thought she pasted the piece of bill
on the paper herself. The sculptor would
not believe this at first, and said there
could be no reason for her resorting to de-
ception.
it appeared that he had chiseled h and
from piece of marble, and presented it to
the woman. He did not intend to charge
for it, but as she pressed him to name a
price, he said it was worth ten dollars
After returning to this city he received
letter, and of course thought 1t had been
opened and the money stolen. Not so
with the detective. He told the sculptor to
write to the woman that the letter contain
ed no money; to say nothing about the
piece of bill adhering to the paper, but to
say that the flap had not been broken
open.
| The woman wrote back to say that she
had fastened the bill to the paper with mu-
eifage, and asked him too look at the end
of the envelope and see if it had been. cut
open. This reply confirmed the suspicious
| of the detective, and a microscopic exam
nation of the fragment of the bill showed
that it had been torn from one dollar
note. In this case the woman's dishonesty
proved most unfortunate for her.-N. Y.

CFrom the Piqua Telegraph (German)J
We already stated in our first number
what course we intended to pursue in the
coming and all elections hereafter, that we
would only support such men as show
themselves worthy of the support of the
great and powerful German nation. no
matter whether Democrat or Republican; !;
and that we would make such men public
who throw their SANDER against the Ger
mans whenever they find opportunity. and
such a man is General Lee, the Republican
candidate for Lieutenant Governor for this
State. He is full-blooded othing
and a crazy temperance fanatic, and de-
serves good kick sfrom every German in
the State.
Our motto is: "Who is not for US, is
against u.s." and this is the case with Gen.
Lee.5 We are no partisan; do not favor one
party more than another, but it is our duty
| to preserve the rights of the Germans, and
make known the cowardly and crazy men
to the public.
We are not graduate of great Univer-
sity-only working man-and we do not
want more than what is right between good
and bad men. We talk to the Germans
/ through the '.Telegraph," and make known
to them the dangers which are surround
ing us. Let the wolves howl, but don't be
afraid. Stick together at the coming cleo
tion and victory VIII crown us. Remem-
Der the words of the heroic William Tell

E COLUMBUS, O., SATURDAY MORNING
Dickens Coming Aeaiu.

The American public will learn with
pleasure that their favorite among rovelists
and humorists is about to renew in their
ears the familiar but unwearying enter
tainments to which he has accustomed
their eyes. Mr.. Dickens agent, Mr.. Dolby,
has arrived in New York, to make arrange
ments for public readings of the character
which have given so much satisfaction in
the highest circles of his native country
Naturally, the readings may be expected
to follow at an early date in the fall. and it
is needless to say that Mr.. Dickens
will meet at once with a ,pecuniary
success and personal reception both
flattering and friendly. 1t is said that
some uncertainty has been felt of a
kindly reception to the author of american
Notes in America. The doubt is an alb
surdity, as great, perhaps, as any of the
usual misconceptions of American charac-
ter exhibited by our distinguished foreign
visitors. The American mind is not pro-
vincial, and has no small room for petty
grudges. As whole, its measurements
and its sympathies, so far as they are in
common to SO large people, are necessa-
rily large, and adapted to the estimation of
great men in their great qualities, neglect
ing the account of their peccadilloes. We
have really forgotten all about An.eri-
can Notes, while we are thankful
to Mr.. Dickens. for giving us so
tenjoy forever. He will meet with a
different reception from that which he
formerly experienced, not from any change
in our cordlality toward himself, except
as it has grown and deepened, but from the
marked expansion, in every sense, which
twenty years cannot pass without devel-
oping to the most careless eye in a people
like ours. Positively, Mr.. Dickens will
find himself a greater man here than be-
fore; relatively, much less, and yet by so
much the more truly honored in our self
respecting tribute to his talents and worth,
and our indifference to things that were
trivial to him, and much more trifles to us
