Bold and successful Forgery.

v. SYRACUSE, N. Y, July 18.-A bold
and successful forgery, perpetrated by
Rev. Mr.Mitchell, Methodist cler-
ryman, at Chittenango, Madison
County, has been discovered. He
forced the name of Robert Stewart,
President of the National Bank OF
Chiueeango. to draft for 50, 900,
payable to the order of Rev. Mr..
Greenleaf, Methodist minister at Lee
Center Mitchell and Greenleaf look
alike The f-rmer deceived Mr.. Carl
ton, the New York publisher, who
identified him as Greenleaf, to whose
order the draft was payable at the
Fourth National Bank of New York.
Mitchell got the money, and invested
it in Government securities. His
resemblance to Greenleaf led to his
detection. He has restored 81 GOO,
and effected his escape.

correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle, in

not long since, says:

First is based on something more than rumor,
or scandal, or the extraordinary resemblance
which he bore to his reputed father Napoleon
was at the height of his glory when he met at
fete at Warsaw, lady of exceeding beauty, the
wife of an aged Samaritan noble. The lady
looked upon Napoleon as the destined liberator
of her country, and gave him, in advance the
tribute of her heart. She forsook her husband,
and in 1910, at the Castle of Walewice, gave
birth to the late Count His career was bril-
liant one, both as a soldier and statesman, and
strongly tinged with romance. He escaped from
Poland, in spite of the refusal of the late Grand
Duke Constantine, and reached Paris He has
been Minister Plenipotentiary at various Euro
pean courts and when he was sent as Ambassa-
dor to England he won the favor even of the pro-
sale English. He gained a high literary reputa-
tion by bis plays, essays and pamphlets-in one
theatrical piece he was the coadu utor of the elder
Dumas. His love for his unhappy country never
waxed cold, and though he could effect so little
in aid of her struggles he upheld her cause in
the most chivalrous manner to the end. There
can be no question that the present Emperor al
ways regarded him as the son of Napoleon At
the death Of the Duke de Morny (the Emperor's
natural brother) he became President of the
Corps Legislatf. This post he resigned at the
end of march, last year, and since then has lived
in retirement.
