ERIE RAILROAD Co., CoMPTRoLLER's OFFICE, NEW
YORK, Oct 4, 1s69-IO the Editor Of the NJ Y SUM-
Dear Sir:-There seems to be no longer any doubt
that Mr. A. r. Corbin, brOther-in-law of President
Grant, has stated to your reporter that he did not
associate with such men as myself; that l had not
been to his house since last summer; that he had
tions; and that Mr. Grant would not hold an inter
view with any such man as myself.
These statements make 1t necessary for me to
state that Mr. Corbn has constantly associated with
me; that have been in his house repeatedly since
last SUNNI err that visited him on the very after
noon OF the day on which he made these state
ments and that he spent more than hour with me
In the Erie Railway olCe on the afternoon or SaGur
day, September rs, the day after the gold panic.
1t is further proper for me to say that Mr.. Corbin
has been party in interest with u.s. and others
whose names it is not now necessary to mention, in
the recent gold speculation, and that he has con-
stantly communicated with me respecting this gold
speculation.
IN fact, MIR. Corbin was in this speculation long
before Was 1t had been organized and carried on
by him al other gentlemen Tor some weeks before
knew OF It's existence lie is en- tiled to almost
advancing the price OF gold, and Willingly disclaim
in his favor the honor-so kindly imputed TO me by
the press in general-of having devised this bold
and brilliant operation.
mind; and long before knew anything OF it, Mr..
Corbin's representations concerning the powerful
infue nee which he could bring to bear in favor Of
the speculation had enlisted in his support other
gentlemen of means and capacity; and it is only
just say that Mr.. Corhlns this point
were fully carried out up to the 23d CT September.
AS to the remaining point OF Mr. Corbns state
ments is sufficient to refer to the Associated Press
despatch from Washington this morning, by which
1t will be seen that General Grant speaks freely of
an interview which he had with me on my boat last
summer, and which was exceedingly pleasant on
both sides.

SENSATIONS.

Matters of Love, Divorce, and Superstition.
Under the head of "Dlvorce Extraordinary"
the Weston (Platte county, Landmark, of the
10th ultimo, emitting the names of the parties,
gives the following:-"We have just learned
that an old gentleman, aged ninety-four years,
and his wife, aged eighty-seven residents of
Pettis township after living together for seventy
years, concluded the other day to dissolve their
marital relation. They made an equal division
of their property and went separate ways. A
more remarkable divorce case is seldom
heard Of"
A most delightful sensation was nipped in
the bud the other night lovely and charm
ing blonde of Oxford England, whose father
was cruelty obdurate, had nearly escaped
through the window to join her anxious sweet
haalt, who had arranged everything for an i'm
Z mediate wedding. As she put her delicate foot
through the window upon the first round of the
ladder, alas alas her crinoline caught upon
the bell-handle by the fireplace, and the poor
!, girl unable to advance or retreat was detained
until chambermaid accidentally entered the
room and released her from her perilous posi-
tion. OF course the bell created an alarm, which
rendered elopement impossible.
The Inhabitants of Airdrle (Scotland) have
during the past week been much exercised by
rumor that ghost was in the habit of nightly
haunting Chapel street and its vicinity. Various
reports were circulated to the affair-some
affirming that the ghost had come out of Chapel
street churchyard, having been forced therefrom
by the overcrowding that prevails there; while
others confidently stated that it was merely
silly prank. One night lately young woman
was proceeding home, and had reached dark
part OF the street, when she met the ghostly APP
partition, which was a tall figure with black
face, and habited in white garment, which had
a luminous appearance. She was SO overcome
that she tainted away. The girls mother, look
Ing out of the window of her house, also saw the
ghost going down Wellington street, and got
such a fright that she took to her bed, and, we
understand, is still i'll. Three young men who
had heard of these circumstances went out for
the purpose OF meeting the ghost and
Furnishing it. Their wish was gratihed,
bit a sight of the fearful spectacle as
one of them termed it, proved too much for
their courage and they ran away. One Monday
night the ghost proceeded to a brlckfeld in the
vicinity for the purpose of obtaining light for
his pipe at one of the kins there being evidently
human enough to partake of the fragrant weed
While enjoying his smoke he was suddenly in

BALTIMORE, Oct 5-The jury in the Superior
Court this morning brought in a verdict in the
case of George Snyder VS.. g. G. Fulton & Son,
editors and proprietors of the Baltimore Anoeri-
can, for libel, giving two hundred and fifty dol
lars damages for plaintiff. The plaintiff talks of
appealing, as he thinks the damages too small
whilst the defendants surely will appeal if he
does not.
The railroad train with mail from the North,

Accounts of bridges washed away and other
