The Man with the Iron MASK.
PORTLAND

The Man with the Iron Mask.
If the heretofore impenetrabe secret of the
identity of this romantic individual is really
divulged now, as is asserted, one of the two
great personal mysteries of the last century
only remains to be elucidated-the authorship
of the Junius Letters:
M. Marius Topin, an accomplished French
writer, has lately published ian interesting
work, in which he claims to have discovered,
after the most pains-taking research, original
documents, relating to the puzzlling prisoner,
which prove him to have been person whom
very few of us probably ever heard of before,
or are likely to hear of again, one Count Mat
thioly, minister of Charles w., Duke of Man.
tua.
1t seems that this man had involved him
self in intrigues with Louis XIV. in regard to
the betrayal of place called, ,Casal lat that time
reckoned one of the keys of Italy, and when
all seemed favorably arranged suddenly broke
of, or seemed inclined to place obstacles in
the way of the desired object.
The king was not man to brook this sort
OF conduct. Having contrived secretly to Sc
cure Matthioly's person, he desired that he

Gus expedient was adopted which has given
rise to more than century's conjectures.
NJ. Topin has found hitherto unpublished
despatch of Louis, which entirely agrees
chronologicaliy with the records regarding the
mysterious prisoner, containing the words,
"None must know what has become of this
man."
The author seems to have traced out the
history step by step, with the diligence Of an
English lawyer getting up dormant peerage
claims. He has discovered that the prisoner
arrived in Paris from the Isles of st. Marga-
ret with NJ. st. Mara, the newly appointed
governor Of the Bastile, on the 18th of Sep
tember, 179S; that they stopped at NJ, St.
Mares house, between Joigny and Villeneuve,
where the story as to the prisoner, guarded
with such extraordinary care still fingers, and
that about three years afterwards prisoner,
whom he has traced out to be this Bergman,
was buried in the Church of st. Paul, near
the CASTLE, under circumstances of the ut
most privacy-the name of "Marchialy" being
inscribed in the death register.

The will of Mrs. Rebecca Gumber, which
was admitted to probate in Philadelphia, on
Monday, bequeaths $21 500 to churches and
benevolent societies in that city and vicinity.
Petitions are circulating in Indiana for sig
natures, praying Congress to refuse to admit
any Southern State or Western Territory, un-
less its Constitution prohibits the sale of intox-
icating liquors.
The brilliant correspondent of Boston pa
per in Lowell, telegraphed on Monday noon:

with no other candidate against him, and will
be elected by a large majority"
An Assistant Assessor in New Jersey says
that he feels so sheepish when called upon TO
tax lady dollar for her gold watch, that he
often pays the amount himself He says that
while it is nominally tax upon an article of
luxury, it really is levy upon what is to many
teachers, workingwomen, &C., an indispensa-
BILE necessity.
Mr.. Clark Holt, Treasurer of the Tolland
County, Conn, } Mutual Insurance Company,
whose financial irregularities" in his official
and private capacity were reported to amount
to nearly quarter of q million dollars, has re-
turned to his home, his friends, the Hartford
Courant says, having compromised with the
Company. The Courant adds, that the deficit
in the Company's assets was about $40, ,O0O the
other losses through him being trust funds
placed in his hands, for which he can only be
charged with breach Of trust, which is no
criminal offence.

was the fraudulent failure of this bank firm
which caused such run upon Overend's

soon be forgotten in commercial circles. The
prosecution OF the firm has been hitherto
carried on at the private expense of one man,
DR.. Thorn, and it has not a little suffered in
consequence. DR.. Thorn is not rich, and his
appeal for funds was very little responded to.
