ALLEGED CASE OF SwINpLINa-tJohnB Brooks
cOlOred, was arrested on Tuesday upon tn
charge of defrauding Isaas Chapman and A
Kenny out of effects valued at $50. The state

they lived In Washington, and had been induce
to come to this city about two months ago BY
Brooks, who promised to secure situations for
them. They were induced to drink until deeply
intoxicated, and having secured positions foI
them as deck hands on board vessel, (receivine
the usual fee,) the men, when they awoke from
their stupOr, found themselves far on their
voyage. After cruising for about two months
they returned to this city, and caused the arrest
Of Brooks, rs stated above. The accused wa
arraigned before Justice Jarden, but before the
prosecution had begun he offered to cOmpromis
by paying the amount of which they claimed h.
had defrauded them. This they accepted and
withdrew the charge. Brooks then proceeded
to the Office of Justice Sachs, on Fells Point
and obtained warrant for the arrest Of the two
colored men on a charge of perjury, in having
swern falsely in the charge made against him.
They were both taken before the last named
magistrate, and committed to Jail for the &C ton

THE RUMORS IN REGARD TO COL
LECTOR BOSWELL,
They are Groundless.

This morning rumor gained considerable
circulation on the streets and in business places
that Mr.. F. A. Boswell, the City Collector, had
absconded with a large amount of the Corpora
ton funds collected for taxes. One report fixed
the sum as high as S1SO, ,0OO.
On inquiry of Mayor Bowen and others at the
City Hall, We find there is no ground whatever
for these reports. We find further, on examina-
ton Of the books, that the accounts are straight
in his office, and that the amounts collected
have been deposited in the legal depository for
the COrperation-the First National Bank-the
bank account showing that from the LIST Of No
vember to the 4th instant S666 ,018.34 have been
deposited.
The rumor probably had its origin in the fact
that the bank day or two since refused to cash
Corporation check when the account had been
overdrawn, and before Mr.. Chase, the Deputy
Collector, had made his deposits for that day.
when the check was hOnored. Mr.. Boswell left
the city few days before Christmas for New
Bedford, Mass, to spend the holidays, and is
expected home in day or two.
Some fuel seems to have been added to the
flame of these reports by the fact being ascer-
tanned that the City Collector is required to
give bonds only to the amount of $50, 900, while
tho collections in single day have sometimes
reached as high as $50, 900. 1t will be a conso-
latiOn, however, for the nervous ones to know
that however inadequate the amount of bond
may be, our city collectors thus far have been
too honest to take advantage of the fact.
As above stated, there seems TO be not the
slightest grounds for these rumors prejudicial to
