FEMALE SwINDLERs IN PHILADELPHIA.-
Mrs. Elizabeth Haines and Miss Laura Haines,
aged respectively 80 and 80 years, were arrested
in Philadelphia on Monday, and held to bail in
81 600, on charges of swindling. They came to
that city in January last, engaged expensive
lodgings and made numerous purchases of
expensive dresses, laces, &c. They represented
that the younger lady would soon be married to
Dr. Julius DE Mayer, a very rich man, who
would settle all the debts contracted. Sus-
picion was finally aroused by their movements
and the parties were arrested as above stated.
Their baggage, which was seized. consisted OF
two trunks containing number of quart bottles
wrapped In paper, tin pans and cans, bed-tick
and pillow, horse blanket, and some old gar
ments. Also a number of letters, many of which
were of an interesting and amusing character.
They showed Miss Laura to be woman of bust
ness, negotiating in lands, and many gave evil
dence of the fact that she had obtained sums of
money from those with whom she had CORES
pended. One letter showed the rich De MAYER
to have been in prison, and released by one
Sand, who mortg aged his property to secure his
release. This individual had written letter to
DE Mayer, setting forth that he had treated him
unkindly in not relieving him OF the embarrass-
ments into which he had fallen by mortgaging
his property to serve him. He also expressed
displeasure at his sending Miss Laura Haines
and his wife, instead Of coming to see him him.
self in reference to the matter. There were
letters to Miss Laura, notifying her to give
security for board or leave the premises imme-
diately.

A correspondent calls our attention to the
attempt Of the Bowen ring to prevent any of
their followers from attending the Emery rati-
hcation meeting tomorrow night BY announc-
ing "Grand Mass Meetings" to take place for
all the wards of the city on that night This
Is all right. Let them keep every individual of
their meagre crowd of bread and butter men
away. The City Hall square viii be hardly big
enough to accommodate the Emery army, any
how. The bread and-butter men will never be
missed.
Another correspondent states that the Bowen
gang mean to try violent means to prevent
voters from attending the Emery meeting. Let
them try that. too. We can assure the ring
gentlemen that their chances of getting accom-
modations in the District Jail are frst-class II
they play any pranks of this sort. The Vigilance
Committee Of Reform Republicans is tolerably
large and wide awake, and viii not tolerate any
infringement upon their rights by the rufian
gang of City Hall strikers.

the Bowen ring that the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company are laboring for the election
of Mr.. Emery, but in order to put the story on
Its proper footing as alying electioneering card,
we will say that there is not only no truth In il,

proved himself to be.
Mr.. Emery viii as q matter of principle, and
in defence Of the rights Of the city, keep
watchful eye upon the operations Of the great

are safe in his hands. But Mr.. Bowen in his
s9uaeoles with that company has been actuated

necessary to state that his "brief," which con-
