A Rascally Proceeding.

The Seattle aud Victoria papers have
been giving considerable notoriety to a
man calling himself Charles II. Ream, who
made his appearance at Seattle about six
weeks ago, and hung out his sign as a
physician, claiming to be graduate of a
prominent medical college in Germany.
He dressed well. and soon ingra;ated Kim,
self into the good graces Of a young lady
Of that place, Of unblenishcd character,
and after an acquaintance Of about two
weeks was married to her. Representing
himself as rich, but in need of funds I'M
til he should receive an expected remit
lance from his banker, he obtained loans
from several parties, aud in few days af.
ter his marriage left with his bride for
Victoria. Here he tried to borrow more
money from several Germans, but with
poor success, and in few days his true
character became known. 1t is reported
that the scoundrcl has family in Black
Foot City, Montana, and has been guilty
Of felonious conduct in this Territory. Soon
as former his reputation became known he
left his wife, and it was thought he had
embarked for some distant port to escape
the consequence Of his crimes. This be-
lief, however, was without foundation, for
by the Polt9fs!y wl,ick arrived yesterday
VIC are placed in possession of the hteIi.
.gencti OF the 18th, from which we learn
that Ream suddenly reappearcd at the
scene Of his devastations. 1t appears he
slowed himself aboard the Isabel at Vic.
toria, aud upon the arrival Of the Aida
at Seattle, in the night, he went ashore,
and sought to obtain access TO his victim $
bed room by window, but without sue
cess: lie left a letter on the window sill in
which he besought the girl to fly With him,
but if she should refuse to accede to
his proposal, he would take her any
how. The letter stated that he in.
tended to come to Olympia to "scc Tie
Governor" and that he would soon return.
1t appears that he did come aboard the Pol.
itcfhy at Stcilaco m, begged his passage
to this place, and is now in town. What
his next move we'll be, it is impossible to

society that such pests to morality should
be allowed to contamnante it with there
loathsome presence.
