The New York Mystery.

The Police of New York have succeed ed in unrayeling the mystery attendant upon the discovery of the body of a beautiful young woman in Q trunk at the Hudson River Railroad Depot, and the unmistakable evidence that the horrible crime of abortion had produced death. The driver of the truck which took the body to the depot, noting the accounts in the papers, at once went to an officer and told the following story: He said that as he was waiting at his usual stand, young woman accosted him and said to the Hudson River Railroad Depot. He had asked her for the service $1.50, but upon her demurring, he had con- sented to carry the trunk for $1. The woman said she was going to Chicago that afternoon, and she would he at the depot, to receive the trunk which he would find at No. 697 Second-ave, in the basement. She then left him. He immediately went to the house men | toned and knocked at the basement. It was opened by stout fleshy man, apparently foreigner, who appeared to understand his mission. The truckman detailed the particulars which have al- ready been given, and with the officer went to the house from which the trunk was taken, and it was discovered to be the residence of Jacob Rosenzweig, a pretended doctor, known to have com mitted the crime of abortion, who was found at home, but who on the approach of the officer attempted to escape. The officer was too quick, however, for his bur]y adversary, and seized him securely before he had got into the street. A orowd of loafers seemed to detect in an instant the fact that Rosenzweig had been arrested for murder. The Doctors profession was so notorious that his connection with the trunk murder was immediately surmised, and the crowd gathered around crying "Lynch him lynch him." Rosenzweig upon arriving at the station-house denied all know ledge of trunk having been taken from his house on the previous Saturday, and I on being confronted with the truckman I denied ever having seen him.
 The body has been identified as that of Alice Bowlsby, of Paterson, N. J She was first recognized by doctor who was well acquainted with her, and hi testimony was verified by dentist who had filled her teeth, and knew his. owl work. A handkerchief was subsequently found in Rosenzweig' s house bearing he name, thus making the Identification positive

 The moonlight lays it's bands of silver across the looseness of our hair, and upon our temples, burdened with fever throbs of fancy overwrought, the fingers of the wind are pressing, as the mothers lips, through night so long ago. | The wing of sleep covers the city, as the wings of bird her brood but the lights of heaven shine thr ugh, illumin- ing cathedral spire and cloister- wall the high halls of. the rich and the low roofs of the poor; and, over all, is the banner of Gods love His protecting care, and the heaven of His holiness.

THE MONEY IN THE GOLDEN RULE A short time after the wreck of the steamship Golden Rule, the safe be- longing to the United States Treasury was found and forwarded to Washington, where it was examined by the Depart ment machinest, who reported that 1t did not bear marks or evidence of having been forced open by the use of instru- ments but would have been, and probably was, broken open by being violently thrown from side to side of the hold of the vessel, and among the rocks after the vessel broke up. No part of the money contained in the s1fe was ever recovered, and notwithstanding the -unremitting efforts of the department, through detectives and otherwise, for more than three years, nothing has been discovered casting suspicion on the officers or crew of the vessel, nor on those employed on the wrecking vessel. It is now over six years since the Golden Rule was wrecked the notes contained in the safe are past due three or more years, and DO trace has been found of their existence. They amounted to over $1, ,OOO, GOO. -.
