Interesting About the Fraudulent

The following letter appears in the Frank.
i"rt Commonwealth. 1t is addressed to til,
editor:
WASHINGTON, Pa, February 90, 1872.
Dear Sir,-Having noticed Il dispatch from
your city to the New York Herald in rela.
lion to the efforts of s. adj Lee, in your
vicinity, l have thought sketch Of his earl,
history might be interesting to some Of your
'ead",s. and give some light on disputed
questions.
s.Aullns Lee was son Of Richard Henry
Lee, Esq, who was nephew of Richard
Henry Lee, one Of the signers Of the Decla-
ration of Independence. About the ycaI
1885 Mr.. Lee, the father of Samuel, was
elected to professorship in Washington
,PennsylvaniW College, and moved to thi>
place from Eastern Virginia at that time.
This situation he held about twenty years.
md was greatly beloved by all that knew
him, and especially by the students of the
college. He was fine scholar and Chris
tan gentleman.
After his retirement from the college he
urncd his attention to theology, and wa.
.lccted pastor of the Protestant Episcopal
church Of this place, which position he hello
until his death in 1860. Samuel was small
BOY when they came to this place, and as
ne grew up his propensity for stealing mani
tested itself; lie was detected in a num-
Der Of cases, but these were generally
compromised through respect for his Pr
rents. When he was about seventeen years
Of age he commenced to enlarge his opera
ions by robbing the law Office Of Hon. L. 81.
L. lIckennan Of about 5000, for which offence
he was tried, convicted, and sentenced t.
The Western penitentiary ut Allegheny, Pa.
The night previous to being taken to the
pcnitcntiary he made ali attempt to escape
from jail, and partially succeeded by cutting
through the wall. After getting into Tic
yard he procured 4 plank that reached nearly
to the top Of the wall on which to ascend.
and while in the act of climbing tho plank tho
tailor happened TO go into the yard, and seeing
Samuel at the top, unkindly knocked the plank
from under him, letting him down very sud-
denly. Here is where he received the injury
that finally cost him 4 lee, instead Of llay!n"
it shot off while on board the Mcrrimac The
injury sustained at this time continued to
crow worse, and after year or two hi,
health seemed to be falling, on account OF
which pardon was procured for Him. lie rc-
turned to this place and lived with his pa
rents for several years in exile, and finally dis
appeared from here, Since which we have not
heard of him until VIC saw this notice in thc
Herald.
AS tic is man Of good education and adj
dress, and well calculated TO deceive where
his trlic Character Is unknown, il might serve
ii good purpose TO advertise him well, So
others nlay not be deceived by him.
Yours truly, }. D.

open her stable, when Sydney Dunn took his
pistol and went out to see about it, and il
getting in few steps of the stable, he was

MUSICAL INsTITUTE.-The concert to
be given by the Musical Institute to-
morrow evening bids fair to be the event
of the season. There was q grand rush
for tickets yesterday, and over three
hundred seats were engaged and about
seventy cards OF membership the as
ISOLATION were sold. The people of
Wheeling may we'll congratulate them
selves upon the formation of go skillful
and successful a musical association
among their own citizens. 1t has done
much to improve the public taste and
promote musical culture, and is in TACT
one of the institutions OF which
Wheeling has good reason to be proud.
The grand concert tomorrow night ia
TO be followed by others at stated inter-
walls during the winter, and we are sure
that all will receive that very liberal
patronage which their merits go well
deserve. Having large chorus which
will be brought into frequent requisi'
ton, there is no seat in Washington
Hall from which the music may not be
advantageously heard, and we expect to
hear this evening that every seat has
been sold. Apply at the music store
this morning.

THE New APPoRTIoNMENT.-As will
be seen by our Council report, the Gen.
sus takers have finished their work and
reported to Council. On the basis OF
these reports Council has ordered the
Committee on Ordinances to report an
ordinance giving to the First ward three
members of the Second Branch OF Coun.
Gil; Second ward, three; Third ward,
three; Fourth ward, three; Fifth ward,
three; Sixth ward, four; Seventh ward,
two, and Eighth ward, four. Thus it will
be seen that the next Second Branch OF
Conncil will be composed OF twenty-five
members instead OF twenty.seven, as at
present. In the new apportionment the
First ward loses a member; the Sec
ond gains one; the Third loses one
the Fourth two and and the Fifth one
the Sixth and Seventh gain one each
The representation from the Eighth is
unchanged. The representation is made
on q basis OF one member for each 1000
votes or fraction over 500, and the frac.
tons SO count that the 24,4l5 population
elect twenty-five members.

CoLLEGE MUsIcALE.-The young Ia.
dies Of the Female College gave one Of
their delightful and enjoyable musicals
last night, at the College, that was at
tended by about all the people who
could be crowded into the building,
The programme was quite long and
most excellent. Among the most no
ticeable were the Overture to William
Tell" by Misses Greer, Taylor, Duffield
and Roemer the essay, "Our Alphabet"
by Miss Annie Sweeney; Piano solo, by
Miss Wheat, and the "Tete Tete gal.
lop." by Misses Annie Clarkson, Nc
Lure and Wise. Our space is too brief
this morning for US to do more than
make q mere mention Of the most
agreeable evenings entertainment, yet
we must not neglect to speak Of the de-
cid.dly splendid manner in which the
cborusss were rendered. They were
superb.

DIVORCE. Those persons who have
not enjoyed the great society sensation,

Opera House by the Fifth Avenue Com
pany, have missed a dramatic feast sell
dom offered. 1t is placed upon the
stage in an elaborate manner and acted
superbly, the members of the New
York Company being as easy in their
characters as though they were dis
cussing an actual occurrence at their
own fresides. This play mirrors the
capricious and dangerous teachings OF
over-zealous mothers-in-law with such
fidelity that the audience for the time
being is lost to the outside world, and
is not released from the excitement oil
the scenes presented until the curtain
tails upon the last act. Mr.. Boniiace,
as the fancied injured husband, cer-
tainly presents vivid Interpretation OF
the authors ideas, as also does Miss
Georgia Langley, the much abused
but constant wife. Mrs. Grafton, as
the over. careful mother, is capital in
the character assigned her, and it is
doubtful if she has superior in her
especial line of characters. Baltimore
