Another Victim of Strong Drink.

On the Sth of last month. Michael
Cowman. IA resident of this city for the
last nine wears. left on the steamer
United States for the other side of the
lake. with the intention of procuring
work. From that time until early this
week. his wife had heard nothing of
him. On Monday last, Il neighhor hap
pening to hand her Il copy ot the Free
Press, she observed under the head of
Northern New York News. an item
relating to the finding on the 23d of
October, the body of an unknown man
in the woods near Woods Falls, on the
Ogdensburg railroad. From the de
scription of the body, as well as that of
the clothes thereon, Mrs. Cowman had
strong reason to believe it was that of
her husband. Through Il friend she at
once communicated with the McsSrS.
Wood Bros, of Woods Falls. and re-
reiyed in answer such information aS
satisfied her that her fears were hut too
true. 4 portion of the clothes worn by
Cnwman when he left home, and sent
here by the MessrS. Wood, were immc-
d;,telv identified by the stricken wife.
The body was taken i'll charge by the
coroner of Clinton county, and Inferred

The Original Rothschild.

William IX, the Landgrave of lle>>r
las clector he subsequently adopted the
title of William l.,D chose RothSrhlld
as his banker. and laid the basis of the
latter's wealth. William was IL dcp"s-
itor worth having. albeit his riches had
not come to him, or rather to his father.
in the most honorable way. 1t WAS his
father. the Landgrave Frederic H., who
furnished George Ill. with seventeen
thousand Hessians to fight against our
colonial ancestors in consideration OF
S20. 1000. 900. This vast sum, backed by
as much more, Frederic left To his
successor. who put it all into the hands
of the cunning knight of the Red Shield.
Frankfort was amazed at this step.
The famous bankers could not under
stand why William should pass them
by, and repose his entire trust III Il
banker mparatively unknown.
The cause was this. Baron Estortf,
while adiutant- general to Duke FeIdi-
nand in the Seven Years War, became
very intimate with Frederic and Viii
liam. He also learned much OF the
shrewdness, sagacity, and trustw"rthi-
ness of Rothschild when the latter WAS
in the employ of fOppcnheim, the baron :
banker, and strongly recommended
Mayer to the landgrave as an eminently
proper person to leave money with. IL
