The Washington Chronicle Of August
21st has this:
The Baltimore American celebrated its
centennial anniversary yesterday. The
Office was handsomely decorated with
faSs, the cost Of arms of the State, etc.
1t also prints an illustrated snpple-
ment, with Baltimore town in 1773, and
a picture Of its first office.
Friday. August 20. l773, the first mum.
Der Of the Maryland Jonrnal and Balti-
more Advertiser was issued. At that
date Baltimore had less than 900 houses
and less than 5000 population.
A complete history Of the American,
valuable as it is interesting, is given in
yesterday q issue, and, in additiod, q fac
simile Of its first number accompanies it,
To modern newspaper men this is very
interesting, and when the means of COM
munication at that time are considered,
it really contains good deal of fresh
newc. For instance, it has European
advices as late as June, II, I773; New
York news Of August II. and Philadel-
phia news of August II. 1t has nearly q
column advertisement from George Wash
ington, dated Mount Vernon. July Is,

Fashions FOR ApRIL.-It is yet too
early to speak with certainty of the
Spring fashions; but We have reason to
believe that open pelisess. composed of
summer silks. and edged with two or
three pipings of different and striking
color, will be much in request towards
the end of the month. They will be
worn over muslin robes, either embroid-
cred or trimmed with founces. There
is no donbt that embroidery will be ex
ceedingly fashionable both for muslin
robes and lingerie. Printed muslins are
expected to be very generally adopted for
morning dress. We understand that
gros de Naples, glacc and poux de sole,
are the materials most likely to be in
vogue for hats and bonnets, but those OF
satin will still remain fashionable during
the whole month. Organdy, sprlgged
colored casmere worsteds, was coming
into favor when the Court put on mourn
ing for the Emperor Of Austria; and we
believe it will be resumed as soon as the
mourning is over. The dresses COM
posed of it were draped on the bosom,
and the drap-ries bordered with lace
trlpple bouffrant sleeves, and ceinturt
of the color of the flower, with floating
ends. The new colors are expected tt
be different shades Of green, primrose
lilac, fawn. cherry and bright blue.

these must be brought together aud exhibited

department Of the Philadelphia Exhibition
must tell in language more eloquent than

passed.
All this is giant work, and it must not be

country has as much interest in the Centeu-
NAL Exhibition as the Quaker City. Every

A NEW JEAN VALJEAN CAsE.-A curl
Gus case was lately brought before one of the
French tribunals. Eighteen years ago a
young man named Eripe was condemned in
continuation to ten years penal seryitude
for forgery and embezzlement committed In
Paris. He had misappropriated some 1000
francs, but he voluntarily confessed his guilt
q few days afterwards, making restitution at
the same time of the sum which still re-
manned in his hands. The manager of the
office IL which he was employed, who enter
tanned u excellent opinion of him, was anx-
ious to hush the matter up, but the police in
sisted upon his prosecution. Eripe avoided
arrest and EN- listed in cavalry regiment un-
der the name OF Lemaitre, a former school
fellow. He ser Sed for three years and bore
the best of char seters. but being offered
clerkship in the Aisne, he deserted. The
real Lemaitre was arrested on TINS eharge,
but he had no difficulty III proving his inn0-
cence, and Erpe was again condemned in
continuation to ten years hard labor for
usurping a name which did not belong to
to him. He, in the meanwhile, had been
gaining the esteem of his employer, at whose
instance he contracted a marriage under the
name of Lemaitre, by which he was still
known. His wife died soon after their mar
riage. but her parents were so much attached
erty, and obtained for him more valuable
appointment IN mandatory at FisInes.
Here he made second marriage, which
also proved to be happy one, and he seemed
on the high road to fortune. One day, while
he was talking with the station master on the
platform, train arrived, the engine driver of
which happened to be the Lemaitre, who recog-
nized Erpe and denounced him to the police.
He was at once arrested, and it is needless to
say that the matter created immense excite
ment in the district. He was arraigned upon
the charge of forgery, but he did not attempt
to deny his identity, and he very wisely based
his defense on the ground that he had lived
honestly since the commission OF his first
iault. eighteen years ago, asserting what was
the literal truth, that he could not have dis
continued the use of the nane under which
ne had enlisted without betraying himself
He moreover begged the court to remember
that in two years time he would have been
able TO plead the statute of limitations, and
his case was strengthened by the presence OF
his second wife and her family, who entreated
the court to take a lenient view of his conduct.
A petition was signed by more than ], 200 in
habitants of Fimses, who bore testimony to
his excellent character, and the jury returned
verdict of acquittal, which was received
with loud and unchecked applause.
