which the Tweed ring made way with. a
suit for $500, 600 has been brought against
the Broadway bank for money paid out on

forged or were entirely unauthorized. The
Times claims that the long delay in work
ing up the case has been diligently used,
and that the attorney to whom the prose
cution has been committed, Mr.. John c.

For the Freeman.
Personal RecOIlectiOns.

Those who have lived in Mortified, or
vicinity. for the last thirty or forty years,
most likely know or have heard something
of Asher Graves. lie is man considera-
bly, pist the prime of life, and rather ex-
centric in his ways and manners. He is
not, however, by any means deficient in
=" mother w.t. On the contrary, he often
throws off, by way of pleasantly or repair
tee. things which, if coming down the
line of the ages-passed "by laughing
sire to son"--with one of the acknowledge
masters of wit and humor for its reputed
author. would be esteemed very good.
One or two illustrations will show we
are not claiming for Asher any more than
he merits. He, no doubt. had read OF
heard of what Horace Greeley "knew
about farming" about raising turnips and
the like. At4the last Presidential election,
after Greeley was fairly on the track,
bound to run for the high goal Asher took,
or pretended to take, ground against his
election, though very likely II. G."
received his vote, nevertheless, I'll
tell YOU" said Asher, blufingly. "why l
think faint best TO elect Greeley presi-
dent. You know, one time and another,
there has been Il good deal of money laid
out fixing up the ground round the Cap
itol, Presidents house, &c. Now you elect
Greeley president, and the old chap will
go right off and plow the whole thing up
and SOW it all to rita bagas.''
On another occasion, he answered some
men who were rather bantering him. in
"A way which plainly showed that he was
competent to take care of number one, in
any game of bluff or banter. 1t was
when Conductor Root was on the Vermont
Central. Root was at certain station, in
company with one Bush, who, l think,
was also a railroad man, and Asher was
also present and somewhat bantering them
for free ride.
Tell you what" said one of them, & if
you will give us description of heaven,
according to your idea of it, you may ride
and welcome" WE'LL" s,ys Asher,
I'm tell you just about what kind of a
place heaven is, 'cordng TO my notion.
We will not pretend to give his description
in full, only its conclusion, which WIS that
its surface was unlulating, bat smooth,
with not B lsh or Root! 1t is superb iou5
to I'D that Asher's ride, on that occasion,
was free. d. T.. A.

MARSHAL BAzAINE's ESCAPE.-Blzaine
has escaped from Imprisonment on the
Island Of Ssinte Marguerite, and the par
ticulars are us follows The apartments
occupied by Marshal B ,zaine opened upon
II terrace, Which was built upon Il lofty and
precipitous cliff overllanging the sea. A
sentry was posted upon the terrace, with
orders to watch the prisoners every move
ment. Durir g Sunday evening the 9,h,
The Marshal walked upon the terrace with
Col. Villettc. his aid-de-camp. At ten
O'Clock he retired as usual, apparently to
sleep, bat before day break he had effected
h S escape. He must have crossed the
terrace in the dead of night. and, GLIDING
the sentinel gained the edge of the preci-
pice. Thence, by means of II kno;ted rope,
lie descended TO the sea. He evidently
slipped during the descent, and tore his
hands, MS the rope WIS found stained with
blood in several places. Under the cliff in
IL hired boat were Bazaine's wife and cousin
They received him as he reached the water,
and Nine. La Marechale, taking the oars
herself. rowed directly to IL strange steamer
which had been lying off the island since
the previous evening. They reached the
vessel in safety, were taken on board, and
the steamer then put to sea. 1t is thought
that they have landed at Genoa, as the
steamer proceeded in that direction.
On the Goth of December, 1873, Presi-
dent MacMahon notified Bazaine that he
should serve out his term of twenty years
imprisonment, or seclusion," in the is
land of Sainte Marguerite. This island IS
situated on the Mediterranean coast of
France, opposite Cannes, about two and a
half miles from the shore. 1t lies close on
the Italian frontier. 1t is small in extent,

Four persons were killed and nineteen
others wounded by the accident on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, near Trenton, on
Saturday night As the wrecked train
contained five hundred people, it was not
the fault of the man who misplaced the
switch if the number of dead and wounded
did not reach hundred. Perhaps it i
not possible to find an absolute preventive
of such disasters; but the uncondi ional

still backward. Maine averages 80 per

\ Chicago court has decided that the
Rev. Chas. E. Cheney was never legally
deposed from the ministry of the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church. As DIR. Cheney is
now connected with another religious de-
nomination, having been elevated to a
Bishopric in the Reformed Episcopal
Church, this decision cannot affect him,
personally, in any considerable degree.
1t may be important, however, because it
passes upon some legal points of interest
to all churches, and rarely, if ever, before
reviewed by civil tribunals in this country
as well Is because it illustrates somewhat
that stretch of authority and rigidity of
discipline which, in the Judgment of some,
made the schism in the Church possible.
