IMPOSITION.
How an Old Soldier Was Beaten.

hoW an Ulo SololeF was beaten.
Samuel Clesry, an old soldier who had seen years
of service in the United States army, and received
an honorable discharge, arrived in this city yes
teTday afternoon via the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. The object of his visit was to settle up
his claims with the Government for bounty and
back pay, and make inquiry concerning eligibility
for pension. Being considerably worn down by
travel and toting his valise, which contained
some clothing and his papers, on reaching the
Capitol grounds he walked in and seated him
self one Of the iron settees for the purpose OF
resting. He had not been there long before Q
eolored man approached and represented himself
as q Watchman stationed at the park. After O
few inquiries, in which he secured the confidence
Of the stranger and object Of his visit, he repre-
sented to the soldier that he was one Of the few
men selected by The Government and authorized,
when they should discover such persons in the city
for business purposes, to conduct them TO Q decent
and respectable place where accommodations
would be provided Tor them at reasonable rates
The man accompanied his eolored guide, whom
he had no reason TO suspect, but who soon after
played him false. He was conducted to the Smith
soDiaR grounds, and in passing through the most
unfrequented part and where the foliage Is the
thickest, the cOlored man gave him the slip with
the soldiers VAlise in his hand. The veteran at
tempted pursuit, but caught his legs in the wire
put up to protect trespRss on the grass and was
thrown to the ground. When he arose, the dar-
key had disappeared. He was directed to the
Central guard house, where be made his com
plant, and expressed desire to recover the pa
pers, which are Of no yalEz- 10 49, 49, one else,
