Outrageous Assault.

There was considerable excitement on Cary
Lane, eff Mountfort street. last night, over a
disgraceful affair which happened there. One
Jim Flynn who lives with his mother, enticed
young girl named Kate Crowley into his
house and after talking with her a short time
invited her to go into the cellar with him, MAX
ing some excuse for the request. She refused,
and he pushed her down the stairs, where he
kept her for several hours, until discovered
The girl was missed from her homo, and her
brothers began searching for her. They saw
her go to Hymns house, which was near by,
and they called there to enquire for her, but
was told by Mrs. Flynn that she had gone out
with Jim. This frightened the young men
still more as Flynn is known 10 be hard char
acter, and they secured the assistance of the
neighbors and began searching for their sister
about town. Officers Llwton and Pennell
were notified of the girls absence and they at
once began tho search. Flynn's house was
first visited, and on going into the cellar he
was found with the girl. Mr.. Crowley, the
father of the girl, was with the officers when
she was found, and at the sight of Flynn his
anger knew no bounds. Before the officers

savage manner and but for the Off GERS pres
ence the neighbors would have given him a
still warmer reception.
Flynn was taken to the station and locked
up. The girl, who is little weak mentally,
was taken to the lodging room, where she spent
the night. She alleges that Flynn committed
an indecent assault upon her. She is about
fifteen years of age and is quite fine looking
girl.
Flynn is hard character, having just served
out years sentence in the Jail workshop for
breaking and entering the store Of Woodman,
True & Co. He has been in Jail several times
before for other offences He is large,

crime.
He will be arraigned in the Municipal Court
this morning and will no doubt be sent back to
his old quarters with Sheriff Pencil to await

Confederate Economy.

For some time our business men have been
favored with a fast Western mail, by which
letters from New York, Chicago and other
large cities in the West reached here at II 20
p. m. 1t was great convenience and no ar
rangemeut of mails has ever afforded so rare
facilities. The National, or rather Confederate
House of Representatives, through the chair
man of its appropriation committee, looked
upon the fast mail trains as extravagancies
which must be Topped off. 1t was done. The
whole system of fast mails has stopped and
business men are compelled to use the tele-
graph or wait four days for mails which have
come In less than two. Last evening the mails
which have for a time arrived here at 100 D.
M, did not come till $40. Business men were
at home, letters could not be delivered or
answered; so for all practical purposes the
mail had just as we'll be delayed until six
o'clock this morning. Had the fast mail con =
tinued, scores of important letters would have
been received at that time and answered by the
return or midnight mail Now, on account of
MI. Randalrs economy. replies to important
Western letters will be delayed here from ten
to eighteen hours, and they will be days get
ting to their destination where it heretofore
took half days for mails to reach the West.
This comes from that pinching economy
which cannot afford the business of the coun-
try fast mails at an expense of few score
thousand dollars, while money by the hundred
thousand is voted to render streams navigable
which have neither population on their banks,
commerce on their waters, nor even water be-
tween their banks.
This is the first practical result of Confeder-
ate economy.

have been tried together before two juIes The first
jury gave yerdicts for both plaintiffs, which the pre-
siding justice set aside excessive. The second jury
doubled up, giving Emily verdict for $56714, and
Gustavus. her husband, S2,27s 12 They were actions
for ejecting plaintiffs from their at Salem in
October 1874 the ground that they refused to pay
their fare, when in fact they had tickets which en-
titled them to ride to Portland. True, on their face
the tickets read from Bangor to Boston and had been
punched from Bangor to Portland, and by their
terms were good only from Portland to Boston, and
not for ride, but the plaintiffs say that the
agents of the road assured them the tickets were
good for reverse ride, the strength of which as
surance they commenced their journey.
N. Webb, for defendants, claimed matter of
fact no such statements were made and that the
conductors without FAULT and at all events tie
damages were excessive.
c. E. Clifford, for plaintiffs, claimed that two jul
ries had found the facts in favor of the clients and
they were the tribunal to assess the damages.
