The EccLEs CAsE.--The alleged de-
falcation of Mr.. F. H. Eccles, formerly OF
this city, and the loss of two of the
Wheeling banks thereby, has created
considerable interest, if not excitement
in this community. The banks that have
sustained the loss are the Ohio Valley for
$4,000, and the Commercial for
$4,000. From all we can learn
there is some probability of the above
institutions saving all their investments.
The New York Herald OF Saturday, in
reference to the matter, says:
"The alleged disappearance of the
broker Eccles was yesterday topic OF
gossip in Wall street. During the day
the following dispatch was received by
Mr.. John j. Herman, of Wall street,
from the reputed fugitive:

10th and llth. The following is from
the National Republican of Washing

Something really new has at last
found existence, and we are delighted to
thus chronicle. Last night Zera, sur
named the man with the spirit hand,
manifested his remarkable skill as con-
jurer, at the Opera House, before an
audience composed of the creme de la
creme of Washington, President Grant
and wife, Senator Jones, Sir Edward
Thornton and lady and Count de Cham
brun occupying box. The feats pre-
sented were certainly very extraordinary,
accomplished with more grace and ease
than it has ever been our fortune to
witness"

THE COMING CARNIvAL-Feast of
Fn.-The excitement attendant upon
the celebration OF Mardi Gras has in
creased SO much that we feel constrained
to make notice of it. We are assured
the benefit to the city will be great, and
should net be under estimated by our CIT
liens and merchants. The idea of Mardi
Gras in itself is sufficient reason for every
one to participate in the festivities of the
day, as the old adage says, "laugh and
grow fat" The tolls of life are heavy
enough to bear on days that are not hol-
idays, and little relaxation from busi-
ness pursuits, once in while, does no
one any harm, ana for this reason do We
advocate the celebration Of the day in
right royal style.
Another large meeting of :he
society was held Saturday night
over two hundred members being
present. Arrangements have nearly
been completed for the celebra-
ton of the day. 1t is estimated there
will be four or five hundred persons in
| thee procession on horse back. The pa
rade will take place in the afternoon.

Case Of the Forser winslow.


LONDON, February ls.-Mrs. Winslow'
wife of the Boston forger, has arrived
and is at the Charing Cross Hotel, but
will leave there for other lodgings soon.
She. her son and sister, who accompany
her, have only about one hundred dollars,
and seem to be in great trouble. Colonel
Cheesebro is endeayoring to induce them
TO return to America, but the matter Is
difficult to manage as the American legs-
ton has no funds applicable to such pur-
pose. Winslow besrsup very well, rs ne
written to the legation, saying be THINKS
it would be of interest to all interested
in his case that he be in Boston as soon
as possible, and offering, as an American
officer will take charge OF him,
that he will soon be here, and
as himself and family are anxious
to return, and that if the legation Will
withdraw the extradition proceedings ne
will return with the officer, Of his own
accord, TO the nited States to stand
trial. The proposition cannot be acted
upon, as the law requires certain rou
tine. The United States Consul at Rot
terdam has recovered from Mrs. WINS
low S5,000-Sl. 900 cash and S4,Ooo IN
United States bonds. Mrs. Winslow
saws she does not know how her hus
band obtained this money, and .supposes
1t is hers. Col. Cheesebro says she seems
to be honest III her representations, and
does not appear to know anything
about the swindling operations. Mr..
Winslow comes up for examination
Wednesday next The proceedings will
be merely formal and will occupy only a
few minutes. Though the ladies are
much distressed, neither they or the
prisoner appear fully to realize the ac-
iual position of matters. Winslow Is
comparatively cheerful and very talks-
tive. He seems to think ne will go back
to Boston, have a grand trial, figure ex.
tensively in newspapers and finally be
discharged
