four councilmen elected each year.

sides at Tenth and Perry streets, and Is re-
garded as one Of the first Of our self-mad1ee

old Manchester flour Dunlop & McCance's s)
mills; has before served in the Council, and,
after repeated deelinations, was elected SIM

A Female Impostor.

Having been victimized by one OF these
persons, wish to guard others against q
similar affliction. Some time since. an in
telligent woman about sixty years OF age,
neatly dressed and OF fine appearance,
called on me for aid to go North to see a
sick daughter. She gave her name as Laura
A. Turner, Of louisville, Kentucky. or
course she was Baptist-a member OF DR..
Burrows's church. She claimed to be a
daughter OF the late Rev. j., b: Taylor,
and sister OF the DR.. Taylor now in Rome.
She was well versed in Baptist history,
especially relating to the Taylor family:
Havingmet DR.. Taylor, ] thought | could
vouch for striking family resemblance OF
which she boasted. DR.. Burrows says she
is an s.impostor, of whom I have heard at
least dozen times, playing the same game
of fraud. DR.. Taylor had no such daughter,
and there is not, and never has been, any
such member of my church; nor can find
any one here who ever heard OF her, .... g..

LONDON, June 21.-Mr. Pierrepont's
views on etiquette met an unexpected check
on Monday night. General Grant dined ON
that evening with the Prince of Wales at
Marlborough House. in company with
number OF distinguished personages. am
grieved to have to say-or whether | am
grieved or not, the fact is--that the artificial
precedence heretofore conceded to the eX-
President was not conceded on this occa-
sion. General Grant went out to dinner
among the last. Nearly every person OF
rank who was present, went before him !;
Mr.. -Pierrepont himself, am told, had to
march in front OF his hero. But I hope the
friendly relations between the two coun-
tries may not be imperilled by this unlucky

POLICE a ARRE ST > lESiERDAl. -DetIio
Gray (colored) was arrested yesterday by
Sergeant Thomas, charged with breaking
into the house Of George S. Hendrick (who
lives about two and half miles from the
city on the Broad-street road) and stealing
S15 in money. Mrs. Hendrick came into
tbe CITY on the Fourth accompanied by the
girl. The girl claimed to be sick, and left
Mrs. Hendrck, and it Is supposed she re-
turned home and committed the robbery.
The door of the house was broken open,
and the thief, after entering, also broke
ooep the wardrobe where the money was
kept. The circumstantiai evidence against
the accused is quite strong.
Henry Garnett (colored) was arrested yes
terday by Policeman Epps on an attachment
issued by the Police Justice on the 25th Of
February, 1875. Garnett was charged with
fighting John Wbinvelton, and was recog-
nized to appear at court. AS soon as re-
leased by the magistrate Garnett left the
city and went to Washington, and never re-
turned until yesterday. He came up to Mr.
Epps to shake hands, and the officer
promptly took him into custody.
J, E. Turner has been summoned to ap-
pear before the Police-Justice to- answer
for defacing trees in Monroe Park. -; :.
"A few days ago q young man was fined
$40 for similar offence.

the city, and has heretofore borne a good

the case will turn out far differently from
what is charged. 1t would be difficult to
believe him guilty of such an offence. s,

TIE PROPOSED VISIT OF: TIE PRESIDENT
TO THE WHITE SULPHGR SPRINGs.-Gosr
error Henry II. Mathews. OF West, pir-
giuia, arrived in the city WEDNESDAY
evening from Washington. Assuming tnat
the Governor would know all: about tne
proposed visit OF President Hayes TO the l'e
white Sulphur he was called upon by q
Dispatch reporter. The Governor said
he did not remain long enough III WASH
ington to call. ll.5upon the President. HIS
time was limited, and was altogether
taken up with official and private business.
AS to the President going to the Wmte, ne
said that he had every reason to believe tnat
Mr.. Hayes would visit the Springs some
time during this month or August, as MS
engagements or convenience allowed. rms
he seemed to beassured of frcm intimations
given him by 4he PresiG lent. himself during
aprerious visit to Washington some hve
or six weeks ago. When asked about the
much bruited Democratic conference to
take place iat the White at some time after
the 10th instant, Governor Mathews said
there would probably fbe quite large num-
her Of Democratic Con ngressmen there dur
ling the season. This was all be kneY. sHe
thought there would be quite gathering oi
politicians there this season. The Goyernol
left for Charleston by the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad last evening.

RECKLESS DESTRUCTION OF FORESTS
The London Spectator OF June. 10th says :
"The evidence that the great floods which
have from time to time during the last half
century been so destructive in Switzerland
and in many districts of France and Italy
have been mainly caused by the telling OF
the forests on the high grounds appears to
be overwhelming. In the Department
Of the Loire especially it was uni
Yersally remark ed that the wooded grounds
suffered no change, while in the de-
nuded districts the whole soil Of cleared and
cultivated fields was swept away and the
rocks laid bare. The same was seen in the
Upper Rhine in 1893. The clearings in the
province OF the Ardeche have produced the
most melancholy results, within the last
thirty. years, one thirdyot its area having
become barren; and new torrents had, in
land, an evilwhich hasobeeD going g on
the crests OF the Vosges,., has done
infinite harm in AIsace. Many places
in Provence, rich and Inhabited half
century ago, have become deserts. Thou
sands OF torrents have been formed within
the last dozen wears on the southern flank
OF the Piedmontese Alps and in Dauphiny,
and grassy slopes have been converted into
stony chasms by the. cutting OF the woods
above. In the Department OF the1rLower
Alps, between 1872 and 1852, 8l, 900 .aeTes
went out Of cultivation from this cause.
In Italy the demand for Italian iron
during the wars Of; Napoleon l., the trade
with England beng cut :tof, necessitated
vast cuttings Of wood for fuel, and the ef.
| fects are felt to this. day, especially IN the
valley OF the Po.s In fact, there Is scarcely
country on the continent OF Europe in
which the reckless destruction OF forest has
not been admitted, both in popular beiiei
and BY the verdict OF science, to have been
the cause of misery OF the amount OF which
