The Duke of Manchester, we hear, will not

ever, nothing definite has been done"

pocket-book yesterday by Theodore HOLES,
middle-aged man, who lives on De Kalb

told her such pitiful tales Of his poverty
and the sutferings of his family,

however, an officer arrived, and the object
of her benevolence was, against her wishes,
carried off to the Station-house, where he
was locked up on the charge of highway
