The Manhattan Bank, in New York, was
robbed of over three millions in bonds
some time since. No clue has been disoov-
cred to the robbery, and the securities may
never be recovered; and yet the robbers
actually attempted to open negotiations
with tile bank through four respectable at
torneys of New York City, for tho return
Of the bonds, on condition that the bank
would paw them large reward. Theprop'
osition was not accepted because of the
probable reissue of Government bonds in
pIace of those stolen. Aud yet it must be
set down as one of the curiosities of New
York criminal life that the undetected rob
bers of q bank can open direct communi>
cation with the victims of their robbery,
through respectable attorneys, without
exposing themselves to risk OF arrest

CONFIDENCE MAN FROM H1SSEs-

He CONS 10 Grief OF HIS First Al
tempt 10 Realize on Forged Paper.
Ne,U Orleans Times.


Yesterday evening a nice young man call
ing himself, John King, but who in reality
is one Hugh Watson, of Carrolton, was
nipped in little financial speculation
whereby, if he had succeeded, he would
have been the richer by 500, aud Messrs
Meyer, Weis j. Co., poorer to that extent.
King selected time when business was
brisk, and ambling into the establishment
of Messrs. Meyer, Weis Il Co., on Cons
mon street, between Baronue and Caronde-
let, he rendered a sight draft for 500,
dated at Union Church, Miss, Feb. l, and
purporting to be signed by j. Wersheimer.
In explanation thereof he stated that he
was John King IN pr0prjd perS0R@, for
merly the proprietor of store at Union
Church, and that the value received in
the sight draft was for the store, lock,
stock and barrel, which he had sold To Wer-
sheimer.
Unfortunately for Watson, it so happen
ed that Mr. Wershaimcrs signature was as
familiar to the firm a. a treasury note, or
the tigure-head on a trade dollar, and,
hence, Watsons game did not succeed.
He was detained in conversation until Cor
poral Graham and Officer Clark were sum
moned, and then quietly given i'll charge.
En- route to the station he rendered Cor
poral Graham his watch and cham to allow
him to escape, and enforced his lnducive
argument by saying that the Corporal
could have no interest in the matter beyond
making the arrest. Watson was neverthe-
less locked up, and on arraignment before
Judge Sheehan was committed to await
hearing in default of bail in the sum of
$1,000.
When searched, letter was found in his
possession, addressed TO Hugh Watson, care
R. B. Stubs, Carrollton 1t was dated

other items, informed Watson that ''the

and that he had better write and fix it. "

PARTED.
ny VALENTINE NON,

by VALENTINE Won
So sad, that we, who long have hod,
As one, the sef-same way,
Should part and parting meet no more
should greet each coming day,
With clouds upon our golden shore,
And HEARTS crushed low meath Fates stern 'ou'

Within yours that 'twould come to this.
dreamed not that In all the land,
Was aught to mar our future bliss
In Autumn when the woods were brown,
And rustic sounds were sweet
We strayed beneath spreading tree,
And you, low at my feet,
BY VOWS OF love and consistency,
Made my full heart with joy rebound
thought not as you kissed my cheeks,
And whispered words 50 soft and low,
That within few short weeks,
Would aught Of pain or anguish know
You seemed so earnest and so true
My faith in you was strong;
But ali, alas, my deep content,
Has persisted as u song!
For you an ear to guilt have lent.
Athwart your path the tempter dew.
Some other girl with face more sweet,
Than mine, now holds your captive heart
Some other girl your footsteps greet,
And bids you from her meier depart
For her you threw my love away,
And made mine image less
For her you cast me in the tide,
OF dark unhappiness
70 her your warm thoughts ever glide
As glide the wind-wsyeS DER the hay.
Then belt so to-day We part
We part and neyermore TO meet,
Yet in the years to come your heart,
know will sometimes sadly beat
AND naught the burning teas can save,
As mem'ry dwells on her whose form,
Low lies within the silent grave,

day evening, to a few of our prominent
citizens.
Any person witnessing his tests could
but feel that his powers are wonderful,
and that there is an unfathomablc mystery
in his marvellous performances. None
can doubt tor a moment that he can, in
deed, read the mind of his subject, for
that was proven conclusively, at Mr..
Cooks, by several delicate tests,-which
We have not space to describe. Mr..
Brown is thoroughly endorsed by our
most eminc Mt scientists, and the mysteri-
GUS power which he possesses, is, in many
respects, unnccountablc even to himself.
There are mysteries in tie realms Of
science for which we as yet are waiting in
the shadows, and mysteries which, no
doubt, ere many years, will be unfoldcd,
and we walk out into the full light of day.
We arc happy to say that Mr.. Brown
has consented to give all entertainment at
Jones' hall, on Monday evening next.
We promise every person who attends
the full worth of his money. We should
also add that Lille May Brown, his wife,
