THE DELEYAN WILLIAMS.

On Saturday OF last week, letter, a
was brought to The Office OF this paper,
by the husband of the writer Of the let
ter, both of whom are deaf mutes, which
conveys in substance: that the writer
and her husband were employed by Mr.
c. L. Williams, the principal of the
deaf and dumb school in Green Bay, at
the time Of the establishment of the said
| school, in November last, to solicit sub
scriptions for the school, and that, after
this service was rendered by them, Mr.
Williams requested them to continue in
his employ and work about the school.
This they consented to. Shortly after
this arrangementsthe husband obtained
work i'll mill in the vicinity of Green
Bay, and left his wife at the school.
The writer then alleges that Mr.. Will
Hams, on two occasions during the month
of March, while her husband was away
from the school, forcibiy compelled her
to submit to criminal relations with him.
That on Sunday, the sd of March, the
date OF the last outrage, and Immediately
after its commission, gentleman from
DePere called at the school, and the
young woman asked Mr.. Williams to
permit her to go to DePere with this
gentleman, and obtaining his consent,
she did SO. That upon the arrival of her
husband IN DePere, on the Thursday
following, she acquainted him with Nr.
Williams actions towards her. The let
ter, which is 6 lengthy one, and written
in phraseOlogy peculiar to deaf mutes,
gives the details Of the alleged transact
ions, which il is unnecessary to recite
here. When we had finished reading
this letter the husband of the young
woman asked our advice about the pro.
priety OF his going at once before a mag
Istrate and making criminal complaint
against Mr.. Williams on behalf of his
wife. In consideration of the accusa-
tions, both as bearing upon Mr.. VII
Hams and the writer of the letter, and
having no further knowledge OF the
grounds for the accusations than was
contained in the letter, we informed him
that we were unable to advise him in the
matter until we could obtain further in
formation concerning it. Subsequently
we called at the house at which the par
ties were staying, and obtained addition
al information concerning these charges,
from the young woman, which was con-
veyed in such a straightforward way.
and with such apparent sincerity, as to
impress us with the belief that there was
sufficient truth in the statement to war
rant an investigation into the affair. and
advised them to write, or visit. their
relatives In reference TO the matter.
This they have done, and, in Difference
to feeling of delicacy about the subject
being brought into court, these relatives
have advised them not to take legal
action IN the matter, and in consideration
OF this feeling We have refrained from
giving the names of the parties making
| the accusation. -DeDere Ne3rs.

SLAUGHTER OF PRISONERS.

ST.. PETERSBURG, April IA Kieff
correspondent Of the st. Petersburger
,}oH5,ul gives the following account of
the outbreak among the political prison
ers last month: Persons under arrest
IN the Kief prison resolved some time
ago TO tunnel under the walls and escape.
The scheme was betrayed by one of the
conapirators. The authorities allowed
the prisoners to continue the excavation.
when the tunnel was completed, and
the prisoners had entered ii, one after
the other intending to come up through
the opening beyond the prison precincts
the soldiers previously posted at the
opening shot the escaping prisoners as
they came up. When the bulk of the
prisoners, terrified by the noise of the
firing stopped and remained IN the tun-
mel, soldiers were sent in from behind,
and the unfortunate wretches, caught
between two fires, were all shot down.
The proceeding seemed to give the Off
cials much amusement, and the Director
of the kieff prison was praised and dec
Grated for having acted with such clever
ness and decision.
