a Bold and Hear,less Betrayal.

The Richmond Wa) Dispatch pub
fishes the details of a remarkably bold
and heartless betrayal of young lady Of
the best connections in that city by a
scoundrel who married her in order TO
put himself in position TO perpetrate a
forgery for $500. The young lady had
seen an advertisement in the Hartford
ChurchnaGR in which widower in Ohio
wished a gOverness for his little daugh-
ter. She applied for the place, and
backed the application with the highest
recommendations, including a letter
from her pastor, a highly esteemed
clergyman, and one from an
eminent iurist. The advertiser went to
Richmond, and had several interviews
with the young lady. These were so
satisfactory that after his departure for
the North the clergyman who had re-
commended her qualifications was
astOnished to receive a note from him ar
nOuncing that he had determined not to
take the lady he had recommended for
governess, but that he desired to secure
his services in making her his wife. In
few days thereafter he returned tQ
Richmond, and the would be governess
wasl married to the gentleman from
Ohlo. The groom brought numerous
wellwritten letters of Introduction,
which placed him on an excellent foot
ing, and as wedding gift he settled,
with pen. ink and paper, $50, 600 on the
bride. They then started On their wed
ding tour but before departing the
groom was introduced at the First Ma
tional Bank, where he presented letters
OF credit that gained for him ready
recognition as responsible man, and a
draft upon large banking house of
Chicago secured for him the ready cash
$500 for the immediate wants of a per-
son of his represented importance.
The name given by the groom was
Thomas Marvin. Several days passed
and no intelligence came from the bridal
party to their friends in Richmond, but
the the :rcct.iurn to the bank of the $500 draft,
with advices from Chicago that it was a
palpable forgery, and the horrible cor.
clusiOn was forced upon her friends that
their loved one had been the victim of a
vile imposition. The gentlemen pur-
porting to introduce Marvin were imme-
dlately telegraphed to, and while the
names of many were found to be fic.
titiOus, the response from others came
that the letters were wretched forgeries.
In the meantime dispatch came from
Albion, New York, from the bride, ask.
ing if it was true that her mother had
been killed by an accident at Salem, Va.
as reported in a Northern paper. 1t was
afterwards ascertained that Marvin
manufactured and published the story
OF the accident, thinking she would i'm
mediately return home and he make his
desertiOn of her more easy. Friends
|" hurried to rescue the victim and return
her to her family, and detectives were
put upon the track of the fOrger, but he
is supposed to have made good his
escape into Canada. The Richmond
press withholds the name of the unfortu-
nate victim. The first negotiations in
answer to the advertisement for a gov
erness began early in July, and the mar
riage took place last week

4 Question With Which The Next
Coporess Will Have to Deal.

Among the questions which will con-
font Congress at an early date, is the
advisability of a reduction of the peo-
pies burden of taxation. During the
fiscal year of 1880, more than one-hal1
the sum collected in the shape OF revenue
was surplus, and was used to take up
bonds which were not due. For the fiscal
wear lust closed, of the internal revenue
collected, about $133, 100000, nearly
three-fourths, was surplus and has also
been applied to the taking up of bonds.
Is there any necessity, asks the Bridge
port Fdrner, for a continuance OF this
unnecessarily great taxation2 Has not
the present generation paid its fair
propcr tion of the public debt
Would it not be the better poll
CIV. now that the public credit has
reached 81 per cent. basis, to allow our
business men to increase their reserve
capital or extend their enterprises, instead
of continuing to draw so heavily upon
their profits? Granting that reduction
of taxation is expedient, the question OF
the manner arises. Shall the internal
revenue be abolished, or the duties on
imports be cut down? To the former the
temperance element will object, the
internal revenue being principally levied
upon liquors and tobacco; to the latter
the protectionists will object. as it might
decrease the protection of American
manufactures and products. The mat
ter is so hedged about with difficulties
that action upon it will be nearly, per
haps quite, impossible.

pears to be inclined to extract a bit of
amusement from the submarine ram

views. conveys the impression that the
boat was paid for from the Irish Skin
mishing fund and is intended to drive
British commerce from the seas. II
such were the facts, he would, of course,
be the last one TO divulge them. The
truth evidently is. that the boat belongs
to its inventor or the capitalists who are
behind him, is being used in expert
ments, and is in no way connected with
the Irish cause except that the inventor
is an Irishman, who, like ODOnOvar
Rosa, is perfectly willing to be amused
during the heated term.

No Millennium.

While the recent tragic occurrence,
which has filled the nation with horror,
and has served to draw the people of all
quarters together in common humanity
will. doubtless, tend to Danish much oil
the latent distrust that has pervaded the
formerly hostile sections, it in no man
ner portends the birth of political mil
lennium.
President Garfield must rise from MS
he'd of pain with enlarged ideas OF the
character of MS people, and can, II he
chooses. do great good to all sections in
his administration of affairs. In all that
aims at the welfare of the republic he will
have the appreciation of the Democratic
nartv. North and South. AS we said,
when we perused his inaugural, che
will encounter no factious opposition
from the Southern Democracy" In the
only issue which he made with the enc
mics of the public good he received the
support of the Democrats of the Senate,
anu he may reply upon it in every SINH
lar issue III future.
That parties will cease to suspect each
other. however, and will fight their bat
ties less stoutly, is too much to suppose.
The lines that separate them are too
broad to speedily disappear, and they
could not be blOtted out if party chiefs
desired that they should be- That man
would be unworthy of his rea-
son who should allow a mere
sentiment to efface his principles
or undo the convictions Of years.
The South has given expression to her
sorrow at the sufferings of the Chief
Magistrate, and her reprobation Of the
crime of the assassin with the manliness
and the spontaneity characteristic OF
her people. The North judges her
course as she should Judge it.
But to suppose that the South will
take kindly to Republcanism, tdat mas
worked her such i'll and caused her SC
many wears of anguish and disaster, j;
to strain credulity to the utmost. When
the Republican party ceases to war on the
South as a section; when it consents to
walk WITHIN the confines of delegated
power, It may obtain q footing IN the
South. If Northern journals have iais
taken the measure of Southern opinion
as expressed within the past four weeks,
it is due, perhaps. to haste on the part OF
the one and extravaganza on tiiet Of the
other.
President Garfield, a well-meaning
Executive, was shot down by a COW
ardly assassin. A large section of his
countryIlen who had abundant reason tC
suspect him, but chose to credit his ut
terances, reprobated the deed and learned
to admire him all the more for his manly
endurance and simple faith. They pray
that he viii recover to serve his people.
In every good work they will support
him; the party that elected him they
will prefer to measure by its perform
ances. This is the attitude of the South
to the Presidents misfortune and his ad
ministratiOn.
