An Ahseouding cashier.

New YORK, September 15.-It is reported
at the Office of the Central railroad of New
Jersey that Dwight S. Lathrop, assistant
cashier, has absconded after appropristing
$4,000 of the company's money. He was
appointed by the late Judge Lathrop his
uncle, who was then receiver. An invesliga-
ton was begun lately, and 9 week ago def
cit OF at least $4,000 was discovered. La
throp then disappeared, accompanied by a
woman he had been living with on Staten
Island. His plan was to alter deposit tickets
on his way to bank and deduct the difference
in money, at the same tine falsifying the
books to cover his Irregularities.

Wizard Stations.

The performance, once begun, proceeds
without break; everything runs like clock
work; feats of sensational daring and exhi-
bitions OF grace aSd skill alternste, and the
mingled astonishment and delight OF the
spectators is never allowed TO flag for an in
slant. The astounding performance by the
six performing stallions-Prince, Duke, EN-
peror, General, Sultan and King-reminds
one OF Swifts "Houhynhums: Upon the
whole, the behavior of the animals was 40
orderly and rational, SO acute and judicious.

magicisns, who had thus metamorphosed
themselves" To see these six stations drill
like soldiers. sit on chairs in circle, come
singly to the front at Mr.. Organs COM
mand, and finally march out on their hind
legs, is alone worth the price of admittance.
These wonderful trick stations are to be
seen at each performance in w. w. Coles
great circus and menagerie, which will ex-
hibit at Memphis on Monday, October I'd.

Notwithstanding the conspiracy had his off

transparent and go glaring that even the
counsel for the defendants are constrained to

JASPER, Tenn, September 15.-This COM
pletes the last of the canvass by Hawkins,
Bessley and Fussell in East Tennessee. In
the whole round OF appointments in that d.
vision of the State they have not met over
1000 people. OF these, four-fitbs have been
Republicans. OF the few Dem ocrats who
have attended, Fnssell has not met exceed
ing 300 supporters. Bessley's vote in East
Tennessee will come chiefly out of the Re
publican party, and will not exceed $50.
The crowd at Jasper wss nearly all Repub-

substantially the same, except that Fussell
left out his temperance matters. Beasley
has turned out larger area of wbiskers since
leaving East Tennessee. II is supposed that
Hawkins will pull off his jeans breeches

certificates were taken WdS married on the oth,
and funds due on them were paid promptly
on presentation OF proof.
By this il will be seen that the benefit was
paid on the very day that application was
made for a charter, and that business was

The HiIIsdaIes Beaten by an Acciden


LONDON. September 15.-The rare between
the Hillsdales and the Thames Rrowing Club
crew was won by the Thames. The weather
was fine and the attendance large. There
wss a good start, the Hillsdales taking the
lead. A foul was made half-mile from the
start, for which the Americans were to
blame, apparently. After the Hillsdales led
for two miles they broke slide, and the
Thames crew went to the front and finished
four lengths ahead.
The Standard, in its evening edition, says:
"The time of the Hillsdales for the first mile
was four minutes twenty-three seconds,
and they had lead OF clear length. Their
time to Hammersmilh bridge was seven min
utes fifty-three seconds, that of the Thames
eight minutes one second. The Hillsdales
arrived opposite Cheswick church in twelve
minutes thirty-fve seconds. Captain Ter
wilIigers,s slide then broke. He held it up
in his hand and threw it overheard. Not
withstanding the accident, the Hillsdales'
time at the finish was only fourteen seconds
behind the Thames crew." The Standard
nevertheless thinks the race has yindicated
the English style of rowing, and that the
Americans were firing rapidly when the
mishap occurred. Gulston, who was to have
been umpire, was absent. Chambers acted
az umpire.
