CREME. HIC-1 TWAT' ROB BERTES A Series of Crimes Near eevelaad, Ooio Singular Audacity of the Robbcra rrrom the Cleveland .Herald, Jan. 15.1 We puolished yesterday an account of the shooting of William Fuller, Esq.,. of Brigh ton, by highwaymen, and of several daring robberies committed by them ou Monday el-. fling. There were two or three parties of robbers in the vicinity of Brooklyn on Mondy evening, although whether they were all "pals"belonging to the same gang, and acting in concert, cannot, of course, be known. Very shortly after nightfall, a young man named Mar tin Beebe, who lives a mile and a half south of Brighton. ou the "State Road," • while riding into ihe village on horseback, was suddenly confronted by two men, one of whom seized the bridle of his horse, and the other pointed a pistol at his head and demanded his money. Ile bad In his pocket-book $53 in money, besides about 01.‘160 in notes. He had his own private views' regarding such transactions, but reconciling himself to his fate, he handed them his pocket-book. After taking the greenbacks. they returned it to him, remarking that the notes• would be of no use to them. The next victim was a boy named Castle, who was driving toward Cleveland, four or five miles from Brighton, on the Medina turnpike. His ex perience was similar to that of Beebe, he being relleved'of all the money in his possession,amount ing to $l3. About the time that these robberies became ainown, two men named Henry Ausperger and Laurence Rieder, arrived by the Cleveland road, in a state of the greatest alarm. They had . been to the city together, with a load of hay, and. when returning, as they reached the top of the hill, two men sprang from the roadside, and with the pistol accom paniment, demanded their "stamps." One of the men valorously seized a pitchfork which was in the wagon and made sundry hostile demonstra tions upon the attacking party, evincing a dis position, to "fight it out on that line." The click of the revolver had a subduing effect, however, and laying the weapon aside, they pro ceeded to feel for their pocket-books, and quietly handed them over to the misters of the situation. When first' accosted by the robbers, the men replied that they had no Money. One of the highwaymen said: "Yes, you have, for .1 sara you hare a thousalpi to4lay, on the market." It seems that a few days since a man named Schirmer, living . in Parma, sold his farm, preparatory to removing West. On Mon day he.was in Cleveland, in company with Ausper ger, having in his possession quite a large sum of money s and which he was so imprudent as to show in one or two places. Scarcely had Au sperger and Rieder finished recounting their ad ventures, when there came yet another, a lad named Jacob Field, about seventeen years of age. His father is a cooper. living in Brighton, and he had sent his son into the city with a load of bar rels. He was but a short "distance behind the men above mentioned, on his return. Upon arriving at the same spot where they had fallen among thieves, he, too, was stopped, and ordered to produce forthwith whatever loose change he might have about him. The boy had excellent "pluck," and braVely refused' to comply with their demands. Ow of them leaped into the wagon and informed him in a tone of voice that evidently meant "business," that he must have his money. Jacob ..endeavored to conceal his pocket-book, but be fore he could succeed, tlie . VillaiiiStiicite . liirn with his fist, as a reminder. Knowing the utter fu tility of resistance, the lad surrendered his poeliet-book, containing about $.410, which lie had received for his barrels. After this the rob bers attacked Mr. Fuller and nearly Murdered him, as we detailed yesterday. ARREST OF A SWINDLERS EL Career of Crime• (From the Boston Heraltl, Jan.l6th.) :tome weeks since a middle-6;4(d man 'named William E. Betz, who is said to belong in New York, made his appearance among our traders and purchased bills of goods varying all the way from $5OO to $1,500, ostensibly for parties in New York, and for which he tendered in payment what purported to be checks on some New York banking house,- but which, when too late to save the goods, were found to be worthless. In some cases he received the cash balance resulting from a difference between the face of the check and the value of the goods purchased. Boston merchants, we learn, are not the only parties thus victimized, other persons in some of our eastern cities having also suffered. Some of them instituted a pursuit of this man Betz, who is said to be well known throughout the business community of the country, and he was traced to Chicago. where he was arrested a few days since. Tho Massachusetts parties desired to hold him amenable, and so obtained a requisition on the Governor of Illinois, which was placed in the hands of Detective D. C. Jones, who went West, .secured his man, and returned with him to Bos ton, arriving last evening. Betz has been com mitted for examination on charges of obtaining goods under false pretences. According to report the life of the prisoner has been a somewhat eventful one. He was once pes. , !.essed of an independent fortune, which be came depleted at the gaming table, for the ex citement attending which he seems to have had an uncontrollable passion. Ile had married a beautiful and wealthy lady in New York, whose father perceiving in Betz, excellent business talent if he could be kept from gaming, took him into partnership and for sometime laf did well; but his passion for gaming again obtained the mastery and he speedily became bankrupt. In this stat , l of affairs his father-in-law discarded Rita and ins - Wife - returned - to - her father's - house: • Betz thenceforw,.rd appears to have become reeklets, and to have commenced a series of ope rations like that which has now brought him into the clutches of the law. ELOPEMENT IN NEW JERSEY* A Wife Absconds with her Husband's Ciands. (From the Trenton American, Jan. la.] On Tuesday afternoon Detective Bart, em ployed by the Morris and Essex Railroad Com pany, received a despatch from Powers Small, a gym', at present sojourning as Newton, request ing him to arrest his wife on the arrival of the afternoon mall train in Newark, as she had eloped with a large amount of money. The despatch de scribed the woman minutely, and when the train arrived at Newark,Offieer Burt bad no difficulty in picking her out from among the other passen gers. She was accompanied by her two children —a boy of five years and a girl of thrcc,and when arrested she seemed quite willing to accompany the officer into the ladies' room of the depot, where she was detained until her husband ar rived by the Easton train, which arrives about 9 P. M. She had with her some $4,000, $OO of - which was in gold. On being asked why she had deserted her husband and stolen his money, she said he had become attached to a young woman belonging. to the tribe, and fearing he would elope with her, taking the money him self, she thought she would put it out of his power to take from her and the children the money that had been accumulated by their joint efforts. On the arrival of the husband a recon ciliation took place, and the twaiu returned to Newton together this morning. JON AIWA', U. OF HONOR. Duel Near Paterson, N. lien' York Merchant and a Dank Clerk the Principals-The A : Or11101" Shot tn . the Head, , .. • [Fron3 thp New-York.Tinicii.l Yesterday morning an affair of honor—now-a days 50 rare an ochurrence, especially in our northern latitude, with the weather cold enough to freeze the hot blood—came off in the neigh borhood of Paterson, N. J. The participants in the duel were gentlemen of this city'—one a Mr. C. X. Pemberton, an importing mer chant, the other a Mr. Dehlieux, a Wall' street hank el. rk. The duel ended with a single exchange of shots, Mr. Pemberton's bail istriking a tree close by, while that of Mr. De blelux, being better aimed, struck his antagonist In the forehead, inflicting a serious wound. The quarrel, it is told, originated in this way. A iiort time since the parties concerned attended a ball at Irvitil Mall. Mr. Pemberton secompanied alater - of Mr. Deblelug. During the course of the evening the litter , learnvi that his sister THE DAILY EVENINGI3ULLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY. JANUARY 17,1868. had been insulted by his friend, and he at mice sought out Mr. Pemberton and charged him with tho offence ; a quarrel ensued between them, hut they v.ere soon separated by the ball committee, and there for the , time tho matter resti d. On the following morning, however. Deblieux wrote- to Pemberton demanding an apology. This the latter declined to give, where upon Mr. Deblieux, who is a Southerner by-the by, sent a friend to Pemberton challenging him to fight him, or in ease of refuSal to prepare for consequences • which must result at their first meeting. Pemberton, even at this crisis, it is said, not havit g the faintest idea that the threat would be carried out, still consented to meet his antagonist and put his share of \ the matter into the bawls of a few confidential friends who were inclined to look upon the thing as a good joke. Neverthe less the usual preliminaries were regularly gone through, and the spot selected for the encounter. On Wednesday evening the duellists, accom panied by their confidential friends, left the city for Pater,on, whore they stopped all night, keep ing their plot against each other's peace from the public ear. Yesterday morning, after break fast, the party proceeded in carriages to Good near-Paterson, and retired to a secluded spot of this '3f:eluded place to carry out their deadly purpose. 'then and then only, it appears, did the thing begin to look truly serious to the friends, who bad beenood-naturedly waiting for a hand shaking, which would settle the matter. They tried to settle the difficulty. Pemberton being wiling, but Deblieux was inexorable in his demand for blood, remarking that if Pem berton attempted to leave .the ground before he had given him satisfaction he would shoot him then and there. As it was now evi dent that this gentleman meant all he said, the final preparations were made, the friends•of both parties exacting a promise that single shots only — would - be - exchanged, whatever the result,. In conceding to this proposal, Deblieux remarked, "One shot will do me, I only ask but one;" and as ho said so, he looked perfectly cool and un concerned. Pemberton, on the contrary, evidently disliked the affair, and took his position with evident embarrassment of manner, and with a tremulous hand.* The words one, two,three being given, with the utterance of the last came the report of either pistol eimulto neonsly. Deblieux stood unhurt, 'l.cmberton's ball having passed to. his left, lodging.. in a tree close by; Mit he had succeeded in malting good his word, for his antagonist was found to have received a dangerous gash in the side of the head and a slight fracture of the skull, the ball escaping the brain only by half its own diame- ter. Pemberton's wound was hurriedly dressed, and the entire-party returned to Paterson as qutetry as they had left it, and thence took return cars for• the. City, Where they duly arrived and sepa rattd, mutually "EatisLied," no doubt. It is to be hoped that Mr. Pemberton's wound has seen its worst: his friends think so. Hence it may be in ferred that the whole story of this latot athir of honor is now told. Suicide in Boston. [From the Boston herald, Jan. 16. i Mr. George Fowler. a gentleman about 63 yemff of age, Who has pursued the avocation of school teacher for upwards of •l 0 years, and wile within a short time has taught a private school in Liu min Hall, Uoncord street, this city, shot himself through the bead 'with a single barreled pistol sometime last night, and was found lying dead upon a lounge in his room at No. :2 Cumwton street this morning. No cause for the deed is assigned, unless it bo foUnd in the fact that for some time past his efforts in the cause of education had not brought sufficient compensa tieb. Mr. Fowle was &man of peculiar attain ments and the possessor of many excellent urac tical ideas regarding the education of the young, and his old plupils, who are scattered over, the world, ioll.li6ar sad end.

BELLE BOYD LIS COURT. The Southern Spy Divorced From Hor Riisba►nt. [From To.day'g Now York 1.191!Id:1 Another chapter in _the eventful. hitory of Celle Boyd, "Stonewall" Jackson's favorite scout In the Shenandoah Valley during the campaign in Virginia, closed yesterday - , when Judge Cae dbzo, at Supreme, Court, Chatuber,s, ren dered' ft decisiOn dissolving the - bands of matrimony between the "Belle of the Valley" and Samuel \V. Harding. At the close of her career, which rendered her name historic in con nection with Borne of the events' of the late re-, hellion, Belle went to England and made her dr but as au actress at one of the London theatres. While in the exercise of her new vocation she be came acquainted with a man named Samuel W. Harding, and subSequently, on the 25th of Au ust, 1804, was married to him in that city at St. James's church, Piccadilly. She continued to per form in public for some time,her narammemo rabic in consequence of tier daring and romantic achievements on behalf of the "lost cause," proving a Sufficient attraction to the English peo ple, so many of whom sympathized with the Southern peeple in their struggle. Harding, her husband, who had also acquired some notoriety as an author and an actor, was formerly an offi cer in the United States naval service. A short time since Belle returned to America with her husband and performed in vari ous theatres throughout the country, and only a few evenings since mado her bow to a Now York audience at the French theatre. In Decem ber last, in consequence of certain proofs of infi delity on behalf of her liege, she commenced an ' action for divorce a vinenlo nirerintemii against him. The suit was instituted in the Supreme Court by the service of summons and complaint upon her husband personally = and services admitted in his own handwriting. The case was referred to Gratz Nathan, to take testimony and determine the issues, and report with his opinion thereon to the court. Proof was taken of the marriage, and it was conclusively shown that the defendant was huilty as charged in the complaint, the offence aving be'n committed with one Fannie Sinclair, a courtesan, at a house in Crosby street. The defendant did not appear upon the reference, as he is at present in California, but his father was present and superintended hie son's interests, no defence being interposed, however. An autograph letter of the defendant, written to "My Dear Colonel," a friend of lEarding's giving the real and fictitious names of "his damsel," Fannie, and stating that she "had a card of his (Harding's) sticking in her glass." was al'so pro duce d for the plaintiff in evidence. The referee reported in favor of plaintiff on all the issues, and the court confirmed the-report yesterday. Belle asks no alimony from- her former husband, and was apparently anxious only to got rid of him. She stated explicitly on the reference that she wished to resume her maiden name, Belle Boyd.
