the art of luaklui; elegant hook. And thu f.iet
oiiei,s np a stiifiniur siifc'no-aion. namely, whether
the 01 iglnal inventor ol letters was nut, aiiur all,
entitled to greater gratitude from tun rare of
man than the Inventor of mutal tvpc or the
builder of the swiftest printing pre.-. It la not
often that men think of tho ill- cover of the art
of making sounds visible to Ill's cvo, so thut the
power of tho human voice cm be extended be
yond the more limit of the liuniin lumrs. The
word "reading," in whatever U igu-tire it In found,
implies the debt due to the i-ivuntor of a pho
netic alphabet.
Picture writing was of no sp.ri.il value until it
assumed a phonetic characer, or nntil pictures
formed au alphabet of sound. It was cowptra
tiveiy ea-y to make a picturo uf a scone, or an
event, or of a desired obiect Hut to place in
distinct view before tho eye of men the utter
ances of the human voice, ho that the sounds
which hnd formerly died away in the ripples of
the atmosphere, nnd left no impression except on
the memories of men who heard them, should
be impressed ami conveyed Irom place to plaeo,
and preserved Irom age to age, this certainly was
the lundamcntnl discovery on which philosophy
and science in nil nges liavo depended. Kven the
latest grand inrcmion, the telegraph of Morie,
acknowledges its debt to the 1100 of a writton
language, though it makes a new and peculiar
system of letters.
How nnd when this lnvontion of letters origi
nated it is bard to say. T lie earliest Egyptian
bierogl phics, dating at moro than two thousand
ar hi lore Chiist, aro believed by learned men
to be phonetic, or partially so. Thus Cbampol
lion's system Is baited on the theory that pictures
frequently anil usually represent tho sound
ut'tred first in enunciating the name of the otiject
represented. As, for example, In English an
ego would represent tho long sound of K,
while an eh pliant would represent the short
sound of the suine letter. Tins is a very natural
1 ml not at all unlikely way of accounting for tho
oilginof aphmetic alphabet. And if this sua
r anion tie correct, it would seem not impossible
that the invention of letters, like the steam-engine
and oilier great motive powers in the physical
world, was a growth of .years, and did not spring
at once into perfection, or even so near perfection
as to be of much practical use at tho slarl.- .V. 1'.

"Tuesday II. It. ll.'s usual amiability was
disturbed by special petition, on tho part of his

Drrldedly the moat startling and sonsHinal

Otcnrred la the criminal history of this vicinity

fitatea and local authorities yesterday and this
morning. The facts are briefly 'he"; ; 1'or many
years there lived In Germany at Col igne, we
believe a yonng banker by the name of Louis
Ooldenfauss. Trusted by his employ, rs nnd
acquaintances with all the scen ts of the financial
world, he is said to have not only forged the
names of prominent merchants as dra-nrs ari l
endorser on t.'lis of rxchancc, but also to have
successfully imitated the private mark whi.h
denotes tho genuineness of tho paper.

In rainp.iny with Otllcer llurlliut, he proceeded
to Pittsiown and arrested OnWonfanss, nli it
(ieruud, at his hums. The othVeis also brought
with them a safe containing thirty-five thousand
dol'nrs in gold, and reached here at ruidnig it.
'1 his morning the prisoner was taken to Now
Y ork, but his friends secured the leg il services
of M. I I'ownsend and 1'. II. H.ionnan, and en
deavored to claim possseaslon of the safe, which
was lodged in the jail otlico. It will possibly tie
sent by express to New York, and tioldeniauss
will start lor Germany by the next steamer.
His friends claim his innocence ; but thooillccrs
say that whe n he was arrested be made a full
confession. Tho allair has made unite an excite
