Discreditable Transactions, Wall ctreet has long since conic to be regarded by outsiders as a sink of business Iniquity, where shrewdness and not honesty insures worldly prosperity and success. It is undoubt edly true that the former high standard of morality does not exist there; that transactions which in former years would be considered as dishonest are now simply looked upon as' sharp, wide-awake, and enterprising. Bui this degra dation has not been confined by any means to the business circles ol Wall street, where there is an easily recognized and lonn-established tone ci honor, which has never yielded to the tempta tions of gain secured by discreditable means. On the contrary, it is seen and felt all through the country. For example, if we arc to believe the Chicago Tr Stunt:, the entire grain trade of 1ie Northwest is characterized by dishonesty and double dealing. Under the "head of "Iricks l the Trade," it says: These are but lew brnnche3 of business that afford so many opportunities for the commis sion of legal frauds as tho grain trade. Some seasons jrive more favorable opportunities thau others, and it is now a well-established fact that whenever the wheat crop ot the country is irregular in quality, and partly or almost en tirely deteriorated, the "scalpers" come in, and pursue a svstematiccourse of plunder with im punity. The "honest farmer," whom we admire so much at a distance, carefully bags his wheat, placing a poorer quality of crain in the middle of the suck than is to be found at either the top or bottom. The interior grain dealer, who knows perfectly well that it is the intention of the farmer to cheat him, makes an otlset by cheating in the weight. Sometimes the farmer gets the start, but in the long run the Advantage is with the buyer, because he under stands the tricks of the trade better. The interior dealer, in order to swell his profits, doctors his grain so tiiat when it reaches Chi cago he may circumvent the inspector and the warehouseman. Car-loads of wheat are "plugged," to use a technical term, with scrapings of oats, rye, barley, and other stuff, for which tho shipper, if he succeeds in evadmg the inspector, will obtain wheat prices. The railroads, which arc directly or indirectly asso ciated with the elevators, understand the game, and refuse to give a specific receipt for grain shipped in bulk the bill of hiding raerelyspeeify tng so many bii-hels, more or less. The country shipper invariably says "less," after the grain lias been received in store and the account of sales returned. The warehousemen know no thing of the leak, the railroads know nothing of the leak, and the shortage is attributed to cracks in the bottom of the" cars. The shipper necks in vain for a remedy. The railroad at'cnt will not give him a speciiic receipt for the grain shipped in bulk, and the ware houseman will make no restitution, claiming the grain receipted for by him was all ihat came out of the car. Sometimes the shipper, -in his eagerness to beat the inspector, overdoes the "plugging," and the wheat which he ex pected would pass hs No. 2, only goes "rejected." This, of course, raises a howl. The shipper insists that the grain be shipped was excellent rn quality, and ought readilv to pass as "No. 2," instead of "rejected." ' He iuveiirhs loudly against the inspector, who, at a safe distance, preserves his equanimity, and knows nothing ot the trouble he has raised. There is yet another link in the chain. The warehousemen, who claim that the profits of "ele vatine" are not commensurate with the capitil employed, speculate on their own account. It has bui n charaed that large purchases of re jected wheat have been made by brokers, in lehalf of the 'warehousemen, who were at the same time liberal sellers of No. 2. Home are uncharitable enough to say that this taking in poor and putting out good grain li the result of a continued and vigorous application of smut machines aud fanning mills, which, if pursued for a sufficient time, would be profitable, both to the warehousemen and the railroads, or rail road officers, who refuse to take grain to auy other elevator. A little more than a year ago, this "doctoring" and "scalping" of urain, re sulting from the inferior crop of 1hi;5, created bo little excitement in grain circles. The Hoard of Trade demanded that Inspectors t-hould be placed in the warehouses, for the express pur pose of arresting any "scalping " but for some time the warehousemen refused to accede to the proposition. Subsequenily they yielded to the public demand, and the Board was allowed to place inspectors in the houses. This, lor a time, hushed all complaints In regard to "scalp ing" in store. Latterly, however, thejinspectors wera to have become derelict in their duties, as both millers and shippers complain that the train delivered to them is not the train called for in the receipts issued by the warehousemen. A notable instance of this kind occurred a few days since, reflecting no credit on the honesty ol the waiehousemeu. BThe Eastern shippers complain that careoea ol grain never hold out on arrival ut llutMo. but fall short from twenty-five to one hundred bushels. Whether the shortage Is the result of swindle heie or at Bult'alo, it is difficult to sny. The instances ot "running over" are of course never heard of. The. pecula'ors who work "corners," and bull and bear the market to suit their interests, stlso have complaints to make, but as they are not deemed to represent any legitimate trade, tbey get little attention paid to their complaints. Their operations are none too honest, and, if they get beaten, it is altogether in their line. They aver that at times the warehousemen issue bogus receipt.', bv means of which the market is broken down after they have almost cornered it. Whether this be to or not, we have no means of knowing; but on the whole, we think it quite likely. Thse facts, charges, surmises, and suspicions fchow that, as at present conducted, the iraiu trade of the Northwest is demoralized. It ibonnds in abuses w hich vex and defraud every honest dealer, and inflict great harm upon our city. Count de Blsmark has addressed a letter to the President ot the Lutheran Consistory of Franklort. which contains some sharp ni-iJHce -gainst the ministers of the Oosoel, who, in their hermonfl, attack the Government. TliE D4ILY The Story of ft It Heir. AN ENOI.IHH BARONETS AD VENTURES. The London A'fVir of January 3 has thfl follow ing interesting story, part of which has iilr"ndy been told, but in an Incomplete form: "The events of real li'o af" often so extraordi nary that the writers of fiction never need trust wholly to tneir imaginations for the materials out of which to lashionlhe most romantic or sensational story. Certainly Kir Itoger Charles Tichbourne, Hart,, who arrived at Southampton yesterday, and was recognized and welcomed by liis Hampshire tenantry as the long-lost heir to an EhkIihq baronetcy and an estate with a rent roll ot from ten to tifteen thousand a year, has done more than his part towards verifying I tie old adage,wnicn, aitDougu too nackneyed to quote, is based upon a truth that is constantly repealing ltnc If. Of course, Sir Boger will yet have to do much to establish his claim. Posses sion is nine-tenths of tho law, and even an infant who Is in this position is generally sure of plenty of friends to do battle lor him, and to ansert the genuineness of his title. But fortunately for all parties, the questions now at issue involve no prolound genealogical puzzle. Baptismal and marriiige registers nave not to be ransacked, or musty parchments, worn and obliterated by age, unfolded to solve the perplexing en If m ft whethpr the individual w ho rails hlmsell Sir Roger Charles Tichbourne is really descended from the first barouet, whose creation dates as tar buck as 1(120. It this were the point to be dechied, the least would be one for lawyers to latten upon for years to come, and the cause of Tichbourne census Tich bourne might be destined to grow in length and obscurity lor the benefit of a remote posterity. But as, in tact, the only thing wnich has to be done is either to prove or to disprove the Iden tity of the new claimant, we may hope for a speedy solution of the problem. The question is whether he is the ton of his supposed father or somebody else's son. The tenantry of Tich bourne Pink, or at least some of their number, appear ahen-jy to have satisfied themselves that the ex-bnche'r of Wiigcra Wapga is in truth the eldest son oi the lateSir James Francis Doughty Tielibouii e. and therelore the lawlul luheritor of the title and property of that defunct worthy. 'This strange, eventful history, as it has come to us tn m Australia, is worth narrating. llany years ago exactly how many does not appear Kotier, the heir of the late baronet, suddenly lett home and took ship lor America. He pro bably surrendered himself lo the influence of that roving disposition which has nliured many a scion ot a wealthy or aristocratic house to the gold-diggings of Australia, to the backwoods of Atactica, or to the forecastle of a merchantman. The vessel which conveyed him to the Ameri can continent was wrecked, and it was expected that Koger was anions those who perished. If the relations of father and son had been unsatis factory, there would probably be no very strict inquiry into the facts, and at best these would be diliicult of authentication. Be this as it may, his younger brother, Alfred ttoseph Tichbourne. was recognized as the heir, and on the death of his father, in 1802, entpred into possession ol ttie title and property. Kir Allred was then a young man, only twenty-three years ot age; and a year previously he had married a daughter of Lord Arundell of Wardour. Ilis life was brief, and its vicissitudes were not a few for our readers may remember the frequent appearance of his name iu connection with certain proceedings in the Court of Bankruptcy. He died a few months ago in the prime ot his youth, lor he was only tweuty-seven years of age: and a short time afterwards his wiuowgave birth to a posthumous child a son. "It was not until intelligence of the death of Sir AlfredLreached the antipodes, that his elder brother revealed himself in his true character. Ills motive for preservinc his iwognito, as he has explained it, certainly does not appear unrea sonable. He says that he was well content that his younger brother should enjoy the position which belonged to him by right, because he was sincerely attached to him, and also because he felt that the vicissituues of his own life had unfitted him to play the part of an English country gentleman. The history of bis rovings would no doubt form an entertaining narrative if we were only in possession of the details. After his shipwreck, he remained some time in America, and his worldly tooils having gone down in the Bella, he pursued a variety of occu pations until, growing tired of the New World, he determined, it ho could, to propitiate fortune in Austialia. "He now appears on the scene as Thomas de Castro, the owner of a small business in Tamul, and subsequently a butcher at Wacrga Wacga, where he married a laborer's daughter named Bryan. Casting off all the old associates, he appears to have adapted himself entirely to the new condition of lile which he had so strangely chosen. Ills position is described as having been 'a veiy humble' one, and his marriage to a plasterer's daughter sufficiently indicates the obscuiity ol his lot. Although the Wagga Wapga Exjreiw is wrong in calling him 'a British peer,' he must sometimes have been sorely tempted to exchange the little butcber"s shop in an unheard-of Australian town for the comforts of the patrimonial home in Tichbourne Park, and it is therefore uot surprising that, win n his brother died, he should have made up his mind to turn his back on Waega Wmrga, and try what enjoyment he could extract out of ten thousand a year. True, he thinks his colo nial experiences somewhat unfit him for the high social position which he will now have to occupy; but he need feel no apprehension on t hut score. Wealth is a great power in this country, and if the adventurous butcher of Wtivea'Wagga could by one spring leap into a dukedom instead of a baronetcy, he would find that the incongruity ol his former state with his new exaltation would be no bar what ever to the reception either of himself or of his duchess into the highest society. Being a simple baronet, he will, if he establish a title, be a great man in Hampshire; and if colonial manners have not made him too democratic, he may one day represent his native county in Parliament. There is only one possible draw back, which is that Sir Roger may be unable to prove himself to be the veritable son of his father." Present State of Literature in India. Interesting particulars concerning the present state oi literature in British India were recently given by M. Unrein de Tassy on the occasion of his first pi'blic lecture at the Imperial Library in Paris. In alluding to the great dispute which has arisen between the Hindoos and tho Mus sulmans as to the preference to be given to the Oordoo dialect over the Hindee, the former being mixed up with much Persian and Arabic, while the other is considered the pure oriirinul language derived from Sanskrit, the learned professor rather inclines to Oordoo, because it is the representative of slamism, which recog nizes but one Cod, while Hindee represents the poiytheist doctrines of the Hindoos. These dialects being thus connected with the roll, ious tenets of the two great dominant sects ot the country, our author states a tact which Is somewhat startling, viz., that there is in India ine same tendency to bring ine language uacs to the pure Hindee standard as there is iu Greece, to revive the language ol Xeuophoc; whence we should be inclined to conclude, contrary to the troth, thit among the natives polytheism is rather on the increase than otherwise. 31. de Tassy says that tho universities of Cal cutta, Madias, and Bombav continue to prosper, and that, the Oriental University of Lahore, founded by the natives themselves, prouiii-es success under Dr. Leitncr's management. Hs object Is chiefly to rpvive the taste for aucient Hindoo and Mussulman literature, aud to in troduce a new kiud, bearing as strong an analogy to European literature as is compati ble with Asiatic ideas. Two principal colleges are to be connected with this university one at Lahore and the other at Delhi each having a a principal or director and six profe-sors. M. de Tassy concluded bis address with an obituary of distinguished Orientalists, viz.: Mr. N. Bland, the editor of the Makhzanulasrnr; the Abbe Bardelli, of Pisa, one of the most learned Sanskrit scholars of Europe: Bishop Hartman. of Allahabad, the author of a trans lation of the New Testament according to the Vulgate in Himloostanee; and lastly, Dr Oeorge Luwurd LjlcL Cotton, Hi 'hop of Calcutta. Attempt nt Wife Poionin: In Michigan. A LAWT1R OFNFWYORK CONVICTED ILLICIT LOVB iRD ATTKMPTD MUKDKR, JtTC. The criminal In tliln cmp is Cnivin M. Northrnp, a lawyer oi this city, - ho fluuroa m the eourts some V in a divorce suit with his former wilo, now tl'ceaeiMl ib Mis Vectder), whnce family roside in Hclif ni olailv, ililn Staio. Prior to thu de-tih of Miss VodUer, Northrnp become, counsel )n a divorce suit tor a woman naniPd Humphreys, against hor huit and, widen he succeodeu in obtaining aud then brought his client to live with hid lamily. The intimacy between onent and coun'sol bocamo so ai parent that Mrs. Morthrnp oecame du mmied and tnade her pareius acqnaimed with toe facta, who in-titottd proceedings in the Supreme Court oi lhi State against is'oiturup, on the ground ol adultery l endiuti tne au.it. the wi.e died, and Nortlirup within lew months alter her dea'h made tho acquaintance ot Miss Kliza White, and br pro. icfmionaoi a loiiirioui education ana a sincere at tachment, won the heart and hand of the victim or hlscrneity. A bnel narrative of the evidence, as developed on the trial last' wee, at ; Ucdiord, Westchester county, before Hon. Juogo oilhert, is as lollown: Morthrnp Biarried Miss White in the month ot July, 1804. something loss than live months alter the decease of ma first wife, and piocceded on thenr weddinir tour to Saratoga, where lie introducep Miss Humphrey! tohlswueaaa yonnjr lady of great respectability, and possessed of a large fortune, and ior whom he wss transacting large law busines. Hia wife received Misa Humphrey as a friend, aud invited her to call on her at fcw lork, whore tiioy lived together at various places at tho Ilancrolt House, 1ity. fourth treot aud 1 wenty-lourtn street, when Mrs. Nortbrup discovered an intimacy betwoen her hus band ana MIrh Humphreys, which caused her to sepaiate irom him and reside with her parent in Brooklyn. Korthrup on this separation beoams penitent, and requested his wilo to return, ana pro. uiised that he would purchase a house ior her in Morrisama ior 16 0. Hoth took possession of the house in April, 165, when Airs. Aorthrup was de livered of a child. Alter the birth of tne child, Northrnp brought Bourbon whisky to the house, and endeavored to make the wife ormk it. oho drank at his request twice, and lound that the whisky did not agroe with her, aud reluted to drink any more, efx days attor her confinement ho u' Bed her to drink half a tumb ler ot what he called 'l'lantation butorsj" she drank about halt the quantity urged on her, when ehe suf fered severe pains. About two weeks after, when Mrs. JSorihrup had recovered strongth, she was in vited by her husband to go down stairs to breakfast. Mie did so, and lound a cup ot cofloe poured out for her, which he informed her was prepared by himseil. (She drank the cofl'ue, and roturned to her room, when she was so zed with tuo same toolings aa when she drank the l'lantation letters, but much more intense, and she Jell into a proiound stupor, which quite exhausted her. and in the presence of her servant fullered intense acony. Korthrup, alter administering the coffee, went to New jork, and returned earlier in tho evoning than nsual, and administered a powerful dose of morphine, which relieved her considerably. Two weeks iuither on, the girl Susan O'Harra, by the direction of JNorthmp, took to Airs. Horthrup a bowl of tea, which she drank, and snortiy alter loll into a stupor, which uid not pass off lor five hours, when she called for a doctor, but Noribrnp refused to go tor one. The doctor called about noon the next day, and found the patient sutToring under all the symptom! of poison. Ho told his patient that she was suffering from the ellects of belladonna. NortLrup shortly alter presented his victim with another cup of coll . e, which she did not drink, out pr served for Dr. llorton, who gave it to his dog, which, alter drink ing it, presented ail the symptoms of having been poisoned, llrs Korthrup then procured a key which opened the trunk ol her would-be murderer, and there lound a vial half lull of a liquid. The viul was taken to the doctor, who pronounced it to be tincture of belladonna. The doctor re moved the contents of the vial into a vial of his own, and refilled it with the same colored liquid as before, and replaced it in the trunk of Nor. hi up. A lew mornings alter Mrs. Northrop entered her kitchen, when sho saw hor husband emptying tho contends of a bottle into a cup of coflue filled out ior her, and he then wpnt to New York. Mrs. Northrnp gave tho coifoo to her dog, w hich was afterwards seized with the same symp toms as tho doctor's dng. In July Mrs. Norttirup r joined her stepfather, John Taylor, a well-known member oi the Methodist church of Brooklyn. Mr. la ior put the matter in the Bands of Chaunoey Shafler, who consulted Dr. Jo-eph Heine, No 61 Last Klevcnth street, on the eflects of belladonna, and then put tho maitcr in the hands ol District Attorney McClelian, of Westchester countv, who indicted Aorthrup for an attempt at poisoning. Ihe esse has excited more interest in Wesichoster county than any case within the memory of the oldest citizen. The court housn and coun yard were crowded during the progress ot the trial. I'ro lessors Dorcmus and IJudd, Dr. Uorton, and other eminent physicians were examined. Iho prosecu tion was conducted by John 6. Bates, the present District Attorney ot Wcsichester county, and C'hauncey Shaffer. The defeuse was conducted by Hubert Cochran and Levi M. Clint field. The case was submitted to the jury at 4 o'clock on Friday morniug, and at 5 they brought in a verdict of gniltv. Tho prisoner was remanded for sentence to the first Monday ot February next. The penalty is imprisonment in the State I'rion for a form of not Icbs than tun years. A'eie York Herald ol yesterday. STOVES, RANGES, ETC.
