Thfl Committee of the Eyre Defense and
Aid Fund Lave pnWUhed their subscription
list. The amount subscribed is over 13,000.
It is announced that on and after the 1st,
of Jnlv the price of a telegram between Paris
and Loudon will be reduced to four fracca per
twenty words.
The BrusRels journals announce that the
Omnibns Company of that city is bankrupt.
sAn association of foreign capitalists is to carry
on the service.
. The English Court of Exchequer affirmed
a judgment to the effect that Hampton Court
is not now a royal residence, and that a Sheriff
has a right to execu'.e a writ therein.
A singular application was made to the
conservators of the Liine, England, the other
day namely, a licenRe to flub, with cormo
rants trained for that purpose. The license
Was granted for the month of August.
Some damage has been done along the
lines of the Euglish railway duriug the recent
intensely hot and dry weather. Sparks and
cinders from the railway engines have set the
grass and hay on fire.
The "girdle" railways around the city of
Paris are adopting new secoud-clas carriages,
in which those who desire to travel on the
roof will have themselves protected from the
wind and dust by glass slides placed on the
Bides of the imperials
Woman is asserting her rights in France
as well as in other countries. The ladies have
appeared on the French Bourse in great num
bers, and buy and sell stock with a vigor and
earnestness completely unknown to the less
favored sex.
The Emperor of Morocco has left his capi
tal with f000 men on another expedition to
punish some insurgent tribes in the North.
Before leaving he aocordfd to M. Thevenin,
the French medical attendant of the Imperial
family, a site or an Arab hospital.
llecently, experiments have been made at
the camp of Chalons with the little cannon
made at the percussion-cap manufactory of
Mention, a mitrailleuse of a new model; while
at St. Maur the men have been practising
some new marxuuvres in shooting invented by
the Colonel of the 2d Regiment of (Jrenadiers
of the Guard. Success is said to have been
complete in both cases.
Large quantities of albumen or the white
of eggs, and also of yolk, are imported
into Eoglaiid from Normandy. The albumen
is used by calico-dressers, and the yolk is
used in the manufcture of gloves. The price
of prepared white of egg was two guineas
per pound not long since. This arose from
the wate it suffered dining the process of
preparation. This waste amounted to as
mnch as Sr per tent.
The War Office casement at Shoeburyness
Lave endured a severe battering, nu the last
occasion with I'alliser shot instead of shell.
The target came out of the ordeal with a re
markable degree of impunity, considering the
enoimous power of the guns brought against
it. Although mere or less penetrated by
twenty-nine t-hot and shell, not one of the holes
Ehowed any symptoms of radiating fissures, a
testimony beyond all question ot the unrivaled
quality of the iron.
Ooe of the first effects of the new press
law in France lias been the establishment of
Eeveral new journals iu the proviuoes. Others
are announced, and some which already ex
isted, but which had oflioial connections, in
tend to separate from them and become inde
pendent. The Dtbats calls attention to the
fact that all or nearly all these papers will
be opposition organs, and it considers this cir
cumstance of some importance.
A Parliamentary return just issued shows
that during the year ending iliroh 31, lSu'7,
f-5,033 Enlield riuVs, 10,012 short rifles, and
4998 naval rifles were converted into breech
loaders on the Snider system at the Royal
Small Arms Factory, at a total cost of
108,511, being an average of nearly 22.
each. During the same period 17,99b'
Richards' patent breech-loading cavalry car
Lines were made, at a cost of 3 17s. 41. each.
The Moscow Gazette expresses great alarm
at the large proportion of Polish officers still
to be fonud in the Russian array. It shows
from official reports that at the end of the
year 18U7 the total number of officers was
21,908, of whom l(i,5R5 professed the Russian
orthodox religion, 3217 were Roman Catholics,
and 1531 Protestants. As in this case the
terms Roman Catholio and Pole are synony
mous, one seventh of the officers in the Rus
sian army are Poles.
Lord Stanley has formally inaugurated
the new Foreign office. There was an as
sembly (preceded by a diDner party), which
was attended by the elite of the aristocracy
and the fashionable world in London. The
magnificent suite of reception rooms intended
for the use of the Foreign Gffioe Department
were thrown open for the lirst time, aud their
grandeur of proportions, beauty, harmony,
aud completeness of deooratiou, were the
theme ot general conversation aud admiration.
Returns have been published relative to
the strength and efficiency of the Royal Naval
Reserve. Rear-Admiral Tarleton, the controller
of the coast guard, reports that the eight
commanders of the drill-ships are officers of
f xperieuce, on whom reliance may lie placed.
According to their estimate, of the 9000 men
of the reserve who were drilled on board
their ships last year, 1250 wero lit for petty
officers' ratiDgs, lwH) for leading seamen,
4K'0 were good able seamen, and 1150 were
fair able seamen.
What is called "a civil funeral," that is,
a funeral unattended with religious rites, took
place at Brussels recently. The deceased was
Madame Van Meeiieu, a lady in her eighty
eighth year, and the widow of a Judge. The
ceremonies were oonducted by an Association
tailed the "Free Thought Society," and we
are told that a procession of more than two
hundred persons, "almost all belonging to
what may tie called the elite of intelligent so
ciety at Brussels," followed the remains tj
their last resting place. M. (luflin, the Presi
dent of the Free Thought Society, delivered a
iuneral oration, which was "ium tie ca:ur et
d'tltvulion de bcntiment."
A return of the sickness and number of
deaths among the troops serving iu India,

of climate on European, as compared with
native troops. The aggregate of the three
Presidencies was as follow!: out or an

THE BOSTON MASK SWIA'DLE.
Cnrloua Particular.
The I'oston correspondent of tha Chicago
ft xbune furnishes the following fimruliir sia'.e-
meufb in icgard to tue robbery ot the Hide aud
Leather Dank by the cashier:
"ine Uinctors or the uniortunate Hide and
Leather Hank have been 0'Upelled by the prcs
suie cxerciied by the newspapers to put lortu
a statemeut of the result ot their iuveslleation
into the robberies ot theu cashier. Ta's is,
n ore projeily speakin?, aa apology for not
making a siatenicnt in detail, which it is
thought would aid tho swindler in making up
dtieuse lor the trial, which is to come off in
lew mouths. The Directors reiterate
that the lost which the bank has sustained
is "only live hundred and seventy-uve thousand
dollars," and take some credit to themselves lor
the lact that they have Lot lost a dollar by in ju
dicious loans, ana mat an tueir aiviueuus nave
In en the rtsullot actual earnings, and that tiy
have not contributed to the pauic which has
assailed the stock of the bank by selling one
ot the shares owned by themselves. It seems
that the defaulting cashier combined with a
stupendous tn lent lor roguery, a still more wou
derlul faculty tor inspirius; confidence in bisowa
honesty. Iu all the lnvtsngatinua into the affairs
ot the bank, made by the Directors aud by a
cuitea siaies omc'-r every lew months, the
cashier was the fuido and interpreter, and his
exptiinat ons and seneoules heme accepted im
plicitly, it only required skillful boos-kecperson
tils part to con ten I hi j enormous stealings. Ot
coun-e as the toial amount crew larger and
laririr, his fictitious figures became more and
more complicated, and it Dccomei a marvel
indeed how one head could carry the whole
loao ot inuicale deception. His career was full
ot narrow scares. At one time, it is said, a
depositor sent ihree thousand aollsrs to the
ILile and Leather Hunk, wb.ch, his messenger,
bj mistake, cairn d to the stioe aud Leather. A
fewdajs later, the dtpo5itor not QuJiuf the
amount laced to his credit at the former insti
tution, nsfced thecashienn regard to it. Oastaier,
a'raid to make anj objection which mii;ht in
volve an investigation in'o broks, he kuew to
be a muss of lie, acknowledged a mistake he
had not made, and placed the three thousand tu 1
deoositor's credit. Deno-itor hv tid hv leui-ned V
that the tame umount, ot whicn he Kncvv
notmng. was stnndiui in his name at the other
bank. J ct all this was sualirhtened out with
out bursting i'artin's bubble of villainy. The
cnthn r used to prevent any disclosure of dis
account cooking by compla'urs coming in by
mull, bj pomir hiinsclt to the post office, and
abstnu tui(i all letters which spoke of errors iu
his accounts, rectify inc the matter by plun ler
lissome other account, aud perhaps writing
t'liitseii in reply some expiauauon or apology.
Thus, an indignant customer would write to the
ice-president and manacer ot the bank. Mr.
Wareb, a mrious account of abominable errors
in his accounts, au.i, calling a little later, would
be icceived by that gentleman, a I unconscious
of anythirg wtoul', with a bland suavity
wi icu i.e would attriD'ite to a most wou-
dtrful impudence. Uuce, it is stid, tho
caslihr received a P'tter Iroru the oflicer of a
ne phborinc bank, whose patience had been ex-
LanstPd by the triquency ot what seemed blun
ders at the Hide aud Leather, and wuo wrote:
"lour account ot such and such a date is re
el Ivt d, and is incorrect, as uual." The cashier
saw a chance lor a compliment, elaborately
i rased to letters, aud parsed in the letter to
t lie directors as a testimony to the eratityiu
fact that his account ws "correct as usual."
With that inexpiicablo insanity on one little
point which characterizes all great criminals,
he preserved, with scrupulous care, all tho iu
lerKPted loiters above mentioned, all the
clucks which he had fraudulently pal I tor hn
ccconiplice, Fclton, and o her clues by which
to unravel the pro'ructed skeio of his guilt.
It is rem. nk i d as somewhat significant that
tlie earliest and loudest, uewspapi-r clamor for a
ion and minute statemeut of the discoveries
ol the Directors, has been originated aud kept
up by a lournal ot whieli one ol the boudsmen
of A'artin, who will suffer by the defalcation if
tne tuiilt can be legally brought home to the
late cashier, is owner and manager.
