THE MILLPORT TRAGEDY. —TLIO affair lias (nded by Ilogers having fleil the coun try, it is said. It will be remembered that Rogers preferred charges against Miss Falls, his outraged assailant, and she gave bail to appear before the next Grand Jury recently in session at the Court Ilouse, to ans ACT to the charge of an assault with an attempt to hill. By the non-appearance of the prose cutor the prosecution has ended, and as no indictment was found, the attorney of Miss Falls succeeded in quashing the complaint. These facts certainly extenuate the crime committed by Miss Falls, and confirm the charges laid against her seducer. — Elmira Aiictsiiscr, RAILROADS. —The Lehigh Valley railroad is being pushed on with commend able energy.

The work between Port Griffith and Mill Creek will be quite light, and can be forwarded with rapidity whenever the road south of that point is so far completed as to require it We can see nothing to pre vent this route to Wilkesbarre and the cities being opened at the time first announced, August next.— Pittston Gazette. WYOMING COUNTY. —The house of Mr. Norman Whitney, about two miles southwest of Factoryville, was burned last Wednesday morning, about nine o'clock. The fire was occasioned by the boiling over of a pot of coal tar, which was placed on the stove in the kitchen, by Mr. Whitney, to warm, in order to mend a leak in the roof. His face and hands were burned as he courageously lifted the flaming tar from ithe stove to the floor. He thought of a keg of powder, and immediately removed it from the house to a safe distance in the meadow. Everything else was burned,— The family escaped with the clothes which they wore only, for the fire spread so rapid ly that in an incredible short time they were houseless. The insurance is light, and the loss is estimated at over three thousand dollars. Mr. Whitney is abundantly able to rebuild and we presume will soon have another residence erected and comfortably furnished.

A "CRACKSMAN" ON HIS TRAVELS.— the New Albany (Indiana) L&ljer, ol the 13th inst., reports the arrest of a man who was once arrested in Cincinnati, on the charge of petit larceny, and upon whose per son was found a bunch of burglar's keys, several forged checks, and various other suspicious papers. Among the papers was a song book, on the tiy-leaf of which was written the following : "My right name is Henry Javan Salisbury. I have two uncles, hy the name of H. Il.Jesup and Samuel •Jesup, who are missionaries to Syria. My grandfather is the lion. William Jesup, LL Do who was either President or Vice Frcsi dent of the American Board of Foreign Mis sions. He resides at Montrose, Susquehan na county, Pennsylvania. 111 am killed the person who finds this will do me a favor by sending word to my relatives. My father's name is Colonel J. B. Salisbury. He was iu General Siegel's and General Milroy's stall's during the war. He was residing, when last heard from, at No. 341 Fifth Ave nue, New York City. Will Meylert is the naino Igo under now. I have 'shoved' a good deal of 'queer' during my day, and 'cracked' many a house." This memorandum was no doubt written under the impression that he might be kill ed while attempting to "crack" a house, in another memorandum he claims to have studied law in Mr. Ewiug's office, in Pitts burgh, having left here a few weeks ago for St Louis. He stopped in Louisville, how ever, where he doubtless ran short ofmoney. He put up at the National Hotel, but left there after getting in debt and being unabl6 to pay his bill. His baggage was retained by the proprietor, to whom he wrote a let ter, begging the return of a package con taining tobacco, as he was "a dear lover of the weed." The authorities of New Albany having received information sufficient to satisfy them that Salisbury, aikts Meylert,is a forger, counterfeiter and burglar, telegraph ed to the cashier of one of our city banks, upon which he forged a cheek, and also to the Chief of Police, notifying them that ho had Salisbury in custody and subject to their orders.
