BISK *I.I.AM. A Wouilcriui Biatory. The English people have - been much ex cited over the trill of Risk Allah,on a charge of murder, of which he has been honorably acquitted. An English paper famishes the following interesting account of his wonderful life : What strikes us is Risk Allah's wondrous life and adventures. It combines every re quisite for a romance of real life.' It exhibits a very remarkable character and a still more remarkable career. In literature there are two picturesque books which wo seemed to bo recalling when wo surveyed Risk Allah's life as portrayed by himself and by undeniable facts; and . that they are- two of the most charming books in modern literature does no discredit to the present hero. It is only in the fictitious bi graphics of Gil Bias aha Anastasius that we can recall anything like the romantic and varied incidents of Risk Allah’s chequered and prosperous life. There is this resemblance, which is very prominent, that both the Senor Santillano and the modem Greek of the late Mr. Hope’s Story often got into apparently discreditable positions; but luck and subtlety and a re markable fortune slwayß extricated them,and they died, as far as worldly goods go, pros perous and thriving gentlemen, scarcely scratched by the picaresque as well as pic turesque events ot a stormy and stirring life. Risk Allah was a Syrian, bom in the Leba non, of a respectable family—we use his ad vocate’s biography, as well as his own auto biography, throughout. He passed his youth in ancient Damascus, the very place of all others to train the Bubtle Oriental in tellect His first patron was a person no less distinguished than one of the first soldiers of the age, gallant Lord Strathnaim. The Sy rian of the day, like the Greek of the day, reproduces the ancient type of char acter under new conditions. In old limes the busy, scheming, active, intellec tual Syrian ot the Romano-Hellenic comic drama contrasts finely with the slow intellect Ofßome. __Thcre is.no reason “to suppose that - the supple cosmopolitan Antiochene or Da mascene of the first century is not reproduced as to national character in the Syrian gentle man of the nineteenth. Syrus in Thamesin dqfuxit Orontes; Risk Allah came to Eng land to study medicine, and to push his for tune, and succeeded. He got into some practice and good society, a 3 most handsome foreigners, well furnished with poetical eyes, sonorous name, and exceptional antecedents can often do. And he had the good luck, just as the heroes of‘Defoe and Le Sage, to take p»rt in the most stirring events of the day. He tvent out to the Crimea for profes sional purposes; aud, just like the heroes of Ouida and Ouy Livingstone, combined the prowess of Rustam with the graces of a Sister of Mercy. Turkish orders, decora tions, letters, purstes, piastres, fame and medals rewarded the gallant Bsy; aud in 1857, crowned with glory, he returned to England. Here was just the material for a marrying man. Of course he sought, or was sought by, a wealthy widow. Handsome foreign ers aud Oriental names always get these tonnes fortunes. Mrs. Lewis, a wldowr gave herself to the charming stranger; he, fortune exceeding twenty thousand pounds. Mrs. Lewis had a touch of romance about her associations at any rate, for she had a nephew who was not as other nephews are; he was her sißter’s natural child. The marriage only gave the happy bridegroom, Risk Allah, .£3,000 down; but in two years Mrs. Risk Al lah died, leaving to her husband the whole of her property, except £5,000, which was to go to the illegitimate nephew on his attaining the age of twenty-one; failing this life, the £5,000 was also bequeathed to Risk Allah. In thq meantime Risk Allah, a man of versa tility, Bkill, and adventure, did as a good many other high-spirited peraonß have done —ex- changed the arts of war and medicine for those of financing. Ho was now a capitalist, dealt in shares, extended his transactions,and London, Paris, and Constantinople were the scenes of his investments and speculations. Exactly two months before young Readley came of age, he committed suicide at Brussels, and the coincidence excited so much attention that Risk Ajlah was tried for murder, but was acquitted on the proof of suicide. By his marriage with Mrs. Lewis, Risk Allah therefore acquired between £20,- 000 and £25,000. All his connections and acquaintances seem to have a touch of the romantic —or, as they say, the sensational— about them. We had nearly forgotten some trifling details of the same character. On one "occasion Risk Allah had the ill luck to get shipwrecked, and to loose as much as £6,000 of jewels, for which he made a claim on the insurers of the ship. Everything in connection with Risk Allah is splendid, Orien tal, and gorgeous. His wife had jewels of great value. If he negotiates a loan, it is for a round million. And not only is he ship wrecked once, but twice; and, like Dogberry, he has had his losses, and heavy losses too — £6,000 of jewels lost, as aforesaid, in ship wreck in the Mediterranean, and £3,000 of hard cash lost by an upset ia a boat on the Bosphorus. The divers could not recover, though they tried, all this treasure, audit is to be hoped that the owner has been more fortu nate with the Insurance Companies. Mrs. Lewis, however, was not the only wealthy person whose acquaintance Risk Allah was lucky enough to make. At Brighton he fell .in with a gentleman of moßt stupendous spe cialties,lor he used to drink ten bottles of wine a day, and had very queer associates of the gentler sex. Tnis Mr. Bingham was enchanted with Risk Allah; and though their acquaintance only lasted three months, it being terminated by Mr. Binghams death, so attractive was Risk Allah to this ten-bottle valetudinarian that he was ap pointed his only child's guardian and in trusted with all sorts of pecuniary and other very delicate transactions So Btrange and nnusnal were these events, that Mr. Bing ham’s executors made a certain charge against Risk Allah about a mysterious two thousand guineas, shares, and bonds, and all sorts of . things. As in the case of young Readlev's death, it all turned out well at laßt, for Risk , Allah waß exonerated. We have here quite the substance of a novel; the hero is alwayß getting robbed and shipwrecked, and always being persecuted by false charges; always getting into prison, and always getting out of it; always being tried for his life, and always being triumphantly acquitted. But this was not aiL This varied and ex citing life was to have one grand and crown ing bouquet of pyrotechnical sensation. Risk Allah got acquainted with one Osman, and another adventurer. These precious people had the misfortune to be very notorious thieves, and one ot them at least was a con victed swindler and robber; and, on the principle noseitur a sociis, unfortunate Risk Allah was charged with being an accomplice in his friend’s frauds. But he was on this occasion a dupe, and with all his varied experiences of men and manners the accomplished Syrian was victimized by a more accomplished Turk. However, things . have all come straight Riak Allah has vin dicated his entire character, and to his other snccesseß he has had the finishing touch by getting & verdict tor the mysterious sum — everything about this history is mysterious— r of £O6O from the Parly Telegraph. —AUoßtonlan writes homo from London that Nilsson lias quite disarticulated Kellogg's nose; that the Swede sings to crowded standers and the American to empty benches.

Remarkable Trial for Poisoning. The Berlin correspondent of the London Daily News, writing on the Ist instant,says: In a cause celebre, recently tried at Posen, the prisoner's crimes almost eclipse those of the notorious Palmer. A master bookbinder named Wittmann was accused of having poi soned Bix persons in six years—namely, his four wives and two children! Wittmann had worked as a journeyman for a bookbinder named Pirach, of Wollin, where he made the acquaintance of Marie Gehm, Pirsch’s housekeeper. Wittmann was on a visit at Wollin at the end of 1858 and begin ning of 1859, oh January Ist of which year Pirsch died very suddenly, and Marie Gehm, according to a previous engage ment, came into the possession of all ;his property. Soon after this Wittmann commenced bus iness in Wollin, and in February, 1860, mar ried Marie Gehm, who, in addition to Pirsch’s property, had also inherited some money through the sudden death of an aunt. Tw« sons, John and Paul, were the result of this marriage. Mrs. Wittmann died very suddenly In 1862, leaving all her property to her hus band and two children, of v> hom the eldest died in the same mysterious manner three months later. In June, 1863, Wittmann married his se cond wife, Charlotte Hohn, who possessed some fortune. The latter made her will in the following December, leaving every thing to her husband, and died a week after wards. In April, 1864, Wittman married his third wife, Augusta Komotzky, who was richer than her predecessor. Her fate may be de scribed In almost the same words. She died in August, 1865, leaving her property between her husband and her mother. Only two months after her death Wittman married his fourth and by far the richest wife, the widow Bose, who had one child by her first marriage. This child sickened immedi ately after its mother’s wedding, and died in a day or two, by which the fourth Mrs. Witt man inherited itß property. Wittman then removed from Wollin to Posen. It is hardly necessary to add that the fourth Mrs. Witt mann’s life was not of very long duration. a 9 Bhe died in September, 1866, having made a will in favor of her husband a month or two before. Under the pretext that she had died of cholera, Wittmann had made arrangements for burymg her the day after her death. But the extraordinary mortality in the Wittmann family had already excited attention. The police here took the matter up, and their first suspicions were strengthened when they found that Wittmann had called in no medical advice. WfpSbann was arrested just as the funeral was about to start, and the burial of the body was prohibited. On searching the house a large lump of arsenic, sufllcient to poißon a hundred persons, was found locked up in a chest. All the bodies of Wittmann’s former wives, as also those of his two child ren, were then exhumed and submitted to a chemical investigation. The result was the same in all six cases: a large quantity of arsenic was detected, and therajeouid not be the shadow of a doubt that Wittmann had poisoned his lour wives and two children. He has been found guilty and sentenced- to death. —Colonel Edmund Rice has inyentod what he calls a new bayonet, but what is, in fact, a trowel, intended to enable Infantry to intrendh itself rapidly.

' A Olgantlc Floating Mock. —- The Egyptian" floating ’ dock robeatly finished at Toulon, is described as follows: “Length,; 141 metres; breadth, 30 metres; height, 11 metres; draught of water, one ’ metre, wbicfrbowever' may be' increased-to'' nine. Its total weight is 3,800,000 kilogram mes. . Internally, it is divided into 72 water tight compartments, which may be filled or emptied at a minute's notice. It is closed at its extremities by two caissons, well secured against disasters during the voyage. In its present state, it can raise out of water tho largest vessels now afloat in the course of three or four hours. The steam engines of twenty-five horse-power each woik a system of rotary pumps, which, by means of tubes, can empty any compartment at pleasure. This dock has been tried several times; on one occasion it raised four* Brazilian despatch boats together, and on another, two clippers, one of twelve hundred, and the other of six hundred tons, so that it may be consid ered equal to any task of the kind.

Tho ceremony of laying the corner-stone was per formed by Rev. Dr. Mann, who was assisted by Rev. Doctors Voegelbach, Spaeth. Meisser, Vosseler, Rib, Recke, Schafer, Seise, Kunkelman and Waters. The choir was composed of members ot the choirs belong ing to St. Michael's, Zion, St. PauiV, St. Jacobus', St. Johnnne's, and Emmanncl Lutheran churches.

Published every Saturday by WINSLOW & SON, S4LDock Street, PIIILAOLLrIIIA. C^JERK Christina. Siliion. ITramUted for the Cincinnati Commercial.) Christina NUaaon, the young Swedish can tatrice, who will visit the United States next fell, and whom many excellent musical. critics have unhesitatingly pronoupped fully equal to Jenny Lind, is ot very humble descent, and M. Mahalin draws in his spicy work "Lea joliea actricea de Paris," the following interesting sketch of her past life: “It is snowing. The skies, all black as they arc with night and cold,-commence turning gray in the east. After awhile the sun rises in the mist. A vague bluish light seems to descend with the snow-flakes. Here and there pines and birches covered with icicles tremble and moan in the wind. In a sort of ravine are to be seen a few wretched cabins; from the snow-clad roofs, made of' bark, ascend blue clouds of smoke; those who look out of the low windows of these cabins behold a flock of ravens on the dazzling white plain. “We are far from Paris, fifty leagues from Stockholm," in a miserable village of vince of Smaland. “Let us enter one of these hovels, which seem to have been made rather for wild boars than for men. “The poor people here live in the same room with their cattle. A miserable stove emits painful sounds, In the middle of the floor. On the ground, in a motley group, lie goats, sliepp and children, stretching their necks wistfully toward the kettle on the hearth. These children are dressed in rags. Under a window in the roof sits the mother spinning. The father, smoking' a pipe, sits in the corner of the room. Every now and then are heard from without the merry sounds of jingling sleigh-bells, or the dull noise of a horse galloping past; a sleigh darts past with lightning speed. In the same manner there appears and disappears a fur-cap, fur-robe, a fur-jacket; then the father’s voice drowns the noise of the spinning-wheel, the seething ket tle bn the hearth and the hissing green wood in the stove. “Christina!” . From the group of the children there emer ges the shapely head of a very pretty girl, surrounded by a crown of straw-colored, soft and silky hair. “Christina, take your violin and go to the bight! ” “In this manner Christina Nilsson entered upon her career as an artiste. What a con trast between the highway; on which she once, when a little girl, playedjthe violin, and the magnificent salon in which an enthusi astic audience how lavishes applause' on the great cantatrice! And yet not. more than ten years have elapsed since her debut. “Ten -years ago a distinguished ■ Swedish gentleman ascended that hight, heard the little peasant girl play the violin, caused her to conduct him to her father, and said to him: “Nilsson, I want to make you an ofier. Your daughter is a talented child. Intrust her to me, and 1 am sure I can make a great artiste of her.” “Old Nilsson, a sharp and clear-headed peasant, knew full well that his little daughter possessed extraordinary musical talents; and, inasmuch as the aristocratic stranger gave him several gold pieces, and promised to send him more money from time to time, he did not hesitate long; and little Christina, after bidding farewell to. her parents and brothers and sisters, and shedding a tew tears, accompanied the gentleman who had promised to make a great artiste of her, and had already won her young heart by the great kindness with which he treated her. Two days afterward Christina reached with him the city of Gothenburg, where a new outfit was bought for her, and where every Dody who saw her In her new dress .exclaimed, “What an exceed ingly pretty child!” Her protector then took her to a boarding school, where she was bo industrious and made such rapid progress that a year afterward she could already be sent to Stockholm, where she studied music, and where all professors and musicians who beard her sing wondered at her extraordinary talents, and said that at length a worthy suc cessor of Jenny Lind had been found. Upon her first appearance in a public concert, where she sang a few simple national songs, Bhe electrified the whole audience and elicited the most rapturous applause. Finally, when her professors in Stockholm could no longer teach her anything new, she went to Paris, where Professor Wartel completed her musi cal education, and where she soon after achieved such marvelous triumphs on the Stage of the Theatre Lyrique. “And what a difference there is between that wretched room in the low hovel in the Swedish province of Smaland, and the apartments in which the cantatrice now lives! “Her apartments are on the fourth floor of a large and very fine house in the Rue de Rivoli, and the Tuileries are to be seen from the win dows of the salon. “The salon , the only place in this sanctu ary to which profane persons have not as yet gained access, is in white and gold, and its furniture is covered with blue damask. It has only one window, and three doors; that on the right leads to the bedchamber of the mistress, that on the left to the room of the lady of company, and the third com municates with a passage leading to the ante room. “The mantle-piece is made of Parian mar ble,and so beautifully wrought are the bronze ornaments on it that it cannot but delight the eyes of all lovers of the style of Louis the Fifteenth. There is, however, nothing at all of those little knicknacks indicating the coco dette or coquette. Against the wall, oppo site to the window, stands a piano; beside it a sofa and a gueridon. The piano is loaded with music books; the sofa and gueridon are loaded with bouquets. “The hands of the clock point to mid night “Before the piano sits a youfcg lady. Her dress, tasteful, though simple, reaches up to the throat Her Band, with the shapely, though somewhat long fingers, touches the keys of the instrument, while her eyes wan der about the room, and are fixed now on her handsome slippers, now on the window cur tains, through which the gas-lights of the Rue de Rivoli are to be seen. “She is absorbed in deep reflections ; she seems to listen for something in her past. Does she not, perhaps, think of the immortal masters to whose compositions she has just given expression ? “No, she calls to mind the Childhood ; she hears again those words which speak more impressively to her' heart and soul than the music of Mozart: “ ‘Christina, take your violin, and go to the bight!” A. Strange Story. The Telegraph extracts from a petition to the House of Commons a singular story relat ing to one John Parsons, convict No. 3,94?, now under sentence of penal servitude in Pentonville prison. If somebody had caught Noah’s raven when it was wandering up and down the world, and clapped it - into a cage, the bird would be the analogue of “No. 3,942." At nineteen years of age he was.tried and convicted for the heinous offence of bur glary, and sentenced to fifteen years transpor tation. He served three of his fifteen years within gaol in England, pnd was then shipped to Western Australia, where he passed an • other four years and a half in the S van River vconvict prison.- Having behaved well there, he ''obtained a ticket of leave, which enabled him to become servant to the brother of the commandant of the prison. Here again he lived an exemplary life, so that his master gave him acertificate ofgood conduct,and he was set at liberty with a pardon, after having thus passed ten years out of the fifteen! He ssys in.his petition that he lost the document granting his pardon, but ibat he believes it gave him permission to go to any part of her Majesty’s dominions, except the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Act ing under this belief, according to his own account, be went to Adelaide, and there he was immediately recognized a 9 a pardoned convict, and taken before a bench of magis trates, who informed him that he must get out O'f Adelaide within seven days, or be sent to prison for three years. Port after port re fused him entrance. Adelaide cast him out upon Melbourne. Melbourne ejected him, and turned him over to Singapore; Singapore would have nothing to do with him, and drove him on board the Valvisb, which to. .be. bound. ..for "London ; so to London he came. If his story is true, and the man’s veracity can be readily tested, he Beems to have had no other choice than prison or suicide. Of course no one can blame these proud young Australian colonies for sternly warning on our social leavings from their shores. Nevertheless it is high time that there should be some distinct provision for the return of pardoned convicts from the colonies. They ought to be helped and directed to spots of the globe—if there be any such—where they may rest their weary and penitent spirits, ana not turned loose to wander over the earth with Cain’s mark upon them, and then pounced upon again and clapped into prison, when, sick of respect for the law, they sneak into the first quiet hiding-place which they see. The Laieit Literary Larceny Some thing: More about “foul t*lay.” Readers of “Foul Elay” who have been curious to know the relative proportion of work done upon that volume by Charles Beade and IMtift Boucicault, may be gratified, by the developments made In the following letter published in the PaU Mall Gazette; "To the Editor of the Pall Mail Ga zette : Bin—ln your impression cf yesterday I observed a letter referring to the drama of. ‘Foul Play,’ by Messrs. Reade and Bouci cault, and speculating as to what would be the validity of a marriage contracted in a desert island by two of the characters, Helen Rolleston and Robert Penfold, an English clergyman, under circumstances described in the drama. lam unable myself to give an opinion on the legal point, but perhaps by re ferring to the precedent I may facilitate the deliberations of more competent persons. “Owing to the very few teceift discoveries of uninhabited islands in real life, I am obliged to seek my precedent in the pages of fiction. The only one I Can conveniently place my hand upon is not exactly analogous in char acter, inasmuch as the male contracting par ty is a French marquis instead of an English clergyman, and the scene of the wedding a deters part of Africa, instead of a newly-dis covered island; but Btill thqje is a sufficient re semblance in the circumstances attending the suppositious marriage in each case to render the French one worth quoting. “I select the following incidents (forming part of a complicated plot) from a drama by Messrs. N. Fournier & Meyer, entitled ‘Le Portefeuille Rouge,’ produced at the Theatre Beaumarchais for the first time on the 16th of February, 18G2: “A certain M. Maurice, who afterward turns ont to be the Marqois de Rochebrune, has been sentenced to the galleys for murder . and robbery. He escapes from Brest-iu a small fishing vetse!, and is picked up many miles from land in a dying condition by a fri gate commanded by the Comte de Kerveguen. On board this frigate is the Count’s daughter Helene, who recognizes in Maurlee a gentle man who has haunted her footsteps in the Tuileries, at mass and elsewhere, and for whom, notwithstanding they have never in terchanged a word, she has conceived a sen timental pasßion. The ship’s doctor, who has served at Brest, identifies Maurice as an escaped convict, and the first impulse of the Count de Kerveguen is to j hang him at the yard-arm; but j yielding to his daughter’s entreaties, he spares his life, resolving to hand him over to the j proper authorities at the first French port at ; which he might arrive. The vessel however, j is wrecked, and Maurice, Heline and a ‘ comic sailor, contrived to reach an unin- j habited part of the coast of Africa, where they j remained for six months with no other society j than that of an onrang-outang. Maurice con- i vinces II elene that he is innocent of the crimes ■ imputed to him, and their love, conceived j even before their aotual acquaintance com- | menced, having ripened under the burning : bun of Africa, they mutually resolve to conse- j crate to each other the remainder of their ex- ; istence in the following terms: j “ ‘Helene —I am an orphan, Maurice! for if j my father had been alive he would have sought me before this. Free, therefore, from all ties, in the presence of this sublime nature and its Creator, I swear, Maurice, to be your wife.’ “ ‘Maurice—And I receive your vows upon my knees, swearing to consecrate my life to you. Now come what will,' Ac. “Shortly after this somewhat irregular mar riage ceremony, the Comte de Kerveguen, who has also been saved from a watery grave, arrives on (he coast in search of his daughter, and, notwithstanding Helene’s remonstrances, persists in Carrying her off, leaving Mau rice, whose marital claims he declines to recognize, behind on the desert scene of his wedded life.. “For a time Mauriee is unheard of; but just as a certain M. de Folbert, whq has kindly consented to overlook the African in cidents and their results —a fine little boy—is about to lead Helene to the altar (a circum cumstance which shows that at all events the validity of her first marriage was question-" able.) Maurice again turns up, announces his proper rank and name, convicts the would-be bridegroom of the crime for which he (Maurice) had been unjustly condemned, obtains a free pardon, and,, let us hope, for it is not stated in the drama, takes the proper steps to legalize his union with Helfine. ■“lf the quotation of this precedent fail to throw much light upon the legal question raised by your correspondent, it may serve, at least, xo expose the cruel way in which French authors are apt to anticipate and caricature the most original ideas of our most r B of her original writers. “I am, sir, your obedient servant, M. “June 27, 18G8.” ROBERT M.
