T HIE LUDLOW street jail in Now York lias been the scene of many an inci dent and could nil its secrets be known they would make a story far exceeding- in inter est any romance. The following two incidents which are well authenticated will give tho reader some idea of the rascalities of the sharpers of that city and the perils that innocent persons are sometimes subjected to. " In the month of February last, John Tyler was admitted into partnership with M. T. Williams, in tho hat business, In that city. A copartnership was formed with the agreement that Tyler, who was a prac tical workman, should give his labor and knowledge of hat manufacturing for one half of the profits of Williams' business. The firm appeared to prosper for two months, Tyler manufacturing hats and Williams devoting his attention to soliciting custom, when one day the Sheriff walked into the store with an execution and took nil the contents to satisfy a debt of $3,000 for plush which Tyler had contracted in the name of the firm, unknown to Williams. This plush had been personally delivered to Tyler to take to the store, but had been disposed of by him for cash below market pi'ices. Williams was nearly ruined finan cially. He subsequently endeavored to as certain what disposition Tyler had made of the goods which he had purchased on the credit of the lirm. While he was in quest of Information on that subject, Tyler became alarmed for his liberty. He con sulted a lawyer, and through him concoc ted a convenient plan to put Williams out of tho way. Tyler signed an aflidavit on in formation and' belief, charging Williams with fraud. The lawyer made out the proper formal aflidavit, under Section 170 of the Code.. Tylo signed it, and Judge Ingraham granted the order of arrest. The order being pi need in the hands of tho Shoriff, was duly executed, and, as well known by Tylor before hand, Williams was unable to furnish bail, and consequently was locked up in Ludlow Street. Jail. ' Williams' wife immediately after the occurrence consulted a lawyer as to what action to take in the emergoncy. ; He -in formed her the quickest move for her husband's release was to obtain two friends for bondsmen, as orders of arrest once granted were seldom revoked, as tho plain tiT, having the first and last say, not only could make the accusation but answer and contradict, the defendant's denial of the charges. Mrs. Williams endeavored in vain to obtain bail. . Tho poor woman visi ted the jail to see her husband on a Satur day, and informed him that she would bo obliged to give up striving for boudsmen that week, as she was exhausted ; but i-he would make renewed efforts on Monday. After she had returned home from the jail a Deputy-Sheriff, accompanied by Ty ler, entered, and inlorined Mrs. Williams that he had an attachment, a copy of which lie gave her, and calling in some men who had accompanied him, began to remove the furniture from tlie dwelling. Mrs. Williams who was within a few weeks of confine ment, was so overcome with this unexec- tcd outrage, that she was immediately pro t Hired with convulsions. As him in as she fell Umiii the bed, speechless, tho Deputy Sheriff and Tyler throw lior off on the Hour where she pai tially recovered, und, drag ging herself down stairs into tho basement was there confined on a lounge, while T lor and the Sheriff were yet taking furniture from the house," It would seem that ovon underlings re ceiving such enormous fees for their servi ces could afford to be a trifle moro delicate in the maimer of their arrests. The follow ing illustiution of another method of proco dine is also perfectly authentic. It is given in the victim's own words : " On a bright morning in August, as was going out of my house to ramble in the Central Park, 1 was met by a polite, gentlemanly man, with a paper in his hand who asked my name and handed me a doc ument. It was nn order of wrest $40 000 bail granted by a county Judge in Buffalo. The plaintiff was entirely un known to myself. ' The polite officer, for the trifle of $2.i, oflored to jro with me to my lawyers, whole the papers could 1 ex amined. I paid it and went willi the officer. My lawyer found, flint, I hut the matter at is-ue look place-over, six yoars ago, and was consequently barred by the statue of limitations and second, I was only brought into it by tlie plaintiff sweating that, in an oil speculation some seven years ago, a lawyer who was dead told him so mill so about tho property, und this person he claimed was my agent. There I was un der arrest for $10,000 bail, on the charge of a man I never saw or heard of, (a Canadian, 1 believe not even a citizen of my country), fur what a man said seven years liefore. " What was to be done ? The buil was too laiuo for me to procure, and my lawyers told me that if I attempted to try the great w it of right, that my Saxon ani-estors wrung from a tyrannical King, the Sheriff would disregard it Vihete the buil was so la te. I tubmiited to my fute and went to Ludlow street jail. After scvrial weeks of imprisonment in that vile den, during which ny lawyers were urging every n eans to rescue me in vain, I finally rie paired of any lelief from the courts, and ap ealed to the plaintiff through my lawyers. My af fidavits were so strong that even he was convinced of my Innoconce, and the hope lessness of his case, if ever it could be brought before a jury, so that he generous ly consented to a large reduction of the bail and the acceptance of what we could pro cure, and came down to New York himself to Instruct the Sheriff to carry out the ar rangement. But here our difficulties began anew. Uur ban was enterca in uie suerin s office, the bond signed, and tlie plaintiff in person approved the ball, releasing tho Sheriff from liability. (To get my bail I got out with an officer for seven hours one day on Warden Tracy's liberal scale of prices for semi-liliei-ty, $5 per hour). But the Sheriff did not know tho plaintiff, al though two respectable lawyers of the New York bar vouched for his indent ity, and Judson Jarvls told my lawyor he would re lease me on a telegram from plaintiffs at torneys at Buffalo. Next day the telegram came all right, but Judson Jarvis refused to release mc,as he said tho telegram might be bogus. If tho plaintiffs attorneys would write, it would be all right. In three days more the plaintiff's attorneys' letter was received at the Sheriffs office, peremptorily directing them to discharge me, but Judson Jarvis now made the excuse that he did not know the plaintiff's attorneys' writing. (He could arres t me on it, but he did not know it for a discharge.) He would con sult Brown, Hall and Vanderpocl, and many were the consultations that were held. They would have to send to Buffalo and see if tho papers were genuine, and also wanted the bond indorsed by the plaintiff's attorneys, and in this way two of the most wearisome weeks of my life passed. "One day I was lying on my pallet of straw (I could not sleep for the bugs), and some one called me in tho corridor. I rush ed out of my cell. It was my lawyer. Ho held a paper in his hand. It was my release. I gave a wild shout and my fellow-sulierers gathered around me, as wild in their rejoicings as I was. Tearing myself from them, and pav ing Gardner his bill without looking at the amount, I rushed into the street, and ran nearly a mile from Ludlow St. Jail without stopping. Then I paused and cried, as I looked at the blue sky and glorious sun again, not dimmed by prison walls and dark corridors, and thanked God in my In most heart for his greatest blessings to man. liberty. I had been in Ludlow street- just seven weeks and one day, on a false and fictitious charge ; ana though it was as false as hell, there was no way out through the legal meshes of our law.", Imitating an Emperor. riHE follow ing anecdote exhibits Ihe late 1 Emperor of RussU in a new a char acter, as well as records ono of the most happy escapes from nn awkward position that ever was cffiictcd by wit and presence of mind. Some years ago there was a celebrated comic actor at St. Petersburg, named Mar- tiiiulf. Ho had the most extraordinary powers of imitation, and was so great a favorite with I ho public as sometimes to venture in lerpolations of his own, instead of follow ing the advico of Hamlet to his players, "lo speak no moro than is set down ft llieiu." The Emperor had a hiU ch.tmliurl.iin.or a person tilling a similar office, named l'o loifsky. Whether for fun or malice, M.trlinoir, while performing, contrived lo lot lly sumo puns against this grc it man, which wuru very warmly received by tho audience. The cousequenco was, us soon as the play was over, the actor found himself in tlie custody of a guard of boldiciv, who took him to prison, where ho ws told ho whs lo be coulinid for a fortnight. Not content with this, l'ololl'sky cither told I ho Emperor himself, or contrived that it should come to his cars that the player hud aetually hud the presumption to in dulge in imitations of his imperial majesty, ; On li its liberation, Maitinoll' went to Couit to pay his respects, us usual, and the Em Hiror told hiin of the accusation, which he denied. '' ' ' 1 " Well," said tho Emjioror, " if you ev er did so, let mo have an immitation of my self now. We know you can do it, if you choose." This was an awkward and dangerous po sition for the pisir actor, who felt he should get into trouble f.ir either falling short of, or ovcrdoinu the character. But the autocrat was determined, and there was no t cape. Suddenly a bright thought struck Maiti noll', and drawing himself up, he assumed i lie exaci bearing and manner of tho uuiic- ror, and in a voice so like that it made ev ery one start, ho said: " l'ololl'sky, uiu Miirtinoff a thousand silver roubles." "Shop!" said the Emperor. "I liavo heaid quite enough. The imitation is ad mirable, but the entertainment promises to bo too expensive. Give him the loubles, I'uloffky; and now mind sir, Ut this be the last time you mimic me here or elsewhere. It is, of course, unnecessary to say that Miutiiioff, who had exj ected nothing less than a journey to Siberia, was too tbid to i poc ket the u.oi.ey an 1 escape so well. ENIGMA DEPARTMENT, Enigma.

The following romantic story is told. by the Oregon " Bulletin :" Twenty-five years ago, a young couple residing in the State of New Hampshire, loved and determined to marry. Like oth er human beings, they had passions, and they parted in anger. The young man moved into another part of tho country, whoro ho met another woman whom he married. A few years later he moved to the Pacific Coast, and in timo became, a citizen of Oregon. The young woman fit ted herself for tho occupation of a teacher and went to Iowa, where she engaged in teaching school. Fifteen years passed by, and then the school marm joined a family that was em igrating from the vicinity of where she had been residing to Oregon, and in due time arrived there and endeavored to procure employment in her profcssion,but met with indifferent success, and finally determined to accept employment as a domestic until she could do lictter. Shortly after making this resolution she was offered a position in the family of a gentleman and accepted it, but the first time she saw the head of the family recognized in him her former lovor. The recognition was mutual, and of course tho lady could not remain. Her old lover, who had grown rich, furnished her with funds, and she went to San Francisco, where she obtained a position in the School De partment of that city. - About eighteen months ago tho wife of the gem Ionian died, after having been in fceblo health for some years. After a while the widower wrote to his flame, telling her of his loss, She replied with a letter of oousolal ion, and a correspondence sprang up between them, and finally tho widower made a proposal to the lady to bury old dif ferences, and consumato the engagement of their voiumcr days. Tlie woman, who had loved so steadily and so long, signified her willingness, and a couplo of months ayo our friend proceeded to San Francisco and led his first hive to the altar. They returned to Oregon, and are now residing on one nf the most beautiful farms in the Willamette valley. Wouldn't Go. A few days ago, a commercial gentleman was sojourning at a certain inn in Here ford, where he chanced to fall in company with a resiectable tradesman of tho place. who, by the bye, is celebrated as a practi cal joker. Over tho discussion of a gloss of grog, the conversation turned upon horse muiisliip, and it was evident that the com mercial "gnnt" thought himself no mean equestrian. A bet was p0Msed by our fellow-citizens, that he hail a horse at home which the traveler could not ride a mile be tween that time and six o'clock in the evening, it being then about three P. M. The bet was readily accepted, and the tiiidc sman agreed to proceed home to bridle and saddle this "unmanageable brute," and to prepare him for a start; mid while he was so doing, tho commercial gentleman was to prepare himself for what the other hud led him to expect would piove "a great undertaking. He was soon losited and spurred, and with a heavy whip in his hand; Hiul looking an equestrian all over, he pin- cceded to the door of the tradesman, which was to he his "starting point." Whilo woiidertng within hisself wh.tt kind of a Rosinanta he was going to mount that could not be modo to travel a mile in three hours, and thinking Unit, perhaps, he might be such another as "John A' Duck's mine," who would not suffer any person to ride her but John A'Duck ; behold I the horse was brought forth. The gentleman's chagrin may be easily imagined when he beheld brought into the street, not a horse of ilesli and blood, but a wooden horse, such as housewives and laundresses use to dry their clothes on, all saddled and bridled. We need not suy, that to ride such " horse, " even a mile in three hours, was even more than tho best of equestrians could lie expected to perform. Our hero did not attempt it ; and consequently, bo lost his bet. tW A negro woman was relating her ex. perience to a gaping congregation of colo and among other things she i-aid she was in heaven. One of tlie ladiesnsked her : 'Sis ter, did you see any blacks in Heaven?' 'Oh I get out t ' pose I go in de kitchen when 1 was dar 1" A Ten Dollar Wedding. AMONG the down-town clergymen, is one who, for the purpose of this mention, it is only necessary to describe as Rev. Mr. Smith. Into Mr. Smith's parlor, last Monday night, a couplo entered. They did so for tho purpose of being united in hymenial bonds. The pastor mado his ap pearance. As usual on such occasions, the worthy gentleman was all Bmiles and dressing-wrapper, benignity and gold "specs." In his usually happy manner, he first tied tho knot. He then imparted his blessing to tho wedded pair. Having done this tho bridegroom pro ceeded to draw portemonnaie, and to plaoe in the hands of Brother Smith a $20 bill. " I should like, Mr. Smith," said the happy groom, to give you the wholo of this, but tho fact is that I didn't expect to mar ry so soon, and just now money with me is rather tight. But, my dear sir, your fee shan't be less than ten dollars, and you may take it out of this note." In that part of the city few marriage fees are more than five dollars. A good many are even less. For this reason the good dominnie was satisfied. He deposited the twenty in his treasvry, and handed to the giver the requested change. Next morning,as if in great trouble dash ing up Fiftli street, Itov. Brother Smith met his neighbor, Rev. Brother Brown. He very naturally inquired the reason for the rush. "The reason? Why word has just been scut mo that Mrs. Brown is now detained in Huckaback's store in Eighth street." "Detained? What do you mean?" " I gave her a $20 bill to buy a fur cape. The storekeeper says it's counterfeit. He detains her until he can get her identified as my wife. Will you go with me ?" "Certainly," was brother Smith's reply. How did you get that $20 note?" " Got it from a couple that I married on Monday night." " What hour on Monday night ?" " Nine o'clock. The bill was given to mo, and I gave the man $10 change." , " Did the man wear a blue coat with metal buttons?" inquired Brother Smith. "He did." "And tho woman a hat with a marabout feather?" "She did." "Then, by Hokey," said Brother Smith, I married that same couple three quarters of an hour before you did." " Possible?" " Must be and what's further, I more than suspect that my twenty is as much a a stick as yours." As he said this the brother muttered something that sounded as though it began with "d" and ended with "ation." Tho two clergymen reaching the store of Huckaback & Co., found that lady consid erably agitated. Huckaback, however, tlid tho handsome. The bill was redeemed and the parties went their way. Brother Smith arrived at his home. As he reached the door step a Dutcli baker was executing a fantasia upon Ids door bell. "What's the matter with you?" asked Brother Smith. " De matter ? Dcre is matter enough. Vcn a minister goes around stliickin' hon est peoples mit counterfeit dwenty to liar bills, den ish tarn noac timo to do soino dings mit. 'em." Brother Smith grasped tho full idoa of the case without further argument A Prisoners Revenge. Wilson the convict who was recently hung at Hartford, was not the first convict in Connecticut State Prison to take a bloody revenge for the cruelty of Ids keepers. About ten years afco a young Irishman of New Haven, named Gerald Toolo. was sen tenced to imprisonment for life for incen diarism. He had never made a shoe in his life, and was put to work in the shoe shop. Not being able to perform his allotted task to the satisfaction of the overseer, he was flogced day after day with leather thongs. One evening as the overseer, Doolittlo, and his assistant were stripping their victim, the Warden entered the room Toole begged him to interfere, but tlie Warden told Doolittle to go on with the flogging. 'As the lash descended, the victim turned upon his tormentors with a small shoe knife he had concealed in his waistband, and inflict ed a mortal wound on the Wotden. . Toole was hung, and three years after the owner of the house Toole had been chargod with burning, confessed on his dying lied that he himself had committed the crime. Spiritual Facts.
