the iNJim.n iilsbakd game.
A strong ense of thi9 modprn Infamous con
spirncy to extort money, took pluce last week
iu hostnn. A Halliniore merchant was en
trapped by t he arts or the "wife" of one "Prof
Harris or Lowell, formerly known as editor
of a i ntcnre sheet in New York, who gave
out that h wns coming "Down Kast" An
elopement was planned, and the lialtiinorean
met Mary tlmt was the nnnio who was not
unknown in Haltiinorp. at the Lowell Pepot,
and escorted her tn the American House,
where they took a room. Meantime tho in
jured husband took Counsel, nnd a writ with
an n t damnum orglOO.000 put in as tho sum
requisite to sooth his wounded honor.
Midnight was set apart lor llie scene nnu
the husband, intensifvilig himself for the oc
casion, girded himself with pistols and dirks,
anil accompanied Ins ilisti.igiuslmd course ami
a deputy-sheriff, repaired with the clerk of
the Atnericnii . House to the room. Admis
sion was obtained. The husband was iu a

Mary hid her countenance und could not look

The S.'i.OOO was made over in a draft of 82. 000
on Italtimi.ru at tight, mid three notes of
$1.0110 each and the halt imorean left incon
tinently. I he sympathizing counsel received
$100, and the deputy $15, lor their nocturnal
services.
Subsequently officer Ham, of the police,
hearing id' the affair, and knowing Hnrris to
be n practised swindler, ptoceeded to Lowe'l
and arrested him and his "wife." Harris de.
stroyed the three tiotes, and the draft, which
was lodged with a State street broker, was
stopped, and nothing but the lack of Haiti
morean as a witness, prevented him receiving
merited punishment. So this infamous game,
was baulked. Tins swindler got not a cent'
but was out of pocket 5145 to his lege! assis
tants, who will also reap their share of con
tempt. Tho Boston Courier says of the lie
roine :
"Mary,' the heroine of thi- vulgar affair, is
quite an niti-t in her way. Sim in described
being a small, ternh-r, lady-like littlj body,
with qualities equal to any emotion from the
deepest und H ost touching Sorrow to the
grandest fascination every quirk complete :
every muscle trained ; every gesture studied
the eyes now emitting sparks to indicate sen
sibility to shame which she never felt; and
then folum-d to grief's lowest and llnnblest
measure. The oldest disciple of I gberry
could not withstand her tears ; and one'
visaged Holmes and the stern Hue
a little moved, although they km
be counterfeit of wo."
