Houston, from Cano icd townj ship.' 1 We have learned further ‘pa j ioulars of hi* manner of dealing, which throw additional lightupoh his transactions. Whiitj, in some respects ha was a bungler, in the main he con ducted his affairs with as much -expedition, and withal *with so mooli shrewdness tES to succeed in deceiving tbe most cautious of. onr business men. In this be nae aided by i his -previous good character, and his respectable connec tions. ' : w - It appears that bis first attempt* was in the matrimonial line. "Last fail be' became ena mored of the strong box of one-of l iic wealthi est farmers in the county, who resiles in-Cbn cord township; and, as there was e marriage able daughterjin the family, he coo'.iluded that tbe shortest route to the treasures (f the far mer was by way of tbe hymenial • altar. He, therefore, set himself to work tc ingratiate himself into the affections of the {parents, and succeeded so well that when he {deposed an alliance he secured a prompt acae tanee from them, and a hearty co-operation o their part in hie efforts to obtain tbe consent the daugh ter. , She, however, could not “b‘ iit in those lamps,-" "as Artemus Ward would i »y, and had tabes "a strong dislike, to her suitor. This made no difference with him, for ,ho had re ceived the consent of her parents, and was con fident that with continued attentions, and, if necessary, with gentle force, the maiden might be brought to a realization of the honor con ferred upon her by tbe offer of hfe-hand. Measures were takento overcome her obsti nacy, and at last the key was, tanned.upon her and ehe founS herself a prisoner So her room. Fearing that this betokened still,-Norther vio lencB( she determined to escape, knd one dark tight in September, by the as£dance of a domestic, she succeeded. • The," heroic girl, fearing to take the highway lest *i se should be pursued and overtaken, took to thii woods, and, after - incredible endurance of I ardship, she reached the end of her thirty a ties’ tramp, and found herself in Dubuque. She applied tar Sheriff Mahony for protection' and,- on her knees, with tears streaming dow£ her efaeeks, begged him to save her from a fjot e worse than death, protesting all the while.that she would sooner take her own iife than submit to the persecutions of Houston. Mr.’ Mahony gave her shelter for three months, and although her father and mother frequently osSed to induce her to- return home, she stdutly*refused. In December the girl left Mft Mahoay and went to the sister's where she now Houston called to~ see her shortly after ter escape to this city, bat she refused to see' him, and Mr. Mahony warned him to keep iwi y' on penalty of being arrested and looked „uj;/ During all this time Houston was fepfest ating himself variously as runner fora wholcsa e merchant in Chicago, a stock-dealer, great e jeep breeder, * farmer,'and, in fact, an adept - n almost all kinds of business, conveying tf:i-impression, of course, that, be was very hojaest and was possessed of unlimited means. iHis plans ap pear to have been perfected about the first of the present month. He had rented a farm in Concord township, and put in*crops, had ob tain edit large credit at ‘several Stores m tbo city, and his bogus drafts wqra-ell ready for presentation for discount at the banks. On the Isfof July he left tw?drafts, one at the State Bank, and the other sij the First Na tional, both amounting to $5l, 00, for eollee tion. He met Mr. Andrews'at d asked to he accommodated -with . $4OO fir. two hours, in order that he might perfect'so pe Investment which he was about making, a’ id received the money, but failed to report -until four days had passed, when he left a bogus on New York as security for the' amouf t. He playe/S tbedonfidenoe game at-the’ farmers’ Heme With success to the amount ofV sixty dollars.— It is reported, and generally be,eved to be true, that he wijs accommodated with a loan of $BOO by a prominent dry goods firpTof. 1 the city t for which he feft as security a bogus draft for $l,- 800. He brought a fancy wagon, known as an Englii-b dog cart, of Mr. ■ Cofilnelly, and there remains due for the same some $lB3. Agricul tural implements were purchased, but never ' paid for, groceries' ditto, and through the lofag list.''

It is believed that not one-half df hie rascality has yet been brought to ligbt. many of bis vic tims being somewhat tender on the subject qf their losses, and conoealingtbe extent of their “taking in." It will probftb-y reach well up among the thousands -in the, aggregate. On Wednesday morning the officers of the law were busy attaching whatever they, could find which had been in his-possession, and those who were lucky enough to be in time will un . donbtedly reduce their losses by sales of his personal property. Sheriff Mahoney sent a despatch to Chicago, where/jSooston had ope rated to an extent as yet unknown, for bis ar rest, and requested that it nrght be forwarded to New York if be had already left that city.— On Friday he was known to fie in Chicago, but has undoubtedly sloped ere t its. This is one of the coolest ebd most successful frauds which we have had o’casion to record, for some time, and those whcsuffered naturally feel a iittle tender in conseqt ende of the now 'apparent rascality of Houston's conduct.

We sea'by out Republican exchanges in the counties of Bedford, Fulton, York, and Clin ton, that the Copperhead leaders are endeavor ing to carry favor with the returned soldiers. We have too much confidence in the general intelligence of the soldiers to fear the maohin - ations of the. rebel leaders in that direction. We happen to recollect that, about one year ago, the people of this Commonwealth were in vited to go to the ballot-box and confer upon the' citizen soldier, absent in military service, the privilege of voting in camp. Then, as all Will agree, there noo an opportunity presented to these mealy-tongned gentlemen of which they might have, availed themselves to show their regard for the brave men who have saved the republic. Did they avail themselves of that onportunity T We can learn, the answer to that question from the returns of that election. So, we find Berks, Bedford, Fulton, Greene, Wayne, Pike, Northampton, Monroe; Clear field, Clarion, and far-famed Copperhead strongholds, giving majorities against the en franchisement of our soldiers. That was the way they liked the soldier then. f But on the other hand the Republican strongholds gave .most decided majorities for the enfranchise ment of the citizen soldier. The' McClellan men did not cast over one-tenth ,of their vote in most of tbe Republican counties. • They cast about 220 votes io this county, 177 of which, we think, were against the soldier. .. .If our friends in, Bedford, and elsewhere, have been as vigilant as they ought to have been, they are able to produce the name of ev. ery man who voted against the soldier last An gust. We presume that 1 the Union League of Bedford County did its duty, amji that the lists of those who were for placing free white men on the negro le«el, in the matter of suffrage, are preserved in its archives. Perhaps a pub lication of those names might block any little game of deception the Bedford rebels may con template. - Add to this the significant fact, that not one McClellan paper in Pennsylvania advocated the soldier-voting amendment to the Constitu tion ; and while many were silent, others vio lently denounced it, some discouraged it, and one—the Wayne county Herald —urged its party to go to the polls and vote it down; su peradding these particular faots to the general fact, we do not see that oor ootefnporanes need much to deprecate the efforts of' the Copper heads to worm into favor with the reWrning brave. If they persist in their folly, publish the -toll of infamy they scored up last August. Some of the journals which are published for the purpose of popularizing assassination, are squirming somewhat under the lash of pub lic opinion. They now come the “ humanita rian" dodge, and name their villainy “ sym pathy for the persecuted!” We remember thftt these fellows always choose as a time to manifest their sympathy, the occasion of the infliction of the penalty of the law upon some wretch whose crimes have put him, or her, be yond the pity of virtuous human, nature. These sympathizers with the persecuted for-, get that they are debarred from pleading in court on that score. Here have they sulked in silence for three years, liked muzzled hounds, looking on upon the savageat persecution that the civilized world ever saw—the starvation of helpless prisoners of war in and" by the same hellish spirit that compassed the murder of Abraham- Lincoln ; and now they go whining about the world .over the “ cruel murder of Mrs. Snratt 1” ' ■'/ Now nothing ban be more surethauthis: If Payne was guilty, so was Suratt; If At- " f ft The tiotxa cquity agitator. xerodt was guilty, so was Sqratt: if Harold was a confederate of Boutb, so was Surntt. There can be no stronger circumstantial ev idence than that upon which these wretches were convicted and hang; anti the only expla nation of the sympathy of these traitorous journalists with Mrs. Suratt must lie in the fact that they, are made-of the stuff out of which murderers are fashioned, and are-moved by a fellow feeling. Base men apologize for base actions, and criminals naturally sympa thize with each other. When tbs rope straitena with the weight of a murderer every murderer regards it os a threat against himself. Per haps this may account for the sensitiveness of these teachers of treason and assassination. We would like to suggest to the friends in the several counties composing this Judicial, Senatorial, and Representative District, sever ally, the propriety of holding the several Con ferences as early in September as may be con venient. We suggest Wednesday, Sept. 13, at 1 o’clock, P. M., as the time for the assembling of the Judicial Conference, and Couderspbrt, being nearly central, as the plane. It wonld forward the business of the campaign were the Senatorial and Representative Conferences to transact their business on the day following. This arrangement would afford ample time for the Conferees from all parts of the,District to travel both ways between Sundays. We sub mit the suggestions to the friends west and sooth of Tioga, and ask their attention to the object stated. , : We need a good month to make the cam paign in. j Mbs. Soreatt.— lt is much to be desired that they who claim to be the friends of this unfortunate woman would allow her memory to rest in Peace. Assertions of her < innocence may be very good and consoling among her family end friends, bat little credit is given to such assertions abroad, however true, when ac cotnpunied with the asperity and passion of the defeated partisans. It would have, been wiser, as we think, if the clergymen who attended her had not been quite eo communicative. It would have saved one of them, and Catholics through out the country, the mortification which ever attends the infliction of just censure by a lay man on one of the Priests of his Church. Gen.

Dbqwnino of Five Children. —During the recent flood at Ontonagon, Lake Superior, five children were drowned. The Minor cays : The father, Betbuel Draper, lived on the west side of the Ontonagon, near the crossing of tbe Wisconsin road, was out on the i’Anae Railroad survey, and his two oldest children were away; the mother,an Indian woman, and her five youngest children being at home, and were asleep when the water came into their shanty. One of the children, it ie said, was drowned before tbe terrified mother could get them oat, bat'Sfae las bed its body and three of tbe others on her back and to her sided,- and took the fifth in her arms, and struck out for a tree near by, to which she managed to tie the corpse in the vain hope of preserving it for burial, bat the tree soon gave way and swept down tbe resist less torrent, and in her maternal efforts to save the rest by swimming to a second place of safe ty, the frantic mother felt tbe child on her bo som expire and saw the others swept under,by the foaming billows and bnried from her sight forever. The mother climbed a small tree, where she remained over two days for the river to subside,- and on Saturday reached the Forest* Lauding almost exhausted with cold and hun ger. We have been at some pains to ascertain what instrument of tbe man; now soliciting the public favor combines tbe greatest amount of-real excellence. We have prosecuted this inquiry entirely independently of aid or direc tion- from interested parties. The opinions of some of the best musical critics, composers and performers have been obtained; reports of ex periments made in the ordinary use of various instruments in churches, schools, and families, have been compared, all of which, with singu lar unanimity, concur in assigning tbe- first place to tbe Cabinet Organ of Mason & Ham lin—a decision that corresponds with out pre viously formed convictions received from per sonal observation. —New York Christian Advo cate.

A Railroad Romance.— A young lieutenant had apparently succeeded in ranking himself exceedingly agreeable tb a married lady, ac companied by her little daughter. By and by the train approached the tunnel at Muldrough hill. The gay and festive lieutenant leaned over and whispered in the lady's ear. It was noticed that she appeared thunder-struck, and her eyes immediately after flamed with indig nation. A moment more, and a smile lightened op her features. What changes ? That smile, it wns not of pleasure, but was sinister. It was unpereeived by the lieutenant. Sbe made him a reply which , rejoiced him apparently very much.. For the understanding properly of tbe narrative—this o’er true tale—we most tell tbe reader what was whispered and what was re pled. Whispered the lieutenant, “ I mean to kiss you when ws get into the tunnel I" Repli ed the lody, “ It will be dark—who will see it f” Into earth’s bowels—into tbe tunnel—ran the cars. Lady and colored nurses quietly changed seats. Gay lieutenant threw his arms around the lady sable, pressed her cheek to his and fast and furious- rained kisses on her lips. In a few moments the train came into tbe broad daylight; white lady looked amased,colored lady bashful, blushing; gay lieutenant befog ged. “ Jane,” said the white lady, “ what have you been doing?” Responded colored lady, ** nothing 1” “ Yes, yon have,” said the white lady, not in‘under tone, but in a voice that at tracted the attention of all in the car ; “ see how your collar is rambled and your bonnet mashed.” Jane, poor colored beauty, bang her head a moment, the “ observed of all observ ers,” and then turning around to the lieuten ant, replied, “ this man bagged and kissed me in the tunnel I" Loud and long was the laugh that followed among the passengers. The white lady enjoyed the joke amazingly. Idea tenant looked like a sheep-stealing dog, left the car, and was seen no more daring the trip.
