A LATE DISPATCH which missed our last issue states that Brigham Young was arrested Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock, upon an indictment of the Grand Jury charging him, under the Utah statute, with lewdly and licentiously cohabitating with sixteen different women. The arrest was made by United States Marshall Patrick at Young's residence.

SEVERAL

years ago the hotel keepers

ofr New York succeeded in getting an act through the Legislature, making it a misdemeanor punishable with fine and imprisonment for any one to run off from a hotel without paying his bill. The same thing has been attempted in other States, but without success, and Judge Barnard, of New York, has recently decided, upon a writ of habeas corpus, that the statute is unconstitutional, as in antagonism with the provision abolishing im prisonment for debt.

Evansville "Courier" unites with

the New Albany "Ledger" in demanding that Bright shall submit his State print* ing accounts to the Democratic State Central Committee. This leads the Indianapolis "Journal" to remark that "It would be funny, indeed, to see this Bombastes Furioso knnckle to the 'scallawags, camp followers, curs and monkeys of the Democratic menagerie.' This would be slightly humiliating to a man of bold tnd liberal shortcomings, who has been wont to boot the 'long-tailed crew' out of his waj.

SAYS

the Indianapolis "Journal:"

The Democratic mind is too eadly torn up over the troubles in Tammany to take comfort from any source. Yet we cannot resist directing their careful and prayerful and tearful attention to the monthly bulletin of the Hon. George S. Bootwell, Secretary of the Treasury, which appears in our telegraphic columns this morning. There is balm there for their wounded hearts. Lacerated and bleeding from the effects of the peculations and frauds and increasing debt of New York, it is grateful to turn to the national treasury, even if it is under the control of the "corrupt Radical party," and find surcease of torrow in the comfortable reflections induced by an inspection of its'operations and results. The October statement of the condition of the Public Debt shows the reduction during the month of September to have amounted to $13,458,620! while the total reduction since the commencement of Grant's term has been $264,799,320! But then Dent keeps door at the White House!

lesa than a desperate strug

Even the New York "World" fills its columns with extracts from the New York State Democratic Tammany robberies, and rural Democratic press of the charges which against the Tammany leaders, "the Democrats of the interior give up the Tammany cause as indefensible and hopeless." The "World," which also admits the truth of these charges, states its expectation that the State "Convention "will purify the party "that is,cntoff the Tammany organization and leaders. It is also announced that the most of the Democratic organizations in the city have disowned Tammany, and that enthusiastic Democratic reform meetings are being held.

It was proposed to make all journals pass through the Post Office,— the object being to subject them to close surveillance, and to have an immediate and crushing hold on prints that should become seditious. The pecuniary charge this would have involved to the cheap, largely-circulated papers, like the "Petit* Journal," would have been no less than forty per cent. Happily for the trembling owners, the Chamber, by a vote of 320 to 297, threw out the restrictive clause, and the penny journals breatlie again.

MR. ASHWORTH,

THE

after twenty years'

careful and intelligent observation of the English prison system states his confident belief that, while one prisoner in a hundred may be made better by punishment, the other ninety-nine are made absolutely worse. It is probable that a candid statement of the experience of persons intrusted with the management of prisons every where, would be found to agree in thgmain with that of Mr. Ashworth

Philadelphia "Press" is gratified observe that sensible men in the South begin at last to realize that the severest disaster that could befall that section would be the triumph of the revolutionary Democracy of the Norlh. The South, indeed the whole country, wants peace, and that can only come by preserving the measures which grew out of peace, and have helped to make it prevalent and permanent.

Bonapartist

A Paris letter-writer narrates the substance of a significant conversation as follows:

The Bohapartists "are very lively and full of hope. I happened to meet one, a few days ago, whom I know exceedingly well. He had great influence in the imperial court. "You here!" I said, when I saw him. "Why not? I am always here. I have been here ever since the peace." "Well, then," I went on, "You are the very man I want tosee. Tell me what is to be the end of all this. What are we coming to?" "The old man," he replied. "What do you mean by the old man," I asked. "I tell you," he rejoined, "we shall have the old man back again." "The Emperor I inquired. "Yes, weshall have the Emperor." "In spite of his failing health?" "Again, in spite of his failing health." "Then," I suggested, "you make no account of the Orleans family?" "The Orleans family "Why, they make no sign they have n* pluck they dare not stir and if they wanted to stir, they have no men—no statesmen, no administrators. On the contrary, the Emperor has courage, and he hits hi» statesmen already—all the personnel is there at hand, and his party knows the ropes." "It may be so but there are two great facts against you," I replied. 'The Emperor is not what he was, and the feeling against his rule is insur mountable." "As you please," he said "I give you my opinion—I am sure the old man Will come back again. I will bet you anything you like." "That is a fine way of ending an argu ment," I answered "I never bet." "No more do I," he rejoined "but come, we shall be a hat upon it." "And what, then, is the nature of the. bet?" "I say, that if any one comes back here, the first will bo the old man. If anybody else of the dethroned houses comes into power before him, I will give you a hat if the old man comes here first, you will give me a hat,"

I accepted the bet, and record it here simply because it indicates a feeling which I have found in more than one quarter very strong. One ought not to be Bure of anything in this France but, to all appearances, there is not the least chance for the Emperor and his dynasty. Still, we must aocept the fact that a considerable body of people—able men, too —have the most absolute assurance that he will return. 1

THE

Inquirer. ..

Phil.

W. MONTGOMERY'S WIFE.

At the time of the performance of the "Black Crook" at the Continental Theater (now the St. James) in this city, there were two sisters who stood perched on a pedestal in a position that showed their forms ofi to good advantage, which pleased some of the audience while it iafatuated others. These two sisters went by the name of Bigelow, and were often spoken of as possessing beautiful forms and features. Among the constant visitors to the theater was a man of mature age, a respected citizen of the west end of the city. He fell in love with the features or the form, we don't know Which, of one of

rbese

girls. It took but little work to secure an-introduction, through the agency of one of the attaches of the theaterHe thought so much beauty and elegance of form shofild not go without a proper recognition, so he popped the question and she accepted him, probably not for his looks, but for the money which he possessed, as he was reported as very wealthy. They were married^ but it was impossib!f»for two BO unlike in disposition, age, etc, to live happily together She, in company with her sister was on the go all the time, and made the old fellow's money fly Very rapidly. She ran up accounts at various dry goods storeis on Washington street, until her husband gave orders to the proprietors not to trust her any more. This caused a fresh out break, and the result was that she took a trip to New York with a "nice young man." Her husband stood it for about three weeks, and no longer. So he start ed after her and brought her home, for giving her for all she had done if she would only consent to live with him. Of course she agreed to all this, for the old man's purse was just what she wanted to handle, and nothing else. About this time Mr. Montgomery played an engage ment at the Boston Museum, aiid Miss Bigelow, or, rather, .Mrs. /attended each and every performance, and was struck with his' beautiful shaped limbs, the same as had been smitten by hers while in "Black Crook." She sent him bouquetB nightly, with a card containing the name of "Miss Bigelow" attached to it. Mr? 'Montgomery did not know who the fair donor was, and paid very little attention to the matter. When he sailed for Europe, and had left our shores but a day, he was introduced to a lady by the name of Bigelow, of Bos ton, who on inquiry turned out to be our heroine. A m^Ual friendship sprung up between them on the voyage, when she informed him that she was madly in love with him, and had followed him on his voyage home in order that she might be near him. She passed herself off as a maiden, and Montgomery believed her. To make a long story short, he subsequently married her, believing that in doing iso he was marrying'a maiden who loved him for himself alone- The day after he was married he found out that she whom he had made his wife already had a husband in Boston. It will be recollected that in a week he was to sail for this country, and that he was engaged by some of our lyceUnfls to give readings It was too much for a gentleman of his sensitive nature to face the public in this city with these facts standing prominently before them. ,It would be the gossip af the city and sent broadcast throughout the country. It was too much for his nerves, and the result was that he took his own life. This is given as the true cause of Walter Montgomery's suicide. Whether the wife can satisfy her conscience in the partshe has played in this tragedy is a question we leave entirely to her alone. Her husband, now in this city, has come to the conclusion that ho is better ofi without her, and will soon enter a suit for a divorce.' *,„

Cprresponr'ence of the Nete York arid.]

BOSTON,

September

25.

I believe the cause and circumstances of the death of Walter Montgomery have already been given in your foreign correspondence Within a day or two the history of the woman, whose infatuation for the tragedian was undoubtedly the cause of his suicide, has fully transpired-. It seems that she was formerly "woman of the town," and it is stated that she .has been several times married^&nd at least two of her husbands are living in this eity.r Her ftmiden ndine was Bigelow, and her~father is a shoemaker in East Haeton. Her last husband is proprietor of a well known private hotel. The following additional facte are of interest:

extract from the Portland "Press'

shows the effect of capital punishment in the State of Maine: "Homicide will soon be regarded as one of the unpleasant customs peculiarly prevalent in Maine, if many more instances occur at present. Since the execution of Clifton Harris, the crime has flourished as an epidemic. We believe that none of the following homicides occurred before the execution of the Au burn murderer: The killing of George at Orrington, Mrs. Lawrence at Bangor, Laflin at Hallowell, and the homicides at Med way, at Lewiston, and at Bradley's Hotel in this city. And now we have another startling tragedy in this city. These seven are all that occur to Us at this moment, but we believe there are others. It is to be hoped that the worst is now over, and that the mania for killing has either exhausted itself or that some means will be found to repress it."

THE

eloquent Mr. Wendell Phillips has

made another startling discovery. He has found out that the Republican party is dead, but that it resists burial. Especially, wo suppose, in Maine, California and North Carolina, to say nothing of the Territories. When one comes to look back Mr. Phillips' latest enlightenment of_the public mind is a very threadbare effort indeed, for no less a person than the Hon. William H. Seward announced, in a public speech in Northwestern New York, in 1866, that the Republican party was not only defunct, but that its remains had been swept over Niagara Falls and defaced beyond recognition in the eddies of the whirlpool below, and yet the fragments of this dead and crushed organization had the andacity to elect a President in 1868, and force the Democrats into a "New Departure" in 1871. Mr. Phillips is right The Republicaa party resists burial ia. lly an unprecedentedly energetic manner.—

Yankee temperance lecture? who

went around preaching against the debasement of drink, while his brother accompanied him to afford the frightful warning, was shrewd, but is now eclipsed by Mr. Peters, alias Professor Johnson, who lecentlydid the sensational rescue of his brother off London bridge. The two now run a swimming school at Leeds, and for specimen touches, one of them falls into the bath and flounders as only a drowning man can, while the other makes a splendid dive and lands Him "high and dry."

No AVONDKR that fashion felt the Wow when France was under a cloud. A correspondent of the London "Telegraph" says that there were recently shipped toa single New York firm from Paris, at one time, 600 ball dresses, worth 800 Irancs each 800at 600 francs each 1,000at 500 francs each, and 2,000 at 250 francs each. Over 3,000 costumes, gauzy and worthless, but costly, to adorn a very small selection of the whole fashionable cirooinference of a single city.,

author of "Land Journey from

Asia to Europe," says: I remember seeing in Canton a military examination. A deep trench was dug in a circle, and two targets were placed at equal distances from the center. The competitor mount* ed a very slow pony, who trotted aronnd the trench the rider then approached the target, and, when close by it, put the arrow,against it, pulled the bow, and of course' each time placed the arrow successfully in the target. Three times did he perform this wondrous feat, and then kneeling at the Governor's feet was dubbed an officer. It was so ridjejllotiB I could hardly believe»it to true.

rST

_^ANG AROO TJAIL, anew article orj it !B stated, is now being imported to English markets in tin cans, like Australian mutton, and is* calKd Kangatoo ven&ion. Favorable report is made, ofr its qualities, and it bids fair to become popular. An English journal says that those who are vegetarians because they object to the destruction of animal life, can eat this meat without a scruple, as the tails of kangaroos are so large that they must be an inconvenience to their owners, while by placing the animals under theinfluenceof chloroform their tails can be painlessly amputated and packed in tins before they are aware of the operation.
