Ho was sound asloop when tho reporter knooked at the doorof his cell, but was nwakened onsily, and, wropped fn a blanket, came to the semi-circular hole in tho door, and asked who was thero, Tho reply was, ““A reportor, who wants to talk £+ Wel'," eaid Schocpne. TReporter—I wish to get your story ; tho other + gido has been givon at length ; have you any- thing to eny about yourself ? Sehoeppo—I will talk to you. Evory atory has ‘to sides, you know, but tho poople hiave heard only oue side of thisono; and I wish you to givo mo an opportunity to show the raverso sido of tho modal, * Reporter—Say what you will ; you will not bo ‘misropronentod. Schooppe—Well, T waa arraignod before Jadgo Willisms, hero in Ohicago, for forgery, and I pleaded guilty. . Reportor—What did you forge ? Bchooppo—aA oboclk for 860, Teoporter—Whose name did you sign to it. . Bcboeppo—Mr., Biroth's, I was indicted by the Grand Jury, and was arraigned bofore Judge Willlams and pleaded guilty, and ho said ho would hiear the prosccuting witnesses, and they appearod and told them that as nobody was hurt tbnt thoy did mot caro to prosccuto tho cage. Reportor—Dida't you got tho cheak cashed ? Behooppo—No. Tho Judge said, under thocir- oumstnnces, ho did vot think hoe was encronch- ing upon tho provinco of the District-Attornoy if he susponded judgment and discharged mo, &nd he warned me and said distine-ly, * You aro boreby discharged.” Thon Mr. Rocd got up aud said, * Your Honor, if thia prisoner over ap- pears hero'again oo & new charge, aud 18 con- vioted, I will move that tho sentenco in this case bo pronounced upon him, Thercupon the Judge said tho samo thing, adding that be wonld take tho old cliarge juto considoration and sontence me accordivgly ; and_he remarked, *'You sie Thoraby dischargod.” I aloypcd out of the court- Toom, considering myselt & shrewd man, and tha had 1ight fo go whorover I wantod t6 go, and do what I plensed so long 88 I kept within tho limits of tholaw. Now I amdpnr!entfy willing that my lifo over since should bo subjected to the closcet scrntiny, and, if I havo done any- thing against the laws of the land, I will bow my hond and say take me and punish me, Teportor—Was thnt all you did while you wore in Olecago—{forgo the cheok ? Schooppe—Thnt 18 all T was over accused of. Reporter—Aro you Dr. Schoeppe ? Bcliosppe—That is my name, Tenortor—Wnon did you come to Chicago ? Selioeppo—L camo 10 Ciizago; (thiuking) ok mo seo whon it was, It must hinvo been in May— either April or May, 1873, I cannot toll exactly. Nuw, let mo toll you how this prosecution begn sgnnst mo. I went to Baltimoro; Ihads civil suit peuding thore againat tho hoeirs of the Stin- mocke eatate—that was the woman I was acoused of |;olnonini—nml tho suit is a very stroug ono ogninst the hoirs. They hnve employed tho first Jawyers at the Bar—men hkoTicklo Wallace and Honry Clay Dallan—snd when I got there—that was last Donday o weok sgo—I saw my attor- noys on Tuosday or Wednesday., A triend of mine, or & man who pretended to be such, had rend the sensational articles about me which woro published in tho Chicsgo papors—the Staats-Zeitung and the Zimes—and ho enid to mo *“You aro a sawindler.” I told “Tenls *—thnt is e name—** you rush to vour conclusions o littlo too fast. I’ wisk you would Judge calmly;" and he turned around and said hio would have mo arrestod as & common swind- Jor. So he called to a policeman, and had me arrcsted. Afterwards this man Tesk went to Dallan & Wallace, and snid, **L have won half our case in the civil suit, now you have him prosccuted for forging the will of Miss Maris L. Stivnecke.” Wallaco & Dallan consulted to- gotkor and told bim that thoy would not sustain tho chiarge of forgery. Roporter—Iow do yon know that Teak told thom thav, aud that thoy consulted togothor ? Behoeppo—A roporter of o Gorman paper in Bauimoio has mado afildavit to the fact, and my lawyers hovoit, Da'lan went to the polico ata- tion with Teak, and_tolographed to the Chiof of Police of Clicago, Jacob Rulim, mylllg, havo arrested him, now bacs us'up,” and Rolm zeplicd, **Auything I can do foryou will bo cheerfully done.” Roporter—That did mot rofer to your case articularly, It was to let the ‘Chiet of Polico in Dultimore Luow that if any thief he wauted In Chicago would bo cheerfully arresied by Mr, Rehm's mon, . Schooppe—It did refor to my easo, and I will toll you why. Rebm telopraphed first that ho would gok o roquisition und wend the papers # 110 s wanted hore for embozzloment.” © S tiat, Aud thon bo tolographod * Knyibive I can do for you will Lo dono cheorfully.” That prosuppongs that thoy bad askod him’from Bal tmore to do something for thom. Thoy could Dot suctain tho charge ngainst mo thore— the_charge was unkoown to tho statutes of Marylund, and bow could & man defend him- self ogainst It. I nuked whoX had swindled, but they couldn’s bring uny one forward, and the Judge, baforo whom I was brought ou & writ of ibong corpus, said thore was no such offonco as common swindling kuown kuown to tho laws of Maryland;, that they must bo speciflo as to whom 1 hud swiodled. And when they found they could no: make out o, cago, thoy showed tela- grams to the Judge that I was wanted in Chi- cago, nnd he sald, out of respect for o sistor Sinto, ho would Lold me until & requisition camo Irom tho Govornor of Illinois. LastBatnrdayDix- on came, and made an aflidavit that I was wantod horo for forgery, and my lawyer anid it wad o most remarkable fact that tho Chief of Polico had enid I was wanted for embezzlomont, and that Dixou should como thoro and swear | waa waated for forgery. It took from Saturday to ‘Wednesduy to settle the matter, and I waa then delivared to him. % 2 Toporter—Whon did you leave Baltimore ? Selmnpfi Wednosdny ummm{;, and we pot hete ot ‘clock to-night.

Schooppe—L will toll you. 1 bave tried mighty hard to make au houcst living under the namo of Bohooppe. I went to FPliladolphia after I was discharged, and applied at at least twenty-fivo or thirly placos for mploymont at my profossion of drugglet, sud it was abio- lutoly impoasible, after I had undergone such ou ordenl, to got work, although I wasncquitted. Sad nomulifod attes thp Jury had baenoat only oight minutes, and the jury raquostod to shako hands with mo, After thoy had givon their vor- diot, tho foreman got up and said, **\a ask, Your Honor, to bo allowed to shake hands wich the prisonor';" and the Judga satd thoy could do 80, and thoy did. I supposcd that syould sullice to rohabilitato mo in the ruugflab of tho pooplo. T only mon.on this to you bocsuso my enomios in Baltimore say I was acquitted only bocause thoro was no proof agalnst mo. Now, sir, do Ym think a jury of twelve mon, without thoy bo- ioved_ mo to Lo tnnocent, would havo roquested to shako hiauds with mo, If thoy had believed mo guilty wunld thoy uot kave simply said, * Ho is a0 juitted because thero is not sufilcient proof to conviot lum." Roportor—What did you do in Philadolphia? Souooppe—I sought'amployment for = long timo, but could wnot get it. After I had been around for fuur woeks I wont to a sugar refinery and eald: “Alr.

"Thon I left thero and went to tho Ponnsylvauin Railrond oftice, and asked for n place—for anything to do to make an honest living; and they said thore was no vacancy, but told mo to o out on the road, and 1 might got a placo as o soction man, T said I was ready to do anythiog, and ¥ weunt ou: on the road and got a placo ag soction man,—to raise tho track, sud grade, ofo, and stood thero " ahong - o Irishmoh Ouo _day, oftor I had boon working throg weoks, whon employod _botweon Brivman aad Loncostor, & man from Cumberland County cameo up, and rocognized me, and said : * How do you do, Doctor# You onght to haye soen tho irisbmon look at mo.

Honoeppo—L was Inid up for a long time, and whon'T was not quito recovered— Reportor—You forged the check? Bohoeppe—I was sccused of it, and pleaded gulty, Yes, I acknowledged it to Judge Will- iame, Reportor—What mado you forge the cheok ?

Everybody Lnows that this paper1s not and cannot be worth the monay which it promises, but does not pay. Everybody knows, too, thab its actunl valuo in the market depends upon the shifting ao- cidonts of trade.

Do wo ot sag it in the developmont of the passion for Rambling, which bas been nowhero carried to n greater oxtent than in your great ocity. Tho appreciution of this “truth has boon in a monsure, obscured to common observation, by the mode in which tho oporations Lave boon described. Many pooplo, doubtiess, supposo that mon are speculating on the valno of gold, bocausq it is &0 dosignated in tho mowspapeys; ‘whorens, the fact {s undoniable that of all tho precious mulnls,flold is that which holda nearest tho samo valuo All over tho globe, The gambling with us eprings from the frequent chunges in tho valuo of tho paper promises wich which gold is paid for, Sometimes it approaches to mumgty conts on the dollar, at others it fulls to cighly- four.

This mav bo ali play to the gamosters, but, unfortanately, it is death to ail honous doal: ors in trade, Yet mulcitudes of tho best peoplo are really afraid that they would loso o gieat deal if ony attempt wero to bo made to get rid of this upstable paper currency and 10 go back to tho only foundutions proved by loug exporionce to bo aclid—a basis of coin, Bo far from it, I will venture to aflirm that theloeses oxpericnced from year to yeaf, and overy day throughout the year, by the necousity of lioxd- ine_ agaiust the recuniing fluctuations m th es- tunato of irredeemable papor promiscs Lo pay, which nobody cau bo sure will over bo paid, faF exceed in their gross amount thoso which would for & limited time follow tho adoption of a firm but judiclous policy of return to payment iu com, or in paper at onco redesmable in coln. 1f it could be distinctly understood that o system of action to this effect would bo stoadily carried out byany poramanent monsures, however cuit- tious, and my word for it, busiucas would soon bofilu to assume o steadincss of Bupport which it hns not known for years, and which oquivo- catiug or false promised nover can snpply.

When we sont tha lottor to Piymonth Church why was it not read ? Bocausoit was not made public; but it was intended to bo rrivate, therefore it was not read in ‘tho church mootings. If.it had boon Eub]luhcd by us in its full toxt, it would not Lave oon o lottor to Plymouth Cliurch, but o chal- lege to it Lefors the whole world, This lottor wis_approved and signed by the Committoos from tha church, and rout on its mission.

Brothren, Plymouth Onurch was a pow- orful chuich, and s nolo would seem as an au- tumn leaf dropped in the brook. It should be o lotter lnn'g onough to briug about the desired result.

Thus lotter was kept by them for threo weeks, and was then rond, and an answer adopted, It was thon road in our ohurch-meoting and unamimously ap- proved. A church may orr by appoiuting doncon- nesscs, but when it ntmn’:\am to_touch upon the doctrines of faith we had & right to ntorpose. It was not a light matter that they had to con- eider. Horo was disorganizing power lot loose in tho Ohurch. Itwas for this Council to subduo it, It was o corporate principle in Plymouth Chusch, which was dangerous if new.
