Mr. Fitzgerald promptly kept his appoint- ment. and found that Mrs. Cunningham was no jess prompt. He believed that this would-be a decisive interview. and was busy devising means for ending an acquaintance which had commenced wholly by accident, been pursued wholly from curiosity, and which, from every consideration, be felt must be immediately ter- minated Mrs. Canningham’s appearance was more pale and haggard than on the previous ocea- sion. She was, in fact. a type of perfect men- tal misery. or of great physical prostration She again apologized. by saying that they had « wedding at her house the night before My second daughier.”’ said she, *-fourteen years old. was married last night to a wealthy southern planter ~ He is much elder than she, but loved her dearly, and I hope that they will be happy The roker soon after entered. and said a lady and gentleman were present who wanted the parlor “As we are all pretty well acquainted now.” che said, addressing Prank, ‘perhaps you will bave no objection to going up stairs. There is & pleasant room directly above this, and I have ordered fire and lights. ; Fitzgerald ascended the stairs. followed by Cunningham, and was ushered into the room deseribed by the broker.

He determined, however, to make one more effort to go out regularly, and returning to the basement stairs, set up such a pounding and calling as must have penetrated every part of the house. There was no response, however; and what appeared singular, notwithstanding Mrs. Cunningham must have heard him from the first, she paid no attention to him what- ever; he did not see her in, nor hear a — from her lips, more tha he would had she been a thousand miles distant. Not receiving any answer to his fruitless blows and calls, he returned to the parlor, and seizing a chair, was advancing to charge the window, when he heard footsteps. He waited. ready for peace or for war, and soon the broker eame up the basement stairs with a lamp, and asked what was wanted. «-T want to get out of this house,” said Frank *: You seem to have taken the liberty of fasten- ing me in here “Oh, Mr. Fitzgerald, is this you ’”’ she ex- claimed with apparent surprise. “It seems to me you do not make us along visit to-night.”’ “Ihave stayed considerably longer than I wanted to.

Mrs. Willis made no reply, but unlocked the door; and Fitzgerald, without standing upon emony, walked out, breathed feer, and went direetly to his lodgings. Next day. he called upon his friend for in- formation relative to outside movements, and the further proceedings of the Bond street wid- ow. He learned that his trusty companion had watched the house during the entire period of his visit, and had discovered various appear- ances which, under the circumstances, he re- garded as suspicious. A rough customer went into the yard and drove out some goats, and subsequently disappeared in the rear, and upon examination, the friend found a rear entrance to the premises After Fitzgerald left the house, he k his eye constantly on the door, and, after waiting some time. saw alady in black come into the street, whom, from her dress and figure, he be- lieved to be Mrs. Cunningham. She turned towards Fifth avenue, and he, being stationed between the house and that street, walked on and turned the corner, where he stopped in the shadow of a lamp-pe Hle_ expected she would pass him immediately; but she spent some time. apparently. in loo! about, as if to see whether she was watched.

Didn't you bear soe Remarkable Counterfeiting Developments. THE ESSEX COUNTY ERFEITERS—THEIR MYSTIC CIRCLE OF ALCHEMY. (From the Utica Observer, March 11.) The arrest and examination of several coun- terfeiters of gold and silver eoin, in Essex county. by Deputy United States Marshal Sebuyler Hubbard, has revealed some curious facts. Upon the person of James H. Farnsworth, one of the persons arrested, was found 2 certificate, of which the following is a copy : No. 12,646. March 5, 1858. [Magical [New York {Magical emblem. |} coat of arms. ] [emblem. This is to certify that James H. Farnsworth has been admitted a member, in full com- munion, of the Mystic Circle of Alchemy. M. M. Voukenstei, Grang Magr. A. Moriarty, See’y. There was also found in the possession of Farnsworth a book of some 400 pages, contain- ing the rules and regulations of the ** Mystic Circle of Alchemy,” but principally devoted to afull explanation of the processes of galvanisin and clectrotyping, as applied to gold and silver ape and the making of dies and moulds. t also gives numerous receipts for mixing metals so as to produce cheap compounds resem- bling gold and silver. As the publisher of the bouk ix now in custody for counterfeiting, and the sale of the book is arrested, there is no dunger to the public in making these facts known. It appears from the book, (which has been extensively advertised in a quiet way.) that any person paying $9 was instructed in the secrets, i # certificate of membership in the * Mystie Circle of Alchemy,” and 2 copy of this book. containing full instructions for imi- tating coin and for plating base metals by the most approved scientific methods. We are unable to say how far the ‘- Mystie Cirele’’ ex- tends, but as success in circulating counterfeit coins requires the concert of a number of per- iteannot be doubted that the operators have made large usc of the fraternity and se- erecy which such an association would afford. However this may be, it ix certain that the in- fluence of the book has heen most pernicious. In several districts in Northern New York, particularly in Essex county, large numbers of persons have been seduced froa honest oceu- pations by the tempting opportunity seemingly afforded for getting rich without labor, and have enicred the nefarious business of manu- facturing counterfeit coin. The business is ear- ried on to a large extent in the deserted iron mines of that region. There, deep in the bow els of the earth. accessible by paths known to none but himself. the modern alehemist uses his erucibles and alloys to cheat his fellow-men and violate the laws. Although but a few per- sons have been arrested, general susp upon hundred of others who pursue no regular business and have no apparent means of gain- i elihood. In other paris of the State are closely watching the movements of individuals who are suspected of the same crimes. ———- <0 = -_____ Seexr ry A Scrvor-Roow —The Springfield Kepublican is responsible for the following : Come here.
