In Maine he left his (Unitarian, ) has been held toconsider the expe- | wife and two children at Bethel. His next diency of dissolving the connection between stopping place was to Worcester, Mass., where he won the affeetion of a handsome young lady whom he married. With her he lived a few months and suddenly left the place the eve of her confinement. Her friends provided for her wants until several weeks after the birth, when she compelled to go the alms-house, His third victim was a young lady of eighteen, the daughter of Morgan Stiles, of North Adams, | Mass. This was clandestine, against thé express wishes of her parents. They were married it Vermont, returned home and were received with open arms. The next day he left: a fort- night after he was traced to Troy, where he was again en; itebemarried. The day previous to the wedding he received information that an officer wasinsearchofhim. The officer reached Troy the day fixed upon for his marriage. The hour forthe marriage arrived. Moulton was not to be found. The would-be bride waited three long hours for Moulton, (and so did the officer) but both were disappointed, for he was too shrewd to be caught. He is next traced to a hoase in Lydius street in this city, from which he escaped while the officer was in it, by his comrade answering to his name. After nearly a fortnight, we find him writing letters. Mor- gan Stiles, the father of Moulton’s last wife was in this city- when the latter e: eed from Ly- i He went home to North Adams, and kept watch for all letters directed to his daughter. On Tuesday he had the satisfaction of obtaining a letter fur her from Moulton, who had assumed the name of Warren Black. It was post marked Little Falls, N. Y. In this letter he gives a glowing description of the manner in which he escaped and boast- ingly says he is too cunning to be caught. He tells her that he has obtained a good situation and constant employment and that he has en- gaged board for her in a private bourding house kept by Mrs. Hatter. He renews his pledge of love, and entreats her to come speedily to him without the knowledge of her parents. Wed- nesday night a letter was received from Mr Stiles, stating where Moulton could be found and the name he had assumed. Officers took the cars, and before 3 o'clock the next morning Maloy had the handcuffs upon him. They had obtained the services of the porter of the Ben- ton House, whom they directed to go to Mrs. Hatter’s house, rap at Mrs. H.’s bed-room win- dow and tell her to tell Black his wife was come and was waiting for him at the hotel. In less than ten minutes Moulton come along. The night was very dark. As he ascended the stoop of the hotel, the light from the house shone upon his face, when officer Maloy grasped him. This sudden cheek upon bis wild career of crime and folly socompletely unnerved him, that he speedily became desponding, when he acknowledged his guilt. He was taken back pastor and people. About one half of the meet- ing were ladies, who, i none the less emphatic whispers, ‘ignified their lively interest in the question at issue. Mr. Conway himself was not present, but he had sent in @ letter expressing his views on the subject. which was read and of which the fol- lowing are extracts : is “Under these cireumstances, there is one thing whieh [ feel bound to say. In the meeting which I had with the Trustees, it Was suggested to me as a reason for resign- ing. that there were many who pathised with the paper which I had read, but who, for personal reasons, and delicate relations with myself and my wife, were unwilling to thrust us away. I cannot believe that tome are any of you who would be influenced by reasons which, however delicate. arecertain- ly not honest ar honorable. If any one in heart believes that my influence for guod in this parish. as a minister, is at an end, it is his daty to vote fur my removal. I do not wish to be » pensioner in your pulpit. I do not wish to leave you; but I trust that you will believe me when I say that it is not because I get an earthly liv- ing here. Ihave youth and health; life and the world before me; and the tiod who sent me inte this world is still ruling over all. I am not afraid to trust myself to him, in whose name I know I have spoken those things which have p »luced thisdisaffection. I therefore solomn- ¥ call upon you all, still more those who per- sounily would like to retain my wife and myselt here, to make it a matter of the maintenance of truth, fidelity and freedum in your midst. If my influence for trath, fidelity and freedom is at an end, let each who so believes, counsel not with flesh and blood; there is but one path for him or her. Now, ere you send me away for speaking from conviction, whut I believe concerning cer- tain historical questions of a period nearly two thousands years past, I pray you consider the fetter whieh you must inevitable bind uponthat pulpit. Nay, call mind that whenever my su ascends that pulpit, you and your ebildren will hear his Hee clank at every step he makes.

Very early in the evening it became appa- rent that the spirit of party was running very high. The regularity of the eall was very closely scrutinized by some members, under- A Neero Stampepe.—A gentleman from Africn brought suit some days ago against another gentleman from Africa to secure the sum of three dollars. which the former alleged he had won from the latter in a game of “seven up.”” The case came on fur trial be- fore Justice D’ Wolf yesterday morning. Each darkey came prepared to plead his own ease, and each was backed by a very dark cloud of witnesses. As the cage was about to begin, a wag who happened to be present, took the aarkey plaintiff aside, and with an air of grave import informed him that he had better “look out,”’ as there was a plot on foot by the police to arrest the whole party of Africans for gam- bling, as soon as the facts should be revealed by the witnesses. +-Golly, marsa'’ was the exclamation of the a&tonished darkey, who in- continently seized his hat and rushed from the room. The others, not knowing what was the matter, but afraid that something was “np.” rushed pel] mell after him. The noise of the pursuers only increased the alarm of the pur- sued, who fled up Clark street with all possible speed. Several abolitionists, seeing the ne- groes scampering in such haste, concluded that 8 fugitive slave must be the cause, and joined inthe race. The negroes, looking back, took the latter for policemen, and ran ouly the faster. Where the race ended we could not ascertain, as none of those who took part in i have since made any allusion to the matter.— Chicago Times. 2 the discussion of questions more or less irrele- ~ congregation offered the following resolution Resolved. That it is desirable to retain the Rev Mr. Conway as Pastor of this Society, and that his services as such, are acceptable. In support of this, he said that after an ex- = ce of fifty years, during which time he ad been acquainted with many men of sur- assing genius and varied acquirements, he had yet to see the person who, at twenty-seven. was superior intellectually. or morally, to the Rev. Mr. Conway. Marked by bunesty and truthfulness, even to a fault. it was his free- dom from bypoc , his detestation of al! falsehood that was at the bottom of his trou- bles. Should he be dismissed from this con- regation. he would be turned away because e was not 4 hypocrite. However we might disapprove in his want of his attending pluces of amusement. it was only a matter of taste, and the instance had yet to be fuund where he had abused his freedom in that respect. Id the speaker be shown such an instance, he for ene, would not oppose, but favor hix departure. Asto the discourses on miracles which had esused such offence, a mistaken idea prevailed. Miracles were regarded as Chriatiunity, and not as one of its evidences. A disbelief in them was simply an ignoring of one of the proofs of Christianity. Was the law of love, of which the miracles were only one of the witnesses, the ten acknowledged’ Mr. Conway had preached these sermons because a great many of bis congregation had based their belief on them, instead of upon Christianity itself. Mr. Conway's christian character was beyond a doubt. Should such a man be sent away ? It was also objected that he did not perform the duties of a pastor. but found time to visit parties, operas and the theatre. To answer this, it need only be asked. what he did in that study of his when those splendid sermons were composed. Seven or eight hours of hard study daily, created a need of recreation, and who should say how that recreation ought to be taken’ The speaker wanted 1 i of inquisitorial power. The ¢ Conway would be the severest blow ever struck to Liberal Christianity in the United States. Take him on the doctrines. should the princi- le of the freedom of the pulpit be ignored? Ee denial of any doctriue was rreverence toward the Scriptures’ The speaker had been a member of this congregation for thirty years, but should Mr. Conway be dismissed. he should feel inclined to go away with him. There was a Quaker meeting in the city, where he could could at least enjoy his views in silence A gentleman—one of the eommittee of the Chureb, replied to so: of the statements of the furmer speaker. believed that be had, in some respects, spoken differently, in the course of a private conversation, held some days since. having alluded unfavorably to the Rey. Mr. Conway's visits to the theatre and other places of amusement. In reply, the first speaker re-stated his dis- Se Great Lawyers. —The London News thus begins a biographical sketch of Lord Lynd- burst: Itis a fact to be remarked that all our great- est lawyers are long-lived. On examination i will, however, be found that there is nothing extraordinary in the matter. In orderto en- able a man to go through mount of work which alone can constitute a successful barris- ter, you must presume a physical constitution of iron, a capability of adapting his habits to the requirements of his calling, and an organiza- tion in which the nervous system is not tow pre- dominant. The demands in one who undertakes to reach the Woolsack or the Bench are perfect- ly well understood, and have been reduced to pithy phrases, such as Lord Eldon’s, «that a barrister must live like a hermitand work like a horse’: or the cynical aphorism, that to be a great lawyer or a good Judge you must have a Lad heart and a good digestion. There are a few instances in which successful advocates at the English Bar have for a period triumphed by tha mere force of energy and will over de+ ficiencies of bodily organization; but it has been almost invariable found in these cases that one day they unexpectedly broke down and never recovered.

The women were very decent, industrious crea tares, and very fond of the cat which was, it seems. their mutual property. Some relative died. and left them about five thousand dollars. This intoxicated them with visions of greatness. They dropped all toil, removed to London with their eat, and commenced a grand round of pleasure, amid which puss was always their companion. Balls, theatre, opera, rides, driv elegant dresses, expensive habits, ete... soon socnup their legacy. This accomplished, they sought work; but it was not to obtained. They had to pledge and to sell, ad libitum, their clothing and other effects for food. When all these resources were exhausted. they walked down to the Surrey Canal, put the cat in a bas- ket, entwined each otheraround the waist) pu the puss-basketon atin, leaped into the flowing water, and were drowned as the: Varor.—Dr. Dick. the celebrated philoso- her, says there arises every twelve hours. no ess than thirty mi m cubic feet of waiter, which is more than sufficient to supply all the rivers on the earth.
