[Special Dispatch to the Missouri Democrat.) OnicaGo, Oct. §.—An adthentic repor that the representative of the Lincoin estate found on deposit in one of the Departments at Washington theaum of 875,000 in Government securities to the credit of the martyred Presi- ident. When Mr Lincoln left Springfield for Washington he informed his intimate friends that his Springtield property was worth s16- 100. As $25,100 was voted to Mrs. Lincoln by Congress, it is safe to say that she nad over $100,010 two years ago. Her conduct has greatly distressed her intimate friends and Telatives in this city, and the most charitable construction that they can put upon her strange course is that she is insane, which I fear is the case. SEa1-ANNUAL Maetine or THR PaTArsco PREsByYTERY.--The regular semi-annual meet- ing of the Patapsco Presbytery commenced last evening in Baltimore. “After prayer, Re Jobn B. Ress waselected moderator, and Re: Jobn Squires temporary clerk. The churches represented were Franklin-street, Franklin Square, West River, and Oak Grove. Keso- Iutions were unanimously adopted, that the Presbytery of the Patapsco appoint at its present meeting commissioners to the General Aseembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, and order said commissiorers to ask the eaid Assembly to take our Presby- tery under its care and government, and to unite us with such Synod unger the Assem- bly’s jurisdiction as may seem to the Assem- bly most beneficial to the Chureh of God in the world. That we will greatly rejoice when- ever the time i come when an organic union of all Presbyterians in the land may be effected, consistently with the purity of onc siandards. The following delegates were elected to the General Aecembly of the Presbyterian Church, to be held at Nashville, Tenn., on the ist No- vember next: Rev. A. Lefevre and Rev. S. B. Jones, alternate; Elder Thomas Dixon and G. Ober alternate. The body then adjourned until nine o’clock this morning. PRorosep NEw POLITICAL PARTY IN PHIL- ADELPHIA.—An important political movement is on foot in this city, looking to the establish. Mentof anew party. The matier is in the bands oi active Conservative Republicans, who propose to commence active operations and to enter the next campaign prepared to battle yigorously in supportot principles that, itis thought, will bring the masses to them. Several gentlemen who have heretotore acted with the Radicals, but who do not endorse the negro equality platform, were waited upon to-day and asked to give the New Uitizeus Party, which js the name proposed. their su: port. It isthe intention of the iuaugurato to exclude fanatics like Kelley, and to place before the public for their support those wuo bave not been extremists on either side. The soldiers will not be forgotten, and # cardinal plank will be the recognition of their claims, which the Radicals have ignored.—Cor. VY. Heraid, October 10. RattroaD Convention.—The Convention of the friends of the Lynchburg and Danville Railroad assembled in this city yesterday, and adopted & report recommending the apportion- ment of a subscription, to be voted for in the counties and towns through which the road is to run, to the amount of $150,000, and divided asiollows: The city of Lynchburg, $200,000: the county of Campbeljs, $100,000; the county of Pittsylvania, $100,000; the town of Danvill $50,000.

The Counmterielt Seven-thirties_Extent and Dangerens Character of the Fraud. ‘The rxcitement with reference to the newly discovired counterieits on the $1,000 of Seven.birty bonds continues unabated rnis mornirg, and the cffices of dealers in Govern- Ment sicurities are visited hoarly by gentiemen anxiow to compare the genuine with the coan- terieltt on exhtbition to see if they can dis- ‘COVer tn inte of difference not h:therto dis- closed. t @. counterfeit bonds will not beara close scmuiny ‘under a. 0d else, and scores: ness engraving is plainly perceptible. But on omparing bonds which are known to be genuhe, it js found that there are differ- ences in the engraving and printing, which ‘weaken, although they do not destroy, the certainty of detecting the Counterfeit bonds by close com of four, from at least three, and per- bape four et of plates. These sets are designa- ted by lettas smaller than the letters designa- ting the bond. For istance, abond will be found t bar near the upper right-hand corner—justabeve the red seal—the letter A, and immedigely under it, in the a and » ii be found the letter a or B, and in @ C plate the jetter c is placed at the right ide of the large jeter. The counterfeits so far discovered are on the 4 and 5 plates. Therefore those parties having bonds printed from the c plate may feel comparatively safe that their bonds are genuine. This revelation shyws with what consum- mate skill and daring the counterfeiters mast have pursued their Miciness. They were not content with counterkiting one piate of four notes, but made two plates, and from these printed the bogus stiff which they nave so thoroughly cirenlated. The operators must anye been well skilled in the engraver’s art, or they have produced bonds which have emaped detection in tne hands of the most thorough experts. So perfect is the resemblance that had it not been for the duplicatien of numbers the fraud might not even now have been discovered at the Treasury Department; and this circum- stance gave rise to a theory yesterday that the notes pronounced counterfeit were not such, but that they had been fraudulently printed fom genuine plates m the Treasury Depart- ment. The description given by authority of the Solicitor of the Treasury, states that the red seal is larger in the counterfeit than it is in the genuine, 1t will be found that this is of the same size on the counterfeit bond as it ison the Legal Tender Notas, from which the oper- Alors doubtless copied. We desire to caution private holders of 31.000 Seven-tnirty Bonds against being too confident of their ability to detect the counterfeits with- ou: the aid of experts. In all cases of doubt a little trouble should be taken to ascertain the truth, and in this way the labors of the detec- tives who have thismatier in charge will be lightened. Holders shouid observe whether heir bonds are from the A, B or plates, by the instrac- tions given above, and if from the A and B late, whether the numbers areincluded with- in the 16,000 or 22,000, which are already known to have been duplica: It is as yet impossible to say to what extent these conaterfeits hare been “shoved.” Large dealers are continuslly receiving them, and tardy intelligence cemes to the Department that new discoveries of counterteit bonds have been made Mr. Clark, Superiatendent of the Printing Bureau at Washing:on, left this city this morn- ing, after having devoted all his time yester- day in putting in train the measures for tracing the counterfeits, and there are now in this city some of the most expert detectives of the Treas- ury Bureau engaged in making up the case.” it is not impossible that the Treasury De- partment has pai¢ the Jane coupon on three counterfeit notes, and perhaps the caupons due at the previousdates. Examinations are now being made to ascertain if thie has been done, and the result will show how recently they have keen mantiactured. lf they were made and issued before June last, thé presentation of the duplicate num- bered coupons will show it, and if made after tbat date that fact will be disclosed. ‘The fraud is of immense magnitude, as is al- ready known, and no pains or expense will be spared to detect ihe perpetrators of it, As is stated elsewhere the Government will not lose by this operation, even if the counter- feit bonds have been received at the Depart- ment The parties sending in the bonds for re- demption are known, and will be required to make good to the Government the value of the bonds.—N.

VIRGINIA LaNpDs.—The Alexandria Gazette says: The unwearied exertious of the press. and of meny citizens of our State, in calling attention to the advantages of tue soil, climate, mineral reeources, agricultural capabilities, and commercial prospects in this State, have had their effect in attracting the notic of cap{- talists and immigrants—and there are now, more than at any time before, numbers ot per- sons from the surrounding States and from abroad, who are examining and investigating the subject with a view to purchase andeettle- ment in Virginia. We are more and more satisfied every day, that if it were not for political uncertainties, and fear of adverse leg- isjation on the part of Congress, the tide of pulsation and wealth ‘would, at jast, begin to flow in upon us. But we hope that such a hindrance cannot last yery long, and that we shall have, in the course of ayear or 60, such & state of things as will enable our people to look to the tuture with brighter pros- pects than they have seen for the last two years. In the establishment and security of ence, Virginia will be the first of the southern to enjoy the return of presperity. Our tion secures this. At this time there is an emigration from the Gulf States to our ys and mountains. There may beinsome portions of the Northwest cheaper lands, but there are a hundred advantages here which are wanting in that far off country. Our Guns IN EXGLAND.—On the 25th of last month the merits of the Rodman gan were tested at Shoeburynees, England. The Pall Mall Gazette says : “Only three American cast-iron sbot have et been fired in this country agalust armor; bat they have shown themselves to be vastly supertor to the ordinary cast-iron shot made in this country, and two of them accomplished on Wednesday what no cast-iron shot ever accomplished betore—the penetration of eight inches of iron, of eighteen inches of teak, and a three-quarter inck iron skin. Theshot ap- pear to combine much of the toughness of wrought iron with the hardness of our own Palliser projectiles; and this quality of tomgh. ness renders them independent, in 4 measure, of the assistance of a pointed head, by which the brittleness of the Palliser projectiles is ne- cessarily neutralized, but which canRot, of eourse, be applied to & spherical projectile.” A nineteen-ton gun was used, the charge of Powder was one hundred pounds, sud the dis- tance from the target seventy yards. The Ga. while maintaining the superierity of the English go: dmits that the Rodman is +-ca- pable of inflicting enormous damage upon any iron-clad atioat.” - A CaLivornta Sra land stage from Virginia Uity, was robbed by three meu on ¥ Desert Wells Station, sx miles from Virginia oe.

Mr. William Osborn, the plain and honest old tarmer whom they attacked and robbed, stated that it occurred about 4 o'clock im the evening, but was not positive as to the exact was standin, time. near the depot wait. / the train, when they him from dtfferent direc. Kelly gr: bi ishe a anite. He protested money, but they told him they knew better, and one of them ran b's hand into Mr. Os- born’s pants pocket and drew out $170, after which they ran to the corner of Ninth street and turned. The old man followed them, but they were out of sight when the old man reached the corner. He had closely observed their dress and also that Kelly had lost one finger off the left hand. Mr. Osborn lost n time in lodging & complaint at the jail, and gave the officers who started in pursuit of them an accurate description, which led to their ar- Test. Shuck was found in attendance at the Vir- cuit Court at New Albany, before which tri- bunal a suit was pendirg fora divorce from his wife,who young ard beautifal woma: ‘with twosmall children. The heartless bu band hed succeeded in procuring the divorce before his arrest. Notwithstanding il. treatment at bis bande, and the fact that sh was no longer his wice, with that true devotion which clings to woman, even while suffering under gross wrong, she appeared in court to testify in his behalf, and comfort bim in bis dark hours of adversity. She testified that he came to her house in Portland at 4 o'clock pre- cisely on the afternoon of the day on which it was alleged the robbery was committed, and remained halfan hour. The object of his visit ‘was to bid her and the children a final fare- well. He was accor panied by two strangers, who waited for him outside tne door. She ad- mitted that he had sent for her to give her tes- timony, and that she bad an interview with him since he had been in custody. She appeared very much affected, and we observed the glittering tears that stood in her large blue eyes at intervals, though she en- deavored to suppress her grief. Shuckseemed to be quite indifferent to the result of the inves- tigation, and smiled pleasantly at the cross. shooting of the attornies. Kelly isa bright and sprightly young man, andevinced a rervous uneasiness that told plainly how deeply he was converned in his situation. He lost no opportunity to prompt the lawyer and aid in establishing & mistaken identity. He is very ready and cunning, and mo doubt, been before such tribunals often. Mr. Henry Thomas testified that it was only three o'clock in the atternoon when Mr. Os- born came to the jail, after he had been robbed, which proved that the old gentleman was mis- taken ia the time of the occurrence, and also that Shuck hed ample time to go to Porland, where his late wife resides, and get there by 4 o'clock. This evidence completely upset the alibi which the defense enceavored to prove by the evidence of Shuck’s former wife After ebly reviewing the testimony, the Court announced that it would hold the pri- soners in bond of $2,(00 each to answer. As the prisoners were leaving the court- room, the divorced wife embraced and affec- tionately kissed the man who had promised to Jove, cherish and protect her through life, a vow which he bad broken in less than two years after their marriage, and availed him- self of the wretched Indiana divorce law to eet her adrift with her children on an unchar- itable world. It almost seems that a decree of Providence bas visited this swift retribution upon the base deserter of his wife and inno- cent babes. Such instances of trae womaaly affection as the above are not uncommon, and called forth a beautiful sentiment trom his honor Judge Price, who bas a hear’ capable et appreciating such a noble attribute in the nature of womankind. A Melanchely Romance. A strange incident took place in New Or- leans a few days since. A man, far advanced in years, had been employed to carry a box ‘o a certain quarter in this city; but, previous to Teaching Bis Gestination he fell dead in the street. The authorities ordercd the body to be removed to the hearse depot: the box being meanwhile leftin an adjoining house. Tae inmates proceeded to examine the box, when, to their astonishment, it was found to con- tain the skeleton or a child, and the skullaad some other bones belonging tothe body of an adult. The discovery was communicated to the preper authorities, and at lenzth the fol- lowimg particulars transpired: Don Ramon Duran, a native of Spain, married in Catalo- nia, many years ago, a wealthy lady, called Donna Isabel Romero, for whom he professed the most tender attachment. The latter dying fter the emigration of the couple to New Orieans, Duran by some means ebtained the skull and some of the other bones of his deceased wife, which he ever after kept with the it care, ereppes up in a piece of plue silk. Some years after the death of his first wife, Duran married a second—a person much Jounger than himself. By this wife he bad a daughter, on whom he fondly doted; but the latter dying about 1933, when only in her seventh year. Duran was plunged in the greatest grief, and, determined not to part with his daughter’s body, had it secretly embatmed and put isto a box with the remains of ni former wife; but, m order not to ay opposing the laws and established custo} ‘Went to the expense of a mock interment.

In the year 1957 an English woman nama Catharine Burdick becime scquaintea in Montreal with a Norwegian, wBo satd his name was Christoph Peterdin, a native of Obristiana, who represented himself asa wid- to” the young woman—a proposition which It would appear she eagerly accepted, very munch to the she bad some gold in her trunk.” The marriage, to prevent any interference on the part ot Kate's iriends, was pettormed some miles trom Montreal, but the pair shortly after returned and iived there, where, sup- Plied with bis wite’s money, Peterson learned the art of cutting and mak:ng clothes, They lived happily together for aboat three year: them. Everything now seemed to prosper with the couple, but that they might gei along faster on the road to wealth. Peterson proposed tha they should remove toa village on the Ottawa, where, he said, there wasan excellent open ing for @ professional clothier. They then re according to the story which the d this morning to Justice Mans- sex Market Place Court, to the field, of the village, and shortly after Peterson one morn- Ang WAS non est at breakfast call. Inquiries ‘were made by the anxious woman, but he was nowhere to be found, and at leagth she came to the sad conclusion that he bad either been killed or accidentally drowned im the Ottawa. Years passed away and nothing was seen or heard of the missing husband, Meantime, the sisier of Mrs. Peterson, with her husband, removed to New York, long afterward, witb her children, bereaved. Here she went by the name of Pe- terson, and it accidentally becoming Kaown to & person who lived in the house with her that she had been the wife of a Norwegian named Christolph Peterson, a tailor and cat- ter, the person remarked that she was ac- quainted with a person of that name and ba ness who looked not unlike the photograph, in the woman's possrssion. Further inquiry on the part of Mrs, Peter- son elicited the fact that the Peterson alluded to worked at 254 Church street. With a bound- ing, throbbing, hoping, palpitating, loving | heart Catharine hastened to the building indi- cuted, and there saw the man whom she claims asher husband. But the man declared that he did not know her. in reply to the Woman on her meeting and claiming him as her husband, Obristolph said «You are entirely mistaken. I never saw you before in my life.” «Will you deny that these are your chil- dren!” asked Kate. “Yes, ma'am,” be answered. «1 never saw you before that 1 know of; never was in Mon- treal; never lived in Canada; was never mar- ried to but one woman, and she | was united to in this city iu the year 1565, her maiden name being Marie (rine wald, anative of New York. Tbe woman was thunderstruck. She could not be mistaken, and yet this msn, the father of ber children, impudently assured her, in face of the photograph she held io her hand that he bad never. never seen her before! There wae but one recourse; she @ self of it. She had Peterson arrested before Justice Mansfield. Ia the presence of that gentleman he persisted in his atier inno- cence of the woman. He said he could prove he was living in CBicago at the time she said he cobabited with her, and sbe msisted that not onjy her sister butothers in Montreal coula identify bim. The Judge was puzzled, and were it not for the photographs. he would hav dismissed the case. As it is, he holds the ac- cnsed in custody until ai! tne facts can be as- certained. In either case it will avail Mrs. Peterson nothing. If bis i¢entity is proved to her satis- faction, he is @ bigamist, and will be seat to State Prison; if he 1s not, then she will have her trouble and sorrow tor nothing.
