A CASE OF FIRST-CLASS SCOUNDRELISM Betrayal of a Beautiful and Innocent Girl by a False “arriage. Particula: Another Wife in Baltimore. Prodably Other Victims Elsewhere. A First-Class Mormon. The ¢neaking villain who, by fraud insinuates himself into the family circle to break up its happiness forever, is the worst kind of enemy to society, and when caught should have swift and certain justice. A case of this painful kind has lately been developed in this city, and ha caused great distress to an estimable family The facts as stated are as follows: Some three years ago, an individual going under the name of David H. Patton came to this city to obtain employment at his trade, a brass-tiuisher, and being a good mechanic found employment and steady work at the brass foundry of Messrs. Somerville & Lietch, on 13th street. Being in the prime of life. and industrious, he soon estab lished a good name, and gave hi¢ employers entire satisfaction. THE SCOUNDREL AT WORK. Some two years since he took beard and lodg- ings at the bording house of Mrs. Hill, a high respectable widow lady, on 13th street, being convenient to his work. Here he soon after- wards became acquainted with all the family, and, among them, the landlady’ daughter, Miss Jane, a handsome and modest girl about years of age. He commenced to pay great ai ion to her, and it appears was discarded for some time by the young lady, she not fan him at all. He became more persistent, nd took every occasion to seek to win her affections and the good opinion of her mother, who, too, it appears, conceived a dislike for hial from the first. CAUGHT IN THE SNARE. After the lapse of some months the young lady found bim less distasteful, and by degrees came tolove him in turn, which her mother noticing forbid in positive terms all advances on his part, and, at the same time, tried to dissuade her daughter from fancying the man, pointing oat to her what she deemed defective traits in his character. LFFORTS OF THE MOTHER TO SAVE HER CHILD. Tis did not at all deter him in hiseourse, and he sought in every way possible to press his suit. At length it became known to Mrs. H. that they were engaged to be married. She then reso- lutely set about preventing it, and, atter u braiding her daughter far disobed es, @ promise was obtained from her that she would annul the engagement, and break off all association with him. AN ELOPENENT. He soon after left the house for other quar- ters, and here the matter rested. Some time about the first of last August, one day the young lady expressed the desire to her mother to visit for a few days a lady friend of the fa: ily, who lives in the Seventh Ward, to whi request consent was given, and she went ac- cordingly. Her mother afterwards, in the afterncon, haying occasion to visi neighborhocd, called at Ure trie her return home, and, atter sitting for som time, asked where Jane was, (not ing her tiere,) and was informed that she hgd not been there. She thought this rather strawze, but. it occurring to her that her daughter had Spoken of calling to see another acqudintance. in another local'ly,sbe gave no turther heed to the cirenmstance until arriving bh she discovered that her daugh wardr had been packed aud taken away during be alscnce. of the Villaia’s Career. THE PUnstit. It now suddenly struck her thatsomething was wrong and she repaired at once to see her son, Mr. J. B. Hill, who is employed at the Balci- more and Ohio railroad depot as a machinist, and communicated her suspicions to him tlat Patton had ran away with Jane. On learning from his mother how the case stood he made en- quires at the ticket office, where he satistied himself that they had taken an early train. [+ was now late in the day. He leoked into the baggage car of the train which was soon to start and’ there found. some baggage, which they recognized at once as bolenging to the giri, checked tor New York, which had been left be- hind. Determined on following them he took this train just then starting and leaving his mother 'n the depot, went through direct that night, not losing sight of the baggage wherever the train stopped. On arriving there he took a seat in one corner of the baggage car (having previously made arrangements to that cud with the man in charge) and it was not long betore Patton made his i frag with check in hand to look for the baggage. On presenting his check and pointing to the articles he was re- ferred to "that agent in charge of that particu- iar baggage in the corner there,” and on proaching “that agent” he was brought to a sudden halt by the rasp of Hus tingets elacy ing his throat, making his tongue protrude like aman on the ows; Hill at the same time demanding to know what he was doing with lis sister. THE VILLAIN CORNERRD. Muttering some evasive and defiant reply between his teeth, Hill drew a revolver, and placing it at his temple, demanded satisfaction or his life on the spot. The cringing cowarJ then promised the fair and honorable thing, and Hill followed him to the hotel, pistol in hand, where he found his sister very much astonished to see him. She positively refused to return home to Washington with him, and tinding he could do nothing to compel her to do so he demanded that Patton shoul marry her before be left. This he consented to, and they repaired to the house of an Episcopal clergy- man in Brooklyn, where the necessary papers were obtained, and they were married. Hill obtained the marriage certificate for his sister, and a duplicate one which he kK with him. He then lett them and returned by the next train to Washington, with sad reilections at the summary disposal of his sister under such cir- cumstance On arriving he lost no time in communicating the facts to his mother, and presented her with the certiticate of her daugh- ter's mairiage, consoling her in the best way he could. A MaRRIAGE THAT WAS NOT A MARRIAGE. ‘This was very depressing intelligence to the mother, making her quite ill for some time; but nothing could be undone, and by subsequently receiving @ letter from her daughter, stating that she was happy, the shock of the whole affair gradually wore away; the family hoping it might turn out allrightin the end. On Tues- day, the 2th ult., Mrs. Hill received informa- tion, through an acquaintance of Patton's, t! he hat another wite in Baltimore.

VIiGHaT’ TRLEGRIMS, The following items of war news were re- ceived here by cable last night : ADVANCE OF THE PRUSSIANS ON LYON Torna, Oct. 7.—Such legrams a3 are re- ceived show a steady advance by the Prussians invading the east and southeast of France, on the march to Lyons. The journals say th: a general rising in Vosges. “There are no regular troops there, but all men are arou Franc tireurs are in all the passes, and give no qaarter to the enemy, whom they harass night and day. stopping thei tions and roads.

They now demand the contiscation o the property of all who left Paris, for the bene of the national defenders, anc qaestration ot the property of all accomplices in the Bora parte usurpation. The government has been weak enough to yield in some points to these men. THE BELGIANS EXCITED AGAIN. Brveses, Oct. 7.—The Belgian Echo says that there is great activity everywhere to pri tect the frontier. The siege of Meziers and Kocroy, and the French fortitications near t Belgian border, by the Prussians, is thought to be the motive of these precaution A STRONG PER FROM LOUIS BLANC Loxpox, Oct. 7.—Louis Blane has written a letter to the Englith people, which appears in the Oficial Journal of Saturday last, in whic he says the siege of Paris isa monstrous phe nomenon, which will be the scandal of histors Civilization is a prisoner in Paris.

Viewwa, Oct. umayer,a leader of the workingmen, has been sentenced to five months’ imprisonment for inciting a revolt. +eee- The Invader’s March, A correspondent of the London News, writ- ing from the army of the Crown Prince, speaks as follows of the Prussian march toward Paris: it bas been such a tlood ot invasion as been seldom seen in the history of the world. ‘There has been the energy of some Teutonic inread of the tith century combined with the careful preparation of modern thought and science. ‘The rough cavaliers who lead the wa’ are indifferent to hardship and danger. Wii them it isa change from damp bivouacs one day, to snug quarters in a fine old chateau on the next. They take good and evil fortune as it happens to come, live well when they can, and frighten the inhabitants far more than’ they hurt them. Then follow the regular brigades and divisions, the artillery and ammunition, of the main army. Guns are dragged steadily wagons block up the roads, whole nd hillsides are turned into camps, as the army advances. ‘There is no delay in the rear. More and more wagons come streaming up from ever depot of provisions. The field tele- graphed is brought into play as fast as possible, and the field hospituls are got ready, stage alter stage, tor the sick or wounded who may require help. ‘To travel up to headquarters wheu one has lingered atew days behind the great wa- chine is a curious study. In some respects, it is painful to pass through a country so occupied and overwhelmed by soldiers. There are no blazing ruins to teil of an enemy’s passage, no women complaining of outrage, no bodies of murdered men lying in the streets, as in bad old wars of other times. But there ‘is a pitiful scarcity of food and s sullen tune of despair amongthe nbabitants. They have been eaten up they say. Not a drop of wine is left, not a crust of bread. If this goes on much longer they must starve. Take any small village by the wayside. Let a force of hungry, thirst men, rch through: such village, and resu! Food will be devoured, liquor will cisappe: the people will groan over their losses, as well they may, poor souls! Yet with remembrance of what has been in war, and of what might be again, these villagers are rather to be congratulated that they live in ike ours. The dreaded foe has been them. and this is all that has been done. To vel up from the rear to the front of the invading army gives a better notion of the vast scale of the operations against Paris than any one sight along the front. These whoie dis- triets occupied by foreign troops, these ditterent corps scattered over the country far and wide, are deeply suggestive. et — = is 4 Baxk Resvonsisie FoR THE SAreTYy or MONEY LEFT Im ITs CHARGE?—At present termor the Sai Supreme Court ard Oyer and Terminer, case of Patrick Huilliban sgairst tbe First National Bank of a This was an action red States bonds tor Uj ime boncs miesing and all trace of the same was lot.
