Special Correspondence of Tar Evextne STAR. PHILADELPHIA, August 19. There is one element in this charming centen- nial city that has during the past week regarded the condition of the stricken Executive with an interest sympathetic with, but at the same time separate from. the universal anxiety and mourn- fal sentiments which have affected the general community. I refer to members of the rowing circles who, outside of the common alarm which all have experienced in the change in the Presi- dent’s condition, have speculated among them- selves as to how his illness would affect the meeting of the national association of amateur carsmen. which is to take place on the Potomac on the 9th and 10th of next month. PHILADELPHIA AN AQUATIC CITY. Philadelphia is peculiarly an aquatic city, and many of her young men are identified with the navy of the Schuylkill, while her citizens gen- erally manifest a remarkable interest in their welfare and position in the aquatic world. No- thing more is needed to convince the stranger of this than to visit the banks of the romantic Schuylkill river in our beautiful Fairmount park, and there thenumbers ofpicturesque little boat houses, which dot the shore all along as far up as caged lar Wissahickon; and to view the bosom of the river on these bright summer days, and see the scores of shells, barges, gigs and ‘other boating vehicles, darting here and there, or speeded by muscular forms and brawny arms over the popular racing courses. SOMETHING ABOUT THE QUAKER CITY BOAT cLUBs. We have here what are known as the clubs of the Schuylkill navy, the clubs below the dam, and the Fairmount boat club, which, while located near the Schuylkill house, are not mem- bers ofthe navy. The former are composed of gentlemen's sons, clerks and young business men—amateurs—who apparently maintain a strict adherence to “caste” the first element of their corporate existence. The below the dam clubs are composed of professionals, or those who have rowed for money, and the Fairmounts, while also amateurs, are workingmen. They have strong teams among them, and barring professionals entirely, could work a partial or complete mastery over some of their rivals further up the river; but the iatter rule them out on every occasion, and will not countenance anything which will promise an exchange of skill or social intercourse or entrance within the sacred precincts of “the navy.” The question has frequently been asked, “Why does the navy never haye an open regatta?” Ask a member of a Schuylkill club, and he will intimate, in a vague sort of way, that it is a question of social distinction; but there is some provocation for the inference that it is a question of skill and muscle and supremacy in the several navy regattas. I do not h to detract a mite from theSchuyl- kill navy, but simply to express a sentiment which is growing here, that it should be culled of suspected professionals and the Fairmounts | admitted to full fellowship, although the latter have not made any overtures in this direction. OARSMEN WHO WILL COME TO WASHINGTON. In the national meeting both the navy and the Fairmount club will be represented at the national regatta in your city in_ the four-oared and senior single events. For the latter young Dempsey, of the Fairmount club, has already been entered, and he comes to the national cap- ital with a good chance in the championship single contest, and Mumford. of New Orleans, who won the prize at Saratoga in ‘79 and here last year, will find in him no mean competitor. It is true that the fact that Mumford will reta the amateur championship prize this year if he is successful will lend additional interest to the event. Holmes and Kirby, of Providence, will also be in, and while few doubt the abi of Holmes to make a winning chance fight few think he will do it. and that young Kirby will carry the-trophy back with him to the land states. i the Boston Her y expects much of Dempsey. three months azo defeated this sa is land man and brought from Newark the prize of the Passaic River Rowing A. Junior singles, for which both he and Kirby were entered. In that event the Philadelphian defeated the Providence man in the trial heat with the exceptional record of 9:10. The time of tlie seniors that day was 9:10!4, and Demp- sey’s effort was the best of the day. DEMPSEY is a stalwart young Philadelphian, of 21 years, and rows at 138 pounds. His first appearance was in the junior singles in the national regatta here last year, which was won by Mumford. He has never appeared in senior singles before. but has been in training for several days coached by Dan Gallanaugh, the Canadian trainer, and his friends are sanguine of his success. He has ordered a new shell from Rudduck, of Boston, which will be 30 feet by 11 inches, and will weigh 28 pounds. In rowing Dempsey makes a very long stroke and recovers quickly. He takes the water with a snap and pulls foreibly and with telling effect from the beginning to the finish, and his success lies in his remarkable staying qualities. He rows with the latest Davis improvements—oars, swivel and slide. The oar is popularly known as the “‘cheese- cutter,” is very similar in design to a meat cleaver, and those who use them claim that they give more force with less exertion than either of the old styles or the spoons. THE FAIRMOUNTS will also be represented in the four-oared race by a strong crew, consisting of J. Boyer, stroke: J. McLaughlin, No. 2; Wm. Browneil, No. 3, and J. McMullin, bow. With close practice this four will make strong competitors for the old west- ern crews, who are bound to put in an appear- ance at the capital and do some tall rowing. THE SCHUYLKILL NAVY will be represented in the senior singles Frank Henderson of the Quaker Citys, who, with Frank McBeath, in double-scull, made the fastest time on record (8:18), at. Detroit in '79. Henderson is by far the best sculler in the nay vs having won the championship singles twice, and he has been in the champion four-oared crew on seyeral occasions. He has also rowed at Troy, N.Y., Detroit, Saratoga, Wilkesbarre. Newark and Reading, and won in the last Schuylkill annual regatta. He is a veteran compared to Dempsey, and is well known in national rowing circles. In fours the navy will be represented by the “ champion” crew of the Crescent club, in which the veteran, C. Steele, is bow, M. W. Phillips No. 2, C. Tasker No. 3, and C. Hallowell stroke. This team, with the exception of the college crew, is the strongest in the Schuylkill navy, and in the last annual regatta of the national association, they led the Wyandotte and came in a fair second to the cele- brated Hillsdale four of Michizan. Since it has been stated that the Hillsdale are to meet them in Washington, in view of their improvement, there are not a few Philadelphia admirers who will back the home team next month on the Potomac heavily. These are all the centennial oarsmen, who have so far indicated an intention of competing at Washington, but there are other crews in good form, who are seriously thinking of such a course, and at some near day I will give you the result of the agitation.

Sporrep Tar’s Opsequres.—A the agency details of the ive the * of the chi placed FGF Es 5 oF ESecE ie i itl i i sociation in the | of Aliases, and Marry’ a ing as Marvin, who has been captured at Lynn, Mass., by the Pinkerton agency, has been one of ord. Forat least ten years past he has perpe- trated a series of offences of a less and repulsive character, inasmuch as his victims have so often been young and innocent women. Forgery, false pretences and bigamy are the designations which the law —, to the outrages of which he has been guilty; but it is feared that even the most severe statutes Will fail to provide adequate punishment, so art- | fal and shrewd has the perpetrator become by long and uninterrupted practice. E! men of virtue and respectability are known to have been the victims of a mock marriage with this man, only to be robbed and deserted, while several others are believed to have been ror | his pretended wives. The design of the adyer- | turer was to obtain money, and his plan, briefly connections, forge the pames or endorsements of her friends with bank accounts, procure money on worthless checks, and then abandon the trusting bride to seek a fresh victim. Homes have been blasted and banks and business houses victimized in almost every section of the country by this unique adventurer, and yet the whole story of his misdeeds is not known. THE CRIMINAL'S REAL NAME is believed to be Arthur Merritt, but his more recent aliases, among many others, have been Gen. A. B. Morton, Thomas A. Marvin, A, T. | Marvin, J. B. Lindsey, Benjamin F. Adams and J.B. Mathieson. What aggravates his offence is that he is a man of intellizence and talent, and over sixty years of age. Five years ago. under the name of David Lindsay, he deluded two young girls in New York, deserting one in Washington after plundering her of five hundred dollars, and the other in Chicago, having first robbed her family of a considerable amount. He | has been living with a wife in New Haven for three years past, and has a daughter. AMONG IIS NUMEROUS WIVES, in addition to the four already mentioned (the two New York girls, the New Haven lady, and his latest victim in Richmond), was the young lady in Lakewood, N. J., whom he married on July 16th, only four days before his marriage to the Rich nd lady. The adventurer at that time called himself Albert P. Marvin, and claimed to be an attache of the United States legation at Paris. He deserted his victim in Washington, after obtaining money from her father, a cle man. His hasty departures from ini were owing to the necessity ‘of his keeping this wife from suspecting his plans, while he was arranging to marry MissTurpin. About twoyears ago he married a lady in Carthage, Mo., and de- serted her in a week. He then ” appears to have visited Philadelphia; where he was united to another—the _ seyenth—so far as known. In Little Rock, Mo., he next turns up as the husband of a daughter of a former governor of th state, whom he quickly abandoned. Mrs. Nellie De Hart, a young widow, was his ninth bride, and two others are known to exist—one recentiy married in Painesville, Ohio. The names of the ladies which are not given in this article are sup- pressed at the request of their friends, but are Known to the detectives. In nearly all cases Marvin's mode of procedure seems to have been about the same. He would advertise for a gov- erness, and then propose to his confiding charge to marry him. HU!

Marvin alias Merritt, &c., appears not to have been very successful in his attempted. swindling intermittently, for a period of four years. One of his first acts was to place three notes in the New Haven City bank for collection, and by going to the cities where the notes purported to have been drawn took means to have the notes taken up in proper form and in this ingenious manner tried to establish bank credit. His plans, however, were upset by ah accidental dis. covery by the bankers of what was going on. So far as can be ascertained Marvin never at- tempted to victimize any one in New Haven. His policy, according to those who were until within a fortnight very devoted friends, seem to have been to fortify himself with a show of re- spectability to be used in a case of emergency. 4 year ago last May this foresight saved Marvin from. A VERY UNPLEASANT INTERRUPTION in his career. While stepping on board the cars at St. Louis for Hot | Springs he was recognized by President: Sargent, of the Joplin, Mo., Na- tional Bank, asa man who had passed on that bank a forged check for $2,000. He was ar- rested and thrown into the Joplin jail, where he was confined for six or eight months. Now his eastern friends became useful. He managed to secure the insertion of various articles in eastern pers declaiming against the way he had been treated. Marvin had completely hoodwinked those who knew hin in Connecticut, and they considered him a person of unimpeachable integrity. these gentlemen, Judge D. C. Birdsall, of West- port, agreed to act as his counsel in New York Marvin also engaged Judge McAfee and Judze tlemen not less than a score of affidavits, pur- porting to show that, when he was alleged to have passed the check, July 5, 1880, he was hun- dreds of miles from’ Joplin. These affidavits created a diversion in his favor among those who had known him in Connecticut. On t strength of the affidavits, they moved towary raising more money to let hin out. of jail. has since been satisfactorily shown that all th affidavits were fraudulent. Finding the Mi souri authorities immovable, Marvin feigned ex- treme illness. He said that he had had a para- lytic stroke and had lost the use of one side. By this means public sympathy in Joplin w aroused and counsel succeeded in getting bond reduced from $10,000, the original figure, z Morton returned to New Haven with his family. THE RICHMOND MARRIAGE THE CAUSE OF UIS DOWNFALL. Some time in June he left his family in New Haven, telling them that he had business. He went to New York, and subsequently appeared in Richmond, where he married Miss Turpin, cation by the brother-in-law of Miss Turpi | by D. A. Preston, of Joplin. In consequence of a telegram received in Richmond Saturday, stating that the much-mar- ried q an was making a strong fight in Lynn, Mass., to avoid being brought to Richmond, the commonwealth’s attorney procured two other requisitions from the governor Saturday even- ing and forwarded them, one charging the pris- oner with forgery and the other with bigamy. The first requisition sent charged him with getting money from the First National Bank of Richmond under false pretences. HIS DOINGS IN RICHMOND. The story of Marvin's doings in Richmond and his betrayal of Miss Turpin is still fresh in the public mind. In May last Miss Turpin answered an advertisement fora governess. The adver- and i the middle of July he returned to Rich- for the governess. When Mr. Marvin ar- mond the second time he told the Sep i : fi i i i !

THE DELIGHTS OF THE NEAR-RY—RARNESVILLR AS A SUMMERING PLAOR. Special Correspondence of THE EY Baryesvit.e, Mp., August 18, 1881. I wonder that this pretty little place, with its views reminding one of Switverland,—its lovely walks,—its people who have made here a new Acadia,—should be so little known. Imagine a village street, say aquarterof amile in length, 80 far as its houses are concerned, but stretching away. a beautiful country road towards the dis- tant mountains. The be eTy street is so narrow that the dwellers in its houses talk across to the most daring and successful rogues on ree- | @ch other concerning the news of the day, in about the same tone asthat in which they would speak to one sitting in the same room, These Acadians, who look out from their front windows on so much social, qprdial, easy Ife, look from their back windows on miles miles of rol country—highlands, lowlands, valleys and bine distant mountains, with always. aconsciousness of the river flowing between. For ourselves, who are colonizing in the village, there being no sleeping r: rus in the hotel, we look out from the back of our large, old- fashioned, comfortable house upon oar august | neighbor, the Sugar Loaf Mountain, smiling or frowning down upon us always and changing his moods with the weather. Up by the new church, in a grove which they call “The Episcopal Woods,” the view is sald t nbrace fifty miles of billand dale and mountain. (The Catoctin and the Blue Ridge.) ne” we get a view sand the glory om the summit of old Sugar Loaf would repay one foratriphere.

Sunday hei aks like a gala day—people come from far and near, (as we have five churches, ) in wagons, in buggies, on horseback, men, women and children. The little ones ride on the same horse behind their fathers, while the mothers and the maidens doff their riding skirts at the church door. One need not shut one's eves to dream that he or she is living one hun- dred years ago; but on Sunday evening when people promenade the village street, and we see the light and floating draperies so gracefully worn, we are brought back to the knowledge that it is really 188i!
