OUR ARIZONA CORRESPONDENCE. Forr Bucnanan, July 6, 1869, 4 in Sonora Directed to Leave—Arrival of Caplain Party at Fort Buchanan—Operations of Pesquie- ‘t Our Government Inlerfere?—Outrages om Ama- ‘itivens—Lynch Law—Mowry’s Farcical Elections— sof the Mines, co. \me the newspaper reading public in the Eastern » aware of the celebrated contract made by Capt. th Comontort’s government, by;which the former tvey the State of Sonora, and receive therefor al! tho public lands and a pre-emption right to more, Isham represented a party of heavy 1, moetly residing in Mexieo, Including a well ow known German house, through which all the funds have Deen supplied. The surveying party, headed by Captain A. P. Btone, formerly of the United States army, bas been at work for moro than a year, making ite headquerters a Guaymas, and has thus far expended about $100,000. Since Comonfort’s withdrawal from Mexico the contract has been repudiated; and for some time Stone and his men have been only tolerated at Guaymas, their surveying Operations being suspended, A few woeks ago, however, the uncertainty of their position was solved by an order from General Pesquiera, (the chief of the liberal party of Sinaloa and Sonora,) directing Captain Stone and ‘his men to leave the within forty days, and also re- commending the withdrawal of such other Americans ag bad no legitimate busizees in the State. Captain Stone concluded not to wait for the expiration of tae forty days, but abandoning considerable valuable property and sucri- ficing more, he made 9 speedy retreat for the American side of the line, and reached Fort Buchanan with his whole force, some forty men and six wagons, about tea days ago. ' The company have gone into camp at the Patagonia silver mine,» fine, healthy locality near the Sosora bor- der, and Captain Stone atarted for Washington tw lay the cane before government. Tn the meantime Pesqaiera, with 700 men and ten pieces of capnon, has landed at Guaymas, and is marching to Hermosillo, and from thence will visit the upper country, probably to Magdalene, which is a town of some fifteen hundred people, situated eighty miles from the American line. With Capt. Stone came Judge Rose, American Ooa- fu) at Guay mae; also ex-M. C. Herbert and Ned McGowan, formerly of California. McGowan, who has numberless resaone for not returning to the golden State, goes to Sauta Fe Op the 0th ultimo Captain Ieham himeelf arrived at Tubes, and took the overland stage for Iveson; thence to Sen Francisco, thence to join Stone in Washington. Bomo. thieg may come of this decisive action on the part of Perquiera, He is the ablest revolutionist that has ap- peared i Northern Mexico for a long time, aud has never heen whipped in battle, His ostensivle object in making this campaign, it to chastise the Opata ana Yaqui Ladians, who have been committing some outrages, but my opiaion is that, having geen Stone's party safely off from Mexican soil, he will march back to Guaymas. Gan- darn, the defeated conservative, has yet some stroag friends in Sonora, but he is not the man to cope with Pes- quiel All the vast estates of the Gandara family hi been confiscated, and are to be sold for bonaflt of gove ment, ‘No Americans should go to Souora at present. There is but little inducement for them at any time, and mach daa- ger, and now tho risk is very groat. It 1a x poor country— dry, arid, mountainous and full of deserts, Water ie more precious than gold in mony parts of tho State, aud ail the agricultural efforts are made along a few streams that are lable to dry up during the hot season. The lower Classes, or peona, are far worse off than siaves in the Southern States, and how they manage to live and labor on their sconty rations is a problem worthy the attention of ulmshouse governors. The seaports of Sonora will be @ great acquigition to this region, but with the main portion of the country and the people we shall derive but little benedt. If the lower clasees and peons are admitted to citiz-nship, thay wil control the country; and, as the priests rule the lowor chasges with an absolute despotism, Americans will fare rather hard. A strict military rule is tne best govera- ment for Sonor, until the people are a tittle elovated, so- cisily, worally and politically. The priests promulgate the most dangerous doctrines among the ye tense them that It is perfectly lawful to murder Americans an: rob them. Under such teachings the Sonorians have be- come a cold bleoded, treacherous race, upoa whom no do- pendence can be placed. No matter how weil they are treated, they will murder or rob their employers uoon the slightest provocation. On the 25th uit., Mr. Jobo Ware, a well known citizen, brave, warm-hearted aud hospitable, was murdered by 0 party of psons within a few rods of his own door—stabbed in five places. All the murderers fled to Sonora bu: oue, who was arrested by a party of citizous, After being con’ fined two days, until the excitement had died away, he was brought up before a meeting of citizens for examination. Edward E. Cross, editor of the Arizonian, was chosen Chairman, aud Dr. Hughes Secretary. Tne prisoner was examined and found guilty of participating in the murder of Mr. Ware. A mn of the meoting were for haugiog bim on the spot, but as the American murderers from the Sonoita were gent to the Grande for trial, it was deem- ed bestto dotho same with the Mexican. A vote was teken on big cage, and resulted fifteen for hanging and nineteen for sending to the Rio Grande. Accordingly, tho prigorer wes sent to Fort Buchanan, thence to be forwarded to La Mesilla. It is the last criminal, however, that wil go there, where justice is a farce; for the meeting adogtel a regolution that in future, until law was established among us, we would organize temporary courts whenever cecasion required and try criminals oureelves, Thirty- four Americans were present at the meeting—an unusual apectacle—but the death of Mr. Ware movea us all to ac- tion, Mr. John Waro was @ native of Fredericksburg, Va He hasa brother inthe navy as parser, auda brother cashier of a bank ia Richmond, Va Mr. Mowry bas arrived, and’ with afew coadjutors is making preparations for ‘another of those farces called “elections” in this country. However, there is but little feeling, people being pretty well satisfied that thore is no hope of a Territory until we have more people and larger interests. What we do need is a draach of the United States District Court and a braneb of the Surveyor Gene- ral’s Office, afew justices of the peace, deputy sberiffs and constables. We can obtsin such privileges without much trouble, The Arizonian frankly admits the useless. nees of striving for a Territory, and calls upon the in habitants to unite and petition Congress for a judicial dis- trict, Mowry has greatly misrepresented the country and neglected its true interest, which i¢ mining. Toe mines now in operation here are embarrassed for want of capi- tal. The Sonora Exploring and Mining Company, with ove of the richest mines in the world, needs machinery and money very much, acd will make nothing until they aro obtained, ihis company, with a steam engine of 20 horse power, could run eight amalgamation barrels, waich would yield about one thousand doltars of silver per day. They aleo require specie to pay expenses. It is cingular that the directors at home do not fit up their works in good style, and then they would reap a rich profit. Capi taland machinery are necessary to every mining com- pony. The Indians trouble us all the time, but there seems to be no belp for it. Obituary. GENERAL LORD CATHCART, G. 0. B. {From the London Times, July 20.) In our obituary yesterday we announced the death of General Farl Cathcart, who died on Sunday last at his re- sidence at St. Leonard’s-on-Sea. ant nobleman was brother of Goneral Cathcart who was killed at Inkermann, and, like his father and many of hie ancestors, was brought up to the military profession. He entered the army in May, 1799, and for the first sixteen years cf his career in the army he saw much active service, baying served in the Heider expedi. tion in 1799; in Napies and Sicily on the staifof General Sir James Craig during the campaigns of 1805-6; at the Walcheren expedition in 1809, taking part in the siege of Flushing; and subsequently, in 181%, having joiaed the army in the Peninsula, and taken part in tue’ battles of Barossa, Salamanca, and Vittoria, during which he served ‘as Assistant Quartermaster General; and during tae cam paigns of 1815 inthe Netherlands and France. He was present at Waterloo as one of the Royai Staff Corps, astiag fs one of the azsistant quartermaster generals attached to tbe Britigh forces. The gallant general was ap- pointed, in 1837, Commander of the Forces ta Scotland and Governor of Edinburg Castle; and in 1846 he was roade Governor and Commander-in Chiof of Canade, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, &c. On his return home from North America be was appointed to the command cf the Northern and Midland district, where he served the customary riod, and was succeeded by Licutenaat General larry G. Smith, who now holds the com- mand. For his services in the Peninsular bre received the gola medal and two clasps, and in ition of his ser- vices at Waterloo was made a Knight of the Order of 3t. Wilbelm of Holland, and of St. Viadimir of Russia. In 1838 he was no! ® Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath, and was made a Grand Cross of that Order only a few weeks since. MR. HENRY GRATTAN. ‘The Irish papere announce the death of Mr. Henry Grattan, late M. P. for the county of Meath, and only surviving son of the great Henry Grattan. The event took place rather suddenly on Saturday, the 16th ult., his residence in the county of Wicklow. Mr. Grattan, 88 was but natural, was a devoted friend of liberalism ia the widest acco; mn of the term, and was among the faith{ul few who adhered to Mr. O'Connell throughout bis stormy career of Irish agitation. Mr. Grattan loaves n0 male igsue, his children consisting of two danghters, both recently married, and who, itis to be presumed, will in- herit bis large estates. Disease of the heart is said to have been the cause of death. General de Pontbriant, commandant of the French ar- tillery at Toulon, was struck with apoplexy lately, and expired a!most instantaneously. DEATH OF A FRENCH HEROINE. The Mcniteur de VArmée says: The Hotel des Invalides has just seen one of it glories become extinguished. Angelique Duchemia, better known by the name of the widow Brulon, died there Ubree days ago at tho age of cighty-cight. She was the daughter, tho sister, and the wife of soldiers, and was born and’ married ia’a camp. Angelique Dachomin ‘was admitted in 1792 into the Forty second regiment of infantry, in which General bianca allowed her to serve as a soldier notwithstanding hor sex. She was soon promoted for her gallant conduct in different campaigns. At the affair of the Fort of Gesco, ‘on the 5th Prairial, An 2, she filled the functions of Ser. geant, fought with great courage, and received two wounds, Perceiving that ammunition began to fail, she Jeft the fort at midnight for Calvi, half a league distant, roused up about sixty women, loaded each of them with ag rauch ammunition as she id carry, and led them back to the fort, by which the defence was prolocged for forty-eight hours, and the possession of it maintained. Some timo after, at the slege of Oalvi, she was working 4 16-pounder in tbe bastion which sbe defended, when sh+ received a wound which compelled her to renounce th: career of arms, She soon after entered the Hotel de: Invalides, where she was made sub Lieutenant. The Em ror Napoleon III. conferred on her the cross of th: Fegion of Honor and the St. Helena medal. GENERAL PROCTOR, CQMMANDER OF THE BRITISH AT ‘ FORT ERIE. ‘The London papers record the death of Lieutenant General Proctor, who played such an important in the last war with Great Britain, having commanded the hty second regiment at the battle of Fort Erie, ani subsequently shared in the campaign along the Niagara frontier. He wasa Colonel of the Ninety-seventh regi- ment. He died lately at his seat in Wales, suddenly, from diseaso of the heart. He had been sixty years in the army. In July 1814, he commanded the Kighty-third at Erie, from September 2, and through the succes- sive operations of the campaign on the Niagara frontier. He received the brevet of Lieutenant Colonel for his conduct in repell the attack on tho batteries and position before Fort on the 17th of Septem- ber, 1814, General Procter was also commander of the Dritiah and Indians at the Thames, where Tecumseh was killed. Hoe saved himself on that occasion by a precipitate and hasty flight, extending several mites, in the course of which he was compelled to abandon hie carriage. He bore the character of being hard-hoarted and biood thirsty. Had he been taken at the Chamos, ho would undoubtediy have been summarily treated by the excited Kentuckiana, who held him personally accountable for many of the atrocitics of hin savage ailies, Uur Nebraska Correspondence. Omana Crry, N. T , Jaly 21, 1869. ‘The Indian Troubles in Nebraska—Incidents of the Recent Pawnee Enpudition—The War Department and the Fron ter—Land Sales in Nebraska—Guld News, de., Ec. For the present there seems .a cessation of Indian troubles upon our frontier, The Pawnees, who committed the depredations upon the settlers along the upper Eik, Horn river country, are out upon their annual bunt after Duffaioto the northward of Fort Kearney, to be absent there until September, Upon their return some of the settlers anticipate trouble again with them. The hunt in which they are engaged is joined by our friends the Omaha Indiang, for the purpoe of self-protection against the Cheyenne and other warlike bands of Sioux Indians. Indeed the allied force, in connection with hunting for their winter's supply of moat, may be properly termed upon the-war path, The Pawnees number between seven and eight hundred warriors; the Omabas between three and four hundred. If unsuccessful upon their hunt, or if riven back by the Sioux Indians, then again fear of trouble ig anticipated by the fronticr white settlers of Nebraska. ‘The Pawuces have lost within tho last four weeks some six of their number killed by the whites; five in the ea- gagement at De Witt, in Cuming county, by a detachmen: of volunteers, under Captain J. W. Pattison—four left dead on the ground and one since dead from wounds ro ceived there on the 290th ult., and one prisoner killed whilst altempting to esvape from the regiment of yolan- teers and reguiard, under command of Governor Biack, on the 18th of this month. Tne epgagement ab DeWitt, on the 29th ult. (epoken of in my previous letters), belng the commencement of hos tities, deserves more than a passing notice, Over $9,000 worth of property had been destroyed by them betweea the 24th acd ihe 29th ult. Houses bad been totally plun dered, families driven off in beggary, cuttle driven olf and killed beiore the setters’ eyes; and upon any re- movetrance on the part of the whites, guns were corked, arrows set t the bow strings and presented, threaten\ag those who remorstrated with lustaat death; Poet offls: plunde ed, and devastation was met on every haad. The name of “Pawnee”? bad within a few days cheaged toa dread ai) along the western live of our gettlements, Wo men were threatened with violation, aud terror seem stalking forth over the land just in the season who the: farmers were most buay with their crops. The Pawne: bad been threatened with punishment unless they de- fisted; but these threais were only iaughea at Toe white svitiers were weak, aod the Pawnees were airoug. Cal's for ateistance and protection from settlers thus Dlundered and threatened upon the ling of the Pawnees? march northward, could no: be past unheeded, and at De Witt the band of wuites under Pattison determined to recure as p:izonera a thicving band of ten approaching the house, whither they wero awaiting dinner, 202 whist ©p oa errand of protection to the settlers, Toey ap prosched the houae determined upon mischiet, loading their gnog, examining their arma, &c. La @ back room the listle party of whites psticatly waited their entrance into tbe frontroom, and then fol owivg the lead of Capt. P., rallied out of a #ide door and rusbe? around to the front door to stop their egress. The rush and band to hand fight to keep them back, the discharge of Jrearms by the Indiang upon the }itue band of whites, then the death yoliey from the whites, the yelis of the wounded and groans of the 1g, I will 1eave for some more deasriptive penthan my ova. Tl was all the work of a very few mo. ments. The Ind.avs able to travel, travelled, cxlliag for help from tueir warriors upon the opposite side of the Bik Horn. Capt P., with his little baud aud the settlers, ali with but abont two rounds of ammunition, then fell back upon the eettlcment at Fontenelle, and fortunately for them, baving since Feared that in about one hour some two or turee huadred of the best warriors of the tribe attacked the vacated house witha determination to mas sacre the enti e party. Hore, then, is the starting point of our Pawnee Iadian troubles, ana it witl not be amiss here to state, notwith Standing the ympathy for the ‘one Indian,’ that tats courge pureued by this party of whites bas been and is sustained by pearly every settler ia the Territory. Im mediately upon the reception of this news at this place— the seat of government—and a call from the setilers for help, Gen. Jon M. Toayer (uext in command of the mill- tia to the Governor) promptly responded to the call, Governor Black being absent to spand the Fourth of july at Nebraeka City, and started for the scene of action with the gallant Light Artillery squat of this place. A Geepatch was sent to Governor Black, wlio imme. diately followed General Thayer with a smali de- tachment of United States Dragoons, under Lieu tenant Robingon, a gallant officer from Virgiaia, aad augmented on his march by some thirty o: forty volun- teers; overtook General Thayer on tha 2d ‘ust., upon Rock creek, a tributary of tue Eik Horn river, soms forty miles above Fonteaclie, who had alroady w olunteer force in the field of over one hundred men, making the entire command now number about one hundred and eighty; one company of dragoons under Captain Kennedy, one com. pany of artillery under Captain Ford, and four companies Of infantry under Captains Kline, Haven, —, and —, In the Governor's staff rode © Woodworth, J. Bowie, W. Black and J. McConahie. In General Thayér's sta? fods United States Marshal West (a fearless, intrepid civil or military officer), Captain J. W. Pattison and Major ¥. Pag dock. field officers consisted of Colonel Robinson (Lieutenant in the United States dragoons, but promoted yy the command to this volunteer office), and Major J. B.

Esta. brook, q., Adjutant General; Thomas Clark, Esq., Quartermaster, &o. The broad plain trailof the Pawnees bearing away to the northwest, and skirting the Elk Horn river, was bo fore us; and on we prested under forced marches, camp- ing gt night convenient to timber and water, with te broad canopy above as a covering for a large number of the command. Our route led over @ beautiful couatry. ‘The trail was about five days old. About four o’clock on the afternoon of the 11th we fell in with a friendly Omaha Indian, who informed us the Omahus and Pawasea were encamped on a little creek near the Elk Horn, some six miles farther on, Our camp for the night’was pro- pared, and . this friendiy Omaha was induced after dark to convey a mission to the Oman: asking them to keep aloof from the Pawnees on sae 10f lowing day, and stating the object, General Thayer issued orders for the breaking uf camp and march at vhreo o'clock the following morning, in order to be ready 0 “pitch in”? just us the Pawoves started on their route on tne following morning at daylight. The night was spent by the men in casting bullets and examining their guas. The short, pithy address of Lieuteaant Kobinson to his little squad of Untied States dragoons after dusk seemed tothe point, “Boys,” said he, ‘to morrow morning we may have to fight—it ‘s unnecessary for me to tell you your duty. If fight it is, stick close to me and we'll Bive ’em hell.” Three o’c! on the morning of the 12th came, and we Were ona rapid march. Sunrige found us within sight of the loug siring of dark objecta just moving off over a broad beautiful prairie bottom, adout tour miles distant from us, and about three miles from El« Hora river- When within three miles of them we passed the Omaha Indians, waiting as directed, and the Pawnees for the frat time found a goodly array of whites ia full chase after them. The entire amount of Pawnees, including squaws, papooses, &c., was about 4,000, and about 700 warriors. General Thayer ordered a cherge, and on, vader fall run, dashed some twenty-two of the mounted force, foliowed cloge by the cannon equad, and bebind them the infantry under quick time. On we went over the prairie under the maddest gallop your correspondent ever before rode, Che Indians broke for the river under fuil run, leaving their pack ponies, packs, squaws and papooses behind. Toe sight was we!l worthy of a sketch—it was peautifu', magnificent. To {ntorcept them from crosging the Elk Horn was now our object, which the General saccecdea im doing to the amount of one-half, they scattering over the prairie, Two pisto! shots brough: one of their priact- pal chiefs to a atop, and amid a jargon of [ndian and Eog- lish, we were informed he was a chief, beca to Washing. ton, and wanted to talk. A momentary halt was com: manded, until the gallant jittle artillery squad could come up, unlimber, form on our left, load, &3., intending, it seeme, to opena fire withthe cannon loaded with grape, slugs, &9., then charge again with the mounted force. Governor Black arrived under full gallop meanwhile, and the chief aforementioned, showing an earucat desire to talk, was, through our interpreter, given thirty minutes to bring in the chie/s. Shortly in they came, and the object of our expedition briefly stated. Tney were willing to make any reparation, any concessions possible to avoid a fight, partioularly as the loag line of infantry and wagons came hurrying into line of battle upon our left. A demand was made for the priacipal ‘ones engaged in this plundering expedition, and six were hunted down by those of their own tribe and brought in and delivered over to the Governor. An agree ment was drawn up and signed by the Indians, ia whic they agreed to pay from their annuities the amount of the depredations committed by them uy the whites— amounting probably 10 $8,000—and also The expense of the expedition. ¢ Iodians were then permitted to “move on,” and after a six milee march farther we en. camped for the day to rest our wearie? horses aad recrui:. One of the prisoners who bad been mortaliy wounded im the fight at De Witt was allowed Ww go and di: in bis ibe. ‘Next day about noon we passed the united enzampment of the Omabas and Pawnees, and through the lack of at- tention on the part of the guard over the prisoners, four of the latter eecaped—they being in the rear of the train— not until one fell dead from a pistol shot wound a: the hands of our friend United States Marshal West, just as he had reached the outskirts of his own village. The reat were supposed to be wounded.

Sulecide of the Murderer Htli tn Galveston. [From the Galveston (Cexas) News, Juty 26.) Sunday morning last, upon the jatior visiting the cel of the prisoner Hili—conflaed for the murder of W. ¥ Lyon, and who was lately convicted of the crime, and a new trial granted by Judge Watrous, oa wccouat of inior- malities in thejary—he found his stiffened corpse in place of the living, Bealthy maa he had left the night before. ‘The cell !n which ili was confined was the cast oue in the row which is detached from the outer wail of the jail; running through the centre of this cell there was a tures. quarter inch iron red placed to s:rengthen the outer walia. In the routh end of the cet! & doubiy grated window for the admission of light and air is placed, and ia the outer wall, and nearly opposite, isano:her grated window. From all appearances, and the stateuwents of the two prisoners who aided Hill in his desperate effrts to escaps, the fol- lowing wasthe modus op-randi:—An o'd case, or tale knife was procured by Hill, of which he made a'saw, with which he cut the three-quarter inch bar off near the middie and near the wail of the cell, which ave him @ bar near five feet in length. This far he cut in the middie, and commenced his work by breaking a hole through the wall between his own aad the cell occupied by two [rishmen confined for some minor offences. Through this hole he passed one of the bara, when the work of makiog a ge Way through the wall commenced—Hiil working upon one side of the division wail and the Irighmen on the other. The hole was soon made large enough, as the wall is entirely of brick and mortar, and the two Irishmen crowded themeelves through into Hiil’s cell, and then commenced the work of escape immediately under the doubly grated cell window, but ag the wall was here filled with flat iron bars running length. wise, the progress made was slow, but they succeeded in bending bats and forcing out the brick until w par sage was made, through which they all gov into the passage yunning around the row of cells, But one more wail, and that of brick alone, now stood between the desperate man and liberty, and the attack was made upon this beneath the grated window, and near haif the labor of penetrating to the outer air accomplished, when daylight came upon them and the work was abandoned. Hill returned to his cell, undreesed and bathed himself, and put on a clean shirt, drawers acd stockings. A moment after this, one of the Irishmen looked {nto his cell and saw him in the act of banging himself, and ¢0 informed bis companion, who states thet he entered the cell #3 soon as possible, and with the old knife used as a saw, Cut him down, but too late to prevent his spirit from taking its flight to ite long homo, A linen sheet fastened to the remaining part of the rod running through the cell, and which wag but little if any more than eix feet above the floor, was the gallows upon which he suspended himself. To accomplish bis purpose of terminating nis existence he must have drawa up his feet, as the aistance between the noose and the floor would not admit of his remaining erect. In the cell were found a red shirt and an oid hat, with which it is presumed he intended disguising. himself, when he had escaped. In the pockets of his clothes were found $6 10 in gold and sitver, an eye glass, comb, and sundry otter small articles, and two packages of pilis—a half dozen in each—as large a8 & medium sized bullet, composed of phosphorus (a subtle poison), aad gulphar cut from friction matchee, and bread.

Thu» follo are the leading facts of thie painful aod most disgusting Dr. Aumphreys—fer sich is ihe name of 700 who bag seduced the affections of avotner’s wife—was fur Several yeare tho bead master of tue Cue!tenbam Grammar School.“ Some few months ago, under the piea of pocu Diery pressure, he tought the prov Court to save bimeelf from arrest; while apparently pe: paring for his examination, he had been scraping every shilling together be could possibly lay hold of, in order to form a fund w aid bie clandestine and pre determiaed de nat from the country. Oniy three days before that leparture, he conveurd ® meeting of the parants of his pupils, and ganctimoniously talked about acknowledging that “Divine help” without which all bis Inbore would have been Oo the morwing of his departare he took his wife’s watch and ail the loose monvy sue happen €d to havo in her posket, and went away oa the pretence of getting money from some friends in Derbysire, to sist in bis defence in the Intolveot Court " He wr his wife from Liverpool, telliog bor he had beea ‘griev- ously disappointed”’ in not getuog the money, and saying tbat he must be absent from Cheltenham for some day: On the very morning ov which Mrs. Humphreys received this letter, she received anotver letter from the [rieuds to whom he bad gone, asking her aod ber ausbaud to spead the holidays at their house. Ser ears boing thus opennd, on her foliowing Lim $0 Liverpool, she found that be bad taken passage for America in an assumed name; that large quantiles of iuggage had bsen forwarded to nim fron time to time in anticipation of hie doparture; and that on bis arrival at Liverpool he had met, by previous arrange. ment, ® married lady—the wife of one of his largest Cheltenham creditors—whoee aifections duced, and ia whore compaay he had left the country. When we add te this that be left hig heart-brokea wi’e with six children witbout the slightest means of sup port, and toat the lady wbo is the guilty parwer of his iiight was herself the mother of eight caildren, we have said enough to show that the man who could conceive and carry out such @ ssbeme of duplicity and depravity could Baye been no ordinary villain. What the course of this hejy man and bis paramour afver arriving in Amorica was we are notaware, The iret that we flad of him in this country is his arrival in Aloany, and, after a short stay there, bis departure for Toroaw, where he arrived eome weeks ogo. Atter his hasty and shameful flight from England, the friends of the tady woo had been go rath leesiy torn from them, having become solicitous aboat her future welfare, despatched to the head of the New York Pojice @ communication stating the facia of the case, and advising the arrest of Dr. Hampareys. In that city, how. ever, if he ever touched there—aa it is very probavie he did—he eluded the vigilance of the detective officers, and cal on to Toronts, fhe New Yorkers were not to be dodged in this way, anda detestive was gent to haat up the game, which he gucceeded in trackivg (o this city, arriving here about two weeks ago. Aa interview was bad immediately with Detector Greaves, of the police force in thie city, and a photograph of the fugitive doctor given him, go that he might also be oa the qué vive for tue divine’s arrest. No: many days after he had the good forcune to meet the reverend gentiemac on Queen street, in com pany with his inamorato, end he instantly recogaized him as the person for whom he was inquest. By proper obser- vation it wag discovered that he resided on Mutual etreet, and a watch was instantly sect upon his house, which has Deen cont'nued to the preseat time. Since be arrived here he has passed by the name of Hunter, ‘The lady who has thus caocen to auare the fortunes of the wandering and faithlese doctor was, wo understand, the wife of a Dr. Cummings, a clergyman of high standing in the church of which he is a member, and algo a person of considerable wesith. So that, as far as riches could pur- chase the good things and the enjoyments of,this life, sue had nothing to desire, Nothing was deuied her; but still abe was not happy. What may have been tue pezuliar at tractions of Dr. Humphreys, which forced her to tear her- self from the arms of ono who, fram anything we cau learn to the contrary, loved her with the tender and affec tionate love of a true’and devoted husband, wo, of course, do not presume to say. But Dr. Humphreys, in compara tively poor circumstance, was to her mind’ more to be desired than Dr. Cummings, to whom she bad previously plighted her troth and affections Aud she made the choice and to all appearance does not regret it. When the Doctor arrived here he made application to a gentleman in high position in the educational institutions Of the country fora tencherehip, but none was vacant; and whether the perso ied to hat been previously acquainted with the Doctor or not we are not aware, but. after some conversation between them the whole story of Dr, Humphrey’s flight and bis geduction of a cromior's wife was rover A correspondence cusues, in which the lady took part, deciaripg im a true romantic spirit her attachment to her new “‘afliaity,” ani relating in tendor strains the many sad aad heertrending da; had spent before her wishes in thig respect were col mated. Sne loved him, she aflirmed,as she had never loved another, and nothing but death itself sould seps- ratethem. She still adheres tothe same opinioas. All the entreaties of friends, all the inducements of wealth, cannot persuade her to alter her determination of sharing for life the lot of one who has a'ready proved faithless to her who, for many iong years, had been the partuer of hia joys and of his griefs, aud wuo, after bearing him six children, be hus leit to ‘the mercy of a compassioaate public. Oh Thureday morning lest Sergeant Mejor Forris, who had algo been employed in watching the parties implicated in this affair, having reason to believe they would visit ‘be Normal School during the day, to witness the Motei School examinations, accompanied’ by two or three per sonsand Mr. Cock, a cousia of Mrs, Oummiage, woo ac rived here (rom England not mauy days eince, the latter took the precaxtion to retire into a private room in the bnilding lest he might be seen by Hamphreys, But the Sergeant Major took his station near the main entrance to ihe building” with a photograph likeness of the reverend delinquent in his hand; aad waited there till naar three e’clock in the afternoon, when at length he descried a Pertonnge anawerjpg the description in the likeness enter the ground. Dr. Humphreys—for it was he—walked into the building, and bscing jooked round a little, took his xeat quite comfortably in the testes, where tue prizes were being distributed, Sergeant Major Ferris then com- municated with Mir, Cock and the other parties in waiting, and two of them went forward into the theatre at ouce, and served Humphreys with sitations from the High Court of Divorce, England. Humphreys’ dismay at this unex- pected turu of aifsire may be more easily imagined than Gescribed. There was nothing (or it, however, but to submit, and a8 soon a8 he recovered bis equanimity he Jeff the building with the parties coming in search of him, and proceeded with them to his lodgings, Mutual street, where be occupies two rooms, Here the lady was con- fronted with ber paramour by Mr. Cock, her relative, ani was also served with a citation from toe English Di- vorce Court. Ia the course of therame evening the man watching Humpbreys and Mrs. Commiogs saw them take & cab aad drive to the Rossin House. Fearing they proposed leaving town, Sergeant Major Ferris was requested to follow them in another cab, and he did go. They drove round the suburbs of the city for about an hour and a half, followed ata cautious distance by the Sergeant Major, but ultimate- ly returned to their present lodgings, Mutual street, with. out having made auy attempt to escape. Mr. Cock bas, it is said, had several interviews with Mra. Cummings, in order to induce her to return to her friends in Eogland and leave her seducer, But her deter- mipation ig said to be fixed, that nothing shall induce her to return to them again. The story goes that some portion of the church going publicin this city hed quite a narrow escape from hear- ing the reverend runaway diecouree from the pulpit. Ar- rangements, it is believed, were made, or were about being made, for his preaching a sermon in Uook’a Caurch. Tne congregation were, however, the mortiiication. Some inkling of Humphreys’ conduct was reseived by one of the elders of the church, and the result was that Alumphreys never discoursed from that pulpit, In eerving the citations on both parties, the police here have proceeded as far as they can do at prevent. Their principal movements for some time to come will be confia- ed to watching tie runaways, wherever they go. What the upshot of this scandalous affair will be, it is difficult to conjecture. x RewarD FOR THE Re-Carture OF THE SECOND Mare oF THe Bark RawuNs.—The government, through its accredited officers, has offered the above reward fo: the recapture of Sloan, second mate of the bare E.
