At least this is what bystanders interred {rom the complaint lodged against her, which alleged that she was by choice a cyprian and a fugitive from the Mugdalen Asylom in Eignty-eighth street, voppingly she asked permisston of the Court to tell ner own siory.

OLD CHARGES REVAMPED. The Way They Were Exploded Years Ago. Nuw Yor, Oot. 3, 1878. To ras Epirox ov ras Hematy:— Yhere have recently been published two reports, made by three special agents of the Treasury De- partment, in which L am charged with ofMfcia! mis- conduet. These charges relate to transactions which took piaco ten years ago, and are apparently now paraded to affect public opinion with relerence to recent occar! 8, in tne hope that stale and refuted charges of past cerruption may be accepted us evi- donee of recens misconduct. The fi report, dated on June 25, 1878, was called to my attention on July 8 by Collector arthur, to whom it bad been reierred for investigation. The sec- ond one I '@ bever heard of prior to its recent pub- Hoation, 4 When the Collector was directed to inquire into the truth of the eharges be naiuraily requesied tho department to /uroish bim with a copy of the testi- mony and decuments on which they were based, but He partment did aot eom, tbe tbe request, also asked to be furnished with a qopy of a made by a special agent of the Treasury Department, Who investigated one of the charges at the time of the transactions, At first, the department professed its ignorance of auy such réport; but when the pre- cise date of ite \ranemiasion was. turnished it was re- juctantly produced. The fact that ihe report entirely exonerated me from blame probably accounted for the reluctance. The depart 4 having by peity devices succceded in rendering impossible a new tnvestiga- tion by General Artnar, which it bad pretended to de, sire, 1, ou July 19, the day belore bic suspoasion took effect, addressed him a letter, of which a copy 1s heres with trapemitied, ‘There are (wo distinot ob: against me, bi of them, ag 1 bave said, relatiag to transactions which ocurred ten years ago, The most serious of them was then investigated by the Collector, Navai Officer and Surveyor, and they all, as well as the Special Agent already reterred to, concurred in tully exoner- atiog me.
