Presently the Bppo: (unity i am One of the waiters left the door open, and through the crack the lady was distinctly visible. The detective fell hack as if he had been shot: plunged his hand Into lii« piK-kets to find the portrait of Miss Aaehhold pres ently he pulled i! out, looked at it atten tively, and then took another peep through the crack In the door. Apparently satis fied. he slowly walked away, hi- counte nance exhibitin';- a mixture of the great est surprise, indignation and self-satisfac tion. At this moment a waiter met him. “Hallo l" said he. "Do that gentleman and lad? often eonie here?” “Two or three times a week, sir,” was the reply. “Tlie deuee they do,” said the detective, slowly. “Well, 1 am—'1 what he did not -av, for, chuckling to himself, he went out, jumped into the haek, and returned at foil speed to New York. He was con veyed -Haight to Mrs. Arehhold. and de manded to see her alone. His manner wn so constrained that she instantly divined that something most startling had hap pened. “You have news—news of Mary." “Yes, Mrs. Arehhold, I have but I don’t exactly know how I'm to tell you.” “Where is she? what is she doing? Speak, mail speak!" "Mrs. Arehhold. you ask Mr. Horton, he'll tell you better than I can." Mr IloVtou! What do you mean—docs he know where she is?” “J guess so—he ought to.” “Wliat is this mystery? Tell me all you have to tell me. plainly. 1 can bear all. “Well, don't blame me. Mrs. Arehhold —jf you will have the truth—Mr. Horton has known all along where your daughter has been.” “How dare von tell me so—how dare you hint “It's of no use being angry, madam, with me—I have only done my duty. I tell you I have seen your daughter and Mr. Horton together this afternoon, have but just left them, and can take you to the house w here I saw them leave." Mrs. Arehhold did not faint or scream, but fcor features grew rigid with anger and pale with agitation. She left the room, and in a very few minutes re-entered ’it, dressed and ready to go out. “Come," she said and the two silently started on their errand. When they ar rived at the house the detective rang the bell and asked the servant if Miss Areh boid lived there., “No, sir. we have none but married peo pie here. ‘•Well,-1 showing the portrait, “does this lady live here “Yes, sir: hut she is not in at present." “Very well, then we will come in and wait for her: but you need not tell her that any one is here.” The hours passed very tediously, and the fortitude of Mrs. Arehbold had almost given way, when a carriage drove up to the door, and immediately afterwards her daughter’s voice was heard bidding some one “good night." The carriage slowly departed, and the detective, bidding the mother keep close behind him, stepped quietly into the hall, and stood face to face with the girl lie had so long been Jooking for. “Good evening. Miss Arehbold.” “That is not my name,” and she looked him foil in the face. “Indeed. I)a you not, then, know this lady Her bravado was all gone then, and uttering a scream that made even the ex perienced police officer wince, she cover ed her face with her hands, and fell faint ing on the floor. The defective raising the tailing lady in j his arms, carried her out, and placed her j by her weeping mother's side in a carriage he had procured. It is no intention of mine to recount the scene he then witness ed between Mrs. Arehbold and her child. The detective in all his experience had never met the like, and hopes never to meet it again. They were both somewhat more composed before they reached home and the mother had again nerved herself to meet the sujike whom she had so long called friend. Mr. Horton had come in. and was in the dining-ronm, w here he had been told by the other two daughters, who had been previously instructed, that Mrs. Arehbold had gone to take tea with an acquaintance. He turned quickly round, smiling bland ly, as the handle of the door was turned, and was about to advance—when he stood transfixed with terror, and grasped the table for support. Mrs. Arehbold never spoke, but, draw ing herself up to her full height, pointed to her daughter, who had sunk into a chair and was sobbing convulsively. Her sisters, rushing to her s.de, fondled and embraced her, calling her by name and entreating her to be calm. Presently Mr. Holton staggered, rather than walked out, without breaking the silence, the street door was opened and shut, and he was gone. “Well,” said I, “and how did it all end “Oh! it was hushed up, as well as it could be, though scores of people in New York will recognize the story, and know the actors in it. Horton had fascinated the girl, I suppose: he certainly was a very pleasant man lie flattered her, and filled her head with rubbish, and 1 have no doubt had an eye to her money eventually. J wu- the means of his wife obtaining a divorce from him and I believe he is go. ing to marry Mi» Arehbold, hut I doubt if her mother will ever speak to hitu again although they often meet.” “What! is he in the city 'till?" "Certainly, and doing a good business. He is a clever fellow. He knew that he had a much better chance of being unsus pected if the girl remained close at home and I must confess that if it had not been for a whim I should nevi r have caught him.—From the Sew Fork Keening Fust. \'Y Warn from the Belfast Journal (hat the contract for building all the depots, station buildings, engine bouses, warehouses and woodsheds on the line of the Belfast 4.

AUGUSTA., Saturday .Horning, Mnrrh 20, 1870. j j rimS/DKNT C7.M.V7' 4#n COM MF.ltt Tin- earnest ami active interest which President Thant takes in the revival of Vineriean commerce and navigation is shown by his recent message to Congress! in favor of niensures to in-oniote them. Tie [regards their decline, followed as it i- by our being obliged to pay large sums to foreign vessels annually for doing work p that we ought to do ourselves, creating j a drain upon our resources, so far as the I nation is concerned, like easting the same j amount of money into the sea, as a sutli- 1 eient cause fui national humiliation. The idea that a ration like this, with its ast interior resources, and washed for thou sands of miles by the watt rs of the two great oceans, should depend upon foreign nations for transportation and commerce, is one which finds no favor in his mind, and he emphasizes his objection when he sac teat we “mast one day possess a full share ..f the cominer,- of these oceans, no matter st what st. This is somewhat different from the view which is taken in smne quarters, that our navigation inter-; e is are local in their advantages, being of, m particular benefit to any section except the sea coast, and having little national importance. When the chief of the nation says we must have our share of the com ruerce of the oceans at any cost, the deela- ration is sufficient to stamp the nationality I of the question, and give it the importance in public estimation which it deserves. We doubt not that England has already taken notice of the expression, ami weighed its import as touching her commercial inter ests. We trust it may prove the key-note j to a movement that shall wrench from her what she has already stolen from u> in i commercial advantages, and make our flag second to none on the world’s great highway. Ill summing up the benefits ol the “11a- i tional blessing of building ships and navi gating them," the President puts the ease in its proper shape. It will occupy thou sands of workmen in constructing and manning vessels: create a home market for the produce of the farm and the shop 1 diminish the balance of trade against us; and give us an invaluable supremacy upon the seas in ease of foreign war. Of the value of the merchant marine as a means ot national defence in time of war, his ref erence to the aid which it afforded the na tion in the rebellion is a clear exemplifi cation. This merchant marine had cost the government nothing, but had been a source of national w ealth, ami yet it furnished ‘•six hundred v -sels, exceeding one mil lion tons, and about seventy thousand men, to a;^ ;u suppressing the rebellion.” With such an indisputable record as this the building up of our navigation interests should not need friends even upon the prairies of the West. National defence falls alike upon all parts of the country, while commerce extends everywhere that production exi-ts. The Wot as much de- I pends upon vessels to transport its products abroad, as the Atlantic States depend upon building and sailing them to support their population. In recommending the lulls now before Congress, the President speaks with ap proval of the labors of the Committee which prepared them, and whose duty it was to investigate the causes of the decline of our commerce. The details of the hills are very properly not endorsed, these be ing left unembarrassed, so that free dis cussion and further consideration may shape them into such form a- may appear best tor the main object. What the Presi dent de-ires to see is the adoption of the best measures that can he taken for the ei euiiragement and aid of our navigation interests, and that too as quickly as pos.-i bli i as to give a favorable influence to shipbuilding this year if it may be done, ire i- hope for our Maine shipbulders, providing they keep pace with the de I rnands of the times in regard to the mode of constructing vessels demanded by car riers. There i- something to be thought of in the growing demand for iron vessels i and steam propulsion which ought not to be neglected or passed over as of no eon sequence. “PAPF.lt CREDIT" HE SOLVES.

A meeting of the school book publish ers ot the l/nited. States was held at New York last w eek. The manner in which their business has been carried on was found to be leading to such results that a change was necessary. The present sys tem of introducing school books was re solved against, and other evils were con sidered. Finally an association was: formed and articles adopted for its govern ment. By these article* the members of the Con-; vention was formed into'an association under j the title of the Publishers' Board of Trade. After the ITtlt of March no school-books are to be introduced into any school at less than one-half the retail price. After July 1 all traveling agencies are to be discontinued, and the introduction of new books made exclu sively by correspondence.

The executive session of the Senate on the 21th, was entirely occupied by Mr. Sumner in an exhaustive speech in opposition to the rat ification of the San Domingo treaty. The’Senate, in Executive session, confirmed the nomination of Eugene Schuyler to he Secretary of Legation at St. Petersburg. The resolution asking for the dismissal of General Schoepf from his position in the patent office was pri ssed to a vote in the House and carried through. He resigned some days ago. not wishing to embarrass Sec retary Cox, from whom he received his ap pointment. The final report from the cadet investiga ting committee occupied the time of the House for more than two hours Thursday, and gave rise to a debate that was at times somcwh.it sharp and acrimnious. The bill regulating the manner of future appointments to West Point and Annapolis, declaring that boys must have resided for one year in the districts to which they are credited, was easily put through by a vote so nearly unanimous that there was no division. One of the funniest scenes ever witnessed in tin* House occurred Thursday when Mr. Hooper (rt Boston had read an article in a Philadelphia paper lecturing him for his ad vocacy of polgamy. The blundering editor hail of course confounded him with Hooper of Salt Lake. The matter gave rise to roars of laughter. The Senate Committee on Post Offices unit Post roails agreed to report a bill subsidizing the line of mail steamships between S in Fr«n eisto and China to the extent of one million dollars, with an amendment providing that the Company shall construct at least one new ship annually, and a recommendation that sueli ship he of iron. There is getting to he considerable talk in all official circles about the increase or reduc tion of the army.

Such a demand exists for relics from the ••Eliza Wharton” monument at South Dan vers.

He had disposed of rights lor Missouri, Kan sas and Nebraska, and had secured titles to 320 acres of land in Nebraska, anil 160 acres of land in Kansas, and two valuable lots in the city ol Chicago. He had accomplished in a lew weeks what he had expected would require a year, and hi** excitement was so great as to throw him into a brain fever, from which lie died. There is an underground poml of consider able extent in South Worcester, Mass. The latest reminder of it was the sinking of a piece ot land several rods square, last Wcd nesday night, near Southbridge street, filling up for house lots. Larth had been hauled on till the surface was two or three feet high i r than the surrounding territory, but the whole is now as many feet under water. It was found that by probing the soil* which is not very thick, a pole could he thrust down to the depth of thirty feet in many places.

Thi indictment wa* for mur der, and Attorney General Frye conducted the prosecution. The jury, an hour s-ubsc- quint to the giving of the charge ly the Judge, brought in a verdict of “.Vo/ Guilty.*' The evidence showed that the officer, at the time of the unfortunate event, w as in the dis charge of his duty. On the day of the homi- 1 t ide an execution in favor of a woman named Delia Tolman vs. Ezekiel Tolman, a brother of the deceased, was put into the hands of Cyrus G. Brown. E*q., Deputy Sheriff, for tlie arrest of said Ezekiel Tolman. Deputy Brown proceeded to the home of John S. Tolman, in whose house his brother Ezekiel resided. Upon announcing his business to Ezekiel Tolman the latter refused to be ar rested. and threatened the officer. The offi cer then returned to the village for assistance and returned to the house between 1 and 2 o'clock in the afternoon with Mes.?r*. William G. Fish, William O. Morrow. Alvan II. Greenlcaf and Asa Brown. Deputy Brown was met at the door by John S. 'Tolman who this time refused the officer entrance. The officer and his aids, however, entered the house, whereupon John and his brother Ezekiel ii treated to the chamber, armed w ith t clubs, and having a loaded musket. Ezekiel made desperate threats. Finding that Ezekiel could not be arrested without danger of blood shed, and that John S. was assisting in hold ing them at bay, Asa Brown went to the village to procure a warrant for the arrest ot John S. Tolman. lie returned at about five o’.clock in company with Hiram F. Fletcher, j and John Fletcher who was an officer ein j powered to serve warrant*, and hav ing a^w.ir rant for the arrest of John S. Tolman. Fletcher approached John S., who had come down >tairs, and proclaimed his arrest. After a little parley John S. Tolman again retreat ed up stairs, and said he should injure the man who lollovvcd him. Alter another hour's delay, John S., again returned from the chamber, and otli r Fletcher proceeded to arrest him, when 'Tol man attacked him and called upon Ezckbd who was stijl upstairs, to “come with the gun” and to his wife and others of his family to rush to the assault on the officer*, which orders were severally obeyed. Toluian after strik ing officer Fletcher several fearful blow and at the moment when he had an iron fire shovel raised to strike a fatal blow Fletcher drew a pistol and fired, the ball proving fatal.
