Rowan, one of the witnesses in the Berry affair, arrived this morning'. He pronounces the statements that two conn panics of militia had gone to the reservation to aid the sheriff in making the arrest as untrue and said it would have been foolhardy, as the Indians were on* the alert and knew every movement of the State officials. He further says that they had orders to send a detail to escort the messenger with the $75,000 of Ute money to the Agency, but the order was recalled before he left, so he thinks the money was returned to Washington.

Sanford, some six feet be neath the road bed, the workmen found a layer of logs which years ago composed the old corduroy road on that street. We have made in quiries of several inhabitants, not one of whom could remember when the road was in use. No doubt the logs have been there nearly if not quite a hundred years, and are in an almost perfect state of preserva tion.

Botty, -a lawyer of 'Mew York city, brought suit in the Marine Court to recover $ 1,500 for ' professional services rendered to Mrs. Bertha Heyman. He obtained judg ment by default, bat a motion was afterward made to allow the defend ant to come in and plead, claiming that Mr. Botty had promised not to take judgment against her. It seems from Mr. Betty's affi ’a- vii that he met Mr^ Hevman by re quest at the New York Hotel. She wished to employ a Mr. Schwartz to collect her rents, and consulted with a lawyer as to the advisability of per mit ting Schwartz to draw checks for $25,000. She represented herself as owning railroad stocks, bonds, &c,, which she wished to dispose of for $20,000,000, and directed Law yer Botty to attend the settlement ot contract on August 2, last, which was deferred from time to time. Judge McAdams’s decision, made Monday morning, is in substance, that the defendant, Mrs, Heyman, is “ either insane or has acquired a very unfortunate habit of exaggera tion,” and that she will be entitled to her day in court on payment ol §30 costs While Mrs. Heyman was Mr. JBotty's client, she induced him to loan her $200, and then $300, to settle some temporary financial diffi culty. This he succeeded in recov ering after much trouble.. A draft of $13,000, made by Mrs. Heyman, came back from Milwaukee protest ed, the drawee writing that instead of owing her $13, 500 she owed him 47,000. The numerous delays in ¿ringing her alleged wealth into practical use, and Mr. Botty’s ina bility to find a will arkler which she claimed to have inherited a large es tate in Dutchess County, aroused his suspicions, and eventually led him to bring suit against Mrs, Heyman. It is said that a Mr. Perrin, a con ductor on a £ ullman palace car, running from New York to Chicago, in which city he resided, was en gaged by Mrs. Heyman as her real estate agent at $2 ,500 a year. He gave up his position on the railroad, sold all his furniture, and brought his to this city. In her failure to make good her promise to him, Mr. Perrin brought suit against Mrs. Heyman in August last. Mis Iii'vman is now stopping at the Hotel Brunswick, and is accom panied by her husband and a Dr. Combs, who is represented as her business manager. A n o t h e r H o rae sto le n .

The entire rig was valued at $150. ---------- ---------------- PE R S O N A L ,». H. II. Waldo, of Rookford, 111 ., is visiting his brother, A. J. Waldo.
