After sev eral iuurvietvs, however, Mrs, Warn succeeded iu coiiviueing Mr, Pinkerton that tho innovation could he realized, . and shu enttrerl his service.

As the world generally looks at these things at the present time, the very name ol detective is synonymous with associations of evil. Still ibis is not nectary, and so far as regarded the femule department under the charge of Mr a. Waiu was not true, Among some of the earlier investigations with which she was connected was that of tha robbery of the Adams Expret-s -t . ll-.I 41. -.1 - by that coinpauy lost abont $10,000. After long and careful following up of this case l.y both tho mala and female portion of Mr. Pinkerton's force, the money vattall recovered except f-lS5, by Mrs, Warn, at Jenkiutown, Pouu., nearly one year alter the money had been stolen. At thb timo when the money was recovered, it was iu the original packages iu which it had bi a put np ut the bank., Hliewas also "the lady nukuown" who arraui'ed for the securing of tho fcleepiug-car berths for Mr. .Lincoln, Mr. Pinkerton, aud Mr. Lamon, upon the eventful paasage of Mr. Lincoln from Philadelphia to Washington on tha 22d ot February, 1861 After the breaking out of the rebelliou, Mr. rinkerton having been assigned to duty- as tho' bead of the Secret Service of the army of the United States, Mrs. Warn took charge ot tha female department at the national capital for that perilous service, and continued at the head ol it during tha worst years of the war, or up till lob.!, when Mr. Pinkerton re tired from active service for a short interval. Daring this time bug had to combat with all the female rebels iu Washington, which waa at that time a hot-bed of treason, where none weie - more active than were the female seces sionists of what had been known as the first families oi thu Ditttriot, as also of Maryland. In 1862, wlreu Mr. Pinker ton went with (ieu. McClellan's army to the Peninsula, Mrs. Warn remained ia Washington in charge of the female department herself. For a great portion of Jhe time, es pecially during the memorable Seven Days' battles, she waa cut off from all communication with, the head of the organization, Mr. Pinkerton, who was with the army. .

[From the St. Louis Democrat.] Tii June, 1666, the stables of the Fifth etieet horse railroad company, opposite tho arseual, were destroyed by tire, aud five or six doztju mules were roasted ill UiO names, ine carcasses were allowed. to rutuain for seyeral days until they created a bad 6tcnch. The city then ordered them to be thrown into the river, aud a committee was ap pointed to see the job done. The river at that,t:iiie wan high, und the order was t throw the dead mules luto deep water, aud it was supposed they would float away and be devoured by the cat fish. The Committee sonuded the water aud found a place about twenty feet deep, aud here tby dumped their loads of mule tlw-li. It so happened that the plnce ot deposit selected was the quarry of H. J. Hilsdorf, which at the time waa submerged, and ont of sight. In a few days the rivor receded from its banks, and the quarry came to light, and tberer securely resting in their uiiHiJv graves, were the swollen carcasses of the roasted mules. The stench now was worse than before, aud the qtinrry could not be worked. The sediment deposited by the water had also nearly filled the quarry excavation, und the heads and ribs of the mnlos were - sticking our, :- resembhng so many monstrous turtles. The Committee endeavored . to dislodge them into deep water, but the animals, stubborn to the last, relaxed to budge. The wholo neighborhood was scentod by the odor arising front the carcasses, which, added to the effluvia of the slough ponds, rendered that portion of the city anything bat a garden of roses. Hilsdorf now comes forward and sues the eity for 810,000 for filling his quarry with mule meat. Tbe suit is pending in tbe Circuit Court, No. 2, and will' be decided in a day or twu. Mr. J. Philip Kriger, who was in the Council at tbe time, and was one of the Committee to drown tho .dead mules, is the principal witness for tho city. j Thb St. Joseph Herald reports an other elopement case.

[From the New York Sun, March 4] On Monday evening about fifty gen tlemen assembled at the Everett House at tbe invitation of Prof. JohnGamgee, of London, to apply the test of the pal ate to the results of a new process in vented by him for the preservation of meats. The party on being nshered into the dining room fouud a neat re past before them, and among their dishes, as set forth iu the bill of fare, muttuu . m various jtyles. served. np from crosses Blanghtored three and (our months ago a his mutton coming from England, was no doubt of choice quality; but all seemed to admit that it was sweet and - palatable, lackiug only, pethaps, tbe lively, juicy navor ol tLe fresh article. The color oi ine flesh when, oooked is etrougly pink; whioh, however, soon fades ou expos ure to the atmosphere. , Alter the viands bad been disposed of. Prof. Gamcee arose, and with few prefatory remarks, described tbe process of pre9erviug the meats waicn bad just been eaten, toguther with the objects iu view which had led him to make his experiments. The prooess is briefly as follows: . . , A close bag containing oarbonic oxide gus ifr tiirown over the head of tbe animal to be slaughtered, when partial anpbyxia quickly eusnes. ' The animal ' is bled to. death, and bleeds well. The body then hastily dressed aud. while btill warm, the parts to bo preserved are placed iu an air tight iron case, into which carbouio oxide tras is introduced. ' A Bmall compart ment oouueoted with the- case ooutains charcoal, which has already absorbed a oortaiu quantity of sulphurous acid cus. These materials penetrate the fibre of the flesh, and arrest ferment tinn and decomposition. The special province of the snlphurons acid gas is to combine with every particle of the oxygen iu the remaining air, and thus ruuder tue case practicany air-uguu The Professor stated that the presence of a considerable degree of beat would bo r.o detriment to the process, aud hence it could be snccetafully complete ed iu a warm climate. The desigu is to bring the vast cattle region of bontb America and Australia at the doors of the populous cities of the world. For the present, operations looking to a full test of Professor Gamgee's process will be eouducted iu Texas, where a tuarketablo- steer ia valued at about $10. ,i It is said, by tho way, that the Texan beef is of superior quality, ow iug mainly to the peculiar juices of the mezqtut grass of that region.. It ought to be mentioned that not only all kinds of meats, but tiali, fruits, &e., according to the Professor, can be preserved in like manner. Heavy Mail Robbery in Cleveland. [From the Cleveland Leader of March 4.] We are again called niiou to record another outrage npon tho Union mails, which was commuted at the Union de pot in this city, on Monday night. Owing to the sevcro snow storm, the New York express, from Cincinnati, with the throngh Eistern mail, due at Cleveland at 6:20 A. M., did not airive till 6 P. M. The mail agent at the Cleveland depot, Henry Frisael, npon the arrival of this train, had not been informed as to whether a train would go east, aud he deposited the muil in his room at tho depot, the usual place of keeping it when connections nre tardy, and left the building at 8:50 P. M. Upon returning bait au hour later, he discovered that the room had been burglariously entered through tbe only window which opens into tbe apartment, from tbe west end of tbe building. There were nineteen locked bolts and pouches iu tbe room, three of which were cone, aud the lucky alarm probably saved many more from u sim ilar fate. Immediately upon tbe discovery ot tbe robbery, Officer Caster, of the de pot police, made a thorough search of the depot and its surroundings, but failed to find any traces of the missing mails. . Nothing was discovered, how ever, till yesterday morning, when some persons found a large package of rifled letters In a nail np oue ol tue stairways on the south side of Superior street, below tbe Americau House. All tbe envelopes were missing from these from some uuaocountabie reasoo, and from the incomplete address and post marks npon the letters themselves,1 it was impossible, in many cases, to as oertain from or to whom they were sent. Many valuable papers were fouud. each as checks, drafts, money orders, dec, and these could generally be identified, owing to the strictness and care of most business men. . It waa at fir-t thought that this pack age was all taken from the pouches, but later in the ' day two other large parcels were discovered. One was fouud by Detective Schmitt, just be fore dark, in a- passage way over N. Heisel's coufo-, iiouery store, on Su perior St., a short distance from where the first was fonnd. The third pack age was found by Mr. a. lieatberstoue, lying in tbe hall, in front of the door to his bindery, JNo. 144 Mupenor street. It contained several hundred letters wrapped in a newspaper, And carefully tied np. In tbe latter ease, and proba bly iu tbe former, the parcel must have been placed there during tbe day, as it could scarcely have lain through out the day iu a frequented ball with out being discovered. It is obvious that the object of tbe villains in thus scattering the parcels, was to throw tbe officers upon the wrong track, and thns assist their own esoape. . Iu both of these two packages the envelopes were with tbe letters, although separate- - - - - Bo far as ascertained the thieves reaped a lean harvest of greenback for their pains. Indeed, mail robberies don't pay now-a-days, but little money being sent by that agency, it is in nearly all eases transmitted in money orders, checks, drafts, is., whioh, of course, are of no more value than'waste paper, to persons other than those to whom addi eased. In the first package examined, one letter was found from the boose of Jay Cooke A Co., New Yotk. signed 'Titt Cooke," which con tained an enclosure of $26. : in one of tbo others was a letter without an envel ope, dated New York, February 27, ad dressed to "S anme, and cigood "Titt, . which ruontioned an enclosnre of $80. These are all. so far as we could learn, which contained money. . Not tbe least possible cine has yet been obtained of the perpetrators of tbe bom roDoery. None of tbe pooches have been found. Cardinal Aotonelli, tbe Pope's able Prime Minister, is going to retire ou a sung fortune of sixty million francs, ($12,000 000 in gold). Tbe Cardinal'i health is also somewhat 'delicate, 1 hv ing suffered from over application to business ana money-making.
