Dr. Wills, of ihe Western Presbyterian church, was not on account of inadequate support, as has is en stated, but that the real cause was some unchristiaulikc on part of Dr.

ills, and these rumors have fcuiid their way into print. Dr. ills did not cfficiate in the church on Sunday morning and Ins place was filled Kev. Mr. Whittlesey.

The pastor's absence was. however, caused by indisposition and not because of the rumors, for he had iatended to have preached sermon on that morniRg. but because iiidisposition of himself and of his son iie was detained. His absence was taken by some to a tacit admission that some of the many stories atioat were true. After diligent it would appear that these stories have i.u foundation whatever, and are merely the rumors which are so eagerlv circulated to the disadvantage of preacliers ast evening the ladies of his church held a a meeting to consider the subject, and a resolution was unanimously adopted, that the article in a morning paper reflecting on the character of ir pastor.

The prisoner alleged that he had been charged with obtaining money by false pretenses at Washington and admitted to bail; that he did not surrender himself, but escaped to England, and had since been traveling about the country, in the Liverpool, Welsh, and Shropshire districts. He was now destitute and had re solved to go to the United States. In answer to interogatories, the prisoner said he was not guiltv of forgery.

A copy of the indictment, the forged '1 i having been put in, the prisoner was committed for the usual fifteen days, preparatory to his removal to Ame. MOULTON CAREER in WASHINGTON. Moulton was formerly a clerk in the Second Auditor's office and afterwards a grocer on 14th street northwest, but embarked in the real ostate business and was supposed at one time to l-e doing the leading business here as a real estate agent and note broker. In September, 1876the left his office, in the basement of Le Droit building, on and Htii streets, and on his ereditois making inquiries and examining their securities a number found them to worthless. Moulton was followed by Dr.

one of his creditors, to Richmond, and thence to Petersburg, where the pursuer lost the trail of the pursued and returned to this rity without him. It was mentioned at the time that Moaiton's creditors lost as high as 0,000 by his defalcation, and efforts were made to get a clue to his whereabouts, but it was not until January following that he returned to the city, and "then in as mysterious a manner he left it. Efforts were made to ascertain where he had been, but he declined to give any information, but promised that he would make arrangements to settle up with his creditors. Francis Prott, of 7th street, one of the creditors, on the 31st of January procured a warrant charging Moulton with having, on the 25th of September previous, fiiiWJ from him by false means of a check drawn by him (Moulton) on the Second National Bank, here he had no funds. On this warrant Moulton was arrested and committed to jail to await trial.

A fewnays afterwards, I'rott, on going to the jail and interviewing Moulion. concluded to go on his bond. Moulton promised, if he got out. to arrange with his creditors by transferring his property, ami I'rott, with G.T.Chase, John II. McDaniels and II.

At June term of the Criminal Court another indictment was found charging him ith having forged name of Milton Ford to a note for and a bench warrant was issued on it. but it was returned, "Not to be found." Some months since the sureties on the bondMr. I'rott in inquiries as to the whereabouts of Moulton.

and ascertaining that he had left the country, communication was had with the detective officers of Europe, particularly with the Scotland yard force. It was ascertained that after having spent some time in England he went to France and to Spain, but finding it difficult to get along in the latter place he returned to Paris, and subsequently to England. Mr. Prott about two months since went to England with a bail piece to apprehend him. ami, after spending two weeks in London, he failed to find his man, and returned, reaching home in December.

The only tidings he got of him was from a former Wa'shiugtonian, who about three weeks before had seen him in London. Mr. Prott left the papers with a justice, as also a reward of and, as will be seen by the dispatch Moulton has surrendered, and lie will likely be returned heroin the early part of next month. The Labor Kvcliange. MEETING OF THE HOARD OF MANAGERS.

The board of managers of the Labor Exchange met last night, Mr. M. G. Emery in the chair, and J. H.

Wall as secretary. On motion of Mr. Solomons, the secretary was instructed to employ some person to record the minutes of the former meetings in a journal. Mr. from the special committee to whom had been referred tin- subject of expending a certain sum to relieve cases of extreme poverty, stated that the committee were not in favor of such an appropriation, as it was expressly stated at the commencement of the exchange that its object was NOT TO At.MS, HI WORK.

He said there were thirty-six charitable and mutual benefit institutions in the District, and stated how. difficult it was to reach them, in consequence of the stringency of their rules and regulations. The report closed by recommending that such citizens as are interested in alleviating the distress of the poor be requested to organize themselves into charitable organizations to ascertain the wants of their respective locations, and to co-operate with the Labor Exchange iu its efforts to help the poor. The report of the almoners for the county showed that the work was well systematized in the section outside the city under the plan of districting it. The report also recommended that the city lie divided into similar sections.

and that persons be appointed to see after each section and co-operate with the exchange, and that a circular be sent to all charitable institutions, inquiring to what extent they will act with the exchange. Mr. Solomons thought that a call should be made to the presidents of THE VARIOI CJIAKITABI.E ORGANIZATIONS, and that they should meet and apportion the District into sections. Mr. Marks thought there would be difficulty in satisfying all of the heads of such societies, and they would find that some ould not cooperate.

Dr.C. C. Cox said such a combination would irove of no practical service in many cases. Ie thought the different denominations could better take care of their own poor, and that the Exchange should raise a fund for the judicious relief of those really suffering who would not come under the cognizance of such organization by a subscription of $1 per month por capita. Mr.

R. Smith said the tenor of the discussion was foreign to the original intent of the Exchange, ruder their principles they should not attempt to mix a gratuitous charity ith the compensating principle first adopted. Mr. Marks moved that the presidents of the different charitable institutions lie invited to meet the Exchange, to take under consideration the general subject of charity. Dr.

Cox moved to amend bv inviting several prominent citizens to be added to the list; agreed to. and the resolution was adopted. The eiiair Monday evening, January 21. for the meeting. GOING TO CONGRESS FOR AID.

The men who were injured by the caving in of one of the defective arches a few days since are all doing well; neither of them were seriously injured. Three of these arches are to be rebuilt at once, and it is probable that the others will have to undergo a strengthening process. They were not constructed under the present building inspector.

Commissioners have given orders to the inspector of buildings to remove all the segment arches spanning the rooms in the new workhouse (eight in number) and rebuild them on the plan of two intermediate arches in place of each, making 18 new arches altogether of smaller size. This has been done in consequence of defects having been found in the principle or plan on which they were built, the walls not being of sufficient capacity to suppost them. Beautiful.

Sun, A Litti.e Girl's Fatal Wytheville (Va.) Enterprise, of the 5th nays: "On Friday before Christmas a little girl aged six years, daughter of Mr. Alfred Copenhaver. who lives near Mount Airy depot, was thrown from a horse and instantly killed. Some members of the family, it seems, had been out riding, and three horses were hitched near the gate. A brother of the little girl unhitched two of the horses and started with them to the stable: another brother, yielding to the request of his sister, put her on the remaining I horse, and starting it toward the stable rej turned to the house.

The horse, it is supposed, started at a pretty fast gait to overtake the ones which had preceded it. when the little one lost her balance and fell off. When her brother returned from the stable he found her i lying on the road dead." Burglars Break into a House, and are Frightened Off by the Corpse of the telegram from Trenton. N. singular attempt at burglary was made yesterday morning at the house of John Fenner, in Fair street, in the suburbs.

On the day previous Mr. Feuner had died, and his corpse was lying in a front room, well lighted but closely curtained. The burglars forced an entrance in the rear by cutting out a windowpane and raising the sash. Passing through the dining room and ball, the burglars moved stealthily along and turned the knob of the parlor door. Directly in front of them lay the corpse, the drowsy watchers reclining on -a lounge at the other side of the apartment.

One of the burglars was surprised into an oath of astonishment, and, closing the door, made a rush for the dining-room, where, with his comrade, he escaped tlirough the open window.
