A NAHBATITE OF WOMAN'S PLUCK AND EN ERGY. Oorrupondene of the Detroit Port. Charlotte. Jnne 1. A few weeks since a brief notice appeared In the Eaton County papen announcing the death of one of a couple of old ladle residing in the Township of Kalamo, who had moved Into the woods when that sountry wu almost In wilderness, and cleared them up a farm and cultivated it Just the "lords ot creation arc In the baait of doing.

They were known In the eom- munltji "the old maids," or as "Aunt Rachel" and "aunt Samantha." Thinking their history might se read with some Interest by those wbo admin cmck and believe in woman's right to enter any field ofj labor she chooses, I called upon the surviving partner of this heroic couple sod gleaned from her tne following brief account of their lives Their names wen Rachel Mitchell and RsmnnUit Wymaii.

Aunt Raehei tbe survivor, waa born at Monmouth, May 1 1, and ia, therefore, now a little past 70, an 1, thoush bronzed with the outdoor labor incident to tbe life of the hardy pioneer, she possesses none that coarseness of manners that we might be apt to picture to ourselves in a woman who, for nearly a third of a century, had not only bnved all of trie rtvntiona and hardahlD of our noble frontier womei but had actually endured tbe labor of the fcardy froatlenman herself. Aunt Samantha, wbo died A jrll 13, was born In Vermont, May 31. 1811.

Thel fathen had both died while they were but Infant 1, and tbey, like other glrJs under like circumstance 1, wen early forced to labor for their own suppoi t.

On their tint acquaintance 1 unusual attachment sprang up between than, prhleh continued until death recently broke the tic thst bound them.

Raehei learned the tailor-ess tra lie of Samantha, and for years together they piled be needle without a thought of the rude farm life In tton for them. They entered into a life partners ll almost on their first acquaintance, though no writ ve contract to thst effect was ever drawn up. Ia a iswer to the question as to whether then was not i-o ne disappointed love affair eoaneeled with thla tl range union, and whetherHhere ever wm any spec a agreement that they should remain tingle.

Fernando Wood Is the oceanant and part owner of a handsome house, surrounded by grounds tastefully laid out.

The house partly blockades West Seventy-seventh-street and partly Eleventh-avenue, on whleh avenue a stable, claimed by Congressman Wood his, also trenches. From the front and from the north side of the house a well-kept lawn stretchesoverthe line of Seventy-Mventh-treet down to the Boulevard. The four blocks bounded by the Boulevard. Riverside Drive. Seventy -Sixth and Seventy-eighth streetA, and In terse ted by Eleventh-avenue and Seventy-seventh-street, sre inclosed by fences, and huge gates blockade Eleventh-avenue at Seventy sixth and Seventy-eighth streets, and Seven ty -seven th-street at Riverside-avenue.

Tbe property within these gates and fences Is not all claimed by Mr. Wood. Four lots, situated almost In the middle of It on the north-west corner of and Eleventh-avenue are owned by Michael H. Cashman, who has for a long time been fighting in the courts to obtain the right of free access to them. In November, 1S65.

Seventy-seventh-street, and tu April, 174. Eleventh-avenue, were formally snd legally opened, Mr. Wood was awarded for tbe damage that wonld be done to his property by the actual opening of the streets. He wm allowed, after receiving tae money, to keep up his and no steps were taken the proper author-ties to give the public the privilege of using the streets for whose opening It paid. Tbe taking of such steps would neeesiitate the demolition of a part of Mr.

Wood's houae, and of a part et hit stable. Uenee, Mr. Wood has enjoyed for years the use of the compensatory damages awarded him, and the occupancy of a house which had been purchased In part from him. Ko ordinances have been passed by tbe Common Council for the grading and pavlc( of the streets that run through his original estate. Several months ago Mr.

Mlrhscl H. Csshman began an action In the Court of Common Pleas for a mandamus to compel the Commissioner of Public Works to remove the obstructions that prevent the putiic uc of Seventy-seventh street and Eleventh-avenue. The ease wm argued before Judge Joseph P. Daly, in the (special Ti-rm, by Thomas Allison for Csshman. and by Assistant Corporation Counsel Iean for the Commissioner of Public Works.

Judge Daly kspt the matter under consideration until yesterday, when he rendered a decision. He denies the relief asked for so far as It Involves an order which would practically amount to a direction to the Commissioner of Public Works to fully open Seventy, seventh-street and Eleventh-avenue to public travel. The complaint mado against the Commissioner, he holds, would be better against the Corporation, whose dnty it is to open and grade public streets, and maintatn them in a proper state for pnbllo travet "The relator," says Judge Daly, "is deprived of his ecsement In these streets by the neglect of the Corporetion to open them, and the boar to set in motion Is the Common Council, under whose ordinance the Commissioner may aafely and regularly proceed. I sup-poM the duty of the Common Council in this regard may be enforced, as other duties may be, by mandamus." In conclusion. Judge Daly says: "But a portion of the relief Mked for eannot reasonably be withheld.

The central portions of Seventy-seveath-street and Eleventh-avenue are occupied by private lanes, or roads, fit for travel, but which are closed by gsteways obstructing the relator access to hla lota. These gates must he removed, and so mast the fences that Immediately Inclose his property. A mandamus to that effect will be granted." OFFICER FINNEGAN'S COMPLAINT. ACQUITTAL OF THE SHOE-MAKER WHOM HE PURSUED, SHOT, AND ARRESTED. Charles Bermaler, a German shoe-maker, living In Allen-street, was placed on trial In the General Sessions Court yesterday for feloniona assault with Intent to kill.

The complainant was Officer WUllam Finnepan, of the Seventeenth Precinct, who bore on hla face the evidence of the asMult, In the shape of an ngly sear extending from his left eye to his chin. The officer testified that on the morning of the 23d nit. he noticed Bermaier acting rather auspiciously In Tompkins square, and followed him to Avenue and Tenth-street. Here Bermaler stood still, the officer made an attempt to lay hands on him to find out whift he wm about. The shoe-maker immediately drew a knife, he said, and stabbed him in the cheek, indicting the wound wnich was still visible.

He then ran off, and tbe officer followed, calling npon him to stop. He took no notice of the command, but continued his Bight, whereupon Finnegan fired a shot over his head to scare him. Tbe shoemaker stopped, and the officer, rapping tor assistance, wm reinforced by a ronndt man and a detective. Bermaler was arrested and taken to the station-house, where a shoe-knife full of blood-stains wu found In his pocket. Offlcer Finnegan's testimony wm corroborated by Roundsman Sehwenk and le-tective The prisoner took the tand in his own defense, and testified, throush an interpreter, that he wu returning iiome from a party on the night in question when he heard footstep behind him.

and on looking heck Officer Fmnegan following him. lie stepped aside to let the officer pas, when the latter, without a word of provocation, truck him on the head with his clab, telling him to the ground. On jumping to his feet, he tried to get away from the officer, and ran backward crying "murder." with uplifted club, and believing that the officer would kill him he drew his knife and stabbed him in self-defence. The roundsman and detective then appeared upon the scene, and witness surrendered. Finnegan.

however, did not desist, but drawing his revolver fired, the bullet entering his left hand, where It still remained. As the roundsman and detective came nearer, Offietr Finnegan. alluding to witness, said, "Is this the maul" and on being answered in the negative he stopped using hla elub. The prisoner showed the jury where Officer Finnegan's ballet had entered his hand, and hla manner bore the Impress of truth. The jury found the prisoner not guilty a verdict which wss concurred in by Assistant District Attorney Herring, who was of opinion that the evidence haJ shown no reason why the officer should have interfered with theshoo-maker.

ROBBED TA TR USTED BOOK-KEEPER SWilTDLINQ THE EMPLOYER WHO HAD BEFRIENDED HIM AND HIS FAMILY. Frank Vallero, a Cuban, employed as bookkeeper for Michael E. l)anlels, of the firm of ll. E. Daniels real estate brokers.

No. 19 University-place, absconded yestotday after robbing his employers. Two months ago Mr. Daniels advertised for a book-keeper, and Valioro answered. He claimed to be a first-clasa accountant, and told a piteous story about the destitution of himself, lis wife, and two children.

He offered his services for $7 a week. He got the airuatlon on trial, and proved to be all that wm desired. His employers became much attached to him, advanced him money, field the moving expenses of his family from Brook-j-n, him a suit ot rooms at No. 33 East Tenth-street, and partly furnished them for him. After a couple of months' service, Vallero was implicitly trusted in the office, and had the collection of the rents given to him.

Mr. M. E- Daniels, snticipating a busy dsy yesterday, bad several blank checks In the firm's check-book, signed and laid away In a locked drawer in the office. He found Vallero in the office attending to business in the morning, and left htm there to go down to the lower part of the City. When he returned to the office in the afternoon, he found it filled with people wniting to be attended to, but he eould not find Vallero.

Sending to hla rooms, he learned that the book-keeper and hi family had fled, and taken all their household good with them. The desk-drawer in the office was found broken open, and several of tie cheeks oa the Bank of the Metropolis, with the firm's signature on them were gone. Inquiry at the bank showed that Vallero had called there and got one of the checks, filled up for $176, cashed. What he did with the other cheeks could not be ascertained. It was also learned that Vallero had been systematically falsifying bis accounts, and it is believed thttt a final examination of his affaire will show that he had robbed and swindled Messrs.

Daniels 4 Co. of a very large amount. Mr. Daniels, soon as he became eon-vlneed of the cause of Vallero's disappearance reported the ease at the Police Central Office, and Inspector Thoroe sent out a general alarm, describing the Cuban to be about 33 Years of age, 5 feet 7 inches in height, with dark balr. heavy black mustache, gray eyes, heavily built, aad dressed ia black, aad ordering his arrest.

THS CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST A CATTL-DEALER SIMON HOSES DISCHARGED. A decision has just been rendered by United Statee Commissioner Osborn Involving questions of Interest and Importance both to creditors and to the legal profession. In December.

1877, Simon Mosec, wbo was then largely engaged In business a dealer la cattle, failed, and made a general assignment of all his property to his brother-in-law, Jacob Roeeafteld, in trust for tne benefit of his creditors. His debts at the time amounted to about $60,000, and the assets which were delivered to the Assignee, to less than $10,000. Afterward, on the 27th of June, 1878, Moms filed his petition, and wm adjudicated a bankrupt, John H. Piatt being appointed his Aaaignee in Bankruptcy. Xo assets whatever cams into the hands of Mr.

Piatt, and In January last Messrs. W. IL A A. U. Monroe, of Albsny, from whom Moses had, within two dsyt before his failure, bought cattle to the amount of $20,000, without paying any portion ot the price, began proceedings against Moses, under the criminal provisions of the Bankrupt law, charging him with having mutilated his books of account, and also with having concealed from his Assignee In bankruptcy soma $10,000.

Moses waa arrested, acd held to ball In $15,000. His counsel demanded an examination, which was had, and bu been progressing for several months put. On ths part of the iovernmeat, it was proved that within a tew days prior to hla failure in business Mom received some $45,000, but a small portion of which (leu than was shown to bars been paid nut by him. It was also proved tbat the only Meet delivered by Moses to his general Assignee (Rosen-field) were trifling in amount, and of a comparatively worthless nature. It wm also clslmed that some months before the commencement of the bankruptcy proceedings the book of account kept by Moses were mutilated acd la part destroyed.

Upon the dose of the case Messrs. Frank R. Lawrence and Louis C. Waehner, counsel for Moses, made a motion, which was very elaborately argued, for the discharge of the a censed, claiming that in point of fact there was no proof of his guilt, as it wm not shown that the mutilation of the books wss done by him, and that the books when purchased by him were already second-hand books; and as to the money charged to be concealed. It was not shown thst Moses had not devoted It to honest purposes.

It wss also elalmed as a matter of law that the mutilation of books hsving taken place before the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings, the criminal sections of the Bankrupt law were not applicable, upon the theory that the Bankrupt law nag no retroactive effect. In support of this view, the ease of the United States Sagtilnst Fox, decided by the United States Supreme Court in October. 1875, wm cited. As to the other branch of the ease, the point wm urged that the general assignment to Rose-jfield, In December, 1877. conveyed to him the title of all Moses's then property, and that no matter whether the actual possession' was delivered to Kosen field or not, the property became legally his, even if it remained Moses possession.

It wm claimed also, that this being so, the Assignee in Bankruptcy took so legal interest In the property charged to ba concealed, and that the general aulgnment to Rosenfield, having been made more than alx months before the commencement of the bankruptcy proceedings, eould not be assailed by the Assignee in Bankruptcy, and that, therefore, it could not be held that any property was concealed from him by the accused. The decision of Commissioner Osborn fully sustains these views, holding that there is no legal proof ot the commission by Moses of the acts ehanred, and also, that even If there ware such proof, the legal grounds urged by his counsel are valid, and that under the numerous authorities cited he is entitled to his discharge, wbich has accordingly been granted. Mr. O. A.

Seixaa appeared on behalf of the ttorernment Messrs. Lawrence A Waehner on behalf of the accused. CURIOUS BUSINESS METHODS. DECISION OF A3f ARBITRATION CASE THAT INTERESTED COTTQN-B ROKERS. A dispute has just been decided by arbitration at tbe Cotton Exchange that has given rlae to more feeling among brokers and dealers In the staple than any ease that has arisen for a long time.

Since the recent suspension of Williams, Birnle A and the failure of Williams to settle that firm's contracts he had promised, many complications have oecured on account ot the eagerness of creditors to snap up balance uppoed to belong to the concern whenever discovered. In one instance It was learned that a certain broker had been overpaid $4,000 by the firm, and instantly there were a More ot claims for the money. The broker, however, claimed thst he had returned the amount, and the disappointment was great. Early in March Mr. J.

H. Baggott, a small broker, sold to William. Black a wealthy house. 100 bales of September cotton at 10 19-100 cents per pound. He immediately wrote a letter to them offering to give np Williams, Birnie Ss Co.

his principals. William. Black Co. refused to accept the latter, and called tbe "original margin" of $5 per bale, which wm duly deposited. The contrast ran on! and sotton continuing to advance, Mr.

Baggott wm compelled to follow it up by the deposit of additional margins ner-iflcates representing $2,157 were in tae custody of the Farmers' Loan and Trust Com- acy. On May 29 the contract was closed out by he ordinary method of a ring on the bMls of 13 73-1 OO cents par pound, and Mr. Baggott settled his Indebtedness to Williams, Black Co. by handing them his personal check for $1, 100. On the 2d Inst, he sent a elerk with the certificates of deposit from the Farmers' Loan and Trust Company for their indorsement.

The messenger was told that they were very busy just then, and to return in half an hour. He did so, and was informed that their Mr. Hayes, who attended to that sort ot business, was out, and was Mked to come bsck in 15 minutes. When he returned tbe second time be was told that William, Black 4 Co. had decided to hold the certificate against the indebtedness of Williams, Btrnie is Co.

to them. While he had been absent they had taken the certl-sates to Superintendent Powers, of the Cotton Exchange, and by representing them at their property, got him to indorse them. Mr. Baggott had previously Indorsed $1,457 worth of them. They then took them to the Formers' Loan and Trust Company and obtained a check for that amount.

The remaining $700 worth, which they wen unable to cash, they kept. Mr. Baggott had a large number ot short contracts out, and being dependent upon thia money to keep up bia marcina, was compelled to close them all cut at a loss. Ho applied at once tor a short" arbitration, urging this latter fact, and three davs were glven.Wllliam, Black Co. to answer.

They chose E. F. Valentine, and Mr. Baggott, H. M.

Le Count, Mr. R. P. Salter acting as umpire. Both parties were represented by eounseL Mr.

Baggott told the story ot the transaction as given above. He oharged thai the conduct of Williams, Black Co. throughout. Including ihe refusal to accept Williams. Birnle Se Co.

name, was influenced by a desire to erutn him on account of an old feud ex-lstent between them. Williams. Black A Co. introduced no evidence. Their counsel, on cross-examination, endeavored to trace the money represented by tbe certineatee to Williams, birnie as but thia Mr.

Bagirott stoutly denied. He also put Mr. Birnie on tbe stand, who swore that he never had anything to do with the transaction, and never put np a dollar of margin on it. He said he had given Mr. Baggott, in a general way, the right to use his name whenever he found himself in a tight place with William, Black knowing tba feelinc between tbe two, and he had been informed of the offer in this cms and ot the refusal to accept, Yesterday the arbitrators announced their decision, wliish wss unanl-moua.

They ordered Williams, Black Co. to Indorse the $700 of eertifiisater, and to band them over to Mr. Baggott, togethar with their check tor $1,457. DEATH THROUGH ALLEGED NEGLIGEKCE. Pierce J.

Dr. Chapman, refused to give a death certificate because he believed that tha child's death was accelerated by the negligence cf its mother.

100 to hla brother Benjamin and Ellas Buell, each to his sister Abigail Buell. 10. children of bis mother by the second marriage to his brother Samuel Buell, 5 to his sister Hannah Kimball. 5, children by his step-fatber, Peter Buell's lint marriage, aad to the Seoond Society at Coventry for schools, 200. Capt.

Noah Grant ton ot Noah and Martha, married Susan Delano, bad (our children, namely Noah, Peter, Solomon, and Susannah. Noah, the son. married widow Anna Richardson, BuelL daughter of Abel Buell, bora Aug. 17, 1733, and had two sons, Solomon and Peter Grant, He then removed to Western Pennsylvania. The letter of Jesse R.

Grant, read In connection with the foregoing, become Intelligible, and may ba readily an-dentood. The compilations of Mr. Boell show frequent intermarriages of the Porters, Grease, aad Bkclls down to a very late period. Following is the above-mentioned letter from Jesse R. Grant.

CovuiOTOx, Ky, Jan. 10, 1866. J. 8. BuelL DiabSie: I left here on the 16th of August tor Galena, 11 and at Chisago I met Gen.

Grant aad suite. I traveled with him oa his North-western tour until we brought np at Chicago again, three weeks after, when I returned home. On my return I found quite a lot of letters whleh had beea re-oetved during my absence. Last evening I by accident picked np your letter dated the day I left home, which by some means escaped my observation. That must be accepted my excuse for so long a delay in answering your letter.

Your letter removes some mysteries that I eould aot well eecoant for. I had supposed the names la the will were in the order of their ages, and that that would make Hannah the youngest, and that she must have been married to nave ner name changed to Kimball. I thought that the youngest of Peter Bcell'a shlldren eould not be old enough to be married at tba date of Solomon Grant wiU, Sept, 8, 176. It also accounts for their getting bat 5. while the other Buells got 20.

I will now reply well I can to some of year Inquiries. I do aot know the maiden name, aor tbe date ot her birth, of widow Martha Grant, her first husband wa named Noah. He was born In 1692, but I have loct the day and month. They were married about 1716. Their first son.

Noah, who was my grandfather, and Lieut Solomon Grant were killed in battle Sept, 20. 1756. My grandfather, Noah, was born about 1717, and waa probably married la 1743, aa my father, their oldest child, wm born July 4, 1744. My father's name wm also Noah. So you will see the first-born for three generations were Noah, and we are still keeping up the name of Noah.

My grandfather left a widow and three children Noah, (my father,) Peter, and Susan. Under the British law my father Inherited all the property ot bia father and the entailed estate of Lien. Solomon. At that it is said Peter took offense and went to sea, and waa probably lost, he was never beard of after. Hasan became insane at 18, and remained so until she wm 7U.

She wm then restored with a greatly shattered mind, and soon after died. I do not know the maiden name of my grandmother. When I was in Connecticut In 1834 I got that aad several other facta which I wonld like to have aow, but I can't lay my hand on my diary ia which I made the entry. My father married a widow Rlehardson (she WMAnna Boell, daughter of Abel Buell) about 1777 had two sons, Solomon and Peter. When his wife died, about 1790, he took his youngest boy, 8 to 10 yean old, and moved to Western Pennsylvania, where he married my mother, Raehei Kelly, 4th March, '91 She aad seven children Suan.

It has been the fortune of my boy to whip them all In battle. The rebellion has broken them as. In June. 1820. I came to Southern Ohio and aettled In Clermont County.

I wm then past 26, and thought It time to take a wife, and In Jane. 1021, I married a Mia Hannah late from near Philadelphia. On the 27th of April. 1822, our erst child was bora. His history Is well before tbe world.

Our seoond, Samuel Simpson, wm bora Sept. 23, 1825, and died Sent. 13, 1861. Clnny wm bora 11th of December, and died 7th of March, 1865. Virginia wm bora 20th of February.

139. My ether two son were educated for business, and excelled other basinets men mneb as Ulysses did other Generala. They are well known In Buffalo by hardware merchants and leather dealers. In early life I was extremely poor, aad as I Knew I wm forced to obtain my bread by the sweat of the brow, 1 eul about for some ealling that wonld promise the best support, and, as I still think, wisely Mlected the tanning business and as I mada it a paying operation, I wm able to retire at 60 yeara of age with an ample competency. Although I am within a few days of 72.

I have almost negray hairs, lost nearly no teeth, but little wrinkled, and retain the color of earlier years, and eould walk 20 miles without aay special inconvenience, Youra moat truly, JESSE R.
