Albans, Aaalost LsPl((. A St. Albans letter says: "Since Jastiee Farns-wortb's return from Concord, where he was in attendance npon Page's tilal.be has been quietly at work on another thorough investigation into the Ball murder. He and others of tbe authorities have been among the residents of the French settlement to get facts, and as the Justice told one of La Page's friends, who swore be saw La Page in tbe hay field, No nonsense amino more perjury in this matter; we mean business now Tage will swing, and the first person up here who lies at this time will be prr.ntprtr arrested." This bad the etTect to bring mitithI Frenchmen their cnes, and the Justice began to renew his investigations ss to tie whereabouts of La Page on the day of Miss Ball's murder. After a careful conversation with the persons who swore that La Page was in the hay-field and also berrving on the day of tbe murder, and upon which evidence La Page was discharged, the Justice discovered that this testimony was all false; that the parties did not see him haying at all, but only beard him say he was; that they oiu noi see mm tne aay oi uie niuraw; uuu iney were not berrving with him when he claimed to have been poifoned by the iry; and furthermore, that a prescription given him tor the poison marks on uis face, he claimed, was after the murder of Miss Ball.

Tbe above is bnt a brief synopsis of what damaging perjury was practiced upon the court of investigation to thwart the course of justice, and bad these facts been given, as they should have been, at the time La Page was under arrest here, he would never have gone to New Hampshire. Coroner Fanis worth will take some steps to reach this nest of perjurers who inhabit the French settlement just beyond St. Albans Hill. It was also ascertained that La Page wore a pair of moccasins on the day of the murder, which accounts for the non-appearance of any tracks. In justice to the Albans authorities it should be stated that tho facts of La Pago having inquired about Miss Ball's habits, where she went Friday nights, the fart of his having attempted to commit an outrage on his own daughter while living near Albans, and many of the other most suspicious circumstances alluded to, tending to connect him with tbe Ball murder, never came to light until after his arrest and incarceration at Concord.

Tho St. Albans authorities bad no reason at the time to regard him with more suspicion than many others, and the examination of his case thou made elicited nothing to confirm suspicion. A PARIS SENSATION. Tbe Marambat Trial A Father Shoots the Seducer of His Daughter' and is Acquitted, tParis Correspondence St. Louis Tbe Marambat trial has been one of the sensations of tbe capital this week.

Marambat is a father who stubbed a young rascal ho had been too presumptuous with his daughter. The father was a widower and lived with his child alone in a lodging near his place of business. Young Henri Brlsat, who was Marambat's employe became the seducer of Jeanne, the daughter. When the consequences of their imprudence could no longer be hidden, the guilty daughter confessed to tbe father, who forthwith summoned the young Brisat to repair his fault by an immediate marriage. But the seducer, as in Beanmarchais play of "Kugenie," needed avast deal of urging, and at last, having affirmed that he did not think it his duty any more than that of other persons to marry the unfortunate girl, the indignant father drew a poniard and gave hini the benefit of it.

Of couisc there was a terrible sensation. Marambat became famous; ihe unlucky pair of lovers were discussed in all the journals and the affair, coming as it did upon the heels of a proposition to reform some of the social abuses which, in France, weigh with especial heaviness upon women, was made the subject of a long psychological letter by Alexandre Dumas who sustained the theory that the law ought to take more pains than it at present docs here to punish seducers. Well, Marambat, the father, was locked up for a time, then released on bail. The young nian wis not dangerously stabbed, although a prominent physician testified that his wounds ought to have proved mortal, and as he did not pursue Ihe father before tfce courts, it was easy to see that there would be no great result. 'J he matter camo up in the Assizes Monday.

There was an immense audience fine ladies, diplomats, dramatic authors, shoals of them. Dumas was not there, however, and his absence was made a subject of reproach by many journals. The father, the seducer and the daughter were heard in turn, 'i he kludge severely blamed the father for not exeieishig a proper surveillance over his daughter. The jury acquitted him, because young Kri.sat asked lor his pardon, aud the audience applauded. Tbe only person who pccnicd to have gotteu ttie worst of it was the uniortnnate daughter of Marambat.

who will shortly give birth to a child whose life ill be embittered by its hinted origin. Verily, the law gives but little protection to the weaker sex here. But it is whispered that under the republic great social re-foimsaretobe undertaken; reforms which, if carried out, will change the whole social character of the people. THE IYRIC STAGE.

Baked Beans the Devil's Food." Front the ebieaga Tribune. A Masf achusetts preacher, the Rev. Edwin Bromley, of the Baptikt Church at Norwood, has flown in tbe tace nt ew England traditions and customs by warning bis congregation that baked beans are the Devil's food," aud advising them not to partake of tbem. While the reverend gentleman is crediting tbe Devil with most excellent taste, it seems to have bad no effect upon his flock, who are inclined to laugh at their shepherd and call him bilious. Our readers will remember that some time since we took occasion to warn the clergy against tbe free use of beans on Sunday morning, but we believe this is tbe first time a clergyman ltas publicly warned bis peo ple against incur use.

it is an tne more surpruung iBce ttaia bas happened in tbe very State where baked beans were invented, and where the savory scHleat has given tone to theology evea from the day ef the lathers.
