 istration, gives us the following account of the operations of that pure, patriotic, and to- ! be-pitied Treasury Financier, Reuben N. | Whitney:

 "It is not above eight or ten weeks since, that he gave a most splendid party, declar- ing that it should eclipse any party given in Washington during the same winter. Nat ural and artificial flowers were strewed m prolusion about the supper table; and lights were dazzling, and the music was surpassing. The cost of the supper was said, at the time, to be above $1O00, yet in his schedule he re- 1 turns the whole value of his property, conSis- ting of carriages, horses, plate, and furniture, us only 5000 dollars. So that tho supper cost him about one-third of what he was worth in property. His schedule of his debts is very terrific. To ono creditor (l. Gates & Co. of Canada) he owes above 4l,WO dol lars and to u firm in Philadelphia, (Wiggns & Col 95,OO0 dollars; and to the rest ot his creditors his schedule shows him to be in- debted to the amount of nearly 60.OOO dol lars. This is an alarming debtor and cred itur account for one who Is supposed to have been basking for some years in the sunshine of Executive patronage, and to have enjoyed unusual money facilities in consequence ot the position he had occupied in reference to the Deposite Banks. It is hard to account

On another occasion, he commaD- ded three of the white women to proceed. oo a Sabbath day, to a neighboTing church | where communion was about to be admins tered, to upset the table, scatter the vessels and drink up the wine. Accordingly, at the proper hour, they entered the house singing and dancing as they proceeded, and perform ed the duty assigned them.

 These outrages incensed the neighborhood, and it was secretly determined by few who had imbibed an attachment to the code of Judge Lynch, to present the whole household with a coat of tar and feathers. For this purpose, some ten or twelve young men blackened their faces and otherwise disguis- ed themselves, and proceeded at late hour on Monday or Tuesday night of last week, to Sweets house, which they entered, seized se- verdi of the inmates, (among whom was SWeeD covered their bodies with tar, and then feathered them with the contents of a bed which they took from the house for that purpose.

 The intruders then retired but again soon returned, and stole large quantity of maple sugar, with which they decamped. On ma king their second visit, one of the disguised gentlemen was recognized, and the next day arrested, examined, and bound over for trial. During the examination, the females re- peatedly declared their belief in the divine character of "their lord,'' as they called him, and their obligation to obey him implicitly. We have not heard the result of the subse- quent examination, nor whether any disposi- tion has been made of the impostor who has been instrumental in establishing this new creed in Cayuga.-RocheSter Democrat. | A Church Mouse.-For some weeks past the pews in various churches of different de- nominations have been frequently robbed of bibles and prayer-books, psalm and hymn books, the thief selecting those only which were the most elegant and costly: and one day last week he went into the Chauncey- place Church, and stole the splendid folio bi-
