 pens;on Frautls.--Seyeral shocking cases hf frauds on the Pension office have been dis- covered within the present year. An Attor- nrv in Kentucky, who has held respectable station in society, is now in confinement up. on such and other charges. number Of nersons in Virginia have been detected, among whom are individuals of high standing, and one member of the Legislature.

 But the most shocking case IS 10 vermont The guilty person was Robert Temple Esq formerly Pension Agent. President o' tne BanA of Rutland, and man 0f great "ea""' and the first character in that part nt tne c0""' try. Alarmed at the prospect Ot the Puo''ca- s;on of inc pensioners' names. he came to Washington, and attempted to bribe a Clerk in the office to alter the books and make out false lists for the printer, SO as to conceal ms frauds. The Clerk succeeded in drawing from him list of about sixty cases 'n which he desired alte ratons to he made or the names omitted. He promised to write under nc titious name, and left Washington. The af- fair was then disclosed by the clerk to his su- periors. and an investigation took place in the War and Treasury Departments. in which many circumstances were developed tending to strengthen the disclosures made by the Clerk. MT. Temple had been Pension Agent in Vermont, until he was removed by MaJor Eaton, when Secretary of War, and 1t was apparent that he had been playing the same game while in the service of the Government. Tshe Clerk who had made the disclosure was dispatched, with a companion, to Yer mont. to secure the arrest of Temple and ln- yestigate the case there. Alter his departure, a letter directed to him from New-York was taken out of the Post Office. incIosing a hny tlollay oote, and promising liberal reward 't he would accomplish the object. It was from Temnle. under fictitious name. This was forwarded to the District Attorney of Yer mont. under the frank 0f the Commissioner of Pensions. !,

 The messenger from Washington arrived in the vicinity of Rutland. where the United States Court was sitting, on Friday. some delay occurred in consequence Ofthe District Attorney heinz occupied ina criminal case, and they did not enter the village until night fall on Monday. and then found that Temple had committed suicide.

 1t appeared that he had observed in the Post Office the letter to the District Attorney .,nclpsne his own anonymous letter with the $50 note, and induced the Postmaster to give it to him, under pretence that he would deliv- CT it. He undoubtedly opened t, and as soon ns he saw its contents, went to his house, took his gun. and retired to his stable, and shot himself through the heart.

 The extent of his frauds is still unknown. It is ascertained that many of those for whom he has been drawing pensions are dead, and some of them died twenty years ago. Oth- CTS are supposed never to have existed. It is con;sctured the amount thus abstracted from ,the Treasury cannot be less than S4O,OO0, and is probably more.-W Washington Globe.

 A great discovery In chemistry has lately been made by Dr. Reichenhack, of Germany he having succeeded in extricating from tar and smoke a hitherto unknown substance, which he calls Kreosot, flesh preseryer. )- i,1'his substance possesses the property Of re- sisting putrefactiOn, in most eminent degree, and when diluted with water. fresh slaughter ed r:eat, after having been immersed in it for few minutes. may be kept in the open air and in the hottest weather, for any length Og time, without becoming in the least affected. This fact led several eminent physicians to ex- pertinent with tt in the treatment Of human diseases, applying 1t both internally and ex- ternally, in which they have been crowned with the most striking success. People af- ilicted with the hOrrid disease of Cancer, af-. ter haviOg been despairsd of by the most skill fnl physicians, have been completely cured nv Kreosot. For wounds and sores in gene ral. it has been found the best remedy known. ,s..as s. n. reir,,larlx, mRnded in surgical
