The Exploits of John H. Miller in Ne
England and Elsewhore--Bagged a
Last.
Presidont Hayes, through thi
attorney-general, has received a re
quest for te proper papers to ex
tradito John Baggs Hopper, now ii
jail at St. John, New Brunswick
Concerning this precious rascal, wh<
was so well known in South Carolim
under the name of John H. Miller
I the Springfield (Mass.) Republica
has the following :
The arrrost of John Baggs Hop
per, alias John Miller, Maj. Johi
Thomas, and Charles Chapman, a
St. John, N. B., the other day, fo:
forgery, brings up the career of i
very remarkable swindler. Spring
field know him .under the name o
Thomas, and ho has "done" Nov
England very thoroughly. Here h<
put up principally at the Massassoi
Houso, but after%Vard was at Mrs
Evans' boarding-houso. J-Ie sough
to know our "best people," was I
patron of several neighborhoot
partios and picnics, his lituro ii
said to hang in the display madi
before Moffatt's gallery, and h
made for a timo altogether a cofi
spicuous figuro in tho city. He wal
hero for quite a stay last January
and returned again in the early sum
mer for another little visit. Hq
came sometimes to the RepIblican
editorial rooms to read the Southeri
papers, talked interestingly of poli
tics, and was altogether a fascinat,
ing person. Thomas is perhaps jus
turned forty ; of medium height
stout build and a little inclined t<
be portly, wei,ghing about two hun
dred pouinds. His head is shapel,
with ai incipient bald spot arouni
his dark hair, which is cut short
but not closo, and has a little wav<
in it. His complexion is healthil,
florid, and he wears a handsom
dark moustache ; his eye is bright
his manner frank, intelligent anC
attractive.
So much for the man. His careci
of crino and scandal has been indus
trious and eventful. Hopper wai
born in Queen Anne county, Md.
where he married a Miss Millor
daughter of the local minister, b,
whom he had two children. Jus
beforo the opening of the war hi
forged heavily, deserted his famil
and fled South. After the war h
turned up at Augusta, Ga., havinq
assumed the name of his deserto(
wife. Miller, as wo must now cal
him, was agent for two -insuranc
companies, which he swindled in i
dozen years out of about $60,001
by forgery and embezzlement ; hi
also mlarried1 another wife, by whon
he had flvo children., Miller finalla
paissed forged notes oil James d
B3ailie & Bros., intimate friends, ant
left Aug usta. H-e next turned u]
at Newv Orleans, and, with tile helj
of a pal, victimized a Catholic bisho]
out of $30,000. He is though
to have gone thence to Cali
fornia, but turned up in Nov
England last January. He livet
handsomely at tile Boston Re
vore House, and came to WVorcestor
and this city as Major Thomas. H<
was a somewat notable attraction a
Martha's Vineyard last seasony be
ing accompanied by a young and
stunning woman who claimed to be
rich Buffalo (N. Y.) widow, and th<
pair gave thle most elegant entertain
Imonts possible. About this tim<t
Major Thomas won tihe confidenc<
and( money of a Spiingfleld drum
mor, and lho proved a "lady-killer
to the disgust of certain gentlemem
from this part of the conutry, it il
said. It is also thought that h<
was concerned in tile big diamonm
robberies that took place at th<
Vineyard about this time. u
Thomas wvas recognized by an Augus
ta (Ga.) man, to whom he explained
r that lhe assumed his present name be
cause bo was living with a womai
not his wife. The swindled Augus
ta parties were notified, and th
chase after the forger began whia]
has just enIded in his captiure.
*Those who knew Thomas in thi
city say theyare not surprised at hi
Sgreat success as a rogue. He has
a most retentive miemoery, was ac
'complishled, studiously polite an<
> carefully agreeable. He ratho
overdid the businass at first, so al
to bring suspicion upon himself, bu

ALL ABOUT THA;
The Cu> that Cheers but never Inebri
Etes.
A writer in an 6xchafigd has the
following to say about tea :
The nose is one of thn
best judges foi distinguishing
good tel, and how to preparo
tea properly art teaches us.
To obtain a hoverage very aromatic
and onl ill it rinial degree astrin
gent you must infuse the tea for
half an hour in a very small quantity
of cold water, and then add tho
fboilig water, pouring the tea, be
fore it is very brown, into the cup.
The cold water saturates the whole
textulo of the leaves and produces
b the sime advantages as when we
wish to obtain good broth from
butcher's meat, and the boiling
water separates the tainin from tid
caffeine, which is precipitated when
t the infusion begins to grow cold.
In offect, if yon take tea in the
Russian fashion, in a drinking glass,
you will see the tea grow turbid
alost as soon ats it is poured out.
I think it is wise to take only the
first infusion, which contains from
four to six times as much useful
substanco as the second. This last
has the inconvenienco of being only
in a very small degree aronatid and
in a high degrme astringent. Tho
addition of a fev drops of lemon
juice, or of any -other vegetable
acid, renders tea more exciting;
and this custom prevails among
Spoor Chinese and manyi Russians.
The addition of an alkali5 on the
contrary, makes tea less stinulating
- and im some imeasure narcoticalh
In Chinese Tartary, -in Cashniere,
t and in other countries of Asia, the
leaven of tea are eaten, cooked in
3 various miodos with butteri flour
anld soda, ahd the richness of thi
leaves in albumine explains their
nutritive power. It is said ill the
travels of Hue, Cabet, Atchterlony
and others, that a good soup of tea
is one of the best lliuents for those
about to undertake fatiguilngt joUr
neys in lofty mountains Tea ex
cites the movements of the heart
less than coffee, is less hostile to
sleep, and is less fit to sustain in
L tollectual labor ; but more than
3 coffee it increases the eliminative
r activity of the skin mid respiration.
3 More than everything, experience
aviileth to indicato to any on
I wiether, from the state of his
I nervos, his brain or his digestion,
he ought to prefer tea or coffee.
In every fashion it seems to be
) proved tha.ft after dinnor til
a Chinese leaf ought to be preferred
1 to tihe Abyssinian berry. In very
cold countries and on1 very cold
.days, and consequently with su
I preme reason in the Arctic zone, tea
) is tile best of drinks, as all travelers
have demnonstrated. Dr. Kane did
3 not hesitate to call tea the "great
L panacea of Arctic travel." The cx,
,cessive use of tea, ospecially green
tea, pr'oduces obAtinato wake fulnIess,
I nervous trembl ings, convulsions,
-cramps of the stomnach, palpitations
of the heart, and;so on.
