New York Dotectivem Pusu1ed~Hayden, the Accused Murderer, ol; the Lecture Plat. foron-Stephen Tyng Supports Him-The Professional Humorist of the "Thnes." (Fiomt the News and Courier.) NEW YOIK, March 15.-The con. stant talk in New York at present about cremation, funerals, iron coffins, &c., reilinds me of the strange perse cution to which the Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix, the rector of Trinity Church, at. ,y a salary of $20,000 a year, has been subjected for the last Aew months by some rascal, whose oceitpation scens T to colsist, apparently, in sending 0 tradespeoplo, anild principally inder )f takers, to Dr. Dix's house. The pa il pers have not told half of the annoy h ance.s to which he itias been subjected. Undertakers have been there with cofins and ice reatdv to lay out a dead t person who latd no existence. Otno day at least a dozen of these sad-faced 1. gentlemen received letters signed with - Dr. Dix's name, requesting them to call that evellig with a coflin ald ice at. his house at such an hour, and of 1, course tie whole dozen were on hand - prompty. The next day it was the -s tl I'll of tile Second-hand clothes deal is ers, who to the liumber 4)f twenty or It so received postal cards asking thei to cole and purchase the cast-off 0 clothing of Mrs. Dix. Sone (lays aflerw r 'a several promineit clergy n11101 received invitations to dint at Dr. r Dix's house with i distinguished strang4er, anld of course wenit to find( n1 theimaelvem enitirely unexpected. t.9 Tradespeople and ainufacturers all a over th couitry, from Ainie to Flori it dt, received orelurs for goods and sam pIes from 1Dr. Dix's elergetic friend. and of course sent, what was requested, to tile great. ainnoyanice and expense of thei reverend gentlemian. The next in stance of tile persecutor's ingeullity . was More su1ccsst'il thfai ainy ill ai 0 nying him. Dealers itn cu'riosities, living (nd dead, and keepers oftnmuse tln, received postal cards iniviting ifthem to binhg their- most extraordina Iy%- wonders to Dr. Dix's house, as that 11 gentleman wanited to Orgalnize a travel In1gs how for Sualiiy schoole xhibitiolns. The consequcneo was that for a week )Dr. Dix's house was besieged by the most astounding succession o iott -t stosities, who till wanted to see Dr. Dix and were willing to ahow them 0 selves to Sunday schools for a consid A cration, the ngliest and most hprrible onles deliandfing, of course, the highest Prices. Olle i'lan had i head like a pig's, anild ecould squeak ; another had no limbs; theii came huitclbacks; meii with noAes a foot lon;g Siamese t ins S giants who could seajrcely get in tile doors; dwart's who had to climb up j the steps on1 all-fours ; foreigners with the t*Ices of dogs, and who could bark; Women with bieards; Ktliffis, Esqui m.ux,. human skeletons, and Indian Fakirs with nails a yard long, who had taken a vow never to wash them selves-and had kept it. Policemen had to be engaged to attend the door bell, bectiuse the rings were incessant. and tile ser-vait, girls were scared out their wits by tile appearance and be havior of these queer freaks of iat.utre, who were all indignant at not being - welcomed with admiration antd who all wanted at least car fares for their tvoi ble inl comning. One man arrived withu ai wagon lotad of mmnmlflies and1( one twith a per'formning bear. A t last after tthree imon.ths of' similar annloyance -camte a letter offetinag to stop) tile nu11 e sac if $1,000 was ptaid. Detectives antswered the offe'r to nto avail. It is hiopedI now that thme wide~1 pub)licity ) given to tile matter will prevent per sons8 fr'om beinlg imlposed upionI. On the other hand even genluinie comm nuni e caltions1 frtoim Dr. Dix will nlaturlally be a looked at closely her'eafter before anyi e laith is put in them:. ANOTHIER VICTIM. e The same p)ersoni whlo has been1 per ,t secutinlg Drt. Dix hIas also somtegrudge agauinst ai certainl Mr'. Buckley' who hIas a saloQul ini New York. On 'Saturday, - February 21st, Buckley was surpriisedl -to> see a let ter ini a morning nIewspap,er' .signeId with his nlame, offetring to give t~ the prto)ceed of his businless f'or on1 0 day11 to the Irish relief' fund. Blefor'e 'he'had time to call at the newvs aper bt office to demanld ant explanlation 110 re-1 c ceived a postal card, p)urp)orting to1 'f come , fr'oim the of11ce or that p)aper', thankmg him for his noble zeal in be-1 half1 of Irish charity. lie went to the - office, and1( discovered there that tihe postal card was bogus, while Is card had: lbeen printed in good faithi. On the 24th came indignant letters of sonie r1 pers'onIs of whloml Buckley had never II heard, inqujlirintg what ho meant by k seningilo themt bills for wino and cigars. Poor liuckloy went arounid to those per'sons and explained theo hoax; hie ~' had1( never sent them any bills anld he a htad never heard of them. Then mat, k ters grew more seriouls. Oneo day hi Mayor Gr'iahami, of Pater'son,N. .J., and the chtief' of pollce of that city, enlter'ed 1the saloon anid, taiking Mr. Buckley g ito his~ private ofiloie, enldeavored to e extort n'om him a confession that lie -- was the mullrderer of the wonmn, Miss e Hlink, who was recently killed in 11Cr tbed int Patersotn. After' he had satis Lied these genttlemlen of his Innocence II of t hat critme, they showed him the Il postial card accusihng himi of' the mur n decr. At 5I o'clock of the1 sameo anter Snoon a gentleman entered the saloon and iniquired for Mr. Buckley. He approached the p)ostal card v'icthni, and, lowvering his voice almost to a wihiis d per', said: "I am S. 846." Mr. Buick h ey at this time was disgusted wvith the r lnystery which surrouded 1im, and exclaimed someiwhiat Irtritablyv, "The ---olu are I WVell, wvhat 'do you a wvant't" "IPve brought thte money 'for ni the coat, you kniow, 'said the str'anger, " mlakinig a f'antic attempt to smile itat [t urally.
