A bright looking , well dressed lit tle girl , named Olga Cool , aged but fourteen years , was brought before the Police Court yesterday , on a. sort of general charge of total de pravity. For about the last ten days , she has been living in a colored house of ill-fame , the lowest den in the cify , located back of the United States Hotel. Her presence there , and the apparent pleasure that she enjoyed iu the vile society of those colored courtezans , have been noticed from day to day by the respectable people living in that vicinity , and several com plaints have been made to the police concerning her , and two or three kind-hearted persons have made futile efforts to rescue her from this lowest life of infamy. A certain city official , a day or two ago , in duced his wife to consent to take the girl Into their house , and try to reform her. The girl had agreed to do so , and had packed up her things with the intention of going , when suddenly she changed her mind , and determined to remain where gji was. Henpp thp complaint. When poJfnouinnCollins arrested her ypstvtjr i * * * " * used the vilest and most profane language towards h'mi and upon beingbroughtbefore Judge Wilbur she rppeated it , ami was doubly saucy. Judge Wilbur sent the juvenile prisoner to jail to await further ac tion , an.d to give Jier an opportunity for reflection. In thp meantime , Some means will probably be de vised to prevent hen' from returning to the iniquitous den , which should be broken up at once. The girl had a most violent tem per , an unruly and foul tongue , and was certainly the most perfect spec imen of juyfinjje depravity ever brought tjefore an Q/njaJia yolice court , and it was the opinion of a level-headed bystander that all ef forts to reform her would be as dif ficult a test as breaking a \ icious mul frpfil kicking.

Marshal Daily , of this State had a narrqw escape from robbery or assassination yestprJay morning , over in Eastport , on the Iowa side ' of thp Missouri river. He took'a hasty trjp /Shenandoah / , on the ' railroad , in makp some collections , and neglected to carry hjs sack and revolver pvepts wh jch were proba bly watched by some desperado. On alighting from the train yester day morning early , Jn thp dark , he noticed some one get out after jiiin and dodge along the way leading to the hotel. The marshal quickened his pace and the man did the same. Thp marshal finally ran , and the man after hjm with a revolver , but the marshal soon got to the hotel , and afterwards came over on this 1 side , where tjie advpnturer also showed hillisplf Jong pnough to be "spotted.

OMAIIA , August 13 , 1874. EDITOU BEE : At a party at Millard last Satur day night , a party of young men from the city were especially notice able , on account of their disgraceful conduct. Their names were John Hogau , James Morton , Fred and John Lucas , and two fellows by the name of Tracey and Maloney. These young gents had extended them an invitation from a young lady in th ° country , she not knowing their characters. During the early part of the eve ning they behaved themselves quite well ; the latter part they became very obnoxious , and some parties left on their account. They woundjup their trip by vis iting the hotel at Millarc } , apjl c fll- ing for something to 'eat. Whilst the landlord was preparing it , onp of tJiein robbed tjje money drawpr to the amount of four or fiye dollars. They were not successful in carry * ing off the spoils , however , as Mr , Kelber , the proprietor , discovered his loss and went for them with his beer club and compelled them to disgorge , which they did , to the amount of $3.20.

JAC Douglas street. itol Additional Telegraph , Yoitic , August 13. A World reporter has learned that the result of the conference is to be following plan : The committee , as soon as possible , will close their labors and report. Beech er is not to be called upon to testify in any manner , but the committee will make a report in his favor to the examining committee of Plymouth Church. When the report is made Beecher will tender his resignation , and his resignation will not be ac cept. To-day probably the plans of the committee will be more fully divulged. The World's special from Stan ford , Conn. , says Moulton passed through there on a train for Xarra- gansett last evening. He was in terviewed on the train by a World reporter regarding the story as cir culated by the Chicago Tribune as coming from him , charging Beech er with all that Tilton had laid at his door. Moulton refused to con firm or deny the story , and said he had not read it. The Times says Beecher's exami nation commenced lalteveningand will be concluded at noon to-day. 3foiiltons ? statement and Beepher's ' testifnony will be pufli&heJ at' the same time. The cominittee met at Beecher's house at 8'o'clock this mqrnfng and hold the last session for reception evidence. The Qo'j- } } ' ' ' " m'ittep13 rpport w'jll bp ve'ry Jong" , and will not be in shapp for publipa- tion for spvpral weeks yet. The work of preparing thp report wijlbe entrusted to a suu-oommuteo. The committee believe the statement In the Chicago Tribune was made by Moulton , but CNpress surprise that he should have taken that way to bring them before the public. " The Tribune says ij , e uojiimjttea examined Q P wjtness rind asliefl Mr. iiecehor iv few preliminary questlonR. They meet this morn ing sll ll Needier will submit n long statement. Ho wili then be C-X = niiniik-'iJ , and the committee will close 'ita 'labors In the ovenjn . Becchor is not disconcerted' by 'the publication of declarations purport ing to come from Moulton in the Chicago Tribune. Beechor says Moiilfon WiU not be si1fibic < ) to pt ofrin the sncakjng way " ho tried before - fore the committee. JTe will be forced to show every letter and document in his possession. Mr. Beecher's statement will bo very explicit7 , and will fill twenty columns of the Tribune with his testimony. He denies absolutely that he ever gave expression to the jast two pntpnpt * , ( juotfd in his apology as follows : ' "Jfcf foYgivej ness I have , " "J humbly pray t God to put It Into the huart of her husband to forgive me. " Beecher says that these sentences were ad ded , after the apology signed by hill ) , irj > hp Hcrajd sayg tjiat tjjo Qom- mitteo's report is n foregone t < 6n- elusion ; It will acquit Beecher tri umphantly. The Herald thinks that the committee last night were engaged in the revision of the state ment , rendered necessary by the iittblicatiojj of tjip report of the Chicago cage Trjbunp correspondent's'inter view with Moulton. The Sun says there is some hope of a verdict from the committee next wcelt. MEMPHIS , August 13.
