I pasved forth upon my errand to hear, the office of Messrs. Graves and Hendrick, that Mr. John E. Stewert had died in the city of Paris, leaving all bis property, real and personal, to his son by Marianne Gray- don, bearing the same name as himself, thea residing in New York, These gentlemen attorneys had ably performed their duty ia tracing the wretched woman throagh all her haunts, until they had discovered her, only the day before, at the establishment of Bully Dick. Through her they hoped to get trace of the son, not for a moment believing that,
