A correspondent of tbe New York Herald baa visited Ply month, Mass., and had an interview with tbe mother and schoolmates of Beisy King, alias Kate Staddard, now under arrest, charged wkb tfce murder of Charles Goodrich, in Brook lyn, N. I. I he correspondent sayi ; Although the ;stories of the singular tragedy had been read and commented npon here, no on could connect the -name of Kate Stoddard; with the yonthful and handsome Betsy iKing, who, until, a few years ago, wan not only the belle, but the model of propriety ot the whole town. f he papers-received In Plymouth on Mon day eon 1 11 i ued the- first news that Kate Stoddard ai.d Betsy King were one and ine same person. 1 1 1 be news was con veyed to tbe family by 4 neighbor, when; Mrs King was agoniz ed with grief. Kate was born in Plv mouth, and so were ber father and mother before ber. and jshe may, therefore, be considered as a praty direct dependent of-the little band , woo came over on tbe May .r lower two ,'or three centuries sjro. She is the youngest of a family of two daughters, ber eider lister being married to a Mr Bartlett. a worthy citizen of Hyde Pari, Massachusetts. It was her sbter aud not Betsy wHo taught school here in Plymouth county, although Betsy is Said to possess a far superior education. She is a graduate of tne high school, and dur ing her tuition she was particularly cele brated as a writeri While she was clover she was always regarded as sly and art ful. The circumstances of her first goincr away are hi keeping with her lingular and charactertic conduct ever since. One day she suddenly took it iuto her head to go to Boston, and ber parents fitted her eat and give her 1 00 in money . It is said by some of ber lady associates that there was a young Boston "runner," wbo bad become acquainted with her during one of his peregrinations herein Plymouth, and that it was to; share herfortnnes with bis that she left; her bouse. She hsd cultivated a romantic disposition by a lib eral persual of story papers and novels, and it is more than likely that cheap liter ature is the prime cause of all her woes and misfortunes. An interval of several months then elapsed, when her father was informed that she was sick -in a Hotel in Boston, and when he wept to her assistance he 4l?uUbTrTten rVcW skfnrT'W months she begajn to improve, and at about the time she was to beturtied out as 1 cured" s'ie look It into her head to leave without going through the usal formalities of .1 discbarge. Securing a eooplo of dressos and other clothing belonging to one of tbe matrons, she stepped into a buggy that was standing near the institii tioo and drove off to a relation's in North stated seasons and under regulations. Tbe fact that over two hundred thousand ani mals were sscriUced in ; less than twelve months, for so small a sum of money as their skim produced, created no little excitement and indignation in the cities of tbe plains, and in the bide markets of this eountry and in Europe it necessarily led to the cheapening of the article : and at present the hide that the hunter conld bave obtained 5 for a year ago' be would be glad to sell at 81.50. The markets everywhere are glutted, and it will be some months, at least until the fall, before the stocks on band are worked off. Several European governments, taking advantage of tbe low price of theses kin-, are manufacturing them into knapsacks for soldiers. Tbey are largely used in tbe French and Belgian armies, snd army contractors everywhere are large buyers for the purpose of making tbem up iuto all kinds of regimental material, such as strap, cords, harness, Sec. They are used in this country principally for mak ing a cheap iort of boot god horse collar ; but their introduction u connection with machinery and general woikshops is only a matter of time. Tbe tanned skin is said to turn out inferior leather in consequence of its porous character, : but dealers who profess to know, say that tbe fault is not with the bide, but wi'h the hunters and tanners. The hunters sometime kill the 1 buffalo at a season when his hide is al most worthless for manamcturing purposes and makes no attempt at preparing or even preserving it. ALL THAT IS DONE A8 A GENERAL RULE is to wash and dry tho blood wet akin, and in that Hate it is brought to the near est railroad station and shipped off by the agent to Chicago and elsewhere. The tanners as a rule bave never experimented on buffalo bides, and they follow the same treatment as for tbe farm bull and cow. 1 here is no doubt wbatever that buffalo skins can be used for almost all purposes to which dressed leather is sp pled, and that improvements can and will be made in their preparation that must lead to their becoming a valuable article of commerce. Most of the skins shipped lo Chicago are consigned to Wolff & Epstein, Kiusie street., snd by tbem forwarded to their customers East and in Europe. They came chiefly from Sargebnt, a station on the Kansas Pacific railroad. The balance of the hides are principally handled at Leavenworth, Kansas, aid are sent thence by local dealers to the different markets. The ordinary weight of a dried cowskin is from eighteen to twenty pounds, and of a dried bull skin forty to fifty pounds Of course the price varies, but it averages of shipment and transport, commission, and all expenses of handing have been taken out, tjie hunter may calculate on an average of abont occ doner per skm From the shelves of the modem library ideas have been gathered respecting tbe killiuz of buffalo that ate totally at vai- iance with the facts.
