How THE Spy WAS DETEcTED--The !
Washington correspondent Of the Charles
ton News SAYS an ingenious mechanic in
Washington has invented kind Of tele-
graphic hollow bullet, consisting Of two
parts screwed together. Ia this bullet q
despatch Of several lines written on thin
paper may be compressed and then fired
from musket to considerable distance.
In time Of war this contriyance might be
made very useful in conveying intelligence
into besieged fortress or city. The screw
bullet, however, he adds, is no new thing,
as the following account will proye:--
In the year l776, when Gov. George Gin
ton resided in Albany, there came stran
ger to his house. one cold winter morning,
soon after the family had breakfasted. He
was welcomed by the household and hospi,-
ably entertained. A breakfast was ordered,
and the governor, with his wife and daugh-
ter, who were sitting before the fire employ
ed in knitting, entered into conversation
with him about the affairs Of the country,
which naturally led TO the inquiry what
was his occupation. The emotion ard hes
itation with which the stranger replied
aroused the suspicion Of the keen-sighted
Clinton. He communicated his suspicion
to his wife and daughter, who closely
watched his every word and action. Uncon-
scious Of this, but finding he had fallen in
among enemies, the stranger was seen TO
take something from his pocket and swallow
it. Madam Clinton, with the ready tact Of
the women in those lroublous times, went
quickly into the kitchen, ordered hot coffee
10 be Immediately prepared, and added to il
strong dose Of tartar cmetic. The stran-
ger, delighted with the smoking beverage,
partook freely Of il, and Madame Clinton
soon bad the satisfaction OF seeing it pro-
duce the desired effect. True TO Scripture,
30 ut Of his own mouth he was condemned"
4 silver bulle, appeared, which, upon ex-
animation, was unscrewed, and found to
contain an important despatch to Burgoyne
The spy was tried, convicted and executed,
and The bullet is still preserved in the fam
iIy.
