The Lost Traveller.

Among the numerous victims, distinguish
ed travellers, whose lives have been sacri-
feed to the peris of African discovery, the
world has almost forgotten that of the unfor-
lunate Jacques Compagnon, who, under the
auspices Of the Duke de Choseul, left Sene-
gal in 1858, to explore the country to The
north and east of Senegambia, penetrated
as far as the wooded desert of Simboni.
where he was heard from in 17e0, and then
disappeared. never, it was supposed, to be
heard from again. After ninety years of
mystery and oblivion, however, the veil has
been removed, and the secret of his fate has
been disclosed by M. dc Gaysa, Hungari-
an explorer in Africa, from whom a letter
has been received by the Imperial Society of
Vienna, disclosing The discoveries which
seem to place the fact beyond question, be,
sides giving 1t very interesting aspect. M.
de Goysa writes from the country of the
Kommenis, semi-civiized tribe, who have
some religious notions possessing a certain
analogy with the Christian tradition, regu.
lar language, an alphabet, and mode of
writing" all, or most of which, they appear,
from their own account, TO have derived from
stranger, a European, who died among
them in 1878, and whose memory was re-
vered as that of a sage or good genius. That
this stranger was Jacques Compagnon, was
proved by number of circumstances, not
the least conclusive of which were several
personal relics, regarded by the people as
sacred, one being quadrant with his name
engraved upon it in full. Il would seem
from such accounts and traditions as M. de
Gaysa was able to gather, that Compagnon
was detained by the Kommenis, and, being
reconciled at last to his captivity, devoted
himself to instruciing them in the useful arts,
His tomb, consisting of "a little stone mon>
ument of conical form, covered with sn in.
scription in hieroglyphical characters" was
pointed out to the Hungarian visitor in one
of their principal villages

/. Subscribers who do not give express no.
tcc to the contrary, are considered as wishing
to continue their subscription.
2. II subscribers order the discontinuance of
their papers, the publisher may continue to send
them till all that is due be paid.
8. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take
their papers from the office to which they are
directed, they arc held responsible till they
have settled their bills and ordered their papers

4. If subscribers move to other places, with
out informing the publisher, and the paper is
sent TO the former direction, they are held re.

5. The courts have decided that refusing to

cious circumstance was communicated to the
public on the eighth, the deserted habta-

DEAR LANDLORD:
If you have any acquaintance with his
tory, you must know that the English were
once, during period of two hundred and
ten years, in possession Of Calais that they
were at length driven out of it by the Duke
of Guise, who treated them in the same man.
ner as our Edward ILL., did the French; that
| is, drove them out Of the town and seized all
their effects Not long since, we were So
| fortunate as to discover in chest Of old
parchments, deeds that proved that one Of
ancestors formerly possessed, at Calais, q
large house, on the site of which three houses
stand at present; yours is one of the three
When our ancestor was obliged TO flee, he
buried bis gold and silver at the foot of n
thick wall, which is still in existence. A.
mong his papers we found one which afford.
ed satisfactory information respecting the
situation of the building. We Immediately
repaired to Calais, and luckily found pub
lie house on the spot SO interesting to us we
took lodgings in it, examined every thing,
and concerted measures 10 take possession Of
our lawful inheritance without exciting no.
tice. In what manner we removed the OBJ
stacles is we'll known TO you. The great hole
and the empty iron chest, which will be
found under the wall in our chamber are
proof that we have been successful. We
make you present Of the chest. and advise
you to gil up the hole, and to give yourself
no further concern about us all inquiries
will be in vain, as the names we went by
were only assumed. Farewell.
The landlord Of the Golden Elephant
stood stock still, and with open mouth. Ills
kinsmah came--both looked at the hole and
then at the empty chest, and then agreed
that the strangers were NOT such fools as they
had first taken them Tor.

The Rouse's Point Ferry Bill.

y
10 our readers, the Bill that has passed the
New York Legislature as substitute for the
original Bridge Bill. As this substitute was
offered by Mr.. Whseler. the representative
for St. Lawrence, and the gentleman who
had the Interests Of the Northern Railroad
Company in charge, we are to presume this
vexed question ID now adjusted satisfactorily
to them. II, as We conclude. the opening
between the piers mentioned in the bill is
sufficient for the easy accommodation of the
navigation of the Lake, nobody can have
reason to complain, while the crossing OF the
Lake, by the trains Of the several Railroad
Companies, will be materially facilitated.
The following is the Bill
The People Of the State Of Nep York, repre-
senfed in Senate and assembly, do enact
as folioiVs:
SECTION l. The Northern Railroad Com
pany is hereby authorized TO extend its pier
north of the station house, at Rouses Point,
on Lake Champlain, to point two hundred
and fifty feet from the centre of the channel
of the outlet Of Lake Champlsin, being the
boundary line between the states OF Yer
mont and New York. In case the Vermont
and Canada Railroad Company shall, with
the consent Of the Legislature of Vermont,
extend its pier opposite to Rouse's Point,
so that il shall not come nearer The centre Of
the channel aforesaid, than one hundred and
twenty-five feet; /; then the said Northern
Railroad Company may continue their afore-
said pier, to point one hundred and twen-
|y-6ve feet from the aforesaid line, but in
case at any time the aforesaid pier of the
Vermont and Canada Railroad Company
| shall be continued so as not to leave the
space between the extreme ends Of the piers
Of the width of two hundred and fifty feet,
then The said Northern Railroad Company
shall Immediately remove so much of their
pier as shall be necessary to leave an oper
space of two hundred and fifty feet.
81. Said pier shall be an open pier, and
shall be constructed in such manner, as not
materially TO diminish the flow Of the water.
The sides of said piers shall be supplied with
spring piles as tenders and snubbing posts
convenient for the use of vessels. No charge
snail be made upon vessels for mooring be.
side said pier. II shall be the duty of the
Northern Railroad Company, during the
season of navigation, to keep said pier light
cd during the night, in such manner as shall
sufficiently designate the proper place for
vessels to pass through. Said Northern
Railroad Company shall also maintain, at the
termination of its road, on Lake Champlain,
suitable dock, or wharf, for the convenient
transfer Of persons and property from said
railroad to vessels navigating the lake and
river, and from such vessels to said railroad.
to be used under the direction of said com
pany and the said corporation shall charge
no more for transportation of property of
the same class over their railroad, where the
same is going to or from the city Of New
York, or other city ON The Hudson river,
than when going TO or from the city of Bos>
ton, or oIher Atlantic ports.
So. This act shall take effect Immediately
