The true historian takes his readers BY
the hand, and leads them through chap
ter after chapter, telling the reason phy
he IS historian, and giving a short but
beautiful synopsis of the interesting sta
tons along the road. Therefore it is not
my province to tell aDhy introduced
Standt, since it must be seen that had he
not advised me to write, this beautiful
history would not have been written.
The question, too, of the merits of your
historian, is finally settled, much to the;
embarrassment of his tender nerves, for
nothing makes the modest writer so ner-
yous as praise. Nothing now remains
Tor me to do, but to proceed to gather
up scraps of incidents, dates of settle
ments, wars, chases, and purchases in gen.
eral, to the glori6cation of all men, my.
SELF and the truth. ......-
In 1900, the Dutch West India Com
pany laid the keel of the Half Moon"
a stout, fierce looking little vessel, des..
tined to visit the uncultiYated shores of
America, in order to discover a passage
through the continent. by means whereof,
to reach China by shorter cut than that
around Good Hope. ....
This vessel was finished and in sailing
order in 1909, when, commanded by the
renowned Henry Hudson, and having u
jolly crew of good natured, well fed
Dutch sailors, she set sail amid the uproar-
Gus, cheerings of the broad faced Fader.
landers, on a fire Saturday morning,
March the 25th.
Henry Hudson was an Englishman,
but so admirably did he manage his Dutch
crew, that he arrived off Sandy Hook at
ter a surprising short passage of six
months and nine days
He then steered his saucy Dutch bark
along the shore of New Jersey, on the Sd
of September, 1909, and from the yard
arms, and leaning over the bulwarks, the
nquisitiye tars strained their eyes, in
order the more clearly to examine every
little creek, nook and corner on the shore.
| Then they asked " Capteen Houdson,"
every ten minutes, to allow them to go
on shore to explore, catch monkeys, pick
figs and the like all of which in their
imaginationS grew spontaneous in this
fairy land.
Thus they continued to press their
claims upon the indulgence of the com.
mander, in much the same spirit that of
ice seekers proclaim their tlct, ability,
and willingness to serve their country
until, at length, the good natured Cap
teen" sent them on shore in the long boat,
in order to rid the ship of their querru-
lous Dutch gable but they, like brim-
full, elated Dutchmen, gabbled worse than
ever and Hudson being one of the fat
test of sea captains, and experiencing
Sympathetic chuekle expanded his broad,
brown cheeks, and burst out into a roar
of laughter such as had never before been
heard on these pleasant echoing shores.
Now this was the first time since the
creation of the world, that vessel had
sailed inside of that point known as
Sandy Hook and it was as she plowed
along the coast, and came upon that part
of the shore now belonging to Monmouth
County, that the crew of the Half
Moon," becoming interested, made the
first landing that was ever made in New
Jersey.

to witness feat of strength, performed
by one of Mrs. Watson's camels, of which
there were near dozen on the wharf, of
all sizes and ages. Upon the word of
command being given, the camel laid
down ready to receive his load, which
consisted of five bales Of hay, weighing
