THURSDAY EVENING. MARCH 5.

NEN D1sH-We were breasting the keen
north. east snow storm on our way to lunch-We
v were = passing fifty nine Liberty-when, through
the protecting glass, We espied the Jolly, genial,
glowing, inviting face Of our old friend, Dan
SANFORD. lie ushered us at once into the in
nerstemple, aud called on Mr.. Brown to broil
some: of that Mr.. B., as obedient and as
benefcent as the genius of the lamp, bestlrred
himself He produced a large roll OF what APP
peared tosbe strong linen, looking much ike
Bologna sausage, from which ne deity sew
cred several slices, which were placed on a
wire apparatus, such as IS used 1er Dro1i!ng
oysters. They were placed In the stove which
warmed the: room, and almost Immediately
del;cions., fragrant. appetizing odor prevailed
the sanctum. In less time than it takes to
write These lines we were served up new dish!
we nartook Of it with a reverential feeling
for the inyentor-for the man who had made
great modern addition to the menu of sports
men. The story OF the invention is this: Mr..
Tilton, of SO Harrison street, one Of the most
distinguished inventors of Gotham, took, one
day-no doubt in a moment OF enthusiastic IN
spiration-a green ham; he stripped OF the
skinIand took out the bone; he then threw 1t
into machine which reduced it to pulp; into
this pulp he introduced the conservative and
havoring ingredients; the mass was then, by
another machine with pressure OF about
three hundred pounds, forced into strong sau-
sage-shaped linen bags, and these bags were
hung in smoke long enough to receive a Ger
tain amount of pyroligeDous acid. There IS
the discovery. His name will doubtless be re-
corded in the new edition of the sGame Fish
Of America and his, boned hams will be
sought after by all those who Ego down to the
sea IN ships,"l or pitch their tents in the wild
erness.-M =. Turf and Field

Mooney ordered Cor pushed, as he testi-
fed him away, was taken under the i'm
preston that Mooney was going to Jump
on him. He testified that he thought
Mooney cooked the revolver. while Mooney
said he did not. The other witnesses
could not state whether the pistol was
cooked or not. A number of witnesses
were examined in behalf of the State, and
their testimony correspondent very nearly
with that above given respecting the as
sault. They all agreed that Mr.. Mooney
and his daughter were interrupted in their
attempt to go home, by Tucker, and that
said Tucker neglecting to leave when re-
quested to by Mooney, was driven away
by Mooney with pistol in hand.
BY some things minated by certain
witnesses, and from current reports before
the trial, the difficulty appeared to origi-
nate something in this way: The girl in
question is an only daughter by former
wife. She was just the age to be easily
impressed and influenced by others. Her
father, feeling it was important she be put
under certain restraint and good influ-
ences, made arrangements to send her TO
Young ladies' boarding school at Sher-
brooke. Mr.. Mooney is Catholic, and it
was reported he was going to force his
daughter into \ nunery in Canada. Some
of the fathers hasty words and unreason-
able requil ements made it more easy Gf
anything was necessary to influence the
daughter against going to Canada, and a
willing if not anxious party in the mid
night abduction of last August. 1t was
undoubtedly the impression of the party
who helped her off in August that she was
coming back last Saturday against her
will; but just what they proposed to do
after ascertaining the fact, did not appear.
The father anticipated rescue, and armed
himself for any contingency. Whatever
was the design of the ''conspirators, as
Mr.. Mooney calls them. the levelled re-
vOlver changed the whole course of things,
and the man who held il was arrested for
assault with intent to kill and MURDER
The State Withdrew the part of the charge
which accused of intent to kill. and the
justice fined the respondent five dollars
and costs: from which his counsel APP
pealed. The case was managed with con-
siderable skill and ability by States Attor-
ney ii. c. Belden, assisted by L. May.
Esq. of this place. Mr.. Mooney was de-
tended by Hon. L. Bartlett of Lyndon, and
j. ID. Stoddard. Esq. The court house
was crowded with ppnpl,I durinp the trial
which lasted until late in the evening.
