BILE story of man at Tenants harbor,
who, being out in his boat fell over
board, and not being able to swim, con-
ceived the idea of striking bottom and
walking ashore. Accordingly shutting
his mouth and eyes firmly together, be
struck out for the shore, until thinking
be must be near land, be opened his
eyes and found himself in the middle of
a corn6eld. This beats Weston all

Astounding Disclosures by a Prisone

Astonishing Disclosures by q Prisoner.
The New York Sun has the following dis
patch:
Port JERvrs, Pa, August II. nIa the spring
nf 1868 several serious accidents occurred on
the line Of the Delaware division OF the Erie
Railway. 10 one Of whch=the Carr's hock dis-
aster, on the morning OF the 18th OF april IN
that year-more than score OF passengers
lost their lives, and fifty or sixty others we're
wounded. Iu each OF theae cases the track ha d
been maliclously displaced, but oil the efforts
OF the company TO ferret out the perpetrators
proved futile and finally standing reward OF
$1,000 was cff,red for any evidence which Woul1
lead to their conviction.
A short time before the occurrence OF these
disasters, the company di scharged from their
employ and caused the arrest OF an English.
man, John Bowen. sixty-four years OF age,
for forging o payroll. Bowen has been,in
this country for twenty-five years, and has
resided in the neighborhood Of Sparrowbush
and Rosl's Switch for several years past.
After the Carr's Rock disaster, this Bowen
went to Mr.. Douglas, then division superlnten-
dent, and accused one James Knight OF tam
pering with the rails few hours before the
disaster. The company at once put the mat
ter into ihe hands OF the detectives, but they
failed to gather sufficient evidence to warrant
them in bringing knight to trial.
On the 18th OF April last rail was found
torn up near Stairway Brook, and renewed ef-
forts were made to trace out the guilty person.
Alter a patient investigation OF all the facts
that they could gather, the company came to
the conclusion that Bowen himself was the
criminal, and they accordingly had him arrost-
ed and locked up in Milford (Penn,) jail,
where he confessed that he had tampered With
the rails on the 2Sth Of May
On Monday Bowen made second and tull
confession, acknowledging himself the perpc-
traitor OF each and every one OF the crimes
which led to such loss Of life and limb He
made il voluntarily, having been warned that
he need MT expect to gain any lenlency there
by at the hands OF the company.
