them in the confused state mentioned in
Washington dispatches. Efforts are now
being made to find his confederates, for
it is believed he had assistance outside
of Tammany. 1t is also believed it will
be found that he lost the greater part OF
this money in speculation. The names
of his brokers have not been ascertained,
but it is hoped that they will refund o
portion of the funds rather than undergo
a criminal prosecution. Twelve experts,
headed by Leopold, are engaged in inves'
tigation. The counting Of money will
be finished to-day. The examination of
the accounts may last two months.
General Hillhouse, of the Sub-Treas-
ury, was interviewed yesterday regard
ing Johnson's defalcation. Hillhouse
has no doubt of Johnson's guilt. He
was always regarded as reliable man,
and never was dissipated. There is a
discrepancy between his accounts and
those of the Internal Revenue Depart
ment at Washington. Hillhouse thinks
it is just possible that the latter may
be wrong and johnson right, but this is
not probable. Several detectives are
after him. His deficiency cannot yet be
precisely estimated, but it may reach
$3.50. 900.

About twenty miles from Berlin is
situated the village Of Sperenberg, noted
for the deepest well that has ever been
sunk. Owing to the presence Of gypsum
in the locality, which is at a moderate
distance from the capital, it occurred to
the government authorities in charge Of
the mine to obtain supply Of rock salt
With this end in view the sinking OF a
shaft or well sixteen feet in diameter
was commenced some five years ago,
and at a depth Of two hundred and
eighty feet the salt was reached. The
boring was continued to further depth
of nine hundred feet, the diameter Of
this bore being reduced to aboutthirteen
inches. The operations we're subse-
auently prosecuted by the aid Of steam
until depth Of folT thousand one hun
bred and ninety1oHr feet was attained.
At this point the boring was discon-
tinued, the borer or bit being still 10 the
salt deposit, while thus exhibiting the
enormous thickness of three thousand
nine hundred and seven feet. The Dor
ing would haze been continued in order
to discover what description Of deposit
lay under the salt, but for MECHANICAL
difficulties connected with the further
prosecution Of the operations. During
the progress Of this interesting work re-
peated and careful observations were
made Of the temperature at various
depths. The rssplis confirm very close

rived at under similar circumstances
