The OCEANS NoYAGE.--The New
York Ereaing Post, in discussing the
question Of shortening the tune of the
passage to and from Europe points out
the reasons why the scheme of ma
king ST. Johns the eastern and northern
terminus Of the railway system was
abandoned The harbor of st. ,telAas,
Newfoundland, is three hundred miles
further eastward than any other avail.-
bic point on the continent, and the har-
Dor itself is good one, but to reach
the Islan1 of Newfoundland, involves
the crossing Of the Gulf of st. Lawrence,
of $50 miles, That obstacle therefore,
is fatal to the Newfoundland scheme,
though the plan of connecting New-
fouudland from Cape Ray with Cape
Breton Island would involve pas
sage by water of only eighty miles,
Failing these, however, there is an other
plan of making WhiteBa1en, or Louis
burg, in Nova Scotia, 200 miles north of
Halifax, the starting point for European
steamers. Both these places have good
harbors. The system OF railroads would
connect all parts of the United States
and Canada with these places, and pas
sengers could proceed BY Hsa to- Louis
burg or Whitehaven, and thereby avoid
several days on the ocean. hut the
general scheme does not stop With
shortening the route on this side. 1t
includes system Of railways through
Ireland, terminating at Valentia, on the
soabthwest coast. This would reduce
the time Of passage from New York
TO London, which now averages eleven
days, to eight days--the slns. bein g
from New York to Louisburg by rail
81 hours; from Louisburg to Valen-
tia, l4s hours; and from Valentia
TO London, sixteen hours. The time on
the oeeaa Will be six days or little more
than half tho present siae, The mil~
way system has been already extended
TO Halifax, and it will not be long be-
fore the general scheme. wSgA he eosal>

and such freights as are generally NOV

time, especially on the ocean, viii make
the travel between the TWO continents.

DIscLosED.--During a thunder storm
few days since large oak tree in the
Miami valley was struck by lightning
and rent from top to bottom. In fall
ling apart the fragments disclosed a
skeleton yellow with age, which instant
ly fell to pieces and scatteged over sew
eral feet of ground. With the remains
was found few buttons of ancient pat
tern and leather pocket book well
preserved. The pocket-book contained
papers which discovered the secret OF
the entombed skeleton. The remains
were those of Rodger Vapderburg, a
captain in the revolutionary army and
aid to General Washington. After par
ticipating in the priyations of Valley
Forge and the retreat across the Jerseys
he marched with ST. Clair against the
Northwestern Indians. On November
8, 1901, he was wounded AND captured,
but managed to escape, and, being close
ly pursued, he took refuge in this oak
tree. The heilow tree gave him a hi
ding place, and to make his retreat still
more secure from observations he allowed
himself to drop into it. He had mista-
ken the depth and when too late discov-
cred that he was walled in without the
possibili y of escape He spout the re-
naming hours of his life in writing an
account of his Imprisonment and also of
sufferings as he found himself starving
to death, 1t is supposed that he must
have lived about eleven days. Now,
after nearly a century has elapsed, his
secret is disclosed by an accident, and
the story Of his death Is given to the
world. ''l7 i ''

Against tho Property Clerk for Deten-

Something over two years ago some adroit bur-
glars made raid on the Golfers OF the Duchess
County Mutual Insurance Company whose office Is
in Poughkeepse, and among other property stolen
were $4,000 in Poughkeepsie city bonds. 1t was
supposed that at least three persons were engaged
in the burglary, but the police only succeeded
In getting ON the track OF one, who
was arrested in this city and taken

Co., brokers, produced the stolen bonds. They
claimed that they came into their possession in
the ordinary course OF their business, and that

surance Company people insisted on the bonds
being restored TO them, claiming them as their
property. Messrs Hatchfed Co. were as per-
out of the quandarythe Judge delivered them over
to the Police Property Clerk, Mr.. J. N. Bouck.
This disposition or the bonds left no other
recourse but bringing suit by the
insurance company against the brokers and the
Property Clerk. The suit came to trial several
days since before Judge Van Brunt, holding SUI
preme Court, Circuit. The testimony showed that
Messrs. Hatch1eld Co. bought the bonds OF
man named Kinderlip, the party arrested and
brought before Judge Dodge, but who, by the way,
though indicted tor the burglary, has never been
brought to trial. The jury rendered verdict
against the brokerage firm for $6050, the full value
OF the bonds with interest. An additional verdict
was directed by the Judge against the Property
Clerk, directing him to return the bonds to the in
surance company, or, in default OF this $6,05O and
also six cents damages for detention.
