TuE SAVINGS BANK.-A NEW SAFEGUARD.
The contest between the inventors of i'm
proved safeguards for bank vaults.and the
burglars has been long and sharp one. As
the inventors have guarded one point after
another, the burglars have contriyed new
methods Of attack, to be met in turn By
new inventions. Finally, bank-locks and
'auit-loors reached point Of perfection
at which it became useless for burglars to
a:t,nlpt TO pick or break through them,
within the limits Of time in which such
attempts must be made. Yet some OF
these apparently impregnable vaults have
been robbed within two or three years
past by gangs of masked burglars.
who seized the cashiers in their beds,
led them to the vaults and forced them to
open the doors. Agains. this form of bank
robbery there has been no efficient safe
guard, TIL the invention of Sargent x
Grsenlesi : new 'Chronometer Bank-lock."
This, attached to the inside of the door OF
vault Or safe. drops bolt behind tine main
bolts OF the door, when locked, which can
not then be Withdrawn till it is released by
the uloek-work within. Set for given space
Of time, ten, twontyiJur, forty-eight, or
any less number of hours, the door cannot
within that time be opened by the cashier or
any body. When the hour for opening ar
riyes the cl5ck-work withdraws the obsta-
Gle, and the door may be opened as usual.
The relief from care which this continuance
must bring to the bank officers and cashiers,
thousands of whom, doubtless, have slept in
constant fear Of such attacks as we have de-
seribed, is incelculabe. The Trustees of the
Burlington Savings Bank have placed one
OF these locks on the door OF their vault Ii
is a beautiful piece Of mechanism, and We
can see no reason why 1t should not prove
absolutely effective Mr. Ward, the watch
iul and excellent Treasurer of the Bank,
viii hencelorth doubtless sleep d little more
quietly o'nights; and depositors. though
they may know. as we DO, that Mr. Ward
could not be easily surprised or cowed,
must be glad 10 realize that the safety OF
the bank from robbery Is not dependent on
any one mans resolution or means of self
defence
The deposits of the Bank are now about
Sl.7o0, goo. Its monthly increase is often
nearly a. large as the entire deposits OF some
of its earlier Years and in this and other
ways, il managers snow their desire to care
faithfully for the property entrusted to
them and to keep their Institution worthy
Of the confidence reposad in it.

Quite sensation was oecasioned in the
court room by the appearance and testi-
mOny Of Mrs. Palmer, the clairvoyaut me-
dunn. She is described as dark brunette
with very large piercing black eyes jet-back
hair hanging loosely, and a vague fxedness
Of expression, giving her face a strange
weirdness. Her hat had wide brim lined
underneath with purple six, and around
the high crown a broad, bright red scarf
was wound, the long ends dangling down
her back. In such head dress she looked
like handsome bandit. The rest Of her
costume was rich and tasteful. She testified
that she was born at Ticonderoga. and
brought up in EIizabethtown. Essex Co.. n.
\. She Is the wife Of Dr. Frederick Augustus
Palmer, having married him about year
ago after being divorced from Mr.. Herbert
Daniels, whose wife she had been during
the preceding SIX years. In her girlhood
she was trained as an artist, and has con-
siderable skill in landscape painting. Late
" she invented a stocking suspend er for wo-
mems use, had it patented, and has since
had a good income from the sale of the ar |
ticle. She stated that on removing from
Boston 70 New York in the spring of 1871, |
She resided for six or eight months in the |
families of WIN. b. Hatch and A. S. Hatch. |
who were friends Of hers She fell into in
timaey with Mrs. Woodruff and thence into
beng witness in the scandal trial. She pro-
esses to believe that she can while in
frances communicate with disembodied spir-
Is, or can see them, when she Is only
lightly under spirit control. She says She has
very day seen the court room more dense
populated with spirits than with NOR
ais. The air has been crowded with spirit
ARTISANS of Mr.. Beeeher and Mr.. Tilton, in
'isible to Others, but visible to her. She
cpresents this sort of attendance as embra-
ing many dead men and women of his
