A BoOKKEEPER's DISGRACE.

DEFALCATIoN IN THE wEsTcHEsrEG COUNTY
NATIONAL BANK.
The village of Peekskill has been thrown into
state of excitement by the discovery that the book
keeper Of the Westchester County National Bank.
located In that place. is defaulter to the extent
of $5.40o. The institution is of the oldest
and has been considered of the soundest
in the county, with capital of $9O0.001
and surplus Of over $4,000. The defaulter
in the is James Barton. who has long occupied
his position of trust in the bank He is son-in-law
of the Rev. c. J. Page pastor of the Baptist Church
in he village. The accused is about twenty-seven
years DID, and he has made confession of his guilt.
After serving number of years a clerk in the
bank he was promoted TO the more responsible po-
sition of bookkeeper which he has filled for nearly
all He had salary of 81 200 per year and he did
not appear to be living beyond his income. He
drank moderately and was fond of playing billiards
and other games, and thus, it is supposed, that he
probably expended more money than his friends
were aware Of About a month ago his brother-in-
Office, died. and this appeared to make n deep i'm
preston upon his mind. He began to take an in
eres in the prayer meetings then in progress in the
Baptist Church under the charge of his father
naw, and at of the services he and desired
the prayers OF the meeting. which circumstance
which, however has been OF short Duration Aslight
discrepancy was discovered in the books in his
charge by the cashier of the bank Friday last and
when asked for explanation in regard to the mat
ter he went home the plea of illness. and the
following day he visited the bank and in terms Of
humiliation and deep contrition he made a
full confession of his guilt He is
home suffering from severe nervous prostrxtion.
II is not believed that the bank officials Will institute
any criminal proceedings against Barton 1t seems
that his entries in the depositors' pass books OF
money paid in by them. also of the in the ledger
Of the bank, are correct, but he omitted to credit
them in the daybook. and it is considered mystery
how he managed to hide the evidence OF his defalca-
tons Thus far the bank officials have taken steps
TO punish him for the offence beyond dsmissing him
from position.

BENEFIT TO MIKE HENRY.

A complimentary benefit rendered last night
to Mike Henry. the popular sporting man. by his
Brooklyn friends. 1t took shape in the form
OF excellent variety entertainment. which
held at the Athenaum, of Clinton and
Atlantic streets. The house we'll filled by Mr..
Henrys admirers, and the applause which greeted
the performance of the volunteer artists
fully attesed the appreciation which at
tended their efforts. Professor Ais orchestra
opened the performance with overture.
which was followed by singing by the Plymouth
Quartet-Messrs. Van Houton and the Nickolls
brothers. Their singing tho subject of repeated
encores. An original tamborine act by Messrs Meade
and Lewis and "a serio comic song by Mr.. j. Jackson

sessed an individuality peculiarly his own His
worldly affairs were arranged for many years. and il
o not to be presumed that the Reaper found him
prepared in amy way for the stroke that cut him
down. The life of Mr. Dana full of experience
and memories that reach far back.
1t is a curious circumstance. however, that he
never saw England or made ocean voyage. Mag
ara and Canada on the one hand and Philadelphia
the other constituted the principal limits of his
wanderin3s. When Newport became fashionable he
turned to Nahant. His country home was at Man
chester. N. H. The father OF Mr. Dana owned nearly
the whole of Cambrdgeport near Boston,, and at his
death divided the property between his six children.
Two generations have been supported by it, His
wife died in 1872. sister kept house for him after
ward and after her death only surviving daughter
became the head of his home. William Cullen Bryant
stayed at Mr.. Danas house in Cambridge. when he
was invited to deliver the Phi Beta Kappa poem of
the year. young man, and it was while there
that he made important changes in "Thanatopsis" !"
The friendship between the two never inter-
rupted except by death.
Among others of literary friends the poet Per-
cival, George Ticknor. Dr. William l.. Claiming and
Washington Alston, the artist All of the painters
works were left to him and his children and they
now held by the Boston Art Museum. 1t has been
well said that, if with prophetic instinct of
Danas life, Bryant forty fifty years ago wrote of
