IT was boldly charged in Gilmorc'S
Garden last Monday that O'Leary's
hackers had agreed to sell out in the
pedestrian match. The terms of the
alleged sell-out were succinctly and in
detail stated, and it was publicly pre-
dicted that on Wednesday O'Leary
would retire from the contest.
O'Leary's immediate friends denied
these charges but, sure enough, at 5
o'clock on that day OLeary did retire
from the contest, and did thereby lose
his friends great deal of money, 1t
matters not how honest OLeary may
have been in the matter, the public
will henccforth be very suspicious of
him.

The MfssiAn 70 ENGLAND.

WARRINGTON, July 29.-Apropos OF
the vacancy in the mission to England
is some gossip about the necessary ex-
penses Of the Minister to England above
his salary. The salary is Sl7, 500 and
the minimum additional expense is
placed here by those who have the best
means Of knowing at s24, 900 per an
mum. ....
This added sum makes provision only
for such style Of living and entertaining
as are inseparable from the position.
Some of the American ministers to Eng
land have expended about $40, 900 above
their salaries, but it is regarded here
as possible to do all that the position
calls for by an extra outlay Of $24, ,00c.
These figures were supplied two
years ago to friends ofa gentleman who
was named In connection with the
place, and who desired before deciding
he could accept, to know the
extra expense, so as to determine
he colld afford TO incur the
necessary outlay from his private

Deep Water Point on the Delaware, be.
tween Psnnsville and Pennsgrove, in

has quite history. In September,

for special purpose, an extraordinari-
ly large tree of man living at Tattle-
town, near Quinton, and after being
felled and loaded, the com bined strength
of IS horses could not move it. 1t had
to be sawed in two, was drawn in two
sections to Quinton's Bridge, where it
was slid into Alloway's Creek on til.
spot where the first glasshouse of Hires
Il Co. is now located. These two pieces
of timber were foated down the creek,
and as far up the river as Deep Water
Point, where, by some means, one Of
the pieces sunk. The exact length of
the timber is not known, but it Is
great many feet; while across the butt
it measures 7 feet 3 inches. 1t is she'll

place as above stated, in almost as good
