Our.wIrTING TAE POLICE.

COME years ago the contraband trade
~ in Swiss watches was carried to
such an excess, that the Paris chief of
Police considered himself called upon to
make great exertion to seek to punish
the offenders. With this view he repair
ed incog. to Geneva. lie then applied
to celebrated dealer in watches to sell
him one hundred of the finest quality.
When the price was agreed upon, the
chief disclosed the condition that they
must be delivered in Paris, to which the
watch-dealer readily assented, upon an
additional sum being added, for the risk
of transport. The chief gave feigned
name and address, and it was settled
that within month the watches should
be within the French capital. Upon
his return the chief gave notice to the
French officers on the frontiers of these
facts, and after exciting their vigilance
by everything calculated to act upon
their fear, their pride or patriotism, he
watched, not without anxiety, the event
of his mission.
Within the time limited, stranger
called at the street and number which
the chief had given, inquired for him
by his feigned name, and upon seeing
him, signified his readines to deliver
the one hundred watches agreeably to
contract. This agent was taken into
custody, was examined, threatened, and
re-examined, but to no purpose he
protested that he was only a common
messenger in Paris, hired to deliver the
articles in question for astipulated price.
The chief, mortified and enraged, went
back Immediately still incog. to Geneva.
He sought out the watch maker, and be-
sought him to disclose the means he had
used to pass the watches over the lines :;
but he met with only smile and an
evasion. Finding that persuasion had
so little effect, he next resorted to threats,
but with no better success. Finally he
determined to use that master Key which
so often unlocks the bosom where
secrets not otherwise discoverable lie
hidden. He agreed to give the watch
dealer ten thousand francs, provided he
would make full disclosure, and, more
over, he guaranteed to indemnify him
from all the disagreeable consequences
which otherwise might have occurred.
This bargain being agreed upon, and
consumated by the payment of the
money, the watch-dealer began:--
Sir" said he, "when you came to
my shop, disguised like dealer in
watches, l knew you as well as you
knew me. Indeed, before you called
upon me, had information that you
were in Geneva, and was therefore on
my guard. When, therefore, you mad e
me stipulate that the one hundred
watches should be delivered in Paris, 1
had no doubt but that you meditated me
ill, and Igoverned myself accordingly.
L perceived at once that the watches
could not be passed the frontier in the
ordinary way; / therefore brbed your
own servant, and passed them over the
frontier as part of your own baggage,
which, on account of your public situa-
ton, l foresaw would escape examina.
| tion."
The chief returned to "the great city,
wiser than he left it, for he learned that
Geneva watch-dealers could use spies
and bribes as well as French detectives

The Hon. s. j. Tiiden, 1t seems, has the Rich.
elieu capacity OF dropping the weakness of age,
and OF flooring his enemy paralysis and his DO
Ht1cai enemies by bursts OF astonishing vigor
whenever the emergency requires. Before the
public has forgotten that he Is "tottering on
the brink OF the grave" 1t is told OF a sx-miie
walk which he recently took With Ex-Governor
Curtin, OF Pennsylvania, after which, says the
latter, he was "fresh and keen, and ready for
another dash" The incautious use of the word
" dash," In this connection, betrays that the
two ex-governors were indulging In a foot race.
and the dark suspicion arises that Mr.. Tilden
desiring for obvious reasons to prove beyond
doubt his strength and endurance has gone
into private training with view to making the
race for the international long distance walk
Ing belt. In case he were victorious In such a
contest the national pride In man who can
not only carry New York, but can beat Roweli
would doubtless make his election sure In 1881,
beyond the reach Of an electoral com mission
The eraftneSS OF this scheme and the skill with
which 1t has been concealed are SO character
fstic OF Mr.. Tilden that uIanswerable proof is
furnished OF the correctness OF our suspicion
We are not prepared to say, however, that this
premature disclosure OF his plans and exposure
Of his motives may not cause Mr.. Tilden to
abandon the bold move that one can hardly
doubt he has intended.

The only thing certain in the recent Chicago
election is that the republicans didn't win and
win not display any ROSTERS. The democrats
claim the victory, (they certainly have the
ofhces,) and see in these indexes the baby fig
ures Of things to come at large. The green
packers and socialists, who deserted the repub-
lican ranks In large numbers and caused the
defeat of the latter, hold that they themselves
are entitled to all the credit. The hard-money,

AAC tdSt thlt surveys uQuer
the direction OF NJ. de Lesseps. of Suez canal
fame, are actually in progress to test the
feasibility Of turning large area of the Sahara
Into an inland sea by admitting the waters OF
the Mediterranean through a canal cut from
CabeS on the coast or runis, and the favorable
reports made by the expedition give new in
tere5t TO the project Of submergfng the great
desert. The advantages to be derived from the
success OF any such scheme whether the water
comes from the Atlantic or the Mediterranean
are unQue5ti0nably great. The climate Of Cen
tral Africa would be improved, and facilities
for trade and the civilization of the natives of
the interior Of the dark continent would be
vastly increased. The Sahara is a thorough
fare, and very bad thoroughfare, too,
and not country Of production. 1t Is consid-
cred certain from the presence of sea shells far
inland, and from the distinctions between the
Iauna OF north and south Africa, that part at
least OF this vast tract Was once covered by an
inland sea separating the continent into two
divisions. But whether the great bars of sand
that formed at the entrances of the waters of
THIS sea, and CHECKED them, causing the sea TO
become series of lakes aud then to disappear
before the neat OF the sua, can be removed by
man, and whether the Sahara Is, after the
changes OF centuries still at lower level than
the ocean over sufficient area and to a sufi-
Gent degree to justify the attempt, II found
practicable, are yet to be determined On the
second point there has been almost as much
doubt as In respect to the practicability of cut
ting the necessary canal In case sufficient de
preston in the basin Of the Sahara were found
to exist. 1t has been asserted that the great
depression FL Juf, which Is hoped to be reached
from the Atlantic In what is pronounced the
most plausible OF the submerging schemes, is
depression only in respect to the surrounding
table-landS and Is not lower than the level OF
the sea. On the other hand 1t is claimed with
equal confidence that the bed of the desert is
here as much as two hundred feet below the
Sea-level. But interest Is now centered on the
other plan OF attack by way OF the Mediterra-
mean and Tunis, and IL it be found that the
scheme is practicable and that its results will
repay for the trouble and expense involved, de
Lesseps Is the man to carry the great work to
successful completion. After he has drowned
the great desert, he should be induced to cut
the proposed canal at Behring's Straits to per-
init the Asiatic Gulf stream to melt a passage
TO the North Pole and to improve the climate
Of America.

The report on the Fitz John Porter case, ex-
GENERATING him, In yesterdays STAR, was the
general subject OF comment last night. A vim
dicat1on OF Gen. Porter, made after months of
careful enquiry by officers OF the character of
Schoneld, Terry and Getty, necessarily carries
great weight, but there are some of hts fellow
soldiers In that disastrous second Bull Run
ngnt who yet express themselves as uncon-
Snceo tnat ne did his whole duty on that occa-
sion- Inc finding of the court, based on a vast
mass OF testimony, additional to that presented
at the court-martial that condemned him, must,
however, be accepted as the truth of history, in
place of any Impressions derived from the fact
that Porter's failure tn march In obedience to
ropes orders happened to occur precisely at
the time when he was credited with entertain
Ing anything but a respectful feeling for the
Dombastic new commander who had announced
his headquarters to be In the saddle.
