A TERRIFIC GALE ON THE JER,
SEY COAST.

LONG BRANCH, N. j., September g.
For twelve hours the coast has been
swept by northeast gale, blowing at the
rate OF from fifty TO sixty miles an hour.
Old surfmen say II is the seyerest San
tember gale that has visited this pIaoe
eince 1854. The large summer house on
the bluff in front of the Florence Hotel
was broken up and carried seaward. The
storm has driven away the few guests
who remained at the hotels and two
thirds Of tho cottaeers, who generally
stay till October, have also departed Al

fragments of broken bathing houses.
The break In the Southern railroad of
New jersey was repaired thus evening
and trains are running over it. At Ocean
Grove the tide was the highest known

further than usual. The life-savInp
guard has been doubled tonight. Al
O'Clock the wind was blowing at the rate
OF sixty miles an hour. The waves are

A JOURNALISTIC BURGLAR.

HE COMMITTED RoBBERIEs AND THEN
WROTE THEM UP FOR THE PAPER.
An addition to the population of the
Eastern Penitentiry came yesterday
from Middletown in the person of Hen
ry Sherbahn, who was correspondent
Of the Harrisburg Independent, and
whose letters attracted notice by the
exclusive publication of the news of
several robberies at Middletown. The
people of the latter place began won
dering how it was that Sherbahn OBJ
tanned such accurate information of
the robberies ahead of the police even.
Two months ago, when the house OF
James Brown, near Middletown, was
plundered, and the Independent came
from Harrisburg with the exclusive news
Of II, Sherbahn was suspected TO be the
burglar, and his guilt appeared more
patent when lie described an, ther
robbery at Middletown, which was un
known to the victim until the | ap 81
came. The last exploit vas the rol be ~
| of j. X. Longenecker's store the ds =
ter Sherbahn had tried TO borrow eig II
cents from MIR. Longenecker and 10 II.
ised to benefit him in the Independent.
Sherbahn was seen coming out OIL
Longepecker's store early on the morn
ing OF the burglary. aud was arrested OF
enspicion. He pleaded gHil,y. He con
fessed that in order to obtain materia
for his correspondence he had perpe
trated the burg laries himself and wrots
his reports OF the occurrences for b,

THE FALL TRADE.

The Baltimore Sun says the mer-
camille community are turning their
attention toward the fall trade,
which, from present indications, will
be larger than for many years back.
The merchants are in good spirits
and the business this fall and win
ter will be conducted upon a more
solid and satisfactory basis, as deal.
ers are now buying to meet a con.
sumptive demand, and not upon q
speculative market. There is con.
sequently no probability of over
buying or overstocking.

When they get tried af hurrahing over
the news from Vermont, our Republican
friends will probably awake to the sad
dening consciousness that, after all they
have won very barren victory. What
they need to accomplishment in this con-
test is TO carry doubtful States. No mat
ter how large their majorities in safe
Republican States like Vermont, the
effect on Democratic prospects will
amc u 1t to nothing. Besides, the estimat-
ed majority in Vermont this year is con-
siderabiy less than that given TO Fremont
in 1856, and shows falling off of 5000
as compared with Grants majority in
1868, so that, after all, there is very
little to crow about.

the bill. Mr.. Gray was 80 pleased with
him that he drove him about the city
and then invlted him 10 tea. After re.
ceiviDg the check he proceeded to a
jewelry store, where he had previously
selected a twelve-dollar cane, presented
the check in payment and received the
diffsre ice in cash, and departed soon
afterwards.
President Gray suspected that all
might not be right, and on investigation
learned that he had registered at hotel
As Henry Mexican, Alton, Illinois, but
had not since been seen. He also dis
co yered thai he had visited book store,
made a selection of books and returned
with Gray's cheek, but AS the dealer
could not cash IL for him, IL being after
banking hours, he went to the jeweller
where he had made a similar arrange
ment to call. The truth soon flashed on
the mi nd OF the reverend gentleman that
he had been vicumized by buying q bo-
gus draft, and as his bland customer has
not turned up, he finds himself ouI
thirty-eight dollars, while the jewellel
profited by the sale of twelve-dollal
gold-headed cane. This Is evidently q
new dodge, to be used at institutions oi
learning throughout the country.

RADICAL RASCALITY.

The handsome Democratic banner of
the Robert 8. Patterson Association,
which was swung across South Second
street Philadelphia on Tuesday evening,
from 1434, the headquarters of the asso-
citation, was found in the street, muddy
and torn, the following morning, having
been prostr rated partly because OF stiff
blowing breeze and party because four
of the six Strands of the supporting Ca
BILE had been cut by steel pliers at the
hands Of some malicious person.
The poiit Of fracture was such that
no chafing ould have caused the sever
ing Of tue strands, through persons
could have tampered with the cable
without disclosing their identity. The
association has q gain hung out its banner
aud offers 500 reward for the discovery
the | Q son who caused Its downfall.
