A BRIDGE AND TRAN r AWAY.
highwaymen 1 MT. Desert.

Mount Desert, NJ. got a taste, the
other day, of Weston terrorism which
has greatly excited he populace, both
native and TRANSITION. A blackboard
party of three menand half a dozen
ladies was this afternoon descending
Green Mountain, to miles from here,
when at a steep pint in the road,
whcro-eseape was impossible, they were
confronted by a bandof desperadoes,
the leader standing ii the middle of
the road, and with !. pistol in each
hand, commanding tie driver to stop.
The order was instantly complied with,
and still covering the driver and the
two men, the highwaynan approached
the carriage, while two confederates
made a flank movement in the bushes.
The leader pleasantly remarked {:
Gentlemen, I'll trouble you for your
money" accompanying the request
with a significant movement of his
cooked weapons. d Messrs. John and
Isaac Howe of Bostm, the unfortu-
nate victims, promptly handed over
their purses containing between $11OO
and $1,000 in cash The robber
pocketed them coolly, and looking the
ladies over carefully, sdded, "Now I'll
take those watches" and two elegant
gold timepieces were quickly delivered
with a pleasant "Geod day" The
desperate, with his gals, disappeared
in the bushes, and tie party, on re-
covering from their astonishment, pro-
ceeded. The town of Bar Harbor
was quickly alarmed, and large bands
of citizens are searching the island.
Messrs. Howe, who are wealthy gen.
tlemen owning an elegant cottage at
Bar Harbor, have offered $1,000 for
the capture of the lobbers, dead or
alive.

County Politics.

Uncertainty is the word that still
expresses as fully the condition Of
County politics as at any time since
that important subject has been prom
inently discussed. The action of the
johnson town caucus in electing a
delegation of avowed hostility to Mr..
Cristy's aspirations, virtually retires
him from the list of candidates for
Senator, but in his place, we under
stand, the town may bring forward R.
W. Mcfarland, who would doubtless
make a creditable Senator. This gives
the political situation an entirely new
faze. The result of the Saturday
evening c~aucuses seem to render it
quite certain that Judge Parker will
have the entire vote of Morristown
(12), Elmore (6), and four of the
Wolcott delegation, making p in all.
To this number he must secure from
the other seven towns, Is. Mr.. Page
of Cambridge, is said to be backed
by the votes of his town (9), Water
vile (6), Belvidere (3), and five of
the Wolcott delegation, making in all
%. Our information may be some
what faulty, but we give it as the
probabilities after getting advices from
the best sources known to US. The
Hyde Park delegation will probably
be divided, a part supporting Judge
Parker, and the others being an I'M
known quantity $50 far as the Sena-
tor question goes) and the same is
probably true with reference to Eden
and Stowe. The claims of J Johnson,
should the town present Mr.. McFar-
land for Senator, will be based upon
the grounds heretofore urged in favor
of Mr.. Cristy's candidacy, to wit,
that for a generation they have not
been honored with that office. Sh ould
the nomination, however, go to Cam
bridge or Elmore, there seems to be an
impression that the town will present
the name of L. A. Manning for Asso-
ciate Judge of the County Court.

Ar analysis of the principal of the
public debt of the United States just
issued by the Treasury Department
shows some interesting facts. The
debt July 1, 1856, was eleven million
dollars in round numbers. In August,
1865, the extraordinary outlays of the
war brought the debt to the highest
point reached, which was twenty-seven
hundred and fifty-six million. From
that point, under Republican manage
ment,i it has been steadily and constant
ly reduced until July 1st, 1882, it had
been brought down to sixteen hundred
and seventy-ive million. In 1856 the
debt was 36 cents for each man, wo-
man and child in the United States.
The highest point reached was s78.25
per capita. 1t is now reduced to
S31.72.
