from the outside. It's foundations were
blasted out Of the rock; the front wall i
five feet in thickness, and the side and
rear walls are three feet, the materials
used being pressed brick with brown-stone
trimmings The beams, girders and main
pillars are iron, encased in fire-pr00f ma
teEial. The doors, window-frames, and
minor PARTITIONS are iron, marble and
glass. No wood is to be found in the
structure. The great vault is thirty-six
by forty two feet, of wrought iron, steel
and Franklinife iron, Is imposing in
strength and proportions, and is situated
on the ground floor. It's four doors weigh
eight thousand two hundred pounds each,
and have every effective and known Inn
provement in defensive devices. a mas
sive wall of masonry surrounds the IRON
work. The vault, which is burglar, fire
and water proof, constitutes a distinct
building in itself. The armed watchmen
who guard the building day and night
are under the strictest discipline, their
hourly movements being recorded by an
electric clock connecting with various
points on each floor of the structure, and
there are also wires running to police
headquarters and the offices Of the d is
trict telegraph. In one corner of this
great vault, behind heavy iron bars, are
the heavier iron doors of the works con-
tanning the Vanderbilt securicties, which
can be opened only by skeleton keys held
by the owner alone. | suppose that q
hundred men in this building, with CAT
Ting guns, could easily defend it against
a mob of one hundred thousand assail-
spts; it could be reduced by nothing less
than continued play of heavy artillery.

An Anpenl to the Renublicans.

EDS. RECORD. UNION Permit me through
the columns of your journal to remark that
party zeal and personal ambition frequent
ly, in these days, lead TO resort to calumny
as a weapon with which to fight and defeat
if possible, the party in majority, and lead
voters into boiling their party nominees.
As a Republican, believing in the necessity
of two parties, and therefore in strictly
adhering to the principles of the party
to which | belong, and rs friend of an
able and honest administration of the affairs
of the Government in all its departments,
| most earnestly protest against unfair
methods of warfare resorted to in the hope
of defeating to-day the party entitled by
every principle of right and rule of politics
to dominancy in this city. Republicans
who were true to the party in the campaign
which resulted in the change of the Fede-
raj administration Justly complain of the
inexcusable conduct of certain members of
our party in New York in that national
conflict, and to whose treachery may be
ascribed the origin of i" Mugwumpism."
Local organizations constitute the founda-
ton upon which rests the national organi-
zatiOn. Shall we, by our conduct, weaken
instead of strengthen that foundation?
of the affairs of our city government into
the hands and control of the enemy, in
| dorse the sentiment tostered and promul-
gated by the Democracy of the nation; that
the mission of the Republican party is
at an end? Shall We by a temporary
utilization with party with which in
| the nature of things we cannot be in sym
pathy, assist in keeping down the best,
| the truest and the most faithful friend
the Government as ever had? If Repub-
licans in cities and in counties in which
they are in the majority, either with the
avowed purpose or by apathy, permit
| their opponents to defeat them, then ii
may well besaid that the absolute DISCO
luton of the party to which this country
and her institutions are indebted for Their
perpetuation is inevitable.
Fellow Republicans, if we, as political
organization, must die, let it be death
from natural causes, and not by suicidal
policy. The personnel of our ticket is one
to which no good citizen can except. DR.
Lame has proved himself well qualified
tor the position for which he has been re
nominated, and is most efficient Super.
intendent, while the balance of the ticket
is made up of gentlemen who are inter
ested in the welfare of our educationa
system, and will do all in their power tC
advance Its efficacy. REPUBLICAN.

THE MEXICAN DOMAIN.
Exploration of the Country by Colonel
Cav.


Enrique Gay, Colonel of the General Staff
and Chief of the Commission of Natural
History and Colonization, organized by the
Mexican Government for the purpose of
discovering and describing the public do
mains of Mexico, arrived in this city on
Saturday. Colonel Gay has been conduct
ing his explorations in Mexico for the last
six years, and had constantly under his
direction a corps of engineers. The idea
incorporated in the creation of the eXplora-
ton commission was to obtain such
knowledge of the unoccupied public lands
of Mexico that new department of the
Government could be formed, to have ex-
elusive control OF all the real estate, mines.
fisheries and unreclaimed lands belonging
to the nation. Colonel Gay was called on
by Chronicle reporter, and in the course
of conversation said:
. After thorough examination of Mex
leo from one end to the other / can say that
that country is destined in time to be one
of the richest nations on the continent
What it needs is population, or at least 9
race that is industrious. The resources OF
Mexico are but a continuation of those
found on the Pacific coast. To show how
the country requires colonization, it is only
necessary to state that over eighty-eigh
millions of acres of land produce nothing
in Mexico. The richness of land in the
| interior of Mexico is well known. TIL,
climate in such sections is temperate, tn,
fever districts being confined to the coas
lines. The Mexican Government propose
| to take on new life in regard to its publ,
domain, and to see that the national land
no longer remain unoccupied.' In regart
| to the Mexican position on the Tehuante
| pee Canal project, Mr.. Gay states that h

royal time Of it this Christ
mas, that is, if Santa Claus
brings but part Of the
things provided for them.
Saturday night the little
ones, three and four deep,
could be seen standing in
eager anticipation before our
Toy Window, with noses
and finger tips tightly
squeezed against the glass,
and all the time keeping up
a constant chatter as to their
probable share of the gen
eral luck. One thing is
sure, if some of the more
popular objects Of admira-
ton are not found in their
stockings on Christmas Day
there will be some lively ex-
hibitions of youngster rage
and disappointment.
Many of our toys this
year are entirely new, and
as such are objects of I'M
ceasing curiosity. Before
us as we write is the Won
derful Gigantic Egyptian
Caravan, a Royal Menage-
RE of Perfectly Trained
Animals toy sure to de-
light our future P. T. Bar

Bridge is another large toy.
1t folds, however, into small
space and is moderate in
cost. A California Ranch
house with barns, little milk
houses, stock, fences, trees,
herslers, etc.-will be priced

are but a few OF the many
things here for boys. Blu
reaus, Bedsteads, Kitchens,
Washboards are some Of the
more practical toys for girls.
Dolls and Doll Things are
SO important that we shall
have to devote a separate
announcement to them some
day this week.

MrsMERIc ExHIBIrIoN-Young Goht

MEsMERIc Young Goheen.
" the Mesmerist," had a fair house at the
Metropolitan Theater last night Out of
thirteen candidates to be experimental
upon he chose nine whom he could con
troll, and with six of these he did some
very clever things. In fact, he gave some
of the very best examples of the power of
operators of this class. For instance, one
subject, under the influence" sat mo-
tionless while Goheen drove a large
needle and heavy thread through the
RICH ear, thence through the fold
of the right cheek. thence through
fold of the throat, and finally through the
fold of his left cheek, where the needle was
left sticking. In this condition he COM
PEELED the man to walk through the au-
| dience for examination by skeptics. Not q
drop of blood was drawn by the operation,
and the subject manifested no sense of
| feeling whatever. Another subject he
Frustrated and rendered his body so rigid
| that, with the heels on the back of one
| chair and the shoulders on the other, the
body remained stiff as board and other
wise unsupported. The chairs being turned
down and the space little lesser1ed, and
| the subject again suspended by Its two
ends Goheen sat upon the stomach of the
patient without breaking down the human
bridge. Some were shocked as by bat
terry others made to fight bees; others
rendered incapable of walking, or of drop
ing billiard cue at will, etc. and the Lulu
Hearst feat of pushing person about

Cohen when having but the ends of two

GRAND LARcENY.-In the Police Court,
last week, John Baker was held to answer
for grand larceny, in stealing money from
man named p. J. Murphy in saloon
and the same day Edward Duffy was tried
and convicted of petit larceny, in stealing
So from Murphy while they were in the
same saloon on the same evening that the
other offense was committed. On Duffy S
arrest only 81 was found upon him, and
that was all that could be proven III Court
he had taken but afterwards, on q more
thorough search q $5-piece was found con-
cealed in his boot, between the counter and
outer leather. Officers Farren and Ash,
who arrested Duffy, also took in charge a
young man named Donahue who was in
his company. After his conviction Duffy
"squealed," and informed the officers OF
another offense, of which they had not
known. 1t seems, from his statement, that
last Monday night Duffy and Donahue, ac-
companied by another youth named Flani-
gan, took Murphy to the theater, afterwards
got him so drunk that he did not know
anything, took him, about A. NJ, to where
it was dark on Fourth street, between X
and l., and robbed him of his silver watch
| and all the money he had about him In
removing his watch the chain broke, and a
portion OF 1t remained i'll its owners vest
Ascertaining that this was the case, Flani.
gan went back and got it. The watch was
then concealed, but it will be recovered, as
the officers have been informed of Its
whereabouts. Flanagan kept ont of sight
tor few days afterwards, but officers Kent
| and Farrell, knowing that he was wanted
! arrested him Saturday afternoon. He had
that day, it is said, met Murphy and en.
| deavored to persuade him to leave town.
