Money Along the TRACK.

NEwBURG, N. Y, Oct. 27.-Goshen
is mystitied over the finding of a con-
siderable sum of money at that Or
ange County village. Saturday
morning young woman employed
as servant was taking walk along
the Erie Railroad track, east OF the
village, when she came across sever
al greenbacks. She picked them up
and kept on finding more until she
had in all over 5000 in a good state
of preservation. At later hour on
the same day some trackmen came
across more bills. They searched
until nearly $1,000 had been picked
up in the vicinity. Most of the lat
ter bills were of $50 and 500 denom-
ination, and the larger part of them
were torn directly through the mid
die. The money was taken to one
o. the Goshen bangs, where it was
successfully patched up. Other par
ties found bank bills along the track
near Goshen the same day sufficient
to bring the total amount found up
to nearly $4,000. It's thought that
some bank burglar had been riding
through Goshen on an Erie train
during the nigh. previous with a
quantity of ''swag," and fearing that
he was closely pressed by officers,
had thrown the money from win
dow. If such be the case, the von-
der is why he tore up some of the
bills. At any rate, several Goshen
people are at least temporarily richer
than they were few days ago.

Grant VIII Rest In New York.

During several weeks past there
has been much speculation in the
minds of New Workers as to whether
General Grants body would remain
in New York or be removed from
the State. In order to make sure
about the matter the Grant Monu-
ment Association decided to take ac-

In the death of General Mcclellan
the country loses another OF the few
remaining conspicuous characters OF

bility to command and handle a
large army in the field, but the Sc

served under him, and the political
party to which he WAS attached cher

last roll call, his memory will be
kindly cherished as one of the prom
inen. actors in the stirring scenes
following the rebellion of the South
