Pardon Granted.

On Friday last the pardon Of Charles A.

term of court of manslau hter for the killing of
Capt. BRYANT, alias RED Hot at Rock Point
during the summer of 1885, was received at The
Clerks office here aud notice sent that iughart
had been set at liberty by the order of Governor
L,uvd This case will be remembered by our
readers Hughar and Bryant quarreled over
a game of cards and during the progress of the
quarrel Bryant banded Hushart his pistol who
took it and immedi ,tely shot Bryant through
heart causing instant death. Tie defense en-
deavored to show that the shooting was in self
defense, bat after bearing the evidence Hughar
was convicted of msaslaughter by the jury and
sentenced TO four years aud six months in the
penitentiarv. This sentence has just been re-
mtted hy the Governor after the prisoner had
served eight months of his term W. NJ.
Muschette ESQ, interested himself very zeal
ouslv in securing the pardon, and it WAS mainly
through hi. efforts that the prisoner regalned
his liberty. Hughart has gone TO Virginia
from which Safe he originally came and 1t is
not thought that he will again return 10 this
county. Owing to the bad reputation of Bry-
ant and other causes much sympathy was felt
for Hughart during the progress Of hi. trial.

Oil in Bulk.

The petroleum trade between the
rrited states and England says the
london Time,, has hitherto been carried
IN by means OF ships. which bring the
oil over in barrels ready for the market
n has however. been thought thai an
advantage would be gained by bringing
fbe petroleum over in bulk and barrel
n + here. To this end the Crusader
of Ncw York. was purchased ami fitted
,p with tanks, and has lust brought
over her first cargo of oil, which is
being dis harged in the Regents canal
dock.
The Crusader is a bark of 632 tons
req stcr. timber built. and fitted with
f3-fg five cylindrical iron tanks, which
are cauable together of carving III, 900
rglcns Of oil, American measure, or
ia. 500 gallons, English measure. There
are also eight auxiliary tanks for use in
case of the expansion Of the oil by varil-
tious of temperature. The tanks are all
fitted in the cargo space of the vessel,
ami on deck is Blake steam
pump Of eight-horse power nominal,
supplied with steam from twenty horse
power
At New York the oil was brought
alongside the ship in tank lighters from
the refinery anl pumped into the tanks
on board the Crusader In the Regents
canal dock the converse Of this is now
going on. The oil-which is refined
petroeum-is being pumped from the
tanks on board the ship through
about 100 feet of four inch pipe, which
has been laid under ground to the dock
basin.
AT this latter point the oil is dis.
charged into tank lighter capable of
carrying 5000 gallons The oil is con
veyed to a wharf on the Thames, where
il will be barreled for the market The
tanks on board the Crusader arc all con
necte1 with each other and with the
pump by pipes and valves, so that they
can be used altogether, in several groups
or singly, as may be desired Should
this initial movement prove successful

A Singular Molor for vessels.

A 100-fOot boat with singular
motive power is building in Brooklyn
ship-yard, the design of Mr.. Townsend,
foreman of the yard. a little ten
horsepower steel engine will be placed
in her hull and used to compress air,
500 pounds to the square inch, when
will then be stored in vessel similar
to those used in soda water fountains.
1t will then be mixed with vaporiZed
crude petroleum, which forms an eX-
plosive to be fired by an electric spark
through cylinders leading to holes IN
the side of the vessel. This causes
powerful concussion on the water and
gives the motive power. There are
two holes on either side. twelve fee'
from the stern, which run almost par
allel with the sides. These are used
for forward propulsion. Two more
nine feet further forward. at right
angles with the sides, will stop the
boat by simultaneous discharge or
turn her by single discharge. BY
experiments already tried it has been
demons rated that seventy-fve explo-
sions a minute can be obtained, each
one with force enough to blow an or
binary nagstone eighty or ninety feet
1t is said that any kind of vessel anoat
either sailing or steam, can be altered
in very short time and the necessary
engines put in. The boat when launch
ed will be rigged as a schooner and
the trial will then take place.
