No matter what individual opinions may
be held as to which city should have the fair,
all will agree that the vilification of rival
cities in the fight is extremely foolish, while
internal wranges such as are going on in
New York are disgraceful, not only to the
metropolis, but to all America.

face case OF innocence. II she floaJed, she
was clearly witch and must be executed.
Mercy Disborough and Goody Clawson both
f1oated-" like cork''-nor did one pious
servant of the Lord succeed in pressing the
former under, albeit he did dutifully and
stoutly try. The Clawson woman, however,
and we believe one or two other witches,
were acquitted; but Mercy Disborough was
not so easily let off. She had sorely afflicted
divers persons by supernatural pinchings,
prickngs and still worse punishments But
there was some hitch in the proceedings;
there was another trial, and though she was
again convicted, it is pretty well ascertained
that for some occult reason she never was
executed. The Times says, edltorially $500,
that one whole family, named Godfrey, in
Fairfield County, were hanged for witch
craft and that one witch was burned in
Hartford-but this latter statement was an
error. Witchcraft, mixture of supersti-
ton, paganism and distorted Christianity
got its definite character from the old doc
trine Of Satan. In the vain ponderings on
the origin of evil, the constitution of the
will, and such problems, the superstition of
the Middle Ages rose like foul exhalation
and swept over England and Germany The
world was subject not to one God but two
and 1.-The Deviln had power only second to
that of God, and this power, which had en-
abled him to seduce Eve, qualified him to
lead astray her descendants. There was one
wizard to every hundred witches; so the
men oftener escaped accusation. But what
frightful time it was-when any malicious
or half-psychologized woman could accuse
any other of her sex, and have her tried
(and very likely convicted) of such mon
strous things 1t seems astonishing that
convictions of wiJchcraft were reached in
England as late as 1736-and executions in
Germany almost as late as the beginning of

I~NSTALMENT NO. z.
SYNDICATE FOUND ITSELF IN AN EMBARRASSING AND DANGEROUS petition.

Early the next morning the little feet of the
Syndicate prepared 10 carry out its further
orders. The waters OF the lower bay were
now entirely deserted, craft of every descrip-
tion having taken refuge in the upper part of
the harbor, near and above the city. There
fore as soon asst was light enough to make
observations, Repeller No. l did not hesitate
to discharge a motor-bomb into the harbor, a
mile or more above where the first one had
fallen. This was lone in order to explode
any torpedoes which might have been put
into position since the discharge of the first
bomb.
There were very few people IN the city and
suburbs who were at that hour out of doors
where they could see the great cloud of
water arise towards the sky, and behold il
descend like a mighty cataract upon the har-
Tor and adjacent shores but the quick,
sharp shock which ran under the town made

people spring from their beds and although
nothing wal then to be seen, nearly every
body felt sure that the Syndicate's forces had
kc.un their days work by exploding another
mine.

Lsan ordered to leave when the fort was eyac-
uated, as they might be in danger in case OF
q bombardment, was 80 shaken by the explo-
sion of this motor-bomb that it fell in ruins
on the rocks upon which 1t had stood.
The two crabs now took the Ateel net from
its moorlngs and carried it up the harbor.
This was rather difficult on account of the
islands, rocks and sandbars; but the leading
crab had on board a pilot acquainted with
those waters. With the net hanging between
them, the two submerged vessels, one care
fully following the other, reached q point
about two miles below the city, where the net

Odele H. Southwick. the stately and beau
iful wife of Herbert M. Southwick, the real
estate man. asks Judge Freedman, in Part ii.
of the Superior Court, for a judgment for
Ca 900, and the defendant is her own father,
Andrew S. Hamersley, q cousin of the late
Louis Hamersley and by marriage of the
Duchess of Marlborough.
Mrs. Southwick descends from William
Livingston. the last Royal Governor OF New
Jersey, and the first Colonial Governor of
the Mosquito State. He was her great-great-
grandfather. and his is not the only name in
her ancestry emblazoned on the scroll of
fame.
Andrew s. Hamersley is now seventy-two
years of age. He lives at 5s East twenty fifth
street, and although he is a graduated lawyer
he has never used his diploma save as an
ornament 10 his library wall.
He has been q gentleman of leisure all his
lie. He was Major at the time of the
famous New York bread riots and was injured
in the fight on that occasion.
Mrs. Hnmersley: his wife. died in 1871,
leaving considerable property. There were
three children, Andrew S.. ir.. William

her.

He has never paid this sum, and now, in

The aged parent sets up III his defense that
he has been paying . per cent. interest all

ders the bond null and void.
August p. WAGNER appears as counsel for
the elder Hamersley, and the case was this
morning postponed till next week, Mr..
WAGNER stating that the old gentleman was
i'll at his home.
Mrs. Southwick's lawyers think that the

rs long as possible.

The representatives of the late Henry p.

lost over $35, 900 of their trust funds, say that
the statement that the losses from his embezzle-
ments will reach a total of $40, 900 is entirely
erroneous.
1t has been found upon Investigating his &C
counts that he owed money to one OF two estates
for which he was trustee, but the amounts are
small compared to the church-fund embezzle-
