Among the portraits in the private
gallery of a well known citizen is one of
Gen. Alexander McDougall, who was
the first president of the bank of New
York. Gen. McDougall took very
active part in the events which led up
to the Revolution, and during the strug-
gle his best energies were always at the
services of his country He was born
in Scotland, on the island of Islay. in
1871, coming to this country with his
father as boy. Tradition says, and
his enemies repeated it, that his first
calling was that of a milkman's bow.
Afterward he went to sea, rising until
he came into command During the
French and Indian war he was captain
OF a privateer called the Tiger He
left this occupation soon after, and be-
came a shipping merchant, being also
known for his attention to public af-
fairs. lie was a Son of Liberty in 1865,
and ten years later was made the com
mander of one of the New York regi-
ments. He was commissioned a brig
adler general in 1776, being engaged in
all the conflicts around New York.
When Arnold betrayed his country, he
was succeeded in the command of the
post at West Point by Gen. McDougall

The natives of the Gilbert group of
islands have enjoyed veritable wind
fall A large ship with full cargo
and nobody on board sailed into their
harbor. The vessel was the British
ship Rock Terrace, and the strange
part about the matter is that the sh. D
was abandoned by her crew about
twelve months ago, and, instead OF
laundering soon. she drifted on and
ON until she reached the Gilbert
islands. She left Philadelphia for
Japan in September, 1887, with a
cargo of oil and phosphates valued at
$4,000. When near the Philippine
island the crew abandoned their YES
sel, landing on an island close by, all
OF them being saved. Nothing further
was heard OF her and the underwriters
Paid the sum for which she was in
sured. She had but few inches of
water in her hold and was in fair CON
dition. She was owned in ST. John,
