CAPT. KIDD's TREASURE.
a Glimpse or q Big Oakea box which the Sea
Has Not Vet surrendered.

HALIFAX. June l4.-Early In the eighteenth
century Capt. Kidd was commissioned by Eng
land to hunt down pirates on this coast. 1t
seems that he did not confne his exertions to
capturing pirates, but turned his attention to
rich British merchantmen. Whether he ever
gained any treasure at this business, or what he
did with 1t, is not known. That the Captain was
hanged In England is sure.
A joint stock company has for many years
been excayating at Chester. q seaport fifty miles
from here, under the impression that Kidd buried
fabulous amounts Of ill-gotten money. What
lends color to this enterprise is that many strange
articles have hsen found buried there which
cannot be accounted for. One explanation is
that the French landed at Chester, rs they had u
settlement at La Have. not far distant, but there
are very few beyond those interested in the eN-
ploration company who believe that Kidd hid
money there, much less that any will be ever
found.

SULZER,S CUBAN PETITION.

WASHINGTON. June l4.-Representative Sui
ger OF New York Is the victim OF misplaced con.
fdence. He presented in tho House to-day n
petition asking Congress to vote belligerent
rights to the Cuban revolutionists, and brought
it into the hall on mn immense ebony reel. elah-
orstely carved and brass mounted. 1t WAS
placed in the pit just before the Speakers desk,
and was the principal attraction OF tho days
brief session. To the reporters Mr.. Suizcr said
that the petition was signed by over 5000. 600
people in the United States. residing
In every STATE and Territory; that the
for the reel had been done by a Mr.
Mayer OF his district, and no was quite proud OF
the result: The reel was an object Of curiosity

emily toyed with IT as IL II were a wheel OF for
tune. One OF them was seen to surreptitiously
place a coin on the clerks desk adjoining and
give the wheel a turn. but. finding no numbers
on II, withdrew the bet.
The clerks in the petition room, having heard
OF the immense number OF signatures credited
to 1t and having had experience, were skeptical,
and took the trouble to estimate the total by
counting the number OF sheets. They report tho
actual number OF signatures at less than is, 600.
