The Bomb in jon Davi..s pe.k.

When the United States troops &C.
cupied Richmond, Va. April 8, 1865.
General Edward H. Ripley, Of YER
mont, who was appointed military gov
ernor OF the city, found in the desk
OF Jefferson Davis, In the house occu-
pied by the Confederate President, q
cast-iron bomb In the shape Of lump
Of coal. 1t was evidently cast from
a good sized piece OF coal. was coated
with coal tar and coal dust, and could
hardly be distinguished when handled
from a lump Of coal. 1t was hollow,
and would hold powder enough to
make heavy explosion. Army au-s
thorittes have never doubted that the:
otherwise unexplained blowing up OF
steam vessel loaded with ammuni-s
ton at City Point was the work or
bomb of this kind. which had been
dropped into a pile OF coal and SHOW
elled into the furnace of the stea mer.
and similar bombs probably occasioned
similar catastrophas during the war.

THE AMERICAN EAGLE.
(Phila Racnrl

On July 4. 1776. after the declaration
Of Independence had been read to the
Continental Congress, it was resolved
that DIR. Franklin. Mr.. J. Adams and
pare q device for a seal of the Uni
ted States" They reported on August
10. and the shielding design they rec
commended had in one of it's six diViS-
ions an eagle-a very significant little
fellow. by the way-that played a most
unimportanr part on the device.
The two main figures were the God
dcss Of Liberty and the Goddess Of
Justice. who stood beneath the Eye Of
Providence" On this design we meet
officially for the first time that well
known expression, ''E Pluribus Unum'
The quotation was one familiar to the
colonists as the motto of the Gentle
mans Magazine. and naturally sugges-
ted itself as the most appropriate de-
scripton OF the new order of things
To make q long story short, the pro-
posed seal was not accorded a favora-
Bile reception. and the committees re-
port was laid on the table.
Nothing further was done until
March 25.1779. when the matter was re-
ferred to a new committee, consisting
of James Lowell. of Massachusetts,:
Mr.. Scott. of Virginia, and William
debate their report was ordered to be
rccummitted to a new committee com
posed Of Middleton and Rutledge. OF
South Carolina, and Boudnot. OF New
Jersey.
Two years later the records show
activity in the effort to evolve suit
able device for seal, and in the mean
/; time the committee reports were re-
| ferred to the secretary OF Congress.
! Charles Thompson. The name Of Ar
! thur Lee, a member of the Congress
/ from Virginia just returned from
i France. also appears as one OF the
members to whom designs were SUB
| mittcd. The assistance Of William
Purton, NJ A., resident of Philadel-
| Dhia. was also sought. and he submit
ted an elaborate design which con-
tanned very little that was subsequent
ly used. But it is here that the eagle
! IN the description Of the device the
bird il; mentioned as being "emblemat-
| ;cal OF sovereignty"
Another design was submitted by
Charles Thompson. the secretary OF
Congress. Here we still further trace
the process Of evolution in the Ameri-
can eagle. Though we aim TO diVess
the little history OF the boast OF he
raldry," the following description con
ycys an excellent idea Of the device:

JENNY LIND.s LOVER.
Died With n Portrait OF the Singer
Clasped in His Hand
(NeIy Yor2, Press !

(.Se" 4Orn freSS.)
In wretched howell on the old post
York there died on Monday an eccen-
trio character who Is known to hun
dreds of residents OF Ulster county as
Boot" Van Steenbergh. the mad lover
OF the late Jenny Lind, the famous
songstress. She has been dead II
years. but her memory had been cher
ished by him. and when he died it was
with faded, old-faehioned portrait OF
the singer ciasped in his hand.
Tobias Won Steenbergh, the real
name of the man, had lived hermies
life In Glasco in q rude cabin ever
since his rejection by Jenny Lind. 81
Years ago jokers made him believe
that the singer loved him by procuring
forged letters from New York which
ny Lind. Van Steenbergh drew his
savings from bank. some hundreds of
dollars, and started to New York to
win her heart and hand.
Arriving in the city, he haunted the
hall where she sang, and became more
infatuated. When she left the hall to
drive home he wandered through the
streets behind her carriage, cheering
and shouting himself hoarse in her
praise. For weeks ne fingered to se.
her alone. Finally. at one Of her public
receptions, he seized her hand, press
ing it to his lips, and. falling on his
knees. told her the story Of his love.
Jenny Lind, frightened at his outburst
ordered him elected. Nightly after thi.
he haunted the hotel, but he was forcet
to discontinue his visits. Obtaining al
old hand organ, he ground out tune
in front of the hotel. His arrest ia:
lowed. but his friends caused his re-
lease, and he returned to Kingston
with his mind shattered. Later he re
moved TO Giasco. Ht@
IN front of his cabin is a flag which
files at half mast. in memory. as he
said, with tremor in his voice. OF the
death Of Abe Lincoln.
