4 MYSTERY.

A rapid glance backward over the period since
Bishop Potter sent his searching letter to Mayor
Van Wyck in the middle of last November
shows a remarkable series of scenes and Incl
dents, scarcely one of which has Yet been fully
explained or generally understood. They began
with CrOker's surprising outbreak at the meet

brought some new and startling move or reve-
lation. Among the lesser of these were Mr.

binary admissions, followed 10y silence and in

appearance of Senator Sullivan as pre-em-
nent power IN Tammany councils.
But the most interesting events and the deep
est mystery have centred about one man. and
that man is Deyery. The DeYery incidents
have been arranged in three phases First

STATEN ISLANDS FUTURE.

1t is generally acknowledged by those who
have given attention to the matter that the
development of the Borough of Richmond has
been hampered to a lamentahle extent by the
deficiencies in the ferry service. Staten Island
is delightfully."- situated i'm the magnificent har-
bOr of New York, and its natural advantages
are admirable. Between the Kill Won Kull and
the NarrOws and from the lower bay TO st.
George IT is charmingly diversified, both on the
waterfront and in the territory at a distance
from the shores. 1t ought to have population
far larger than that now contained within its
borders In many ways il is exceptionally fitted
for picturesque country seats. with its wide
variety of locations to choose from. For pOpu-
lar resorts of an acceptable kind this beautiful
island presents opportunities which have never
been availed of so literally as they should have
been. while on the water edges and elsewhere
in the county of Richmond the facilities for
commerce and trade have been comparatively
neglected
A Rip Van Wrinkle spirit has brooded too long
over Staten Island. Before now IL should
have been connected with New-Jersey by
number Of bridges. and also by tunnels: and n
tunnel should have been opened under the Mar
rows so that communication with Long Island
would have been prompt and easy Laggards
and obstructionists may say that these bridges
and tunnels would have involved large expendi-
ture. True enough But the results would have
justified the outlay The wholly inadequate
ferry service between Manhattan and Staten
Island has been of the gravest injury To the
thorough of Richmond. Vessels spacious
and as well handled the best of those which
cross the North River should be running in
generous numbers. The veneration for antiqul
ties has been allowed to hold sway in the gov
ernment of travel. There should be n revolution
i'm Staten Island ferraGe. The legislature has
been appealed 10 for action. Richmond should

transportation which has held il back SO long
