THE NTDE PARK WATER-WORKS. _Something over a ycar ago Tuk Twixcxe pub- lished an article showing that the title to the lands on which the Tiyde Park Water-Works stand was not clear, and thst the town might lose them. Thi¢ tract, comprising three acres, was donated to the town by Mr. John A. Fitch, who owned sixty scres there. It was at the time of the donation gubject Lo a trust-deed of $25,000 to Gen. John A. Dix, and this is about to be foreclosed, as a decree was entered to that effect yesterday. The case came up before Judze Blodgett yesterday on escep- tivns to the Master's report in favor of the sale, 3ud the followiug are the Judge's remark: These are exceptions to the Master's report, and the substance of the case and of the exceptions are simply these: One Fitch made a mortgage to Jobn A. Dixtosccare a loan of money. conveying by the mortgage atract of land in the Town of Iiyde Park, containing ubout sixty acres. Default was made by Fitch in the payment of the amount, and 2 bilt was filed by Dix to foreclose. Certain partics who had purchared from Fitch, subject 1o the mortgage or after the makine of were made parties defendant, und amqug them wese the Vi Iage of Ryae Park and the tdywn of Lake. Itappears from the evidence udduced before the Master that the Towns of Hyde Park and Lake obtained by conveyance from Fitch three acres, upon which they buve erected their water-works. It is now urged by way of exception to the Mas- ter's report that the Court should make sume spe- cific order as to the amount for which the property last sold sbould brng at the sale. I do wmot see from any view T am ableto tike of the case, that the Court can at present make auny suchorder. It £eems to be just enough 1o make a decree that the property should be ~uld in the iuverse order of alienation. which i~ the ordinary practice adopted Ly this court. When the Master's reportof the #ale comes in it wall be for the court to say whether the sale is 2 fair one under the facts of _the case. It uppears adirmatively, aud § donot think it isout of place for me 1o *ay. that the town= of liyde Park and Lake have expended a large sum in the erection of water-works: that these three acres of Iand are improved for that special purpose: it is rot an improvem-nt in tie ordinary sense of the word, whien sdd- to (he value of the lund.

DBut here the paties are in privity. The twa towns_claitn_from Fitch by convevance from him. and Fitch is the mortacer of complainant. They zre therein in direct privity with complain- anl. The occupying claimant's law does not appiy. The objections will be overruled. If tie property which was sold subseauently to the onstion shoall not be_sufiicient to satisfy the decree. the size of the Water-Works would of cousxe have 10 be sold or bought in by the town authoritics.

Welsh, according to the subseyuently recited by her at Police Headquarters, jokingly . said 4 Yes,” whereat the stranger tock the child in his@rms and hurriedly left the place by a side door, before the astonished mother could gain time to raise an aiarm. _After scarching the streets in the neighborhood for npward of balf an honr without succeeding in finding any trace of the gentleman and the infant, Mrs. Welsh went 1o Police Headquarters and reported the facts to Capt. Copeland. Detective Jeremish ‘Wood, who was assigned to aid the woman in recovering her infant, accompanied her to the corner of Soring strectund Broadway, and there ascertained that the stnm'r'c geutleman had purchased a ticket for Mobile. "The detective, accompanied by Mrs. Welsh, at oned procecded 10 the fuot of Dusbrosses street, where they spent some time in watching the outgoing pus- sengers in the hope of detecting among them the gentleman with the blue-eved baby. About 7 ¢'clock last evening the doorman at the Police Central ollice ushered into the pri- vate oflice of Inspector McDermott a tall, dark gentleman, who infurmed the Inspector that be was Dr. Easton, of New Orleans, temporarily residine with his wife and five children at the Tremont House, No. 365 Broudway, After thus introducing bimselt Dr. Kaston said: *Mr. In- spector, this afternoon, while Iwas buyinga Jl-m to Mobile formy wife at the office of the Pennsylvania Railroad, on Broadway, an un- couth but rattier pleasant-faced Irish woman entered the place, carryingin her arms one of the prettiest bluc-eyed babics I ever saw.

I was instantly scized with an almost un- controllable_desire 10 become the possessor of that baby, for, althonzh 1lhve fve children, they are all darle. Well, to continue my narra- five, I went up to the woman and layfully asked ~her if she would ct’ me have the baby. and bless your heart, her answer drove ne almost wild with joy. Shesaid, * Yes, she would surrender the ©chilil to any persou who would promise to talke 250d care o 1t.” Iassured ber that I would sladly adopt the child. and cherish it with us much care and tenderness as if it were my own. The wowan unhesitatingly handed me the baby, and J immediately took it to my notel, where 1 said to my wife, * Lovk: at last we have wot what we have heen yearning fora_long time— a pretty blue-eved baby.”” “Mrs. Easton wus, 1 assure you, perfectly delighted, and as for the youngsters, why, they huzzed that blessed baby until it gave a yell o We stripped the little mite "of its 1 ble clothing, and while iy wife ws out a list of garments to comi its new outiit, I just gave it a batn, and then, after Mrs. Easton had made the neeessary purchases of buby-clothine, dressed our new-founa darling fu gorgeons r ment. Well, to be brief, a short time o I acv dentally heard that all the police in_town were lookivg for me and that bLeby, snd as 1 have no desire whatever to deprive the mother of her child, if she wants it; T deem it my dutv to come here and surrender tie child.” Dr. Easton had nearly concluded his extraordi- nary narrative before Detective Wood and Mrs. Welsh walked into the Inspector’s office. See- ing the Doctor, the wowan cried_out, & There is the man that took my d.” The Doctor smi ingly requested her to accompany him to the Totel, and said that he would wllliugly give the baby back, and, finully, after some further ex- planations to the astonished Inspector, Dr. Easton, the mother, and Detective Wood re- paited to the Tremont House, where they found the wonderful blue-eyed baby * dressed to kill,”” as Mrs. Welsh expressed it, the recipient of un- limited homage from Mrs. Easton and her tive black-haired children. The delighted mother would have taken her infant then, but, at the request of Dr. Easton, went home to consult with her busband us to the advissbility of sur- rendering it to the Easton family. Much to the regret of the Doctor and his wife and children, Mrs. Welsh returned at 10 p. m. to baby and to take it back to its humble home in the crowded tenement on South Fifth avenue. IWITAT SHERMAYN DIDN'T TELL. To the Editor of the Boston Post: The ** Mem- oirs of Gen. Sherman” is a very fascinating hook. especially the larze portion devoted to his march from Atlanta to the sea, and we ad- mire the frankness of the soldierin dealing with others, as well as his skill and bravery in accomplishing his grand task. But the General otnits an ancedote anent bis taking Savaonab, which should be true, as related to the writer, for it is so intrinsically likely to have happened that its authenticity cannot be gainsaid without the General’s own denial. After the taking of Fort Macalister, and the evacustion of the place by Hardee, Gen. Sher- man entered the city, and among blis *bum- mers” was a well known Boston reporter, who had gone through the march with him, taking notes and contriving to steal enough pouttry aud other things for his support. Arriving at Savauuah, Tom Miles, the report- er aforesaid—though that was not his pame— went prospectinz round the city, and, by that mysterious attraction known to the print-craft, found himself in a vacated printing office. It presented a golden opportunity. There were iypes and presses, and ull the paraphernalia es- sential to business, with a form ou the press, which the priuter bad left in his fliznt, and Mileg, taking out the editorial sad other of- fensive matter, filled 1ts columus with healthy Union seatiment, with the aid of one or two of the craft whom he had discovered iu the army. His leader was a rich specimen of crowing over the victory, in which be extolled Gen. Sherman a5 the greatest bero since Alexander, and his army_ the finest and best disciplined that the world ever saw. _ With this graud tlourish of trumpets the first number was issued, and Miles lay back in his editorial chair, contem- plating liis work with_the belief that he had achieved the next triumph to Sherman’s, aud wondered what the conqueror would say when he saw the praises he had heaped upon bim. The next morning, as the General and Lis stafl were about taking breakfast,a paper was handed to him,—the Savannah JRepublican, I think,— and he commenced to read the leader which was 50 lavish in bis praise. * Lookbere!” said he, red and furious, “ What the-d—1 does this mean! Who knows any- thing about this paper ¢ His orderly, who had known something about its preparation, explained to bim that it was the work of onc of the¢ literary gentleman who had foliowed the expedition. “Weil,” said the General, “go down to the office and tell him to discontinue Lis paper or Pllput him under guard. Iwon’t have such cursed stuff printed about me when 1 can pre- ventit. Abuse is bad enough, but thisisa deuced signt worse.”” Down went the m‘dcrlf‘. and the confusion of poor Miles was overwhelming when be wot the squelcher from the General Commandin: “ Why, it wasall praise,’ said be. + No matter for that. If it had Lcen the other way it would have been treated just the same.” So Miles moved a compromise,—we hardly know what,—and urged the official to express his regrets and beg the removal of the injunc- tion, which was promised. The apneat was suc- cessful, and soon the officer came back toinform him that permission was granted him to run his paper, on condition that he should never men- tion the General’s name again. This wasagreed 10, aud the paper appeared. After a day or two an aide came down ooe morning with an order from Gen. Sherman, for -publication. Miles glanced over it and handed it buck. It can’t go in, sir,” said he. “Why not ¢" asked the astonished messenger, who was a stranger. ** Because it has Sherman’s name on it,”? was the reply. “ That’s the reason why it must go in,” urged the aide. “And that’s the rcason why it shan’t. He sco.Y ned my paper for praising him, and 1 prom- ised him that his name should never appear in my columns again, aud bang me if it shall.”” Miles stoud resolute, and the oflicer returned for orders, expecting the ordering out of a file of men and an arrest, but was astouished to see the General burst into the bLeartiest laugh and Dear him confess that the priuter had_the b of it. The messenger was sent back with & cu ciliatory note, aud there was no more trouble. I SHOE-PEGS. Boston Journal. Huntington has a pretty little settlement called Dayville, nestled amoung the mountains near the Boston & Albany Railroad, of which the principal business is the manufacture of shoe-pegs,—an insizuilicant business, it would scem, but important enough to be a distinct and interesting industry. The shop belongs to A. G. Day & Son, and is the principal one of the kind in all this region. The pegs are made of birch wood, which comes to the mill in logs a foot or two 'in_diameter. and these are pecled and cut into slices of the length of the pegs to be made. 5 The sections then pass throngh a machine, which points the pews, there being from 20,000 to 30,000 in cach separate picce, and they are then pased each way by square through the **split- ter.” which separates each individual peg. After being dried it a revolving heated dram and cleaned in a revolving sifter, -they are ready for the market, and the four or five men in the fac- tory make from twenty-five to thirty bushels a dug, according to the size of the pegs. The town of Spencer has buen supplied from this piace for aver thirts years, and the goods have been sold in all sections of the country, and even in England. . AN AMATEUR CHIMNEY-SWEEP. Detroit Tridune. A 1qyear-older who boards with his parents on Congress street, east, near Hastings, bas Jately taken a strange notion that he wounld like to be a chimney-sweep. Wednesday afternoon he armed himself with a broom, crept out of an attic window, upon the roof, and sclected a large chimney connected with a *blind . sreplace 25 2u’ experimental ficld of operations. The ten feet was -passed. over in a very rapid man- ner, but when the ambitious urchin undertook to climh eracefully up by the pressure of his knees and back azafnst the side of the chimuey, lLe found it to be a tourher job than he antici- pated. . Atter ten minutes’ exertion he became alarmed, and in twenty minutes was howling at the top of bis voice. The ncighbors heard his shrieks, after he was nearly dead with fright and exbaustion, and finally succeeded in traciug the sotnds o the chimney. A rope was then let dowu, and in a few minutes the blubbering south was drawn up to <lie daylight and put tiroagh a course of discipline, which will no doubt prove highly beneficial in its resalts. A SCIENTIFIC. PROPOSITION. Paris Letter. ‘There is -now told a funny story of a very scientific ¢lerk in a provincial bookstore who, during the delense of Paris, was afilicted with a grand desire and a new method of destroying the beleaguering Prugsians. Every morning he sent to the Conmittee of Defense a report, and one of these repurts, reading as follows, has been lately discovered: “ In the nume of the Holy One. having con- sulted the Lord of -Hosts, aud being authorized to destroy the Prussian battalions, we have de- cided and do decide: “The air which we breathe is composed of two gases—oxygen which supports life d mtrowen which Gestroys it. “ Therefore, in order to destroy an army sud- denly and without remedy, it is only necessary to suppress instantly the” oxyucen in the atmos- phere, and all the soldicrs will fall down dead, killed by the nitrogen.” It d that so simple and inzenjous a prop- osition as this was received with shouts of Junghter. So Paris fell. “NEXT DOOR.? Detroit Free Press.

What’s the use of being so mighty higl-toned about nothing BLUE GRASS." Austin (Nec.) Heceille. Tt will afford Gen. Pleasonton considerable gratification to learn that bis blue-glass remedy is being thoroughly tested in this vicinity with eminently satisfactory results. A friend of ours Wwas induced to place a pane of the material in the front room window, aud during that week the roof stopped leakine; the blue rays vac- cinated two of the children; and animpértunate, cre bill, fell and broke his Jez. 1n another case where it was tried the head of the family fu- formed us that he played pedro all night with- out being stuck, aud Dis mother-in-Jaw died the next worning. Awong the pumerous iastances which have come to our knowledge of the bene- ficial effects produced by blue grass may be mentioned that of the President of the Sazerac. He carries a piece around in his pocket, and camne very near gojng to church once. and has ouly been drunk twice since he commenced the practice. POPULAR SUFFRAGE IN JAPAN. Topular snffrge has been put to a sinzular test in u village of Awa, Jupau. The nefghbor- Liood was harassed by a midnicht robber, whom nobody could detect. The head of the hamlet summoned the entire male population under his charge, and directed every man to write the name of the persou whom he suspected and to deposit the ticket ina box. Fifteen ballotsbore the name of Abe Tanihei, the rest beiug blanks. The man whom evervbody distrusted was S0 overcome with astonishment that he made fuli confession and went to prisn. — BOARDING AND LODGING.
