NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 30, 1855. Within the past few years, rumors have often reached the metropolis relative to the exceeding beauty of the lake and mountain scenery in Putnam county, in this ‘State, and more particularly specifying Lake Mahopac, near Carmel. In certain circles it had been stated that for beautiful scenery, pure air and general prerequisites for health and pleasure, this region fas exceeded New- port, Saratoga, Sharom Springs, Cape May, or any of the fashionable summer resorts, In order to obtain ocular evidence as to the truth of these statements, on Saturday lait I took tickets at the Harlem railway «tation for Croton Falls, about fifty miles from New York, They charge one dollar and twenty-five cents for the ride, and it is, without exception, considering the quality of ‘the road, the dearest one that I ever suffered. Indeed, 1 doubt whether or not it is a railroad at all. It is a sort + f corduroy road; and all the brokers who have been spe- culating in its stock ought to be calied corduroy brokers, Without a single exception, it is the most abominable nd most damnable specimen of a railroad on the face of he earth. Well, after two hours jolting, such as one might have suffered thirty years ago in travelling over the worst 1 oads in the western part of th.s State, 1 reached Croton Falls, which are branches of the Croton dam, and part of the eource from which New York degives the pure and bountiful supply of Croton water. We found several earriages, public and private, wait- ing at the station for the ure of residents or travellers, snd jumped into that belonging to Baldwin’s Hotel— driven by a bright-faced negro, who takes very good care ef his horses. We had betore usa ride of dve miles to Lake Mahopac, wnica was one of the objects of our search, After a two hours’ journey, during which we passed through defiles, up uill and down dale, now clumbing one hill, now descendiag another, now crossing a branch of the Crotonr.ver, and now passing under ths shadow of a dark mouataia, we reached Baldwin’s Hotel, near the lake, where I beheid one of the most beautiful scenes that I have ever looked upon. Lake Mahopac is a most beautiful eheet, rather irregu- lar in its formation, and contaias three islands. Itis sur. rounded with undulating shores, covered with verdure, huge granite rocks, fine farms aai hardy peopls, Its water is as pure and clear as crystal. I have sean nothing superior to it in point of pataral beauty of sce- nery, notexcepting the famous iskes of Switzerland, the poetic Lake of Como iu !taly, or the peautiful Lochs of Scotland, in praise of which the barp of the Nortn joined ita sweetest strains, Baldwin’s Hotel is @ comfortable country house, situated om the lake shore. 1: 1s weil conducted, aad during the summer season it is well patronized. It ap- pears that this place is a great resort for Wall street men—financiers, brokers, su powners and other busi nees men, who meet here to enjoy a respite from the toils of trade and sinuosities 0: wtock specuistioas, But at Would seem that these gentiemea have kept their place of resort @ secret, for there 1s noc « more delightful region ta the worla, ihe couutry around Lake Mahopas is full of pic- turesque lakes, and itis irom there sources that the city ot New York is indebteu for her splendid Croton Aqueduct. ‘The fishing on the lake is very tins, and uring the evening I stroiiea down tothe shore. Twenty or thity boys, reeidiny im the viewity, were hauling a reine net filled wita ihe lke fish. La’each haul they Secures atleast ity, while ous haul netted over a hau- dred, icluding pickerel, hake, perch, and nearly all kinds of fresh water tisa, except trout. We were ut- terly shocked by the burvarity of this proceeding of ensvering fish by the hawuied. It is as bad as shooting Gown cemocrats by the thousand in the streets of Paris morcer to establish an ewpue. Now, if a party of two or three, or halt a cozen, wita rods wna nice tackle, take a Dest, and, aiter a plensaut suil, drop a liae aad catcu the fish, one sta time, 1 isa gentlemanly and Chrisiianlike *port. A miulster of tue Gospe: might inculge 1m it without the slightest impropriety, But this practi.e of bauling thea in by the hundred, and thus robbing visiters o: sport during the season, shouid be visttea by the severest penalties One afterucon 1 took ® horse aud wagon and weat to Carmel by the usual rows, and returned oy a moun- tain, sround which skiris the shore of Lake Guead, @ ematier sheet of water thau Msbopas, Carmel is the county town of Putnam, wou may take rank as sa smportant place in this region of lakes and mountaine, im consequence. About this region there are mapy resicents who are to be founa almost every day ip Wali street, and who seex repose from the buils avd bears in the heights of Car- mei, Putosm county is worth atcention. Ivhas great crops ana provuces pure water without stot, fixe butter, excellent cream, plenty of granite boulcers, a number of smart financiers, lots of fat cat- tle and a plentiful growth of young boys, all fit to be ecucated ior Presidspts, Some of the riccest men in the State have resided here. Keymona, who was once « gteat stowman of wild animals, and mao much more sincere and modest than sarnum, has lett here striking memorials of his jiberality. He diea some time since, having first Conated monry to establish a first class ae- mipary for youth, anu some of bis connections are now living in & splendi + palace on the shures of toe lave, en- joyiog vbe profits of hts furtune, amassed by poking up the lions and making the tigers growl. The ceive from Carmel to Ualiwin’s by the Lake Gi ead road aflords the most picturesque scenery 1 nave ever met wito. Inaeec, itis much itke tae mountain road toCbamouny tron Martgny by the Tete Noire, or that from Geneva up one of tue branches of tbe Ruoue to Mont Blanc. A well informed young fellow who was im the wagon with me, who had been educated in Swi weriend aad had travelied ou foot over all the roa: leading to Mont Blans, not.ced the similarity of scenery at once. Indeed, no scenery in the country can compare with thet around Jake Mahopas. ‘This region is evidently a healthy one, There is at all staco0s # delicious, pure breeze from the lake. I telt twenty per cent stronger the aay after I arcived, so revi- vityiog was the effect of tae mountain atmosphere, alter I bad,beco eweltering in the bot streets of New York. Un the miorming after l arrived, after breakfast, 1 took waik of ten or twelve miles over hills, through thickets, arcuna penicavlas, without ieeling tne slightest fatigue, #0 bracing was the air, ana s0 enlivening was the beauti- which surrounded ms five or #ix houses near Lake Mahopac which pd Mr, Brigge 1s buitcing a new hotel. It 18 to bea large pauloing, busit hay the most villanous location imagmable, Icey bave stuck a new hotel oa a littie bit of land, as if there was not room eaough and land enough in the vicinity to put it upon site where there would be room, pleaty of it ct the muitifarious business of such iskment. The house is to be so close to the that all the dirt and filth will fall from beauty and utili- 4 that 8 Company of gen- tis called the Peninsula tor stel upon it, It isa neck of shape at the lower end ot the lake, jutstag out centre, and nearly surrounded by water. I noticed recently in one of the Wall street papers an advertive- ment sigced H. 0. G. KE. Q. T., advorusing for sale a sits toc a hotel here. It some capitalist would invest $100,000 and set up a good hotel ners, he would find the investment a paying one, and Lake Mahopac might easily be mace far more attractive than Newport, Sara- toga, or any other watering place on this size of the Atlantic. Baldwin's Hotel is now op-n. Baldwin has a most re- marsable ics bouse, in which he is able to keep his meata, vegetables and poultry very much loager than usual, There are great stories told aboat this ice house, but | can testify that bis roast ceet and beef steaks tender, juicy and far more agreeable to the palste than the greatest achievements in tue cuisine of the splendid three dollars a day botels in New York. ‘Then nis cream is real cream—there’s no sham about it—no Barnum in Balawia, A cup of his coffee with nis cream is the most capital break{ast, and it would make a Frenchman for- swear Paris. In this mountainous region, as I have said before, we find the springs and sources from which the Croton is supplied; but if you want to taste tne Crotoa in its purity you must go up to the Switzerland of America— Putnem county—and driok it from the springs about Lake Mehopac. It seems remarzable that 4 region with such fine facilities for bealthfal enjoyment, should be 40 little known until within the last few years. In New York city we are tormented with intensely hot weather in on@ season, and bitterly cold easteriy winds and sea fogs in another; while we have, within two and a balf hours’ ride of the metropolis, # delicious moua- tain region with sn equable climate, pure air, plenty of water, and the most enchanting scenery that ever de- lighted the eye of a tourist. { understand that there is no doctor here.

Thompson and Others.—This was an appeal from the de- cree of the Surrogate, in the matter of proving the last will and testament of Abrabam G. Thompson, who died jn New York on the 29th of October, 1851. The appel- lants, by their counsel, Messrs. Fullerton and Newman, contend that the paper offered for probate is mot the will of the decedent. It is in an inchoate state, in the absence of the schedule referred to in the body of the will, and which was to have been signed and attached thereto as a part of the instrument. The appellants, who are the grandchildren and sole heirs at jaw and next of kin vo the deceased, allege that he died possessed of large real and parsonal estate, each amounting to more than one hundred thousand dollars, The estate now amounts to nearly four hundred thousand dollars. ‘ne will is dated October 27, 1861, two days before his death, and in it he bequeaths to his grandson the sum of $15,00, in trust for his use when he aball become of and to his granddaughter and her motner the sum of $100 each, at the same time stating that he limits this amount because they received a large property under ths will of his ceceased son. Other , amounting t» about $15,000 more, were left to various relatives friends and servants, and the residue o: his property wa: divided among ten religious and charitable socienes in various proportiuns. ‘The appellants insist that the wil is an invalic instrument, because the testator was sub ject to an undue influence at the time of its execution. ‘Ybis influence, they allege, was exerted by Mrs Fila Hunt, the housekeeper and nurse of the deceased, who was hostile to his grandchildren, and im; upon hi; mina that all they wanted was his money. They turthec allege that he was lal g under delusions, amounting to insanity, at the time of the executing of the will, and contend that if trere is any real doubt as to the testa- mentary capacity of a testator, it is proper to reverse the Cecision cf the Surrogate, for the purpose of having the question cf fact settled by the verdict ofa jury. Io support of these allegations, a vast amount of testi- mony, taken at the neariag before the Surrogate, is embodied im the printed case, which goes to show that througbout a great portion of nis life, aad par- tisularly toward the time of his death, he was pos- sessed by various strange delusions, indicative of an impaired and weakened mind. Thus he was a believer im the possibility of discovering the philosopher's stone, which wss to reveal to its possesior the cecrets and treasures of the whole earth; and he owned @ hoase ia Brooklyn which he set apart exclusively for s laboratory, in which to compound the ingrodieats of which this stone was to be composed. He had told one witness that he had @ house set apart and a man consesrated for this work, everything connected with which was to be consecrated; and that the rooms were carpeted and hned wita Irish linen, He kept wax candles buraing there for forty Gays and nights, because Moses had beea io the mountain forty days, and our Saviour had fasted during that space of time.” The man whom he had con- secreted and set apart to raise spirits and procure the philosopher's stone, and for other purposes, must not tat while the sun was up. He couti only eat before suorise and after sunset, and then must eat only un- leavened bread and Boston crackers. He mighteat some kinds of fruit, but no meat or butter, and whatever he ate must be consscrated. Perfumes were kept buraing in the room, and the man was dressed in white Irisn linen. His object, he said, was not merely to obtain the philosophei’s stone, but also to cull in the planetary spirite, whem he could command, and who would ony ‘whatever commands he might give them. The philosopher’s stone would cure all diseases, prolong life to any age, transmute metals into goli; when teeth bad been Jost through old age, a littie of if put in the gums would be abie to bring ous new teetn, With it he would be able to see into futurity, or any- where else; could possibly go to the planets, ana expect- ed co live to the age of a thousand yea) He was also interested in the manufacture of needles which should point out where hidden treasures were lying, and had ‘once, as he wiormed one witness, made an expedition to Montauk Peint with an old man who hadarod which would attract tothe money. On an another occasion he had sold a fine pair of horses recently purchased, ‘at an enormous sacrifise, because his housekeeper, Mrs Hunt, had dreamed that such # pair had run away with hom, and because, as he observed, she always dreamed right. Further evidence of a similar natare w. ed on the part of the sppellan' insisted, showed a desire on nd- children the bulk of his property, from which he hi been cissuaded by the influence and representations of otters, when his mind was in @ weakened state. He fre- quent!y complained of pains in his head, which h ceived a severe hurt in bis early life. The rspon offered a very considerable body of evidence from friends and busiress associates ot the testator, which went to show that, though an eccentric msn, he was always considered perfectly sane. ‘ibe cace is still on. Unitea states Circuit court. APPEAL IN ADMIRALTY. May 28 —John Jones and Others vs Cargo, dc , of the Ship Richmond, Post & Sherry, and N. & G. Howell, Claimonts —Nelson, J.—This libel was filed in the Court below to recover the value or proceeds of several hun- dred barrels of whale and sperm oil, and « large quan- tity of whalebone. The sbip Richmond, a whaling ves- tel from Cold Spring, Long Island, engaged in the whale fisheries in the North Pacific ocean, among other Ams- rican vessels, in the summer of 1849, in the pureuit of whales, penetrated Bebring’s Straits, and passed into the Arctic seas; and after being nearly filled, having be- tween three and four thousand barrels of oil on board, anda corresponding quantity of bone, and about pre- paring to return home, she rau, ina dease fog, upon a reef ot rocks upon the Asiatic coast, from which the hands were unable to extricate ber, and where she bilgec, ava became fast to the rocks "The officers and crew fied to the shore in she boats, carrying with them the necessary provisions and means of shelter. The coast was unit habited except by savages, but who were friencly, amd arsisted them in their distress The sbip was abandcned as a wreck, aad the crew re- mained, waiting only for an opportunity to be taken off the coast by some of the whaling ves- sels that were sti/l engaged ia taking whales in the Straits, This was on the second of Adgu.t, 1549. The first verse that appeared in sight was tne Bliza- betn Frith, of Ssg Harbor, belongiog to Post and Sherry and otber claimants im this case. Another was the Panama, of the same place, belonging to N. & G. Howell and others, also claimants, and a taird the Junior. The captain of the Richmond propred to the masters of these versels to complete their cargo at once with the oil and Lone out of his veesel, which was still lying upon the rocks, so that they might start immediately on their heme voyage, and take wish them hiscrew. This was objected to by the master of the Klizabeth Frith sug- gesting at the same time, that the captain had no right ay the oil; and proposed that the oil and bone put up for sale at auction, and be strack off to the highest bidders, This was to by the cap- tain, and notices of the sale were posted in the several ships accordingly for the next dey. it was arcanged between the three masters, of the slizabeth Frith, the oa and the Junior, previous to the sals, that ter of the Frith should bave the first pid upom oil atone dollar per barre), for such quantity necesssry to till bis ship; and the other two shou! bid seventy-five cents per barrel for sach quantity os they might require to fill their ships. The captain of the Richmond had agreed that a purchase of the oil should include « corresponding proportion of whalebone, which proportion appears to be well understood among those evgaged 1 the whale fishery. On the dey of sale the master of the Ehzabetn Frith bid one dollar per berr nd took out of the ship some 600 barrels of with it about 6,000 pounds of whalebone, and the master of the Panama bid 75 cents per barrel, took out about the same quantity of oil and some 3,000 pounds of bone, Tce precise quantity of either is ‘not very clear from the evidence. The master of the Junior bia iS cents p-r barrel, and took about 1,000 barrels of oil, the quanuty of whalebone not stated, nor is it ma- terial, as thie portion of the oil and bone is not in con- troversy in this suit. The 1,200 barrels of oil and 9,000 pouncs of whalebone in controversy here—if that isthe quantity receved by the s. Frith and brought at the sale the eum of $1,200. It is ed by the libellants th: rite arrival in the maraet of New York the vaine exceeded $20,000. The principal ques- tion arising cut of the above facts is, whether or not the sale by tue master, unier the circumstances stated, passed a valid title in the property to the purhasers ? if it dia not, then the title remains in the original own- ers, subject toa lien for a proper compensation by way of talvage to the respondents for services readered in saving the propery. The late Jucge Jadson, before whom the care was neard in the District Coart, held the sale to be valid, ond decreed in favor of the respondents. ‘The power of the matter to sell the cargo ander the circumstances of the impending peril, 18 not to be doubt ed. The ship was liable, upon the happening of the first storm, to go to pieces upon the rocke, and the cargo to the bottom of the sea. Bat then, in orser to juastiry 8 rate, even in case of a veenel ia distress, there must be tome market in whch the articles may be sold—some place where there is a demand for them, and where there 8 at least some reasonavls chance for competition among tbe purchasers, A sale upon a desolate coast, where there is no market and mo demand, except that of the aslvor present, would be, in effect, but dxing be tween bim and the master the amount of salvage. It wourd tea sele altogether at the mercy of toe pur- ebaser, lt may be said that even the em ll amount ob. tained cpon the swe in this case by the master, is bet- ter for the interest of the owner than to have aban- Coned the property altogether in its then cesperate con- dition, But thrs argument would go to justify a sale to the salvor in every instance of property in an impending Nous cowcition. The law wisely forbids these con- tracts, deeming the rights of the owner and the genera interests of commerce better promoted by requiring the 1 to trust for compensation to salvage ser lowed by the court, This mode of compea- tioa bas been found fo farnisha rullicient encourage. eut for making all proper and reasonable exertions and crifices to save the property, whue at the sare tims it guaids the owner against any undue ad ing taken of its necessitous condition clined to think, as at pre: by the master of cargo confersedly, in a case of extreme neci fied, must pave teen made ata place ¢ market, or demand for the article, or, at loast, Jer circamstances where there was competition in the purchase, Without 1 it seems to me to be better to le ail, by the exertions of the may and men of the ves- rel, or by the sale, or for salvage compensation, A without a market, and without bidders in the sen auction rales, if it’could be made at all, would, of neoss- nity, be im most cases a matter of form—th» price do. pending upon the will of the purchaser—and practically, very little if anything different from a eaie to toe aatvar himeelt, Gut, independently of the general view of the question, ¢ fatinfied that this ale upon its own cireymstagces, cXonot be upheld.

Decree below ré-reversed. Superior Court. Before Hon. judge Bosworth. May 29,—Emery Matthews vs. Moses S, Beach & Alfred E, Beach,—This case, an action against the proprietors of the Sun newspaper, was tried once before, when a verdict was rendered for the plaintiff for $500, for an al- leged libel on an emigrant runner. On appeal, a new trial was granted, and a second suit also commenced against the Sun for comments upon the first trial. The alleged libel was published in that paper on the 27th of June, 185¢, and charged “the two emigrant runners, named Adams and Matthews, with having knocked down a respectable man named Peter N. Horsley, in Broadway, and Cie maltreated him. The quarrel it is repre- sented, originated by Mr. Horsley asking the fellows to refund mosey that bad been paid to them by some of his friends for worthless steamboat tickets. The complain. ant appeared betore Justice Lathrop, at the Tombs, and stated the circumstances; but the Justice refused to is- sues warrant. Proceedings were then entered into be- sae the Mayor, and means taken to bring the offenders justice, rhe defendants deny the cause of action. [hey deny that by the publication of the alleged libel they intend ed to wrong or injure tke plaintifl; they state that the article was published as a report of’ the proceedings bo- fore Justice Lathrop, and that the as 1k was re sented to the defendants as having committed on him by Adams and Matthews. Mr. James T. Brady ap- peared for the Messrs, Beach, defence on the pre. tent trial is justification. The case stands adjourned. Marine Court. Before Hon. Judge McCarthy. PARTNERSHIP LIABILITY. Renard and others vs. Geo. P. Lord and others.—This wi action on @ promissory mote made by Lord & Browy, and tried a few days since before the Court without a jury. The frm of Lord & Brown was formed uncer the act of limited partnership, and Abel B, Matks contributed $20,000 as a special partner. On the lat of January, 1850, the firm commenced, and was to continue five years. lt appeared that up tothe 14th august, 1864, one of the defendants, Mr. Marks, received from the hrm of Lord & Brown $18,00¢, interest an2 proits, and Le immediately, on the same day, sod out ail his in- terest in the concern to Lord & Brown, for $11,000, for which they gave bim their notes at different periods, va- rying from six to twenty-four months. Tue nove for which the plaintiffs now sue was made by the firm dur- ing the existence of the limited partoership. In No- vember last it was alleged that Lord & Brown failed, and Mr. C. Bainbridge Ewith, on the part of the plaintitls, contenced thas the sale by Marks to Lord & Brown, wasa change in the fname of the cozcern, and an alteration of the capital and @ares mentioned in the original cer- tifcate formmng the ¢riginal partnership, and in violation of the statute which rendered the spectal partner lable as & general parrner. ‘The Court, in rendering its decision, held the defend- ants to be general partners, and gave judgment agaiast all the cefendants for the full amount ot the note aad interest, $235. It is sa a that the dectsion in this action invoives the defendant Marks in suits of a like character to the amount of over $75,000.

With reference to the Prussian closed mail, we are de- siredto remark, also, that in many instances letters which should come mail, particularly from the southern part of Germany, are received in the open mail generally via France, thus rendering them subjec to additional and much higher rates of postage; andi is suggested that writers would aid grestiy toward correcting this irregularity by requesting their corres- pondents in Germany to inform themsely correct rates of postage, and to mark their | ally to be forwarded tm the “Prussian closed mi Ostend and London.”’ It should also be observed that a prepayment in either country of less than the combined rate of 30 cents on single letter goes for nothing, no account being taken of partial prepayments. ‘urkey Naval Intelligence.
