SING SING, June 29, 1872. Twas sitting on two chairs, smoking cigar, on the stoop of the Phoenix Hotel, on one of the morn- 4ngs of this week, when the thermometer was bub- bling among the nineties, and congratulating my- welf that I was in the shade, handy to a “bar,” and that I had a soft place for my feet, when, glancing @way from the silvery sheen of the noble Hud- on to the railroad depot, I saw a lithe young Sgure, attired in a new suit of male clothing and a pair of new boots, step from the shadows of the depot buildings into the dusty road. The sun ‘Was in its meridian splendor. In a moment the figure was out of the fierce glitter and under the shadow of the awning, which protected lazy loungers like myself from sunstroke. X had scarcely taken my legs from a ‘vacant chair when I saw before me a young man, im the flush of manhood, of attractive personal ap- pearance, and of manly figure. I made the obvious remark, by way of introduction, that the weather was very warm, and, in a deferential, courteous man- ner, he agreed with me that it was. Iknew very ‘well where he had come from that morning, and I ‘was casting about mentally for a mode by which I ould make him conscious of that knowledge on my part without offending his susceptibilitics. The bright and happy thought of “a drink” occurred to me, and I invited the young stranger to join me. ‘He drank sherry and I drank claret. I noticed that he poured his sherry into the glass with as much formality and steadiness as a duke’s butler. We had emptied our glasses and Ihad told the bar- , tender to fill them again before I had quite decided as to the mode in which I should refer to the bar- ainister in the record of his young life, when he relieved me from any further speculations in that rection, and somewhat startied me by addressing ‘me in this remarkable phraseology :—“I've seen you about the prison, have I not ?” Giad as I was that the ice of restraint wag broken, I was not quite prepared for such a cold Plunge as this, and sv I fenced with the reply, and I ‘eald :— “Sing Sing Prison do you mean !" “Yes,” he answered, ‘the prison down here,” pointing with his finger along the railroad track. Tat once replied, with a great show of candor, that I was there about this time last year, and that I went through the prison several times, “You were there with a party of ladies, I remem- ber.” Astonished at the accuracy of his memory, and | Bis power for the remembrance of faces, I said that I had accompanied a party of Jadies through both the female and male prisons. “I remembered your face again very well, and ‘was certain it was you the moment | saw you.” Despite his communicativeness and his apparent @andor he had not yet told me whether he was a | convict or a prison oMcial, and I was very much afraid I siiould be obliged to ask him in which @apacity I had had the honor of making his ac- | quaintance. Before I did this I complimented him on his faculty for recognition, and I had not finished my sentence when he said, “1 was quite innocont of the charge I was there for.” Greatly pleased at this unexpected relief, I asked him if he would “take a smoke,” and put before ‘him the box of cigars. He respectfully but firmly | declined to smoke; and, ‘ighting another cigar my- self, we went to the stoop, and, taking each a chair, ot into the shade and into a talk. I noticed throughout our previous talk that his prison man- | ners and the restraint of the convict Ife were stiil | offered him $10 for two years’ work on the books, NEW YURK HERALD, MONDAY, JULY 1, 1872—WITH SUPPLEMENT, convicts don’t care very much about doing much overwork.”” ie their ‘stint’ much of a day’s work,’ I asked Mr. wn Bro “No; it is just Lie as much a9 any man would do in about half don’t think the contract system a good o ¢ men don’t care about spoll- a good outside trade, Ferty cents a day aint ‘much for a contractor to pay, ‘and this prison wor! don’t do any good to the honest mechanic. thin the convicts ought to have #omething to do; but I think it slrouid be public work.

I was anxious to Fesponiieay Gortalaty, ‘with great” pleasure." respon: D wi grea’ . Whether if was that Mr. Brown was anxlous about the train, o¢ whether it was mere jorgetfuiness, I shall never be able to determine, but certain it was that the pocketbook was not produced ; and as Mr. Brown told me he was going On to New York, T bid him “Good bye and success in life,” and added, “Take care of the $500.” His last words were, “Oh, that’s all right.” MR. BROWN'S STORY TESTED. In the cool of the evening ! sauntered down to the prison. In the private oMce I found Warden Nelson—rubicund, jolly, -natured, frank, open face, andasfree from wrinkles as th dull care had never found resting ae upon that placid brow, After a short (di ta'k I said, “ You discharged ® man named Brown this morning, Warden, did you not Mr. Nelson replied that a man of that name had been discharged that morning. “Don't you think it rather rough, Warden, employ & man for two years keeping the books of a large concern like the shoe shop, and when he goes away offer him $10 a8 a rewal r his industry ?”” “1 don’t know about the $10, that’s the agent's business; but I'll see.’ The Warden here run; desk bell, and sent a messenger, in stripes, to prison. “That man Brown is a convict. He is sent ere to do hard labor. He was not put to hard labor. He goes into the shoe shop to work on the contract. ey set him to keep the books—per- haps the best occupation that man could be given. The contractor pays the State forty cents a day for his labor. Now, there are plenty of convicts who would give four or five hundred dollars to go on con- tract work. Itis not poate they are not com- pelled to be marched along in jes from the yarda to the quarries or to any other outside work; and this the convicts think very degrading. The rule of the prison 1s that men shall work from ‘bell to bell,’ but the men working in the contract may get through by eleven o'clock, and the rest of the day is for themselves, They have other privileges, which a man in Brown's position would always 6b- tain. For instance, if the officers of the shoe shop had more lunch or supper than they wanted, Brown would join them, and be would not always have prison fare, though I don’t know that that fare is 6o bad.” WHAT NEHEMIAT SAID. The Warden was interrupted in his conversation the entrance of a gentieman who did not wear “the stripes,’ but who wore over a black cloth coat and vesta long linen duster, and on his head 4 stope-pipe hat. His nose and eyes were the only part of his face that was not overflowing with lux- uriant hair. His nose was hooked, his eye was piercing and restless, and his manner phlegmatic, 28 though he was always getting better, and never getting well, from an attack of asthma and laziness combined, He cast along look at the Warden and myself, and then dropped into an easy chair in the corner; but before he finally dropped into his seat he put two bony fingers lazily out and dragged a newspaper by the corners down with him. He re- clined so firmly on the back of the chair, crossed his legs so persistently, and looked so steadily at the title of the paper, that it seemed as though he were going to read that morning’s HeraLp right through, triple sheet and all. “Did you discha! Brown this morning, Nehe- miah?” said the Warden to the man in the tall hat. “I did,” answered Nehemiah, not taking his eyes off the paper. “Offer him $10 when he lest!” “Not a cent,’ still absorbed in the HeraLp. “Why he told this gentleman here that you and that he told you to keep tt.” “He told him’ a darned lie then.” Nehemiah spread the H“RaLp over his knees and then turned his eyes round to the Warden said, “I tell you what he did, He had got no underclothing and he asked us to give him some, and we gave him two suits, and glad enough he seemed to get it. What should we give him $10 for? He only worked about a hour a day anyhow, and we paid the State forty cents a day for what he did. He had an easy place of it and good living. What more did he want? Ten doilars, He wouldn't have refused $10, I guess,”’ “But,” turning to the Warden, 1 said, “Brown had quite an amount to receive when he was dis- charged, and that, perhaps, accounts for it ?”” “Quite an amount!’ said the Warden, with un- affected surprise. “Yes, $500 he told me.” ‘The Warden touched the bell again. The gentle- tleman in stripes came in; he received certain directions and speedily returned with books and papers. ‘There, sir,” said the Warden, handing me asiip of paper, “is the receipt for the amount he received.” There was Mr. Brown's signature for #4 98. This was the amount that his friends who were “so well connected,” and who “lived ju Brad- ford, England,” had thought it worth while to trust him with, and so deeply inlaid was the habit of lying in this otherwise decent young man, that for no earthly purpose whatever, except for the grati- fication of a morbid vanity, had he rgmaneed to me about his drafts from Enziand and his $500, THE PRISON KEBPER'S STORY. On my return to the hotel I found a group of loungers on the stoop. My host whispered in my ear that the tall man with the blouse was a retired Sing Sing prison keeper. I joined in the general conversation, and shortly afterwards the ex-keeper and I found ourselves in front of the bar. After he had drank a “whiskey straight” we returned to the stoop, and I was successful before I had got my upon him. Freedom was a new emotion to him, and, like his new suit of clothes, did not yet sit easily. When he took the eat to sit beside me | he took it with an affectation of ease and samiliar- | ity that was a long ope from the manner of a man who was free to go and free to choose. | “You were discharged, this morning, I pre- | sume 7” | BROWN, THE ENGLISHMAN'S, STORY. | “I was there under the name of Brown,” he re- | . “That's not my right name.

Sir Henry Rawlinson Hauled Over the Coals by Charles Beke—Regarding the River Rua—The Waters of Lake Tan- ganyika—The Herald Correspondent’s Meeting with Livingsto: at Usiji— Stanley in Advance of the Great Tra- veller Hurrying on to the Coast. Beke, the African explorer, in a@ letter to the London Times of the 20th, criticises Sir Henry Rawlinson’s views regarding some of the African rivers and lakes visited by Dr. Livingstone, and also refers to the movements of the great traveller and Mr. Stanley, the HERALD correspondent, as fol- lows :— The intelligence telegraphed from Pombey re- specting out long-mising traveller, Dr. its stone, {8 80 scanty and so ambiguous, that it only natural it should be open to various constructions. The interpretation given to it by Sir Henry Rawlinson in your columns ac ee ee 0 small de; no si Br a hension. Sir Henry identifies Rua, w! ous underground <ilage, ig gaid to be, with the Ruaha, lying in a line between Unyanyembe and Lake Nyassa, and consequently to the east of Tan- ganyika. There ought, however, to be no question as to the tact that Kua lies altogether to west of Tanganyika. In the Athenwum of the 9th of April, 1870, Culone! Grant identified it with “the ter- stony of Uruwa, mn in tain Speke’s ag about one hundred miles to the west of the centre of Tangan- Pere and in an article which is about to appear the same journal on Satarday next, the 15th instant, | have spoken of Rua as being in about seven degrees south latitude and twenty-elght degrees east longitude, between the two lakes, Moera and Ulenge, as itis laid down in Mr. Keith Johnston's map of the lake region of Eastern Africa. The announcement that the River Rusigi flows into, and not out of, the north end of Keaton and that consequently that lake is not connecte with the Nile, does not surprise me. Such was Captain Burton’s original report (see Journal Royat Geographical Society, XXIX., 254); and although he and most geographers subsequently modified their views on the subject Dr. Petermann has always contended for the correctness of that report. Even after Dr. Livingstone himself had expressed the opinion that ‘Tanganyika and Nyige Chowambe (taker's?) are one water,” that geographer de- clared “he would not allow such evidence (as Bur- ton's) to be invalidated by a simple remark (of Liv- ingstone’s), Which perhaps was meant quite hypo- thetically.”” (See Athenwum of June 11, 1870.) Lake Tanganyika thus appearing to be shut off from the Nile, Sir Henry Rawlinson contends that “as the waters of ‘tne lake are perfectly sweet, it is certain that there must be an outflow from its basin, as wellas an inflow; and as this outflow does not exist on its western side, it must be sought for on the eastern side ot the lake.” Accordingly, he considers Tanganyika as being connected, ‘‘pro- bably near its southern extremity,” with “the River Lufiji, discharging itself into the Indian Ocean in about elght degrees south.” But, I would ask, is it then certain that Tangan- yika has such am outflow? Captain Burton's de- scription of its water has always struck me as mill- tating if not absolutely against its connection with the ile, at all events against its beimg the main channel of that or any other running stream. His words are (The Lake Regions of Centra! Africa, I, | 139, 140:— The water of the Tanganyika appears deliclously sweet re, after the saltand bitter, the putrid and slimy 10 Of the wells, pits and pools on the line of march. ‘he people, however, who driuk it willingly when atloat, refer, when on shore, the little springs which bubble irom its banks. They complain that it does not satis! thirst, and contrast it unsavorably with the waters of I rival’the Nyanza. It appears, moreover, to corrode metal and lexther with exceptional power. Surely this cannot be the living water of a large phic stYeam constantly changing, which it would be were it (as Sir Henry Rawlinson assumes it to be) the recipient of “the Cazembe waters which Livingstone had heard of from twelve de- rees south,’ and of which the traveller himself declared “the volume of water which flows north from latitude twelve degrees south, is so large that I suppose I have been working at the sources of the Congo as well as of the Nile.” ‘ Rather must we be content to accept Tanganyika as a still lake, receiving only the waters of Living- stone's “eastern line of drainage,” namely, that of the small southern lake Liemba. On the other hand, we must, with Livingstone himself, regard his “central and western lines of drainage’—that is to say, not only the rivers Chambeze and Lufira, but likewise (as i contend) the great river Kassavi, which rises between 11.30 Le eg and 12 degrees south latitude, and in about 18 or 19 degrees east longitude, faraway to the southwest, and within 800 miles of the Atlantic Ocean, and which I believe to be the true Nile—as ‘converging into an un- visited lake west of Ujiji, the outflow of which, whether to Congo or Nile,” he said, before leaving ee I “T have to ascertain; this un- visited lake Say, Ulenge, close to Rua, towards the north. As this subject is discussed by me at some length in the columns of the Athenaum of this week, it would be out of pines to repeat the details here, I will, therefore, briefly express my notion of Dr, Livingstone’s movements after his departure from the distant country of Manyema, where we know him to have remained for a long period. Having explored Ulenge, and so “settled the Nile ques- tion,’’ he could not leave the neighborhooa without visiting the marvellous underground MCU we there; and then he returned from Rua to Ujiji by the north- end of Tanganyika, and so ascertained that the river Rusigi flows into and not out of that lake. At Ujiji Livingstone was welcomed by mr. Stanley, who had already heard from him while still in the regions west ii pe a, and who had apparently for- warded to him from that place some of the supplies whioh had long been lying there awaliing his ar- rival; and then the two proceeded together to Uny- anyembe on their way to Zanzibar. ‘he statement in the telegram from Sir Phill Wodehouse that, “having obtained stores” at iia Livingstone “returned to Unyanyembe,” though literally true, is most misleading. From Unyan- yembe Stanley hurried forward alone with de- leaving him to follow with all convenient speed; and when the former was heard from he had already reached Ugogi, more than half way between Kazeh in Unyanyembe and the coast. As regards the great traveller himself, we may now calculate on soon receiving the joyful intelli- gece of his safe arrival at Zanzibar; for, after all e has undergone and accomplished, and especially when he had learnt from Mr. Stanley the intense anxiety felt throughout the civilized world on his account, it is hardly probable that he would diverge one step from the direct road to his native country and to his expectant friends and admirers.

Tn the case of John Miller, the unfortunate man who was run over by a train on the New Jersey Railroad, at the Market street depot, in Newark, on Friday night, and was frightfully mangled, so that he died, an inquest was held yesterday at the Court House in Newark by Coroner Munn. After re all the evidence in the case the jury ren- ere A VERDICT as follows:—That the main cause of the accident was the result of the inattention or confusion of the said John Miller; also, that there was a want of due diligence on the part of the engineer and fireman of said train, inasmuch as they were giving their attention to less important duties, to the neg- lect of keeping a proper watch of crossin pedestrians; and further, that the Pennayl- | lroad Company has failed to afford proper protection to citizens crossing at that | point, inasmuch as they have but one flagman to ‘ive warning to protect citizens in the confusion of he frequent incoming and outgoing trains at the same time, and this jury are unanimous in the opinion that the public safety requires that there should be more fagmen at this point, so that one at least may be placed on either side of the rallroad | track; and that a copy of said verdict be trans. mitted to the oMce of said Pennsylvania Railroad Company—New Jersey Railroad division. A “PRESENTMENT’ ALSO, The jury alco made a “presentment” addressed | to the Mayor and Common Council, “earnestly and | respectiuily calling your honorable body to the dangerous and exposed condition of said crossiny (the Market street), as evidenced by frequent fatal accidents and numerous narrow escapes from such accidents, whereby the lives of our citizens are constantly endangered.
