iroiu Holland, who came to. New York a bout
two hundred and fifty jcars ago: this was

her by PKin William ot Holland-gin. About
The tear 103. Ev. Bogardus, a young clergy
man a graduate of ColHmbia College, who
boarded at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, preached
Iu the Tabernacle, and lunched at Crook &
Dufl's became enamored ot Anneke, Bnd otlered
ber his hand, which she accepted, after a brief
consultation with her father-in-law, familiarly
called "Old Jans of Fulton Market" Bogardus,
who previous to the marriage had pretty much
"gone to grass," was uow "in clover," and
was supplied by Anneke with the wherewith to
pay bis tailor's and sundry other little bills,
including his dues at the German Club, and
lor lack of which he had been "po.-ted" and
threatened with expulsion.
Bogardtis also descended from King William,
a- did also his brother Stephen Bogardus, who
used himself up in Harlem stock. These
brothers were ot "even tenor and date;"' in other
words, were of the same aire. They, however,
were not twins, although brothers, "and both
boys,' they were "right? and lefts," and could
not readtiy tiace their descent to King William.
There appeared to be "a break" somewhere
probably at Bunnell's Basin, aud they could
not get around it. Anneke Weboer was Anneke
Jans' grandmother, and was also descended Irom
King Will'iim, as appeared from "a strawberry
mm k on her arm." she was much older than
Anneke Jans, and of different build. She had a
stoop in her shoulders, and a plantegrade walk,
where she spent much ot her time. She was
near-sighted, and fond of eleven o'clock lunches
of rye and croton.
Annexe Jans was possessed of much "stamps;"
and these she had invested in land lying along
the west side of Broadway ("contagious" to the
Astor House, which was the tippest of the up
town hotels at that early day ), and just out of
reach ot the omnibus drivers, who were also de
scended irom King William of Holland. In
the couise oi a lew years, more or less, the
land increased muchly in value, and the heir9
of Trinity Church leased a portion of it, which
they now claim as their own; but which the
heirs of Anneke Jans, so far as heard from, dis
pute the claim, and "join issue" instead ol join
ing the church, which they should do. In the
year 1647 Anneke Bogardus (nee Jans) took
down her wateriall aud blept with her lathers,
who were also descendants of King William of
Holland. Anneke lett property which had been
constantly increasing in value until it is sup
posed to have reached at this time the enor
mous sum of twenty or Ulty millions but
"comiueniators differ" as to whether twenty or
titty millions is so many dollars, or only in
tended to represent the number ot heirs claiming
to share the property and who are also de
scended from Kin? William of Holland. A pro
position has been made to dispose of this vast
ageregation of properly on the "Gilt Concert''
plan. Something of the kind will have to be
done at once in order to forestall the Board of
Aldermen, who are also descended from King
William of Holland, and who urc supposed to
be moving to add the estate to the "Contingent
Fund," which otherwise is liable to be over
drawn, on account ot the enormous prices now
demanded for municipal suppers at Delmonico's
and other brst-class jestatuaLts.
It is reported, also, that the railroad com
pany, which Is also descended from King Wil
liam of Holland, is covertly making arrange
menis to lay a double tract, about lour o'clock
on Christmas morninpr, ttiroub the tint ire pro
perty. To pi event this some of Auneke's heirs
have made propositions to Vanderuilt to run
the Hudson Rr'er cars into it, and issue con
vertible bonds to all the unconvertible heirs.
What (he end of all this will be it is difficult
to foresee. A great many babies are now being
christened Anneke Jans and Evardus bogardus,
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, who is
also descended trom King William ot Holland,
having recently decided that this is not an in
fringement of the spirit of the law, nor in viola
lion ot auy of its amendments, and further, that
a stamp is not required to make the ceremony
lceal. A number ot enterprising young men
are advertising lor situations as hens, with a
specimen of which we conclude the present
s.rticlc:
WANTUD.
The subscriber, a sinale man, of good fa mil v
and respectable connections, a Protcsiant, of tine
pcTson.il appearance, and constitutionally op
posed to earning Uis bread by "the sweat of his
brow," is desirous of obtaining a situation as
one of the heirs ot Anneke Jans, dpceused, and
who was descended irom King William ol Hol
land. "No objection to going into the country,''
or elsewhere (except to Butlalo), provided there
are "9amps" in it. if desired, would keep
books, or any other property eutrusted to his
care. Is not particular whether the exact
amount of "spelter" is twenty or fifty millions.

William the Conqueror as a Renefnctor
to KiiKland.
Hev. S. Predeaux Tregelles, an English
scholar, has been making an extended tour of
exploration in Britanny aud Normandy, among
the descendants of the ancient British emi
grants who went to Frauce in the sixth and
seventh centuries. In his travels he came to
Fa!aie, noted as the birthplace of William the
Conqueror. His descriptions and remarks are
curious:
"Between the castle and the town William's
equestrian ptatue has been erected, and on the
other fcido of the castle I was shown the tan
pits of his mother's father; this was accompa
nied by the remark that 1 might see that the
business was still carried on, 'though not in the
i-auie taniily !' Since the Saxon inva
sion, no individual has so influenced the whole
course of English history asWilliiim; probably,
at the time, be was the greatest benefactor of
England. This will sound strange to some; but,
let it be remembered, that tue whole framework
of Saxon society had become utterly corrupt
and degenerate for a century. The nobles and
rich men were sunk iu deoauchery aud sloth;
cruelty and oppression were rite; and, however
much Saxons may have suffered under Norman
rule, it was but a part of what they had been
accustomed to impose on their own tiibordinates
whom they held in bondage.
"The benefits conferred by William on the
social condition of the English were immense.
He laid the foundations of personal freedom in
his enactment: 'It auy slave remain without
being claimed lor a year and a day in our cities,
or mugs, or cabiies, irom that day he becomes
free, aud let him be free lor ever from the yoke
ot srvltude.' What Saxon king or what con
temporary of William dreamed of doing so much
for the removal of slavery f So, too, did he abso
lutely prohibit the exportation of slaves. ,'Let
him beware (he says to the slave-dealer) that
he destroys not a soul whom God has redeemed
with His blood ' Thus the Norman. ponquost
led to the formation of a large free population,
Blrbnalv attached to the Norruau Institutions, by
Which they had so much profited; while the
. Saxons, who could uo Jpijger hold their bond-
. iiien,. but saw them ecdawed with every privU
lege of liberty, and made.their equals, '.regarded
all kuch measures of right and equity as injus
tice to thembeives. ,Suck. wero sonie of the
benefits resulting frooa the day of Hastings'.
. England need feel no ohame or 'regret at the
Norman character hn prated o so (uay U' L-r'
.'institutions.'' ' "

The dath ot Mr. Isnider, inventor I (lie
Smiier gun, wa recently j announced. An Enc
Hob paper gives the loliowing econnt of the
treatment ho received b 1'iiflaii l;- (
"So far back as lb59, Mr. Smdor, it appears,
presented the S'orm system of breech-loading
to the English Government, and wa called on
to convert to Enilel Is upon that plan. Sub
cequcntl.v, it was suggested that the ammuni
tion sboiiW b mmte tip wiib Govarument pow
der and bullet; and. Mr. Holder having applied
lor and receitert these articles, the trials duly
proceeded bclore the Ordmnce Committee. A
demand as tb n made upon bim lor the uu
ot 1 Is. 2l. for the malarial thus tarnished,
and it is affirmed that the (.overnmeiit actually
sued bim aiidEobtained Indmeut against him tor
that au.ount. At Ibat time hia experiments
occupied about eighteen months. Eatly in 1801
he went to the Continent to pursue his re
searches Into the best system of breeeh-loiding.
In 1H63 be retnnied to Englnnd. and tlrst ex
h bited a model of a run ivhich formed the basis
ot his present Invention. He was assured that
the Government wonld never consent to look at
a stsiem of breeeh-loadiug carrying its own
ignition, bnt the sclentitic persons having the
subject in charge zealously met his views, anil
alter eight years of labor and heavy expendi
ture, he bad the satisfaction to see his system
practically successful and adopted by the State.
But the further pecuniary and painful part of
the history U described to he as lollows: lu
June last ho addressed Lord Hartington, the
then Secretary ol War, saying he (thought the
tin.e had now come when be should beinforraed
how he was to be dealt with. The reply Was
that his cla'm must be considered under three
head:- First, reimbursement for expenses; two,
compensation lor service while employed in
the departmi nt ; and, three, reward tor the in
vention; and it was nddn th'it the first two
points could be speedily settled without waring
lor the third. Mr. Snider named X2700 as d ue
to him lor expenditure and services, whereupon
he was notitled that the matter had been left
entirely in the hands of Mr. Clodo, the Govern
ment .solicitor tor War, and that his decision
wa to give iionoand no more. Harassed by
creditors for debts incurred during his long and
costly proceedings, and at tho ame time help
less from sickness, and being told that if he did
not accept what was offered and give an acquit
tance in full, be would set nothing, Mr. Snider,
about a lortnlght back, consented, by the ad
vice of his friends, to take the amount, the
whole of wliicu went, immediately to his credi
tors, not one farthing finding its way to his own
hands.
''ibe only mitigation of the storv is that it is
understood he has been informed that when he
shall be well enough to present himself at the
War Oflicc, ihe matter will be reconsidered and
a more citing allowance made. Such are the
facts as they have been conveyed in answer to
inquiries; but there may be some minor inac
curacies in them, as Mr. Snider, in his helpless
condition, is unable fully to state his own case.
Not unfrequently the oi rows of inventors are
traceable to their own improvidence or untit
ness for busincs, and alt-o to the inevitable
operation of the Patent law-; but in this in
stance there is nothing on the surface to lead to
any such assumption.
"Apart Irom his labors on the Continent, Mr.
Sotder was, it is believed, incessantly engaged
for eight monihs in the service of the depart
ment, oi Woolwich, and, looking at the expenses
of his; previous model-, drawings, etc., his
charge of 2700 for actual time aud outlay will
strike most persons as extremely moderate,
while the arbitrary cutting down of such an
item to 1000 is sufticieut to account tor the ex
istence of great pecuniary disiress. In all coun
tries where patcuts are conferred the Govern
ments have the legal power to use such inven
tions free of cost; but this is merely lor self-pro-iection,
and can never be properly pleaded as a
bar to a liberal acknowledgment for benefits
conferred. Mr. Snider asscited that, in accord
ance with a promise he o:iainally gave, he
always faithfully resisted inducements and offers
held out to Irm by other Governments to fur
ni;h them with a copy of his gun."
