GRINE. iivwart. Autericstai4lalipn) Ayr:voted for tilurder on the - nigh seas. In Deeember, 1867, the bark Java, commanded ' by Capt. Charles Kempton, left Massachusetts on a whaling voyage to the South . Polar Sea. A. the Cape 'Verde Islands the Captain added nine POrtuguese sailors to his crew, and sailed for the Indian Ocean.' The men now under arrest say that, in visiting another ship, one of the Portu guese Was aecidentally drowned, which displeased the captain so greatly that he placed another of the crew, whom he chose to hold responsible for the death of the lost sailor, in irons for 48 hours. This conduct, and the captain's alleged refasal to furnish good provisions, and the abusive conduct of the third mate, provoked the rest of the crew so much that they resolved to be revenged. A number of them armed themselves with bludgeons and firewood bloeke,caught the third mate as he came from his Otliers, and best him so unmercifully on the head that he expired in a few hours. Bates, the firet mate, attempted to protect his brother offi cer, but was so severely injured that his recovery is doubtful. The chief actors in this dreadful tragedy James W. Robinson James Canning, Benjamin Harrison, William J. Parker, Benja min Sefton, and John Brute°, then deserted the ship in a whaling boakand rowed direct for Ti moro,taking with them a small amount of food. After being at sea six days their provisions gave out, and they had to work for the three follow ing days without food. Arriving at Timore, which belongs to the Datch and Portnguese,they were in a pitiable plight. Some hospitable Dutch families discovered them lying on shore, gave them temporary relief, purchased their boat for 120 roupees, and despatched them to Deli, the chief city of the Island. On their arrival there they stated that they were shipwrecked mariners; but & Portuguese Revenue officer, doubting their veracity, persuaded them to go to Java in a steamer. Raving landed at. Java they wore ar rested by order of the American Consul, and placed in prison in Sore, a town in the bay of Java. Sere they remained for five months; and they assert that Brake died from ill-treatment and exposure in damp cells. Prom Sore they were transmitted to Batavia and put on board the Russian bark' view Orleanet, for conveyance to New. York, on the 28th of last November. The bark put in at Padang, in the Island of Sumatra, the men were imprisoned for a month. while the vessel' wart taking in cargo. The Now Orleans arrived at this port yesterday, having the men on board in good health. They were sent to the Ludlow street prison pending their trial for the murder of the first and third mates. The men have received excellent characters from their own captain, as well as from the cap tain or officer of the bark New (Mesas. They are all young, and while admitting that "two of their crowd killed their mates, refuse to divulge the names of the murderers. They complain of the harsh treatment they received on board their vessel and while in jail, and seem eager to have their case disposed of.— Tribune. WE $20.000 BOND BODBEBY IN /MENTON, N. .1, Arrest 01 Two Parties by the De tective•. The N. Y. Herald of to-day says : It will be remembered that on the 30th of last October seven $l,OOO bonds on the Central Pa cific Railroad and nine $l,OOO bonds on the Union Pacific Railroas were stolen from the residence of Dr. McKelv4y, of Trenton, N. J. As soon as the robbery was discovered circulars de scriptive of the bonds were sent to the various cities of the United States and the Canadas. The detectives of this city, under the direc tion of Chief Kelso, immediately went to work to ferret out the Whereabouts of the thieves and the bonds, but, notwithstanding all their efforts, they mere unsuccessful In their search until yes terday, when a certain Wall street broker offered three of the' bonds for sale to Fisk do Hatch. This firm, on examining the bonds, at once per ceived that they were of the number that bed been stolen from Dr. McKelvey, and thereupon sent for Detectives Coyle and Irving of the Central Police Office. On the arrival of the detectives the broker who had' offered the bonds for sale explained that he had received the bonds from another broker named John 'Herrick, and that the latter was patiently awaiting his return to his office in order to receive the proceeds of the sale. The di3teclives at once proceeded to Mr. Horrick's office, when they introduced themselves in the usual fashion. That gentleman seemed some what surprised at the visit of the duo,tint aseorted that he was not aware at the time the bonds came into his possession that they had been stolen from any pertain, doctor or otherwise. He stated that four or five days ago a man named William Meyer called upon him and asked him if he could not dispose of some bonds for him, and yesterday three $l,OOO bonds inclosed in an envelope were left addressed to him at 79 Cedar street. The detectives, without more ado, arrested Mr. Herrick, and soon afterward suc ceeded in getting hold of Meyer, whom they locked up at Police Headquarters. Whether or not Mr. Herrick is guilty of receiving the bonds and attempting to dispose of them, kno wing that they were of the number advertised as having been stolen from Dr. McKelvey, is a question which will be decided in a pollee court to-day. Return of a Comet The London Daily News of April 21 says; "During the last taw weeks astronomers - Wave been on the lookout for the return of one of those periodical comets whit% forms° to speak, a part of the solar family. The brilliant comets wbich•come to ns from out the depths of space, and after blazing in our skies for a greater or less Interval, pass away again into those same un fathomed abysses, are, by comparison,mere occa sional visitors. But there is a set of small comets which regularly, and at short intervals, return to our neighborhood; and the ono we are now deal ing with belongs to this class. News haajrust come from a foreign observatory that the wanderer has been discovered. He is now traversing the in conspicuous constellation of the Hunting Doge, bat is as yet far too faint to be seen without a powerful telescope. Even the possessor of such a telescope would find it difficult to discover the comet were not its place accurately Indicated• since In the neighborhood of its path the myste rious nebula are spread with unusual profusion. On this account it may be well for those who wish to examine the new-corner to wait until Mr. Bind, who has long been recognized as the lead ing English authority in matters cometic, has marked out for the stranger the path which it shall follow across the skies. "The comet which has just returned is com monly called Winnecke's comet, having been dis covered by that astronomer in 1858. It must not be confounded, however, with a comet of the same name which returned last year. The latter was one of much longer period, and quite differ ent in character. The present one travels on in five and a half years round the BIM. It as described in 1858 as having at first 'the app ar ye once of an undefined nebula, the light mos in tensein the centre, but no true nucleus to be seen:' ater a well-marked nucleus made ha ap pearance. "It must have returned in 1863, but was not then favorably placed for observation. Indeed, a little consideration will show that a comet traveling in a period of five and a half years can only be well stink at alternate returns. If at uric visit it le well placed in the nocturnal sky, at the next the half year difference brings it on the diurnal sky, and of course the light of the bIIII blots out so faint an object, even when the most powerful telescope is made use of. In this mat ter of its period Winneeke's comet is not sie gular. More than half of the comets of short pe riods take about five years and a half in the per foimunce of their circuit around the sun. The citcumt-tat ce is well worthy of notice, and has a 1 ety let. resting int( rpretation. It arises from the strange way in which the short-period comets have been twisted into our neighborhood by the planet Jupiter. "This monstrous fellow goes on his rounds like a gigantic policeman, and takes up comet after comet, which but for him would have passed far away from the neighborhood of the sun. Bir John Herschel has related In lively teims how Jupiter ill-treated Leach's comet, first twisting it into the solar system, Buffering it to go twice round the eon, and then unceremoni ously twisting it out again, so that astronomers have never seen It since. That was precisely the Sort of treatment which gives to a comet a five and a half year period or thereabouts. For a comet 'which has thus been forced into the s olar system must necessarily have the moat distant part of its path just outside the orbit of Mercury; and that being am, the laws of ,planetary motion tell us its period must be about five and a half years. The worst of the matter is, that with an orbit so placed a comet is all'ays,apt to be sent again u tter n n eal ls a tra t hrin l d a ; !) W Y ll 3 oP UP t i h te j . Co i l e a t "re h t a u p rn p s en to eci th t e u neighborhood of his , orbit, 'he will twist it out ofits path tuitasily-its' the Great Eastern would tow a cock-boat.' In' feet, the way in which Jupiter treats the comical clouds which we call comets merits for hint the - title of "cloud coin peller."_which 'Berner gave to the Jupiter of Mount Olympus. "Altogether, wo may congratulate oumeives on the safe return of the wanderer now visiting our skies. For it hus happened, quite recently that our astronomers bay., searched long and fruit losely for one of the same family. We refer to the tamous cornet named Biela,• the failure is that case being peculiarly provoking, because the comet had presented the strange spectacle of a perfect division into two distinct parts, and as tronomers were naturally anxious to know what might be the results of this operation, after a complete revolution of the twin system. The present comet, though not quite so remarkable an object, will doubtless attract a great deal of attention. Mr. Huggins will probably obtain la tereetlmg results by examining it spectroscopi cally, and we have no doubt that it will not pass away again into space withoat having taught us some valuable lessons respecting cometic hark. tudes." A Lottery Story. A Parts letter-writer tells this story: "M. Brandimarte Saletti, Secretary of the Mu nicipal Council at Florence, desired his head clerk last Monday to purchase four lottery tickets for him, the numbers of which he know were not as yet sold, at £1 each, and accordingly handed him a hundred franc note. The clerk, a most trustworthy person. carefully folded the note and placed it in his waistcoat pocket. Meeting a 'fiend on hie k way home, however, he utterly lorgot the commiseion, till next morning, as he pasted the lottery office, it recurred to him, but, alas! it was too late; the numbers his em ployer had desired him to purchase had been bought up, and the list closed. On reaching his office be found M. Beloit' absorbed in business, and he determined to delay the confession of his lapses of memory till after the drawing. fie therefore dived into his own particular offiee,and said nothing. M. Saletti, however, an inveterate lottery-player, was on the alert, and at the exact hour rushed to the nearest office, where the pleasant spectacle greeted him of the four num bers be had selected having won no less than 1,800,000 fr. "Wild with delight, M. Saletti rushed home to tall the glad news, and the frantic excitement of the family can be conceived. On his way back to the Hotel de Ville ho met the syndic of Flo rence, M. Tertrzi, whose congratulations wore most hearty ; then Count Cambray-Digny, the Finance Minister, who ilia his best to cairn him, end laughingly said, 'Only think of its being you who thus help to empty the treasury.' Once in his own office, he rang. More dead than alive, appeared his head clerk. 'Give me quickly the receipt,' asked M. Saletti. 'Hors, sir, are the hundred francs.' 'What hundred franca?' De what you will with me, sir; send me to the g yr lows or to the guillotine, but I forget to buy the tickets !' " CITY BULLETIN Destructive Fire In the Sixth Ward.

Thomas Lefroy. late Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench in Ireland, of whose death the cable brings tts intelligence, was an Irishman by birth, and a descendant on his father's side of one of those French Huguenot families which persecution drove into exile nearly three ct flirt' les ago. Ho was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and was called to the Irish bar in 1797. Distinguishing himself in his proles mo, he was, in 1819. appointed a Bencher of King's Inns, and In 1830 was elected a member of Parliament for the University of Dublin, which he continued to represent, in the Conservative Interest, till 1850, when he was elevated to the post of Baron of the Exchequer in Ireland. For faithful service in this capacity he was, In 1852. promovd to the Chief Justiceship of Ireland, which office he held till 1866, when the infirmi ties of age compelled him to retire. Unlike Grattan, Flood, O'Connell, and other eminent Irishmen of shining forensic talents, and re markable ability as Parliamentary orators, his sympathies were always on the Aide of the Gov ernment, despite its persistent refusals to do jus tice to Ireland, and ho received his reward in the honors and emoluments that were from time to time heaped upon him. He passes away not leaving behind him the record of any noble deed of patriotism to endear his memory to his coun trymen. He had reached the advanced age of 9.1 —Tribune. CITY NOTICES.
