I lIKOIIdII BUNISINH TABLEY.
BY WII.I.IAM TJtAUTWINK.
JfO. 11— MILFORD AND PORT JERVIS,
" We passed out of Milford- while the dew
still sparkled, and followed the roads in a
westwanlly direction for perhaps a mile, to a
point where the Saw Kill tumbles over a mill
dam and slides under tile highway. A beaten
track shortly led us thence to sprightly rapids,
the Tsckolentit, or Little-bird Falls. We could
plainly hear their warbliug, through the hush
of the leaves, while yet a long way otr. Clam
bering to the lowest of a series of rocky steps,
over which the stream 1 courses, we lounged
awhile on a sunny boulder, enjoying the frisk
ing play of the w&ter. Then, following up
the creel; somewhat farther through the woods,
and climbing a moderate hill-slope, we were
soon brought face to face with the Upper, or
Machtando, Fall.
We rested upon a rock platform, almost on a
level with the opposite precipice, over which
the stream plunges- Falling twice over ledges
ef. inconsiderable height, the entire volume of
the creek is precipitated with truly.grand.effect
from a broad shelf—striking • a mass of irre
gular rocks—down which it dashes' again into
the dark bed below. Usually the volume of
water is divided almost equally.; the twincata
racts roaring in unison side by side.
Mr. lledd tells us this place was anciently
deemed, a resort of the Wicked One. Here
were conducted strange incantations and pow
wows. , Hencejtlie significance of Machtando
—(Evil Spirit).
Chimpanzee agility carries one to tlie “De
vil’s Kitchen” and the bottom of things, whence
may be gleaned a good realization of universal
«haoe.
For many years, while Tekeuiuk, Candidis-
Aima, and the WuiLsso Fall on Dingmau’s
-Creek,.remained in comparative obscurity, this
vicinity, better known, received theadmiration
of thousands. The Doctor not unreasonably
complains that a slight sense of tlie worn-out
—a fragrance of sarsaparilla and cigar-smoke
—constant symptoms of the presence of the
to wit’s, foreign garrison—are painful associa
tions.
Many, of us, indeed, “go to see” Nature iu
perfect sincerity, and possessing.a modern ap
preciation, for the remarkable, thoroughly enjoy
“the sights.” But others,.perhaps less fortu
nate, more truly relish a rill in the forest, found
'? unsought—the sport of a squirrel on some zig
zag fence—rthan either elephant or waterfall,
regularly advertised and on public exhibition.
\ -Those feelings excited by unconscious ob
nervations—do they not invariably last longest
and move us most?
Since our entry into Milford, I find the Doc
tor Jias steadily lost appetite and acquiree’
gloom. At this rime he thus unburdened—

• In out,'return we mounted a wooded lull
which rises from the fall’s path, add looked
thence upon a sort of ground plan and eleva
tion of Milford and vicinity, neatly draughted,
and well tinted in various . grays--so bespat
tered with many-colored Helds as. to hintrno
tions' of an old-fashioned bed-quilt. Passing
clouds greeted US with - sprinkles during the
remainder of our homeward walk.
Botany has' her votaries id Minisink Valley.
Often, at early morn, did we encounter groups
of maidc&g accoutred for the onslaught. The
least youthful, with Spectacles, bore, huge tin
boxes for heavy work; surmounted with copies
.Of Gray’s Manual \or t Wood’s Flora; those of
more tender years swung light baskets, or car
ried solemnly under the, arm a brightly
japanned “Bible,” or “Eife of Baeo-n.”
The Dbctor, kindly complying with a re
quest, hands me a little slip from which I copy
the following, as local hints to our fair friends:
“In t'he dark hemlock forest of the ravine,
looking towards Ramy’s Kill fqlis, I found the
little ghastly-looking wax-like stein and flower
of the corpse plant ( Moiwtropa uniflora).
Here the'fragrant flowers of tho Teaberry were
in bloom. On the fence, by the mill, at the
moutll of Ramy’s Kill, near the Minisink Pali
sades, clambered the many-flowered Clematis,
or Virgin’s Bower. Clinging to the crevices
between stones of the abutment of the old
bridge at Dingman’s Ferry, T noticed the Scu
tellaria laterifelia —those little blue “skull
caps” or “helmets”—growing in onesided ra
cemes. The Mirra this rrnjens (Monkey
flpwer) from Stroudsburg railway station—an
occasional Adliunia (Allegheny vine) about
Tukenink fall—and the brightly-blooming
Lobelia Canfinalis (Cardinal flower) near
Candidissima; about complete my list of all
wbrtbv of mention found flbwering at the time
of my hasty notice.”
[Here let the frequent use of the Doctor’s
botanical memoranda in the first series of
N otes from the Delaware Water Gap be thank
fully acknowledged.]
It may interest some to learn that Rogers
reports a deposit of the black oxide of manga
nese at the mouth of a small stream, three
miles northeast of Milford, occurring among
pebbles of broken and rolled blocks and sand
debris from the sides of the ravine.
A calm siesta on the shady hotel balcony—a
farewell promenade and resuvvey of the town
succeeded. It must have been 4 o’clock
when an astoundingly grotesque vehicle hove in
sight,, and was warped in with difficulty to the
porch. We entered—hesitatingly. The driver i
applied a shingle to the square terminations of
our coursers, and we were again envoyar/e.
The roail north of Milford is inferior to
that below; More earth and angles—less
slate and solidity. A pleasant ride qf exactly
an hour carried us through the last stage of
our forty miles’journey and ended at the Del
aware House, inPort Jervis, N: V. A limited
absence from railroads causes the first sight
and sound of a locomotive engine to impress
one singularly, and it is not odd that the noise
and vibration produced by the progress of end
less jarring trains over soma half dozen Hacks
of the Erie Railroad in. front of our hotel
rather disturbed the night’s slumber.
In the early evening we explored, the princi
pal portions of this thriving, bustling place,
which bears unmistakably the stamp of its
parent, the great metropolis.
The railroad having established “Delaware”
station at a point beyond the outskirts, the
latter have extended to' and embraced the
improvements, no longer separately distin
guishable.
Port Jervis is noted for its coal and lumber
trade, railroad accidents, and prize-fights—the
latter staple being chargeable to the happy union
of three State lines at this point, as enlarged
upon hereafter. t
Its original establishment is attributed to the
divergence of Huguenot-Dutch settlers from
the Hudson. ;lt was hence that Peter Decker
commenced that wandering exploration be
yond the Kittatinny, which resulted in found
ing the town in Sussex county, N. J., now per
petuating his good name. Forty years later,
the adjacent country was reddened in the mas
sacre of Minisink—interwoven with memories
of Brant,; A township of Orange county, New
York, still bears the name of the battle and
the valley.
Quiirest_ that,night; jvhen not relieved by
passing trains on the one side, was agreeably in
terrupted on the other by an astonishingly con
tinuous cats’ concert, held directly outside our
window. < :f
Early on Friday morning we followed tlie
railroad and river to “ Laurel Cemetery,” beau
tifully situated ou the peninsula formed by the
meeting of the waters—the junction of the
Delaware and Neversink. On the extreme
rocky foot which steps into the current, an iron
bar, securely imbedded, marks the dividing
point of New' York, New Jersey and Pennsyl
vania. We rested upon this peg, and felt
proudly conscious that by (hopping as we
listed, and as most politic, we could stfiile defi
ance upon at least two sheriffs. On the Nevef
sink the high grass and shading trees crept nearly
to the water’s edge. Graceful flowers adorned
the crevices of pitted rocks on the Delaware
side. A lit place to muse in idleness. It is
not strange that our thoughts floated .with .‘tlie
peacefully waters into" the far
gray indistinctness—to the pleasant beaches—
the mountain-bound meadows—endeared to
our remembrance.
(Here let me whisper, in. parenthesis, that
shameless parties have indeed thrown doubts
upon the entity of Mr. Asa Hodd, while other's,
proceeding further, openly pronounce the Doc
tor abase fabrication. As to .the latter, it ap
peals that gross mistakes have occurred; other
individuals, of totally differing descriptions, be
ing confounded with that gentleman. For this
who .shall be blamed?)
Once more it is afternoon, and we stand
upon the station platform, ready to depart.
The delayed eastward train quickly rolls us
over th# and slowly climbing the
wester n slopes of the Shawangunk mountains,
we look backward until the high level is at
tained. Then, with rapidly increasing speed,
we msh down toward the shores of the Hud
son, and the beautiful valley of the Minisink
fades into a recollection of the past.

pKOi’lfeALS FOR MAIL LOCKS.
Post Office Depahtment,
■ ! Washington, October 10,1869.
" SEALED PROPOSALS lor furnishing
Mail-Looks, and Keys of new kirfds, to be sub
stituted for tlie Locks and Keys now used on
the United States mails, ‘will be roceived atthis
Department until 9,o’elock A. M. the 3d day of
FEBRUARY, 1870. It is desirable to obtain
Locks and Keys of a new construction for the
exclusive use of the United States mails, and,
if practicable, invented expressly for that pur
pose. As the exposure of nmodel Lock and
Key to public examination would impair, if •
not destroy, its utility far the mails, the De
partment prescribes no model for bidders, but
relies for its selection on the speciinnns of
mechanical skill and ingenuity which a fair
competition among inventors, hereby
invited, may develop.,- It is suf
ficient to describe ' thO principal
requisites of a Mail-Lock, as follows: Self-
Locking uniformity, security, lightness,, strength,
durability, novelty of construction, and facility of
use: Two kinds Of Locks land Keys; one of
brass and the Other of iron,-difterent in exte
rior fond and interior construction or arrange
ment, are required; the Proposals should
specify separately the price of each brass
Lock, each Key for same ; each iron Lock,
and each Key for same,: Dnplicate samples of
each kind of Locks and Keys ; proposed are
required to be submitted with the Proposals;
one of each Sample Lock to be riveted up aim
finished, and another to be open or unriveted,
so that its internal structure and arrangement
may easily be examined. Every sample should
be plainly marked with the bidder’s name,
and, if the same or any part of it be covered
by a patent, the date of such patent and the
name of the patentee must also be attached
thereto. ■
The internal plan or arrangement of the
Locks offered, and the particular'shape of the
Key requisite to open them, must not bo like
any now or heretofore in use.
They must he warranted not to infringe
upon or conflict witli any patented invention
of which the bidder is not the patentee. Pre
ference will be given to a Lock, the Key of
Which has not been exposed to general obser
vation, or been publicly described, disclosed,
or suggested. , ,
A decision on the various specimens aud
Proposals will bo made on or before tlw 3d
' day of MARCH, 1870 ; and, unless the Post
master-General shall deem it to bo best for the
interests of the Department to reject all the
Proposals and specimens submitted under this
advertisement (a right hereby expressed!) 1 re
served to liiml, contiaets will be entered into,,
as soon thereafter as practicable, with the
successful bidder whose Locks shall bo
adopted, for furnishing similar Locks and
Keys for four years, as they may be required
and ordered. If mutually agreed to in writing
by the contractor and the Postmaster-
General for the time being, not less
than six months before its expiration,
the contract may be extended and
comtimted for an additional term of four
years. But on and after the expiration of
either term of the contract, or on and after
its rightful anulmeut at any time, the Post
master-General shall have' the right to con
tract with or employ any other party to
furnish the same, or any other kind of
Locks and Keys; and if he shall deem proper,
to demand and receive from the late or de
faulting contractor all ffuished or unfinished
Keys and the internal parts of the Locks con
tracted for, and all dies, gauges, and designs,
(which would enable others to make or forge
such Locks or Keys), in the possession of such
contractor, who, after their surrender to the
Department, shall be paidfor the same,at such
price as may be ascertained by fair appraise
ment.
The contractor must agree and be aide to
furnish, if required aud ordered, 20,000 Brass
Locks and 3,000 Brass Keys within tlireo
months from the time-of entering iuto con
tract, and 80,000 Iron Locks and 60,000 Iron
Keys within ten months from such time. But
the Postmaster-General will reserve the right
to increase or diminish, as the Avants or inter
ests of the service may demand, the quantities
of the Locks and Keys above specified, with
a proportionate allowance of time to furnish
them. ’
All the Locks furnished by the contractor
must be warranted to keei> in good working
order for two years in the ordinary use of tlie
"service, when not subjected to obvious vio
lence ; such as become defective withiu that
time to he replaced with perfect Locks with
out charge. All the Locks furnished uuder
contract are to be, each, distinctly marked
“ IT. S. Mail,” in either sunk or raised letters,
and all the Keys are to he numbered in the
natural order; each Key having its appropri
ate number distinctly stamped upon oue side
of the how, and “ U. S. Mail” on the opposite
side,
The contractor will be required to deliver
the Locks at his own expense at the Post-.
Office Department, Washington,'D. C., put'up
on sticks, forming separate bundles of five
Locks each, and securely ]lacked in wooden
boxes containing riot more than two hundred
Locks each. The Keys are to be delivered ' to
an agent of tho Department,duly and specially
authorized in each case to take charge of ana
convey the sariie from the contractor’s manu
factory to the Department, where both Locks
and Keys are to he inspected and approved be
fore they shall be paid for.
The contractor will be required to give bond,
with ample security, in the sum of fifty thou
sand dollars, to bo forfeited to the United
States as liquidated damages, in case of his
failure to faithfully perform the contract,
either as to furnishing the supplies ordered
within a reasonable time, or as to guarding
the manufacture of the Mail Locks and Keys
with due privacy, integrity and care.
No Proposal will, therefore, bo accepted if
not accompanied With a bond of the penal
. sum of Twenty Thousand .Dollars, duly exe
cuted by the proposed sureties (whose respon
sibility must he certified by a Judge of a Court
of Record nearest to'their place of residence,
attested by the Clerk of such Court under the
seal thereof), and conditioned for their becom
ing responsible as sureties on the required
bond for the fulfillment of the contract, in case
i (such Proposals shall be accented. Tho manu
facture of Mail Locks and Keys is, of neces
sity, a highly important and delicate trust
which the Department will confide to no bidder
whoso Proposals are not also accompanied
with testimonials of good character.
In deciding on the Proposals aud specimens
the Postmaster-General may deem it expedi
ent to select the Brass Lock of one bidder and
the Iron Lock of another. He, therefore, re
serves the right of contracting with different
individuals tor such different kinds of Locks
as he may select;
Proposals shoula be carefully sealed and ad
dressed to the “Second Assistant Postmaster-
General,” and endorsed on the envelop6“Pro
posals for Mail Locks.”

DEATH OF BEAK ADMIRAL. CHARLES
STEWART, V. S. N.
Admiral Stewart, the last officer in the navy
tvlio entered it in the last century, died at his
l residence, Bordentown, New Jersey, at half-.
. past three o’clock 6n Saturday afternoon. His
i disease was a lingering one—tumor, or in
' cipient cancer of the tongue.
; ! The deceased admiral was a native of Phila-
I delphia. He was -born July 28, 1778, and
j entered the navy as a lieutenant in March,
J 1798. His first service was under Commodore
1 Barry, on the frigate United States (44), in
) the West where she was sent to de
; fend our commerce against French privateers.
In the autumn of that year he assisted
in the capture of the privateers Sanspareil, 10,
and the Jaloux, 14 guns, as well as some other
vessels. His conduct was 'such that he was
ji given command of the Experiment (12.)
Learning that an American seaman was held
on a British ship-of-the-line, one of his first
acts was to demand and secure his release. In
I /September he captured the French privateer
! Depx Amis, 8 gun's, and soon after La Diane,
l 14 guns, with General Rigeaud on board,bound
j to France. The Experiment had been chased
j by these two vessels, separated them in sailing
and captured them in detail. He also captured
the privateer Louisa Bridger, S guns, from Ber
muda, arid a number of. others, and reached
Norfolk in 1801.
The next sea service of the deceased Admi
i ral was in 1802, when he was ordered to the
1 Constellation, as first lieutenant, iu the war
against Tripoli. He left the Constellation for
' the Suen (10), under Commodore Preble, and
; attained the grade of lieutenant commander,
i When tho frigate Philadelphia was captured
i Stewart oilered to cut her out; but liis offer
' was declined. He, however, convoyed the
{ketch Intrepid, Captaiii Decatur, that burned
l her at "her moorings. The officers", en-.
'igagcd .in that perilous undertaking were
| among the most famous of our early
naval history. Besides Stewart, there' were
Decatur, Bainbridge, Lawrence, McDonough.
I and Morris. Stowart Jwas hurt by a capstan
; during ihe night of tho enterprise.. The zeal
.which he shewed in the undertaking is mam
; fest from the fact that, after his proposal had
been declincd, h 6 80nt a, boat and eight of his
own crew to a&sistDeeatur; to whom tho com
mand was given. Whepi the latter came out
from the harbor he found Stewart, then .the
oldest lieutenant in the service and second in
command of the Mediterranean squadron,'
waiting for him. and made his report.
Commodore Preble ': publicly, j' thanHed him'
for his conduct on this and other occasions
there, and in May, 1804, he was made com
mander, in company with Hull, Chauncey,
Smith and others now historic in our naval
records. Among other achievements of his in
these waters was the capture of the British
privateer Transfer (16), whose crew, though at
quarters when Stewart rangedalongside, sur
rendered without a shot; and the dispersion
of a Turkish land force who were resisting the
capture of a felucca. He was promoted, with
Hull, Chauncey, Smith and Somers, to be
master commandant in August; covered an
attack on Tripoli that month, and sailed for
Tunis, Syracuse and home, with Commodore
Rodgers, as commander of the Constellation in
September, when the war dosed.
When the law of April, 1800, was passed,
reoiganlzhig the navy, Stewart was promoted
to a full captaincy, and ranked eleventh in the
grade, that included hut fourteen. From 1800
to 1812 he was employed in supervising the
construction of gunboats. When, in 1812, the
Cabinet contemplated laying up all our.mea
of-war, in order to prevent their capture by
England in. the imminent war, Stewart and
Bainbridge visited Washington and opposed the
project successfully bytheir personal influence.
Stewart was ordered to command the
Constellation (38), in September, then block
aded at Norfolk, near C'raney Island, by a
British squadron. He made preparations for
defensive action that were highly praised, but
was transferred to the Constitution (44),"then
undergoing repairs. The Constitution sailed
from Boston, December, 1813. ' She captured
the Pictou (14), a letter of marque, and several
merchantmen; returned, was chased into
Marblehead by the frigates Junon and Tene
dos, or La Nymphe, in April, 1814, and after
ward sailed into Boston.
On the 17th of December Stewart left Bos-
ton in the Old Ironsides for Bermuda, where
he made two captures, and thence to the Bay
of Biscay. On the night of February 20,1815,
he captured the British ships Cyane and Le
vant. The Constitution had 52 guns and 470
men in this memorable action,while his enemy
mounted 50 guns. He was not raked himself,
but raked both of his opponents,and was ready
for action again three hours after the victory.
He put in to the Cape de Verde islands to repair.
A British fleet, consisting of the Leander
(50), Newcastle (50) and Acasta, appeared in
the offing. Stewart did not believe that they
would respect a neutral port, and put to sea.
The British recaptured the Levant,but the Con
stitution and her other prize reached home
safely in May, after having taken five vessels
of war, of which two were frigates. The
whole country rose to do honor to the victori
ous commander. Congress gave him a gold
medal, and bestowed silver medals on his offi
cers. Philadelphia gave him a vote of thanks
and civic honors. New York did the same,
and Pennsylvania gave him a sword.
From 1810 to 1820 Stewart commanded the
Mediterranean squadron, having the Franklin
(74) for his flagship. This ship, ft is interest
ing to notice, living been rebuilt and con
verted to a screw steamship, lias lately been the i
flagship of Stewart’B great successor, Farragnt, j
in the same waters, after long inactivity. Af- j
ter his return from Europe, Stewart was sent 1
to the Pacific from iB2l to 1824 in the Frank- ;
lin. His real sea service ended about this pe
riod. In 1838 he was second on tbe list of
captains. He subsequently commanded the
Philadelphia Navy Yard, and returned from
tbe command of the borne squadron and from
his last cruise in November, 1843. He was
employed in various advisory capaci
ties at the Navy Department, and
counseled on all proposed changes of organiza
tion. In 1857, having attained seventy-nine
years, he was placed on the reserved list; but
two years later he was again made active and
promoted to be senior flag officer. His last
official duty was rendered as commandant of
the Philadelphia Navy Yard, from which he
was relieved at his own request in ISOOrI. On
leaving here he removed to Bordentown, New
Jersey, where he has since resided, respected
by all who knew him, and visited by many
who wished to pay their, tribute to one who had
been so nobly and iraperisbably connected with
some of the most brilliant achievements of our
navy.
Admiral Stewart was made Rear Admiral
July 16, 1862, but owing to his advanced age j
the promotion was purely honorary, and he j
was placed on the retired list. He entered the
service in March, 1708, and had therefore been
connected with the navy for nearly seventy
two years. The oldest of those whom he leaves
behind him are Admirals Shubrick, Smith,
Stringham and Crabbe; and Commodores Sal
ter, Aiffick, and Latimer, who have been in
the navy from fifty-eight to sixty-three years.
Farragut’s connection is a little less than fifty-
The Admiral leaves one son—Charles T.—
who was with him at his death, and a daugh
ter—Mrs. Purnell, residing in Dublin. He re
tained ail of liis faculties to the very last,
though for several days previous to. his decease
he was unable to speak, and expressed himself
by means of a slate. His peculiar cramped
chirograpby was as firm and legible to the last
when, at the close of the second war with Eng
land, the Secretary of the Navy urged the of
ficers of. the navy to join the merchant service,
in order to assist its rapid recovery, Admiral
Stewart heeded the recommendation; and was
for some time so employed. The whole coun

the deceased belonged in refreshing his patri-

no change or wavering on the part of the loyal
Republicans, but that they stand now as they
stood iu the past, an insurmountable barrier to
llie progress of tbe enemies of free government
and an undivided Union.
Resolved, That the Republican' party of
Pennsylvania presents to the nation a .State
organization homogeneous in all, its depart
ments, executive, representative and judicial j
that the friends of freedom in every section
of our glorious country can confidently
rely upon- that party for' sympathy
and support. .
Resolved, That the Republican victory in
Pennsylvania at the late election was an em
phatic endorsement of the National Adminis
tration; that, towering above all selfish con
siderations, and having in view the general
good, the loyal Republicans of Pennsylvania,
proclaim their continued confidence in the in
tegrity, wisdom and patriotism of President
Grant,, and that to no State can he look with
greater hope for disinterested friendship than
to the Keystone of the Federal Arch.
Resolved, That the thanks of this associa
tion are cordially extended to Hon. Geo. S.
Boutwell, Secretary of the Treasury, for the
material aid given the cause by his great
speech deUvered in Philadelphia on the even
ing of the Oth of October last. - _•
A committee was appointed to devise a plan
for sociables during the coming winter. au(l it
is expected that the meetings will be replete
with interest and pleasure. After the transac
tion of unimportant business, the'tueeting ad
journed.
It deserves to be mentioned that
