-cii' Hide. . a writer sat in & well-known sal ,,.. at noon yesterday, eating a de lictus pal ad and sweltering over a cup of hot lea, whon the proprietor stepped up. "The boys have a nice day for their excursion to Kingston," said he. "They have indeed. Ever been t hero ?'' "Yes ; I took a couple of bnnk rub bers down there twenty-five or thirty years ago. "Yes sir. Never told lliat affair, did I? Well, was let me see in 1840. you about I will. It I wag work- ing at the- Old Eagle tavern ; had a couple of nice horses, and, for a young man, was doing a fine business. In those days theie were neither railroads nor telegraph ; the stage-coach was the only mode of public travel, nud it was the evout of the day to see the coaches from the west and New York bustle into the tavern. Well, one cold mor ning in the middle of December, I was just stepping out from the office to the Jong wooden veranda, w hen I noticed two well-dressed geatlemen, each car rying a good-sized traveling-satchel, hurrying toward the hotel. One of lham addressing me, said : 'Stage for New York gone vet?' Yes sir. " iT.w long?' " 'More'n two hours ago.' "They were much excited over tho news and asked what they could do to get to New York speedily. I told them I didn't know. The boats hud Btopped running a month, although one of them still ran to Kingston, tho river being open that far up. She would leave that evening for New York, and the stage coach which lett Albany a couple of hours before would transfer its passengers and mail to the steamer at Kingston Point. Then the gentlemen said they must get that boat, and asked if I knew a couple of fast horses in the city, and if they could got a carriage to beat the stage in. It was a matter of life and death, they said, and they would pay any price. I asked what price they would pay, and they told me they would give $600 to beat the stage to Kingston. It was a big sum and I whistled, but told them I'd take them, and off I ran. I found a friend of mine, Hank Lewis we hitched up the horses to a four eeated sleigh ; the two gentlemen bought 6ouoe whisky, and away we went, bound for Kingston. Lord, how we did go I Iwo hours behind the stage, and yet before we reached Athens we parsed it. Near Catskill tho horses gave ut completely, and we had to hire a new team. 1 didn't want to go any further on account of the horses, hut one ot the gentlemen asked : 'What is that team of yours worth?' 'Three hundred dollars,' I said. 'Drive on,' he answered, 'I'll pay for them.' Once we tipped over, and half an hour was spent petting things to rights. Then we went at it -again, and at half-past four we drove -up to Kingston Point, where the steamer lay all loaded, but waiting for tho Albany mail. "The two gentlemen went on board and asked for Captain Dean. Kecuine ah ana mey low mm wnni iney nai; i. i.i . i a j i j l 1 1 told Lewis and I coming down. How they resided in Canada, but were the sons of an Eiiglish'tiobJeraan, who had recently men, leaving a vaiuauie es ' j i . n.: -. . i l mit. xnuii pi L-rfcuvc ua lu-uuuu im mediately In London, if they would save the estate from a ilemgning rela tive.

They offered the Captain $2,000 if he would kave then and there aud make certain. of catching ithe shin. " 'Would like to make that 2,000, gentlemen,' said Captain Dean, 'but ruy orders are not to leave till I get Ihe Albany mail, and Icaonot accept.' "They seemed much disappointed, 'hut Baid 'it couldn t be expected, a-nu they made themselves agreeable to ev rybody about. They paid rcetbeGG0 jrroimscd, gave me t-oOU tor tho loo: horses, and gave my driver ana mon over $100 each. Wo waited until the tt&gecame; tl:o mails anu passengers were transferred : away went the 'boat in a hurry. Then we rode leisurely tack to Albany, it being a uc night, but before we got there we met the mounted police furiously eoming nftr-r our passengers, and the dead noble man's bogus sous. They were bank robbers, and those two satchels they had contained over 200,000 m gold nod L5ank of England notes, the pro coeds of a big Montreal robbery." "Did they catch them ?" "Catch 'cm ? No. When the started that night they talked t'antain D.iau and offered him boat with 8500 lolhirs if he would put them on board f the outward bound ship ixforo he ' :i tided, as she would be laying in the hannel. Captain Dean accepted, and i!:t at daylight the steamer lay along iida the vessel, and by tho time Cap tain Dean got to his pier aud the pas Kjugers awoke the fchip was sailing through the Narrows and away to England." "And tLe robbers were never heard of?" "Never. Why they had a tart of ir.irty days, aud, being young men they are perhaps living in clover . oiue European country ou their ill i wealth. They were smart ' to take us in by their Mnoclh ntlecaauly address." SQUARE GRAND PIANOS Retailed at "Wholesale Prices. OOO for 250. S03Ofor300. S700f0r 300. ?900for 3SO.
