Pitcairn Itland , the spot vis ted , la a
lonely and distint land in tbo South Pa
cific ocean , latitude 25 1C , and longltudo
li)0 ) * 8'west. It is tire and one-quarter
miles In length and ono mile In breadth.
The shores rise almcst perpendicular and
thorc Is but one accessible landing place ,
Bounty Bay. The iiland is clotaod with
luxurant verdure , and the bases of Its
lofty cllfls arc skirted with thickly branch
ing oveigreoua , Its inhabitants are spe-
c'nlly Intarcatiog , bccauso they are the
descendants of the mntineors of tbe
famous ship Bounty and are isolated from
the entire world. The islanders are de
scribed by Oaplatn Andenon ni a com
munity such ; i3 has boon the dream of
poets and the aspirations of philoiophora.
James Ilusaoll McCoy , the chief magis
trate of the country , with all of the men
came of In a hrgo whale boat and
boarded the Snow and Butgass m'les ont
at sea. They reported the entire popu
lation tibo K0 ! souls , all of whom wcie
were enjoying good health.
In 1787 the ship Boun'y ' set sail from
England , under the direction of the Eng
lish government- , for the Society Islnmta
for a stock of bread-fruit trees. The
Island of Taliiti was rearhed in tafo'y and
tha trees collected , but the Bounty had
not proceeded long on her return voyage
when the majority of her ciow , overcome
by the temptation of leading a life of total
idlcncsj nnd dissipation in : i luxurious
climate , determined to mutiny. One of
the mates , Fletcher Christum , was the
leader of the mutiny , and out of a crew of
forty-six men sixteen only remnimd true
to their commander. Cap'ryn Bligh was
afterward put in a boat with sixteen of
his crow and turccd adrift in the ocean.
Afraid of being captured , Christian left
Pitcairn nnd landed nt Norfolk Island ,
and again left there for Pi'cnitn Itland ,
whuo most of his descendants now reside
For yens the English government sup
posed all hands had perished , ns nothing
hud beea seen of them. In 1803 Captniu
Tolgcr , of the ship Topaz , of Boston , ca'l- '
ed nt Fitcii'm ' for water , and ,
having auppsed it to be uninlu-
bltod , was much surprised to s o
n canoe with two men of n light
brown hue approach tbe vessel and re
quest in good Englleh that a rope bo
thrown them. They wore the descend
ants of the mutineers. When thia news
reached England the war-ship Pandora
was tent to Htcilrn and salzed s'xtoon of
the men and carried thorn to England ,
where they wore promptly executed.
At n distance the island la completely
[ ilotely hidden in the trees , to that from
the sea it appears uninhabited. When
tha men bearded the Snow and Bnrgcra
their dress waa n perfect cariottare.
Some wore long black coats without any
other article ! of dross ; others had shirts
without cents , and still othora wora waist
coats without either of thoHratmcntlpned
garments , None had ahoas or stockings ,
and only two possessed hati , neither of
which teemed likely to hang long to
gether.
Cats load charmed lives at Pitcairn.
The law in regaid to these animals Is that
if n cat ia killed without being positively
detected In killing fowla , however strong
tbo suspicion may be , the person killing
such rat la obliged , aa a penalty , to de-
it roy 000 rats , whoio tails muet be anb-
mi ted for the inspection of the magis
trate by way o [ piojf that tha penally has
been paid.
The females , nouly all of whom are
married , are t til , straight and hnidaomc ,
with b'nsk glcsiy hair and ivory teeth ,
and have generally a piece of cbth for
their c'othing , of their own manufacture ,
reaching from their waiit to their kneoi.
Siinetlrnoj they carry a looio piece of
cloth to prilcct them from the tun , or
Hie teverity of the weather. It ia said
that tbo morality of the early PitcaVn
people haa disappeared. More Immoral
sonduct has occurred lately than ever be-
Fore. It la believed thatccnlioued Inter
marriage in ao small a community baa bc-
un to produce its usual atlVcts , and that
both physical dcgauerncy and mental
weakness aie likely to appear in the
future. For thih rf.vion the English
[ jovornment will no doubt remove them
before rnnny yenis. The only bnalmss
at the island coneiits of furnishing fruits
to paaain < ; vessels.

for I took you for n minister of the gos
pel. ' lie smilingly r phwl , 'I do pfo&ch

"When my m'nil ' goes b.ick to that
period , " said'Col. Knight , "I nin aston-
islictl that a man of his mildness of man
ners could bo the snmo limn who was such
n nnmlcier nnd oulhw in Kansas. J here
was nn incident , let mo tell
you rght here , in connection
wi h this visit. John Brjwn nnd
his party wore perfect outlaws in Kauaaa
and refused to lot any persons from the
south bring their slaves to Kinsas and
settle there. Ho was committing so
many outrages tbnt his name became fa
mous , and ho waa known as 'Oiaawalto- '
mio Brown.1 Ills lawlessness In Kansis
had permeated the whole country , espe
cially tha southern states , and Col. Iloa-
ccr , of Petersburg , determined to got up
a company of picked men and go to Kan
sas and drive Brown out of the atatc
Col. Itoaaorcimo to my county , got no
hundred young men from that and neigh
boring counties , thoroughly armed and
equipped thorn , and wont to Kansas in
March of that year. Bo had not boon
there n week before ho was ambushed by
Brown's party , and the result was the
company from Virginia bocamoacittcrod.
"Brown , aoelng that ho would not
again bo tumbled in Kanaaa , looked for
ward ta a grander achcme , the bringing
about of on inaurretion among the ne
groes of the sontb , making the yravo mis
take that they would llock t } his stand
ard when ho appeared among thorn. Ills
visit to Virginia was to familiarize him-
salf with the conntry roads and the rela
tive strength of the people of both races.
Ho did nut nso any languaga to incita
the negrcos during hia whole trip. JUo
was too smart for that. Soon after ho
disperjed the men under the command of
lloasor , ho loft his puty In charge of h's '
eon John and cnmo to Virginia to matura
his plans fi/r capturing the nrsonnl at
Hatiur'a Feiry and mnko his Iti-jad opin

reached Nottowny before the mon who
went with Col. Il3tser wore able to re
turn home After completing hia
joumeyings through south side Virginia ,
Brown wont north to secure for his attack -
tack on Harper's Ferry , which was made
in October , 1859. "
"Whin did you find out that it wns
John Brown who stopped at your
housa ? '
"I did not suspect it to bo him when
ho was at my housa , but nfter h's arrest
and execution there appeared eiihor In
Harper's or Frank Leslie's magazine ,
which I was subscribing to at the ttmo ,
the pictures of Brown nnd his party. My
little boy called my attention to tbo fact
that ono of those pictures resembled Dr
McLano. I tcnnncd the picture and saw
nuny points of rosemblenco , bat when
the trial came on nnd the evidence be
gan to develop it became known that
Brown had traveled through Virginia ,
under the iiaiua cf Dr. McLano. Gov
Wise wbo had interviews with the pris
oner , af crward told mo that John Brown
gave him a history cf his trip through
Vrirglniameiiti ( ning places whoru ho had
stopped , and said ho had epent two days
and nights at my house. "
Col. tCnight , editor of the Southera

Xow York Meicury ,
My profusion Isn't n popular one ; in
fict , then13 considcrablo prejudice
againat It. As for myself , I don't think
it's much we no than n tfaod m ny
otliers. However , that haa nothing to
do with my story. Some yeara ago mo
and tlio gentlemen , who was at that
tlmo connected with mo in business he's
mot with roycrses since then , and nt
prcacnt Isn't able to go out waa looking
around for a job , bolng nt that tlmo
rather hard up , ni yon might any Wo
struck a unall country town. 1 nln't '
agoln * to give it away by telling whcro
it waa or Till at Ilia narno of It waa.
There waa ( ono bunk there. There wasn't
another officer but the cashier , and they
had a boy who used to awocp out and
run orranda.
The bank was on the main ttroot ,
well up ono end of it n nlco snug place
on the corner of the atroot , with nothing
very near it.Vo took our observations
and found out there wasn't no if ublo at
nil about it. There was an old witch-
man that walked up and down the
atroois nights , when ho didn't
fall asleep nnd forgot it , The
\jmlt had two doors ; tbo onUldo
ono was chilled iron and had n throe-
wheeled combination lock ; the inner dear
was no door at all jou could pick it
open. It didn't pretend to bo nothing
but firo-proof , and it wam't oven thai.
The first thing wo done , of course , was to
Gt a key to tbo outoido door. As the
lock waa an old foshlonod Bacon lock ,
any gentleman of my profession who
chances to read this article will know just
how easy that job was , and how wo Cone
it. I may say hcra that the gentlemen
in my line of business , having at times a
grout deal of leisure timu on their hands ,
do considerable reading , and are particu
larly fond of a neat bit of writing. Jn
fast , ia the way of literature , 1 have
found among 'em however , this being a
digreition , 1 drcp it nod go on with the
main job again.
Thh was our plan : After the key was
fitted I was ta go into the bank and Jim
that wasn't hta name , of course , but lot
It pass was to kocp watch on the out
side. When any ono passed ho was to
tip mo a whistle , and then douse the
glim and lay loir. After lliuy got by 1
on again. Simple and easy , you
see.
see.Woll , the nip lit as wo selected the pres
ident happened to bo out of town ; gene
down to the city , as ho of tin did. 1 got
inside all right with a aliio lantern , a
breast drill , a steel jimmy , a bunch of
skeleton kos and a green baize bag to
stow the awoy. 1 fixed my light slid
rigged my breast drill and got to work on
the door right over tbo Iok.
Probably a great many of joar readers
are not so well posted as me about bank
locks , and I may i ay f < r thorn that a
throe-wheel combination lock has the
toteo wheels in it and a clot in each
who ? ! . In order to unlock the door you
have to got the three slots opposite each
other at the top cf the lock. Of course ,
if you know the number the lock is set
on you can do thir , but if you ilni't you
have to depend upon your Ingenuity.
There la In each of these wheels a small
hole , through which yon put a wire
through the back of the lock when you
cbat a the combination. Xow , if joa
can bore a hole through the door and
pick up these wheels by tunning a wire
through these holes , wly , yon can open
the door. I hop el may make myself clear.
I was boring that htle. The door wa
chilled iron ; about the neatest stuff levus
worked on. I went s'eady enough ; only
stopped when Jim which , as I add ,
wasn't hia real name whistled outside ,
and the watchman toddled by. By and
by , whoa I'd got pretty near through , I
heard Jim , so to speak , whistle again. 1
stopped , and pretty soon heard footsteps
outside , and I'm b'amci if they did not
come right up the lunkstcpp , and I hen , d
a key work lu the lock. 1 was BO dumb
founded whan I heard that that you
could h vo clipped the bracelets right on
me. I picked up my lautern , and I'll be
lunged if I didn't lee the alide dip down
and throw the light right on to the door
and I hero was the pies dint ! Instead of
calling for help , ss I ttiiu > lit ho would ,
lie slipped light Intido the door , and
ahadou hla eyei with hii baud luolcod at
mo. I knowed I ought to knock him
down and cut out , but I'm blest If 1
cogld , J was that Mi'prked.
"Who are you ? " auya ho.
"Who are yon ! ' saya I , thinking that
was an innocent remark , ai he commenced
t , and a trying all the tlmo ta collect
myself.
"I'm the praaident of the hank , " mid
ic , kinder thort ; "aomethlng'd the iua-
; er with the lock.1'
By George1 the idea came to mo then.
"Yep , sir , " eaya I , touching his cap.
"Mr. Jtniiings ho telegraphed this
uornlng as the lock was ont of order
and ho couldn't get in , and I'm conio to
op n it lor him.1'
"I told Jennings a week ajo , " eaya he ,
"that ho ought to got that lock fixed.

"Ho boon a writing letters ; and bo's

"Well , why don.'t you go righi en , "

"but I rather think it's n little worae mi
