THE CHASE. How the Queens County Hounds Went Yesterday. EOAD VIEWS. A Fast Run, Low Fences and Few Falls, with Nobody Hurt The Queens county honnda met yesterday, at New Casecl Wood, at tbe usual boar. Tbe day, though dull, raw and obeerless enough, proved an excellent 0110 for 'cross-country riding.

Tbero was a very lair Held or seventeen In all. Including one lady, wbo rode flnely, taking tbe jumps in good style. Tbe run, a pretty long one, tbongh a little complicated, was very satisfactory. Tbe paoe was brisk, but tbe fences as a rule were not very high. With tbeso conditions, and remembering tbe additional fact that the courso led over as pretty a piece of country as can be found on tbe whole Itland, one may readily imagine with what xest and pleasure tbe cbaso was pursued.

It was a drag bunt, but this eir. cumstance served by no means to diminish Interest In its pursuit. Indeed tbe majority of tbo Bold pressed forward as eagerly lor a prominont position as If each expected to be rewarded by tbe capturo of a brush. Horses and rldtrs seemed to tlud a pleasure In their exertions, tbe temperature being Just of too kind to tempt one to aetlvlty. Fortunately there wero very few mishaps, and tboss were of a trivial sort.

TUB X1BT. It was a comfortless, eold sort of morning and forenoon on Hempstead Plains Tbe long stretch ol flat country, nouseltss and uncultivated, spreading out eastward irom Miueola and Garden Olty, looked barren and lonosome enougn to banish from tbo liveliest lancy evory vestige of those bright and cheerful tho most lively Imagination could have conjured up. A dull eky lowered overhead, and tbe ohilling air, like a loretusto 01 approaching winter, oame with a nipping and eager Intrusion, prolonged sbruge boralding lie approach. People at Hempstead, Garden Olty, Mlneola and thereabouts were stirred to some activity as noon approached. Early Inncbes wore tbe order, aud at tbe hotel doers In those plaoes carriages stood Id waiting to start tor the neighborhood of New Caasel In time to reach tbo appotntod plice by one o'clock.

The Held, warned by the experiences of the previous Saturday, contrived to bo on tho spot a little ahead ot the hnntsman and his pack. At o'clock Mr. P. Gray Griawold with hie pets advanced to a little open patch of green Just south of the wood. There were already assembled the following P.

Loriilard, on Preston; Mr. W. E. Pest, on Beggar Maid; Mr. Clarence Levy, on Belle, with bis groom Oil Btormaway; Mr.

Frod Gobhard, on a blooky Utile chestnut; Mr. Townsend Perry, on a gray; Mr. Frost on his roan, Mr. It. Mortimer, on a dark bay borso; Mr.

Tloahurst on a chestnut and four or live oountry boys on weody screws with rusty saddles. Just after his arrival on lbs ground Mr. Grlswuld sent bis dogs Into the wood. Fltzpatrlck, tbo Whip, not being quite recovered Irom his receutlall, did not cast op yesterday. His place was taken by Tom Blono, Mr.

Center's man. About a dozen wegoua were on tbe ground. Jnst after the dogs bad enierod the wood Mr. Morgan and Miss Morgan advanced ou horseback to join In the sport. The drag had been laid to tbe eastward and the run at Qrst was consequently somewhat in the dlreotion of Hicksville.

It subsequently turned toward the north. While the horsemen pressed after the dogs, now on their way through tbo oover, the carriages and wagons, In one of which tho writer wus, having cnucluded thus to view the sport on this ocoasion, moved toward tbe road running oastwsrd. As the Urst crios of the scurrying pack sounded through tbo solitude of the wood there was a rush ahead ot wagons to bring the horsemen into view as thsy made Hit Urst dash into tbe open. Which way would they run f. Which was the best road to seloot to get a view Tbeso were the questions suggested to tbe occupants of the carriages while the horsemen were speculating on tbe height and still'noss of the loncea they were to encounier.

Here auu there a dog was aoen meanwhile, plungiug through tho cover, encouruged by tho Huutsiuun's urging words to Gamester aud Ransom and Regulator, to Princess and 6 port eon and tho rest ol tbo lot, which wero now steadily advancing toward tho outer edgo ol the wood ou the east side. tuky'kh ovf. With loud cries and iu a sweeping gallop the pack, running well together, were presently seen charging Into the open, Mr. Uriswold at their heels and the Held in a bunch, some fifty yards beb Ml bun. As the nogs emerged from tbo wood the pace increased considerably.

Mr. l'eet drew oul Irom the ruck, uud directly alter Mr. Uriswold took the OrsL fences considerably ahead ot the other horsemen. The whip's same that got such uu ualy iall with Fitzpatrick last all bis fencos at Urst, as if rendered uinld ly tils late experiences. He aiiorward cleared them, aud when be warmed to bis work scouted to regain coutldcuce uud do much better.

His bad example at tbo siurt resulted iu pretty long hue ol protests, whtob disappeared speedily, bowovor, under the correction of whip and spur. In tho third or lourth Held oulurod ulter the start several ol tho foremost horses of the lot following Mr. Uriswold aud Mr. Poet turned tall on a lence not unite lour foel nigh, but Dressed ou whsn rah bud been removed. ON TUB ROAb.

The course at this distance laid toward the northeast, and it wus evident It would soon become a problem to us on the road how to keep the chase in view. Tbe lino ol country tbo dogs were approaching was billy and pretty well wooded in parts and we commenced to grow anxious. 1 he comuioucciiieni ol the run looked so pretty, and we enjoyed the view so inocb, we were very loath to lose It. While thus rctlectiug we saw them working speodily to the north, In a lino about midway between Jcricno Post Olllco and old Wesibury Post Ofllce. At Urst tbe aegs commenced to grow "small by degrees and benutilully loss;" men tbey totally disappeared.

Next the horses began to lessen in their proportions until they hud become almost as smaii to our yearning Vision as the dogs were a while betore. Through lue bare irocs wo auw their fleeing luring got small and tinaiier us they sped on Iu tbe ctiusc; wo suw tbem bob-bobbing ovur lonces uud scudding iilnng Hie open till all at onoe tbo hills mid intervening irecs sbut out the view, aud while the cbaso wont one way went another, with tlist mdcHcribuDlu sensation one experiences wbo, having sil his attention centred lit one object, tlnds It suddenly dlsuppear from his gaze, leaving Inm to open bis eyes on surroundings which in bis disappointment ho bus concluded to And dlstaslclul. We grew gloomy at tho barrenness of the prospect eprosd before ua, nod with mingled lootings ol expectancy and disappointment hastened to the nearest road loading uortu to tee the mini once more il possible. It is not until wo bad gono several miles, nowever, through around by Jericho and then westward that our eyos wore gluddeliod by uuotnor glimpse of tho bpeodtng Id. Mcuhlirnu the hounds Uud doubled, but us we approached wore nguln moving northward, ilelore striking down on their southerly course tho dogs had run fid well fluid had boco.no pretty well strucg out.

Those who endeavored to loliow straight were theroloru running south alter tbo dogs, while tbo slower ones wore going northward. Boon the dogs turned eastward, unu this movement brought the Held pretty close together agaiu. About a mile east ol Jeriuho they crossed tho turnpike road una rsu up tho bill ou tbo north side ol the road. At mis point Miss Morgau gsllopod by our carriages across tbe road, her borso well In hnud and inking her lonces Iu good form. Mr.

I.ovey also redo by us ou his mare, she jumping prettily and llio young horse ul her side. Mr. Levey's groom waa again unfortunate enough to get a itlie full yesterday, but, as ou tbu provious day, ho cume oil unhurt. For about au eighth of inilo the oiii.se led up a rather high hill, beyond tho crest ol winch the Horsemen would disappear again, leaving us to regret ibeir hosiy departure I.iko some welcome vision that too swiftly vanishes we had to content ourselves with buvlng seeu thoin once agaiu a little while. And than nu mure.

In sottio other parts of the oounty a much butter view ol tbu chase could ho procured Irom tho roads thau wo obtained between tho bills aud groves that mark the country Mini tins beautilUi place lor a ruu, uud Hie glimpses we caught of yesterday's clniso were suggestive ol au Interesting hum, and one well worth lot.owing on the rouds cou.d good view hare boeu obtained to repay una lor the Ventura. TUB nmsu. A hurried ruu to the northward by tho flrsl ro.id crossing the turnpike brought us to a bill nuie to the east ol the one Just crossed by tbe humors. From this polul, however, no view was obleiiinble ol the hold, and, Willi some more regrets, wo turned our incos lowaru itio Kminoi, uear which wo arrivtd shortly alter three o'clock in Uiu ailcrnonn, alter a steady jog ol soino lour or (ivo mnes. The hunters had already returned, and wo learned that the chase hud endeu Jual beyond the lull, Ibo grimier part ol the fluid bolus up ul llio lllnsh.

Wo also learned HiaSibore had not kcon any accidents. Mr. I'eet's maro hud stumbled over a big lence, throwing hur rider on bis shoulder, which was still marked with roO clay, but inflicting nu ol any consequence. Mr. Loriilard bad also had a utile cropper, I'restun having coinu to his knees alter going over one of Hie lances nu the hill.

Nobody had been liurlund everybody wassatlstled with liieruo. had been sumo sharp gsllups la which Preston more speed loan anv other home in the Hold, but very tew bigb jumps were met to puzzle perplez thuee new to the epori with the Quceua county com i so svzsts. Tbe hurdle race lor hunters will take place at Huntington on Tuesday. There will probably be live or alz entriea. The next uieet ol the bounda will be at Huntington on Wednesday, at tt)e uauitl one o'olock I'.

who bni beeu tolling around the ruunlug track at Lilliebridge night and day during the paat tlx weeks, brought sell-Imposed taak to a successful termination ou Saturday afternoon (October 6), and ta now ine tiero of a feat unparalleled In the annate ol peuostrianism. Previous to the appearanoe In thla country oi Weston long distance walkiug woe luuulged in. and such team of physical enduruoco ua tnoae to whloh wo unve ol late boon treated were extremely rare. The aix dsys' match at the Agn. cultural Hall between O'Leary and Weaton wua productive of perlormnncea which few months previously would have been deemed Impossible, lluoh waa written at the time In praise of these two transatlantic rivals, and the only event which could be compared to their wonderful walk waa the laiuoua 1,000 miles match ol Captain Barclay, which took place at Newmnrkei to lar hack as 1800.

That marvollous Scotch athlete backed hiraaelf lor TWO guineas to walk 1,000 miles in 1,000 hours, walking one mile during each bour. Ue waa succesaful lu hie attempt, although bia victory waa in a groat measure due to his procuring longer Intervals of reat by walkiug two miles ut one start, beginning at tbo third quarter of one hour aud contiuulug with the next mile without stopping. Even then his victory was nothlug like a certainty during the last day, aud pistols had to ba bred at bis eurs to keep him uwako while walking. lhe gailaut captain had uoarly eight months' preparatory training before beginning tho task, and sumo Idea of tbq arduous ualuro of It may be gathered trom tho (act that he lost upward of two stoue tu weight during Its accomplishment. Muuv have aince laid claim to baviug aucceaalully perlortued a similar fast but a properly uutueuticaied record could uever be furnished.

It does Stem curious tbat wbat remained lor upwuru oi lull a century unequalled should now he eusily surpassed, aud mat by a person wuose appearance and do not point to aibletio excellence in their owner. But facts are stubborn tilings and cauuot be got over Cupiuiu Barclay, inaguiiicotji specimen of ine humu, upward of six lest in height aud wuigniug lag pounds, wnou thirty yesrs of age walked l.ObOtuiieg in 1.0UU uours.

A CHEATED SAVINGS BANK. CROOKED MANAGEMENT BT 1TB TllEASOHEB DISCOVERED TOO THB DEPOSITORS HAVE BEEN HOllHKD. 'i'ELEGRAI'IX TO THE HERALD. North Bkiihjkwatku, Oct. 27, 1877.

It le now some olght moulbs since tho attoutlon of tho public was called to tho condition of tho North iirtdgewater Savings Bank. The treusurer, Kdward Moutbwortb, having died, tho trustees commenced an investigation of tho affairs ol the Institution, which, up to this time, enjoyed the highest couhdenco or tho community. Mr. Soilthworth was regarded as a men ol unlmpoachehlo integrity, and was considered by good Judges to be worth $100,000. Tho invoatigaHon developed the laot that the hank was short ot $0,000 und that securities ot tbo bauk wore unpaired to the ainouut of about $10,000.

Tho trustees were led to believe that tho assets were Impaired to the extent In round numoors of $26,000. They tlurolore requested the Gourd of Bunk Commissioners to institute an oxatninattou ol tho bank, which was Uoue. Tho rosuit ol that investigation tallied so nearly with that ol tho truateos that It was considered advisable by all parties to apply lor a temporary injuuotion, which was granted. The trustees, by the advice ol the commissioners, socured the sorvitee or an export to examine into tho details ol the accounts, uud the hooks of depositors were called In. This latter Investigation has uocessurily occupied a long lime, aud has Just boen completed.

Tho report oi the export shows the amuuut due depositors hy their books to he $547,948 29, while the books of the bauk showed tho to be only $520,485 41, leaving a deficiency of $27,457 88. In udditinu to this mcro are contingent liabllili-a amounting to $4,840 92, thus In creasing the liabilities ot tho bank to a total of $552,790 21.

Mouthworlh, the lato treasurer, and nguiusl the Urin ol Dunbar Ik of which he was a member, that both estates are so much Involved that tbo amount to on realized on tbe claims ol $53,318 IV will be very small.

Add to tine a probuhlo loss ou personal and re.il estate loans tbe total lots to the depositors will amount to $80,000. now riik aitauknt urns hah urowx. In oxpluiiation ol the difference between tue present exhibit uud the apparent condition ol tho hank at tho time ol thn death of Mr. Moutbwortb, it must he said that the amuuut ol $27,457 88, as well as the coutiugent amount ol $4,890 42 did not appear upon tho hooks ol the bank. Add to tbo apparent deficiency of at tho uuio ol the first investigation, a probahlo uddllloual loss ol soiuelbiug over $20,000 on securities, in which, although oouihworib'e name does nut appear, lie was directly Interested, aud wo have the total Joss ol $80,000, as above elated.

During the lime that Mr. Mouthwortli wan treasurer ol the bank he was also doing a brokerage business as member ol the firm ol Dunbar Ik Co. About seven years ago an olll ol Hie bank scovnred that Dunbar who had an otlloe iu the bank buildiug, were rocoiving deposits ou wlioq they were paylug six per cent internal, wuilo the bauk was paying ouly five per oout. People wore led to believe tbat when tbdy deposited ihoir "money with Dunbar Co. aud received a book their deposits were as secure as if they had been placed in the hunk.

The firm Issued three forms ol books to depositors, one ol wnIcn wae ii regular North Bndgewaler Mayings Bank book, with the letter marked ou It; uuolbcr waa siylod tho "North Uridgewater savings und Roan Oltico, K. Mouihwortu, treasurer," and the third was "Duuoar Co." At tun tlmo of the death of Mouthwortli these several deposit hooks represented about $10,000, hut to what extent the trausactious of the firm wore Carried Is unknown, as holn parlies urcduad.

Their itivcetnieuis iu the We.il amounted to $70,000, hearty ail ot which was lost irretrievably. At the decease ul Dunbar Vlr. Boulbworlh settled tils estate, assuming tue W'sirru investments to be good and paying ibe heirs their portions. Tho aOcurltiee proved to ho iilumst worthiest, end Mouthwortli was obliged to look lor aid. ItKM'JSit HIMaHLV.

HOW TIIH HAXK WAS UMIU HV eOllTMWORTH.
