E. LAMBERT, General I'assenger Agent, 5 Vanderbilt av. New York. foregone conclusion, tho only strange feature of them all bomg that but one ghost has found seclusion and an abiding place within its walls, the tale of whoso annual visitations lias been handed down from generation to generation. Tradition recites that upon the anniversary of tho Battle of Long Island, when midnight spreads its Btillness around and wraps the old house and its occupants in silence, in storm or calm, in inky darkness or moonlight glow, the heavy clanking of tho spurred and booted foot of a soldier was heard slowly stalking from a chamber above down the winding stair into the ball bo low and on past tho pictures hanging on the walls out into tho night beyond.

Tradition goes further and strongly hints that this mysterious midnight visitor is no less a personage than the departed semblance of Lord Howe, who, dressed in his regimentals, comes buck, each year to revisit the scones of Long Island's battle field. Down with the story of this supernatural visitor comes one of a more gentle kind in which a fair daughter of the house, captivated by a manly heart, although its owner wore the trappings of her country's foe, forsook the shelter of tho paternal roof and, with that courage and love for wliich the colonial maiden has ever been renowned, followed her new found husband to Nova Scotia, where he had obtained a land grant from his sovereign. It is also said that from overy generation of this old Bergen family has a daughter eloped, and often has the old locust tree on the the waiting lover as he listened for the signal from the window of his lady love above. On the pane of a particular window in one of tho chambers in the second story, from which, by the way, many of the love lorn maidens are supposed to have been lifted by the strong arms ami true of the gallant Lothario, poised upon the topmost rungs of a ladder, are a number of closely written lines, engraved upon the glass by the diamcpd, which the waiting maiden bad doubtless carried hidden in her heart as a token of the constancy of he who would probably soon appear, and from probably a more prosaic though no less worthy motive, to escape the vigilance of the paternal eyo. While tho maidens of the Bergen line were far famed for their wondrous beauty and many graces, the sons were noted for hardihood and courage.

One night, when darkness had fallen upon the bosom of the bay, a number of the sturdy sons of Bergen armed themselves, and, going down the grassy slope to the shore entered their waiting skiff and, rowing noislessly to the black hulk of a war ship riding at anchor far out from land, suddenly pounced upon the sleeping crew, and ere they could he prevented, earned off some of tho Hessian officers aboard and quickly rowed away to the headquarters of the American Army, near Perth Amboy, in Jersey, where the prisoners were turned over amid milch rejoicing on the part of the boys from the old house under the locust tree. But the scenes and events of love and war were not alone the only things for which the Bergen mansion was noted. Directly facing the west the house stood upon a slight eminence which sloped to the water edge, witli a gradual decline. Here on this grass covered bank could the setting sun be seen, bathing the placid waters of the bay and falling with mellow softness upon the hills of Jersey, tinting the bright green of their foliage with a thousand gold and scarlet hues, or glistening like spun glass upon the snow clad slopes and icy waters. From far ami near came Long Island's people to partake of tho Bergen hospitality and enjoy the sunset which glowed upon a scene of quiet grandeur and beauty but seldom surpassed.

Among the delicacies which always regaled tho dinner at the Bergen table were the oysters and soft clams taken from Gowanus Bay, almost at the very door. All the year round were the fish nets out, yielding an abundant supply of tish of all kinds. Oysters there were iu those old colonial days of enormous si.e, and the Indians have often brought to the door of tho white man bivalves whose length reached twelve inches, taken from Gowanus Bay, and shells of that size have been seen by old inhabitants up to recent times. Long before what is now Third avenue was even a trail through the forest the fierce Winte gales from the northeast lashed tho waters of the bay into fury, lifted the spray high iu air against the house, where, freezing, it formed a solid coat of ice over door and window. The bay has been tilled in now, the forests have disappeared, the old house has fallen and on every hand are the evidences of progress which so surely mark this latter half of the Nineteenth Century.

The change is one which must come, yet in the hurry and bustle of tho to day it is pleasant to revisit in imagination the scenes that have been in a house which has so long stood as a monument to the memory of one of Brooklyn's lirst pioneers.

It Stood Directly in the British Line of Battle. For Two Hundred Years Hospitnli tics Were Dispensed Beneath Its Hoof Its Romances mid Its Ghosts The Resort of Wit and lions Vivants of Revolutionary Buys Hone Willi Its Rambling Wings and Gabled Roof. Far back in the envly part of the Seventeenth Century, when the tirst hardy Duteli pioneers conceived the idea of yettlintf on the shores of Long Island, the human tide drifted to the riyht of what iu now the most populous section of the city, toward the fair shores of Gowanus, or, as it xras then called, Gomvanus, liny and to tho left to the Wallabout. At theao two points were the firet land grants taken, and the hardy Hollander commenced the of two new nettlenients far apart, the bare possibility of their once bciutf united probably formiuK but little food for his conjecture. On tho left of Third avenue, as one journeys toward Fort Hamilton, between what will some day be Thirty third and Thirty fourth xtroi ts, there now stands an old stone foundation upon tho terrace some feet abovo the level of the roadway, guarded by a gnarled and an.

cient loeuft troo, upon which tho storms and rams of nearly four centuries have beaten, a tree under whose branches stood one of the iirst houses ever built in Brooklyn and in whose shade have played the children of some seven generations of one family. In its bark is carved many an ancient monogram and the arrow pierced heart rudely cut in its shaggy coat tells the same old story of love. The moonbeams peeping through its brandies have looked on many a plighted troth and the night winds whispering through the leaves have been hushed in silence at the impassioned words of the same old story. As if to shield it from the ravages of wind and storm, a huge trumpet creeper twined its arms about it long ago and with it grew to niighty Bize. The tree is probably tho largest of its kind upon Long Island and has for centuries been a landmark, having been mentioned in the original grants and deeds imide by the Indians.

Up to within a few weeks this fuuudation under the locust tree supported an old frame house with porches front and back, two stories high, with rambling wings and gabled roof, built in Kiti t. Time had failed to impair its sturdy strength, and the oaken timbers of its frame, ax hewn and roughly joined, were almost as sound when taken down as when standing in their native forest. The original grant of the land on which the house was built was made about 1 000 by the Indians and confirmed by the Dutch, to one Michael Hansen Van Uorgen, a descendant of Hans Hansen Van 3ergen, then residing in the settlement on Manhattan Island. The iirst foundation was square and the building upon it of like form. In 1700 tho lirst addition was made and subsequently various wings and alterations were made and added.

Upon tho roof were found three separate layers of old hand made cedar and hemlock shingles which had been put on as occasion demanded, fastened with old wrought iron nails, whose making meant many a day of toil at the forge and anvil. The original building contained the diningroom, hall and two other smaller rooms, which in later years were added to by parlors and bedrooms. As time went on tho land adjacent was gradually cleared into one of the largest plantations on the Island, and under tho reign of Tunis Bergen, the successor of Michael Hansen, the old house became a famous residence of the wita and bon vivants of colonial days. Many a company sat down to discuss tho viands which came smoking from the old Dutch oven, large enough to roast an ox in, while the mulled cider and spirits added a mellow tint to the rough hewo rafters above and made the tlamcs of the tallow dips dance horn pipes on the walls around. Old Tunis Bergen, known as the Squire, was a personage of no small conseijnence, and was particularly noted for his faultless attire, it be iag said that he would never wear hose in which tlie least sign of usage was apparent, or in which a rent had been darned.

The house stood directly in the British line of battle, being just south of the old King's Highway, and for seven years prior to the evacuation of New York was used as a headquarters by the British ofiicers, and among its quaint furnishings were many relics of those stormy times, such as bayonets, swords and musket balls. It is supposed that in its chambers were written the old comedy of the "Battle of by General Burgoyne, which was afterward played at the old King's Head tavern, which then stood on the lane now known as Fulton street. On the walls of the broad hall there hung, until tho bouse was taken down, three oil paintings supposed to have been done by one of the British ofiicers while stationed in the house, and by him left in his hurried flight to Join Ins ship at the conclusion of the war. One of these paintings is of the then Prince of Wales, who afterward became William IV, and was at the time a midshipman in the British Navy. A painting of a court lady holding iu her hand a cornucopia or horn of plenty, and a scone from the "Battle of the Spurs" were mcludod in the collection.

East of the house was the kitchen garden, where bloomed nearly the whole year round quaint, old fashioned tlowers, which under the shady trees formed a pretty sitting for the kitchen which has recently been removed to Prospect Park, where it now stands just as it stood generations ago, with many of tho old cooking utensils am furniture used in times long past. The kitchen is of ax hewn timbers and boards, with the huge fireplace of stone and Holland brick, in which the rusty crane still hangs. The doors are divided horizontally into two sections, as are many of those in the house itself, and tho shingles are yet in fair condition, though having seen many years of service. The floors of the house were all of hard wood: the windows tilled with tiny squares of glass, in one alone there being as many ns twenty four panes. Through the center ran a broad hall, the banisters and stairs being of curious workmau Rliip.

In nearly every room was there the wide fireplace, about which tha old Dutch tiling formed a border, many of the tiles being impressed with strange Hcriptural scenes by some of the early Dutch artists, such as likenesses of the prophets, one in particular being the inspiration of Jeremiah, in which the inspiration is portrayed as a broad beam of light coming from heaven all very prosaic and curious. In the kitchen the rough beams of the ceiling are blackened and stained to an obony hue by the smoke from the lire and oven. The furnishings and utensils with which the house nai oure tilled were gradually taken away by the moving venerations, yet there are still retained bv the deseendents of tho family many of the old tilings which once made up its life. Among them are odd bits of crockery, bowls and pewter plates, an old silver tankard with massive cover in which was warmed the cider before the hickory lire, bears the date of I (iOO, together with round bowled spoons from Holland and the old iron cooking ovens which were pushed open gide to the fire and tho contents baked and browned to the housewife's delight and pride. Some valuable pieeos of china also remain, among which are teacups of line blue delft, very small, without saucers or handles, made in China and brought to this country from Holland.

An old waflle iron bears date of 174 0 and must have been used for such interesting occasions as wedding breakfasts, as stamped in the iron is a heart pierced with an arrow. An old mortar and pestle tells of ponndi herbs and roots and the old shoemaker's bench and tools brine to mind the tired little feet which needed shooing so often or the heavy boot of the soldier as he clanked about the aanded floors with jingling spurs. An old conch shell, to whose tip so many lips have been pressed, was long the signal for the midday meal or evening repast, which, blown upon, sounded mellow and resonant far out over tho plantation where the slaves were at work. Underneath the house were immense cellars containing great vatH and bins for the holding of ines, cider and the Winter stores of fruits and vegetable, and yet again was there a subcellar or dungeon further aground whose darkness and narrow stone stairway, with no ray of light and only ventilation through a narrow shaft reaching above, might Hlrongly suggest clanking chains and hopeless confinement for malefactors of the stem old colonial law. For was not the lord and master of the house a high and mighty magistratethe squire? To ins keeping and tender mercies was intrusted the care of the malefactor or wrong doer.

That such an ancient structure should bo surrounded by a halo of wystioltalea and lea ends is a ONU ISLiAJJD UAILKOAli. TRAINS LEAVE FI.ATBUSH AV. DEPOT. A. M.
