A LOVS FOR SOLITUDE ONK OF HIS WRITER FOR MANT PUBLICATION8.

Frentloe Mulford, well known in New-York ao4 California ue a uewspaper man and philoaophical writer, waa fopnd dead in a canoe in the lower part of Sheepshead Ilay on Saturday afternoon. For several daya the canoe, which waa covered by a white canvuaj awning, had heen noticed drifflng about ainilesaly, and on Saturday afternoon a boat nuin, impelled by curlosity, rowed toward it and found it to all appearanrea deserted. The canoe had ita name, White Crow," painted on the bow. On closer exami nation the Ixidy of a mnn, lying at full length in the bottom of the little eraft. waa diacovered, life evidently having heen extinct for aoveral days.

Tlie man's face swollen and hloody about the mouth, but no marlcs of blows were disoernlble, wbile the condltlon of the face waa aa might eaaily rtyult from several daya' exposure to tlie weat her. In the boat were a oomplete outlit for oarnp ing, a amall stove, cooking utensils, a saw, and a supply of provisiona. In a box in the bow of the boat were found a banjo, writing terials, nn empty cigar-case, and some pagea of brown paper covered with wriring. The police were Iramediately informed, and Deputy Coroner A. E.

Stilwell, of Gravesend, took charge of the body, which yestorday afternoon waa idenriiled by F. J. Needhani, publisher at No. 32 Four as that of Prentice Mulford. The body was at, first thought to be thnt of Mr.

Needham, owing to a wliite paper writing-pad found in the boat with Mr. Neerlham's business address printed on it, on which Mulford had been writing. Lnst June Mulford returned from Calitornia and aaaumed the editorship of The White Cross Li brary," a monthly mngazine "showing how resulte may be ohtained in all Imsineas and art through tlie force of thought and silent power of mind," of which F. J. Needham is Mulford spent most of his time with the Needham family and mnde their house his home while in this -city.

Monday he annoiinced tliat he was about to spend a month or two in his canoe, cruUing aboul around New-York Dej and gradually working hla wuy along Long Island Sound to Sag Ilarbor, Mul ford's birthplace, which he expected to reach hy July 1, when Mr. Needham was to join him. When Mulford was seen la.st Monday he was in perfect health. This was the last the Needhams heard of him until they read the announcements in Sunday'a papers of the body of an unknown man being found in a canoe drifting in Sheepshead Bay. The ing-pad with Ncedham's address pfinted on it.

together with other articles found in the canoe, convinced them that it was the body of Prentice Mulford. Mulford had retiring dlsposition and was in the hahit of getting off to some lonely plafc- and writing down his thoughts. He frei.uetitly wrote there solilociuies as if he were talking to himself, or rather us if Ue pa-sessed two iR'rsonalities. On the brown paper found in the boat was f.mud wrib ing which he penr.ed evidently only a few hotira liefore he died. These are the hst words ha wrote: With me you have a perfeetly healthy mind, and you eannot have one elisewhere.
