The engineer then pulled (ho train into Otterville, a half mile distant, where a part of the crew were left to arouse the sheriff and organize a posse to pursue the robbers. The news ol the robbery was telegraphed to the headquarters at St. Louis and all the available detective forco of the road was sent to "Robbers' Cut." The Sheriff's posso and the iletcctives are now scouring the country for the robbers. The exact amount of money and valuables stolen cannot be learned, but it is understood the money in the safe aggregated about .$7r>,UOO, mostly in paper money, and that the other valuable properly amounted to about .$15,000. The robbers are unknown.Kansas City, Jhi. Aug. 17.—The safe ot the I'di-illc Express Company was robbed of $!X),tJOU in train roblters on the Missouri 1'ueiiic Railroad this morning. The train, which wa- the lvausas City Limited Express >'o. 3 left Tipton, Mo., about ;i a. 111. Two mysterious figures were seen by the engineer lurking around the forward end of the train, but no particular attention was paid to them. Just after leaving Tipton, the Ihenutn turned toward the tender to lire up the engine and looked squarely into the lmiz/.Io of two revolvers in the hands ot two masked men who were lying on their taces on top of the coal. One of the bandits covered the lireman with his revolver while the other took care of tbeengineer. They were told to throw up their hands and the engineer ordered to run to the < ktervillo water tank in "llobber's Cut," just Easl of Otterville. When "'Robber's Cut" was reached, the engineer wa-- commanded to go to the express car and tell the messenger to open the door, llo did so under the threat of death if he should fail. When he reached the express car he found the two robbers had five confederates stationed at convenient places about the car, all heavily armed and their faces concealed behind masks. He walked to the door of the express car and called to the express messenger, Sam Avery, to open the door. Avery, suspecting liodanger, pushed back the door. As he did sb the leader of the robbers and one confederate pushed their revolverill and ordered the messenger to hold lip his hands. Tho order was promptly obeyed, and three of the robbers jumped into the car. Avery was commanded to open the safe and at the point of tho revolver did so. One of the robbers unfolded a sack, and into it were placed the entire contents of the sale. The robbers then made their escape without attempting to molest the passengers. llClliOM llfiO Silfl Xt» jH'JU'IllllCltf. Mr. Jameson came to New York from St. Louis in lrtGo with his brother-in-law, Amos Cotting, since defeased. Each is said to have brought $1,600,000 as the profits of a dry goods business. A brokerage business was opened on "Wall Btreet, and at lirst the firm belonged to the open board of brokers, and latterly to the Stock Exchange. The other members of the lirm are F. N. Jones and A. P. Smith. Mr. Jameson was a man of domestic tastes, and was regarded as a conservative and prudent financier. His business is said to bo iu good shape. Nothing was found to indicate the cause of the act. Mr. Jameson was taken sick three months ago and was still weak, when three weeks ago he was taken with throat trouble. The latter ailliotion was so serious that Prof. E. S. Janoway was kept in close attendance. The trouble increased, and physical pain may have resulted in a sudden fit of insanity. Mr. Jameson was last soen alive at 5 p. m. on Saturday. In the absence of his wife and family he had been stopping with his sister, Mrs. Cotting. The latter is at the Isle of Wight. Mrs. Jameson and her youngest son, Miner; 17 years old, are at Scarborough beach. The two sons, Addison, the eldest, a widower, ,'SS years old, and Alexander, 28 years old, and a daughter, Mrs. Thomas L. Mansou, were spending Sunady pt their father's farm at Clinton Corners, eight miles from I'oughkeepsie and the second daughter, Mrs. Murphy, widow of Richard G. Murphy, Jr., son of the ex-collector of the Port, was at Klberon N. J. Mr. Jameson returned home at five o'clock Saturday, called a servant, Kate Purcell, and after passing a remark "that it was a light day down town," said he would go to his room and rest. He went and was not seen alive again. Ho did not appear to day, and becoming alarmed the servant called a Park policeman. The aotiug police captain entered the broker's rooms through the one unlocked door. He found the body of Mr. Jameson hanging with a sheet around his neck, one end tied to the knob. The suicide had knelt so as to bring strangulation quickly and his knees almost touched the lluor. The millionaire had evidently disrobed with the intention of retiring for the night before tho awful impulse seized him. lie was clad only in nightshirt and drawers. Superintendent. Jen leu, of the Murray Hill Hotel, a near friend of the deceased, took charge of the funeral arrangements. New York, Aug, 17—In tho |>»Utial residence of Mrs. Amos Cluing, K15 Fifth Avenue, this afternoon was found the body of John H. Jameson, the Broad street broker and banker. He had hanged himself from a bed-room door in his tine snit« of rooms in the fourth floor rear. Mr. Jameson was reputed a millionaire aiul was the stock exchange niembei < f the firm of Jameson, Smith A Co., bankers and brokers at Exchange place ami Broad street. The second member of t!«> firm is James D. Smith, Commodoro of the New York yacht club. Mr. Jameson's family are out of town, and from what can be learned from his friends, temporary insanity caused by illness and perhaps aggravated by the feeling of loneliness in the absence of his family, is thought to have been the cause of the tragedy.

TORRENCE, The Original and Popular One Price Glofiiiir [Successor to North & Morris.] CLAYTON WORTH, VENN9 A [London MoHpitiit.l A little conversation overheard one evening seems to indicate that a sea voyago is not always the happiest way of spending one's honeymoon : "Darling, aie you better ?" says lirst turtle dove. "No, dearest, worse! What is the use of having a doctor on board who cannot care seasickness, darling ?" A significant pans \ "It is absurd," siys the first turtle dove again. "But ho .v foolish not to spend our honeymoon 011 shore, dearest! I am sure we shall never enjoy it here."

It abounds with lish of the finest llavor, although we could not testify to the personally as our experience did not lie la [hat direction. One mini, however, amused us very much "by his quaint and far-fetched sentences. Speaking of growing infirmities he remarked, "I declare I grciv foolier and l'oolier every day," and when he saw the little children iu groups scat tered through the grove, remarked to a friend, "I am glad to see that some people are determined to Canton is one of the most beautiful villages in northern Pennsylvania. It is located in the midst of a rich agricultural district, and is distinguished for moral and religious tone that pervades all classes, and the lovely homes that one meets everywhere. Prank Mayo, the eminent actor, resides here. Panuy Davenport, the much married aotress, bus a beautiful residence just out of town, and while she may bore ceived, and fawned upon by so-called society elsew here she finds little sympathy with what she is pleased to style, "the unsophisticated lustics of Canton." The Davenport family also live here and are respected as good citizens, as are the Mayos. It was our good fortuue to be present at au orgau recital in the Presbyterian Church iu Canton, couducted by Miss Louise Brown, of Eluiira, N. V. The Church had just purchased a new pipe organ and the recital was the first exhibition We reached Canton, our hrst stopping place, at la a. in., and received u warm welcome from old friends. We found that some changes had taken place during the year, and some faces were gone which we shall see no more on this side of Heaven, but it was joy ful to meet so many to whom we ministered so long in the years that have flown, Dkar Spirit.—Well, here we are among the hills of Bradford County—Onr tent is pitched for the time iu the beautiful valley of Sugar Creek, a few mius! eaat of the famous city of Troy, not thi Troy from which the ancient Helen was Abducted by the bad boys of Attioa, but a Troy of more recent date, and which contains many damsels of beauty that would put the daughters of Leda to shame. We are directly in the shadow of Mt. Pisgah. Don't mistake this for the mountain upon whose Summit, the Hebrew stood, when he "viewed the landscape o'er," but an elevation in this county, exceeding all others in northern Pennsylvania. It is 2,500 feet above sea level and from its summit on a clear day one can take iu an extent of territory wonderful in extent and mavelous in beauty. From the observatory oan be plainly seen the the University buildings at Ithaca, 40 miles to the northward ; and eastward, westward, and southward, are unrolled vast stretches of the most fertile and beautiful sections of New York and Penusylyania. Mt. Pisgah is a great resort for hay fever patients, and yon will find during the season, "ady dumber" of people afflicted with that "balady." We have made the ascent several times in the years agone, and so shall not risk the danger of sunstroke, in this hot season by attempting to climb. Our journey so far has been pleasant. Some amusing things came into notice during our trip, as always occur to those whose eyes and oars are open for them. One old lady nicely dressed iu silk, with gold bowed spectatles, came aboard the train somewhere about Brockwayville, who seemed wonderfully fidgety and nervous. She was on the lookout for "Klnsey's bridge." Her niece had told her so much of "Kinsey's bridgo," she wanted to see it, and did'ut want to miss the sight. She wondered if Mr. Kiusey owned the bridge or had sold it, ifcc. When the train reached the great Kinzua Viaduct t o honest old lady looked down at the 1' ilding below, and all the grandeur of scenery, the wonder of enginery were lost to her in her curiosity to know if "Mr. lvinsey lived in that shanty way down there."
