THE DAILY EXAMINER, (CHARLOTTETOWN, JULY 3,

YORKTO‘N N MAN USC! iPTS.

Papers That felate tothe Siege and Sur- render of the Town.

Curiously enough, after 115 years, a collection of manuscripts relating to the siege of Yorktown has recently turned up in Paris. These comprise a contemporary copy of Count de Ro- chambeau’s own diary from the time the French armies left the Hudson, the 15th of August, to the surrender of Yerk- town, on the 19th of Octeber, 1781. companying this, written by a diffcrent band, but inclosed in the same cover, is a diary of the siege by one of the en- gineer officers and a most beautifully executed manuscript map in colors of Yorktown and vicinity.

The siege and surrender of Yorktown were one of the most important events in the history of America. Many ac- coants by different eyewitnesses are ex- tant, manuscript and printed, perhaps the most valuable of all being the diary of George Washington, the original manuscript of which is at the state de- partment at Washington. After Wash- ington, perhaps the most trustworthy account would be that of Count de Rochambeau. It is known that he was very careful to keep copies of his cor- respondence, both for himself and for the department of war in France, but his diary of the Yorktown campaign was never published until it was included

Ac-

‘ in Doniol’s great compilation of docu-

ments relating to the gaining of Amer- ican independence, published about ten years ago, under the auspices of the French government, and even to this day it has never been printed, except greatly abridged, in English. A small part of it appeared in the Gazette de France a few days after the news of the surrender reached Paris, and this abridgment was translated and published in English in the Pennsylvania Gazette and in Al- mon’s Rernembrancer shortly after.

The day after the surrender Rocham- beau sent acopy of his journal by the hand of the Duke de Lauzun to the French minister of war, Segur, and a week later duplicate dispatches were sent in another ship, the Count de Deux-Ponts being the bearer. These two officers had shown the most courage in the siege and were thus rewarded. The existence is not known of either of these original dispatches.

A copy of Rochambeau’s journal is in the French archives in Paris, and an- other, Rochambeau’s own, probably, is in the library of the department of state in Washington, procured with the Ro- chambeau papers bought by the United States government from the heirs of Count de Rochambeau. It may be, and, indeed, it seems quite probable, that this series of manuscripts which has been recently discovered and which has been secured by Messrs. Dodd, Mead & Co. of New York city are the original papers which were carried over by Count de Deux-Ponts. They are not, however, in his autograph, but in that of some unknown person, probably a clerk.

The map which accompanies ‘these two manuscripts is on a large scale and most beautifully drawn by an expert, no doubt one of the French engineers, and it seezns probable that it was drawn to accompany official dispatches to the French government. There is no dupli- cate of it among the many maps in the Rochambeau collection. —St. Louis Re- public.

Genghis Khan’s Deminions.

Mrs. Mary Shears Roberts, in her se- ries of ‘Historic Dwarfs’’ in St. Nich- olas, writes of Casan, who was in the service of Genghis Khan. Mrs. Roberts says:

After the great Mongolian had con- quered China, Persia and all central Asia his empire became one of the most formidable ever established. It extend- ed from the Pacific ocean on the east to the river Dnieper in European Russia and was a wider realm than Egyptian, Greek or Roman conqueror ever knew. The kings of Armenia and Georgia, the emirs of Persia, the grand dukes of Rus sia and numerous other potentates were compelled to pay tribute to Genghis Khan, and they were all obliged to make the long journey to Karakorum in person or by their representatives.

This town, the capital of the largest empire that ever existed, was little more than a city of tents. It afterwatd became the residence of the famous Kublai Khan, as Marco Polo tells us, but every vestige of it has disappeared.

Genghis Khan at last retired from active service to lead a quiet life in the enjoyment of the wealth he had ac- quired at the expense of so much toil and blood. The numerous khans and generals were commanded to return, and they came back incumbered with the spoils of war. They all assembled on a vast plain some 20 miles in extent, and, according to one historian, even this great field could scarcely contain all the tents of the countless hosts. The emperor’s quarters alone were six miles around. An enormous white tent capa- ble of containing 2,000 people was spread over his throne, on which was carefully placed the bit of black carpet used at his coronation.

A CLEVER FORGER. But He Overshot the Mark and Was Trapped by the Banks

Not long ago there stood before the paying teller’s window of one of New York’s big banks an unctuous little man smiling blandly over a $100 check. Signature, indorsement and every detail were correct. To make assurance doubly sure, the little man explained with some insistence, ‘‘ You see, I have had my indorsement certified.’’

The check was paid without hesita- tion, but the teller said to himself, ‘*Why is that idiot standing there with such a broad grin, trying to fix his face on wy memory?’’ And duly he took note.

A few days later the man appeared at the window again, his countenance cistended in the same smile, with an- other check from the same firm. Tho indorsement was certified in exactly the same Way, and this time the amount was $900. There was absolutely noth- ing wrong with the check on its face, and it came from a weil known custom- er of the bank. ‘‘In spite of all,’’ said the paying teller, ‘‘something told me that fellow was a crook. So I saidI should have to look up the account be- fore it could be paid, and while he waited I slipped around to the firm’s office, which was only a short distance away.

‘‘The check was examined and pro- nounced perfectly good, and I was about to walk away when the head of the firm said: ‘Wdy, hold up. We’ve issued no checks this morning.’ And then I went back and bagged my crook. He had first sold the firm a bond and got his original $100 check in payment. This he had used to imitate the firm’s signature on the second and likewise to impress me with tbe fact that he was all right, so that when he came around a second time I would not bother him.’’ —0O. D. Lanier in Scribner’s.

Why She Liked Hypnotism.

A young woman from Washington has discovered a practical use for hyp- notism and declares that at last she sees iis value. She was visiting a young artist, who, with her chaperon, observes all the proprieties, in a studio up town in New York city. The Washington young woman was called on by her physician, who happens to be skilled in the ways and wiles of hypnotism. The chaperon was eager, as many women seem to be, to be hypnotized when the conversation turned on that subject and the doctor’s skill with the art.

The doctor was a trifle chary about showing his powers, but the two younger women begged him to gratify the elder woman’s curiosity. The chap- eron smiled to herself and bubbled with delight when the doctor finally consented to experiment on her. In 15 minutes it was the turn of the two girls to bubble with satisfaction. Under the doctor’s persuasive power the chaperon was lost to the world and all but the M. D.’s power.

*“*At last!’’ exclaimed the Washing- ton girl. ‘‘Here at last is a practical use for hypnotism. Anything that can put a chaperon to sleep is worth having about. Teach me, oh, doctor!’’—New York World.

A Berlin Custom.

In Eerlin there are iron posts or stanchions fixed on the curb at conven- ient distances, marked ‘‘halting place,’’ for omnibus or tramcar. At these places the passengers wait, and the drivers are not allowed to pull up at any other spot. When an omnibus approaches one of these posts, the conductor calls out, ‘Halting place!’’ and if a passenger wants to get out or if any passengers are waiting to get in the driver pulls up; if not, he passes on.

The following are said by a Swiss hunter to have been found near the nest of an eagle he recently discovered in the Alps: A hare, 27 chamois’ feet, 4 pi- geons’ feet, 30 pheasants’ feet, 11 heads of fowls, 18 heads of grouse and the re- mains of a number of rabbits, marmots and squirrels.
