Andrews, who left Atlantic City oo June 18th to cross the Atlantic in a twelve toot boat was picked up in an exhausted condition about 100 miles off the Irish coast last week by a steamer.

Miss Fife made a total of 456 a creditable pass. __- Loox ovr For Tuem.—About nine o’clock Jast evening a number of strange looking men were noticed stealthily wend~ ing their way down Queen Street as if in search of some particular rendezvous, Each of theparty carri¢d an article of some description in his band ;and it appeared to be the desire of ail te preserve each one to himeeif the particular identity of bis burden. Suspicions movements always eet a lynx-eyed prbiic on the qui vive ; and therefore not a few of our citizece be- came interes'ed in the probable object of av apparent wayside wandering troupe. Despite the care with which each one car- ried his parcel the uneveness of our side~ walks proved more than a match for the secretiveness displayed. These occasional shoulderiugs brought the articles carried into violent contact and unmistakeable sonods of tinware reverberated through the evening air. To the watchers these sounts had their own sigoification,—and ing band of gypsies had struck the cily. This much determined the whys, and wherefores of the reserve displayed came up for discussion. Some suggested that ware made it necessary to handle it with care, otherwise tie object for which it was inteded might be defeated. This conjecture may after all be correct, for when the party reacbed the waterfront, near the Hill-bor- } @agh Boatiog House, they forthwith pros ceeded to testif any of the outfit possessed sieve-like qualiues when bhclding water. The quick lowering shadows cf evening made it impossibie tur the onlookers to tell just how much of the tioware passed musier, bui from the animated conversa- tion of the troupe it is surmised that some few of the pieces were found faulty. The private detective burean of the city bas been apprised of the presence of these men in our midst, and an expert member of the staff bas been detailed ‘to watch their future movements. Anything of in terest regarding them will be duly chroo- icled so that an unexpected swoop upon their part may be frustrated. At the same time we warn those living in the country districts near the city to be on the watch for them.
