Speculation has a w ide Add for opera­tions in the effort to conceive the probable present abiding place of tha bodies of the . twe unfortunate men loet during the late gale, by the overflowing of tha " flats,” as a large portion of the country south of this city and bordering upon the lake is callsd. We have had a daily report thus far of th s developments of the sad story as they were imparted to us. Yesterday, the hourly ex­pectation of news of the recovery of the ismaina haring given place to a desire to know wherein oonsisted the diffi­culties of th s secret, one of our reporters visited the neighborhood of th a tragedy and investigated. Tha resu lt is a conclusion on his part th a t th s bodies of M r. Crocker and his man may be looked for almost anywhere within an area of four square miles w ith about as good a prospect of finding them in one place aa in another, if they have not by th is time found-their way into the lake through some of the w ater courses or ditches. Indeed, one individual who had been taking part in th e quest was beard to say, speaking of the uncertainty of the search, th a t he would not take his oath th a t they had not gone over Niagara Kalis by th is time. Theories there are many, almost every individual of the hun­dreds who have gone probing the loe and turning the drifted rubbish for miles in itope of finding them, having his own pecu­liar views of the probabilities, founded on his own experience and obeervation. The facte show th a t the buggy and horse must have been washed from the road a t some point w ithin a space of about one hundred feet a t tha lowest point of the turnpike, ju s t beyond th s old mansion on the Tifft farm; and th a t t t e y were found I separately, the buggy about half a mile and the horse about a mile and a quarter from this point, and in a direct line with each other, taking i t for a starting point. The horse, after passing th s place where the buggy was found, driftsd through a culvert in the embankment of the Lake Shore road, the opening being about owe hundred f >et in width w ith spaces of ten feet be­tween the supports. The opinion of the most sanguine of the searchers and, in fact, of all who were at work up to a late hour last evening, is tha t all the bodies took this line in their motion, and th a t the men, be­ing quite as buoyant and less bulky, would bo carried or beached higher up than the horse. B ut crossing the line spoken of are two ditches, so callud, either of which would flcat a canal boat of the largest size we 1 loaded, and cither of these might have received and diverted them, or they may have failed to find the culvert and lie covered by the de­bris along the foot of the railroad embank­ment. As we have said there is a large latitude for opinion, and the most saga­cious disagree in theories. All, however, are unanimous in believing it very probable tha t no traee may be found until Spring and the disappearance of the ice reveals all the secrets of th a t terrible night.£ T h e roads were found to be in a very bad condition, the snow having been entirely blown away in many places, so th a t the cutter ground and grated in a most uncom­fortable way; and it was found necessary to relieve onr good beast by taking to the tried and tru s ty rsportorial legs on sundry occasions. A fter passing the covered bridge

, on Ohie street th s hare ru ts were flanked on the weather side of the road by a ridge of fretted and champed iee over

, which the runners made better time.On the right Old Erie growled and

, roared a t us over a line of white ise hummocks a few rods away and the sheet of undulating ice between recommenced on the other side of the road

, and stretched away aa far as the creek. As we proceed the beach recedes and the boun­daries of the ice sheet on th s other side alto stretch farther away. In sight, upon the

, left hand side of the road, stands a large . old-fashioned honse, w ith a village of out . building and long barns clustered about it.

This is the Tifft homestead, and i t is b u t a ' few score yards beyond th a t the scene of

the fatal event is pointed out. The house is occupied by Mr. George W . Darrow, superintendent of th s farm. Mr. Darrow and his tw o sons w ith certain terrified neighbors occupied i t as a hold of refuge

, during the night of the storm. The out buildings show distinct marks of the fury of

, the waters, being cased w ith iee almost to the eaves, quits so in some cases. B ut the principal damage was done to the detached buildings, some of which are more than a mile distant.

John M cCarty lives, or did, in the second of the smaller farm houses, about a stone’s throw from the homestead. John had premonitions of the coming storm and had prepared for it. A ll the neighbors had in fact been warned by the forethought of Mrs. Darrell, who observed on Sunday morning th a t the barometer had fallen to 30, and 28 was as low as she had ever be­fore seen i t during all the terrific storms this coast has seen for many years. Few heeded the warning, however, a kind of incredulity they w ill hardly be guilty of again. The wind began to rise a t about eight or half paat. I t was southwest at the time, and all th s tim e during the strongest of the gale. M r. Crocker was seen on his way to church by the people along the road, and a t about half past nine McCarty hearing the buggy pass said to his wife, " the re’s M r. Crocker aa d he’ll never get home alive”. H e opened the door, b u t the w ater was already tw o feet high a t the step, and thinking M r. C. would certainly tu rn about before reach­ing the most dreaded part of the road, he turned his attention to the safety of his own family. The water rose rapidly. McCarty had le t his pigs take refuge in the wood shed, but when the w ater began to invade th a t retreat and they grew uneasy he opened the doors to them and invited them into the house. By th is tim e the water was bubbling up through the cracks of th e main floor, and as M cCarty took to the etairs lamp in hand the piggies followed and took up the ir quarters in a front cham­ber where they cosily outrode the storm. As the house began to creak and groan John procured an ax and quietly scut­tled i t by opening a free ingress for the water through the floor in two plaoes, and having rescued those of hie effects, no t forgetting wife an ! babies, th a t might be h u rt by th e wet, he retreated in good order to the seooud floor. Before one o’clock the w ater was nearing the oeiling of the first, and great waves dashed completely over the house. A t th a t hour th e wind changed about to the northwest until two, when i t came beck to th e first point and blew fiercer than ever. At about four tho storm was highest, aad

which also extends northw ard fromit aad in tb e line of its prolongation, across the railroad. The culvert spoken of ia about tbe same distance along tho track to the south. A d itch w hat may alaaoet be styled a canal cuts the field end lane about half way, running parallel w ith the rail­road. N ear th ia, in the oentre of th e dry portion, the buggy was found. The h one lies in a bed of ioe pebbles, fragmentsworn round end smooth by theaction of the waves. The harneas bed been cu t in several places.

ture, and not from mv having received the informer’s foes which ho expected; have been always of th a t opinion; hav not said to any person th a t Holley’s expression meant th a t 1 had beat him on procuring the informer’s fees; d id not see any thing marked " J . H anpt;” Holley had given in­formation th a t lea to a seixure; on not more than one occasion; have conversed w ith a great m any men about th is ease; have talked to ail th e men on the force about it; toYScott, Barnard, Lech ter, Curtiss, and others; never know Holley to be connected w ith smuggling goods.

Isaac Scott sworn: Am a Customs In ­spector; know Holley; was present a t a conversation between him and M eistsr in Eria stree t; did not hear Holley make the rem ark alluded to ; never knew Holley to be connected w ith smuggling; have heard of i t though.

Alexander Davidson recalled: The n u t­megs I sold were put up in five common tlour barrels; they were marked " J . Haunt, Black Creek,” in full; never sold any other lo t p u t up in flour barrels.

Isaac Allen recalled: Remember the time of Holley’s arrest; met him on Sunday, December 18th, on the ferry boat going to Canada; i t waa after his arrest; he said hs would make Curtiss sm art for the transac­tion, and some of the Commercial folks; be said something about my coming over to give evidence, and also about others coming over; he said th a t if they didn’t get me they wouldn’t get h is; he said some­thing about my business affairs not bringing ms over, and th a t if I did not come no one else would; he said "you don 't w ant to hu rt me,” or “ you don’t know any thing to h u r t me;” Holley said he had worked up more seizures than any man on th s force; I know the man th a t took the nutmegs away from my place; he lives a t the lower ferry; Holley has not been a t my place since tbe seizure.

A r i W A BSTRACT T H O U G H T S IN PO LITIC A LECONOMY.

One of tbe moet celebrated divines of this country said upon one occasion th a t a young man should al way ■ be a radical. That i t would answer for an old man to be a con­servative, b u t a young man, never.

Two great elements in ethies and politi­cal economy appear to be radicalism and conservatism. They are continually a t war v ith each other and through all ages have been each striving to obtain the mastery. Each has had its adherents, warm and en ­thusiastic, who have labored a t the bar, in the pulpit, and on the field of battle , in behalf of the ir cause. The great questions arise, which of these tw o have had the greater influence for the progress of hum anity and w hat are essentially the characteristics of each? These questions can best be answered by a few homely il­lustrations which w ill meet the case, and- substantiate the view taken by the cler­gyman quoted.

Radicalism is always going ahead : Con­servatism is willing to have m atters stay where they are.

Radicalism is ever seeking new paths of progress and looking for a higher civilisa­tion : Conservatism is content to walk in the paths trod by its forefathers.

Radicaliixn fights wrong to-day and com­promises w ith i t to-morrow : Conservatism is ever ready to compromise..

Radicalism is the surgeon’s knife, pen­etrating to the core the rottenness of society, and exposing its corruptions; Conservatism is a salve which would heal the outside, and leave the inner mass still rotten and cor­rupt.

Radicalism had its greatest exponent in our Saviour when on earth, and from his time to the present there has been no pro­gress ever made except upon w hat have been termined radical ideas. Radicals have been a t the head of every struggle or revolution which has had for its object the bettering of mankind or the amelioration of human suffering. To be in the front rank of the onward march of civilization one m ust ne­cessarily be a Radical, and in this view is there a young man who can doubt which element he will connect himself w ith ?

They who expect to be participants in the prosperity and greatness of our country m ust ever be alert for new ideas and move­ments which passsing events seem to indi­cate. Never cling to old prejudices and customs a t the expense of progress and im­provement. Better by far bo the men whot in the ir age, dictate w hat a nation m ust do a decade hence. Though suffering may be the result, in the end right m ust prevail and the namo of him who carried the ban­ner will shine forth among those "n o t born to die.” J ustitia. *

F r o m T r u s t w o r t h y D a t a i t has been estim ated th a t a t least one fourth of all persons born in the U nited States, have, a t birth, lungs in a tuberculous condition, and in consequence are predisposed to Pulmo­nary Complaints ; y e t it is equally well established th a t th is predisposition need not end in Consumption, Asthma, or any other lung disease, if due care and w atch­fulness be observed, and all exciting causes promptly treated as they arise. I t is in ju s t such cases Dr. D. Jayne’s Expectorant exercises its most beneficial effects, and has produced the largest proportion of its cures. Besides promptly removing Coughs and Colds, which, when left to themsolves, are tbe most common cause of tuberculous de­velopment, the Expectorant allays any in ­flammation which may exist, and by pro­moting easy expectoration, cleanses the lungs of tbe 6ubatances which clog them ! up, and which rapidly destroy when suf­fered to remain.

C A SE OT BORM AN H O I.L E V .A t the tim e of the arrest of Mr. Norman

Holley and James Riley on charges of de­frauding the revenue, considerable interest was excited and no little feeling exhibited on th e part of the public as regarded the disposition of the esse, and rumors without end coupled w ith unfounded predictions were rife. Yesterday afternoon M-. Nor­man Holley appeared before Mr. Commis­sioner Gorham for the prelim inary exami­nation usual in cases of such a nature. Evidence waa taken, argum ents for and against commitment heard and decision re­served until Friday next a t 12 o’clock noon, i he attendance on yesterday’s examination wraa limited to those immediately interested in the tria l and its results, and a t its close no opinions were expressed nor any excitement manifest. During the continuance of the examination the attorney for the defense took occasion to try a fling a t the eity jour­nals for the ir comments on the m atte r and endeavored to make capital on political and jounudisfeio grounds, a proeedure which to say the least was injudicious. The Commis­sioner, on objeetion taken by th e defense, ruled out the testimony of Mr. Bindemann and reserved his final deeision in accord­ance w ith tbe determination of adjourn­ment. The testimony was in substance as follows:

Mr. Alexander Dayidaon sworn: Live in Hamilton, Ontario; am clerk in Kerr, Brown H. McKenzie’s wholesale siore; re­collect selling fire barrels of nutmegs; sold them to two parties who came into the store; one of them looked like Mr. Holley; it was on the 18th of October, 1869; these were not all th e nutmegs we shipped at lha t time, there were also two other pack­ages (kegs) sent from another house; the whole were directed to be shipped to J. (laupt, Black Creek; they were shipped by the G reat W estern Railway on the 19th.

Cross-examined—W as induced to come over here to give testimony by my employ­ers; suppose General Curtisa induced them to send me; when I first saw Curtiss he told me he was employed to detect smug­gling; in the esse of the nutmegs General

urtiss said th a t a son of the collector at this point was im plicated; do not recollect any names; the other man was about five feet ten inches tall; he was maybe th irty years of age; we sell a great quantity of nutmegs to go to all parts of Canada, but never any such amounts to parties in Can­ada.

Isaac H. Allen sworn.—Live a t Black ' Creek; am a merchant there; have been a

merchant there for tw enty years; konw Mr. Holley; received some nutmegs amounting to fire barrels and two half barrels marked J . H anpt, Black Creek; never heard of such a person a t Black Creek; took the nutmegs into my establish­ment; conversed w ith Mr. Holley a few days before they arrived; he said the goods

i were marked I. H aupt, and wanted me to take care of them; had a conversation with

; him the same day th a t the nutmegs arrived; he came to my place w ith a horse and buggy; another man waa w ith him; some­thing ta ller than Holley; he paid for the freight; he said th a t a team from E verett’s or Lanagan’s would be after them tha t •'veiling, the 22d of October, 1SG9; recog-

; nise the papers [bills of lading] handed to me; afterwards received a quantity of n u t­megs; received no notice as to who they vere for; they came shortly after those al­ready spoken of; tbe second lo t were seven barrels th a t came to my store; some teams- itcr came for them; he brought me a ship­ping bxR, the second lot were addressed to J. K. Thurber; they are the nutmegs de­scribed in the bill shown me; they were taken awSy towards nightfall, possibly af­te r dark.

Cross examined—I have known Holley from the day he introduced himself to me; he introduced himself to me on the occa­sion referred to of the first interview as a brother of Myron Holleys; he said tha t the barrels were coming; and th a t i t was an outside transaction of his own; he told me th s marks th a t would be on the barrels, and said th a t they wonld be J . H aupt; heard nothing before th is of the barrels; received a shipping bill; the railroad com­pany have i t 1 th ink ; the day th a t the first nutmegs arrived Holley came with another man; do not know the other man; the bill for the lo t marked J . K. Thurber was brought by the team ster; no one told me tha t tho second lo t was coming; know that tho barrels contained nutmegs; a plug was out of one of the barrels and I saw some nutmegs peeping out; know James Everetts; they say th a t I have been in the habit of selling goods to be delivered on thia side; have communicated w ith Curtiss about coming over to give evidence; he sent for me; m et him a t the Mansion House; he said something abont the revenue being de­frauded; wanted me to te ll him w hat I knew abont the case under consideration; told him w hat I have sworn to; don’t know w hat haa beeome of the nutmegs; don’t (know anything abont Holley being connected w ith them.$ |A .

Officers Mooney snd W urstenstcieu, on Tuesday forenoon made the arrest of a lad named John Bodkin, who, although only nineteen years of age, possesses all the thorough-bred accomplishments of an older and more experienced burglar. Already his reputation for honest, straightforward, cpen-handed larceny ranks peerless in the Mystic Order of Thieves, and if life and opportunity be spared him a little longer, he will certainly attain th a t high(!) pinnacle of bis ambition—the cross-beam, noose and trap!

This modern Jack Sheppard broke into the clothing store of W erle A Smith, No. 35 Main Btreet on the 8th of November and stole three overcoats of the value of $75, a sack coat worth $18, two pair of pants valued a t $‘20, and sundry other small a r ti­cles. W ha t occupation his busy fingers have found since th a t November night has not ye t transpired, but i t is known th a t on Sunday night, January 2d, he broke into the clothing store of Messrs. W arner A Stein, Nos. 43 and 45 Main street, and stoic a dress coat, overcoat, vests, pants and some keys, all to the value of forty dollars.

On the same evening he also "w ent through” the cellar of a peddler named Richard H arnett, a t No. 57 East M arket street, and stole a large quantity of stock­ings, suspenders, fancy goods, etc., all to the value of about forty-five dollars. The stockings and suspenders he afterwards of­fered for sale to Mr. Daniel R. Campbell, who, being an honest man, refused to be the receiver of stolen goods, and therefore gave information of his suspicions to the police. Officers Mooney and Wuratcisen tracked M aster Bodkin to the honse of a Mrs. Shaw on the ether side of the creek opposite the Erie freight honse, where they found him enveloped in three stolen vests, two or three coats and a couple pairs of pants. He waa was arraigned before Justice Vanderpoel yesterday on the three separate charges, and in all cases fully committed for trial. In the case of W arner and Stein he plead guilty, bu t de­nied the tru th of the other charges.

A M U S E M E N T S .PA R E PA ROSA—M A RRIA G E OF FIG A R O .

All hsil to the genius of Mozart, the charms of Parepa and her talented troupe. Such seemed the unanimous sentiment felt by the large audience a t St. James Hall last evening. W e m ast rescind a formerly

. expressed opinion of the dram atic ta lents of Parepa. Comedy seems her especial forte. I t is not too mueh to aay th a t her personi­fication of the part of "Susanna” was tqual in a dram atic way to even her exe­cution of the music.

Miss Hersee was simply incomparable in her role, and as for Campbell we never saw him where he appeared to be so fully at home and performing a part for which he is better fitted by nature than the Figaro of Mozart. —

Mrs. Seguin was greeted throughout by continuous rounds of applause. The au­dience testified the ir enthusiastie appre­ciation throughout the performance, and nothing b u t the continuous strains of melody w ith which the opera abounds than applause would have been as regular and systematic as the succession of scene, air, dnett, trio and chorus.

The entire troupe and orchestra seemed to be entirely in the ir element. No per­formance in th is eity was smoother and marked by greater precision and energy. Tho interest never seemed to flag from the first stroke of the bows in the orchestra to the concluding chords which accompanied the lost fall of the curtain. W herein is one prominent reason for th is to be found? We answer th a t in great part i t was owing t o the masterly character of the composi­tion. I t was th is which seemed the. inspi­ration, from the Parepa down to the double bass and the drama.

As surely as the singer of M ozart's music stands before the footlights so surely do violin, flute, oboe snd clarionet take np the theme o t his discourse, echoing, contrasting, repeating and embellishing its theme in myriad forma, adding to its every phrase some new beauty, garlanding i t w ith every flower of fancy and spanning i t w ith a glorious rainbow arch of exquisite melody. There is never a pause or chasm in the progress of his musical invention, no strain whieh to his genius is not suggestive of amplification and adorn­ment. Music ia w ith him a constant tide which knows no retiring ebb. W ork so prolific in beanty almost mokes applause i t ­self a rude interruption and a contradiction to the eloquent discourse of song. No dash­ing and decided climax tells th s hearer th a t he is expected hero te testify
