THE TOWN OF EAST CHESTER.

There is a remarkable rock in this vicinity well worthy the stranger's notice, marked with a rude impression of a human foot seven inches in length, pointing west. It is a perfect impression of the right foot; and what is very singular, another track occurs on the opposite side of the sound, on Long Island. There appear to be several tracks upon that island. " About half a mile from the fort on Montauk Point," says Mr. Trime, " in a southeasterly direction, is a granite rock, imbedded in the ground, on the upper surface of which is the apparent impress of a human foot. The figure is as perfect and distinct as would follow from the pressure of the left foot upon some cohesive substance, except being deficient in a toe ; a deficiency no.t at first sight apparent, and discernable only by inspection. No artist could have chiselled a more perfect resemblance. The impression is still fresh, and without the least appearance of injury from time. There are two other tracks less perfect and distinct.
