AWFUL CASUALTY.

Mr.. VIM. Bridges, respectable young
man in DeerGeld, Mass. was killed OH the

was working at a machine constructed tori

over the principal perpendicular wheel 50

this situation, he was carried round by the
wheel several times, his head in each re-
voIution being struck against the ficor
with such violence as to be heard consi-
iderable distance, and to induce his wife
to suppose she heard the report OF a gun

ATTACK ON THE VAMPIRE.

An occurrence OF rather serious ma
ture took place on Monday, at the corner
OF Oliver and Chatham streets, where this
great natural curiosity was deposited for
exhibtation. A boy, We understand, was
in the act Of attempting to indulge his Gu
riosty by looking through an aperture in
the building. in order to have view OF
the animal, when some person ON the in
side, interested in the establishment, in-
serted the blade of an opened penknite, or
some other sharp-pointed instrument in
the crevice through which the boy was
looking, which perforated one OF his eyes,
and. it is supposed. will cause the entire
loss of it. A number of persons were
soon collected in consequence Of the oc-
currence, who Immediately proceeded to
tlke vengeance on the Vampire and his
keepers, by quickly demolishing the build
ing in which he was enclosed, and inflict-
ling on him as much injury as they were
capable of. The man who committed the
outrage on the boy, was taken into custo.

Quiroga who was superior in rank, took the
command, and established his head quarters IN The
Island Of Leon, while Riego with $500 men, sci
out for the purpose Of continuing the revolt ~
Andalusia. Passing by Algeziras, he received
some supplies from Gibraltar and proceeded to
Malaga Pursued and harassed, however, by y
superior Force under the command OF General
Jos. ODonnel, who followed them even to the
streets Of Malaga; his troops were nearly reduc-
ed to the alternative of dying sword in hand WITH
their commander. or delivering him up as the
price Of their own safety-when the success IL
other quarters caused the Constitution to be
generally proclaimed. :,
Riego Immediately proceeded to Seville, where
the honours of triumphal entry were accorded
him; from thence he proceeded to Madrid, where
he was received by the King, and appointed Cap
tain General OF Arragon. From this post he was
in consequence of his difference OF
opinion with the Minister Of War, Salvador, and
Moreda, the governor OF Sarugossa. lie was i'm
nediately, however, elected a member OF the
Cortes. In recent spirited attack upon the
French he was taken prisoner, loaded with CHAINS,
and thrown into dungeon at Madrid. We fear
he has but little to hope from the hands Of his
enemies.
Kiego is rather above the middle stature, pale,
and of reserved air. although popular in his
is brave and high minded.

GENERAL RIEGO.


Riego, whose conduct at Malaga has excited so
much attention, WAS born in the Asturlas, in the
year 1783-he is Field Marshal in the Spanish
Army, deputy to the Cortes OF 1922, and late
Captain General Of Arragon In the year 1908, heI
joined one of the Independent battalions formed by
the Spanish students from thence he became AMI
officer in the Regiment Of Asturiss, was made pri-
soner during the Peninsular war, and carried to-
France. where he remained till the peace Of 1914,
when he was released. He visited Germany and
England prior to his return to Spain; he there re-
Isumed the service, obtained the rank OF Lieut..
Colonel and the command Of a regiment; this re-
gnent was one of those assembled at Cadz for
the -xpedtlon to Mexico, and Riego was one OF
the leaders of that plot, which was revealed by
Ablsal. Quiroga, Arco-Arguero, Lopez Banos
and O'Daly. were arrested, but Riego was not dis.
lowered, and continuing TO mcite those who had
already partly entered into the plot, at length
brought it to an issue. The lst January, 1890, i
burst out in the villages of Z" Las Cabczas de Sal
IJusn," where he was quartered, by the cry O
|" Long live the Constitution" from one of the bat
ltalions Of his regiment. He received the oaths O
1.-The inhabitants, and then proceeded to ARGOS
where he was joined by the other battaons. The
Then arrested the new commander in chief, Coun
Calderon, and then proceeded to "Alcala dc Lo
d dlGazules," where Quiroga was imprisoned, and re
y leased him. The regiments of Seville and Of tn
! Canares followed their example, which beinl
soon initiated by the others, the title of"The al
Is my of the expedition" was changed to that Q
