fashion, upon the most accommodating terms, but he
presumes that those who see the pScple Of the pa.
tent will never again think Of having Bedsteads upon
the old plan. The Joints much more simple, easier
to be put up and taken down, more secure against
bugs, and much frmer when up, than any other. He

The di,tant mountains undUiatins line
Waves through the blue horizon; lost at length
To the dim vision, m the misty ait.
While the nesr submits, jsrkiy browning sill

To gaze upon the se.ne, tho all Is mute.
Hosh'd are the sounds of ehdhood's mirthful voice
And youths glad laugh; that wake the eehUins hiii.
oh! eau Il really he, that one brief year

Where nov /, that loved form, 80 often seen

Gently she moved, in Mairon dignity
Among the sweets her fosteIin hand had spresd.

While often she resrain'J Their noisy glee;
For, at he- -.as 6. with the deliberate steps

and the marked attention paid tO him on his arrival by Mir. Canning and other min isters, proved that those expectations were not unjuStly formed. An overrnling Prov idence, however, did not permit them to be realized. During his voyage Mir. King was attacked with disease often the con- sequence of a voyage, and which so im- paired his health, as to prevent him from an active discharge of the duties of his off, flee. After remaining abroad year, in hope of re-establiShing his health without any improvement, he determined to return to die in his native land, in the bosom of his family and his friends. Here, cheer ed by the attentions of an affectionate fam fly, and in a composed and resigned state, he calmly awaited his approaching end.
 It is when men like him are taken from among us we have cause for grief We remember the days of bis former useful ness, and bend in reverence before the christening stroke. We rejoice that he should so long have been spared-and that the blow descended not in the hour of his prime and his usefulness. In manner, MT. King was mild, and dgnifed-m temper firm and decided. As speaker, he was modle for parliamentary debate. His compatriots in the Senate, will long re- member the respect which he manifested for their opinions, whilst he firmly main tained his ewn. As statesman, prudent, penetrating and comprehensive in his views; his country vii long have cause for gratitude, that his talents were devoted to the promotion of public good. He was his country's true friend and while he did not hesitate to condemn the policy which placed us in collision with Great Britain, he did not permit his feelings to opperate, when his fortune and influence were required, to promote the successful termination of the war. His private char acter was without blemish. As a husband, affectionate and sincere-as a farther an object of veneration to his children, he has descended with lamentation to the tomb. As patriot his country monrus his loss.

the indians. They were formerly resident of Boston, and were taken captive near the Can ada line in the late war. Alter changing mas ters several times, they were taken by the FIat-Heads to the Rocky Mountains. They made several attempts to escape, during their captivity, but were re-taken and subjected to the most excrutiating tortures two of them had their tongues cut out to the roots; the third lost part of his, and can tell the tale of their sufferings in an indstiect manner. When they made their last fruitless attempt at es- cape they were 800 miles from the habtations of the whites. A squaw finally assisted them by conducting them about fifty miles through the wilderness, and placing them upon tract to the white settlements.

From the Village Record. A VOICE IN PENNSYLVANIA.

We declare, in sincerity, that from the known changes in public sentiment in Penn sylvania favorable to the Administration, there seems to us reasonable ground to hope that MT. Adams will be sustained by the people of this great, patriotic and intel ligent state. a.
 Let it be remembered that less than one quarter of the voters in the state gave their suffrages at the last election for the Jack son Ticket! Great changes have since taken place, favorable to the Administra- ton. We shall have mighty struggle--a great turn out of the People-the question will not be settled by politicians 1; and let not the Combination too confidently say, "Pennsylvania is eursr' r'-They reckon without their host. If the Administration continues to pursue a prudent and wise course, as is it is almost universally admit ted, by unprejudiced men, that they have

In this instance of mortality, there is much room for be- slowing encOmium on the dead. Possess sed of strength of intellect,a and mind cul- tivated far above the mediocrity, together with conspicuous piety, her society was truly interesting. She made every reas- onable exertion to contribute to the wants of the poor and needy, and was ever read- y to mingle with the afflicted the sympa- thetic tear. Her life was devoted to use- fulness: she gained many friends, and di- ed, after about three days sickness, prob ably without single enemy.

LITCHFIELD, MAY 10, 1897.

Notice to Revolutionary Pensioners.
 Instructions have been received at the Pension Office in this city, from the War De pertinent, which require new forms for pow CTS of attorney and paths of indentifcation, in order to receive the semi-annaai stipend which will become due the 4th day of Sept. next. The alteration is required for the pur- pose of having a uniformity in those docu- ments from the several pension offices in the United States.
 Pension Office, Boston, April 16, 1827." l3T7Such blank powers of attorney, Sc. as
 are required, may be had at the "Litch-
 field Bookstore in season for the next se-
 mi-annual payment in September.
 One or two city editors affect to think that the dignity of the state is greatly seandalized by the course pursued by Gov. To,niinson, in going directly on to Hartford at the opening of the session instead of staying at home un- til waited upon, and informed of his election course would have displayed some false mod esty, as well as have been an useless waste of time and money. The canyassess appointed by law had declared him elected, and it would have been maiden timidty in him, had he neglected to have gone directly on to Hart ford, where his presence was absolutely nc cessary for the commencement of legislative business; more especially since such course was urged upon him by Gov. Wolcott, whose health would not permit him to go to Hart ford. If the independent and honorable course he pursued be departure from ancient usages, as the Herald asserts, we will only say that it is high time such nsages were done away, and that the encroachment upon them had better be made this spring than next, or at any other time hereafter.-If no other argu- mcnts can be produced against Gov. T. he will receive the unqualified support and ap probation of the citizens of Connecticut for many years to come.
 Mr Mdcon-This gentleman, who has been so long in public service as representative and senator in Congress, has been invited by some of the citizens of North Carolina to partake of public dinner. In reply to the invitation MT Macon says ;-" Permit me to say to you that have never been to public dinner giv ,en to any man for public services, and that do not approve of them." Whatever may be said infaavor ofpublic dinners, as to their ten dency to promote harmony and good feeling, they have of late been perverted to scenes of rancor and bitter enmity; and in stead of that generous flow of liberal feelings which ought to characterize such feasts, every ef- fort has been made to excite jealousy and ill., will against the greatest and best men in the country. No wonder the, venerable Macon, after having read the hostile sentiments re- gently delivered at opposition dinners at the south, should declare that he does not ap- prove of them. No honest man can approve efsuch scenes of turmoil and strife.
