Der of this branch of the Legislature is dead
and he died yesterday in the forenoon He
had the brown creators, bronchitis he
meant) and was an uncommon individual.
His character was good up to the time he
died, and he never lost his voice. He was
26 years old and was taken sick before he
died at his boarding house where boarding
can be had at dollar and seventy-fve cents
week washing and lights included. He
was an ingenious creatur and in the early
part of his life had father aud mother.
He was an officer in our State militia since
the last war and was brave and polite and
his uncle Timothy Higgins belonged to the
Revolutionary war and was commissioned
as lieutenant by Gen. Washington, first
President and commander-in-chief of the
army and navy of the United States who
died at Mt. Vernon deeply lamented by IA
large circle of friends on the l4th Of Decem-
Der, 1899, or Whereabouts, and was buried
with militia honors and several guns were
burst in firing salutes.
Sir, MIR. Speaker-General Washington
presided over the great continental Sanhe-
drm and political meeting that formed our
constitution; and indeed he was great and
good man. He was first in war and first in
peace and first in the hearts of his country
men and though he was in favor of the
United States Bank, be was friend of edu-
cation and from what lie said in his farewell
address ] have no doubt he would have vo-
ted for the tariff of 1916 if he had been
alive and hadn't died sometime beforehand
His death was considered at the time as
rather premature on account OF its beng
brought on by an ordinary cold.
Now MIR. Speaker such being the charac-
ter Of General Washington, | motion that
we wear Grape around the left arm of this
Legislature and adjourn till Tomorrow NOR
ming as an emblem of our respect for the
memory of S. Higgins who is dead and died
of the brown creators yesterday in the after
noon.

Daring Burglary and Brutal conduct OF

of Mr.. Jas, Weldon, No. "a Ferry 81. was a
scene Of the grossest outrage which has ever
come to our knowledge. ltappears that MI
w. left home that evening in the boat for
New York, and that the perpetrator of the
deed must have been acquainted with the
fact. During the night Mrs. w. was AVA
kend by nuise m the street, and on opening
the window heard the voices of two persons
in conversation one of whom said, 81 know
weldon has got money" Notwithstan-
ding her fear she picked up cane, and go
ing down stairs opened the door leading in
to the parlor, when she stood confronted by
n man, whom she struck with the cane, and
then overcome with fear, she fell fainting To
the floor. On recovering her senses, she
found the daring scoundrel standing over
her, demanding her husbands money, which
he said he knew was in the house. This
she denied, aud replied to him that all was
in the house she had in her pocket--a Eve
dollar gold piece and half dollar in silver
which she gave to him.
After demanding her husbands money he
seized her by the hair and dragging her TO
the back door, drew a knife from his pocket
and thurst il at her thrice, each time prick
ing her slightly.ia the breast, aud threatening
to cut her throat il she made noise; he then
1ads She does not think she can recognize

The new contractors have commenced
work upon the 5ist or upper section of the
Hudson River Railroad, which passes thro'
Poughkeepsie. All the sections below are
progressing rapidly, and as soon as right of
way is obtained for less than one mile the
company will have possession of the entire
line to New York. No part of the road will
be put in operation this Fall, on account of
the deep cut through Fort Washington
Point, near New York BY Spring the road
will be.nearly complete to Fshkill Landing,

the route is also to be put under contract to
