GENERAL TAyLoR's REMAINS. Col
onel Bliss, in letter to Christian Ros-
elins, of New Orleans, in behalf of
Mrs. Taylor, relative to the removal
of the remains Of General Taylor,
says -
The desire which you express, in
behalf of the citizens Of Louisiana,
that the remains of the late President
should be removed to that State for
final interment, exhibits degree Of
respect for his memory which is the
more feelingly appreciated by Mrs.
Taylor, because she has many valued
fiends in your State, and cherished
associations connected with her resi-
dence there; she, therefore, deeply re-
qrets that the wish of the committee
canet be complied with. Her own
feelings, and those of the members Of
her family, now here, are decid- -dIy in
favor of the removal Of the remainn to
the family cemetery, near Louisville.
where the father and kindred Of her
late husband have heen buried. She
is sure that the committee will under
stand the motives which lead her to
prefer this disposal Of the remains
She is not the less grateful to them
and to the people whom they represent,
for the distinguished tribute of affec-
tionate regard to the memory of the
departed, which their application con-
veys, and for which she begs leave
to tender her warmest acknowledge
ments.

ISSUED on Monday at noon, contains tie
following;
On Sun lay night last, three barns,
with their contents, situated Oh" Bun-
gee Road" in Attleboro, about one
mile from the Depot, were destroyed
by fires, set by an incendiary. The
barns were the property Of David and
Eliphlet Wilmarth, and of Hon. John
Daggett. The fires were set in quick
succession aud the buildings, which
were on adjacent farms, were all in a
blaze at the same time. The dwell
ling house of Mr.. Dagge,t, narrowly
escaped destruction.
Oae of The barns belonging to the
Wilmarths, was insur d in The Aucbo-
ro' Mutual Office MIR. Daggetl's loss
was about $3.50. Insured by the same
Company for $40. One or two other
barns in the neighborhood were also
fired, but without damage. A strange
person seen in the vicinity during the
day preceding and near the fires at
night is supposed to have been the in
cendlary. There have recently been
several fires in Attleburo'; and much
excitement prevails, on account Of this

RoYAL MARRIAGEs.-The King OF
Denmark, Frederick VII, has married
a dress maker. the last foreign intelli-
gence says. This makesthe third wife
the king has had; and, as his two for
mer were princesses, with whom he
lived unhsppiIy and was divorced, he
has gone to the ranks OF the people in
hopes to find a temper more congenlal
to his own, his experience in royal tem-
pers not being favorable to further ex-
perimenis in those quarters. His first
wife was his cousin Wilhelmina, whom
he married in 1923, when he was
Crown Prince. After living with her
several years, they quarreled so that
his father banished him from CoPen-
hagen; in 1887, they were divorced,
and the year after she married another
man. The Crown Prince waited three
years before following her example,
His second wife was the Princess Caro-
line of Mecklenburg Strelitz. From
her he was separated in 1916, their mar
rage being of about FIVE years dura-
ton.

The dead the dead do they love US still,
In the regions where they roam,
And Oh, are their spsnged wings e'er bent
Over ~, in their former home
Do they feel for Us as once they felt,
When the earth was their abode,
Or are they now too pure to know
Aueht save the love Of God
Can they see our deeds from the spirit land,
And bless all the pure in heart
And does the birth ola sinful thought
To them dep grief imPart' !
Oh, say do the loved of earth ye, live
In far of sunny cline,
And shall We meet in their fond embrace,
Beyond the wreck Oft time
Oh, yes, know that they love us still,
And feel as they felt on earth,
Save the loss ofa tempting spirit Of i'll,
Which lessened the angels worth.
But they know the storms that Jarken life.
They have felt the woes we feel,
And they pray for strength 10 nerve our hearts
And a power to live with zeal.
They have loved us once and would greet N wA~r
The clouds grow thick al eten,
And folding MS meath their snowy wings,
Thrice welcome us home to heaven.
They are with us still in our balb~ed dreass
In the quiet hours Of night,
And they bend above the trembling soul,
With spirits pure delight.
They cheer us on in the path fife
With Hopes extatic thrill
Then let us have pure faith in God,
For the dead they love us still

A RAIL RoAD TO FALL RIvrR.-Sines
our people have aroused from their le,har-
Ric sleep sufficiently to build Telegraph,
We have slight hope that life 10 not en-
tirely extinct, and tha, they may yet bs
moved TO greater and more important se-
tion for the welfare Of the ancient capitol.
The next NOV oment We desire TO see made
is for the construction Of Rail Road from
this place 10 Fall River the necessity Of
this Road ~ iel, more and more every sea-
son, and the guarantee of its availability 10
the stockholders is every Jay made more
certain. When the advantages derived
from Rail Roads are SO pa pable, il 10 use
less for US to waste time and space in sta,
ing them to our readers, all Of whom are
as familiar With them as we are.
All that is necessary to secure this Road
is for the people of Newport to move in the !.
matter, and become responsible for such an
amount Of the stock as shall give character
to the enterprise, and thus start il upon
such a basis as shall induce others 10 en- y
bark in It. and thus ensure its constructions.
There are not capitalists and extensive
business men enough in Ne Spor to sub.
ribe for sufficiently large amount OF this.
stock, at the commencement, TO get the
project well started /; therefore. Tho only
practicable aud sure way Is for tho Town,
in its corporate capacity, to subscribe for
one hundr d Thousand dollars Of the stock.
This would not require any tax on the peo-
pie or their property, because the Town
could probably obtain loan Of that amount,
a, per cent. per annun, and the proh,sr
OF the Road would more than pay the in
,crest then the Town could dispose Of ito
stock in the Road, by small amounts, after
rs con.ple,ipn.-s that the Town Of New-N
port would simply loan its credi, in order to
secure a great public improvement which
would vastly increase i,s population, and en-
hance the value Of its property.
If the Town Won d do this. there are in
diyiduals here and elsewhere who would
take The balance OF the stock at once. We
know of gentleman on the Island through
whose farm the Road would run, for nearly
. milo, according to the survey which wac
made, two or three years since, who would
take The amount which would he paid for
his land IN s'ock,-and he says he knows
of several others who would also become
stockholders in the same way. Thus it =
will lie seen that, after all the building Of
tn Road is not such Herculean task that
people need shrink from It in despair. On
the contrary, i, would be comparatively
quite an easy operation.
Certainly, no one can question the feasi-
bili.y Of the plan, as far as lis practical and
beneficial results are concerned /; for there a
is not an instance in the country, where .
Rail Road has been built, ihat il has not
benefited the towns through which il has
passed, and particularly the one where ii
terminated. We really wish that We could
arouse our peop's to the importance Of This
subject, and get them TO act in the matter,
without delay, because we know ,ha, il 10
Tor The interes, Of the people Of Newport.
10 have this Rail Road constructed, and
that, too, ~i,hou, further delay.
