S~ On Saturday morning last, Mr..
Samuel H. Kinney, of Voluntown. Ct.,
went In company with man who COM
menccd work for him, for six months,
the day previous, to his shinglc mill for
the purpose Of grinding an Ak. After
letting on the water, while in the act OF
putting on the belt, the skirt of his coat
was caught and he was drawn in by the
machinery and crushed to death. 1t
required six men to extricate his body.
Some three and BALI years ago Mr.. X.
sailed for California from this place, in
the Brig Gen. Cobb, and returned about
a year since.
Mr.. Kinney's brother was killed few
years since at the same mill, on the
same day Of the week, in company with
the same person, who had on the day
previous Friday commenced to work
for Mr.. X, for six months, by falling
into the wheel pit while engaged in
grinding an Ak. P. =.

pressed congratulations to Mrs. Florence

Gradually, however, as the younger
Mrs. Florence, in the process OF time

even Mrs. Gould could begin to perceive
the intrinsic excellence of her character,
although even this was more tacit as

covery of her own.
As for Belinda, she was married about
. year after Fanny Clayton's wedding, to
q sprig of gentility with about as much
force of character as herself. This
took place on the same night that Lieut..
Harwood, son of Mrs Harwood before
alluded to, led to the alter Mary Clay

had ever seen-lovely, not only in face

THE CAPTIVE IN PATAGONIA or,
Life among the Giants, is work Of
thrilling interest !; being personal mar
rative, by Benjamin F. Bourne, of ad-
ventures among the little-known inhab-
itants of the southern extremity of the
American continent. His narrative of
his captivity gives US much information
of these sons Of old Anak, Of whom 80
many fabulous accounts have been given.
It bears the mark of authenticity and
it will probably long bold place among
the stories Of maritime disaster, captivi-
ty and adventure, which possess such an
enduring interest. 1t is got up in
beautiful style-maugre the advertise
ments in the commencement and end
and finely illustrated. Price, s5 cents.

p@ We have frequently had few
words to say about our bridge, and now
VIC have few moro to offer on thsssme
subject. The Westerly side is now
quite respectable, but we are sorry that
we are unable to say the same of the
Stonington side. 1t is not only danger
Gus from the numerous holes and rotten
planks, but it is very much obstructed
by large pile of old planks thrown upon
one side in very slovenly manner. A
short time since that was much the best
side, but since the Maine Law went into
effect in this State this side has very
much improved while the other has de-
preciated. What can be the cause Of
iti Is there any connection between it
and the effects Of the Maine Law ! AT
any rate, it is q remarkable coincidence,
and We hope when our Connecticut
friends get the Maine Law this spring
those old planks will be removed and
the bridge thoroughly repaired.
P.S. Since writing the above, we
notice the pile of planks has been re-
moved, we therefore take back all we
said about that ; but the holes have not
been carried of vet.

RESOLUTIONS.

Whereas, Appeals to the sword for
determination of national controversies
are always productive of immense evils :
And Whereas, the spirit and enterprize
of the age, but more especially the
genius of our own government, the
habics of our people, and the BIZ CHEST
permanent prosperity of our republic, as
well as the claims of humanity, the die.
tates of enlightened reason, and the
precepts of our holy religion, all require
the adoption of every feasible measure
consistent with national honor and the
security of our rights, to prevent, as far
as possible, the recurrence of war here
after-Therefore,
Resolred, That in the judgment Of
this general Assembly, it is desirable for
the government of these United States,
whenever practicable, to secure in its
treaties with other nations provision
for referring to the decision of Umpires
oil future misunderstanding that cannot
be satisfactorily adjusted by amicable
negotiations in the first instance, before
resort to hostilities shall be had.

Law, see to it that all voters are posted

placed the law before the people in that
shape. Let the cowardly politicians
know that whom they arc sent to the
Legislature to make Maine Law, that
you mean to have the Maine Law. Let
them understand that they are sent there
as Legislators-not as committee to
draft resolutions for the people to vote
on. When they ask you-Shall this law
be repealed '-let the voice of Rhode
Island come up With such clear, en-
phatic, laundering NO as shall make the
towards quail, while it shall echo and
re-echo from the pine-clad hills of
Maine-the pionecr-to the everglades
Of Florida and the golden shores of Cal
