The WEST KILLINGLY BURGLARs.-The
robbers of Mr.. Chamberlin's Jewelry store,
at West Killingly Conn, John Davis, John
Thompson, and Charles Rooney, were
brought up for examination on the 4th inst,
and all the evidence for the government was
adduced. 1t is strong and conclusive. The
attorney for the defence procured an adjourn
ment of the trial, ostensibly to give the pris-
oners an opportunity to produce rebutting ev-
idence but it was generally believed in Kill
lingly that the real object was to secure
chance for the rogues to escape. A great ma
ny suspicious looking characters were in at
tendance on the trial, and took a marked in
terest in its proceedings. The authorities
were wide awake however, and any attempt
at escape will prove rather dangerous.
CHOLERA IN FALL R1vER.-The Neo Bed
ford STANDARD is informed that the cholera has
been much more destructive in Fall River
than has been reported, and that the number
who have fallen victims to the disease cannot
be much short of hundred Up to last Sat
by three undertakes, and charged to the city,
in period of eight days.
The Irish among whom the ravages of the
disease are chiefly confined, are panic strick-
en-. When one of their number is attacked,
they at once desert him and give him up to
die. The authorities endeavor to alleviate the
sufferings of the unfortunate victims as much
as possible, but their humane efforts are in g
great measure frustrated by the panic and hor-
ror that have seized hold of the lower classes
of the Irish population.
Many most painful incidents have occurred
which would have brought tear to the eye
of the most stolid and Indifferent, and caused
a shudder at the seeming exhibitions Of bru-
tality and heartlessness on the part of the
friends of the attacked. But they deserve
our pity and commisseration. Ignorance and
superstition are chargable with their apparent
want of humanity. Every honest heart should
most devoutly pray that the scales may fall
from the eyes of these poor deluded people,
and that they may learn to practice temperance
and sobriety in their daily lives, and be deliv-
cred from that wicked and corrupt influence
that. is grinding them to the dust.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT CLINToN.-Tuss-
day Evening Mr.. David Haskell of the firm of
D. & w. H. Haskell grocers Of Clinton, went
into his cellar to draw some patent oil for
customer but through mistake he drew from
the wrong barrel and furnished the customer
with burning fluid instead. Discovering his
mistake Immediately Mr.. II. proceeded to the
cellar taking lantern upon his arm and COM
menced Withdrawing the bung from the fluid
barrel for the purpose of pouring back what
he had taken. On the instant that the bung
was removed the vapor from the fluid barrel
came in contact with the flame in the lantern,
setting the fluid on fire and exploding the
barrel. Mr.. Haskell was thrown to the farther
end of the cellar by the explosion and his
clothes, saturated with the burning fluid were
set OH fire, but he made his escape to the room
above and thence into the street, where he
threw himself upon the ground in an agony
of torture. With much difficulty the flames
were extinguished by covering him with dirt,
but he was so badly burned that he is not ex-
pected TO recover. The store of the Messrs.
Haskell was set on fire, but by the active ex"
ertions of the excellent fire department of
Clinton and of the citizens generally, it was
speedily got under, but not without consider
able damage to their stock.

inc baltimore anu OnlO nAi1TOuus
The resignation Of John II. Done, ESQ.,, late
master of transportation, was rendered early
in November, to take effect on the Both of that
month. The reluctance of the company to
part with him, however, induced him to remain
until the late meeting of the board of directors,
when his resignation was finally accepted, his
engagement with the Illinois Central Railroad
as its general superindent, being absolute. We
need not say that the regret of the Baltimore
and Ohio Company at Mr.. Done's withdrawal
is largely shared by the great business commu
nifty with whom the transportation masters
functions bring him in such extended inter-
course. In the comparatively short period
that he has been connected with its AFFAIRS
Mr. Done has rendered valuable service TO the
company, and has won high rank among the
first railway managers Of the country. We
have already noticed that the board has order
ed the preparation Of some testimonial OF
thanks for his efficient conduct in their service.
At the same time that Mr.. Done's resigna-
ton was accepted, the President of the com
pany nominated as his successor DIR. William
s. Woodside for long time connected with
its affairs in position of honor and RESPONSE
bility. For several years, from 1874 to l849,
we believe DIR. Woodside was the sole head Of
the transportation affairs, and from that period
to this has acted as the paymaster general to
the standing army Of nearly FIVE thousand
men, rank and 6le to be settled with each
month. DIR. Woodside has been esteemed as
an intelligent and diligent officer. He is said
Ito be systematic and prompt, and rigid adj
herent to discipline.
Mr.. VIM. Prescott Smith still retains his po-
sition as the assistant master Of transportation,
and Mr.. Louis M. Cole continues as auditor
and general ticket agent, both enjoying the
reputation Of faithful and competent officers.
An extension Of the organization is said to be
in contemplation, by which general freight
officer will be introduced, similar to the divi-
sion of labor as arranged upon other leading
transportation lines.
DIR. Woodside assumes his Office at very
important period in the affairs Of the company
At this time, as we are told, the utmost abili-
ties Of the road are taxed by the enormous
quantity Of freight offering from the great
west The average loading this month at
Wheeling for through freight per day, IS one
hundred cars with eight hundred tons of pro-
duce, besides some fifteen to twenty cars Of
live stock. In order to facilitate its transit,
the President has lately directed that the use
of the Kingwood Tunnel, THE formerly dan
gerous parts Of which have now been finally
and firmly arched and secured, shall be re-
sumed for the passage Of the freight trains.

One Week Later from Europe.
HALIFAX, Dec. l8.-The Cunard steamer
Asia arrived here this morning at 81 o'clock
with dates from Liverpool to the 9th inst.
The steamer Hermann sailed from Liverpool
on the 9th.
The ship Constitution, from New York, was
totally destroyed by fire in the river Mersey,
on the day after she arrived. Her cargo was
also destroyed, but the passengers baggage
was landed safely.
The English papers are filled with peace
rumors, but their assertions are totally ut vari-
ance with the continental press. The London
Times aud De Israeli's organ, the London
Press, asserts that peace is at hRnd-that
Austria is about to address an ultimatum to
Russia, summoning her, under threat Of
breaking off negotiations with her, to accept
such conditions of peace as the Western Powers
are now willing to assent to, but which they
will not agree to after another successful cam
paign.
The Berlin correspondence Of the London
Morning Chronicle says that Austria maintains
the validity of the treaty of December I'd, and
hence all attempts of the other German States
to exercise a pressure upon the Western
Powers, with a view to pacifcaton, have been
paralyzed. There are various reports Of at
tempts at negotiation, but the state of affairs
appears to stand thus: Austria has made a
communication to France embodying the terms
which she is prepared to propose to Russia as
an ultmatum. France has submitted this
communication to England, and both govern
ments have it now under consideration. The
terms are o great advance upon any yet offered,
but they are terms for Austria, not Russia.
Austria does not guarantee to join the allies
if the. ultimatum is rejected, but only to sus-
pend her relations with Russia.
The London Times says positively that the
treaty with Sweden has been signed at Stock
holm, while the Post firmly denies it.
