H@- President Pierce has called an
extra session Of Congress to meet on the
2lst inst, ON account Of the failure of
passage of the Army Appropriation Bill.
The House refused to recede from its
amendment to the bill--which was
" That no part of the military force Of
the United States herein provided for
shall be employed in aid Of the inforce-
ment of the enactments of the alleged
Legislative Assembly of the Territory
of Kansas, recently assembled at Shaw
nee Mission, until Congress shall have
enacted either that it was or was not a
valid Legislative Assembly, chosen in
conformity with the organic law by the
people of the said Territory"-aud the
Senate refused to pass the bill unless
the amendment was stricken out. We
see it stated that the session will not
last long, and that all attempts to gene
raj legislation will be resisted.

t6s- A fatal and melancholy accident

s0- A fatal and melancholy accident
occurred in this village, on Monday last,
by which boy, about seven years of
age, was killed and another boy about
five years old, was severy injured, both
children of Mr.. John Mcdonald; and
also girl, about eight years of age, was
seriously injurcd-the name of her
parents we did not'learn. The parents
of these children reside on Mechanic
street, near the lumber yard of Messrs.
G. Maxson & Co., where these, and
other children in the neigLborhood, have
been in the habit of going to play, and
while doing so, pile of four-inch plank
fell over on to them. 1t seems almost
Providential that all of them were not
killed. Two men were at work in the
yard--one the father of the injured girl
who released them as soon as possible.

M We visited. q few dav. s;,..

s~ We visited, few days since,
the mill Of Messrs. Babcock & Moss. at
Stillmanville, where we saw in operation
Scholfeld's Improved Loom, which will
weave plain or fancy goods. The i'm
provement on the loom consists in the
driving of the cam wheel, on which it
acts as an intermittent or variable mo-
ton of such a nature as to concentrate
the action at the instant Of raising the
harness, thereby retardiug the motion
during the intervals of change, which,
with other advantages, causes it to run
with greater speed, and with much more
ease and smoothness than the common
cashmere and satinett looms. We should
think, from what we saw, and heard
from those who are competent to judge,
that it has many advantages over the
various other looms now in use. We
hope the pattentee, Mr., e. A. Schol-
field, of this town, will be abundantly
remunerated for this invention.

sS- Among the new things of the

sD- Among the new things of the
age, is the manufacture of shoes by
cementing together the pieces of leather
Of which they are composed. A shoe
is thus made without peg or a stitch :,
which it is said will never rip, and can
not be torn apart in the seams, because
the leather will tear first. A large com
pany has been started for this manu-
facture at Ballard Vale, their process
being to cement the shoes on the com
mon wooden lasts, and then dry them in
ovens But we understand an improved
process has been invented, by which q
pair of shoes can be completed in five
minutes. The pieces are cemented on
a hollow metallic last, into which steam
is introduced by turning cock, and its
heat sets the cement almost instan
taneously.

nD- A terrible storm occurred in the
eighborhood of New Orleans on Sltur-
day 9th inst, which lasted until Monday
night Last Island place of summer
resort, was completely submerged.
Every building on the Island is said to
have been swept away, and no less than
1877 lives are reported to have been
lost The steamer Star left New Or
leans on Saturday with $50 passengers,
and was completely wrecked before
reaching Last Island. 1t is hoped the
passengers were saved by another steam
er, their fate is unknown. Other islands
were submerged, and the loss of prop
erty in buildings, crops, &c. was i'm
mense.
