STATE buEATIc HOSPITAL AT NORTHAMPTON.
1T is expected that the Governors proclama-
ton will open the new State Lunatic Hospital,
at Northampton, for the reception of patients,
sometime during the present week. The cost Of
the edi6ce has been about S3l5,0O0. The Bos-
ton Advertiser. in describing it, says;
''rhere are few single buildings of equal size,
standing apart from other buildings, anywhere
upon this continent, if we except some of the
public offices at Washington. The mere dimen-
SONS do not give an adequate idea of the aspect
which the Northampton hospital presents to the
eye. The length of the main building is $40
feet; from each end of which wings extend back
about 200 feet The whole perimeter of the
building, as measured by the copper gutter at
tached to the caves, exceeds one mile. The mum
Der of windows is a thousand, and OF panes OF
glass there are more than twenty thousand. The
whole capacity of the hospital, without crowd
ing, 1872 The rooms for the patients, as is usual
in insane hospitals, open from separate halls or
wards"
The internal arrangements OF the building, for
water, gas, cooking apparatus, ventilation, warm
ing, washing, &C., are admirable and extensive,
and on the most approved scientific basis for
health and convenience.
Fifty eight of the inmates of the Lunstic Hos
pital in this city are to be transferred to North
ampton, and it is probable that part Of the pa
TENTS at Taunton will be transferred to WoIces-
ter, and that further transfer thence to North
ampton will afterwards be made. The number of
insane persons belonging to the four western
counties, and requiring hospital treatment, is not
of itself sufficient to half fill the institution at
Northampton.

THE FLOWER OF THE FLooK.-By Pierce Ega

to E. D. Long, Price fifty cents in paper

The name of Egan is one familiar to romance
readers, one who is always able to create and
sustain the highest degree Interest in his works,
without any deviation from purity of thought,
word, or suggestion, and. in that now before US.
there is an ease, sprightness, and vivacity, that
is very charming, and we hazard nothing in say
ing that it will everywhere be received with IA
vor. The London E1an,iner-very high author
ity, by the way-says of it :--'Modern fiction has
no pages that surpass the Flower of the Flock,
in all the qualities that go to make great ro-
nance. In plot, characters, language, it is all
zone pure and perfect chrysolite. " 1t is favor
able sign of the times, that works of character,
like this, seem to be displacing the light, loose,
and trashy writings in fiction. that have had such
a wide circulation for few years past.

A woman and Her Lorer Killed.

GOSHEN, N. Y, Aug. l4.-Friday night,
at about IL clock, our village was alarmed
by the intelligence that most diabolical
double murder had been committed at the
house of Charles Reeves, in Hamptonburgh,
about two miles from here on the Newbu1gh
road. Mr.. Reeves and his family were absent
from home, leaving their house in the charge
OF their three servants named VIM. Saun-
ders, Peter Shcreah. and Margaret Shealv. 1t
seems that Peter and Margaret were to be
married next week, and they had been pass
ing the evening together in the room Of the
latter. At about eight clock, just as he was
leaving Margaret's room, Peter was met at the
door by William, who deliberately and with
out word passing between either, shot him
directly through the right breast. Peter,
turning back, opened the door through which
he had just passed, and fell dead across the
threshold.
The murderer then rushing into the room
over the dead body of his first victim, shot
Margaret through the left breast, the ball
passing out behind just below the shoulder
blade. She turned, ard, jumping out of the
open window to the ground, some twenty feet
or more, managed to crawl through the gar
den and orchard, nearly quarter OF mile,
to house of Mr.. Case, who Immediately
gave the alarm. The murderer has not vet
been arrested, or even seen since, but the
Who'll country is aroused and searching for
hun. The woman is still alive, but can't sur
ylve but few hours longer.

MAJOR MCCULLOUGH ON HIS WAY HoME.-
Major McCulloagh-on of the Commissions
ers upon the part Of the United States Gov
eminent to negotiate with the Mormons in
Utah-passed through our city yesterday on
his way East, and honored us with call at
the office of the Enquirer. The Major was in
the enjoyment of excellent health, and came
through from Salt Lake City to Leavenworth
(Kanzas) in thirty-three days, by an overland
journey across the plains. The Major has no
confidence in the perpetuity OF the peace
made with the Mormons, unless the Govern
ment keeps at Salt Lake City stong military
force-say from 800 to 1000 men. In re-
gard to the population of the Mormons, the
Major estimates it at about 100000 They
could bring into the field about 900 fighting
men, of whom 700 are excellent troops and
efficient mountainous. The Major stated in
the course of conversation, that he advised
Brigham Young, if he desired to found great
state and hierarchy, TO pull up his stakes and
remove to some other country. This prophet
afterwar,l declared that he allowed no man to
advise him-to stand between him and God,
from whom alone he took his counsels. 1t ID
Major McCullough's decided opinion that the
United States should maintain there very
strong military government, for the Mormons
have no love for our institutions, and can only
be kept in subsection by coercive measures
To effect that, it would be necessary to repea
the law organizing the Territory, and vest all
authority in Governor and Council, appoint.

A GOOD SIGMA very agreeable feature
that attends the revival of the manufacturing
business is the appearance of the iobbers in
our market, buying directly from the manu-
tacturers. There is more of this now than
there has ever been before, and is, of course,
mutually advantageous, The purchases are
generally for cash. Some of the maEufac-
turers are selling large portions of their
product in this way, both here and in the
larger markets of distribution. 1t is not prac-
tica6le to do away with the agency of com
mission merchants in the sale of domestic
goods, and no reasonable man expects to see
1t accomplished; but great deal can be done,
and great deal more than is done even now,
in bringing the producer and the consumer
nearer together, and dispensing with the
seTvlcea of middle men, who add nothing to
the value of the goods and who do nothing
towards their distribution that might not be
done quite as well by the parties whom they
separate. Precedence Journal.

The BETHEL BANK RoBBERY No new de-
velopments in regard to the robbery Of this
bank, have yet been made. 1t appears that
the bank is kept in one story brick build
ing, and the vault was made very strong and
supposed to be burglar proof 1t has COM
plicated lock, one bolt of which slides up into
the masonry over the door. There is space
about two feet under the floor, and after the
robbers had secured their trap door, in the
floor, they had this space to work in under the
building and scatter around the debris which
they made in picking out the foundation and
the bottom of the vault. The general impress
sion is that two men must have been employ
ed on the work for ten nights. The putty
with which they stopped the holes bored out
for the entrance OF the saw into the floor
boards, had become quite hard at the time of
the discovery, The plug which they inserted
in the lock, delayed the discovery several
hours,

A SELF VENT1LAr1NG PBD.-We have been
shown the model of a selt-ventilatine bed.
recently invented and patented by Mr.. Tolman
of Massachusetts, which apparently possesses
all the necessary requisites for health and
comfort. The bed is made hollow, but is
supported by number of spiral springs, ar
ranged and fastened in manner entirely
new; in the bottom are valves with clappers,
inserted so as to be acted on by the movement
of the sleeper. Thus the hollow space or air
chamber is constantly filed with fresh sup.
ply of pure air, which only escapes through
the cushion or top of the bed. BY this simple
contrivance, every time the occupant moves, a
cooling current of mir is sent through and
around the bed, carrying off all the perspira-
ton as well as the fetid matter generally
inhaled in a sleeping apartment.- baltimore

BY TELEGRAPH.


TRINITY BAY, N. F., Aug 13.-All the ar
rangements for working the cable are conided
exclusively to the assistant of Pr f. White
house, the eleetrician-in-chief of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company; aud as all the operations
are conducted privately. and they decline TO
give any information beyond the fact that
signals are successfully aud constantly pass
ing through the cable from the telegraph Office
here TO the telegraph Office at Valenta, Ire
land, all rumors representing different state
OF things are uniounded, although it is not
known, except to the electricians Immediately
connected with the cable, what progress is
being made in working Prof. Whitehouse s
recording instruments. We hazard little in
saying that it has been found as yet impossi-
BILE to work them successfully. No doubt,
however, is entertained that the Hughes in
ventioD, when ready, will overcome all diff
culties.

INDGA.-The Calcutta Englishman has the
following observations on the general condition
of affairs in India:
"We, therefore, cannot hesitate any longer
to impress upon the attention of our readers
at home our present position, which will he
best understood when we state that while the
British hold every fortress and place of i'm
portance, throughout the disaifected provinces,
the country itself may be said to be in pos
session of the rebels Delhi, Agra, Jhansi,
Barely, Shajehonpore, Calpee, Lucknow,
Cawnpore, and Allahabad are protected by
European troops, but our authority scarcely
extends beyond the reach of our guns, and
the intervening districts are overrun by rebels
and budmashes, who move about as they
please, marking their course by plumber and
destruction OF property, and setting at defiance
every attempt 10 restore order and tranquility,
Indigo factories public and private bunga-
lows, and railway depots have been burned,
and We are thankful that these deeds have
not been accompanied by the murder of Eu-
ropeans, though, doubtless not for want of
inclination on the part of the rebels, but want
of opportunities.
1t will be seen that our troops have again
been engaged on several occasions with the
enemy, and although in each instance per-
fectly successful, yet the majority OF the reb.
els have, as usual, managed to escape. This,
however, can hardly be wondered at, for in
the absence of adequate cavalry, and with the
dreadful heat of the season, pursuit of the
fugitiyes would have been useless. and in all
probability only added to the frghtful mortal
ity OF our brave men who fall daily victims to
the sun. We are not over stating the fact by
mentioning that un-stroke and heat apo
plexy are regularly decimating the several
corps engaged in the suppression of the re-
belion-an apprehension which we have fire.

Wednesday, the 18th, fifteen valuable sheep, be-
longing to John Smith of Ware. killed
outright, seven more SO badly wounded that they
cannot live, and nine more severely bitten and

the flock, and they weae kept in pasture bor-
dering on Novels pond, in tbs. outskirts Of Palm
er, about mile from Mr.. Smiths house. Very
vaTly in the morning of the 18th the attention OF
Mt. Whiting, resident of the vicinity, was
called to the place, by the cutlery made BY the
dogs. On repairing to the spot, he found the dogs
and sheep all in the middle ofthe pond. 1t seems
that the dogs had worried the sheep till they took
TO the water, in hopes of escape. Here, the dogs
had committed the mischief above stated, and had
become Infatuated with the blood of their victims

Mr.. Whiting. Whether the owners of the dogs
are able to respond to Mr.. Smith in damages, we
are not informed But such facts as these show
the wisdom and necessity Of stringent dog law,
and of its faithful enforcement. Whether that
of the last session is sufficient, remains to be
proved Some think it is not. 1t is, however,
good step in the right direction and, if tits found
necessary, it can be amended hereafter.
