n9- A notrious burglar, named Rockwell,
drowned himself on Saturday evening while in
charge of Detectives Lowell and James, of
Syracuse, under the following circumstances, as
stated by the Rochester Uaion:
These officers were bringing him from
Hudson, where they had arrested him, to
Albany, in the New York express train of
Saturday evening. As they were crossing the
river at Albany, one of the officers samed
stood by Rockwell'S side, the prisoner being
handcuffed. Our informant, who was CON
yersing with the officer, remarked Rockwell's
advancing step or two, and in a moment
more he darted forward to the bow of the
boat and plunged into the river. The boat
was stopped and search was made for the vii
ain, dead or alive, but it was made in vain"

CHILD wfrH rwo HEADs- Successful Am
,,,tation of one.-A, correspondent of the
North Andoyer (Me. ) Adroeate says; j
"On the 18th of September last, child
was born in the town of Palmyra, having two
heads The names of the parents are John
and Mary Ward The first, a natural head,
seemed as nearly perfect as that Of an infant
usually is--the second, an unnatural head, was
connected by a neck of about the usual length
and size, to the back or poSterlor part of the
first one, a little above the point where the
head aud neck naturally join. Both heads
we're OF about the same size, and facing oppo-
site ways. Hair grew perfectly natural on
both scalps, but the second head was entirely
wanting in features-there were few small
irregularities were the face or features should
have been, appearing as if nature had attemp
ted to form features but without success. The
health of the child seemed good, and it grew
we'll until the 10th of the present month, Zoe
tober), when the unnatural head was success
fully amputated at the neck by DR.. J. c, Man
son, of Pittsfeld; dissection of this showed
the skull to be composed of bone aud cartilage ;
also, what should have been bone in the neck,
proved to be cartilage The head contained a
substance almost perfectly resembling brain,
but of less density. 1t has now been some
five days since the operation, and the child is
fast recovering.

marvel that Dr. Woodham experienced a
feeling of relief and pleasure as he he threw
off his snowy outer garments, looked up
on his beautiful wife and lovely little ones

"Why, it was deIirium tremens; think

raved wildly and unconnectedly, yet in

Jonathan swift.

Such was Jonathan Swift-in his day
the man of the Irish people-and ,probab
ly, the most powerful Irish genius that
ever lived. Endowed with an incompatible
variety of mental powers and an inteSe vi
tality, favored by circumstances, he would
have made the most effective statesman of
the age. In speculative insight, in scope
and practical energy, he would have prov
ed himself to Lord Chatham, and the su
perior of Edmund Burke himself.
Infamed with generous hatred Of all
untruth, crooked counsels, selfshnes and
intrigue possessed of official power he
would have used it with an admirable eX-
perience of the public necessities, and with
that high purpose Of affecting the general
good, which is ever strongest and most
active, in great natures. But men, like
him, original, selfsustained, independent in
soul, infexibe and proud, seldom make
their way to places of executive distinction
and power, these, generally, being the re-
ward of menial services, prevarication,
trickery, obsequiousness, faculty of fam
iliar adaptation, and certain mean dex-
terity in managing the nominating conven
tions and disbul sing magnates of society.
In 1927, having earnestly expressed de
sire to have some official control of public
affairs in Ireland, believing he could be OF
service to her in a sphere ofpoitcal activ
ity and influence, Sir Robert Walpole, the
Prime Minister, to whom he had laid bare
the miserable and appalling condition OF
the country, took good care to prevent his
having any such control His bold, d,robust,
intractable genius was not suited to the
low pettifogging policy, the cosspiIacles
and lodges of the Castle. When Lord
Cartaret, the Lord Lieutenant, refused to
make him trustee of the linen board, or
even justice of lie peace, his excellency
fatteringly observed:
why Mr.. Dean, yol must surely des
pise these feathers-they are utterly be-
meath the consideration Of such a man as
you are =
my Lord" was Deans reply, II do
not despise them, but well know, that
were jobber, governed by your excel
lency aud suffering public abuses to pass
unnoticed, or where | a member of parlia-
ment, voting for the court and selling the
country, your excellency would readily
grant my request
What, think you, was his exceilency's s
reply to this stern and scathing speech? 1t
was an honest one-a brave one.
"What you say, sir, is literally true, and
for this reason YOU must hold me excused y
And for this reason, too, did Jonathan
Swift, scorning to work in plated harness
with the common stud of politicians, stand
apart in Ireland-sincere, incorruptibe
fearless, solitary and imperious,neye
just, humane, charitable and gracions, as
| Pope asserts him to have been-to the end
unpurchased and uncompromised--the the
meridian splendor of his-intellect not the
less memorable, that its expiring rays lit uT
a wreck drifting to the verge of the eterna
sea, and We're extinguished in desoation

L1fe--A Work man Buried In
Il Well for Nine Hours.

We have the following particulars Of the
burial Of workman at Roxbury, yester
| day, in well thirty feet deep and his for
tunate rescue alive, after remaining en-
| tombed in mass of rocks and dirt for
over nine hours. The mans name is Dan
icl Flynn, and was employed by Mr. Ma
than G. Conant to clean out a we'll in his
yard He commenced his work about
! eight O'Clock. and about half past ten o'clock
having taken off his rubber boots, which
he wore to protect himself from small
| quantity of water in the bottom, he started
to ascend by means of the rocks on the
sides. When he had climbed about three
or four feet, the we'll on one side gave way,
throwing him to the bottom, and the whole
mass of rocks caved in upon him, with
large quantities of rocks from the sides, so
that the well appeared filed with solid
layers to within two three feet of the top.
| The noise of the falling stones attracted the
inmates of the house, when an alarm was
given, and an excited crowd soon assem-
bed. The probability of the buried mans
escape did not occur to any one, when his
voce was suddenly heard coming from
thirty feet below the surface.
Some six or eight men were immediate
lv set at work throwing out the dirt and
rocks, and as soon as they had got to a
depth, which required it, windlass was
used to facilitate the work. The voice Of
the man could constantly be heard implor-
ing them to relieve him, and indicating
that bis position was very painful. After
nine hours constant labor, the workman
was reached and rescued from his perious
situation. 1t seems that when the wall
fell he was forced against one side of the
well, and closely packed in there by the
rocks and dirt, so that he could not move
at all, and scarcely breathe. One large
rock fell against his head inflicting severe
bruise, and others rolling against his head
prevented him string at all during the
whole long day. His legs were consider
ably hurt, and his body and limbs covered
with bruises, but no bones were broken,
and 10 serious injuries of any kind caused.
lie was carried into Mr.. Conant's house as
soon as rescued, aud DR.. Cummings at
tended him. He still lies there on cot
considerably stiff and sore, but with prob
ability of a complete recovery IN day or
| two This Is one of the most remarkable
escapes of the kind ever recorded The
man owes his life entirely to the peculiar
manner in which two large stones caught
against each other and against the sides
| of the well, forming an arch over his head
