Phillips speech at Brooklyn, n. Y. and fuh
report of the meeting at Boston. 1t is
valuable document, and will find many pur-
chasers, who will read it and preserve it for
future reference. Mr.. B. X. Conant has the
agency for selling it in Worcester county, and
it is for sale by S. Thompson & Co.
The papers announce the deathtsof Mrs.
Slater, the second wife and widow of Samuel
Slater, the father of the cotton manufacture in
this county, and for long time resident of
Webster, in this county Mrs. Slater was
Scotch lady, and at the time Of her last mar
riage was the widow of Mrs. Parkinson, well
known manufacturer and merchant of Boston,
who while living was one of the proprietors Of
the Beaman cotton mill in West Boylston,
She was woman of culture, of ability and
great energy of character. She has gone to
her rest at a ripe old age.
INTERESTING LAwsUIT.-A suit has been
commenced in the Superior Court for Suffolk
county, against Hon. Alexander Dewitt of
Oxford, which will be of a good deal Of inter-
est to the public. Col. Dewitt was executor
legacy of $1,000 to the American Tract Socie-
ty. Alter taking counsel in the matter, Col.
Dewitt paid over the money to the American
Tract Society in New York; and now the So
ciety of the same name in Boston sues for the
money. The probability is that the suit has
been commenced for the purpose of determin-
ing judicially which of the two societies is the
true one, and entitled to funds given by tesla
tors.-Pallodium.
Fowl CoNDUCT.-On the occasion of the
firemen's annual ball at North Brookield, last
Thursday, a sharp creditor of the person who
provided the supper, caused the poultry pro-
cured for the same, to be attached, to secure
his debt; it was too late TO get more, and for
time the prospect looked dubious, but it finally
worked just as the creditor supposed it would,
that is, the tiremen paid the debt and extricat-
ed the turkeys and chickens from the clutches
of the law.-FHchbmy ReveiHe.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT BY A RUNAWAY TEAM.
On Tuesday, while three ladies were driving
down Vernon street, with Daniel r. Pratt's
horse and sleigh, the horse, becoming fright.
ened, broke from control, and ran with great
speed down the hill, encountering, at the cor
ner Of Millbury and Green streets, four horses
with loaded team. The ladies were thrown
violently out, and were all injured One of
them, the daughter of Mr.. Pratt, was taken up
insensible, and is now confined to her ROOM
The most serious injuries were caused by the
four horses walking over them after the collis-
ion. The runaway, leaving the sleigh behind,
continued his career as far as Park street,
where he was stopped.

WORCESTER MOZART SocIETY.-We are
very glad to hear that this association, so long
identified with the musical history of our city
is neither dead nor sleeping. Each successive
Monday evening, witnesses full ranks at its
rehearsals.
Long ago its members learned that excel
ence in any department of art is an attainment
to be had only at the price of hard labor, great
patience and persistent effort, not gift bestow-
ed by some mirace-worker without regard to
merit.
Another lesson we trust they have mastered
which tradition has not given musical people
as class that of a generous interest in and
hearty appreciation of each others improve
ment. Musicians are subject to peculiar trials
indhis direction which can be overcome only
by being torewarned and so forearmed against
them. That the members of the Mozart, so
far as we know, are not obnoxious to special
criticism in this direction, we name to their
high credit.
In passing we will mention one severe test
of their regard for the society through
which they have passed successfully since last
season. We mean that caused by the resigna-
ton of Mr.. e. Hamilton of the place of Direct
or, which he had held so long and filed so
well. 1t was an event they would gladly have
postponed had the decision rested with them
but it did not. Thankful tor the great service
he had rendered to them as well as this commu-
nifty, they unanimously acquiesced in a decision
which he had an unquestioned right to make.
With sincere expressions of mutual respect
and good will their official relationship ended,
leaving untouched the higher and more endur-
ing one formed on personal regard

VENERABLE Worcestershire trial of the
cause, North Brookfield VS.. Warren, now pend
ing in the Superior Court, has required the at
tendance, as Witnesses of the most venerable
body Of men who were probably ever brought
together on similar occasion. OF the forty
five witnesses summoned, there are fifteen,
nearly all from Warren, whose united ages
amount to about twelve hundred years, av-
eraging nearly eighty years each. The old
est is Dea. John Phillips of Sturbridge, who
has arrived at the age of ninety and one-half
years today. He gave in his testimony, Tues
day, and showed himself to be as bright as
many man half century his junior in years,
reading piece of manuscript placed before
him. readily, without the aid of glasses. He
is hale and hearty as ordinary men of sixty.
His son, Col. Samuel Phillips, also witness
in the case, is seventy -three years old.
The next oldest witness is Mr.. Isaac Pat
rick of Warren, who is eighty-two, and good
for many years yet Two others are seventy
eight years of age, and the ages of five others
range from seventy-fve to seventy-seven, and
six others still are from sixty nine to seventy,
making fifteen above the aye allotted in Scrip
ture as the limit to the life of man. Two of
these witnesses are ladies, one seventy-s six, and
the other seventy years of age.
All of the witnesses except the Phillipses,
father and son, are stopping at the Lincoln
House, and a more hale, hearty, and venera-
bic body of men are rarely seen together.

support of a pauper, VIM. NJ. ,Chickering, was
