The CELEBRArloN.-The fourth was
celebrated in this town BY large con-
course of people from all sections OF
this county and from Winneshiek and
Chi ckasaw counties. The weather was
very fine and every one seemed to en-.
Joy the day with its hallowed memories.
The grafton delivered by Col j L. Foster
was highly creditable to the head and
heart Of that gentleman, and entirely
satisfactory to the large concourse as
sembled to listen to it. Religious dis
courses, and fourth Of July oraticns

DEATH OF SENATOR CoLLAMER,-We
are panied to be under the necessity OF
announcing the death of Hon. JaGob
Collamer, United States Senator He
died at his residence in Woodstock on
the evening of Thursday, the 9th inst,
at the age of "a years. In his death,
not only his family and town, but also
the State aud the Nation have sustained
an irretrievable loss.
1t is safe to say that there was not
another man in the country whose spot
less character and sound judgment COM
manded more profound respect than
his. We forbear further remarks, for
we presume that, at a proper time, a
suitable tribute will be paid to the men,
DRY of the deceased by some one whose
personal and official acquaintance will
enable him to do the subject justice.

A CRITICAL TIME.-The steamship Col
umbia arrived at Havana, passed through
the recent terrible hurricane in the Gulf,
and was saved only by great effort on
the part of her officers. Heavy seas
passed over her, washing away several
horses, and doing much damage. The
ship was on her beam ends, one of the
chains of the rudder broken, the engine
stopped, the light put out and all the
passengers thought their last hour WIS
come. The Chief Engineer succeeded in
replacing part of the machinery that
had dropped out, by the inclination Of
the vessel, thus enabling the engine to
operate again, while the Second Engin.
Ger stood with a pistol in his hand, and
kept back the firemen, who were about
TO rush on deck, and blythe greatest pos
sible exertion the ship began to right.
By midnight the hurricane ceased, and
the ship was saved. The passengers IN
tend to present gold medal to Captain
Barton; and sum OF money to each of
! the crew.

BAD ADvIoE.--Some northern DEM
ocrats are at their old tricks again-giv-
ing bad advice to the South. Infuen-
tial men in all the southern states have
been advised not TO repudiate the rebel
debt nor adopt the constitutional amend
ment; and if their senators and repre-
sentatives are rejected by Congress be-
cause they fall on these points, they are
told to stand firm and wait till the dem
ocracy whips ont the republican on
these issues, when the old southern al.
Hes will get control again and hold a
long lease of power. These intrigues
are supposed to explain the unfavorable
change IL Mississippi and the strong
stand made against reputation in the
| Georgia legislature. rs

AID took place yesterday afternoon. AT

lowed by the mourners in carriages,
were escorted by q long procession OF
Freemasons Of the Rutland, Cavendish,
Chester and Bellows Falls lodges in
mourning regalia, to the Cemetery, where
the appropriate and interesting burial
service of the Masonic Order was per-
formed. The bearers were all conduct
ors or other employees of the railroad
among whom we recognized Mr. Down
err Mr.. Parkhurst and Mr. Frost. The
usual emblems were thrown upon the
coffin, which was closed and placed in
the vault, and the procession returned
from tne cemetery in the same order as
they came.

For LIBER1A.-The ship Fl. P. Russell
sailed from Baltimore, Md, on the 4th
inst, with one hundred and seventy four
freedmen for Liberia, under the care OF
the American Colonization Society. They
were from Lynchburg, Va, and its vi
cinity. A large number OF them are
members of the Baptist Church, and the
adults are generally mechanics. An eye
witness Of the parting scene at Lynch
burg, says, Thousands were out, appro-
pirate religious exercises were observed,
and many were affected to tears. 1t was
a notable day in that city" This is the
advance of large numbers that are pre-
pairing to go.

DEATH or HoN. WIN. Il. CAlHoUN.-
Hon. WIN. Z. Calhoun Of Springfield died
at his residence in that city on Wednes-
day. He was born in Boston III 1896,
was a graduate Of Yale College, and had
had been much in public life. H9repre-
scented Springfield in the House of Rep
resentatives from 1926 to 1885, and was
Speaker for two years, and was men,
Der again Ia 1851. He was y member OF
the Senate several years was Secretary
OF State three years, and member of
Congress from 1885 to 1S43. He has also
held other important offices. The Re-
publican thus speaks Of him, and the
testimony that it bears TO his word as
man will be heartily endorsed by those
WAC knew him, both in public and pri-
vate life:
Mr.. Calhoun was beyond any other
man OF past or present generation the
public man Of Springfield. No man was
ever more popular among US than he !;
no other citizen ever held so many high
public trusts, or for SO long as he; and
no man, perhaps, ever gave more salts
faction TO his constituents, or more
faithfully fulfilled his duties"

LOVE AND MURDER.-Some three or
fur years ago, a man by the name Of
Hubbard, becoming alarmed at the pros
pect of the war, sought refuge at the
house of one Benjamin Cole, just across
the line, in Stanstead. Not the least
among the attractions of the house OF
Cole was fair maiden of sixteen sum-
mers. After while affection between
Hubbard and the damsel became mutu-
al, and gradually increased until there
was strong indications Of union Of
hearts as well as a reunion of States.
These prospects proved rather displeas-
ing to father Bsnjamin, who resolved
within himself to settle the question by
applying an axe to the Uranium of the
bold skedaddler, who had dared to make
love to his daughter. Accordingly, on
Monday of last week he proceeded to
chop the said Hubbard in order to break
up the match. After dealing several
blows on the back of Hubbard's head
he became terrified at the amount o.
mischief he was doing, and in fit Of
craziness "a attempted to drown him.
self In the lake.-A cold bath and the
entreaties OF woman soon overcame his
courage and he took to his bed, where
