watch aud all his money If the bru,es
would but spare him, bat they little heed
ed his pleaaings. 1t is thought they would
have murdered him outright, had they not
been interfered with by three other men
who happened along. Complaint was i'm.
mediately made to Grand Juror Conger
ON behalf Of the State. The assailants
were arrested by officer Wood and brought
before Chester Spencer, Esq, who held
them to bail in the sum of one thousand
dollars each for their appearance at Court,
next fall. Their father became surety for
them, to the required amount, but they
were subsequently brought up to answer
for private damages, and were again put
under one thousand dollar bonds each,
when Mr.. Sheldon Bliss became bail for
them. Bad ram was the cause of the out
rage, as usual.-RwlaRd Herald.

MANUFACTURING IN THE WEsr.-The
Chicago Republican says:
More than forty new factories, the ma
iority of them, we believe, for the produce
ton OF wooden goods, are 70 be erected in
Illinois this summer. The capital EN-
ployed in them will exceed million dol
lars. The benefit of these new undertake
ings will be great to all classes of the COM
munily, bat the interest which will be
most profiIed by them will be that Of agri.
culture"
We commend the above paragraph to
the notice of our Vermont friends. viii
Vermont farmers and wool growers send
their sons and daughters to Illinois to find
employment in wooden factories, and to
engage in other avocations, for which the
extension of manufacturing creates de-
mand, or Nill they help create an induce
ment for remaining at home and thus pro-
mote the growth Of our own population
and wealth? Are they really anxious to
see their own State prosper, or are they
contented to jog along and see our popula-
ton running away P Rutland Herald.
The Herald is not only entirely correct
in its remarks above, but also in It's article
some weeks since, which we copied at the
time. There is no one thing more needed
in Vermont, than increased enterprise in
manufacturing. If this were increased,
other interests would be stimulated also,
and this leads us to say that at no point in
Vermont is there as good place for man.
ufacturing enterprise as right here in Bel
lows Falls. There is water power enough
and space enough here to make this place
a city of twenty thousand population. 1t
only wants enterprise and capital, and
though nothing could be done without cap
ital, it is equally certain nothing will ever
be done without enterprise. Let there be
enterprise sufficient to invite capital, and
with both united, Bellows Falls would RI
val any other town in the State in business
property.

SAD AND FATAL AccIDENT.-A most
sad and fatal accident occurred at Chester
on Saturday last, by which Mason G,
Howard, of Grafton, promising young
man of about twenty-five years, lost his
life in most shocking manner. He was
employed in Russell Cobleigh & Co.'s
cab shop, and while at work in the base
ment was caught by revolving shaft,
and before aid could reach him was torn
and mutilated in most frightful and
shocking manner. His clothes were COM
pletely stripped from his body, and the
left leg broken twice above the knee joint
while below it the flesh was torn off, the
bones protuding several inches Drs
Whiting and Harrington were called, and
rendered every attention possible, but he
only survived few hours.
Young Howard was an exemplary
young man, highly esteemed by all who
knew him. He had lived in Chester
about year, and was member of the
10th regiment, and passed safely through
the dangers of Gettysburg to meet a VIC
lent death in the peaceful walks Of life a
home. Some four months ago he. wa
canght by shaft near where he wa:
killed, but escaped by catching hold of a
beam. His sudden and fearful death cast
gloom over the entire community in
which he lived. His funeral was attend
ed on Sunday afternoon at the Baptist
church in Chester, Rev. c. G. Gurr off
eating, assisted by Rev. Mr.. Fairbanks,
services in the other churches being sus-
pended, and the house was filled to over
flowing with mourners and sympathizing
friends. The remains were carried to Graf
ton for burial, attended by his employers,
shopmates and othes friends, who also
assumed the expenses of the funeral. 1t
was Almost solemn occasion and will long
be remembered.

The Ordination.

The ordination of Rev. N. Pierce as
pastor of the Baptist Church in this vii
lage, took place on Wednesday evening,
and the services throughout were of ex-
ceeding interest. The sermon by DR..
Eddy, of Boston, was not only able, but
eloquent, and deeply interested his audi
ence. His liberality in the matter of
written or oral discourses met with our
hearty appreciation at least. He says let
them be written or not, just as the minis
ter can do best. His remarks on earnest
ness were not only earnest themselves,
but eloquent. The opening prayer was
made by Rev. Mr.. Stevens of the Con-
gregational Church, of this place. Charge
by Rev. S. f. Brown, OF Proctorsville,
formerly of this place. Right hand of
fellowship by Rev. Mr.. Wilbur, of Sax
toms River. Ordination prayer by Rev.
MIR. Coon, of Londonderry. Address to
the people by Rev. Mr.. Gurr, of Chester
