A heart rending accident occurred at the
mills of Major Warren, on Beals street
yesterday, which resulted in the almost
immediate death Of Miss j. Denman, Of
Port Gibson, Mississippi.
Miss Denman came to this city several
days ago, and was to return home on Mon.
day, to make preparations for her ap.
preaching marriage with Major Warner, of
Port Gibson, to whom she had been en-
gagged for some time. Doubtless she had
purchased her bridal trousseau, aud was
happily contemplating the event so soon to
transpire. Yesterday, in company with
two young ladies of this city Miss Capers;
and Miss Walker--she visited the mills
above mentioned; an inspection Of the pre-
misses was suggested to which ready assent
was given. Approaching too near the ma
chinery, Miss Denman's dress was caught,
and she was drawn between two wheels
and mangled in horrible manner. She
survived but few minutes. Nemphi

The WIFE What can be truer or more
beautiful than this tribute to women? II
is from the pen Of Daniel Webster: "May
it please your honors, there is nothing up
on this earth that can compare with the
faithful attachment of wife; no creature
who for the object of her love is 50 indom-
table, so persevering, so ready to suffer
and to die. Under the most depressing
circumstances woman's weakness becomes
mighty power, her timidity becomes fear
less courage, all her shrinking passes away,
and her spirit acquires the firmness of
marble-adamantine firmness- when cir
circumstances drive her to put forth all
her energies under the inspiration of her
affection" ta..

Stravs.
IN. NJ. P" late CoxS. correspondent
of the Lacrosse Democrat, rode from
Bridgeport to Milford, to SEQ the Straw
works and other manufactures of that vii
lage. We give extracts: .....
. THE STRAW WORKS a
cover several acres of ground close to the
waters edge, and give employment to
about twelve hundred persons in the va
rious departments. Straw hats are mad
here for men, ladies and children--from a
common article to the finest Panama hat
worth thirty dollars each at wholesale
We passed from the well furnished business
office into the manufacturing departments,
going from room to room, deeply interes
ted in witnessing the process of making a
hat, from the braid to the packing ROOM
There are rooms for sewing the braid to
gether into sort OF "straw blanket so to
speak. This is soaked, steamed, sized,
shaped, pres sed, bleached, moulded, finish
ed, labelled, numbered, trimmed, packed
and cased passing from room to room
as each workman does his part, till the
straw braid comes forth a beautiful fabric
dundreds OF styles are made here-seyeral
millions OF hats being turned ou catch
year.
The braid is mostly imported from Italy,
we believe. 1t comes duly assorted, and
is furnished very cheap. The price Of la
Dor in that country ranging from three to
six cents day for those engaged in such
business as straw braiding ..
Most Of the persons employed here are
girls-some six hundre young ladies being
engaged here constantly. A large amount
OF work is taken home by parties living in
or cut of town and done by the piece.
The prices paid for labor range from
nine to fifteen dollars per week for men,
and from four to eight dollars a week for
women. From this earning the operative
lives comfortably hut not extravasantly
Milford has about three thousand inhabi |
tants, depending, in great measure, upon
the works spoken of for support.

We should not like to live in Milford
for all Il is a beautiful spot, and strongly
democratic. There are too many girls
there! Just think of an army of girls
going heauless home every night-the
curls, bright eyes, cherry lips, smiles, erin.
olne, waterfalls and attractions wasting
like roses in the desert air 1t is too bad,
What an ocean of bliss-of home happi
ness-of kisses-of affection-of love is
here running to waste. There are NOR
women than men in New England. ..
