only A LITTLE BRooK."-;A simple but very
touching incident has been related to u.s. says the
Maine Press in connection with the last moments of
beautiful little girl in Bath, who lately died at the
age of nine years and eleven months. very little
while before she died. as the soFrowng friends stood
around her. watching the last movings of the gentle
breath the last faint uttering of the little pulse
they became aware from her broken words, that she
shrank with natural dread from the unknown way
that was opened before her.. She had come to the
borders of the mysterious river which separates
from the dim hraeafter and her timd feet seemed to
hesitate and fear to stem the food But after time
her fear subsidized she grew calm and ceased to talk
about the long, dark way, till at the very last she
frightened suddenly, smile OF confidence and cour-
age lighted UP her sweet face: "O it is only little
brook! she CRIED and passed over to the heavenly
shore.

THE GALLRRIEs OF THE UNITED STATES

THE GALLERIES OF THE UNITED STATES
sENATE,-The large attendance of col
ored people in the galleries of the United
States Senate, by which the wives and
families of Members of Congress are
shut out from them, creates much feel
ing in Washington. Last week, thirty
Senators signed request in writing to
the Sergeant-at,Arms, asking him to
reserve a portion Of the gallery for the
use of congressman aad their families
and friends, This was regarded by two
or three of the more radical Senators as
an indirect way Of displaying caste
feeling, aud they objected, So the Ser
geant-at.Arms declined the request, un-
less authorized by the Senate, and the
matter is to be discussed on the follow
ing resolution
Resolved, That the Sergeant alarms
of the Senate be directed to assign re-
served seats in the gallery for Senators
and representatives, and their wives
and families.

CLAIM Acknowledgements will doubt
less pass a bill to secure discharged SOL
diers from robbery by unpriucipled
claim agents, who have flooded the
country with circulars promising to OBJ
tain for them benefits which the laws do
not allow. A movement was made by
the House on Thursday in the direction
of protection from abuses. Representa-
tive Farnsworth briefly referred to some
of the frauds, stigmatizing many of the
agents as rascals and thieves; and
Speaker Colfax and Messrs. Grinnell and
Morrill, severally mentioned the fact that
their names had been used as references
without their consent.
In speaking Of this matter, the Tri
bune says:
No doubt there is plenty of rascality,
but we beg members of Congress to OBJ
serve that what stimulated these scamps
is the expectation of the passage of a
law "equalizing bounties." Such law
would put a great deal of money into
the pockets of these agents, and very lit
tie into the pockets of the soldiers.
Why pass it?

ANOTHER SEVERE ACCDENT.-Mr. Eli
Faulkner, young man Of Londonderry,
and brakeman on the Rutland & Bur
lington Railroad, was severely Injured
on the I'd inst, while doing duty on a
freight train coming to this place, by
his head coming in contact with a
bridge. A frightful cash was cut across
his forehead, just above the eyes, severely
injuring his head. He also received
some other injuries of less serious ma
ture. He rode some six miles on the
train before the accident was discovered.
When struck by the bridge, he fell and
remained on top OF a car, and after a
while recovered consciousness sufficient
to enable him to get down into the in
side of the car, even in his situation.
On his arrival here he was taken to
the Bellows Falls House, where he is
attended by DR.. Whitman. His head is
terribly swollen, completely closing his
eyes, but there seems to be no doubt of
his recovery. He had only been on the
road about two weeks, aud it is a most
sorry experimentation Falls Times.

VERMONT CONFERENCE SgMrNARr.-It
it is probable that the Conference which
will meet the 10Th OF this month. at
Montpelier, will decide to remove the
school from Newbury to Mortified. on
certain condition. 1t is not desired to
remove it unless the institution can be
founded upon more permanent basis
and with better prospect for the fu-
ture than it now has. To accomplish
this object, it will be necessary to obtain
funds to the amount of from sixty to
eighty thousand dollars, at least. The
Inhabitants atNorthfield have subscribed
$4,000, and this appears to be about the
extent of the amount they are willing
to contribute. The amount of $4,000,
or more, must then be obtained among
tue friends of this enterprise through
the State. 1t is not expected that a p0r-
ton of the Conference in the western
part of the State will concur in the
movement to build a central institution,
and part of the eastern portion of the
State cannot be expected to contribute

THE BROOKS -DoDGR CAsB.-The Dodge
Brooks case was further argued on
Thursday in the House, but no vote
reached. Mr.. Shellabarger opened
the case with a powerful argument
In favor of Mr.. Dodge on the law
points Of the case. He made de-
cided impression upon the minds of those
members who were still in doubt. Gen.
Paine followed upon the question of the
validity of the registry In the Fifteenth
District Of the Eighteenth Ward. He
held that the registry was invalid, but
that did not necessarily invalidate the
return, and if the return be not set
aside then Mr.. Brooks retain his seat.
Mr., Spalding followed in advocacy of
his proposition to refer the election back
to the people. Mr.. Brooks then COM
menced the argument in his own behalf.
He at once devoted himself, not to argu-
ing the case, but TO Mr.. Dodges wealth
and social position, parade of his in
come, and to boast of his own populari-
ty among the hard listed mechanics and
the abodes Of poverty, and squalor and
filth of Mackerelville. He damaged his
own case most eflectually, and whatever
chances existed in his favor last night
seemed to be expelled by his speech Of
to-day. The case will undoubtedly come
to vote tomorrow.

DEsERTRRs DIsFRASCHIsED.-The Leg
islature of Pennsylvania has passed an
act DISTINGUISHING all who deserted from
the military or naval service of the
United States during the late civil war.
Inspectors of Elections who receive
such votes are to be punished as for a
misdemeanor. This is in accordance
with an act of Congress. Many, how
ever, object to this and all similar laws,
on the ground that they can not be en-
forced. Those, they say, who jumped
bounties and lodged Provost Marshals,
during the war, will now dodge the law
and contrive way to vote.

SHOCKING ACCIDENTAL most shock
ing accident occurred at the paper mill
Of Messrs. Hunter & Co., at "Sodom, -
so-called, some mile and half from No.
Bennington, last week, Friday forenoon.
One of the workmen, named Myron Viii
bur, went into the engine-room, and
commenced taking off his coat. Draw
ing his arm from one of the sleeves, the
sleeve was slung around by the motion
OF his body, and caught around a shaft
which was revolving with great veloc
lty. The unfortunate man was swung
around in the most frightful manner ten
or fifteen times before the machinery
could be stopped. Both his legs were
broken, one of them in two places, and
one arm almost literally torn from its
socket. Medical assistance was soon
procured, but proved of no avail, for
the lock- jaw ere long set in, and he died
the next day. We understand he leaves
wife to mourn his sudden and un-
timely death.-Bemtngton Banner.

President Johnson has authorized the
unqualified contradiction Of para
graph which first appeared in a Boston
paper stating that at one time he con-

bill, or retaining it until it should be-

during the nine days that bill was in
his possession did he contemplate that
by any act Of his, either of omission or
Of commission, the bill should become

mother and aunt. After diligent search
he was found in the well, which was
some thirty feet deep. AS there was no
neighbors within half a mile, and the
men all gone to town meeting. it de-
VOWED upon the two ladies to rescue
the child from its perilous situation. A
rope was let down which ne seized. and
they succeeded in drawing him nearly
out OF the well; but when almost at
the top, his hold gave way and he again
fell to the bottom. He rose to the ton
of the water, when his mother, at the

Williams was assistant adjutant gen

of his untimely death. He was recently

the pleasure OF examining last week,
one of the improved American Hot Air
Cooking Stoves, now on sale at Brown

any house keeper to 90 and do the same.
They are certainly a model of perfection
in the way of cooking stove. 1t can
be used for both wood and coal, and
has a shaking and dumping CRATE,
movable ash-Oox, and all the conveu-
fences which could be imagined or de-
sired by the neat housewife. These
stoves are selling rapidly, as they de.
serve and we think they are bound to
Supercede most of the other first class
stoves. They are manufactured by
Messrs. Shear, Packard & Co., of Alba
ny, the very name of which firm is suf-
tiCient guarantee of the worth of the
manufactures. Call and see the stove,
and nothing can prevent your buying
one, for they save time, wood and tenn
