Union Caucus.

|; may not be of much consequence to
make any record Of the Union Caucus on
Saturday, since that and the freemen's
meeting on Tuesday, in practical re-
suits, we're one and the same. The eau
Gus was entirely harmonious and enthus-
iasiic, and short and spicy speeches were
made. 1t was called to order by Rodney
Wiley, chairman of the town committee,
and John A. Farnsworth was chosen
Chairman, and j. B. Divoll Secretary. it
was then agreed to approach nomina-
ton for representative with the utmost
caution, with view of getting at the pre-
ference Of every man present. An infor
NAL vote was first taken and stood: whole
number, 40 W. II. johnson, "A, scatter
ing, 5. A formal ballot was then taken
and resulted: whole number, 40 John
son AZ, scattering 2. Another vote was
then taken by rising and the nomination
of johnson was then made UNANIMOUS,
and the work was done, and well done,
too. An attempt was made TO nominate
Union ticket for justices with the demo-
Gratis, bat it failed, end straight ticket
was nominated.
Speeches were made by DR.. Blake, C.
B. Eddy, j. D. Bridgmau, Vim. Stone,
Scion Perry, H. c. Wiley, Capt. Atcher-
son, Harley Burr, j. i. Divoll, and
others. Some Of the speakers were caus-
tic upon oae or two persons in this village
who have heretofore acted with the Union
party, and whom they charged with hav-
ing deserted their colors and gone over
to the enemy, and their remarks set The
house in an uproar OF applause. Capt
Atcherson brought down the house by
saying that although he was pretty severe
ly handled in this town last year he
should tot 60 to any Hartford Consen-
tion or Philadelphia Convention :"
We shall attempt no report of the re-
marks made, bur the speech Of DIR. Blake
followed by on appropriate story by BIr.
Stone, told in his characteristic way, will
long be remembered by those present.

place at Essex junction last Friday at
ternoon. A poor, but very deserving wo-
man, whase name we have been unable TO
learn, ignorant of the nature of kerosene
oil was boiling some of it 10 use for paint
ing purposes. The oil ignited; the fire
communicated to the dress of the woman
and from her to the house. She flew out
OF the house and was caught by some
neighbors and the fire of her clothes ex-
tinguished. The building was destroyed
and the woman was so badly burned that
she died on Saturday morning. The wo-
mans father, man SO years of age, was
taken out Of chamber window of the
house while it was burning, ard was so
terrified with the affair that he attempted
suicide on Friday night but was prevcni-
ed from doing himself any serious damage
Some $500 in money were destroyed by
the fire, and, in addition 20 the afflction
caused by the loss of life, the remaining
members of the family are left entirely
destitute of shelter or mems.
