TWICE A WIDOW IN ONE DAY.-An extra
ordinary incident in widowhood has just oc-
Cured at Thornley,, colliery village on the
Hartlepool and Sunderland Railway, in
England On the I'd of March, miner be-
longing to Thornley,, named Nicholas Cook,
aged about fifty years, was married TO a
widow at Hetton-le- Hole. After the cere-
mony was over, the couple adjourned to a
friends house and enjoyed themselves in a
suitable manner. They afterwards left for
their own house, and ON arriving at Thorn
ley the wedding festivities were kept up
with joyous spirit. In the midst of the
hilarity the bridegroom was suddenly seized
with a choking sensation in his throat, and
fell down a corpse.

In the days of the famous Ethan Allen of
Vermont, lawyers were scarce, and gentle-
men who were not of the profession acted
as counsel. Allen was often employed in
this way, and on one occasion the opposing
lawyer quoted Blackstone, whereupon old
Ethan threw stones IN this terrible fashion.

eternal fitness of things, l can upset his
black stones, his white stones, his gravestones
and his brimstones.

The Raleigh North Carolina) Sentinel con-
tains letter from correspondence Louisburg,
ing;
As sign of the times send you an account
of murder committed in this county on the
night of the lob Sunday of March. Mary
and Becky Ann Collins, freed women, mother
and daughter, the former about fifty years and
the latter thirty years Of age, were living in the
yard of widow lady, though not employed by
her. Becky had two small children and boy
four ycars old, named Jerry, the son of her de-
ceased sister, and grandson of Mary On the
night of the murder, boy eight years old, son
of Becky, and who is bound to Mr.. Joseph Muir
ray, stayed with his mother. lie states that in
the night his mother and grandmother shut Jerry
out of doors; they then tore to pieces an old
btdstead which belonged to Jerry's mother, and
carried ii out OF doors, with all OF Jerrys mothers
clothes and bed clothes, and made FIRE at the
corner of the chimney. They then caught Jerry,
and after cutting him with au axe, making Q
frghtful wound on his neck, pushed him into
the large FIRE. lie screamed and jumped ou
several times, and they as often pushed hin
back, until he was dead. They continued burn
ing him until all was consumed except two small
plates of tue skull, few remains Of bones ant

she had killed the devil-that Margaret derry
mother) had come back and stuck her claws il
Jerry and made him devil, and she and he
mother had killed him. She evidently was feign

foolish remarks. Mary made no such attempt
but confessed that she made the fire and tina
Becky burnt the child. The widow lady did nc
remain ut home that night, but she says thes

Not satlslled wien Protection.

Thore is a good deal of human nature
in the protectionists they like butter so
well that they must spread their bread on
both sides Thus the Chicago Tribune of
recent date says:
"The Honorable Oakes Ames, of Mas.
sachusetts, is a high tariff man. He
makes shovels for tho American and Au.
stralian markets. He finds the tariff on
steel pinching him, and he too, wants a
bounty to enable him to furnish cheap
shovels to the Australians. Mr., A. is
protected" in the American market by
duty of forty five per cent on his shov-
els. The proof that he does not need
such protection is found in the fact that
he exports shovcls to foreign countries in
competition with English manufacturers.
Nevertheless, his export trade is dcclin.
ing, aud is threatened with extinction by
reason Of the high tariff on steel. He
proposes, therefore, to get n law passed
to compel those who buy his shovels in
this country at As per cent. more than
they are worth, to pay 45 per cent. addi-
tional, so that he may furnish shovels to
the Australians at IS per cent. less than
they cost tho American farmer. The
professional name for this bounty is "draw-
back" The word bounty does pot sound
well. IF the reader will bear in mind
that drawback means sum of money
taken out OF the treasury, which has to be
made good by taxes from some other
source, it will aid him 10 forming correct
conclusions Us to how far drawbacks should
be allowed
TAis is simply contrivance to make
the American farmer and workingman
buy the shovels they need at about twice
the price they might buy them for with
out such iniquitous interference, and AT
nearly double what the shovcls are sold
for to foreigners. That is to say, it ID
made a, penal offence to be an American,
