AooIDgs1s,-The Caledonian records
an faecident to John Grey and o. s.
Burke, few days since, who were rid
ing toward st. Johnsbury from Hard
wick, and when near Mr.. Joel Dole's in
Danville, some part of the harness gave
way, letting down the thills and causing
the horse to run, throwing out both the
men. Mr.. Grey had one leg broken in
two places but Mr.. Burke sustained no
serious injury. The wagon was broken,
but the horse was uninjured.
Eddie, an eight years old son of
David Amell OF st. Johnsbury, had both
feet cut of by the cars as they came
into the station at that place on Wednes-
day afternoon. We understand 1t has
been common for many of the village
boys to catch onto the cars as they come
in and 60 out from the Istation, place
pennies upon the rail in front of an ap.
preaching engine, and In several ways
acting in very careless and reprehensi-
BILE manner. On Wednesday night Eddie
had gone down to the freight house to
"catch on" and ride up to the platform,
when losing his foothold, he swung
under the car, and the wheels completely
severed one foot and part of the other.
He was immediately cared for by the
men about the station, but the sight OF
his bleeding feet left upon the track, and
his mangled stumps, drew tears from
eyes not accustomed to weep. Both
feet were re-amputated by the surgeons,
but it is yet uncertain whether he lives
or dies.

MARYLAND APPRENTICESHIP. - Chief
Justice Chase on Wednesday delivered
the opinion that the Apr enticeship o
negroes in Maryland, by the Orphans
Court, was such a species of Slavery as
to come within the meaning of the
Thirteenth Article of the Constitution,
and that the Civil Rights bill was con-
stitutional. This decision will release
multitude of such apprentices in that
State.

F1RE.-About two O'Clock yesterday
morning, the barn OF Joseph Malhiot, To-
Gated on Green street, with its contents,
consisting OF q quantity OF hay. grain
and other crops, were entirely destroyed
by fire. The fire companies were out,
but the distance OF the fire from their
rendezvous and scarcity of water Ien-
dered their services unavailable. The
loss is about $3.50 no insurance. 1t was
undoubtedly the work OF an incendiary.

The Treasury Department has re.
ceived information OF new frauds on the
revenue In the whisky line, aud, II the
reports OF the officers can be relied on,
some startling developments will soon
be made. A portion OF these frauds are
concocted in the transportation OF dis
titled spirits from bonded warehouses in
the West to those in the East.
The secret service force Of the
Treasury report that they have discov-
rred that the counterfeit Seven Thirty
notes were printed In Philadelphia, and
simultaneously sold in Cincinnati. New
York and Philadelphia. About ga 900

good reason to believe that the Depart

principal ones engaged in the work.
The story that majority OF the
members of the Judiciary Committee
are now in favor Of impeachment is tele.
graphed, 1t seems, on the authority of
Mr.. Lawrence OF Ohio, a member Of the
Committee, who claims that the chair
man, Mr.. Wilson OF Iowa, has been con-
verted to the movement, thus making q
bare majority of the committee. But
the latter have taken no vote since the
first week in June, when they stood four
for impeachment, three for censure and
the two Democrats for dismissing the
matter.
The Star says that recent arrivals
from Virginia represent political affairs
in that State IS badly mixed, and it is
now thought that the election of Tues
day will result In msjority against the
Convention. The Union Party Conven.
tions thus far have been controlled by
the extreme conhscstion men, who re-
fused to compromise with the milder
Republicans, but nominated men of thu cir
own stripe as delegates. The result is
that many Republicans will vote against
8 Convention, prefering that the State
should remain as 1t now is.

His genial qualities and good humor
have been q great pleasure to You and
to me. He had . pleasant Wit, educated
by classical studies. I have seen most
OF this by being more with him In the
Chamber; for he was there nearly every
day In the last two years. But for his
dittldence and disposition for retirement
he would have been more widely known.
| often said to him that II fell to my lot
to Introduce him from day to day to his
own constituents, whom he ought to
know the better OF the two; but his an.
swer was, that he was content TO serve
his constituents without observation,
and that his private pleasure lay in the
limited circle of his friends. That was
not unworthy for he was faithful to his
constituents, and true to his friends.
Gentlemen, in difference to your &C.
quiescence in my own sentiments upon
the present occasion, which i cannot
doubt, you will permit me to propose
the following orders for your adoption t:
Ordered, by the Governor and Council,
that the Secretary be instructed to place
upon the Council records this expression
of their cordial testimony of the genuine
worth and meritorious services of the
Hon. Charles Francis Dana, late Coun.
cillor from the 4th District of their
painful regret for his sudden and I'M
timely desease; OF their personal attach
ment to him while living, and of their
pleasant remembrance Of him after death,
and OF their deep sympathy with his
particular relatives and friends in their
affiiction.
Ordered, That a copy Of these Orders
OF the Governor and Council shall be by
the Secretary communicated to the
family of the deceased.

much as to whether we shall have
peace and quiet depends upon
their actions; that if the country
becomes unsafe and oppressive fol
one class of citizens, it will be SC
for all, and that we appeal to them
to use their influence and priv
leges to secure to all honest and
upright men equal rights and priv
ileges.
After which, the Convention

til the Christian people of the
South shall open that field to
missionary labor, and send among
them earnest, pious and fearless
soldiers of the cross, with the duty

that God fearing men of any color
might obtain a hearing and achieve
