CooL DEscRIPTIoN.-Turn OYER. some
days since, to answer professional inquiry,
the leaves Of the reported trial of Webster
for the murder of Parkman, in Boston, in
1850--one Of the most remarkable cases on
record-we could not help being impressed
with the GOODNESS. and professional sang .froid
of DR.. Woodbridge Strong, one of the wit
hesses on the trial, as given in the report OF
his evidence. He said:

there was good deal Of fat about him

next day l found that had not finished by

best thing to do it with. 1t is necessary to
keep the fire well stirred up during the pro-
cess, or it would go out"
The only parallel which our memory sup
plies of such naiyete in description OF what,
to most persons, is very solemn proceeding
the disposal of the human body after death
is the account given severally by one For

the foot of Lundy's Lane. His house was
standing at the time Of the battle which took
place there in the war of 1872, and when we
saw it, bore many marks of the conflict, of
which Forsyth was himself an anxious eye
witness. According to his account it was de-
termined. day or two after the action, to
burn the dead of both parties instead of bury
ing them. He assisted in the work, which he
thus described to US after the manner of Dr.

HUNDRED YEARS IN PRIsoN.-A certain
hOusebreaker was condemned in the latter
part of the last century, in France and under
peculiar circumstances, to a hundred years
in the galley, and, strange to relate, this
man recently made his appearance in his
own native province at the advanced age of
l20 years he being about 20 years of age
when the sentence which condemned him to
such dreadful punishment was passed. 1t
Is difficult to conceive what the feeling must
have been with which he returned, as soon
"a emancipated from the shackles which
had enthrallen him for a century, to breathe
once more the cherished air of the scenes of
his infancy. Bourg, in the department of
Ain, was his native home, but time had so
changed the aspect of the whole place that
he recognized it only by the church of Bron,
which was the only thing which had under
gone no alteration. He had triumphed over
laws, bondage. man, time. everything. No
relation had he left, not Il single being could
be hail in acquaintance, vet he was not with
out experiencing the homage and the respect

had forgotten everything connected with his
early youth. even all recollectinns of crime
for which he had suffered was lost, if at all
remembered. it was Il drearv vision confoun-
ded with a thousand other dreary visions of
days long gone bv His family connections

UNLOCKED FOR ADA number of beavers
are a. work for the Union Pacific Railroad
Company. taking their turn after the work
men have quit for the day. A man who has
the contract for getting ties down the Laramie
river, from the mountains to the track at
Wyoming, owing to the stream so low, found
it necessary to build dams at different points,
intending soon to hoist all gates, thereby
creating flood that would enable the ties to
be got down without delay. Parties were
set to work erecting the dams several days
ago. and when the men left their work at
night, Leavers commenced where they left
OF, and continued working on the same
throughout the night, doing vast amount of
work and in a satisfactory manner. Not on
ly this, but in two or three instances where
brakes have occurred they have repaired them
in as workmanlike a manner as could be de-
sired. The amont of labor already perform
ed by them is worth hundreds of dollars to
the contractors.

PRESIDENT GRANTS PoLIcY.-The New
York Herald saws:
Grants financial policy. we doubt not, will
be marked by very important and very ex-
tensive reforms in the collections and dis
burseme is of the public revenues. resulting
in great savings to the Treasury and in the
rapid appreciation of greenbacks to the gold
STANDARD. In his reconstruction policy we
predict that he will be guided by the land
marks of the Constitution and not by the
visionary and revolutionary ideas and
schemes of the. Radical faction, or of any
fanatics North or South. We expect that
his foreign policy will put the United States
positively and authoritiVely foremost in the
front rank Of the Great Powers ef the earth,
and that it will include very decisive settle
meat of the mexican question. As in the
war the cool head, the solid good sense. and
remarkably practical mind of General Grant
placed him alongside the great military gen.
Soses of modern or ancient times, so in his
civil administration of the affairs of the Union
we expect the same solid qualities will prove
him equal to the highest order of statesman
ship. In word. we expect in General
Grant frst-rate President, and from him,
dome.tic and foreign, frst-rate policy.
