half way down the bank Of the river
with hickory stick His wife, attract
ed by the noise, ran to his assistance,
and met the same fate as her husband
| then dragged both bodies to the riv-
er, and started up the bank towards
the house, and was met by the stranger,
who asked me II Hail was at home, and
If be eould get some water; | drew for
him the water, and while he was drink
ing, / struck him on the head with the
same stick. | then went to the house,
and the little girl asked me where lrer
sister and Mr. Hall were | told her
they were at the ferry, aud while she
was going in that direction, at the cor
ner of the stable, struck her with the
same stick, and she fell dead | then
threw the stick under the house, re-

GoLD DISCOVERIES IN NEW HAMPsHIRE AND
VERMoST.--In the eastern extremity Of
the Appalachian chain another gold
district has been discovered which
promises to be of much importance =
The taleose slate rocks on New Hamp-
shire side of that chain of mountains
some time since yielded from their
quartz ores 5000 up to $50 per ton Of
the precious metal. On the Vermont
side, at Bridgewater locality has long
been known as auriferous, and the
Commissioner Of the General Land OF
fee has within a few days received
specimens of quartz vein from Man
chester of very rich quality From
the analogous geological structure of
the country, and the specimens in
hand, rich yield may be expected
Gulch mining has from time to time
been resorted to, and has afforded
enough to stimulate research for
the vein from which the metal was con-
yeyed to the stream and the bottom
lands. The recent discovery is regard
ed as another evidence Of the almost
universal presence o. this meta in the
talcose states.

From the Tenth annual Registra
ton Report, complied by the Secretary
Of the State. we CLEAN the following sta
tistics; In 1866 there we're $50 births,
a.O9l marriages, and ASA deaths, in
Vermont The number Of births for
the last ten years were 60055; maria
Res 22,ls5, and deaths 1921 The

Of the buildings thereon tls,200. The

IN eKoossof the receipts for the current
year were si,63s. The showing for
this institution for the reformation Of
juvenile offenders, says Mr. CLARK Of the
Rutland Herald, has exceeded the Just
expectation Of ITS friends for il could
not be supposed that AN institution of
this character could be put into snc-
cessful operation without large outlay
OF money; nor that II could for some
years bring any revenue to the state,
bat when il shall have all the improve
ments and additions necessary for its
compleiIworking, il may be Justly ex-
peeied TO pay its own expenses; but ey-
en- II does not, II is an institution which
the public safety aud the welfare Of
certain class Of oyr juvenile population
demand, and is accordance with the
wise provision which has long since
been made by our sister states. We
know that the Reform School il looked
upon with jealousy, and as making an
unnecessary outlay TO the state, but its
results thus far have been such as to
