SHOCKING Accidental sad affair
happened at Kingston, n. Y, last
week. Mr.. George ChOIwell started
a fire in his line kiln and partly fill,
ed it, after which he left for home
Soon after his son, lad of ten years,
supposing the fire had gone out, went
down into the kiln by means of
wlndlass and tub. The gas from the
burning coal and lime soon stupefed
him, 50 that he fell from the tub. A
little sister, about eight years Of age,
being present, gave the alarm to
their mother. who directed the little
girl to 90 down into the kiln and get
the brother into the tub, when she
would haul them both up. The little
girl did as she was told, but on arriy-
ing at the bottom she fell out, appar-
emily sufIocated. The agonized moth
er then got her aged father and moth
or to let her down by the windlass,
so that she could rescue her offspring
from death. She went down and put
her children in the tub, when they
were hauled to the top, apparently
lifeless. The tub was again lowered
to rescue the mother, who had al
ready begun to show signs of exhaus-
ton from the suffocating gas. She
had strength enough to get into it
but when they began to turn the wind
lass her heavy weight CPS pounds
caused the iron shaft to turn in the
wooden drum. The neighbors were
sent for, but before assistance could
arrive Mrs. Cholwell died in the kiln
Her husband went down and tied g
rope around her body, by which she
was hoisted out. The boy died OF
Saturday morning; the girl will prob
ably recover.

.REMARkS.-Over all the northern roads
there were transported to market this week III
cattle OF all kinds, beeves, working oxen and
cows. We do not fully understand the causes
of the great increase in the demand for western
cattle at this market the falling off in the New
England supply. For the first three months last
year only 6629 western were received, in a total
supply of l9,345-a trifie over one third being
western. For the same time this year l6, l63
western were received in a total of 24,007-over
two thirds being western up to the 1st of April
During April and the first three weeks of May
there have been 1926 cattle in all at market, of
which 1921 were New England States-oyer
siX-sevenths of all the cattle for the past seven
months have been western.

OUR NEW WEsT.-Probably by far the
best book that has been written of the great
west, is that just issued by the Hartford
Publishing Company, and written by Sam
uel Bowles, editor of the Springfield Re-
publican, who spent two summers in trav-
cling the wide and wild regions he describes
the whole country between the Missouri
River and the Pacifc-all the territories
lying between them and the states of Cali
fornia and Oregon. 1t describes the great
natural wonders of the west in language at
once natural, vivid and entertaining, the
Sierra Nevadas, Yosemite, Mt. Hood, Sho-
shone Falls, Columbia, &c, and gives a
lengthy instructive chapter o II
MOrmonism and the MOrmons, and enters
into the inner life of that great and growing
corruption speaks understandingly of the
great iron artery that now spans our con
tinent, the Pacific Railroad; of the Chi
nese and the Indians, and altogether is tn
book for every family that cares to know
all about the far west that is nearer anC
nearer every day. James Tate is agent fo
the towns of Glover, Barton and Derby.

COVENTRY, MAY 80.
FRIEND EARLE enclose beautiful
extract taken from the Newport Express,
which may possibly have escaped your no.
tice, and which for low scurrility and glar-
ing obscenity l never yet saw equalled IN
the columns of any paper, no, not even IN
the New York police reports. The Tx
press, as you are aware, has detained loud
and long of the "coarseness," the sour
rility," and the "indecency" of the Stand
ard, but | think it will be difficult to find
a match for this paragraph in your files,
either original or selected, and as coming
from the call the decency" organ it must
strike the attention of those who take that
paper for its peculiar fitness as a model
family newspaper" as being not the choi-
cest morsel of polite literature. | take both
the Standard and the Express, and though
have seen some things in the Standard in
years past that did not meet my approba-
ton, must confess that they were gems in
comparison with the item to which | al
Jude. Would it not be well to preach the
Express folks a sermon from their text?
The paragraph had escaped our notice
till our attention was called to it by a gen.
tleman in this village, and previous to the
reception of the above letter. We would
like to have our readers see the gem spoken
of, but they will have to borrow the Elk
press if they wish to do so, for it is too low
to allow of its republication in our columns.
1t can be found in the third paragraph Of
" st. Lawrence Papers No. 6" commencing
thus:
The next institution in point of mag
nitude is, or has been, the soldier worship
of the F. F. Q.'s. The fathers and moth
ers of Quebec many years ago erected an
idol, and covering it with scarlet and gold
lace, bid their daughters fall down and wor-
ship. This they did like obedient children,
till at last they neglected or forgot" &c.
And so on, nd nauseam For the rest of
it see Express Of May 25. Take the worst
thing that ever appeared in the Standard
and multiply it by four and you can then
form some idea Of what the remaining por-
ton is. VIII our dear brother Camp say
something more about Earle's slang" the
vulgar editor" the "cOarseness of the
Standard" &c, and then tell what sweetly
moral thingshe is capable of? 1t will look

NATURALLY DEPRAvED.-If anything
further were wanted to convince people of
the mate wickedness of Andrew Johnson,
of his natural desire to break down all bar
iers between himself and an entrance to
perdition, if any existed, it should be the
knowledge of the fact that the pardon of
great rascals seemed to be his aim and
study. On the day after his accession to
Office, April 10Th, 1865, he pardoned a
counterfeiter, and kept it up from time to
time till he liberated one hundred and for
ty-two persons convicted of counterfeiting
and ninety-one who had been convicted of
violations of the revenue laws. One of his
last acts was to pardon --, a no
ted counterfeiter who had been in prison
but few weeks, and who had cost the
government some $4,000 to catch, and
him he pardoned the day before his term
expired. What does it all mean? Wa.
there such "fellow feeling" between him
self and the counterfeiters of the nationa
currency, as to bring him to that pitch OF
fraternal love that he must needs rush t
their rescue without a why or a wherefore

ESGLIsH LnERATURE-IETERRsTIS MANU-
scRIPIs.-Some very interesting additions
have lately been made to the manuscript de-
partment of the British Museum. Among
the most noticeable are a number Of private
letters of the author Of the q" Jnnius " letters
addressed to Woodfall, the publisher Of the
Morning Adrerfiser, in one Of which Junius re-
fleets on the danger of discovery. and alters
the place for receiving letters at the Somerset
Coffee House. In the same letter he promises
that Woodfall shall in due time be made ac-
quainted with him, and he eneloses some
sheets of the first edition of the collected let
tiers corrected in MS. by himself; as well as
the draft Of a letter signed Junius, addressed
to David Garriek, No date is attached to this
letter to Woodfsll. bat it is supposed to hsve
been written about November, 177l. The
handwriting is excellent, and evidently dis
guised. A holographie letter Of Sir Philip
Francis to the Earl Of Buehan, placed side by
side with few sheets Of the above. in a show
case, enables those who believe him to have
been the author Of the Junius letters to CON-
pare the two handwritings, and, though it is
dificult to believe that the scrawling pen Of
Francis could ever have traced the cramped
writing of Junius. there certainly exists a Gu
rious similarity in the formation Of some Of the
more marked letters that occur in both. Pro-
duetions Of a still more modern date, but Of
great interest, are a collection Of manuscript
documents made by the late Francis Place, Of
Westminster, relating to the history of politi-
cal and trades unions, the manners, morals,
and general social condition of England, To-
gether with papers relating to the celebrated
Westminster election Of 1918. Two additional
leaves have been added to the eleven already
in the Museum, Of q very richly illuminated
genealogical work on vellum, designed to show
the descent and alliances Of the royal houses
of Spain and Portugal. from the earliest period
to the beginning Of the sixteenth century. It
is supposed to have been executed by Simon
Benichius and other Flemish artists for the In
fante Den Fernando, third son Of Emmanuel,
King Of Portugal. another work worthy Of
notice is the volume of English ballads and
romanees from which Bishop Percy selected
the poems published under the title Of f" Reli-
ques Of Ancient English Postry," written
about the middle Of the seventeenth century.
A curious letter from Sir Walter Scott to Mr..
Slsde, diselaiming the authorship Of the Wa
verIey Novels. and dated 1921. has also lately
been beqaeathed to the trustees Of the Museum
By the late Mr.. Felix slade.
