NORTH GRANVILLE, June ~.
The poem delivered by Jere. M. Chrys-
Ter, A. B., of Auburn, N. Y, to the grad
uating class last evening was beautifully
written, and in thought poetical.
The burden of the thought seemed to be
that to make life worth the living, labor,
self-sacrifcing labor, and an unselfsh de-
votion to the good of others should be its
object. The poet introduced several char
acters whose lives were most beautifully
pictured in language that was well chosen.
Mr.. Chrysler's comparisons from nature
plainly showed that the muse had been
courted by him to no vain purpose
While the language and thought of the
speaker were highly poetical, many of his
sentences were not mutilated by those
violent diversions and transpositions SO
apparent in the compositions of many OF
our poets of this and other days. In short,
the poem of Mr.. Chrysler constituted a
feast of rich and well-chosen words, and
while the ear was thus satisfied, the high
er life was strengthened and purified by
the abundance of spirituality that pr >.
vailed throughout the entire PRODUCT on
In this, Mr.. Chrysler'r poem diffe red
widely from those previously deliv cred
upon such occasions, his predecessors hav-
ing dealt more with the material the n the

WONDER STORIES TOLD FOR Chill
DREN.-By Hans Christian Andersen.
Authors Edition. New York: Hurd
& Houghton.
All of Andersen's short stories are to be
gathered into two volumes, one to contain
those in which the element of wonder is
more especially prominent, the other In
which the basis is more matter of fact.
The first is before us, and is running over
with the odd fancies and fairy creations Of
this prince of Juvenile story tellers. Any
one who finds it difficult to get material
to answer the ever present child demands
for "story," should take course of les
sons with Andersen. He will thereafter
find in bug, bottle, pebble, weather-vane
wind, poker, snuff-box, rose-bush, river
or anything else, inexhaustible materia
for romance. The book is one of the pref
test and most attractive ones for children
that has been published in many day
1t is very handsomely printed and bound
is filled with pretty woodcuts, and tn
stories are numerous enough to last TO
many days, and to furnish continue
source of enjoyment to young readers
for it is one of those which will not b
laid aside with once reading, but will b
always kept in sight, and often recurrd
to. It cannot fail to have a wide saA.

NEW YORK, Jul

NEW L OhhS y uuS So
An embankment near the corner of
Carroll street and Third avenue fell upon
three little children last evening while
they were at play. Their bodies were ex-
humed this morning.
In the suit of the New York stock ex-
change against the Erie railroad company
and others, to prevent some $6,000,000 OF
Err te stock from being transferred on the
books of the company to Heath & Raphel,
it being claimed that there was conspir-
acy to use this stock by parties having no
interest in it to control the affairs of the
company, preliminary injunction to this
effect WIS granted by Judge Cardozo.
Penping this injunction the defendants
offered the stock to the Erie r. r. Co.
to be certified for registration. The
plaintiff thereupon moved to fine the de-
PENDANTS for contempt in trying to evade
the previous injunction, and also asked
that the injunction he extended to forbid
the registration of the stock. Judge Bar
nard held that the injunction on the
transfer was sufficient. for the purposes of
the action, and that registration was en-
tirely different from transfer, and there
fore denied both motions.
A large number of suits Were brought
against Messrs. Fisk 81 Gould with others
on transactions in gold on and just before
Black Friday, which they repudiated in
consequence of the suspension of the gold
exchange bank. Eleven of these suits are
now pending in the Superior and five in
the Court of Common Pleas. The amount
damned in the one court being between
! 100000 and 100000, and in the other
sourt $4S5,000 All these suits Fisk
asks and other defendants make no oppo-
siion to be transferred to the Supreme
Curt for trial. Decision reserved.
! Judge Barnard to-day refused a motion
III injunction to prevent registration of
six millions Erie stock, in name of Heath,
Raphel & Co., of London, and heard ar
gunents, but reserved decision on
Fist s. Gould's motion to transfer the nu-
menus suits against them growing out of
gtlt transactions last September, and in
voMng nearly one million and half dol
lar, from Superior and Common Pleas
Corrt to the Supreme Court.
Thomas Murphy to-day recovered $61,-
900 fr'm Ezekiel S. lockwood, the value
with interest thereon, of lot of army
blankets furnished by Murphy during the
war with which to fill government con-
tract, hut which army inspectors rejected.
Princess Edith to-day entered COM
plant against Woodruff & Clafin for
larceny of rings and money to the amount
of six thousand dollars. Judge Bowling
declined to issue warrant for the arrest
OF the women brokers, but notified them
through an officer to appear tomorrow
for examination.

train from Troy, over the Rensselaer, and
Saratoga Railroad, due here at ten minutes
past nine on Tuesday evening was delayed
some over two hours in consequence of an
accident to the engine Plattsburgh, by
which she was thrown off the track into
ditch alongside of the road. The
Plattsburgh was attached to a construc
ton train, and while passing down to
Mechanicsville encountered steer upor
the track. The collision killed the steer
outright, and threw the engine and tender
some distance off the track. Fortunately
no one was injured. The hands attached
to the construction train went to work
tore up the track for several rods, ani
laid it down again out of the way of the
disabled engine SO as to enable the trains
to pass. The idea was happy one, and
was very handsomely and quickly carried
out.

In Cffering these Syringes to I public. the
propretors feel assured that they ust rapidly
take the place of all other kinds, asl who have
tried them agree in saying that no Ger Syringe
should be used.
They are so simple in their constitution and
operation that person reduced by dia5e to the
weakest condition, or even a child ca use them
without assistance, being entirely selating by
the weight of the liquid used, the Fouain be-
ing suspended three or four feet abovtte point
of application. The force thus obtaine found
abundantly sufficient for every purpe, and in
fact has been pronounced by reliable 4thority
the only safe ne hid to which the systmshould
be subjected.
One will last ordinary life time, siuiring
repairs, there are no valves nor rything
that c an passibly get out OF orde:, consequently
thes are always ready for use; there hing no.
thug about them to corrode or tirnishLs slffi-
cient to recommend them above al otlg,s. not
only because of the slight care required keep
ing them in a condition for use, BIT becalse it is
wen hlOHh IlltL Jle common IlCdlS cannot DC
used without injury to the system.
The Fountain Syringe cannot pssibIy inject
air-whi b is the cause of so much altering from
the use of all other kinds, and on tbs account no
other Syringe should be used.
The material of which they are nae is Rubber,
soft and plable, prepared in platte state ex-
pressly for the Syringe, and is not liable to at
mospheric influence in any climate The differ
ent tubes are of the very best leadl glass, firm
and strong, and is judged to be thpurest sub
stance that can come in contact witthe system.

THE VERMONT AND MASSACHUSETTS
RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-One of the ladies
injured by the accident on the Vermont
and Massachusetts is Gov. Bullock's niece
and another is his sister-in-law. Mrs
Turner of Royalton is not dead as report
ed. The trains are running regularly
again and will pass over the repaired
bridge to-day. The railroad authorities
say that the bridge was of ample strength
and was broken down by the turning OF
the engine upon one cross timber, against
which it was impossible to provide. j. v
Moore, the roadmaster, has always been a
first-class man on the road, but in this
case made one of those terrible mistakes,
to which the most careful are liable. A
ooroner's jury was summoned at Fitch
burgh on Friday, and sat on the remains
of johnson and Council.

Report OH the Freedom of the
Press.

WASHlNGTON, June *.
The select committee of investigation
on the resolution requiring Mr.. Scott
Smith of the New York E0en5ng Post, to
show cause why he should not be ex-
PEELED from the reporters gallery for GER
tain publications in that paper, to-day,
made report in which they exonerate
representatives Fitch and Mccormick
from any completely in the schemes
charged, but says that free press is the
life of free government. Representatives of
the people are but their servants and
agents, and it is of the highest import
ance that the people have means of infor-
nation as TO the conduct of their repre-
sentatives upon all matters of public con-
Germ. That the public press is the only
means of making such information, gene
rally known to the people, and it should
therefore be allowed most unlimited free
dom consistent with individual rights and
individual regulations; all conduct of
public men upon public matters are fair
subjects of discussion al d comment in the
public press, subject only to the condition
that they are made honestly and upon
reasonable grounds of belief upon their
truth. The committee are satisfied that
Mr.. Smith had no wanton or malicious
purpose to defame or malign either Fitch
or Mccormick, and they therefore recon-
mend the resolution referred to to be laid
on the table.
