the newspapers. How the affair was settled
we have not heard.


The steam-mill owned by the Messrs
Willard narrowly escaped the flames on
Tuesday evening. The fire was discovered
about o'clock, after the help had all left,
by young man riding down the hill
northeast of the mill. IL took in the roof
of the engino-house, which is lower than
the main building, and would not have
been discovered from the village before the
lire would have spread beyond control.
"A somewhat careful inquiry about town
respecting crops leads TO the conclusion that
hay will average about two-thirds Of a crop
the small grain fully an average with other
years. Corn planted during the wet part Of
the season is excellent, and that planted af-
ter the drouth came on will be very good
If the frost holds off two weeks longer. The
potato crop is good. The experiment by a
few of tobacco raising has proved success,
with the exception of slight damage by
grasshoppers and hail.

Democrats imperatively demand the publi-
cation of all the accounts of the supervisor.
II the publication Is not made, 1t Is asserted
there will be break, and II 1t reveal the
existence Of the alleged frauds, there will
likewise be break. Tho Tammany lead
ers are reported as thoroughly alarmed at
last, and fearful that retrbution cannot be
much longer delayed.
Gov. Hoffman of New York, who lately
seemed the looming man" of the Democra-
cy, appears to have been laid upon the shelf,
since the Orange riot, as one entirely una
valuable for the Presidential nomination.
Even the World accepts this conclusion for
its lavorite, and is looking elsewhere for its
standard bearer. From the fact that 1t has
recently taken occasion to speak good
word for Chief Justice Chase, declaring
him "still young enough for long career
of public usefulness" tho suspicion Is not
unwarranted that its preference, along with
other new departure Democrats, lies in that
direction. 1t looks now very much as
though the Chief Justice had tho inside
track on the Democratic nominating course,
and that he must win if any new departure
man is allowed to do so.
Gerritt Smith deprecates any Republican
insensibility TO the merits of President
Grant, saying: "If he who confessedly did
more than any other man to save our coun-
try in the perils of war, and whose great in
fluence in peace has all gone to make that
pea &c more perfect and more blessed, can
not be made our next President, what Re-
publican can be? Maniiestly, either he or
the Democratic candidate shall be, and
shall represent and be a specimen of the
bad, very bad, Democratic party, what then
can save our country from ruin9'
Senator Thurman of Ohio, the ablest man
in the Senate of the United States on the
Democratic side comes out strongly against
the new departure. Per contra, large
gathering of democrats near Little Rock,
Ark, on Thursday of last week, passed
resolutions heartily endorsing the new
movement.

A report has recently been in circulation
to the effect that j. S. Adams, acting Com
missioner of immigration and Collector Of
Cu,tomsa at Jacksonville, Fla, had, through
the force of evil habits, become an inmate
of the Inebriato Asylum at Bnghampton,
N. Y. We are authorized to state that this
report is wholly without foundation, Mr..
Adams being at the present time in the dis
charge of the duties of the above offices and
member in good standing of the Sons of
Temperance. Whatever may have been
the origin Of this story, we trust that those
newspapers which have aided its circula-
ton will be equally prompt to note its de-
NAL, in justice to one who, as Secretary of
the Board of Education, and in other capac-
tiles has rendered honorable service to the
people of Vermont.

A NEW York TRAGEDY.-On Saturday,
Aug. 20, trunk was discovered at the
Hudson river railroad depot, marked for
Chicago, which, contained the body of fe
male, some IS or 10 years old. A coroner's
inquest revealed the fact that her death was
caused by abortion. Investigation by the
police have brought to light the facts in the
case, which are in brief that the young la
dy's name was Bowlesby of New Jersey,
and that herseducer, and through whose in
fluence she came TO death at the hands of
the abortionist, is w. f. Conklin of Patter-
son, n j. The man who has been arrested
for the murder is DIR. Rosenzweig, who is
said to have two or three houses where he
practices his nefarious deeds in different
parts of the city. The search of Rosen-
zweig's house on second avenue, disclosed
large quantity of letters and receipts for
services from patients, proving the doctor
to have carried on the abortion business
simultaneously in six different places in
n. Y. during the last three years. The
coroner's jury have returned n verdict that
Alice Bowlesby came TO her death in con-
sequence of an abortion produced by Jacob
Rosenzweig. The prisoner was removed to
the Tombs to await the action Of the grand
jury. 1t is said that Walter L. Conklin, OF
Patterson, n. j., who shot himself on FRI
day, Sept. LIST, was the seducer of Miss
Bowlesby. A letter found upon him, seems
TO confirm the suspicion.

Trio AL BERsAGLIo.-The demonstration
of this Italian society in honor of the
secured independence of Italy, which had
been postponed, finally took place on Sun
day. The society formed in full strength,
and after proceeding through Royal, Es-
planade and Charities streets, when, at the
residence of Mr.. +. Pace, the usual festiv l.
ties incident to such an occasion were in
dulged in to creditable extent. The pro-
cession was conducted by Joseph Cirmua-
relli. with brilliant staff of aids, the regu-
lar officers and the invited guests being in
carriages. j. del Orto was the orator of
the day. The REPUBLICAN was compG
mented by the usual courtesy as the society
passed, for which evidence of good will our
thanks are due.
