Ex Gov. Holley of Lakevillc with one of his employers, passed our place inspecting the railroad track, ties, &c., on the Conn. Western, preparatory to the hauling of some coal that was standing on the truck near the state line, for the Washinee Go. of Salisbury. He reported here that we could see the engine that afternoon pass over the road with the first cargo of freight, but to our disappointment no engine came. It must have been an oversight on the part of somebody. men came to our village last week asking aims, saying they were two of the unfortunate ones on the steamer Westfeld, exposing their scalds, burns, etc, but whether they were burned by the explosion, or from some teakettle, is more than I can describe. ......The fenc- ing of the Conn. Western R. R. under the management of MT. Barton is fast nearing completion. The other evening Mir. B. passed our place rather late on his car, he being conductor, engineer &c., thinking he would ride to Millerton to his boarding place, as it was all down grade. He got his brakes all in order, and as he passed MT. Cooks cut, it being dark, he did not perceive an obstruction in the shape of & fence across the track, which threw Ar. B. car and all to the ground. He returned to the house of Daniel Cook, and with assis- tsnce got his car on the track, after which he went on his way rejoicing as far as the
 state line, when he met with greater ob-
 struction. He left his car, thinking 1t bet
 ter to try it on foot. A. F.

 Farmers have nearly all finished their having and harvesting. ......The tax payers held meeting, at their school house in our village last Saturday, and voted to re- pair their school house, and put it in first class condition. I am glad that the district has taken hold of this matter in earnest, IS the house has already gone too long without repairs, but the school house ques- ion has nothing to do with our delicate blacksmith and wagon maker, who are located near the Methodist church. These two feeble chaps are said to have dwindled down in flesh till they can only turn the scale at 24O pounds each. suggest that their diet be increased, or changed to some thing more strengthening rice and milk perhaps might improve their condition, however, notwithstanding their enfeebled condition, they manage to shoe horse, or tinker up a wagon, as quick as anybody can do it, and think as we'll.

A NEW CAR SEAT.-We find on our table pictorial representation of railroad car seat that looks as if it might be just the thing to put into our new Conn. Western cars which we expect to soon see running upon our new road. It is reclining sofa like seat, adjustable to any agreeable po- sition, with cosy head-rest at each cor her. There is movable foot-rest covered with fieecy rug, that swings forward, car rying with it a diaphragm, that separates the seat from the one back of it, thus cut ting off draughts of air, or of the lightfn- gered gentry so apt to disturb our bags and and baggage. When not in use for sleep ing, the back may be brought to the usual position, the head-rest folded and drawn into it Gas it is made hollow for that pur- pose) the foot-rest with it's diaphragm" secured to vertical position; and these changes may be effected instantly by a simple device, in care of the conductor, or
 left to the pleasure of the passengers, for whose greater comfort the new seat was contrived. It is described as Peases patent adjustable, head, back and footrestlng rail road car seat. The name of Pease stamped on it, ought CD to be guarantee that there is no humbug about it. Parties interested in car seats can learn more of this useful invention by addressing J. Ives Pease, Stockbridge, Mass.

OUR COREAN WAR.

In the early part of October 1866, tra- ding junk arrived at the Chinese port of Che-foo, having crossed the Yellow sea from the Corean coast, ard brought reports of the burning by the Coreans, of ship bearing American papers, and the massacre of the crew. This report proved correct, as it was ascertained that the schooner Gen. Sherman, which entered the lower waters of the Ping-Y ang river, and was on her way to the large trading port, Ping Yang city, to trade with the inhabitants, was burned and the crew murdered. On the 9th of April 1870, Admiral Rogers, sailed from New York harbor in the Color ado, with instructions from our govern ment, to assume command of the Asiatic Squadron, and proceed to Corea and open negotiations for treaty to protect our seamen. He was also instructed to take with him from Pekin, China, our minister Low, to aid in the negotiations. On their arrival, the Corean authorities refused to treat with them, and declared that any sur- vey of the river Ping Yang, or any re- connoitering with boats was open hostility, and when interrogated in regard to the Gen. Sherman gave such various and con- flicting accounts, that it was plainly evi- dent that their intention was to deceive. Failing in every reasonable attempt, to negotiate, or to gain permission to traverse their waters to ascertain concerning the Gen. Sherman, Admiral Rogers determined at all hazards to ascend the Ping Yang. He was fired on from the boats along the river, but silenced them and proceeded on his way. Ascertaining nothing from the Gen. Sherman, he returned. On account of the Coreans treacherously firing on Ad- miral Rogers, he determined to give them second battle, which he accordingly did on the 9th of June, and captured several of their forts, killed great number of the Coreans, including their Commander in chief, and took many prisoners. The Cor cans however have no idea of yielding to our arms, and what will be the result of this war already commenced, of course time will determine. The expedition thus far bas accomplished no change in the relations existing between the two coun- tries. The American fleet have returned to China, and will await instructions from Washington, before proceeding to further hostilities.

Fnlls Village.
 William H. Morris was found last Wednesday morning on the rock below the east end of the bridge across the Hous- atomic, near c. K. Peck's hotel in this village, with his skull broken and dead. There being no railing around the abut- ment, he evidently walked off during the night. as it is supposed he was intoxicated at the time. He served in the llth Conn. Reg't during the late war, and received an honorable discharge. There he could have met with an honorable death instead of the one recorded. But how can it be other wise, with seven liquor saloons to less than 300 population, and no protection 10 bridges. This is the second case of the kind within few weeks. ... MT. w. H. Dean recently purchased the liquor saloon lately occupied by Lepean, and is converting it into a salesroom for his tin wares, for which improvement. the public should feel grate' full. CLARIo.
