Business projects in this place are as
suming more encouraging shape. Dur
ing the past year, two large brick busi-
ness blocks have been erected on the cor
ners Of Main and Depot streets, and other
improvements are in progress. 1t is said
that the Lamson b Goodnow manufacture
ing company, whose contract for labor
at the Prison expires next May, will erect
a large brick building near the gas house,
for the manufacture of scythe-snathes.
Through the politeness of one of the gen.
tlemen connected with the establishment,
I had the pleasure of visit to
THE AsCUTNEY MILLS
to-day. These cotton works are in the
large four-story shop formerly known as
the "Armory." Here, during the war,
thousands of guns were made for the gov.
ernment, but now it is to be put to more
peaceful uses. The building has sustain
ed thorough renovation, and will COM
pare favorably with many of our most ex-
tensive mills. 1t is heated by steam and
lighted by gas. The steam engine has
been overhauled ard new boiler has
taken the place of an old one. The first
floor is occupied as the carding room; the
second contains the spinning, weaving
and dressing rooms. Here are 112 looms
of the most approved pattern, built by
the Windsor Manufacturing Company,
whose extensive machine shops still oc.
cupy all on the north side of Mill Creek
and one room on the south side. On the
third floor are two pairs of mules 1900
spindles each. The fourth story will prob
ably contain another pair. The first trial
of the machinery was satisfactory. About
sixty hands will be employed, at present,
% males and 35 females In two or three
weeks at least, everything will be run
ming The proprietors of the Ascutney
mills are Messrs. Jones, Lamson & Co.
The former has had large experience in
the cotton mills of Massachusetts,. 1t is
expected that, before another year, ad-
ditions will be made to the permanent
working force. Affairs at

Stopping q NEWSPAPER

One of our exchanges has the fol-
lowing allegory, which we commend
to the careful consideration of those
gentlemen who, the moment they see
anything which displeases them in the
columns of their local journal, rush to
the printing office and cry out, rs top
my paper" 1t is certainly a new
song upon the old subject.
"a certain man hit his toe against
pebble and fell 'headlong to the
ground He was vexed, and under
the influence of anger and selfsutfi
cheney, he kicked the arth right sauci-
ly. With imper turable gravity he
looked to see the earth remained and
only his poor foot was injured in the
encounter. This is the way of man.
An article in a newspaper touches
him in weak spot, and forthwith he
sends to stop his paper. With great
comrlacency he looks to see the
crash, when he finds he only hit his
own toe against world that does not
perceptibly feel the shock, and Injuries
no one but himself"

| and the result was that she took n
trip to New York witt "nice yound
man." Her husband stood it for
about three weeks, and II . longer. So
he started after her and brought her
home, forgiving her for al she had
done if she would only consent to live
with him. OF course she consented
to ali this, for the old mans purse
was Just what she wanted to handle,
and nothing else. About this time
Mr.. Montgomery played an engage
ment at the Boston Museum. Miss

had left our shores but day, he was

turned out to be our heorine. A mu-
tual friendship sprung up between
them on the voyage, when she inform
ed him that she was madly in love
with him and had followed him on
his voyage home IN order that she
might be near him. She passed her
self off as maiden, and Montgomery
believed her. To make long story
short, he subsequently married her,
believing in doing SO that he was
marrying a maiden, who loved him
for himself alone. The day after he
was married he found out that she
whom he had made his wife already
had husband in Boston. 1t will be
remembered that in a week he was to
sail for his country, and that he was
engaged by some of our lycums to
give readings. 1t was too much for a
gentleman Of his sensitive NATURE to
face the public in this city with these
facts standing prominently before
them. 1t would be the gossip of the
city and sent broadest through the
country. 1t was too much for his
nerves, and the result was that he
took his own life. This is given as
the true cause of Walter Montgom-
ery's suicide. Whether the wife can
satisfy her conscience in the part she
has played in this tragedy is a ques
ton we leave entirely to her alone.
Her husband, now in this city, has
come to the conclusion that he is bet
ter off without her, and will soon en-
ter a suit for a dicorce.

The New York Democratic Conve1-
ton was unequal to the work of cut
ting off the Tammany Hall ring OF
thieYes, now under conviction by the
general verdict. The ring remains
recognized as i'll the possession Of the
regular committee OF the city, and is
left with simply an exhortation to
purify itself, while the Democratic or
ganization that has been raised in OBJ
position to Tammany, since the con-
viction of the thieves, was denied ad
mission to the convention because oi
irreguiarity. Regularity was accept
cd as superior to the necessity for cut
ting off the convicted thieves. The
convention made virtuous professions,
bat 1t directly consigned the organi-
zation ofthe Democratic party in New
York City to the coatrol Of Tweed
Democrats who had undertsken the
reform movement.
The accounts Of the spirit OF the
convention seem to show that the ru.
raj delegates were ready to cut off the
rammany organization; but the State
Committee was powerful in control
ing the convention, and its policy was
to temporiZe and the probability is
that If the convention had tried the
heroic treatment with Tweed, he
would have made contest that would
have endangered rupture of the con-
rehtion. The result is that the Dem
ocratic State Convention has shown
itseif incapable of dealing with this
geng OF thieves, even when the gigan-
tic stealing is universally admitted
and is virtually confessed. It has
given forth platitudes in favor ofhon-
est government; but these are q
nockery when it Gid not-sdare to eject
