eve have pettioned the legislature now in
session for authority to extend our road from
Gardner to Wnchendon, and to have the act Of
1869, in relation to a union depot in Worcester,
made applicable to this corporation, the same as
TO others named in the act, two propositions
which seem to us so reasonable that we cannot
believe that any serious opposition can be made
to them.
"On the ninth day of June last Just as our
work was laid out and the construction of the
road fairly commenced. our accomplished and
faithful chief engineer, Mr.. A. r. Field, was
killed by an accident on the Rutland and Bur.
lington railroad. The loss to us was great, and
we take this opportunity to express our high
appreciation Of him as an engineer and man.
Since the death of Mr.. Field, Mr.. Edwin STRAIT.
ton who was an assistant engineer on the road
has acted as chief assisted by Mr.. VIM. A. Gould
of Worcester
when our contractors commenced the work
on our road they were comparatively strangers
to MS. By their energy, system and faithful
manner of doing the work, and by their honOra
BILE and fair dealing with the corporation, theil
own employees, and the business community
they have won our confidence and respect"

A SINGULAR CAsE.-A few days since, a
physician in this city was called to attend a
woman in confinement, and after the child was
born its father took it in his arms and laid it in
the lap of his other child girl three and
halfyears old, who was sitting in an adjoining
room. The girl, as soon as the baby was laid in
her lap, screamed, apparently either with fear
or anger, and was Immediately attacked with
commissions, and died in a few minutes The
physician was present, and applied such RENE
dies as seemed proper, but without avail. He
considers it one of the most remarkable incl
dents in his twenty-five years of professional ex-
perence.-Gdzette.

NORTH CAROLINA-IMPEACHMENT


RALEIGH, Jan. 23.-Gov. Holden's answer to
the articles of impeachment commence by re-
terring to the protest of Jonathan Worth, his
immediate predecessor, against the legality OF
ms election under the reconstruction acts, and
traces, thereto, the formation, throughout the
state, of set Of political combinations with the
purpose of rendering practically null the recon-
structon acts and the right OF suffrage con-
ferred on the colored people, 1t details out
RACES perpetrated by said combinations in
scourging, whipping, mutiating and numbering
colored people and white persons of obnoxious
political sentiments. gives horrid catalogue
OF the outrages; it declares that in no one in
stance had the perpetrators been brought to
justice, as the kukluX khan had control of the
grand and petit juries in these counties,
and that said counties were declared by
him in state of instruction, only
when the civil tax had been wholly
impeded, when reign Of terror existed, when
murder stalked about in the land, and persons
whose hands were red with the blood of their
victims, remained unnotced it iustities the

crimes detailed, or the abettors thereof; it ad-

napeas corpus, and justi'ies himself on the
GROUND OF public necessity, and insists that
Shlei Jusucc Pearson sustained the legality of
ms actlon upon the principle that the safety of
the state is the supreme law; the allegation that
he appropriated money when an injunction was
pending to the contrary, he meets with a gener-
al denial. The answer fully satisfies Gov. Hol-
den.s friends, aud is generally regarded as a
vindication, though the other side consider ii
