Important Legal Decision.

HARTFORD, Ct. sept. 26.-The Uni
ted States circuit court for the district OF
Connecticut is now in session 10 this city
Judges Woodruff and Shipman on the
bench.
The jury in the case of Mrs. Gay
against the Union Mutual Insurance
Company to recover $4,000, the amount
of the policy ON the life of her husband,
today rendered verdict for the full
amount with interest, amounting to So
751, 40. Sheridan Gay, the husband, shot
himself on the cars between this city and
Providence, in 1869. The defense was
thathe deliberated suicide in consequence
of heavy defalcations in New York, and
that as the policy exempted suicides the
widow could not recover. The plaintiff
put in plea of insanity and introduced
many witnesses, showing his previous
condition. The arguments made were
among the ablest ever heard in this city.

The CHURCHMAN.-M. H. Mallory &
Co., publishers of The Churchman, of
this city, have brought that paper up
until it has circulation not only larger
than that of any other Church paper,
but very nearly as large as the combin-
ed circulation of all the others. They
are about to give hitherto unparalleled
example of enterprise in religious week
ly. The Triennial Convention of the
Episcopal Church will open its session
in Baltimore, October 4th, and continue
about three weeks. Mallory & Co. will
issue The Churchman daily during the
Convention, and give verbatim report
of the proceedings, as full as The Globes
congressional report. The photographic
reporting will be conducted by Mr.. d.
f. Murphy, chief of the official corps of
reporters in the United States Senate,
aided by sufficient number of his own
corps. This report will be adopted by
the Convention as official, and afterward
published in pamphlet form, as usual

A RAILROAD INCIDENT. "A gentle
man relates the following incident which
occurred lately on New York Central
express train: As the cars stopped at a
station an apple boy rushed in, and a
passenger, after patronizing him, cut
open an apple and took silver half
dollar out of it, greatly to The boys as
constituent. eff that is the kind of
fruit you sell I'll take another" said the
passenger: which he did, and 10 there
was another half-dollar inside it. As
suming great excitement, he then asked
the boy what he would take for the
whole basket of apples, saying it would
be great speculation. But the lad re-
fused to sell, even at five centss apiece,
and commenced cutting open his unsold
apples in a vain search for silver half
dollars. The lucky passenger was a
well known travelling magician.

Some workmen, while making ex-
cavations for a new building in London
recently, came upon Roman pavement,
several yards in extent, of red tesselae,
indicating it to be part of a Roman
city.
At the burial of Walter Montgom-
cry, the English actor who lately COM

An old gentleman is now living in
GAINESVILLE, O., at the age of 81, who

"A correspondent has been figuring
up the miles of existing telegraph wires.
1t appears there are 100000 miles in
Europe, 10000 in America, $4,000 in
India, 10000 in Australia and 10000 of
submarine cable. Total, 6S4,OO0 miles.
to which there are additions being made
at the rate of 100000 miles per year.
At this rate of increase it will not be
many years till all communications are
made by lightning, and nearly as cheap
ly as they were conducted twenty years
ago by mail.
A new style of working off the
queer" has been instanced at Dubuque,
La. A farmer there was visited by a fell
low who represented himself as an ex-of-
ticer In the government service, and of
fered chance to buy nickels at the rate
of fifty cents ON the dollar. The old
farmer took the bait, was led out in the
country few miles, and into cave.
where there were large number of box
es. One of them was opened, and con-
tanned 500 in nickels. The farmer then
paid $3.50, giving his note for the same
amount, and took home with him ten of
the boxes of nickels. He opened them
in his cellar, and found they contained
nothing but sand.

A STAGE Coach REMrNIscENcE.-

| n pIAdE NoACh hEMiNiothNSA-.
There used to be many pleasant circum-
stances connected with the old-iashioned
way of travelling in the stage coach.
Nine persons, entire strangers to each
other, would get into the coach, with
windows up and curtains down, and be-
fore they had rode two miles would be
well acquainted with each other and have
the affairs of their respective neighbor-
hoods fully canvassed-moras muticatus,
Berkshire pigs and Rohan potatoes. In
the cars, you hardly dare speak to your
nearest neighbor, much less ask young
lady to remove her packages and poodle
that you may have a seat. With all the
pleasures of journey in post coach,
occasionally something would transpire
to ruffie the feelings of the most sedate
passenger.
Formerly there were three Moodys and
a Root, who were running the stages
from Troy to Rutland. 1t will be re-
membered that there were two hills on
the route, namely, Oak Hill and Will
Jams HILL Oak Hill was very long,
steep and clayey, and in the spring it
was almost an impossbility to draw a
loaded coach to the summit. The
Moodys were great wags, especially Char
ley; so one day, as heavy laden coach
was coming up Oak Hill, one of the
wheels went into one of the almost bot
tomless clay holes, and all came to a
stand-still; in vain did Charley whip,
coax, scold and swear, but all to no avail
The horses could not or would not draw
out the load, so Charley, af err getting
some rails from fence near by, opened
the coach door and explained the situa-
ton to the passengers, and requested
them to get out, in order that he might,
with their assistance, extricate the wheel.
One of them, Rutland merchant, says:
"No, sir; | have paid my fare for ride
to Rutland, and am not going to work
my fare in this rain and mud" Char
ley tried every way possible to obtain as
sistance, but in vain. He finally gave
up discouraged, and taking an umbrella
quietly seated himself on a fence, under
chestnut tree, to await the decision of
the passengers, who had paid their fare
but still the passengers sat in the coach
aud Charley on the fence, the rain pour
ing down in torrents and the clay becom-
ing softer every moment. After half
hour had passed away, the passengers
waiting to pursue their journey, the Rut-
land merchant looked at Charley seated
upon the fence, as cool as could be, and
exclaimed, driver why don't you 90
on? why are sitting up there and wait
ingY Charley's laconic reply was, 81
am waiting for the ground to settle, so
that my horses can draw you up the hill,
as you have paid your fare!" 1t is need
less to say that the Rutland merchant
was soon upon his feet, getting ready to
put about $50 pounds on one end of a
chestnut rail to get the wheel out of the
hole.- Rutland Herald

KILLED.-The report now comes
from the south that all of the six con-
victs who went into the owen River
country are dead. This includes
Burke and Cockerell, though we have
no particulars of their death or cap
ture. 1t is pretty certain, however,
that if they have not been, they will
be, captured and killed. 1t is equally
certain that if young Roberts does not
die of his wounds he will die before
they heal up. y party of men from
Aurora came out to SweetWater the
other day to look for the three con-
victs seen on that stream by Indians,
and it is reported that while the hunt

hunted came out and walked off, fol-
lowing the road some four miles. We
think it safe to predict that they will
