CAVALRY ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Gibbs
the energetic secretary of the Vt. Life
Insurance Company, gives in the Yeteran
a local advertising sheet, the foil wing
cavalry aneodote which has never before
appeared in print:
At Front Royal, in the Shenandoah
Valley. in May, 1862, Stonewall Jackson
with $4,000 men, came down upon the
garrison, consisting of single regiment.
This was Col. Murphy's 1st regiment OF
Maryland Infantry, composed of Germans
mostly. The Germans being unaware of
the immense rebel force being pushed
against them; s'ood their ground and
fought with desperation. At one point, a
half dozen soldiers became separated
from their regiment, which was nearly
apnihilsted.
1t will be remembered that after the
Bull Run fight. the War Department is
sued orders, deducting twelve dollars
from the monthly pay of those who threw
away their guns.
These Germans who were surrounded,
still kept loading and firing until one
after another had fallen. Our hero was
nearly the last man left, and he was or
dered to give up his musket He exhibit
ed the same uuyielding spirit to the last,
"If lose my gun it will cost
me twelve tollar." He died at his post.

difficult and dangerous matter to handle,
yet it is treated in such q manner as will
commend itself to the Judgment of all
candid men, and supply want long felt
in its special department. It's general
circulation must result in general good,

which has caused vast amount of suffer

successor in Austria is Count Andrassy, a
respectable statesman, but not to be nam
ed on the same day with his predecessor.

CONSTITUTIONAL DIFFICULTIES IN
AUSTRALIA appears from the lateHt
news that the policy of decentralization,
which Austria has been pursuing since
1856. and particularly since Won Beust
became Chancellor of the empire. is in
danger of falling through. The Czechs
of Bohemia have demanded autonomy,
and it is only few days since the Em-
peror Francis Joseph publicly made it
known to the Bohemians that he should
consent to be crowned their King. 1t is
difficult to believe that Won Beust did not
give his consent to this policy. 1t is
we'll known that he was the father of
Hungarian autonomy. The disintegra-
ton policy has been a little too fruitful.
The Austrian Germans are grumbling,
aud it is possible that Won Beust has
taken fright. If Francis Joseph does not
fulfil his promise TO the Czschs the Aus
trian empire is in danger. The great
trouble is that danger lies as much in the
way of insction as of action. Many
thoughtful men fear, and not without
reason, that the Austrian empire is doom
ed.

Loss.

On the 18th Of October, 1871, the Yer
mont Life issued a policy to Charles d.
Chase of Bethel, for one thousand dollars,
for the benefit of his mother. He paid
the first quarterly premium of twelve dol
lars and fifty cents. but failed to pay
those due On the 18th days of January,
April and july following, and he after
ward died. His parents supposing that
the policy was void from the non-pay-
ment of the premiums, were surprised to
learn that the non -forfeitable provisions
Of the policy extended until past his
death Hon. Elzur Wright, the consult.
ing aotnary and the author of the Massa-
chusetts non-forfeiting law, decided that
the premium paid would extend the poll
cy az temporary insurance for 212 days
from the lapse of the policy by reason of
the first non payment of premium. The
company settled the lOss on the 1st inst.
The above fact epeaks for itself in favor
of company iseuing policies so just and
equitable to the insured-but few COM
panies doing business in this State adopt
what is called the non-forfeiting law of
Mass 4chusetts It is fact worth know.
ing that the first policy issued by the
company was on the life of native OF
Bethel, and the first loss on native of
the same town.--FT66 Press.

The FIRST snow-storm OF the season
came on Friday and Saturday. Sufficient
snow fell to make it good sleighing here,
which the people are improving. As much
snow fell as at any one time last winter.

The Offering of cheese at the the Utica

the transactions were very light at IS

same price was realized at Fort Plain
The open question now is, who shall hold
the stock of cheese in the country dur.

factorymen themselves or by the deal
ers.

PLYMOUTH.-Plymout has been in
tested with party of young men, whose
object seems to be to make themselves
notorious and odious to the community
by breaking windows and committing
other petty depredations.
One evening, recently, after commenc-
ing their operations by throwing stones
through the windows of peaceable citi-
zens, they threw into Patch's brook, near
the furnace, quantity of pig iron, be-
longing to the Spathio Iron Company.
This time they had their labor for their
pains it being intimated by the Superin-
tendent, that unless the iron was replaced,
the young men, thus amusing themselves,
would come to grief the next night found
the iron back in the pile whence it was
taken.
The same night they removed a stringer
from the bridge, on the road from Tyson
Furnace to Ludlow assaulted man by
the name of Judd from Ludlow, and finish
ed their nights work by throwing stones
at two men, passing over the road, in a
wagon, hitting and somewhat injuring
one of them, Mr.. Gates of Ludlow.
Fer the last offsnse warrants were issued
for their arrest, and four of them were
occurred by the officer The two men,
who, it is alleged threw the stones, James
Creaser and Philip Creaser succeeded in
making their escape; one of them jumped
from barn window, and was followed by
the officer who fred three shots, from a
revolver, at him without effect-except to
hasten his fight; the other escaped out OF
an upper window of the house where be
boarded, and it is said both are now at
Port Henry, N. Y, where they have q
brother.
The furnace of the Spathic Iron Com
pany ia now in successful operation, max
ing Az tons of iron during the last week
Of October With new "blowing" ma
.hinery. requiring one-third less power
than the old, and su abundance of new
and superior ore, recently discovered, it's
prospects were never better.
The Collinsville Conn., Manufsc-
turing Company. most of whose large
stockholders are proprietors of the Spathic
Iron Co, lost about 50 900 by the Chicago
fire 1t Is understood that this loss will,
in no way. interfere with their business
operations, as they have, for several years,
made annual dividends of ten per cent.
to their stockholders, besides, in one year
setting aside 500. 900 for improvements.
w. F. Shedd, of Chester, proposes TO
build cheese factory at the Union, pro-
vided he is guaranteed the milk from

undoubtedly be complied with.
james Bailey, alumberman, was seri-
ouSly injured, few days since, while
alone in the woods. He had hitched his
oxen TO log some 80 or 40 feet in length,
and was stepping over it, when the oxen
started, throwing him down so that the
log passed over his legs and one arm, rest
ing partially over the hips. He lay in
this condition, for nearly an hour, before
assistance arrived. Although very seri-
ousIy injured, he is slowly recovering,

such that he could not procure all the books she

general. When about fourteen she surprised her
father by com posing poem, in correct measure,
though she knew nothing of poetic measurement
at the age of fifteen she commenced an apparent
ly successful career as a teacher. At sixteen,
however, she was married, and that marriage
was crushinyly unhappy. About eight years af-
forwards she separated from her husband, and
batted heroically with the difficulties of her po-
sition for two years. She obtained a divorce in
February, 1889. Soon after she became aquaint-

were married Dec. 5th, 1869. With him she
lived, as she said on her death bed, the TIVE hap
piest years of her life. Her complicated and de-
