RAILROAD ACCIDENT. William G. Bassett, a
brakeman on the Norwich & Worcester railroad
was run over by the boat train at New London,
early Sunday morning, and seriously injured.
1t appears that while waiting for the arrival of
the New York boat he fell asleep between the
rails. When the train started his body was
caught between the brake-rods and the sleepers
and dragged along on the track, but fortunately
did not get under the wheels. No bones were
broken, but he received very severe bruises about
the head and shoulders. Mr.. Bassett was mar
ried and resided in this city. He was brought
up on the train and taken to the city hospital.
He will undoubtedly recover, provided he has
received no internal injuries.

that point. On the 9Th instant, Gen. Schenck

Mr.. Fish says: General Schenck informed

bound under the treaty to file counter case; and
that their doing so will not prejudice any position

United States; but that the rights of both parties
will be the same after filing before. General

The Wheat harvest.

The United States Economist asserts on
what it designates as abundant evidence"
that the aggregate yield of wheat this year
will fall below that of 1871 by 100000
bushels, the latter being counted at 230,-
000, 900 bushels and the former estimated
at 220, 100000. The Department of Agri
culture is the chief authority relied on;
and, indeed, there is no possible organiza-
ton outside of our extensive Government
machinery possessed of one tithe of the
facilities for collecting and digesting the
data requisite tor general crop estimates
1t is asserted that the average increase of
acreage was only two per cent, while the
average production has been indefinitely
but very materially deficient.
On the continent of Europe similar
condition is reported, as to the general ag-
gregate, with some countries exceeding
and others falling short of last years pro-
duction. The same is asserted of England,
as it is held that the recent genial and
highly favorable spell of weather can not
entirely redeem the crop and raise it to an
average basis.
On the 8th of June the total visible sup
ply of wheat in the United States was
5, 1876, 724 bushels against 5,36S, ,204 bushels
at the same time in 1871, and the steadily
decreasing movement to the seaboard
with peculiar condition Of the home mar
ket calculated to stimulate such move
ment, indicates that their is very little re-
maing in the hands of producers.

minutes after the adjournment of the

WHEREAS, Our beloved brother, James
HI. Hodge, having completed his labOrs in

to call him to labor i'll the Great Lodge ce-
lestial, beyond that bourne from whence
no traveller returns, he having crossed the
abyss from time to eternity on the 18th

Resolved, That we deeply mourn the
loss of our brother and fellow labOrer, but
while we naturally mourn his loss, we are
made to rejoice that our great temporal

relations our heartfelt sympathies and join

dear to them and so beloved by us.

Camnaign Notes.

In Otsego county, New York, a call has
lately been published for Grant and Will
son Club. Twenty-seven of the signers
were men who some months ago signed a
call for Greeley Club. They can't stand
to fight side by side with Tweed and Nor
rissey. They are deserting the sinking
ship. a. ze @ @
The Terra Haute Journal Dem. says
under no circumstances will it support
Greeley. The Seymour. Democrat says the
same, and claims twenty thousand Indi-
ana Democrats who will not vote for the
man who has said more hard things of the
Democracy than any living man.
The Philadelphia Press claims that only
Hartranft and Allan will be defeated in
October. The balance of the State ticket
it says will surely be elected by many
thousands. Other advices from Pennsyl-
vania represent the election of the whole
ticket certain.
The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Times says: Secretary Bout
well returned this morning from MaSsa-
chusetts, and gives as his impression of the
political situation in the East after taking
with many shrewd politicians, that Gen.
Grants majority will be much greater
demoralized over the Greeley movement,
and many will vote for Grant in prefer
ance to Horace.
While in New York Mr.. Boutwell, con-
versed with many influential men, bank
ers, merchants and lawyers, and all agreed
that the State will give Grant large ma
jority. and that there is every prospect that
the city also will be carried against Gree
ley. Reports received here from other
States are equally as encouraging as the
above.

! Colonel McKinzie, COMMANDING tbo

Richardson, Texas, June 4th, saws the In
dian depredations are becoming alarminU
ly frequent and that the depredators are
Kiowas and Camanchees who are fed daily
by the Indian Agent on the Canadian
river.
In endorsing this communication Lieut.
Gen. Sheridan says all the Indians on the
frontier are engaged in this bad work anC
that he-sees no way to stop their outrage;
except by the action of the military at For
Sill and Camp Sup ply. He Herequests of the
War department permission to go in and
wipe out the hostile Indians, and says the
idea of trying to protect the long line Of
Northern Texas from Indians who are sup.
piled with food, arms and ammunition al
the reservation, seems to him ridiculous.
Secretary Boutwell, will visit North
