The general complaint among the
farmers is that for want Of rain the
crops of all kinds are suffering severe
ly. This is particularly SO with re-
gard to the grass crops and it is pre-
Gicted that the yield this year will fall
much below the average.
The Connecticut river at this place
is much lower than it was at any
time during the season of 1872.

One of the most lamentable affairs
which it has ever been our duty 10 re-
cord occurred last Saturday, resulting
in the death of little Eddie, son of
DR.. L. and Abbie +. Mitchell, aged
two years and two months. A prep
aration for cleaning and frightening
silver which had been brought into the
house but an hour or two before was
standing on a table or low shelf, and
as the girl who was using it stepped
out of the room for moment, the lit
tie fellow, evidently thinking it was

solution might be poison-although she
knew nothing of its eharacter-cleans-
ed out the child's mouth and stepped
to the door TO tell its father, who was
ut that moment driving into the
yard. The child also went out. and
seeing his father, called out, Papa" !;
the next moment he was attacked with
commissions, and died in less than
an half hour. Physicians were at
once summoned, and every effort was
made to remove the poison from the
child's stomach and resucitate him,
sll however to no purpose The prep
aration drank by the child was pur-
chased at G. E. Aliens jewelry store,

West Milan.

AS the passenger train, due at
West Milan at 6. 80. p. M, was slow
ly approaching that station Saturday,
Miss Janette Corkum, aged II years,
in attempting to cross the track few
feet ahead Of the engine, was struck
by the cow catcher, throwing her
across the track, the engine, tender,
baggage car, and toward wheels of
smoking car, passing over her just
above her hips causing almost instant
death, and completely severing her body
i'll two. 1t is uncertain whether this
sad casualty was the result of acct
dent or design. 1t seems incredible
that she could have tailed to notice
the approaching train, and yet such
appeared to be the case. She was
walking across the track apparently
unconscious of danger and was struck
by the engine when about midway
across. She always appeared cheer.
full and happy, and there appears to
be no reason for supposing that she
wished to take her own life. The
blow falls heavily upon her family
and friends.
