NEW YORK..


New YORK, April I'm consequence
Of the gas mems strike, the city last
night, below Grand street, was mostly
without lights Pickering lights shone
along Broadway. City parks are illd'
minated with gas jets that become sick
lier as the late hours go on. Most of the
eastern and western portions Of the city
including business regions occupied by
immense warehouses and stores cram.
med with fabrics and wares worth mil
lions, lay In darkness. The sub-treasury,
postoffice, storehouses and numerous
second rate hotels which held thousands
Of guests burnt kerosene and candles.
Rays from sperm and tallow pierced the
night from newspaper buildings. Print
Ing House Square, saloons and leading
houses along the wharves shed forth a
dim light. 1t is possible the Manhattan
gas works may to-day be deserted by the
strikers, in which case tonight will be
the most dismal ever a citizen yentured
in the metropolis.
A Tribune special from Halifax dated
yesterday says all that remains of the
Atlantic lies Ia circular cove nearly
parallel with the shore. She is distant
about forty feet from the rock on which
he passengers first landed. Her posi-
ton iuStifes the inference that when
the order was given to reverse the en-.
gines the helmsman brought her head
slightly around 1t is impossible that
she could have been thrown along the
shore. Officers OF the Coast Wreoking
Company, who came down to raise her,
say that was imprsoticable. After the
vessel struck she broke in two at the
foremost, her fore part having surged
forward tn the shore. leaving eighty feet
between them. A Tribune correspond
ent says it is impossible that the ship
could have ever reached her present po-
sition without the greatest oarelessuess.

The ethsF morning a city minister
opened his front door suddenly, and sur-
prised guilty looking man, who was
just in the act of depositing a neatly
covered basket on the door step. The
meeting was not rapturous. AhaW

The mlnisssF had a pensive, unhappy
look, aud corrugated brow, as he dis

later. Evidently there had been a mis-
understanding.

A VIRGINIA ROMANCE
over a year ago young man living near
Wheeling, w. Va, was arrested for
horse stealing, and girl named Sarah
G. Winemiller, who was deeply attached
to him, wanted to share his Jail life,
This being refused, she became almost
crazed with fear that he would be sent
to the penitentiary, determined to 20
with him. So she set fire to a school
house, that was also used as place of
worship. For this reason she was ar
rested, convicted and sentenced to two
years imprisonment in the penitentiary.
When "Sarah's young mans" trial came
on, the charge against him fell to the
There was nothing in it, SO
Sarah went to the penetentiary alone,
"all for love-" On the 22d of Novem.
Der Gov. Jacobs signed her pardon, and
she was soon set free to go and find her
lover, for whom she had suffered so
much.

IMPORTANT DECISION. The Supreme
Court of Maine have made an impor-
tant decision, which is also of practical
Importance to the people of Vermont.
1t will be remembered that we have q
law authorizing towns to exempt from
taxation, for term of years, all expend-
itures made for manufacturing purposes,
provided that over one thousand dollars
shall be invested. A similar law passed
the Legislature of Maine and, under
provision of their constitution, similar to
our own, that taxes should be equally
assessed, has been decided invalid. The
court further decides that town cannot
aid manufacturing enterprise, and that
the Legislature cannot authorize towns
to extend such aid. The Court further
unanimously held that towns may aid
railroads. They say that railroads are
improved public ways, and railroad cor
porations quasi public corporations,
while manufacturing companies are pri-
vate business. This decision settles the
right of towns to aid railroads, and
overthrows the policy of towns aiding
manufacturing enterprises.
