Late Blankets.


The receipts in Boston for the past
week have been 3, 66t boxes and 81 tons.
There has been fair demand for cheese,
but the quality does not give satisfac-
ton, and it has been very difficult to
place lots at our outside quotations. The
sales of New York and Vermont factory
bave been principally at 114t@12c, and
12c is the highest that dealers are willing
to pay except for something very fine
A few lots of choice Ohio sold at 12c,
but most of the transactions have been
at 11@114c per pound.
BUTTER.
The St. AIbans market was only fair
ly active We quote the best grades
from % to CSC; and Soc for gilt edge"
At Boston the receipts of butter for
the week have been 1857 packages
against 8,349 packages for the cores
| ponding week last year. About three
fourths of the receipts are Western, of
ordinary quality, which sells slowly,
but the supply of desirable grades has
| barely been sulflClcnt Tor the demand
| New York aud Vermont choice diaries
sold readily at 81 a CSC per h., in
straight lots, and some selections at a
higher figure Really fine Western, to
take the place of Northern, has been in
request at % a Csc per h., but this also
ran short, and the market closes with a
firm tone for the best grades of New
York, Vermont and Western. There is,
however, an accumulation of medium
butter, as the demand is principally for
the lowest and highest grades, and plen-
ty of fair Western is offering at IS a
26c per Id. Common at about 16c and
under is wanted but the offerings con-
tinue light.

The Great Railroad Robbery.


Dies MONIES, Iowa, July %.
4 thousand conjectures are current
here in regard to persons who robbed
the train on the Rock Island railroad.
The most noticeable one is that the rob
berry was committed by persons living
near where the robbery took place. A
valise used to carry off the money taken
from the express safe was found five
miles south of the wrecked train to-day.
Vigilant parties are securing Iowa, and
it is confidently believed the robbers will
be caught if they remain within the state
A telegram says the robbers crossed the
Burlington and Missouri railroad last
night at midnight

CONDUCTORS ACCOUNT

William A Smith, the conductor of
the Inflated train, testified that he went
forward to see who was hurt. The first
person he met was one of the masked
men near the baggage car door, who
pointed a revolver in each hand, and
told them to get back, firing at the same
time. The passengers were in a hubub,
and the women and children were cry
ing. He tried to borrow a revolver, but
failed. Could see a man from where he
was, and saw another passing up and
down on the opposite side Of the train.
Some of the passengers asked him to get
in the train, as these men were firing at
him and would be the cause of some of
them being killed. He then went into a
sleeping car at the rear, still trying to
get a revolver and urging the passengers
to keep quiet. Two balls passed through
his clothing while trying to reach the
engine. After the passengers got quiet

at the hind end of the smoking car, and

DAMP RCMORS.

The most imposing ceremony of the
Reunion week. will be the torch light
parade on the evening of the 7th. 1t is
intended to march in procession through
the streets, and if a suitable field can be
obtained to go through some of the evo-
lutions of Division and Brigade drills.
Such a display of fire works has never
been seen in Rutland.
Capt Romeo II. Start of Burlington,
has organized a battery of artillery, and
they will be prepared to serve the guns
like veterans. Capt. Start has served
his apprenticeship on "big guns"
Maj. Hazelton's cavalry troop will
do the scouting for the Reunion. Am
Pile provisions have been made for sup
plies, so that no foraging will be neces-
sary. We understand this troop is to
be fully mounted and equipped
Maj. Salisbury has appointed Mr.. j.
II. Dyer as Adjutant of the. Rutland Co.
battalion. This will insure the most
correct details in that command.
Capt. II. O. Wheeler of Grand Isle
County is marshalling the Veterans of
the Sea, and every man is expected from
his jurisdiction who drew a blade or
shouldered a muskct for the Union.
The Free Press says the boys are fast
mastering their forces all over the State
to march to Rutland on the 9Th of Au-
gust next for a three days jubilee.
Col i. G. Kingsley, Q. NJ. General
of the Reunion forces, has made ample
provisions for the comfort and accom-
mediation Of the soldiers who may at
tend the Reunion. Tents, straw and
wood will tie furnished, also cooking
stoves rs far as possible. Companies
and detatchments may bring their own
rations. and run their own mess, if they
desire to, otherwise the Quarter-Master
will furnish all supplies needed, includ-
ing Euchrc Decks.
There is rum0r in some quarters
that Brigade Commanders are having
difficulty in selecting proper officers for
Commissaries on their Brigade Staffs.
This will be provided for, however, in
| due season.

Meeting the rail at both ends. A rope
and strap were tied in the bolt holes of
the disconnected rail at the west end,
and the rope passed across the ditch and
up on the bank. The passengers on the
train report the scene as terrible, and
battles all description. When the crash
came all were thrown forward, some en-
tirely out of their seats. Then came
recoil, and Immediately after they heard
firing, but supposed it came from the
wreck. Many men jumped from the
cars and started to get forward, and
were ordered back by the robbers, who
continued firing and enforcing their
commands by terrible oaths and threats.

A speei.e. Of spanish Crsesay.


A a most touching instance OF heroism and
a most atrocious act of cruelty, the truth o.
which is vouched for by the most respectable
authority, occurred during the Columbian
struggle for independence.
The Spanish Gen. MorillO, the mos
bloodthirsty and treacherous tool OF the
Spanish King, was created Count Of Carta.

which rather entiile him to the bIichery OF

While seated in his tent one day he saw o
Young boy before him drowned in tears. The
chief demanded of him for what purpose he
was there.
The child replied that he had come to
beg the life of his father, then a prisoner in
MorilIo's camp.
"What can you do to save your fa,her?"
asked the General.
81 can do but little, but what can shall
be done"
Morillo seized the little fellows ear, and
said: "Would you suffer your ear to be taken
of to procure your fathers life?"
81 certainly would" was the undaunted
reply.
The boy wett, but did not resist while the
barbarols order WAS executed.
"Woui6 you loee Your other ear rather
than fail Of your purposeY" WAS the next
question.
81 have suffered much, but for my father
I can suffer still" WAS the answer Of the
boy.
The other ear was taken of pescemeal,
without hinchios On the part OF the noble
boy.
:'And now CO." exclaimed Morillo, I'M
touched by his sublime courage; 1.-THE father
of such son must die"
In the presence Of his aeonized and vainly
suffering son, the patriot father was executed.

assertions from the newspaper press, as we'll
as from the politicians; there are those to

from Leavenwor,h, the home OF Gov. Os-

Caldwell, is a surprise, not to say a severe
disappointment, to all or nearly all other
sections Of the State. 1t had been expected,
and partially given out, that the selection
would be made from Southern or Western

Many politicians. having an eye single to
the Senatorial vacancy this winter, view, or
affect to view, the appointment with compla-
oency, regarding it az no augmentation of
the strength OF Gov. Osborn himself, or that
Mr.. Croz;er is likely to succeed to..an election

are confirmed in their convictions that Leav.
