Roscoe CoNKLING.-Roscoe Conkling
was, Wednesday, unanimously renom-
mated by the Republican members of
the New York Legislature for United
States Senator. There was no man, if
we except Gen. Grant, that the coali-
tionists more bitterly hated and strove to
defeat This unanimous denomination
is a fit rcbukc to them as well
as tribute to Mr.. Conkling's sterling
republicanism and effective labors dur
ing the presidential campaign.

SUDDEN DEATH IN BENNINGToN.-
Mrs. Julia A. Pratt, an aged lady, was
found, Sunday, dead in her bed, at her
home in Bennington, where she resided
alone About nine o'clock a Mr.. Har-
wood, as was his custom, visited the
premises and MIXED the cow After
milking he returned TO the house and
discovered that Mrs. Pratt was not yet
up Going to the bed room door he
saw her lying on the bed, partially COW
cred, dead Summoning her son, the
neighbors were made acquainted with
the affair and an inquest called. The
body was scarcely cold when discovered,
the tongue protruding from the mouth,
and one side Of the face being black.
Her death probably resulted from old
age, although a fit, judging from the
appearance of the body, is supposed by
many to have been the immediate cause
of her death.
WOULDN'T SELL.-The meeting of the
voters of the town of Montpelier, on
Friday last, to see if the town would
vote to dispose of its stock in the Mont
pelier and Wells Biyer railroad, called
out large attendance of voters. Mr..
c. J. Gleason explained the object of
the call, which was for the town to so
dispose of its stock as to enable the en-
tire amount so owned to be voted on,
instead of only one tenth of it, and so
protect the town against any combina-
tion which might be made antagonistic
to its interests. L did not appear that
any such combinations were on foot at
present, nor did it appear that any offer
had been made for the stock, nor indeed,
that any one wanted to buy it; and the
article in the warning concerning such
sale was promptly dismissed, by very
large majority.
