The STORY OF THE MURDER of the poor
Dwyer children by their insane mother, as
told at the inquest yesterday, is heartrending
in the extreme 1t appears that the poor
woman's insanity was known, and that she
had been under restraint ten years ago. The
tragedy reads another lesson on the criminal
folly of leaving the insane at large, especially
among unprotected children.

GOVERNOR DIX HAS PROMISED careful ex-
animation of the charges preferred against
Mayor Havemeyer and prompt action upon
them. The appointment Of Mr.. Gardner, one
of the convicted Commissioners to the vacancy
in the Excise Board, besides being of doubtful
legality in other respects, is q renewed indica-
ton Of the determination of the Mayor to defy
the law and to insult the city. If Mr.. Gardner
is ineligible under the charter to appointment
as Police Commissioner, he is excluded from
holding any Office in the city government, and
the last freak Of the Mayor only aggravates the
offence he had previously committed

have united their voices with those that are

OUn NEWPORT LETTER reads refreshingly

always delightful, takes on new beauties year
after year and establishes its character more
and more securely as the leading watering
place of the United States.

before the public eye again by the alleged dis

it may afford another nine days wonder for the

The signal Service I'm New Eng
land.

The report of the chief signal officer has
the following concerning the stations IN
New England AT Bangor, Me-, the office
has distributed SO, Ala copies of the weather
bulletin since it was organized. The first
bulletin was issued Nov. 8, 1873. The av-
erage time of receiving the synopsis and
probabilities is 2 Is a. M, and the average
time for mailing 4.30 a. m. The officer in
charge reports that lively interest is taken
in the service by the citizens of Bangor,
and that the commercial men are anxious
to have cautionary signals displayed there,
and also at the mouth of the Penobscot.
AT Boston Sergeant Dietz was in charge
until March, 1874, when he was relieved
for misconduct and ordered to Fort Whip
pie, but deserted before he arrived at that
station. A large number of post offices are
supplied from this station with the farm
crs' bulletins. The recommendation is
made that the office be removed to the new
post office building, as the present location
is bad one Thirty-five cautonary sig
nails have been displayed, of which IA have
been fully verified. The cautionarv signals
are displayed from the roof of grain ele-
vator in East Boston, whence they are WIS.,
ibe from the greater portion of the harbor.
The officer in charge states that the public
interest in the station is daily increasing.
There have been issued from the Boston
Office since it was opened, 312 $50 farmers
bulletins and other weather notices. The
amount of rainfall during the year was

which 25 were verified. Reports are re-
ceived from 25 stations.
AT Mount Washington, N. H., rainfall

There has been considerable trouble in
keeping the instruments in repair, owing
to the extreme temperature, winds and
frosts. New instruments will be supplied
for use during the coming winter. Port

Springfield, Mass. Observations are not
made at this station, the work being con-
fined to the distribution of farmers bule-
tins; SO offices are supplied with two
copies daily.
Thatcher's Island-This station was es-
tablished in September, 1874, for the dis
play of cautonary signals only, and is not
supplied with instruments. 1t is connected
with the main land, and telegraph at Rock

signals has been erected Woods Hole

taken in the service at this station by sea-
going people is constantly increasing. The
sergeant reports that whenever signal is
hoisted nearly every vessel in sight puts in
to the harbor and remains until it is low
