A matter is said to be under discus
sion among representatives Of the
New York Central and Hudson, Erie
and Pennsylvania Railroad Compa-
MES, looking TO pooling Of the
freight earnings of the roads. Each
company is to pay its actual running
expenses, and the balance remaining
is to be equitably divided. The pro-
ject is regarded with favor by the ssv-
ersl roads, and there Is 4 possibility
that the arrangement will be eonsuni-
mated. The effect Of the combina.
ton upon the business interests Of the
West would be the reverse OF bened.
cial. Il would practically destroy
competition and largely increase the
price Of freights from the East 10 the
West. It is 8 corrupt combination,
organized for purposes Of extOrtioD,
and should be defeated, at any cost,
by the business men both East and
West. Chicago Times. ----- ----

state Prison and Temperance,

Rev. F. Butler, chaplain of the Yer
mont State Prison at Windsor, makes a
very excellent report, and includes in
it good temperance lecture. He says !:
l. The jails and the prisons are the
legitimate receptacle of the victims of
bad homes and street vagrancy. Most
Of the inmates of this institution came
from such quarters.
z. The repression of drinking
and of the unlawful sale of intoxicating
liquors is of the highest Importance to
the moral and material well.being of
the State. More than three-ffths of the
inmates here are confessedly addicted to
the use of strong drink. and large ma.
Jority of them attribute their crime and
imprison nent directly to the baneful in.
Adence of liquor.
3. Helpful encouragement to i'm
prisoned and to discharged convicts in
their endeavors to reform, is an impera
tive duty, as well of the State as of in.
dividuals. The tempted and fallen may
yet be the strong and useful. To treal
men as worthless outcasts because the
iron door has once been closed upor
them is alike poor philanthropy and bat
policy.

COUNTRY LIFE.-The great trouble of
country life is lack of subjects for
thought and conversation. The mind
wants other food than the dull details in
the daily treatment of home duties
Hence We are apt to take an unnecessary
interest in what should be the private
affairs of our neighbors. Much of the
foolish gossip and the detestable scandal
which is the bane of many village, is
the natural result of an unoccupied
mind. Satan has an employment office
for idle tongues as well as idle hands.
Get up Magazine Club and there
will be healthier tone throughout your
society; and if you live in a blissful
Utopia, where malice and gossip are I'M
known, you will certainly need variety
of reading to produce little excite
ment. With Appleton's Journal, Ar.
thurs Magazine, Edinburgh Review,
Popular Science Monthly, Harper's
Monthly and Overland Monthly, you
will have enough to think of and dis
cuss and will find yourselves wide awake
and improving every day.

The Ross BoY.-The father of the
stolen Ross boy has been driven crazy
by the cruel ISLANDERS and abuse that has
been heaped upon him and his family
by the mischief making babblers who
have heartlessly assaulted them since the
loss of their child. In the late preliml-
nary hearing of the suit brought by Mr..
Ross against the Reading Eagle, Mr..
and Mrs. Ross, as we'll as Mr.. Lewis.
the brother of the latter, denied under
oath all the imputations against the
family, and cleared themselves fully in
the eyes of the public. But these calum
niators have done their work fearfully
and Enthusiastically. For several weeks
it was plain to be seen that Mr.. Ross
was in rapid decline. A correspon-
dent who sees him frequently says that
anguish is weighing him down. He be-
came detected, melancholy, morbid.
Soon he was confined to his bed, and is
berett of reason, crazed by grief. He
knows nothing, remembers nothing but
the loss Of his boy and all the trouble
that has followed in its train. At first
1t was thought he had typhoid fever, but
there is no fever there, nothing but 6
shattered frame and mental imbecility
de does not know his wife, and in hi
worst paroxysms of grief drives hel
from him. Shortly before reason en-
tirely left him he said: :" / can bear tn,
loss of my property and the loss of Char
ley-even that God helps me to bear
but this Islander and calumDy against m,
wife and myself-thst is what break
me down." Later reports say that MI
Ross cannot long survive, and that hi
wife is also in danger of becoming in
sane from grief. Our readers will re
member that we having given in tn
Banner what we believed to be gooC
reasons why these false rumors abou
the Ross family could not be true an,
while We are rot surprised we are deer
ly grieved that they have resulted .
direfully to the beresved parents. Ben

Mr.. HenrY's Judiciary Bill,

The bill introduced in the House re-
latlng to the judiciary makes radical

DRowNED.-The North Troy Palla-
dunn says: There was sad case of
drowning at Troy, last Sunday, 4th inst.
Charles Horton and Deforest Buck were
out walking near the river opposite the
village. Seeing butternut tree they
thought they would get few to eat, and
SO halted under the tree. Seeing Mr..
Smalley coming up, they started for the
river and sought to reach the opposite
bank. Young Buck succeeded in gain.
ing the shore and started for the woods
all the while thinking that Mr.. Horton
had been as fortunate as himself. Buck
went home. In the meantime Horton
did not make his appearance, and search
was made for him. About three O'Clock
his body was found some six rods from
where he went into the river. He wa
much respected by all who knew him
He was from Bolton, this State, and was
