THE MILL RIVER DIsAsTER.-A
large number of witnesses were ex-
amined at the inquest in Northamp-
ton, Tuesday, including engineers,
contractors and Others connected with
the building of the reservoir. The
testimony presented damaging ar
ray of facts, showing the insecurity of
the foundations and the sham con-
struction of the dam, as we'll as the
; gross neglect of precautions by those
who have had the oversight of the
reservoir. One witness, an engineer,
was so affected by the character of his
own testimony that he tainted and
had to be taken out of the courtroom.

A PROPOSITION recently made to
remove the remains of Andrew Jack
sou to the Capital grounds at Nash
vile has brought out a letter from
the distinguished dead which seems
quite appropriate. In the year 1899
Commodore ). d. Elliott brought
from Rome a sareophagus, the tomb
of the Emperor Alexander Severus,
which he presented to the national
institute as worthy resting place
for the remains of Gen. Jackson. In
March, 1S45, the General rose from
2 sick bed to reply that he could not
consent to be laid in a repository
prepared for an Emperor or King;
his Republican feelings and princi-
pies forbade it, the simplicity of
our Government forbade it. "True
virtue" he said, cannot exist when
pomp and parade are the ruling
passion"
