COTTON.

The market this morning was not
very active. though there were good Of
ferings. The demand was light and
confined to buyers filing orders. New
York was dull and weak; for spot cot
tons, middling, l63c. Liverpool was
quoted fat, with middling uplands at
85d. New Orleans was dull and heavy,
with middling at l6sc. The market
here wac weak and heavy. The advices
from Liverpool and the East had ten
dency to depress the market, and it be-
ing the closing of the week transactions
we're of a limited character. Several
lists changed hands of ordinary at lOlc,
low middling, l5@l5ic, and bright mid
ding at l54@l6c. At the closing of our
report the market was dull aud heavy.

A Tragedy IN Keene.
A MURDER IN THE STREET.

i
A murder occurred in Keene, N. H,
at about IL o'clock on Saturday nigh
last. 1t is reported as the end of {
drunken debauch 1t took place on the
street near the residence of Adams Kings
bury. Two gentlemen passing down
Main street shortly after ii O'Clock
found the body of a man lying on the
sidewalk covered With blood and with a
terrible cash across the throat, but till
alive. He was Immediately moved to
the stables of the Eagle Hotel, and found
to be Allen A. Craig, tanner, in the
employ of Foster and Cox. DR.. witch
ell was speedily summoned, but all efforts
to save his life failed, and he died in less
than half an hour. The other parties
concerned in the affair, and upon whom
suspicion strongly rests, are VIM. A. Nc
Laughlin, the supposed murderer, Dan
lei O'Keefe and Patrick Conner. All of
these are fellow workmen of Craig, and
had been, as far as is known, on most
friendly terms with the deceased,
1t appears that all had been about
town drinking very freely, till they en-
gagged in quarrel, when some of them
separated, and soon after this Craig was
found as above described, and near by
him lay Mclaughlin, apparently stupid
with liquor, and with large butcher
knife laying under him. He suddenly
recovered his consciousness a few mo-
ments later, and on being shown the
knife said it was his, but denied all
knowledge of Craig's death. On his
way to Jail, his remarked several times,
q" Can it be that l killed Craig?" The
knife is an ugly-looking weapon, Nc
Laughlin having had it sharpened the
day before the murder, and can give no
reason for having such dangerous wea-
pom with him. The general impression
is that Mclaughlin, maddened with Ii
quor, either with or without provocation,
struck Craig the fatal blow or blows.
Craig is an old resident of Keene, 90
years Of age, and leaves wife and seven
children. Mclaughlin is 80, has wife
and one child, and came to Keene four
months ago from Grafton, Mass. and
has followed the seas for several years.
Having got over his debauch, he seems
to realize his terrible condition, and has
expressed wish that he he could ex.
change places with Craig.
AT the continuation of the inquest on
Monday afternoon, no new facts we're
brought out. The post norton left no
doubt of the cause of Craig's death, and
also established the fact that the wounds
were not necessarily fatal had medical
assistance been promptly called.
The verdict of the inquest on Tuesday
was, that Craig came to his death at the
hands of Mr.. Laughlin, who was to have
been arraigned before the police court of
that city on Wednesday on charge of
murder.

The Windsor County Boilers.

The boilers of Windsor county, at
their convention at Woodstock, on Sat
urday last, on the whole, acted rather
wisely-that is wisely for boilers. They
only made two changes (of any impor-
tance,) from the regular republican tick
et These changes were Alvin Wood of
Barnard for Senator in place of j. j.
Wilson of Bethel, VIM. r. Hewitt of
Woodstock for sheriff, in place of Surry
w. Stimson of Ludlow. Zanas Sanders of
West Windsor was also nominated for
high bailiff in place of Rollin Amsden
of Windsor. This last change we can.
not suppose was regarded of any impor-
lance, if it was the regular candidate
would no doubt be willing to withdraw
for any good or peace that might be
made in that direction. We are aware
of no charges or fault against Mr.. Slim
son for Sheriff who we believe has been
faithful officer, and as such, and there
being no charge of unfairness or irregu-
larsty in his nomination, he is entitled
to the cordial support of all republican
sreemen. The contest therefore will be
mainly between Wilson and Wood for
the Senate.
A Woodstock friend, who sends Us
theproceedings, and who has onr cordial
thanks therefor, says: "The convention
was one of the largest ever held in thi:
county, being fully equal in that respect
to the one held in June last. Its action
was quite harmonious"
The convention unanimously adopted
the following resolutions:
Whereas, the laboring and producing
classes of this county have reason to be.
lieve and do believe that they have moi
been treated with due consideration in
the nomination of county officers, and
by not being properly represented in
the legislature of this state; and
Whereas, taxation without proper rep.
resentation is principle abhorreut to
every American citizen ; and
Whereas, objectional candidates have
been thrust upon the people by corrupt
political rings manipulated in secret
conclave;
Therefore, be it resolved that we here.
by pledge our earnest efforts to put down
political rings and all corruption used by
scheming politicians, and that we will
strive to preserve the purity of the bal
lot-box.

AN ATTEMPTED ELoPEMENT.-Ch
dren are generally credited with origin.
atty, but it is seldom that they attem pit
an elopement, and the adventures of a
boy and girl, each about FIVE years Of
age, living in the southern part of the
city, are now furnishing considerable
amusement for those who have heard the
story. Thursday afternoon the little boy,
with poorly developed ideas of the cost
of travelling, asked his father for six
cents stating that he wished to set him
self up in the newspaper business. The
request was not complied with, and the
boy visited his fathers place of business
and was given a few cents by those EN-.
ployed at the same establishment. He
then went to his home and donning his
best clothes, quietly left the house.
Meanwhile the girl, who is the constant
companion of the boy, visited her home
in the absence of her mother, and don.
ned her best clothes, not forgetting to
place several articles of clothing in
carpet bag which she had by some means
secured. Thus equipped the young cou-
pie proceeded hand 10 hand to the de.
pot, and like old travellers got upon the
cars, asking questions of no one and
keeping their own counsel as to where
they were going. But their carefully
laid plans were soon frustrated by a
cruel railroad official, who, devoid of
all sentiment and with a desire to per.
form his duties without fear or favor.
put them off the cars and sent them
home. Disconsolate and discouraged.
the. youthful couple carried their CARPET
bag to the building in which the bows
father is engaged and deposited it in the
entry leading to his Office. They then
returned to their homes disappointed
and unhappy, but said nothing of their
attempted elopement. On Friday. how.
ever, the story leaked out, and created
considerable amusement among the pa.
rents and friends of the children Where
they were going or what they intended
to do they are unable to tell, their only
desire being to escape from the control
of their lawful guardians and together
fight e battle of life free from all re-
stFietions.- Worcester Spy.

SESAToRWADLEIGH.-Mary Clemmer
Ames furnishes the Independent with
the following pen portrait of the New
Hampshire junior Senator.
Now Mr.. Sumner is gone, perhaps the
most distinguished looking man on the
floor of the Senate is the new Senator
from New Hampshire, Mr.. Wadleigh.
He is forty-three years of age, of large
frame and impressive presence. He has
jet-black hair, black eyes, clear-cut,
strong features, which reflect refinement
and fine culture as we'll as power. He
is one of the rare men in the Senate
whose election was not insured BY cent
of money from himself or his constitu.
ents. He was chosen without his knowl.
edge, because he was a fit man for high
place, and elected without help, for the
same reason. He is a lawyer, and be
cause be brings with him into the Sen
ate learning, eloquence, honor and strong
sense, much is expected of him in this
day of small things.

Mr.. DenisOn Declines.

Mr.. Denison declines to be candi.
date for Congress of the boilers. 1t is
30 announced last week in the st. Johns
bury Farmer and Randolph Herald both
anti-Poland, previous to the convention
at White River Junction. The Herald
now supports Poland. This is as was
generally supposed it would be in rela-
tion to Mr.. Denison, whose friends re-
ceived the first report that he was will
ing to run as boilers candidate, with
surprise. There was no action in the
convention of which the anti Poland
men make any complaint. If the con-
vention was not fair then it would be i'm
possible to hold fair convention, In
fact the proceedings were marked
throughout with unusual regularity and
fairness, and much in contrast with the
turbul lance of two years ago. Those
who bolt from convention or its nomi.
nations almost invariably do 50 for some
cause in the manner of the proceedings,
as otherwise honorable and fair minded
men would not enter and participate in
the proceedings of body in which they
have predetermined not to abide the re-
sult
