HAIR WHITENED IN A NIGHT.-Father Deckner visited Ike Hooper, the condemned murderer, early yesterday morning and in- formed him of the refusal of Governor Smith to grant executive clemency. Hoop CT was at first much agitated and trembled like leaf shaken by the wind, but soon became more composed, and during the day seemed to have become more reconciled to his fate. A remarkable fact in connection with the oft told story that mems hair some. times turns gray in single night. When Hooper was sentenced by Judge Pottle last month his hair was perfectly black. The morning after the sentence was imposed Mir. Bridges, keeper of the jail, noticed on entering the condemned mans cell that a portion of his head was perfectly white. He immediately asked him where he had obtained flour to put on his head. Hooper was surprised and said he knew nothing about it. MT. Bridges then went up to him and discovered that large portion of his hair immediately on the crown of his head had changed from deep black to snowy white during the night. The agony of g few hours had dsne what years generally accomplish. .-Augustd (GG.) Chronicle.

 The hot, sultry weather of the past few days admonishes us that winter clothes are superhuous, and that spring may concen- trate the amount of heat, usually sprinkled over three months, into few days, if so we may expect to sec vegetation about as forward the first of June, as in the average of former seasons. These are lively times among the farmers just now whose cus- tomary spring work has been necessarily so delayed on account of the unpropitious weather, that they are obliged to work like beavers to make up for lost tune MT. I. N. Bartram, hear, has taken the contract The building is to be a large and commodi- ous one, constructed of brick, and in every way in keeping with the thrift and enter prise of the place, and judging from the wide experience and characteristic energy of the contractor, the work will be prose. cuted vigorously and to the entire satisfac- tion of our New Milford neighbors.

* Now called Monument Mountain. f Now called Green River.

ES A school teacher in Mississippi used his facility in short hand to make verbs- tim report of negro clergyman's prayer, and he sends it to the Educational Monthly as follows: 70 Lord God of dis glorious universe, wilt dou look down in de omni- presence of dy eye upon desc dy collard children bowed upon the knuckle-bone dis night. Take solemn peep upon us and let heap O light in. Dou knowest what desc dy poor darkies need. On every side dou knowst, O Lord, is de evidence of de dislocation and destruction of the human family. Dere be fighting among one anoth- CT and natural disease But we die to live again either as saints or evil spirits. Dere be3 discushions on doctrines, elecshion, be- fore ordination, perfection and sich like, confuse the intellects of both black and white men. But good Lord, don knowcst dat desc are vain allusions. splittin' and di- vidin' dy creatures into sexes without mer- cy. Whoever will, can go to glory. Many dere will be with slick countenance, white collars and fine clothes, who will find the gates shut against them, while do blind old woman she go straight. Amen"

The TiltOn-Beecher Trial.

Harper's Weekly of this week gives in a four page supplement, an unbiased resume of the charges and evidence against the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher in the great tri- al closing with the following comments, which are it's conclusions in regard to the matter:
 Thus far we have endeavored simply to tell the story of the case without interject- ing into the narrative our own person al sympathies, prejudices or judgment. Those sympathies are nevertheless very strong, that judgment is very clear. Under care full analysis the evidence against MT. Beech CT utterly fails. It would not suffice against man much less strongly intrenched in public esteem than he: against his pure life and noble character it breaks in vain, as the foam of the angry ocean against the | cliff which it can obscure but can not de stroy. The case is one of conspiracy against a great, though careless man, but 6 conspiracy which grew rather than was formed, which was the natural product Oi the jealousy of self-conceit rather than the deliberate contrivance of greed. On the one side is man the greatness of whose heart and the credulity of whose sympa. tines are at once his genius and his weak ness on the other is a man whose insane jealousy is the natural though deadly fruit of an insane self-conceit, imbittered by a spirit of personal and fell revenge. He is aided unconsciously by the idolatrous af- lection and the too implicit obedience of g weak. morbid and suffering wife, and by the sbrewd devices of s ''heathen" friend.
 "The key to the comprehension of this whole case is MT. Titon's frank declara tion, "I resolve to smite Mir. Beecher tO the heart" The arrow was we'll fashioned, the bow we'll bent, but the destroyer has failed of his purpose; and when posterity, wiser than we, reads the history Of this case, it will honor, not less than the noble achievements of Henry Ward Beecher's noble life, the no less noble failure of the patience and magnapimity of his only too chivalric and unhappilyRunsuccessful en- deavor to shield ''ali the other hearts that would ache" from the publication of the famous Brooklyn scandal"

 The New Haven Palladium says: In excavating for the cellar of Judson Broth son Brothers packing house on Winches- ter avenue by Messrs. Smith & Sperry, there was found boulder of immense size, differing from any kind of trap rock found in this vicinity, it being much harder. This boulder was 14 feet ;n diameter, and almost perfect globe, it's surface being as smooth as though It had been polished. It must have been washed here from great dis tance. It was lodged upon the sandstone strata, and it was the only rock or stone of any kind found in the cellar, it being im- bedded in clear builders sard. It was found impossible to remove it in any oiher way than by blasting, and week has been con- sumed in this work, the pieces taken from it being used in the cellar walls.

Sheffield.

Sheffield.
 The spelling match which took place last Friday evening between fifteen of our High school pupils and an equal number of ladies and gentlemen from the town crea- ted quite an interest here. Dictionaries that had long been dust covered were brought to light and studied diligently by many who wished to be posted for the oc- casion. The hall was we'll filled, and the receipts at the door were $25; these funds 'are to be appropriated for the use of the F. U. library. The contest in spelling was long and difficult. and resulted in victory to the High school, as four of the pupils could not be spelled down. These young ladies were the Misses Train, Hess, Decker and Kellogg, and we think MT. Hall may justly feel proud of this spelling class. s.... One of the enterprising farmers of Western Sheffield has an excellent receipt for ma king corn beer which he wished to make known for the benefit of the public, there fore he presented it to the agent at the de- pot instead of the regular milk ticket which he was accustomed to present, and drove home unconscious of his mistake. Now 1t is useless for this farmer to try to teach the village people how to make corn beer, for as long as the present free rum privi- leges exist here, no one cares for small beer. The beneficial effect of the license was seen the other day when two of the citizens went reeling through our public streets. JOHN.

rods to the house of E. D. Davis. The ball struck rib and passed through his stom- ach, and the doctors reported no hopes of his recovery Sunday evening. Word being sent to the town, the nightwatch and other officers were informed of the circumstan- ces, and their success in securing the speedy arrest of the whole party speaks we'll for their activity and intelligence. Hatch and Clark drove to Fuller's, who could give them no clew, except that the party drove gray horse. Hatch then vis- ited all the livery stables, but found that no gray horse had been out that night. Think ing from the description that the horse might belong to Robbins & Gamwell, he went to Robbins barn on Church street, and there found the horse, apparently just in from hard drive. Gum & Barry then went for Van Deusen, the usual driver of the horse, finding him at Gierson's on Ju- bilee Hill. Hatch found Corners at Bel Air. Mack was arrested at Pomeroy's fac. tory, and all were put in the lookup. Van OCuSCA oNhlIICu LO tuC tudb uC ouOl Dowley, but only because Dowley threw stones at him. A large stone was found in the wagon, but Corners says there was nc provocation. All are Pittsfield young men. Dowley came originally from Beckett, and has wife; Van Deusen is unmarried, and two years ago came from Ashley Falls, where his father is respect ble, ,well-to-do farmer. All were more or less under the influence of liquor.
 [We have ascertained that the Henry Van Deusen alluded to in the above ac- count of the Pittsfield murder, is son ot MT. James Van Deusen, one of the most worthy and respected citizens of Ashley Falls. Mir. Van Deusen will have the heartfelt sympathy of his neighbors and friends in that vicinity, in the deep distress in which the terrible crime his waywar6 son has committed has plunged him. ED NEWS.
