to the West street cemetery, where the

THE WESTON INFANTicIDE.
Arrest of clifford Heseiton--Hs. IL
Committed without Rail--Thc
Tcstimony-Public opinion.

The alleged case of lnfanticide, which
occurred recently at this place, and which
for three weeks past has been the all en-
crossing topic of remark, eliminated, on
Monday, the 22d inst, in the arrest of the
supposed guilty party, Clifford Heselton of
Weston. The examination commenced
the next day, before Justice j. @. A.
Cragin, acting a coroner, who had the
presence and aid of S. D. Spaulding and
G. W. Wiley, Esqrs. throughout the ex-
animation, which was brought to close
Wednesday evening, the gath inst, the
result being the committal OF the respon-
dent, to await the action of the grand jury
of Windsor county.
The principal evidence adduced was that
of the physicians, who recently made a
post norton examination of the body of
the child. Their testimony was that the
head of the child had been punctured by
some sharp instrument the brain showing
an incision downward from the open place
in the skull some two and half inches In
length, which, all concur in stating, was
more than sufficient to cause the death of
the child. How it came there, and that
too, without the knowledge of either of the
parents Of the child, was the all important
question.
There was no testimony tending to show
that the father had ever threatened to dis
pose of any further additions to his fami-
ly,' although rumor had it very current
that he had made such threats.
The place is intensely excited over the
occurrence, and, as might be expected, the
inhabitants are not all of one mind Ia re-
gard to the matter. One side refusing TO
believe it to be possible that the parent and
father, who has always borne, TO say the
least, an average character among his neigh
bors, could be guilty of a crime so heinous
and so unnatural.
The other side are equally confident that
it is utterly impossible to account for the
transaction under all the circumstances,
and not have it almost conclusive, that the
respondent IL guilty Of the terrible crime
alleged.
States.attorney w. II. Walker conducted
the prosecution with his usual fairness and
acknowledged ability. John F. Deane of

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 20.
During Secretary Bristows absence from
Washington, rumors have been circulated
that he intends to resign his position and
enter upon other pursuits, but the most in
innate friends of that gentleman deny the
truth of the rumors. Ex-senator Chand-
ler's name has been named as his successor,
but he recently declared there was no Office
in the government of the president that he
would accept.
Treasurer Spinner said to-day that his
visit to the president yesterday had exclu-
sive reference to business for private par
ties, the particulars of which he freely re-
lated. 1t is inferred from his conversation
that while he is not over anxious to retain
his position, his retirement from it will not
be immediate.
The question will como before the cabi-
net tomorrow as to whether the president
has the power to fill vacancies during re-
cess in cases where the offices become va
cant while congress was in session, but the
nominations to which failed Of consumma-

Death of one of the Projectors Of the
HOOsaC Tunnel.

Henry Chapman, ESQ.,, one of the early
and staunch friends of the project of
tunnelng the Hoosac mountain, well known
in Rutland, his wife being daughter of the
late Robert Temple, died in the hospital at
Northampton, Mass, of which he had been
an inmate for the last ten years. He was
for many years leading citizen and prom
inent lawyer of Greenfield, and for term
of years, clerk of the courts of Franklin
county in that state. In announcing his
death, the Troy Press says: "Mr. Chap
mans name appears as one of the petition
ers in the original act of incorporation
away back in 184S, and his advocacy of
the northern route to the West was earnest
and unceasing indeed, to it can be direct
ly traced his late i'll health, resulting from
gastric fever contracted at North Adams
in 1858, when he was attending meeting
of the Troy and Greenfield railroad COM
pany He was president of this company
in 1854, when the first loan act of $2,000,-
900 was passed. He always retained his
interest in the line, and, when visited by
Colonel Roger II. Leavitt, of Charlemont,
a year or so ago, pleasantly recalled with
him the trials and triumphs of this pet pro-
ject of Northwestern Massachusetts.

Editor Rutland Globe Il noticed in
your last weeks GLOBE one or two articles
on spiritualism, and one was short letter
written by Truthteller In behalf of lady
member of the Methodist church of Fair
haven who wished to have her friends know
what her mind was concerning spiritualism
also what she knows of the wanderings of
those who seek after familiar spirits and
wizards that peep and that mntter. l wish
to say that certain family who belong to
the same church feel that II was written to
injure their feelings, as they employ a
physician who is clairvoyant, and they
are often reminded of his being a believer
in and engaged in this humbuggery, but as
1t happens that this physician Is strongly
opposed to this humbuggery, and has offer
ed a large sum of money to sit in one of the
circles of the Eddy's for the purpose of fer
reting out the affairs that he might expose
them to the world. He wishes to have

The services on Thursday afternoon In
connection with the funeral of our late

of the most impressive character, and one
of the largest demonstrations Rutland has
seen for several years. 1t was rare ex-
preston of the public regard for worthy
and unostentatious citizen. The manifes-

munity. The Rutland fire department was
out in full force, and the masonic fraternity
in large number, and beside these organic
atoms a large concourse of the citizens of
the town, making gathering at the Con-
gregational church, where the services
were held, of full a thousand people.
The services were under the auspices of
Center Lodge No. "a of Free and Accepted
Masons, of which Mr.. Staley was an es-
