Plymouth sketches--No. 23o.


 A number of years since NIT. and Mrs. Henry Miner lost, by death, two children their all. Last year, another child was born unto them. A few days ago this also died. Thus the parents are again left childless. Other parents, especially those who have lost all the children they pos sessed. will not fail to sympAthize with these bereaved ones in their great afflc- tion. @ s&E -+~
 A few days since Lyman D. Baldwin, while at work in his saw-mill, accident ally got one of his feet in front of the saw, which, without a moments hesitation, penetrated his boot counter and some dis tance into his heel It became necessary to make additional cuttings in the boot before the injured foot could be safely re- leased. s.....
 At the. Center, on Tuesday, the 7th ult. |, a meeting of Congregational clergymen took place at the parsonage, where they were handsomely entertained by tue pas tor. Rev. K. E. Hillard. who it is said provided for the occasion turkey. which, whenidecapitated and rendered. sfeetless, weighed 19a pounds. In the evning a service was held in the church, where the Rev. Mir. Churchill of Woodbury deliver ed very interesting sermon on the 29th verse of the 11th chapter of Matthew. Some of his illustrations in regard to the yoke were very fine. In the preachers youthful days I think he must have been a farmer boy" No doubt he could tell much more than he did in regard to "What I know about" breaking steers ,

layed a few days in attempting 10 inter

Ny last information from Red Cloud
agency was that 800 Cheyennes had left
there to reinforce the enemy in my front.
Asthis takes away all bad elements from
that section, / have awaited myself OF
the Lieutenant Generals permission
and ordered eight companies of the 9Th
cavalry under Col. Merritt to join me
at this point. The best information L
can get from the front is that the Sioux
have three fighting men to my one. Al
though l have no doubt Of my ability to
whip them with my present force, h
victory would likely be one barren OF
results, and 50 l have thought better to
defer an attack until l a get the
Fifth here, and then end the campaign
with one crushing blow. The hostile
Indians are, according to my advices,
encamped on the Little Big Horn, near
the base of the mountains, and VIII
probably remain there until my rein

patch from Gen. Terry this morning,

ure his Pensioners, the young women

Rdil,roy SMASH Up.
An accident occurred on the Bath &
Coney Island railroad last evening, by
which three persons were injured. A
careless switchman left his switch open
and the train for the city ran into a
down train at C0wenhaven Lane. Miss
Kate Wise, of Wheeling, Va, had a
leg broken by jumping from the train,
and was removed to a hospital. The
others were not severely injured and
left for their homes.
Iflden and Hendricks Quarrel.
A special fromySaratoga to the Com
mercial Advertiser says:
1t has leaked out that there is an ir-
reconcilalbe difference between Tilden
and Hendricks and hence the non
appearance of Tilden's letter of accept
ance. 1t is very evident from the
hurried ann in which Tilden and
Hendricks left Saratoga that the meet
ing was not a harmonious one, and that
there are wide differences between
them on the currency question, which
may oblige Hendricks to repudiate
Tilden or peacefully withdraw from the
ticket.
The Fast Nail Suspension.
The news Of the probable suspension
of fast mail service from and after the
I'D, did not create surprise at the post
Office in this city, as such determination
on the part Of the railroad companies
