Killed by Accident.

A shocking and fatal accident occurred
Saturday afternoon in South Burlington,
on the line of the Burlington and Lamoille
railroad, under the following circum-
stances. At about five o'clock Michael
Sullivan, an employee of the road, left the
pit with load of stone, leading his horse,
and had gone distance of some 600 feet
when blast was discharged. A sharp,
triangular stone, weighing about ten
pounds, was hurled from the blast with
immense violence and in its descent it
struck Sullivan's horse in the left eye, dis
lodging it from its socket, and then struck
sullivan on the right thigh. passing the
whole length of the limb So great was
the force of the blow that the bones of the
thigh and leg were completely crushed, and
several deep flesh wounds were produced,
from some of which the bones pr0truded.
MIR. Sullivan was carried to his boarding
place, about half mile distant, and surgi-
cal assistance was at once summoned. He
was found to be in very critical condition
from the great shock, there being but little
hemorrhage. All efforts to prodnce re-
action were fruilless, and the unfortunate
man survived his injuries but six hours.

A Valuable Horse Killed.

Saturday morning the engineer of the
mixed train from Bellows Falls, while
nearing the railroad bridge at the Morris
crossing, in Chester, discovered team
without driver. The tram halted, and
the horse, valued high as trotter. was
found wedged in between the rails, dead.
In bis efforts to extricate himself his head
had been reduced to shapeless mass. 1t
is supposed that the team was in charge Of
young man from Rockingham, who was
returning from masquerade bal in an in
toxcated condition, and while in that be-
fuddled state drove IN the opposite direc-
riou from home and guided his horse down
the railroad until the accident took place,
when he abandoned the team. He came TO
Chester and boarded the train bound north.
Officers we're sent in pursuit of him, and
when caught he will suffer the severest
penalty imposed by law.

of these are throat and lung difficulties.
Our climate is very ehangeabe, and of

should always breathe so. How is it to-

An ex-Confederate for the Speaker

New .YopK, Feb. 81.

NEW OPk, reU. a.
Washington dispatches chronicle the be-
lief that Speaker Kerr's health is too pre-
carious to allow him to continue at his post
through the session. In case he be obliged
again to leave bis post the contest for the
temporary speakership will be between
Randsll and Blackburn, with arguments
strongest in favor of the latter, his having
been confederate being, probably, the
only bar to his succession, and this only
can be urged to elect some other man. A
summing up of the results OF the present
sessions of congress shows that only eight
bills of small importance have become
laws. One bill has been vetoed by the
president, and about 70 bills, mostly pen
sion bills, have passed the house, and 2,l0O
