The cure OF all these diseases, however, from

ycen the third and fourth ribs; and
what perhaps formed the most impor-
tant result Of the inquiry consisted in
the fact tnat the experts were able to
pronounce, from the character of the
wound, that it had been inflicted, in all
probability, during the life OF the indi-
vidual. The surrounding highly suspi-
cious circumstances of the occurrence
undoubtedly favored this latter suppo-
sition, while the clumsy and unscientifc
manner in which the remains were mu-
tilated-the bones being sawn through
near the joints instead of being disartic-
ulated at the joints by the simple divis-
ion of the ligaments-showed that no
theory of the remains having formed the
subject of anatomical research could for
a moment be entertained. The probable
date of death was also in some degree
fixed; the examiners being led, from the
appearance OF the remains, to state with
certainty that they had been dead for
at least three weeks before the date of
the examination, which was conducted
on the twenty-first of October, 1857.
Thus the medical evidence elucidated
number OF facts which, taken together,
afforded a useful commentary and test
of the value OF other and purely circum-
stantial evidence. The articles of dress
which were enclosed in the bag along
with the remains were Of foreign make
and were cut and torn in numerous
places. No definite clue was ever OBJ
tained which could lead to the detection
of the murderer or of the motives which
prompted the crime. The remains were
thought to be those of Swedish sailor,
whose disappearance might cause little
or no stir even among his associates;
while the mere fact Of his disappearance
in a foreign land would alss initiate
against the chances Of his identity being
established. A supposition which re-

The Attempted Assassination Of Mrs
Dewey.

New developments are gradually arising
out of the attempted assassination of Mrs.
Clara N. Dewey of st. Albans, before day
break Wednesday morning. Thursday
there was q thorough search made to en-
deavor to ferret out the guilty parties, and
1t was asserted Thursday that the horse has
been found with half shoe on one foot
which exactly fits the cast of the foot
prints taken yesterday. There have also
been found parties who saw team drive
up Main street with a bay horse in it, and
the vehicle occupied by two men. These
men have the reputation of being bad char
acters. The net is gradually closing which
will show up this affair in its true light be-
fore long. 1t is believed by large por-
ton of the community that it is put up
Job to endeavor to intimidate Mrs. Dewey,
which in the end will have the effect to
cause her to abandon her defense of The

amount of money paid her as "hush

The Soldiers Headstone Contract.

NEW YORK, Aug 4.
A Washington dispatch ssys General
Banning will present to-day a unanimous
report from the military committee on the
hesds.one contract. The committee find
that ex.Secretaty Belknap uslrpcl control
of the contract, taking it away from the
quartermaster-g general, and he did not give
1t to the lowest bidder. The evidence
-hows that Belknap retained the bids for
two months and half before he made The
Award, which he divided among four sets
of bidders, who were not on anequaliy
in prices, and that three Of the four were
bought out by Bridges, to whom he a.
lowed more money, cons, qlently, than to
the lowest bidders. Notifications were
subsequently, made in the terms of the con-
tract favorable to Bridges. The commit
tee arrived at the following conclusions
That the award vas in disregard of official
duty and prejudicial to the interest of the
government; that the alterations in the
terms Of the contract were an abuse of off
cial power on the part Of the secretary of
var, and, finally, that as the contract is
now in the hands of honest persons for
completion, under the transfer made at the
INSTANCE of the qlartermlstcr general, the
committee do not deem it necessary to Of
fer any resolutions for the consideration Of
the house, either in regard to tie eX.secre-
tary of war or the annulment of the con-
tract

Railroad Litigation.

The First National bank of North Ben
nington, ha, again sued the town of Ben
nington, this time in the United States
circuit court, to be holden at Rutland, Oc-
tober 3. The suit is for the unpaid interest
on the town bond, issued in aid of the
building of the Harlem Extension railroad
in 1867, and which the town has steadily
refused to pay. The principal point of
defence is that the bonds were fraudulently
issued, and that Hon. r. w. Park, as a
party to that fraud, cannot enforce payment
against the town. In the county court an
injunction was granted the town against
Mr.. Park to prevent bin from suing the
bonds or diSposing of them to other par
ties. AT the last term, however, this in
junction was so far removed as to allow of
his bringing suit on those coupons on which
the statute of limitations had nearly run.
Several other towns in the county are in
the same dilemma as Bennington is.

understand it, no objection was made to
the employment Of the young ladies on
sectarian grounds but, on the contrary,
the suggestion was made by the president
of the board, himself Protestant clergy

teachers be supplied BY persons selected by
Catholics-and this suggestion, we are in
formed, was acquiesced in by the entire
board. Ed. OF GLOBE

A Supposed Lost Woman.

The people of Essex Centre had quite a
scare on Sunday morning last, when it was
reported that woman was lost on the
plains. 1t seems that Mrs. Fosters mother
woman about ninety years of age but
quite smart for that age, went berryiug on
the plains Saturday forenoon. Not com
ing home at night the daughter was
alarmed and rallied the neighbors on Sun
day morning in search of her. A little at-
ter noon she was found quietly picking
berries about mile away from the house
seemingly unconscious of the lapse of
time. Rumors of disagreement in the
household and sundry hard knocks inflict-
ed upon the old lady are ahoat, as the
cause of her disappearance.

much may be accomplished by these
methods, 1t might encourage delusive ex-
pectations If withheld here the express
sion of my conviction that no reform of
civil service In this country will be COM
plete and permanent until its chief msgis-
trate is constitutionally disqualified for re-
election, experience having repeated
ly exposed the futility of self
imposed restrictions by candidates or
incumbents. Through this solemnty Only
can he be ,ffecIuaIly delivered from
his greatest temptation to misuse the
power and patronage with which the
executive is necessarily charged. Educated
in the belief that it is the
first duty of the citizen of the
republic to take bis fair allo,mept of care
and troubls in public affairs, l have for
forty years as private citizen fulfilled
that duty. Though occupied in an un-
usual degree during all lat period with
concerns of government have never
acquired the habit OF official life. When
year and hail ago entered upon my
present trust, IL was in order to corsum-
mate reforms 10 which ] had already de-
voted several of Il G best years Of my life.
Knowing as do, therefore, from fresh cx-
perience, how great the difference is be-
tween gliding through official routine and
working out reform of systems and poll
ces, it is impossible for me to contemplate
what needs to be done ia the federal
administration without an anxious sense of
the difficulties of the undertaking. If sum-
