Meadow massacre and in his death,
perhaps, the wickedest man in Ameri-

Mormonism seems easy to predict. lie
leaves a son who has been dedicated
to succeed him. There is also a son
of Smith, the founder, who may lay
claim to the succession, and thus pro-
duce internal discord. 1t seems very
probable that no one will arise equal
to the emergency of carrying this peo-
pie, who do violence both to the
written law of God, and the higher
unwritten instincts of human nature,
through the force of public sentiment
which is rapidly pushing them to the
wall. May the day hasten when the
fair valley of Salt Lake shall no longer
be a blotch on the face of this civilized
nation.

EASTERN WAR.

For some time we have neglected to
give much war news, as the reports
have been so meagre, and many of
them so unreliable, that we were not
able ourself to make out much in re-
gard to the progress of the war. Dur
ing the past week, however, it seems
that the Turks have been gaining some
very decided successes, and are driv-
ing the Russians back toward the
Danube. The field of contest, so far,
aside from the campaign in Asia Mi
nor, has been confined mostly to the
plains lying between the Danube and
the Balkan mountains. Those who
wondered that the Turks permitted
the Russians to cross the Danube with
SO little opposition, can now surmise
that it was for the purpose of waging
the contest where they would be near
est their supplies, familiar with their
ground, and in case of rout have easy
access to the Businesses of the noun
tains. For while fortune seemed to
favor the Russians. They occupied
considerable territory, including one
or two passes through the mountains,
and we have been expecting that ere
long they would make "Sherman's
march" to Constantinople, but you
cannot always tell which dog in the
fight will win, the under or the upper
one. Within the week the Turks
have driven the Russians from strong
positions on the Dom, and, though
they have been unable to drive theil
foe from the Skipka Pass, it is author.
itatively stated that they have SO be.
leagured it as to render its capture
probable. In short, the Bears paws
are getting badly burned, and the ul
innate issue of the Eastern troubl,
seems more doubtful than ever be
fore. All Europe may yet be engag
ed in the melee, and darker page o
history chronicled than has ever We
been written in the annals of tn
world.

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY AT CON-
NECTIcUT STATE PRISON.

A horrible tragedy occurred at Weth-
ersfield States Prison about midnight
Saturday. The facts given are mainly
based on the ante-mortem statement
of Shipman, which are verified by pris-
oners confined in cells opening on the
corridor of the third tier, where Ship
man received the fatal shot. Accord
ing to the regulations the convicts
were locked in their cells about dusk
and when the guard passed Hamlin's
cell he was there and nothing unusual
was noticed. The guard being safely
out of the way, Hamlin hastily con-
structed dummy with shirt and
some straw from mattress, and, place
ing it in a natural position in his bed,
opened the door with false key. From
the corridor Hamlin made his way to
the top of the main section of cells,
where he secreted himself. At s o.
clock the guards made their final round
placing the spring bars on the cell doors
and counting the prisoners. Deceived
by Hamlin's dummy they reported all
correct. Atmidnight Hamlin decend-
ed to the cell of confederate named
William Allen, and released him with
false key. On their way to release
third convict, they encountered the
night Waterman, and crept upon him
noislessly in their stocking feet. His
quick ear detected them, however, and
he hastily fired two shots from his re-
volver. Strange to say these shots
were not heard in the guard-room adj
joining the main prison. In an in
slant the convicts sprang upon and
bore him to the ground, first gagged
him with Il piece of broom handle,
then tied his feet and finally secured
his hands with q pair of fine, new
handouts, struggled into Hamlin's
possession in way the officials can
not explain. Having Shipman help
less on his back and taking his revol-
yer, they started for the garnet, but
their victim, succeeded in rubbing the
gag-strap loose, and making an out
cry, they returned and threatened to
cnt his throat He promisod eilonoo /,
and they made fresh start for liber-
ty, but Shipman renewed his outcrles'
Hamlin returned and placing the weap-
on to Shipman's breast fired the ball,
penetrating his right breast above the
heart, the weapon being held so close
that the flame burned his clothing.
BY this time the guard had been
aroused, and came rushing in with
their rifles, and saw Iamlin bending
over his victim. When he rose to run,
two shots, both ineffective, were fired,
Hamlin complimenting the last marks
man with q return shot from the re-
volver. Both convicts then fed to
the top of the cells, knocked a hole
with an iron bar through the plastered
ceiling, and assembled into the garnet,
which was as dark as Erebus. APP
preciating the danger Of following
them the keepers merely covered the
points of exit. In the morning they
surrendered and the officials getting
the story from the dying man they had
shot, coroner's jury rendered a YER
dict fully duplicating Hamlin as the
murderer and Allen as the accessory
to it.

( ENGLE's PEACH ORCHARD,
( n n MI - on - :


Mr.. EDITOR,
Dear Bro. 1T is rather novel
sensation TO Vermonter to find him
self behind a pair of horses meander-
ing through a peach orchard Of forty
five acres, and lodging with more or
less skill the branches ladened with
their tempting red-cheeked and sal
mon-tinted burden.
But this was not the climax either
of novelty or enjoyment. That came
later, when we left the horses under
the shade, and joined the merry com
pany of frlit-packers under a rude
booth, one side Of which was walled
by empty boxes, strange to say made
by woman, whose callOuscd hand we
saw displayed with no little pride YER
liable proof of the work it had done.
OF the many boxes used she had made
twenty eight hundred, a days work
sometimes reaching one hundred and
forty boxes. Near by were the boxes
filled with carefully assorted peaches
ready for shipping, each box contain
ing one-third of a bushel, and bring
ing at the present time in the Detroit
market, S1.15.
1t requires skill and experience TO
detect the color which indicates the
right state for pacltinging, and here is
an illustration of the fact that con-
scientious labor pays, in that the uni
form quality of the fruit from this or
chard causes it to bring a higher
price in the market than any other.
We were not slow to except the in
vitation to help ourselves to the deli
cious Crawfords Mountain Rose and We
gave, in our opinion in favorofthejus
tice of the award of the first premium
which this fruit has taken in several
state fairs. 1t has also taken the
premium over all other states in the
country not excepting California.
The owner this year refused SlO,-
900 for his fruit taken on the trees,
There is but one larger orchard in the
state and it contains three thousand
five hundred trees, which is to be in
creased by one thousand trees another
year.
Connected with the peach trees is
a generous supply Of pears, grapes
and ounces, but they are made less &
specially.
You may be interested tohavc some
report of the crops here this season.
One cannot fail to be impressed Will
the contrast between farming here and
in VT. Here the energies are directed
chiefly to raising grain. The wheat
crop is about fair average, but o.
excellent quality and well cured. The
yield Of corn is unusually large and il
is maturing well.

More troops have been ordered to
the western plains and it now looks as
though the last exterminating conflict
with the red men OF the West must
come. There seems to Ge no other
way to render the frontier safe, than
the old method which has been prac-
ticed ever since the frontier line began
its westward move, and King Phillip
and his allies were exterminated by
the New England colonists.

1t is likely that the government will
compensate the railroads for tranpOrt-
ing troops during the late strike.
Therefore we are all of us to help to
spay for transporting troops to protect
the railroads from the strikers. Is it
not too bad that they did not strike
such soulless corporation a little
harder? A fellow somehow feels a
wicked desire to strike at them him
self.

That Mr.. Hayes occupies the office
,of Chief Magistrate upon strictly le-

full man will deny but, without ques-

the title was obtained are thoroughly
and universally understood, to the end
that the like may not occur again.
There is surely nothing unworthy in
this.--Louisville Courier-Journal.

The stomach is affected with loss of

with pain, accompanied with a dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There isgencraily considerable loss

times an attendant. The patient

or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation Of the skin; his
spirits arc low; and although lie is
satisfied that exercise would be bcnc-

summon up fortitudc enough to try
