The intelligence Of the death of Hon. Al
exander S. johnson, United States Circuit
Judge for this Circuit, will be received with
very general sorrow. 1t occurred at the
Island of Nassau. on the 26th of January
last. Judge johnson was an upright and
courteous gentleman, an excellent lawyer.
most conscientious and lsborious judge.
He died. as his lamented predecessor. Judge
Woodruff, did, in the vain attempt to &C
complish an impossibility and to discharge
the duties of an Office which requires three
Judges instead Of one.
lie was appointed Circuit Judge by Pres
ident Grant, in the Autumn of 1875. and i,
after two years and half of almost inces-
SAINT labor, broke down, last Spring, and re-
turned to bis home in Utica, as his friends
all felt, to die. Since then he has steadily
declined, and sailed only last month for
Nassau, as a last hope, IN a condition of
great prostration.
Judge johnson sat for many years and
with much distinction in the Court OF APP
peals of the State of New York and, so far
as we know, never held any other than
judicial Office. Few men addressed them
selves with more earnest industry to the dis
charge of duty. His opinions show the
most elaborate and careful consideration.
and complete mastery of the cases in
which they were pronounced. He was slow
in deciding, because be was very anxious to
be right. and had almost too modest dis
trust OF his own first impressions. As there
was no appeal from his decisions except the
expensive and dilatory resort to the Su-
preme Court of the United States, he felt
that the public had right to expect that
judgments should only be rendered in i'm
portant cases upon the most thorough ex-
animation. and that both suitors and
counsel would acquiesco in any delay found
necessary for that purpose. The great ac
emulation and pressure of business 10 his
court and his declining health have caused
many cases that have been heard before him
to remain undecided; but probably none
remain that have been decided wrong.
Judge Wheeler of this State. has been
for some time sitting in Now York in his
place.

with the contents of each. save some little
clothing and bedding and few pieces of
furniture, were burned on Monday, Feb
ruary 4th, between | and . o'clock in the
morning. Mr.. Stevens was awakened by a
cracking sound, and his wife at the same
moment. lie rushed to the chamber from
which the sounds proceeded and could only
remove some clothing before tho stairs gave
way. A neighbOr saw the fire and hastened to
the scene taking those in his way, but it
was in 20 advanced a stage that little could
be done. Mrs. Steyens's mother lived in a
wing of the house and only saved such
clothing she could put on, going shOeless
to do what she could, losing valuable cloth
ing and bedding The recently filled wood
shed, the milk watts and other DAIRY appur-
tenances, with the contents OF well filled
cellar, were burned leaving the family
houseless, almost without clothing and
without food. but for the ample roof of his
father. But the family and neighborhOOd
are grateful, as will be their many friends,
when they know of the casualty, that kind
Providence prevented any injury to the

BAIcHELDER's PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
he WAVES A HEARING AND is HELD IN
$4,000 BAIL.
MIDDLEBUsY, VT. Feb. 6. 1878
The preliminary examination of j. H..
Batchelder. held here to-day, was attended
by great many people from all parts oil
Addison county, particularly from this
place, Bristol ard Lincoln. At an early
hour this forenoon they commenced to arrive
until noon, and after and long before the
hour appointed for the examination large
crowd had gathered in front of the court
house. AT ll:I5 the prisoner. escorted by
High Bailif E. Gorham, came into court
and took seat with his attorney within
the circle of tables which is reserved for
counsel. lie appeared with his usual cheer
iul countenance, and the charge preferred
against him does not appear to rest very
heavily upon him. lie is somewhat thinner
than he was when last seen upon our streets,
and his confinement has banished that dark.
healthy look from his face which was pro-
duced by good living, excellent digestion
and plenty OF outdoor exercise.
At ll:20 the court was called to order,
and Justice j. E. Stapleton was requested
by Justice l.. E. Knapp to sit with him on
the case, after which. without proceeding
to further business, the court adjourned to
l:3O p. m. Ormsbee Il Briggs and Stewart
y Edridge appeared for the bank; +. b.
Woodbridge, States Attorney for Addison
county, for the State. and Jas. NJ. Sladc
and E. r. Hard for the respondent.
AT the hour appointed the court room
was again crowded, and at Ids the pris-
oner appeared, but not until , :25 was the
court opened. The Press was represented
by Ii. W. Love, for the Boston Globe, A. I.
Stapleton for the New York World, F. f
Smith for the Addison County Journal. 5.
B. Pettingill for Rutland Herald and
Globe, and Barton for the Middlebury
Register, and others.
The general expression of the people is
that Mf. Batchelder may be able to disproye
the charges made against him, and get
clear.
Hon. F. E. Woodbridge opened by saying
that he had heard that req uest would DO
made to waive hearing. lie then pro-
ceeded to read the warrants, which consisted
of; first. an alleged forgery of raising one
$500 note to Sl3,5OO; second, an al
legged forgery for raising one $500 note to
S4,5OO; third, an alleged forgery OF rais-
ing four $500 notes to 81, 500 each, though
he did not claim that the four 81, 500 notes
had been cashed.
Mr. E. r. Hard then in behalf Of his
client, in considering the circumstances.
waived an examination.
The court filed the bail for the first charge
at s. 900, the second at $1,000 and the
third at $4,000, in default of which the
respondent was remanded to Jail.
Undoubtedly bail will be furnished in
day or two, and Mr.. Batohelder will be set
at liberty.

TnE steamship Metropolis. which sailed
from Philadelphia for Para, Brazil, on Jan
nary 10Th, with five hundred tons of iron for
Madeira and Mamore railroad and two hun
dred laborers, stranded Thursday eve
ming last on Currituck beach, three
miles south of Currituck light house, in
North Carolina, twenty miles north of the
Kitty Hawk station. and very near the place
where the United States steamer Huron WAS
recently wrecked, and is a total loss. There
were two hundred and forty-eight or more
persons on board, and OF this number nearly
one hundred persisted.
Captain Ankers of the Metropolis declares
that his ship was perfectly sound and sea
worthy. He describes the gale as one of the
fiercest he ever experienced and says the
ship had an overhanging stern, and the leak
was caused by succession of heavy seas
striking her counter and starting the plank
ing around her rudder post.
