HARTFORD, Jan. II.
A. S. Adams, one of the seriously in
jured at Tariffville, died to-day. The
number of dead is thirteen, wounded
forty-six, some severely but most only
slightly.
No bodies were discovered in the
wreck to-day and no inquiries have
been made for people missing. 1t is
thought that inquiries would be made
if any were still in the wreck, as the
passengers were generally parties from
different towns, and all were in COM
pany with friends or acquaintances.

Vice Presidency and Is using his position for
the making Of political capital and the at
tainment OF his personal ends. His advice to
the Southern delegates is to proclaim that
while this IL a "solid South" and the South
ern people propose to stand together, the
South Is not fighting for place or power, but
for the success OF the National Democratic
party. BY reason of her electoral strength
the South has right to demand the second
place on the ticket, but she prefers that both
the President and Vice President should come
from the North and West. Gov. Hampton's
views, we believe, are those Of a large major
ity Of the Southern people, and we have no
doubt of his perfect sineerity" In giving the
advice he has volunteered SO far In advance.

While the Democrats have gained three
Congressplen in Ohio, they have sustained q
great loss in the defeat of Hon. Milton sayler.
The Republican Campaign Committee, under
&he leadership OF Hale never left stone IN
turned in order to accomplish this result,
money being spent like water and band OF
hired ruffians and ballot-box proficients being
sent all the way from Philadelphia for that
purpose. The South had no better or truer
friend in the last Congress than MI. sayler'
and the bitter and concentrated opposition GO
him was doubtless due to this fact, and TO MS
nronounced views in regard to the internal
Improvement OF the Mississippi valley and
of the general advancement OF Western and
Southern interests. Mr.. Sayier, had ne been
elected, would have been perhaps the most
psominent candidate for the spea&ershlp' lals
defeat is greatly to be regretted, more espe'
ssialIy by this section.

The investigation into the charges made
AGAINST; Administrator Mccartney has not
banned out very cheerfully for the Admins
traitor. The evidence thus far elected proves
beyond question that it has been customary
under Mr.. McCaffrey's administration, to use
kitchen garbage, dead animals and other de-
seription of filth mixed with the street
sweeping, to fill up thickly populated streets OF
the city. It is no mitigation OF the otfense that
preceding administrators have permitted or
committed it, even if that be true, which we
very much doubt It only proves that we
need a new order of things in that depart
ment, and that the Democratic parish con-
vention should nominate for Administrator OF
improvements vigilant, energetic and con-
scientious citizen, who will see that such
outrages upon humanity and civilization are
nut an end to.

A MOnklsh Legend.

The monks Of a certain monastery
wished TO ornament the gate OF their
church. One of their number, who was
sacristan, and who understood sculpture,
placed on it a beautiful image of the
Virgin. 1t was very common in those days
to have near the entrance representa-
ton of the Last Judgment. Among those
on the left side was a Satan, armed with
an iron hook, and SO hideous that no one
could look upon him without horror. The
original, offended at the liberties which
had been taken with his figure, came one
day to inquire Of the artist why he had
made him so ugly. The sacristan plainly
told him it was done from personal dislike,
and for the avowed purpose of making him
hateful. This did not mend matters, and
the artist was threatened with vengeance
if he did not change the figure in the
course Of the day. Next morning when
the Devil came to look at the alterations
he found the sacristan mounted on the
scaffold, and employed in adding new
horrors to the representation. "Since you
are determined that We shall be foes," ex-
claimed the irritated demon, "let US see
how you can leap" At the same time he
oyerthrev the seafolding. But the
sacristan had no sooner called the Virgin
10 his succor than her image stretched out
its arms TO uphold him, and, after sus-
pendlag him for some time in the air, to
give the beboIders time to admire this
beautiful miracle, she placed him gently
on the ground, to the infinite disgust OF
