Large Wooden Mill Failure,

BosToS. Feb. 3.-The announcement of the
failure of D. Fl. Sayles, Danville, and s. L.
and T. d. Sayles, Versailles Conn.,, created
sensation among the wool merchants of this
city. These concerns, in reality one, have
been in existence twenty-five years, and were
the largest individual manufacturers of wooden
goods in the country. The mills at Mechanics
vile we're the finest in the State, and run if
teen to sixteen sets of machinery. The mills
at Danville contained ten or twelve sets,
and those at Versailles fifteen sets,
making an aggregate of about forty set of ma
chinery which were employed exclusively in
the manufacture of cashmere The product of
the three mills amounted to one and one
half or two 0lillions of dollars in value per
mum, and these goods were consigned to the
house of Law, Hartman & Co., New York. The
capital invested in mill property is esti-
mated at between $75, 600 and 81 900, 600
the entire village of Mechan;csville being
owned by the firm of n. G. & T. D. Sayles.
The failure falls heavily upon the wool mer-
chants of this city, who were creditors of the
two firms to the extent of $3.50, 600 or $400, 600.
The suspended firms were the largest purchas-
ers of wool who came into this market, and
scarcely single house has escaped the blow.
1t is estimated that three-fourths of the loss by
this failure will fall upon Boston merchants,
although it isl imp possible to state the extent
of the liabilities. The failure is attributed to
a depreciation in the value of wooden goods
and inability of the concern to obtain assist
ance from local banking houses upon which
they have formerly relied.

DOWN AMONG THE DEAD MEN.
Experiences of a Nan Locked In Fault
nth Half Dozen Corpses.
TTolodn RIade

Experiences of Man Locked In Vaalt
10Th Half a Dozen Corpses.
Toledo Blade
!, Not long ago the widow of gentleman
who had recently died desired the vault
wherein the remains had been temporarily
placed to be watched, so that body snatchers
could have no opportunity to ply their ne
farious calling. Thinking that the vault
would be watched better by the sexton than
any one else, Mr.. Iadbone was hired to keep
a sharp lookout. AT dark he took lantern
and blanket and made up bed in front Of
tho vault, so that any one approaching it
would have to step over his body. But after
lying there sometime it grew quite cold, and
he thought he could watch the corpse Just as
well if hetwere inside the vault, out of the
cold. So he unlocked the vault and went in,
but found that he could not lock the vault
from the inside. That would never do, and
yet he Was determined not to stay outside. .
Finally he went back to the house and
reused 5 his hired man and the two
went back to the vault. Mr.. b. then took
his lantern apd blanket and went inside,
made = bed on the foor, and laid down f5r
the night, having for companions to while
away the tedious hours six corpses. The at.
tendant locked the door from the outside
and went back to the house and his warm
bed, leaving the sexton alone in the vault
with his silent companions 9''<" 49,. r
n9There, was nothing to, disturb his tram.
guilty during the early part Of the night.
Every thing was quiet and still until about
O'Clock land then there was q gentle noise,
as though some one were tannpering with
the vault lock. Mr.. r. took up bis lantern,
and the noise stopped forasfev moments,
only to begin again when he laid down on
his blanket. This time it appeared to be
in IN. sopposite corner Of the vault.

He could see nothing and could
only hear that steady scratch, scratch, which
became more and more distinct every in
slant. Mr.. r. is q brave man, but he con-
fesses that when locked in vault with six
dead men, with no living soul within half
mile, and ct that early hour to have such an
unexplainable noise as that, it was more
than men with ordinary nerves can stand.
At any rate, his hair began to raise, and just
as he was thinking of the. best way to de-
fend himself against his spiritual foes, lit
tie chip-munk dashed from q dark corner.
ran past him and darted out between the
bars in the vault door. From that time on
nothing occurred to mar his quiet watch, but
in the morning he was rather glad to be re-
leased from his dull quarters.

There is no nation in Europe so ad
vanced in its methods Of teaching agri-
culture as Italy, and in no nation is so
much enthusiasm manifested and so
much practical good accomplished. italy
possesses atsthe present time two high
schools of agriculture-one at Milan, an
another at Portici; three special schools
"a school of forestry at Vallambaoso,
school of horticulture at Naples, and
school of viniculture at Conegliapo; two
veterinary schools, at Milan and Naples;
and 81 secondary schools, varying in I'M
portance and organization, but which
may be compared broadly to the French
agricultural colleges of Grgon and Mont
pellier. These. establishments are large
~ subsidized, either by the state or by
the prsvince where they arr situated.-

way robbery was perpetrated near this village
Saturday night. Mr.. Alonzo Aldrich, an old
resident of the county, living some two miles
out of the village, had been in during the af
ternoon making some purchases. Mr.. Aldrich
accompanied by man and boy, whose
name your correspondent did not learn,

ing. When about half mile from his
house, and when passing through piece of
timber, the team was stopped by two men, who
sprang from pile of brush just in the edge of
the timber. As the team came to a halt one of
the men, pointing his pistol at the occupants
of the wagon, gave the stereotyped highway
addition, land sit quiet 1t is hardly neces-
sary to say the order was complied with, where
upon the other robber, till then standing at the
horses heads, jumped into the wagon and sys-
tematically went through the various pockets
of the three victims, getting some Ss from MIR:
nothing from the boy. The robbers confined
their search exclusively to money. nothing else
having been taken. Having satisfied himself
that he had got all the monev, the robber in
the wagon jumped ont. and telling Mr.. Aldrich
to drive on, both the robbers disappeared in
the identity of the robbers, and SO far no clue
has been obtained on this point.
