Advertisers who want to reach the people A.

There is constant call upon us TO make A ssl.

There is wide difference between the prie,s A
manded by newspapers for an advertisement tok

Experienced and successful advertisers contrsrs q
thel0ngest period: but there are many who an ~
vented from doing this by the nature of their sdys

they wish to try experimenially before making eos
tracts for any extended time
Bearing in mind the wants of advertisers we h,v,
agreements with leading local papers in every Szs

So great is the reduction from regularly month";
rates, that advertisers do not understand how IN

gentleman from Camden. / believe the ma
Jority of this House realize that the people
OF this State within a recent period, have
stood very close to the perilous edge of civil
strife. We have been warned by sore expe-
rience that this State in common with other
States of the Union, is liable to civil disor
ders and strife and violence. And whether
those disorders sprung from the fierce conten-
tons of party warfare OF whether they pro-
coed from other causes, they are always TO he
dreaded, because they disturb the peace of
society and render insecure the lives of our
citizens. and if allowed to run unchecked
must in the end produce a reign of anarchy
Sometimes the civil arm of the government
Is Powerless to cope with the dangers which
oeset, 1t unable to protect the citizen in the
enjoyment Of his rights. At such times "a
these we invoke the trained arm and tho
STEADY nerve OF the militia as the power Of
last resort to arrest lawlessncss, and tn nre-
serve order.
Now, do not propose to Join is.ue With
any member in this House as regards the
precise and critical moment when the nilif;,
should be employed. That is matter which
lies within the sphere Of executive duty and
must rest upon and be governed by his rood
Judgment. Ii is an extraneous matter and

Terrible Accident at Windsor
 Locks.

Two Young Men Fall Into a Vat of
 Acid and are Probably Fatally In-
 jured.
 A shocking accident occurred at Windsor
 Locks Wednesday evening, whereby two young men, George Robinson and William Flynn, will probably lose their lives in conse- quence-if not, they will be terribly disig- ured and rnaimed forever. Flynn, aged 22,
 lives at Warehouse Point, on the other side of the river, and is employed in the silk mill
 there. Robinson, who is three years younger than the other, is the son of ThompsonvilIe | tailor, but is employed at the same establish ment at the Point with his friend Flynn.
 They with others were out on pleasure trip l rowing, and these two, who are both respect ed young men, took it into their heads to go | through the establishment of 0. H. Dexter &
 Sons, paper manufacturers, which is run
 night and day, and in the 'sreclaiming room" l walked directly into vat, the light being dim.
 The vat, or cauldron, is filled with black pot ash and muriatic acid, and is used for de- stroying the bark of the wood employed in | making the pulp for the paper. The acid is so strong that it will destroy most anything of destroyable nature in 8 very few
 minutes. The young men could not have ! been ip this terrible liquid more than five or six minutes when Joseph Duff, workman | in the mill, was drawn to the spot by their cries. They were rescued from the deadly vat in as little time as possible, but not soon
 enough to save their lives probably. The hands of MT. Duff were badly burned from the acid in his labors to get the unfortunates out. The clothes of both were almost burned to nothing by the acid, while their hair and 1 large pieces of skin fell from their bodies,
 making of them sight that WAS sickening to look upon.
 l A physician attended them, and the su fer
 ers were steeped in oil and conveyed to their | home across the river on stretchers. Their | cases are considered hopeless.

Woodburr,s AncIent Par.onaRa.

 Woodbury has an old parsonage, the Stod- dard parsonage, the oldest in the State except the old Whitefeld stone house in Guilford, which wRs built in 164O. The Stoddard par sonage was built in 170O. There was large memorial gathering atthe old house the other night, engineered by ladies. The house is in good state of preservation, and good for another two centuries if let alone. But it has been purchased by Walter s. Curtiss, and he is aboutto remove it and build fine wooden residence, the location being very excellent one. The gathering, therefore, was to say farewell to the old parsonage, and all it's asso- citations. There was large gathering of the people of the old church, and bountiful supply of ancient and modern dishes was provided by the ladies. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Wychof of the North church, after which all engaged in social and reminis- cent converse with great satisfaction. The exercises closed with historical remarks by William Cothren.

IIOyt and the GalIows.

A petition for new trial for Edwin Hoyt, on the ground of newly discovered evidence, was yesterday morning submitted to State Attorney Olmstcad by MT. W. F. Taylor, Hoyt's counsel. The law requires that twelve days notice must be given in getting such 8 petition before the Superior Court, but this period in the present case, would extend be- yond the date appointed for Hoyt's execu- tion. and State Attorney OImstead was there fore asked to waive notice. He refused to do so, on the ground that he very much doubted whether the law gave him the necessary au- thority.
 The question was then laid before Judges Beardsley and Culver, who are expected to pass upon it very soon. If they decide that the required notice cannot be waived, Hoyt's counsel will be unable to make any use of the petition. In connection with it they have prepared reports of large mass of new evil dence tending to establish the claim of Hoyt's mental unsoundness. The general purport of this testimony is that both the prisoner and his father showed strong indications of in sanity, being affected at times with fits of melancholy, irritability and other unnaturally disturbed mental conditions.
 Both of Hoyts sisters are declared in the petition to be ready to testify that they be- lieve the prisoner to have been insane on the morning of the homicide.
