MORAL COURAGE. - The highest
and rarest of human qualities is moral
courage. Men have been brave on
the battlefield who shruuk from the
performances Of private and civil
duties in grave crises. It is the
hour Of trial which tests the character.
When the calamity falls upon the
household, death carries off the most
loved members of the family circle,
wealth is swept away, and the means
Of existence are endangered, it is then
that the father is called upon to put
forth his utmost energies to preserve
a serene front amid the wrecks OF his
domestic interests and affections, and
to rescue those he holds most dear
from impending ruin. To seek obi
won of present griefs and future re-
sponsibilities by drugging the brain
with Intoxicating liquors, by deser-
tions or by suicide, is sin against
God and man. Reverses happen to
the most favored. We have NO right

The Death of James smibert.


 Proceedings Before the Coroner's Jury
 AnOPen, Verdict Returned.
 Since the death of James Smibert of Vest port, in that city, on Saturday last, from in- juries received from falling or being thrown down a ledge of rocks three weeks ago, and his burial on Tuesday, good deal of euri- osity has been excited among the town peo- pie to learn what course the authorities would pursue in their efforts to establish some slew to the mystery.
 When the jury assembled in Sturges' Hall, Friday afternoon last, Justice Adams called on Mrs. Riley, whose name has been men tioned in connection with the case, to testify as to her relations with deceased prior to and on the day of the tragedy. The nature of what that lady had to say was of such char acter that she preferred to say it to the jury alone. The public was therefore excluded amid some excitement The correspondence between herself and deceased was brought into court, but not read. After examining g other witnesses verdict of death from causes to the jury unknown was rendered. Mrs. Riley is a widow of wealth and good charac- ter, residing with her father, Captain Charles Allen, retired sea captain, in his eighty second year.

If so, it will make things not only lively in Bran ford, but decidedly interesting and pleasant.
 The Branford Point Hotel, which the New York company make their headquarters, is situated at Branford Point, Long Island Sound, seven miles from New Haven, and is said to be one of the most delightfully."- To- cated on that body of water. The hotel for the last two years has had the reputation of being one of the best kept of the numerous hotels on the shores of the Sound. It is under the management of MT. s. G.
