We have given publicity to both theo-
ries respecting the death Of Willie Cain.
Our Camden correspondent gave the ac-
cidental drowning theory, and our Rock
land exchange, the murder theory. The
latter is altogether the most plausible,
and is sustained 10y the confessions Of the
boys implicated and by circumstances at
tending the finding Of the body, But a
good deal more light needs to be thrown
upon the case before it can be decided
how Willie Cain came to his death.

The New Haven Union, whose editor
has stumped this State for the Green
hackers once or twice, does not take a
very hopeful view Of the future Of the
Greenback party, as will be seen by the
following extract from recent issue:
There is not much of the Greenback party left,
and what little there is Is i'll a fair way to be de
stroyed after the fashion of the Kilkenny cats.
The leaders are quarreng and revilng one another
and all on account of the spols for there are spoils
to be fought over. Lee Crandall, of Washington,
publisher Of the National View and Secretary of
the National Committee, wants to handle all the
funds OF the party including 3d. 1000 contributed by
Peter Cooper for missionary work. But Is, 5
Heath. who is assistant secretary of the Nation
al Committee, insists that he is the proper to
finger the dollars, and Peter Cooper prefers him to
Crandall. Weaver very shrewdly keep2 on the side
OF Cooper, and tins has caused CFandall to attack
HIM in his paper. Weaver is roughly handled be
cause he receives compensation for his services as
an advocate OF the Greenback cause. The Grand
Rapids Leader comes to the defense Of General
Weaver and says: "Although politician all his
life General Weaver is a poor man He has IL
family dependent upon his daily labors for support
and cannot in justice to his wife and children give
his time entirely to the The amount he is
paid is not any thing like what he can at his
profession h gets what covers his expenses and q
little besides This mean and insidlous attempt
to undermine General Weaver Is worthy of Gran
dali and his traitorous sheet. We warn all eaver
Greenbackers against the National View as un-
worthy of their confidence" If this thing keeps
on 1t will only be few months I'LL the mournerS
will be called upon to properly inter the remains
OF the Greenback party, now rapidly decaying
This is Uncle SOlOn's party of the future.

ATTEMPTED Burglary.

Wednesday night, June end, burglar at
tempted to break into Fitch's clothing store
by the rear window. A little before 12 o'clock,
washburn, the clerk, heard some one open the
gate and enter the yard. He watched from
an upper window until he saw him trying
to break In at the window when he sent q
bullet after him from his revolver aud gave
him three more to hasten his departure. 1t
is not known whether any Of them took ef-
feet. The night watch was called and an ef-
fort made to find the would be burglar, but
without success. 1t is supposed that he left
for the South on q freight, that was passing
about that time The same night, q man
stopped off at New London, who had been
shot in the head and thigh who claimed that
he received them in Rochester or Wellington,
he could not remember which, while passing
through o lane. Later he was seen in Shelby
and claimed that he was wounded in Shiloh.
He proved to Peter Auckerman of Mansfield,
and claimed he had been to Cleveland, was
dead heading his way home and was shot as
above stated. Whether the one at New Lon
don and Shelby was the same man or wheth-
er two different individuals were shot the
same night, one at Wellington and the other
at Shelby Is not determined. Burglars seem
to be interested IN Mr.. Fitch, this being the
eighth time they have visited him In the last
few years. We may mention in this connect
ion, that since certain Of our citizens have
been confined in the Penitentiary burglaries
have been almost unknown. We would not
insinuste that they were the authors of the
frequent burglaries formerly occurring: we on
ly mention it as q remarkable coincidence.

A New Musical Instrument

Has been invented that does away with the
expense Of instruction and the tediousness
Of practice, and has no reference to the skill
or the incompetency Of the performer. The
orguInette, or hand-organ minus the uncanny,
Hea.infested and thoroughly odious monkey
and the fragrant and greasy italian, Is GER

guinette, though 1t is chuck full Of music,
will stop whenever you want 1t to. 1t isn't
like the ancient violin or the modern piano,
that will see-saw and thumpy-aty thump
and thrashaty bang until every invalid in the
neighborhood has lost the grace Of quiet
spirit, covets deafness and gets an anodyne.
The mania of going on forever is not so likely
to seize the one who turns crank. For
instance, there is the churn, the clothes
wringer, the corn thresher and the grindstone;
who ever heard of q case where the boy who
presided at these instruments could not be
persuaded to stopl Another advantage of
the orguinette is that the owner can have
any kind or style or quantity Of music he
likes, and can add to it as he can afford.

can get ever so much polka or quickstep in

he could of Near or Old Hundred. We have
not inquired, but we have no doubt the
machine will work both ways, and what an
infinite and pleasing variety one could
