place is on the railroad and consists of 900 acres
of valley, rolling, and hill land. The land has
plenty of timber and water, and is represented
TO have 100 acres of frst-class vine land, thirty
already planted; wheat and barley fields, graz
ing land, and an excellent location for a house.
The selection was urged by Messrs. Blanding,
Phillip, Apgar, and Harrison, all of whom have
visited the place Mr.. Harrison stated that the
association could certainly secure an annual
income of $4,000 from the production of the
vine land on the place.
The price of the place is S1s,0OO and proper
buildings will have to he built. Colonel Kinne,
the chairman of Thursdays meeting, made
strong effort for a postponement of action in or
der to allow another examination of the So
called Smith place, six miles out of San Jose,
on the Alum Rock road. He said the San Jose
members of the association would expect it, and
would resent any hasty action. The idea of
haste " used in this connection, says the CltrOn
icle, caused smile to circulate around the
meeting and the question was called for by
various members, who asserted that a further
delay would not be tolerated by the public nor
the various veteran associations, which had al
ready become impatient at the many long
delays already incurred.

After the business meeting adjourned the
line was reformed and marched to the Summit
House. on the very spot where Company b, on
the eve of its departure twenty-One years ago,
was presented with a sword by the citizens. Dr.
Lyndc addressed the assemblage from the same
balcony, and, after cordially welcoming the
veterans, introduced General Lee, the first
colonel of the regiment, who was followed
by General Lyman and others. Subsequently
the visitors were handsomely entertained. The
Worcester Chronicle in its account Of the ccre-
monies, gives the following sketch of the 9th: {:
1t was recruited from the counties of BcrlI-
shire, Hampden, Hampshire, Franklin, and
Western Worcester and were good representa-
tivcs of the ycOmanry of Massachusetts,, just
such men as might be expected from her home
life and school system. They were men of iron
constitution and Spartan courage, and fit rep
rcsentativcs Of the ancestry and hills which
gave them birth. Few regiments obtained
national reputation, nor is it claimed for this,
though its actions have often been the subject
Of cncOmiuns far removed from the bias of home
influences or special reporters. OF It's eighteen

Foster of their courage and endurance he re-
fused their demand for surrender, and notified
the enemy any further attempts to communi-
cate with them by flag Of truce would be fired

safe to say any regiment in the service may
safely copy the Twenty-scventh Massachusetts,
regiment without fear of lowering their stand

command Of a second sergeant. At Southwest
Creek, n. c., March 8, 'G5 they contested sim
gle-handcd with Iolle's entire rebel division
and, after a full hours contest, the remnant of
the regiment as mem was captured. SO hot
had been the contest, the enemy refused, for
some time, to believe this small force Of men
had so long held them at bay. Colonel Zachary,
Of the Twenty-eighth Georgia regiment, who
received the surrender of their ColOncls sword,
was so surprised at the contest made by this
handful of men, that he sought out its wounded
Colonel at High Point, n. c., and returned him
his sword, saying any one who can fight like
that is entitled TO his sword OF the ,557 men

ma. wADLEY,s DEATH.
Detailed Account OF His Last Mo
ments by an Eyewitness.

We are permitted to publish the sub
joined extract from letter from Saratoga
to gentleman Of this city, giving a graphic
account of the sudden taking of of the la
mented Col. William NJ. Wsdley. It will
be read with mournful interest:
y ''Mr. Wsdley, in company with his wife
and daughter, had set out for walk TO DR..
Warnings. Col. Geo. 8. Owens had been
over aud invited him to drive with him and
Mr.. Ward, but Mr.. Wadley said no, be was
Just going out with his wife and daughter.
They had rot proceeded far when Mr.. Wad-
ley seemed tired, and his wife proposed to
him to turn back and get a carriage. He as
sented and they walked across the street, but
just before he reached the pavement he fell
heavily, striking his head on the curbstone.
A physician was just getting into his buggy
near by; he came to their assistance, and, in
crowded Saratoga, many persons soon
gathered. They lifted him for few yards
and laid him on the grass. He only said,
Give me air. drew three deep gssping
breaths, and was gone. DIR. Warning, who
lived near by, had been called, and the
hotel proprietor came too. They
put the poor wife and daughter
in carriage, and sent them back to the
hotel. But first they took Mr.. Wsdley into
a house, where everything was tried to re-
suscitate him. When all was found vain
and the ladies were sent away, they took
him to one of the 'undertaker's parlors'
they have for such cases. There his body
remained all night, and was next morning
embslmed and prepared for the grave.
He looked so calmly beautiful In
the repose Of death, and his race wore an
expression of triumph which told that all
was we'll with him.

In yesterdays NEWS mention was made
that Mr.. Michael Cosgrove, an elderly man
living on Ann street, near Indian, had mys-
teriously disappeared from his home on
Tuesday afternoon last, and had not been
since seen. About haif-past five O'Clock
yesterday morning Henry Ennis, keeper of
the locks on the canal, discovered the body
of a white man floating in the water
near the first lock, and, securing
It, hauled It up on the banks. The Coroner
was notified, and Immediately proceeded to
hold an inquest. There were no marks of
violence found on the body, after careful
examination, and there was nothing to in
dictate foul play. The body was recognized
as that of the missing man, Michael Cos
grove, and, after the inquest, the remains
were delivered to the afflicted wife. The
deceased was about fifty-two years of age,
and was quite comfortably off. He left no
children. The jury rendered a verdict Of
"fOund in the canal drowned"

weak at the bat, the curve pitching OF
Lorsch being too much for them, as they
were unable to get the hang OF 1t until the
seventh inning, when they made squirt,
and the Brennans were wise enough 10
change pitchers on them, which completely
upset the boys. The playing of the Brel-
mans was simply superb both at the bat and
in the field, the pitching, catching and first
base play being very fine.
