Glass is beginning to take the place
of wood and iron in making railroad
bridges in England. The inventor
makes blocks OF glass, which he hard
ems by special process. In solidity, it
is said, they leave nothing to be desired.
The experiments already made have
given surprising results, and the cost is
below that of bridges made of wood or
iron. Moreover, the glass cannot be in.
jured by insects like wood, nor ru'ted
| like iron.

The name of the schemes, political, char
liable aud mercenary, which have courted
success and confidence by assuming the
name of Garfield is legion and some of them
are not lacking in the characteristics of an
ancient legionary company. The outcome
of the recent fair held in the rotunda of the
capitol at Washington in aid of the Gar
field hospital illustrates the lack of popular
sympathy with this manner of paying honor
to the dead president and seems also to be
indicative of the popular incredulity as to
need OR desirability of the institution to aid
in establishing which the name of Garfield
was invoked. The managers of the fair now
concede that it did not pay expenses and
contributions are solicited to make up the
deficit.

The WINDSOR HoMIcIDE-We briefly men
toned last week the murderous assault upon
Henry Barrall, as his name turns out to be, at
Windsor Further accounts show that he Is a
farm laborer and lived about three miles from
Windsor village. 1t seems that on former occa-
sions he had quarrels with certain young roughs
and worsted them They resolved To be avenged,
and on the night in question six of them "laid
for him, lie was discovered in one OF the viii
age stores, and was induced TO come out under
some pretext, but no sooner did he step out into
the darkness of night before the roughs fell upon
him In force and some one or more OF the Assail-
ants stabbed the unfortunate man seven times In
the back with knife. Not content with this the
gang seized Barrall and plunged him through a
basement window, where he lay weltering In his
blood. The cuts extended the whole length Of
Barral's body, one OF them penetrating his right
lung and were made by knife larger than an
ordinary jack-knife. Other accounts say that he
WAS the aggressor William and Frank Gall
agher John Brown, Frank and John McClinton,
Edward Gafiney and George Fields were arr, sted
as being the guilty parties. preliminary hear
ing was had the next day The grand jurors
complaint In effect charged Will m G dagher rs
principal, with Rssaulting Barrall with knife
with intent TO kill, and the other five with felon-
ious and murderous assault as accessories. After
hearing arguments Justice Pollard refused to al
low the prisoners TO give bail, and committed
them to await the result OF Barralrs injuries

The vagueness of popular impressions
about public laws is illustrated by the cir
cumstance that the recommendation of the
president that letter postage be reduced to
two cents and the discussion of the subject
have made a number of people think the
reduction has been arranged. In New York
inquiries at the post office show that many
citizens are thus mistaken, and are claim.
ing the right to send letters for two cents.

BosToN TRAVELLER "The state of Yer
mont, by the appointment of board of
commissioners on forestry, whose duty it
shall be to inquire into the condition of the
forests of that state, and recommend such
measures as may be needed for their pro-
lection, has taken step in the right direc.
ton. The western pineries are rapidly dis
appearing, and as a consequence eastern
forests are annually becoming in themselves
more and more valuable. Besides this, the
extinction of our New England forests is
being found to have serious effect in de-
creasing the water supply, on which so
many manufacturing establishments depend
for power. There is but little doubt that
with care and attention timber culture may
be made to pay, and Vermont has not taken
action any too soon. Other states can prof
itably follow her example,"
