Sad mud Fatal Accident.

Sad and Fatal Accident.
The Bound Brook Chronicle says
One of the most awful and saddest acct
dent We have been called on to record in
our several years labor in this place is the
accidental shooting of our most estimable
townslady, Mrs. Matthews, wife of our re-
spected physician, DR.. B. B. Matthews,
by her son Eugene, on Friday evening
last, about o'clock. The two sons
Eugene and William, have been contem-
plating trip to Florida, on pleasure
excursion, and the father purchased them
fifteen shot repeating rifle in the city,
on Thursday. 1t was while showing the
mother this weapon and the manner in
which toperated, that the sickening ac-
cident occurred. The gun was in the
hands OF these Eugene, and while oper-
ating it it was accidentally discharged,
the bullet striking the mother directly be-
meath the left shoulder and piercing the
heart, causing death instantly.
The accident has cast a gloom over the
entire town, as the respect for the lady
was universal, and her death will be long
lamented. The family is completely bowed
in grief and the suffering of the son is
intense.
The weapon was Winchester Repeat
er, and a very costly one. William the
youngest son, had been in the Chronicle
Office but few minutes before the acct
dent happened, showing the weapon to
his young friends, and pleasantly con-
templating their intended trip.
[Dr, Matthews, above referred to is a
brother of Mr.. Miles Matthews, of this
city, and is known to many of our people =

Surprise Parties.
A number of the friends of Mr.. Mansfield
Parker, who lives on Elm street, in this
city, surprised him last Friday evening,
on the occasion of bis birthday. They
brought nice chair as present and
plenty of refreshments, and the evening
was spent pleasantly to all concerned.
On last Saturday afternoon and evening,
the relatives and friends of DR.. Geo. H..
Larson and wife, of this city, were given
surprise visit, the occasion being the
twenty-fifth anniversary of their mar
riage Friends from the country came
in during the afternoon, and those from
this city paid their visit in the evening.
Some valuable presents were left by the
visitors, among them handsome upbol-
stored patent rocker and arm chair; Inc
extension table; IA pretty decorated water
pitcher with their names, &c., upon the
side; several articles of silyerware, lamps,
&c. The chair, &C., was neatly presented
by Rev. VIM. Mick in short speech and
feelingly responded to by DIR. Larson.
About two hundred persons were pres
ent in the evening. Several of the Doct-

number. Refreshments were provided
abundantly, and the visit was highly en-.
joyed.

The temperance lecture last evening, at
the Baptist Church in this city, by Mrs.
Ellen Judith Foster, drew out an audi
ence so large that the main audience room
was filled to OVERLOOKING, and extra seats
had to be brought in. There were at least
seven hundred people present Such an
audience showed that there is an unusual
interest prevailing in the temperance
question. Mrs. Fosters lecture was an
excellent one taken as whole. She is a
lady of unusual talent as a speaker, but
she has her sex's fault (dare we say it p
of using great many words in express
ing thought. This made her lecture
about two hours long, and some people
began to think she was wound up to run
all night. The address, however, was
quite original In many respects, and was
calculated to do good and we were glad
to see SO many people present that are not
in the habit Of attending temperance
meetings.

viSed them to hold little. We did
so from conviction that it would be
their interest to do SO. Although, the
crop is large, it is not turning out any
thing like it was expected to do. The
crops West are reported much shorter,
and In our own State, we are told that
the yield on many farms is far below
what was expected. When the farmer
cannot sell his products for the cost of
production, he should be slow to part
with them, and only when convinced
that he can do no better. We can
yet see no reason why Tennessee wheat
should not advance in price in the near
future. The question of drouth is
settled. Farmers need no longer hold
their surplus corn. 1t must go south
if marketed, and as the corn crops of
Georgia and Alabama are reported
good, and will soon begin to mature, it
might be well to market the balance
of our little surplus as early as posi-.

THE GRAIN TRADE.

Being associated with Mead, Gray
d Co., in the grain trade, and connec.
ted with an agricultural newspaper,
we suppose is the reason we are so FREE
quently asked for information upon
this subject. While we may be pre-
sumed to know, and really ought to
know something, we are no better
posted than any farmer who takes the
trouble to examine the crop reports of
the country and compare them with
former crops and the probable demand.
Every farmer should thoroughly post
himself as to the proper time to sell as
we'll as anything else pertaining to his
business.
But after we have collected from
every source possible all the informa-
ton We can get, we are not always GER
tain to arrive at correct conclsions.
But the better we are informed, the
more likely we are to be correct.
When we began the publication of
our little agricultural newspaper, jan
uary, 1882, the prime object was to
encourage and assist the farmer, es-
pecially the small farmer, who had, in
consequence of the drouth of 1881,
become more or less discouraged. For
two and half years we have worked
faithfully with that object in view.
We have endeavored every week to
collect from every source possible, and
give to our readers such information as
we thought would advance their
interest, and especially the interest of
the farmer. In so doing we have tried
to be as accurate and correct as posi-.
BILE. When we have erred, Gas all
men are liable to do), and led others
to err, it has not been intentional.
We have always endeavored to be cor
rect.
In our market reports, and in giving
opinions as to when the farmer should
sell his surplus, we have always en-.
deavored to base our reports and opin.
ions upon the very best and most relia-
BILE information we could obtain. We
have never allowed our personal in
terests in the produce trade to prevent
us from being true to the interests Of
our readers. When we cannot faith
fully and honestly perform these duties
as journalist, then we will retire.
But we are sometimes reminded that
we ought not express cur opinions, lest
we lead some into error. What we
may have to say upon any subject
whether it be public roads, how tc
plant your corn, or when to sell your
wheat, is intended and should be re.
ceived only for what it is worth. We
simply state what we believe to bt
correct for the consideration of oul
readers, and they must receive it a

cles, upon any subject, for what it il
