A great deal OF indignation Is being
aroused among the friends OF the late
General Grant, says the Brooklyn Times
correspondent, because of the attacks
being made upon the Rev. DR.. New
man, pastor for many years OF the de-
ceased hero. The attacks are made by
q class of correspondents simply on ac-
count of the intimacy which existed be-
tween the eX-Presdent and the pastor,
giving the latter superior opportunities
for learning the inner life OF the dead
ldcr. They seem to think that the
good doctor has defrauded them of
something which belonged exclusively
to them. General Grants friends here
resent these attacks with hot indgna-
ton. They claim that DR.. Newman
was present at Mt. McGregor on the
express invitation Of General Grant and
family to administer consolation to n
dying man and. his grlef-strlcllen rcla-
tives; that it was nobody elsc's business
than those Immediately concerned; that
DR.. Newman had not made himself
Extensively conspicuous, but had dis
charged his duty to his expiring friend
In u plain, simple manner, and that

Hand Badly Mutilated.

Mr.. Benjamin Hunter, employed as
chief saver. at the saw and planning
mill of d. B. & w. c. Whitaker, on
Cohansey avenue, met with a serious
accident on Thursday last. He was at
work running an inch board on the
saw to divide it into two pieces of half
an inch thickness. While holding the
board to keep it in shape, the end of
one of his fingers caught in the saw.
The hand was rapidly drawn into the
instrument which split the finger in
two, and sawed off all the other fingers
and part of the thumb. Two fingers
were thrown long distance, while
several pieces of severed flesh dropped
to the floor.
The wounded man was immediately
taken to his home, and Drs. J. G. and
David Streets, together with DIR. John
Moore, summoned. Mr.. Hunter was
placed under the influence of ether,
when the mangled remains of the fin
gers were amputated. The afflicted
man rested we'll during the night, and
has since been slowly recovering.
What makes the matter more serious
is that the mutilated member is his
right hand

A Beautiful Testimonial.

There was a gathering of friends at
the residence of Manager Thos. Beach,
on South Atlantic street, Friday even
ing last. About fifty persons in all,
employees of the Getsinger Window
Glass Works, had come together to
show their regard for Mr.. Beach, who
is soon to sever his connection with the
works. As an evidence of their esteem
Mr.. r. B. Leeds presented to Mr..
Beach on behalf of his fellow-workmen
splendid silver tea set, complete in
every part. Each piece bore the in
itials ''T. B." handsomely engraved on
the silver. The recipient thanked his
friends in neat speech, after which
Prof. Stadler's Orchestra furnished
music. Refreshments were served bv
the ladies, and very pleasant time
had by all present. Mr.. Beach is very
popular with the worknen at the Get
singer establishment, and they very
much regret that their old Manager is
to leave them.

Another New Postmaster.

Mr.. William S. Lambert, Station
Agent of the Cumberland and Maurice
River Railroad, was recently appointed
Postmaster at Port Norris. The peo-
pie of the Port are loath to loose the
services of Postmaster Shinn, who has
been a most faithful and efficient off
Ger, but, if change was to be made,
no appointment could have pleased
them better. Mr.. Lambert is a gentle
man of ability and character, well
qualified for the position. He will take
possession of the office soon, when he
will probably remove it to some other
portion of the town. To whatever To-
cation the office may be removed, how
ever, the people will be sure of excel
lent service so long as Mr.. Lambert
remains Postmaster.

which had been made. Officer Fithian
was summoned, and he soon had
the culprit in custody. He was taken
to the lookup, but by an inadvertence
he was allowed to slip over the back
fence, and depart An hour later,
however, he was again arrested, and
taken before the Mayor. The articles
stolen from Mr.. Gomersall were found
in his possession. A search revealed
the fact that he had also stolen a buff
falo robe from Jacob Elwell, and pair
of boots from p. H. Goldsmith & Co.,
on Laurel street. Compton did not
deny his guilt, but gave evasive an
swers. The Mayor bound him over to
the January term of Court. His
father, who is a respectable citizen of
Newport, gave bail for him in the sum
of three hundred dollars.

was read, and, on motion by Council
man Bacon, the tax was reduced from
$50. 900 to $51 900. Communication from
Jona. Elmer, in which that gentleman
offered to donate land for a new street
in the Second ward, to be known as
Mill street, was read, and referred to
Councilmen from that ward. Bills of
John Fralinger and James b. Pierce
for turkeys killed by dogs, were also
paid at the rate of $3.50 for each full
grown bird, and $1.O0 for half grown.
Ordinance No. 35. relating to the di-
vision of the First ward into two wards,
the new ward to be known as the
Fourth ward of the city of Bridgeton,

Greenwich Items.
Who would suppose man would
steal peach trees. Steal peaches, GER
tainlN but from peach trees to peaches
is long distance. 1t is said that Mr..
Isaac Ridgeway has had about one
thousand trees stolen from his nursery.
Peach trees have been in great demand
the past Fall, the supply not equal to
it, at least Mr.. Ridgeway's supply. Mr..
RS trees are in favor with the commu-
nifty, and we suppose some one who
could not buy has borrowed of him.
Query-will said trees grow ''stolen
fruit?" and if so will it be uncommon
sweet fruit?
Cold weather has arrived suddenly.
but not so soon but that most of us
have a supply of fuel. Steam heat
seems to be in great favor Just now,
one gentleman has had eleven radia-
tors set up and is enjoying the prospect
of a cold Winter with infinite calmness.
Mr. Job Bacon has also taken out his
hot-air heaters, and has put in boiler.
The latest improved steamers (if that
is the right way to speak of the con-
cerns) are not quite automatons, but
very near it. Once day or such a
matter, they require to be fed few
raw Goals, and occasionally they require
drink, but in the latter particular
they out-camel a camel, for the water
once drank is condensed and brought
back to do duty again among the
thirsty pipes over and over.
Messrs. Stewart & Mills have set up
a very nice six-horse power engine
with which they accomplish many
things. Slit up scantling saw fire
wood for their large custom work,
grind corn for the store, and feed for
the horses, boil their canned tomatoes
in the season, etc, etc. 1t is just such
a machine as farmer should have to
do his threshing fodder cutting, feed
grinding, food steaming, &C.
1t has not been many years since
Delaware Bay oystermen considered
Back Creek as far North as they dare
go, to lay out their bivalves, but now
Cohansey River is full of floats as far
up as Beuna Vista, and it is said that
Hope Creek is utilized for the same
purpose.
This village will probably never grow
into city, but its size may be increased
considerably, if capitalists would lay
out their money in desirable dwelling
houses. A good many men engaged
in the oyster business would be glad to
move in.

to Branning, the Democratic candidate
for Clerk in Camden County. Edward
Burrough, the Republican candidate,
was chosen by the voters, but there
was a dispute over the returns. The
Governor solves the matter by appoint

been done him.
