A Pair Of Mutes.

Correspondence OF the SPEcTAToR.1
Mr.. Editor:-When the train on the G.
g. O. R. R. left Richmond Thursday night.
the 3rd of December, the ladies' car did
not have more than a dozen passengers
Among them were a young couple of mutes,
with pair of infants-say Is months and
months old. The mother, a bright-faced
Irish looking girl, with the youngest child
in her arms, could, much of the time keep
up constant conversation with her hus-
band, who, short of stature and rather Ger
man in appearance, holding the other child,
was equally expert. They piled Capt. Cason
with innumerable notes of enquiry. When
either child cried, it excited the admiration
of the passengers to see how exceedingly ex-
pert each was in soothing them, and this
often by walking the isle of the car. But
it was when we arrived at Charlottesville
(lower) as soon as the name was cried,
each sprang up with a baby and bundle
under each arm, and when, with our cane,
we gesticu.ated, they in moment compre-
hended and sat down. Reaching the juno
tion, all of us with them moved to the Va.
Midland train. Here was scene that not on
ly increased our interest, their fellow-trav-
elers, but in the briefest moment arrested
that of every passenger on the other road.
Capt. Cason had prepared us for it, by tell
ing us here the parents would separate
the mother would go to Lynchburg, and the
father and the two interesting babies to
tion. the Youngest fed on the bottle, with
two long. long nights, and day-with such

 The annual meeting of the cooperative society was held in the Lyceum last evening. The reports of the secretary1 and superin- tendent were extremely gratifying and showed plainly the benefit derived from the society by it's members. The number of membership tickets sold last spring was 465, at S1 each, This amount was turned over with such rapidity and with such judicious care that during the first three months ot the society's existence it purchased nearly s1 200 worth of goods. During the first ten days of the present term the business equaled that done last year.
 At present the membership is but 325, but active steps are being taken to bring the SO ciety's work before the notice of the whole college and thus gain more members. The board of directors elected for the following year is identical with that of last spring with the exception of those elected to take the place of graduates or departments of the col lege not previously represented.

A Mammoth oyster HOuse-Gosstp 0n
 the River-Other News.
 Henry c. Rowe, the pioneer oyster grower of the State, is about to have new three story oyster shop erected which will be the largest building used in the oyster business in Fair Haven. It will be erected on MT. Rowe's recently acquired property purchased from Captain w. A. Wright short time ago. The shop will be arranged on princi- pie entirely different from anything in use at present, the arrangement being scheme of Mr. Rowe's own device. The oysters when brought up from the Sound by steamers will be hoisted by steam power to the top floor of the shop where they will be kept until want ed. On the second floor will be the shuck- CTS, the oysters being shoveled down from above in spouts as needed. The shells from the shuckers' room will in turn be shoveled to the ground floor, where also the business of shipping choice oysters in the shell will be conducted. There are several contrac- tors figuring on the job ot erect ing the building now. MT. Rowe IS also arranging for the construction of a steamer, which will be larger than either of the two now owned by him. His large and rapidly increasing business demands these changes. A few years ago sharple was sufficient to bring up all the oysters the bus mess demanded.
 Benjamin Potter, who is very i'll at the hospital, was reported no better yesterday.
 The iron hand railings on the Quinnipiac bridge are disarranged by small boys, who twist them out of place and then bend them so that they will not go into place again. Last night one of these rails was left projecting into the passenger walk and several people who ran into it in the darkness were consld- erably injured thereby.
 George Dayton, who disposed of his steamer Molly to Captain Samuel Potter a few days ago, is contemplating, so it is said, the purchase of larger dredger. Captain Potter has now begun to run regular trips down the harbor with his new purchase. Efforts will be made by the W. c. T. U. to prevent anyone from getting license to self liquor in the place now occupied by John Kehoe whose license has been revoked. There have been three licenses already re- voked in the place in question within as | many years. It is thought that another week will see the completion of the work that has kept Grand street all torn up for the past five months. Miss Minnie Jones of Portland, Me, is on visit to several friends in town. She ex- poets to return Monday.

Death ofa Former New Haven Young
 Lady.

L40ys
 Mrs. D. F. Boyle of Hartford, daughter of Bernard Clark of this city, aged twenty-five years, died at her fathers residence, IA lief ferson street, yesterday afternoon shortly after o'clock Four weeks ago last Satur- day she came home not feeling we'll, and on the following Sunday she was taken with gastric fever and for three weeks she took no nourishment of any kind. On the beginning of the fourth week she rallied and rose from her bed to write letter, but she was taken down again and on Tuesday last she began to fail rapidly, being stricken down with inflammation of the bowels, which resulted in her death. She spent the early part Of her life in the Nazareth convent at Roches- ter, N. Y. She was married November 1, 1889, and her husband is well known busl- ness man in Hartford, where she has resided for the past three years. She was well known in Hartford, Rochester and New Ha- ven, and her many friends in these places will sincerely regret her early death. Dur ing her sickness she was always cheerful, never for a moment complaining of the lp- tense pain that she was suffering Her death was quiet and peaceful. The last rites of the church having been performed and the members of the family called to her bedside, she closed her eyes in the sleep which knows no waking on earth. Never was person more aptlJ described than in the lines of Goldsmith:
 stNone knew her but to love her;
 None named her but to praise"
