"A silk mill has just been completed
In Phillipsburg. for the same parties that
wanted to establish q mill in this city.
The Democrat, of that town, says Of the
new mill:
"Tbe silk mill building was formally
turned over to the trustees by the con-
tractor last week, and he received his last
payment then. The total cost of the
building was $37,96 engine, %, 200;
boilers, 81. 400; cistern, 800; steam heat
ing and automatic sprinkler, 1900;
pump, 5000; lot, $500. There are other
expenses which bring the cost Of the mill
up to about $4,000. The smount OF
bonds is $50, 1000. The cost OF the build
ing over that amount has been assumed
by the silk mill company. The stock
holders have responded very promptly,
and nearly all the stock has been paid for
In full. Several thousand dollars worth
of the stock is held by Easton parties.

The location of the l.. V. II II. depot
In Pennington, seems now to be definite
ly settled. The Democrat says, 1t will be
built on the lot first proposed at the foot
Of Main street.-the Mrs. Croft lot. Last
week the freight house was started and
nearly completed, and no doubt the pas
senger depot will soon be erected. There
has been considerable delay In locating
the depot, q strong effort having been
made by some few Of the citizens TO have
it located nearer the centre Of the town.
All the down town people advocated It's
location on the spot that has finally been
agreed upon, II being thought that as the
upper end Of town already had two depots
the lower part was entitled to at least one.
It would have cost the railroad company
like $15, 600 to buy the right Of way aud
extend the road to the centre Of town.

When Grant was Moved.

Washington Letter in Boston Traveller.
In the course of chat with your correspondent
an old army officer who was on Grants staff dur
ing the war said that during all the negotiations
between Grant and Lee, Grant never once
showed the slightest trace of excitement or ex
ultation. ''He had the most remarkable control
over himself of any man / ever saw. Never but
on two occasions have l seen him give way to
his feelings The first occasion was the greeting
of the public school children of San Francisco.
upon the occasion Of his arrival from his tour
around the world. Grant was passionately fond
of children. Their welcome touehed his heart,
and the tears flowed down his face. He made
no effort to conceal his agitation. The other
occasion was when he was notified that an old
comrade who had served with hint during the
war had been killed in q railroad accident in
New York. This was after his first nomination.
for the presidency and before his election. He
was IN his headquarters on the corner of Seven
teenth and streets when the dispatch contain
ing the sad news was brought to him. He read
it slowly and carefully. Then he leaned on his
deck with head in his hands and cried like q

Took His Life with Carbolic Acid.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Aug. 28-Ernest
Schmiedicke, aged thirty FIVE, living at No 16
West Broadway, on the West Side, last night
took his own life in the presence OF his family by
taking the contents of an ounce bottle of carbolc
acid. Schmiedicke was a Woodworking man,
employed as book-keeper. He was very popu-
lar but was given to protracted sprees, after
which he frequently threatened to take his own
life. For the past two three weeks he had
been on a spree. and was SOLDERING up yesterday
and did not work during the day, though he
went to the Office during the morning. He did
not go home until evening, and, after partially
undressing himself, swallowed the fatal dose.
On seeing that her husband was corpse the
poor wife became delirieus, and has since re-
manned in that condition.

Everything concerning Mexico is Of interest
just now, and it is pleasant to be assured that
among the chief productions of the country are
children. Thus ohservant correspondent in
that country notes the large acquaintance of the
people with multiplication in saving that Mexico
is the hot bed of children. The land is flooded
with them. and small family is a thing un-
known. They greet you, he says, at every win
dow at every corner, on every womans back.
They fill the carriages on the plaza, they like
a swarm of bees around honeysuckle-one on
every tiny flower and hundreds waiting for their
chance. A man died the other day who was fol-
lowed to the grave by eighty seven sons and
daughters. and had buried thirteen, so that he was
father to the grand total of 100 children There
is another living in Mexico who has had
two wives and who has living forty five children.
Allowing the small average of five in the fam
lily. one can see how numerous the grand
children would be. I acquainted, he adds,
with gentleman whose mother is but thirteen
and half years older than he. and she had
eighteen more of family. 1t is blessed thing
that the natives are able to live in a cane hut
and exist on beans and rice, else the list of
deaths by starvation would be something dread
