from Morrisville 10 johnson. The route
lay through Hyde Park. and passing along
bridge. ss the travellers entered that
town. the near horse put its front foot into
a hole 10 the plsnkiug Of the bridge. The
animal turned somerssult. and Mr.. Dill
lingham was thrown on, on to the horses.
Both gentlemen were well shaken up and
bruised, but fortunately escaped serious
injuries.

1 Tie demoralized condition OF the wool
III afkel is explained 10y the fact that. for
many months. large quantities Of wool have
been admitted practically free OF duty.
The wool is fixed up in foreign countries
10 ucb manner that IL is admitted as
waste but the fibre is not injured, and at
small expense manufacturers put ii in
shape to be used iu the place Of the best
secured woods. The attention OF the De-
partment has been called to the imposition
but thus far no steps have been taken to
prevent the fraud.
Hon. A b. Valentine Of Bennington, in
letter published in the Rutland Herald.
explains the whole process aud admits that
he uses this wool in his mill, whereupon
the Reformer accuses him OF being par
ticeps crimi,,s, partner in the crime. II
this is all the defence Clevelands supper
tiers Can give for a PLAIN violation OF the
law they must have very weak case. Mr.
Valentine is not at all concerned in the
importatious Of these woods. They regu
larly pass the custom house and are placed
on sale in the open market. The buyers
have right to suppose that the custom
house officials have done their duty, and
it is asking altogether too much Of them
to require that they go into the trouble
and expence Of investigating the way and
manner Of the importation OF each pack
age The work OF the custom house ough
to be and alwa has been sufficient
guarantee that the importations has been
regular and the iuty paid II there has
been fraud they certainly are not parties
to 1t Neither is the wrong necessarily
char2eable to tue officials at the port Of
entry. but to the Department which makes
the ruling that wool fixed in this manner
shall be classed as waists. III such plain
cvRsious OF the law are to continue ii
would be better to have free wool. There
is no doubt in the matter, and il the Dem
ocrats remain in power it is quite likely
that wool will continue to come 10 81
waste" whether the Mills bill becomes a
law or not.

As we went to press last week the
rial Of j. Tasting Rhymes for the L.
j. Bledsoe homicide was going on.
We were not permitted to hear the
evidence, being a witness
We went up to hear the speeches
Of the attorneys. District Attorney
Toler opened in speech of near an
hour in length. He was followed by
Stephen Faulk. attorney of defence
in a very pathetic speech. touching
on portions of the evidence. After
Mr.. Faux closed R. B. Todd arose
and in plain, practical way went
over the evidence and for sound
reasoning, rehearsal of the evidence
and presentation of the case he did
we'll. Following him was Elder Tray
lor, brother-in-law of deceased, and
our people should make allowances
for his vindictive speech for that
reason. Had it not been for his al
fusion to the colored jurors we could
have made allowances for his feelings
or. insulting remarks to the prisoner
but taken altogether it Infatuated
the people and the best of our peac-
able and law-abiding citizens were
enraged. Better counsel prevailed
however. When Mr.. Traylor closed
David Todd arose and rebuked the
counsel who had preceded him. He
then in his usual able manner made
an excellent speech for the defence,
relying altogether upon the evidence
Of Arthur Wright, stating that mas
much as R. B. Todd had dwelt at
length upon the case he would not
tax the patience of the jury. We
did not hear the closing argument of
District Attorney Toler. The jury
we're only out ten minutes and |
brought in a verdict of not guilty. |
There was 90 much feeling that
Il was hard to keep order in the
court room. A great many ladies
we're in attendance upon this trial.

We need more legislation in rela-
tion to delivery o: freight and killing
of stock by the trains. Over one
year ago the agent put in claim for
US for a can of lard destroyed in o
wreck. No pay vet. About one
month ago the train ran over and
killed calf fer US, the section boss
reported it, hut no news from head
quarters. We were under the i'm
preston that our general assembly
passed. bill requiring payment Of
stock killed OH railroads to be settled
at the station where the killing was
done. Our recollection Of the bill is
that it gave the railroad company
thirty days to pay. Heretofore the
company established rule that tllirt,
Jays prescribes action, etc, if this i,
so and they have the right to make
such ruling the law is dead letter.
If the losses arr to be adjusted and
settled at home why send off proof to
mead quarters?
The following is the net in relation
TO public carriers paying for lost
freight:
Section That stranboais railroads and
| all other public carriers duiug business in thi:
tie, are hereby required 10 pay at the poin
ii delivery f., all freight they may fail, refuse
| or neg ect io deliver aud for all overcharge.
yer and above the rate Of freight expressed
"a IN biIl OF ia ling or contract, except fol
freight received in sealed cars from othe
ads outside ofthis State. AM they may be
'ned either IN the courts Of the point OF deliv
ny or M the cour's OF the domicile of said
''-amb1a' or Other public carriers, at tn,
pnon OF the party b,ing the suit for the re-
covery OF all freighs they may fail, refuse OF
tgiect To deliver, or for damages arisin,
from such failure, refuse or neglect to delive
u for damages Jone to freight while in transi
provided further, that no charge shall b,
made for 'reigh, no: actually delivered.
Heretofore the freight bill was de-
nanded for lost as we'll as freight il
iepot before any could be taken out
rhis latter part is the best part o
hat law. 1t is surprising to US tha
he law makers did not include the
Killing of stock.
