NEW ENGLAND NEWS ITEMS Bprioßdeld nod Vicinity. Dr George F. Jelley of Salem, formerly of.this citv, lias been apoointed superintendent of the McLean insane asylum at Somerville, in place of Dr Tykr, resigned. The construction of the Billings memorial chapel in the Springfield cemetery, which is to cost $25,000, has been deferred till next year, but will begin early in the spring. Upwards of $200,000 of the city tax of $344 000 was collected before October 21, the sum of $75,- 000 being taken on Friday, the 20th, which was the last day of grace to save the discount. Dr Wilbur and others have formed a company at Chicopee for the manufacture of paper, and will at once commence budding. They will erect, this fail, one building 50 feet square and an other 100 by 25 feet. The trains of the new Athol and Enfield rail road allow people in those towns to leave home in the morning, spend about three hours in this citv, and return home the same day—a conve nience wh.ch they are beginning to appreciate. Capt Emerv Parker, who, with Capt Cooley, has so many years done the shad fishing at Double Ditch, died at his homo in Agawam on Saturday from an apoplectic fit, in which be fell while rowing with a son across the Connecti cut.

This makes business for the railroads west, while the southern route from this city is crowded with coal cars, bringing to the up-river cities and towns their winter supplies of anthracite. The Republican is having built, by Hoe C., one oi their best four-cylinder rotary presses, capable of printing 10,000 sheets an hour, and wili have it up and running with the New Year.

His left check bone is broken, his head is swollen, and he is quite lame from his struggle with the thrives The two ruffians who assaulted him were youngerly mon, and the neighbors say the same fellows had been seen hang ing about the place several times during the evening. The first man to go to the rescue of Mr Burt was Henry Keyes, who heard his cries of murder, but the assailants had fled before be could reach him. A dirk with a blade six inches long was picked up on the scene of the encoun ter, Tuesday morning. People in that vicinity are loud in their demands for a larger police force, and the measure of the city council looking to that end will receive the hearty approval of ali our citizens. The civil term of the superior court commenced, Tuesday morning, with Judge Putnam of Bos tonoo the bench. Kev Dr L K Tnayer of this city offered the opening prayer.

Dimmock of Williams college made a report of the needs and resources of that insti tution to a coterie of its alumni and friends at Boston, Monday night. He stated, what is uni versally conceded, that the character of its present i faculty is superior to that of any that has pre ceded it, while the same is true’ of the library, apparatus and general facilities for instruction. No college in the country, except Harvard, does so much for the pecuniary assistance of its stu dents. But while in a bread view the pros pact is hopeful, like ali similar institutions, it i needs money, not so much to keep it from sink ing, as to keep it fairly abreast of sister colleges lin the enlarged educational field. The power that Williams has wielded with small means is a sufficient guarantee that larger bequests would be worthily and profitably employed. Wi liam Somers, residing on the Taylor place on the South Hadley plains, entered a com plaint at South Hadley Falls, Tuesday evening, that his wife bad attempted his life. Officer Woodard thereupon arrested Mrs Somers, and on Wednesday morning an examination was held before Justice Dwight at the Falls, when the facts came to light, as follows: On Tuesday evening of last week Somers came in to tea, but was told to go out by his wife, as it was not quite ready. He did so and was called in a moment after, when be found the tea poured for him. He drank a portion of it, but didn't like the taste, and soon afrer, becoming sick, he began to suspect the tea had been drugged. On Wednesday morning Mrs Somers, who is the “better horse” of the pair, made him drink some more of the tea, saying it was the best she bad ever made, and he must drink it. He was again sick .and went for Dr Hitchcock, who pronounced the symptoms those ri a cate of poison, but the wife being sick with similar symp oms, and the family being pretty low in the social scale, not much not cewas taken of the matter. The doctor however secured a portion of the tea ior iuture analysis. On Mon s ay evening Bcmers, being a little better, walked out, and on Uis return was met by his spouse at TIIE SPRINGFIELD WEEKLY REPUBLICAN: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1871. the door with a savage-looking knife about a toot long. Sho made a lunge at him, but he dodged the blow and got away front her. The knife was shown at the trial, as also the Ma, which bad set tled, precipitating a white sediment, which, if arsenic, would lie sufficient to kill two men. Mrs Somers was neld to appear for trial, and, in de fault of a friend to furnish the $1290 bail requir ed, will probably go to Northampton to wait and reflect. Both parties are young, the woman,who is the elder, being apparently not over thirty, al though she has already had several husbands, some of whom have disappeared in a mysterious manner. Besides the five settled clergymen at Bernard ston, there are right exclcrgy men who reside in the town as farmers, mechanics and gentlemen at leisure. The large farm barn of Mrs Richard Hennesey, on Cov’s Hill, in Warren, was destroyed by tiro about'2 o'clock, Wednesday morning, with 10 tens of hay, grain, farming tools, oarriages, two horsesand several swine; insured for SIBOO in the Worcester Mutual.

The mountains west of North Adams are on tire, the locality being that designated as the “Bear swamp/’and a large amount of spruce timber has been destroyed. The mountain on the east side of the Hoosac mountain has been sot on fire by the locomotive used in the east end. The fire in Clarksburg, which came near Joseph Nixon’s house, was stopped by digging a trench and starting a hack fire. The shingles put upon the roof of the house of Lucius Ninis of Greenfield, 63 years ago, were j removed last week, and found to be in quite a good state of preservation. They lasted almost I as long as the chestnut rails of the old farmer, who said ‘‘good chestnut rails would last 100 years, he knew, for he’d tried it himself, over and over again." A building off Franklin street, Westfield, own t ed by Alonzo Whitney, and variously occupied, was burned, Thursday morning; loss S6OOO, part ly insured. Eastern Jlasanchu sella. Prof J. D Whitney of the mining school at Cambridge has gone to California with bis family to continue work upon the geological sur vey of that state, under his charge. He expects to be able to complete the field work of the sur vey in another year. Capt Knowlton’s narrative of the manner in which he gained possession of the schooner E. A Horton shows that be has the traditional Yankee pluck and enterprise, though it may have been somewhat misdirected. When he learned that his vessel had been seized and taken to Guysboro, N. S., he left Gloucester, unknown to any one.and went to that place with the determi nation to get her back if possible. Under the guise of a quartz-mine prospector, in which em ployment his experience had been quite large, he established his headquarters at a private house about six miles from Guysboro, and spent his days in examining specimens of quartz which were brought to him,and his nights in spying out the land. When he had completed his plans and had obtained soundings of the rivers, he went to Little Canso, six miles from Guysboro,where was an American vessel, and obtained six seamen willing to help him in his adventurous undertak ing, and after a long and circuitous journey smuggled them into Guysboro. Three nights later, he went with his men to the wharf, broke open a store house and took the Horton’s sails, seized the ship and put to sea. The passage was very stormy, and the crew had all they could do to keep themselves from being washed overboard, while the vessel was steered wholly by dead reck oning, since they had no instruments except a compass. The captain says that he expected to be pursued, bnt had determined to burn his ship rather than have it fall into English hands a second time. The citizens of Gloucester gave him a public and very enthusiastic reception at the town hall, Thursday night, and presented him a purse of SIOOO to defray some of the ex penses he had incurred. The coroner’s jury in the case of James Hack ett, the pauper who killed himself by jumping from the cars while being taken to the Tewks bury alms-house, have returned a verdict in which, as they ought, they censure the board of directors of public institutions of Boston for sending state paupers on the railroads without placing them in charge of some suitable person, whose sole business it should be to see that they reach their destinaton safely. The testimony shows that when he left Boston, Rackett was calm and apparently rational, al though Policeman Crocker, who took him to the depot, considered it unsafe to leave him without watching; that before he leaped from the train, he had been sitting on the platform of one of the cars; that the train was not stopped, although a brakeman was sent back from the next station to search for him; and that Mr Stevens, who bad him in charge, was in the smoking car playing euchre. Had Stevens and the railroad conductor been censured, as well as the Boston authorities,, the jury would have more completely performed their duty. Not a case of small-pox or varioloid is now known to exist within the city limits of Lowell, and only about 50 patients are now at the hos j pital. I Collector Russell of Boston sailed on Saturday i for Fayal, accompanied by his wile and daugh i ter. He hopes to return early in December in i improved health. I Tremont street, Boston, is to be widened from Park street to Boylston, by adding to it a slice from the Common. A movement has started at Hingham for a plain but massive monument for the late Gov Andrew, whose remains are interred in that town, without a stone to mark the place. Rev. J. C. Lovejoy, well known from his ex pose of the operations of the state constabulary, died suddenly at Cambridgeport, last week, of congestion of the brain. Dr J. J. B. Vermyne of New Bedford has re ceived from Jules Favre the cross of the Legion of Honor for services at Sedan and Bordeaux. The schooner Marv H. Banks, from George town, D. C., for Wareham, went ashore near Nantucket on Sunday. The crew and one lady passenger were saved by a lifeboat. The arrivals of vessels at Boston, during nine months of the present year, exceed those of the same period, last year, by 447, showing a con siderable increase in the foreign commerce of that city. Gilmore’s old coliseum at Boston was a baby I comp Mid with the one he is going to erect at Boston for his big jubilee, next June. The plan contemplates a building 822 feet long by 422 feet broad with a tower 240 feet high rising from the center. The side towers, of which there will be j four, are each 167 feet high. The building, which will cover eight acres, will have seating accom modations for 125,000 people and will be located on the Back bay near the Providence railroad and not far from the foot of Newton street. Mrs Bigelow-Taylor-Montgomery, who married I Walter Montgomery, the aetor, returned to Bos j ton, last Monday, in the Parthia, and is now liv ing with her husband, Arnold W. Taylor, in that i city. ‘‘A gentleman whose scientific attainments have made his name a household word in all lands,” has been investigating the social evil at Boston, and finds that a large proportion of the ‘‘soiled doves” trace their fall to influences that met them in the public schools of that city. The unpleasantness between the new town of Ayer (Groton Junction) and Dr Ayer, the patent medicine man, who named it, is still unremoved. The doctor insists that his gift of SIO,OOO shall be used as a school fund, while the town ungrate fnlly refuses to accept it with this condition, if, indeed, it will with any at all. The Chicago fire has aroused Boston, as well as many other cities, to a realization of the need of a greater supply of water, and they are talk ing of drawing from the Merrimac. But the present city engineer is said to be so incompetent that nothing can be done until a change is made in that office. It is the boast of New Bedford that there is not an open bar in the city, and that every person, rich or poor, who has been found engaged in the liquor Traffic, has been arraigned lor so doing. Mayor Richmond said be would enforce the liquor law, and he has kept his word. It v Thomas Sculley of Cambridge has sued the Boston Herald for $20,000 damages for libel in accusing him of Illegally selling a cemetery at North Bridgewater, while executor of the will of a Catholic clergyman of that place. Eben Trask. Jr., of Beverly, who was recently held for trial for adultery, at Salem, has since married the woman, but having already a wife in New Hampshire, will now be tried for bigamy. The simple expedient of driving down an Iron pipe saved the life of Levi Blanchard, who was burled iu a well at Melrose on Monday It was three hours before be was rescued, but the pipe gave him air to breathe, and he will recover. In spite of the small-pox the Lowell mills are running on full time and with full hands. If any of the girls have been driven away by the epidemic, plenty have come to take their place. All restrictions on public gatherings have now lieen removed, and the disease is regarded as stamped out. The latest manufacturing enterprise at Fall River is a baiting company, of which the capital stock has been all taken up, and a three-story brick building will be built at once for a factory. The American print works company are about to erect another cotton mill near their present mill at Mount Hope village. Nuho as Elcock, William Sullivan, Frank McDonald and Thomas Lally were on Tuesday sentenced to four years each in Dedham jail for robbing the Quincy post-otlice, and James Daly to three years.

Tne store of George Goodnow Co wholesale liquor dealers at Boston, has been regularly and systematically robbed for the last ten months of liquors, groceries, etc., by the porter, Samuel H. Puritan, and a well-known thief named Frank Bean, who have been arrested and held for trial. Puritan confessed that they had for some months supplied three saloons with liquors, and gave the names of the proprietors, who have also been ar rested. The robberies amount to several thou sand dollars. It is proposed to build a narrow guage railroad from Brighton, through Brookline, to Boston. 'Die body ot a young woman named Kafe Lee han was found lying on a sidewalk in Boston, Wednesday morning, showing from its mutilated condition that she had been the victim of a bru tal and probably premeditated murder. A stone weighing 15 or 20 pounds was embedded in her skull, ind near bv lay a stove wrench covered with blood, while'the locality gave evidence of a severe struggle. There were also indications that she had been outraged. She was in company with another young woman during Tuesday evening, from whom she parted at half past 9, after leaving a store where they had met several young men. Patrick Maloney, Daniel Leonard and James Howe have been arrested on suspicion of being the murderers and will be held to await the coroner's investigation. The sad news comes from Paris that the insan i'y of Rtv W. R. Alger of Boston is of a type beyond the hope of cure. The state liquor agency at Boston was very poorly patronized during the year ending with October 1. Only thirty-nine cities and towns bought any liquor there, the other three hundred being able to ‘do better," no doubt. The thirty nine took $58,793 worth, making the sales nearly $100,006 less than the year before, and the ex penses of the concern were $11,124. If Butler had been made governor the agency might have had a good run of business for the ensuing year. As it is, its prospects are not encouraging, and tiie Legislature, when it meets, cannot do a bet ter thing than to shut up the shop. tname. A Mr Hodgkins of Sebec, an old man of 75, committed suicide, Friday night. The barn of Mr Hodgdon ot Benton was burned on Friday, and after the fire was extinguished the remains of his little child, four years old, were found in the ruins.

New Hampshire. J. S. Tufts Co.’s earthenware manufactory at Keene was totally destroyed, early Sunday morning, by a fire, supposed to .be incendiary; loss not less than S4OOO, insured for SIOOO. On Sunday afternoon another alarm was caused by the leaves and brush in a grove in the outskirts of the village taking fire, but the flames were promptlv subdued. Ou Monday, the American house in the same place was found to be on fire in an upper room, but prompt discovery prevent ed much damage. The fire was burning in a bundle of clothes iu a closet, and must have been incendiary. The furniture of the room and some clothing were burned, besides which there was some damage by water. The New Hampshire Orphan’s Home, located on the Webster farm in Franklin, was dedicated on Thursday. Addresses were delivered by Gov Weston, Senator Patterson, Prof Sanborn of Dartmouth college, Judge Nesmith, president of the corporation and others.

Hills of Keene has been nominated for register of probate for Cheshire county. The soldiers’ monument which was recently dedicated at Keene was designed by Martin Mil more of Boston, and cast by the Ames manufac turing company of Chicopee. It is a bronze soldier, eight feet high, with his musket resting on the ground and supported by the right hand. The dress is that of a soldier in the late war, in cluding the overcoat, which prevents any appear ance of stiffness. The pedestal is of Roxbury granite. Vermont. N. C. Tabor’s barn in East Montpelier Wa3 burned on Saturday, with a quantity of hay and grain and a pair of horses; loss S2OOO, small in stirance. E. S. Dwinel's trotting horse “Happy John,” valued at SIOOO, was burned to death, as was a S4OO mare owned by C. S. Page of Morris ville. The fire was incendiary. The nostmaster at North Bennington was somewhat embarrassed, the other day, on being asked by a lady if there was a letter for “my cow." Being disposed to treat her politely, he replied that there was nothing for anybody’s cow. The lady, being equally embarrassed and also dispos ed to be polite, said she inquired for Mike Howe.

Cool ey, employes at a Norwich llt’ery stable, had a trilling dispute on Sunday about hitching up a team, and, about an hour afterward, while Cool ev lav in a wagon reading, Montgomery hit him on the temple, killing him instantly. Montgom erv became greatly agitated on learning that be had killed Cooley, and gave himself up to the po lice. Mrs Ryder of Norwalk is on trial before the su perior court at Bridgeport, charged with causing the death of Mrs Martha A. Stone, by an attempt to procure an abortion. It is announced that the Boston, Elartford and Erie railroad will be completed as far as Willi mantic, Ct., in four weeks. The trustees are hav ing all portions of the road which are in need of repairs attended to, and new bridges are rapidly taking the place of old ones. Two new locomo tives have been purchased, and all these improve ments are paid for out of the earnings of the road. The daring and successful robbers who operated at Woodbury on Thursday night seem to have pretty much cleaned out the town. From the safe of Curtiss Sons at Pomeraug they took $27,000 in town bonds, SIO,OOO in notes and about SISOO in currency. The loss of F. A. Walker Co., who were tiurglarixcd at the same time, is not exactly known, since books and memoranda form a part of the robbers’ plunder, but it is probably $20,000, only a small portion of which is of any use to the thieves. Mr Walker is town treasurer, and the stolen property includes town papers and money, besides a large number of pri vate deposits. No clew to the robbers has yet been found. The case of Eben Whittaker, who was assault ed, robbed and almost murdered, near Meriden, on Saturday night, excites much sympathy. Whittaker bad been paid off that afternoon and was returning from Wallingford, where he work ed, to bis home in Meriden, when the assault took place. He was horribly mauled, bis skull being broken in at least two places, while he re ceived as many as a dozen ugly gashes. On Sunday night he was alive bnt the chances of his recovery were small.

Berry of Pawtucket for SIO,OOO dam ages for breach of promise of marriage and se duction, and two Stonington men became his bondsmen to the tune of SIO,OOO. An attempt being made to arrest him, a few days ago, for procuring an abortion upon the girl at the hands of a Providence quack, he fled by scaling a back fence, and has not since been heard from. The 25th annual meeiing of the American mis sionary association began at Hartford on Tues day. The report of the secretary of the execu tive committee gave an encouraging report of the work of the society during the past year, especially among the freedmen of the South. The total receipts of the year were $430,000, of which $75,000 was in endowment funds. Jennie Gaylord, a little girl at Terryville, was killed, a few days ago, by a large cupboard fall ing upon her, and her father was rendered so nearly frantic by the event that he attempted sui cide. That child of misfortune, the Air Line railroad, has received another blow by the town of Mid dlefield refusing to furnish its proportionate aid, and thus canceling the conditional obligations of the other towns. New Preston recently had a rousing meeting in favor of a railroad from that village to New Milford, and committees are soliciting subscrip tions in the villages along the route. When $75,000 is pledged, a company will be formed. While a gas-fitter was searching for a leak in a tailor-shop in the basement of a house in New Haven, last week, there was a sudden explosion, which tore down one side of the basement, de molished the counter and two sewine machines, and started the tailor on an aerial flight, which was interrupted by the ceiling. The cause of the explosion is a mystery, but an alarmist suggests that it was due to the contact of fire with the ac cumulation of sulphuretted hydogen gas gener ated by the filth of sewers coming in contact with the sea water; that the sewers ate full of it, and that the city is liable to go up at any moment. A well known justice of the peace subscribed $5 to the relief fund, yesterday, and returning to his office immediately, received the amount for marrying a couple. Thus is virtue rewarded. Another man was requested to contribute, but declined, and within two hours heard that his mother-in-law had come to stay a month with him.
