An old gentleman named Hutchings, who lives in Hudson, N. Y., was at ray house the other evening. Hewas full of reminiseence of the past of our village, and told Many interesting stories. One of them I have thought best to preserve in this colamn, as a picture of a phase of tannin weakness that is not, I mil than kin) to says common . The time of the incident was the • buildiug of our mill -dad, sonie 20 years ago. A man named. Ferguson lived then in Perkinstown, on the route. He was a farmer ancl owned. a piece of land in a ravine through whichthe road was to •run. This piece was -so situated that the -company could not avoid crossing it with their line, unless making a turn at, very great expense. There was searee- ly a half acre in the piece, and it was a mass of rocks. R might have been • -Werth to the company about forty dol- lars. • If any one else had offered twen- ty-five dollars for it, the Perkinstowners -would Inise thought -that he was going • to put, up au asylum •for the iueane- and stock it himself. The commissioner who Was instruct- ed to deal with Mr. Ferguson; made • him the liberal offer of 150 for the land.' Mr. Ferguson declined it. He had his own- ideas of the matter. Railroads were not common. They did not even , come once a year, and it was very rea- sonable teabelieve that another would not take in-Perkinsowu during Mr. Fer- guson's life time. It was his idea to make the most of this one. - Mr. Ferguson said, he would see the comnaiisioner tha next day. He wanted to sleep ou the matter over night. • But ha didn't sleep much that night. Mrs. Ferguson was dead. She had been dead a couple of years or thereabouts. She had been a aickly woman for the last years of her life, and not exactly a help meet to :Mr. Fergusen, who had been obliged to hire a woman to do the -work that would have otherwise been done by the late lamented. 11-11. Fer- guson fell to thinking of that while brooches over the railroad matter, and looking,out of his kitchen window upon the clump of peasili trees beneath which repd •ed his dead wife. The ieault of his ruminations was that "flLrt14a would a' done better if she'd had t e chance; but she wasn't able." Ile 1 elieved tha,t an opportunity for her to b useful had now arrived, and knowin well .her willing disposi- tion he felt it would .be . a downright t favor to her to -put her in the way of using the ch nce. • Thatuigh , withethe aid of his hired man, he dub her u and tranSplanted heron the r cky bit, of land in the ra- • vine. Then he wa,sc •eady for the com- missioner ashen that individual ap- peared. _ ha He told the commissioner that he had been thinki a g of the matter very care- fully; weigh d all the phases of it, and he had coin to the conclusion that 'he could not gi e up that piece -of laud 14 less than a t ousaud dollars. . The shock was so great to the cern-. missiencr that he fell over in his chair, and the plac where his head strubk the door jai b was shown for years af- ter. When ie got his feet and his breath, be t Id Mr. Ferguson "",tharstlie demand was preposterous, tltst:the coin- . • pany would ot entertain it fOr an in: stant, that 50 was a AsmuendOus price for the pieta. • "I Omit," said Mr. Fergnson, gently, "thatsfifty d liars is a good price for aon ordinary piece of land like that, but this is a fa.5: (Merest case. That is a private graveyard, and that makes a great dif- ference." "A ttraveyard ! What's buried there?" Untidy iuquired the incredulous corn- MiSSiener. "My wife, air," gravely auswered Mr. Ferguson. "i ly late lamented a,ud dear- ly beloved we lies resting there, aud Mr. Pergusoi wiped from his eyes a moisture tha did credit to his heart. "My long-su ering Wifee rfernains re- pose in that •pos. • • "Wil I d'd not kuow that," said the • somesahat be vildered railroad man. " "It 4 a fac , sir. I laid- her in that retire spot ecause she lovetheit so • min:1Q 1 -ler last words to me were, 'Hushimd, bu .y me there!' I did. Her -wish Oas sac ed to me. That spot is sacred to me. The railroad. cannot run over tier poor body. should have to move her if the company take the land. It is not a pleasant •matter to disturb the dead. Yu are a husband your- self, perhap . You can understand • this, sir." The cumin ssioner said he was not prepared to deal with the questiou in this new 1 ght, and would have to consult the c inpany ; with that he re- tired. • Before negt biations were renewed the affair came to the knowledge of the neighbers, an they started up such an •uproar about Mr. i'engusou's case, that that bereaved man Wok up his we and put her ack under the.peach trees without chart ing She railroad company a cent. And yet wl en they came to settle for the laud„ that ungrateful company would not allow him .buteV30 for it, and he had to take it.. Truly, corporatious have no souls.— • • Danbury ,Running Against a Post. J. remember gains into the depot at ' New Haven a number .of years ago— the old depot, where the trains ran in under grouud, and, the refreshment room •wae•up Stairs—just as the express train arrived, from Boston, aud the passengers had. hurried up to gorge themselves in the "teu minutes allow- ed." As I got opposite the door of - the: refreshment loom, a bell on a. wander- , ing loe nnotiv.* down stairs was ,•runs. Au elderly pi grim, in a' camlet cloak ; and stove -pip hat, who had jut got two manses i Due hand amiss quarters section of squash pie in the other, evi- dentlymistot k the bell,for the signal of . his train's al -partnre„ and came flying out as iflieh Ten feet froi His oran nes Hishat fell id been fired out of a, gnu. the door he struck a post. ropped and rolled ;away. , aud as he made a dash. to hold his cl ak on, he -fired the pie, a hopeless wrec c, into a corner. Then he pulled. himself 'together, secured his cloak, eliaseOis hat, gathered up his oranges, ancl-lked for his pie. He had evidently doted on the pie. He consid- ered it a sures well as a soft thing. He was the pi tun) of misery till his eye fell. on the wr T•k of it, and then he_ brightetied up ; a smile like that of Dores waliac Mg Jew taking off "his' boots at -the $ .und of the, last trump1. -spread over hi face. I could see that he felt relies -ed; that he had got the pie off his mind. The pie, at least, was as- secure. He didn't lose the train, nor his oranges, nor his cloak, nor his hat. It seemed tomehe would have been happier if he had lost them all • it would have been, just so much respon- sibility throwu off, and then he eduld have sat down and got rested -and taken a. fresh start in life. I: often think of that pilgrim when I see a fellow who thinks be has got a soft thing. First thing he knows he rims against a ,,post, and while he is clawing atoll:11CW save his cloak or his oranges, the sure thing" has -gone to pieces like the squash pie in the corner. Theu, if h philosopher,- he smiles at the t ought that so much, at least, is off his mind. A Blchelor's View of It. Man that is married, to a woman is of many days and full -of -trouble. In the morning he draweth his salary, and in the evening behold it is all goue. It is as a tale that iT-r Vold, -it vanisheth and " no one .knowetla whither it gooth. He riseth up clothed in the chilly garments of the night, and seeketh the somnolent paregoric wherewitli to sooth the colicky bowels of his infant posterity. He be-: cometh as the horse: or the ox, and draweth the chariot of his off -spring. He epend.eth his shekels in ',the pur- chase of fiue linen to cover the bosom of his family, yet himself is seen in the gates of thecity with but one suspender. :Yea, he is altogether wretched. • . A Conundrum. Shall a husband keep his ,wife in- formed of his business affairs? This is • a disputed question as a matter of theory, while as a matter of .fact it is often determined by the character- of the wife. Some women insist upon knowing' all about the affairs of their husbands, while others axle as persistent in treating them with entire indiffer- ence. As a matter of theory, it seems to us that the more thoroughly a wife keeps herself informed of her husband's huedness condition and Conduct the bet- ter it is for both. It is better for him, because a woman's moral sense is Often a wholesome corrective of business prac- tices, and her perspective is always bet- ter. it is better for her, because it gives her a -new field of thought, and enlightens her natural impulses •,ancl feelings by the practical considerations of every day life. It. does not make her less womanly, but now and then it may make .her more sensible. Blind Tom at Home. Blind Tom when at home, in Geor- gia, lives in a building about 200 yards from the house, and there remains alone with his piano, playing all' day and night, like oue possesaed with mad- ness. Bad weather hasilan effect upon his music. -In cloudy, ilainy seasons he plays sombre music in minor-- chord; " and when the sun shines and -the birds sing,- he indulges in waltzes and light music. Sometimes he will hamrner away for hours, producing the most horrible discord imaginable. Suddenly a change comes over him, and he in- dulges in, magnificent bursts of har- mony, taken from the best productions of the masters. Since his.chilclhood he has been =Idiot, and he plded nearly. as well at the age of seven as he does nOssvs but now his repertoire is • much farger, as he cau • play anything he has ever heard. He nos plays about seven thousand pieces, and picks up new ones everywhere. It is a curious fact that he will not play Sunday Scshool in-usic if he can help it, having a great dislike for it. • _ General News 'terns. p.

The father allowed no intercourse what- ever with the neighbors. His only means'ef livelihood. was catching stray dogs, which he would kill and boil, and render the fat. _ He compelled the chil- dren to live ou the meat of the dogs. The girls are now in charge of the so- ciety for the prevention of cruelty' to children. —A well -to do farmer called at the county poor house in Troy on Monday, and after explaining that his wife had (lied two years before, and that he Lad found it difficult_ t6 get- along iu "'his household, iufc.n•med. Keeper 0 'Sullivan that if he could•find a woman in the county house who would suit him he would marry her, Mr. O'Sullivan went into the womap's apartment, and choos- ing the best woman there took her out for inspection. The- stranger looked at her in a business way, asked her if she would look after his house, and at the same time informed her that in case he thought. they could agree he would marry her.' The woman did not seem to be overjoyed at the prospect of be- coming a bride, but agreed to the pro- position made_ to her. The man went off saying that he would return again _ in the morning and take the woman away.- He kept his word and_ the pair went to Albany. --"-Heury Legraw, a commercial trav- eller, has brought an action at Brook- - lyn against James Rowan, grain mer- chant, to. recover • $20,000- for alleged alienation of his w'fe.

He sexpects it to terminate just below II city, and as a consequence of its con- • struction he expects Detroit to become a really great commercial inetropolis. The Detroit River is to - become the Clyde of the West in boat and ship- building, and the prolific crops of the West are to reach Europe by the St. Lawrence. a route 600 miles shorter than by the precut route via New York. He predicts th. at after ages will not think him the fool that many people do now. • ' the neighborhood of Deadwood, Dakota, for several Weeks, ranchrnen in hordes have been greatly hara,sSecl by a baud of robbers. robbing houses and stealing -large herds of cattle. The ranclnnen beeameexasperated, and formed a party of 60 well armed _ and. mounted men, who started iu pursuit, and struck their trail near the Little Missouri, finally reaehing the roost of the robbers in a deep ravine of Wolf Mountain, where the outlaw's, eight in. number, were surprised and. killed be- fore an opportunity was given them to return a shot.

Y., and reported a shocking case of destitntioa existing in a two -Story tenerneut house on Troy Avenue. A captain repaired to the place without delay. On the slats of the -bed, devoid of all clothes, lay a drunken ma,u, one Daniel "Rielly, aged 40 years, a laborer. In a chair near by sat Jane Rielly in an unconscious con- dition, and in the throes of premature labor. In a corner of the wretched room, which was devoid of a spark of fire, crouched few, children, whose ages ranged from three years to nine. They had barely Sufficient clothes upon their little shivering bodies to cover their nakednesse Not a crumb of food of any kind was found inethe place.

The invention pro- mises to be a greatconvenience to in- valids, is exceedingly .sirnple, and will be within the reach of all to procure it. One part of it pertains to the boiling of water, midis so constructed, that this can be accomplished. in a very short spaceof tithe. Another -part pertains to the heating of food, so that a plate of toast, or other eatables; a bowl of gruel, or other drinks, can be kept warm as long as desired. There is also a drier attached, by which stnall clothes can be dried - \alien required. The whole is made to Suit any size of lamp the family has in-nse ; and it does not interfere with the giving of light, so that au extra, lamp is dispensed with. We wish Mr. Johnston may reap the reward of his ingenuity and labor, for the benefit of the public. —On -Monday morning of last week some school children were considerably frightened by discovering the body of a dead man in the privy belonging to Robb's, schoolhouse in the Gore of Downie. The children at once told the Trustees, and they in turn notified. the Coroner. However, as there were n� marks on the body that would indicate violence, the Coroner did not deem it necessary to hold an iuquest. The deceased.: was an aged man with a lame leg, andshad been confined in the Strat- ford lock-up on the previous Friday. night. At that time he said he was from Hamilton, hut -• owing to some difficulty in speaking, the police did not understand what his name was.

A man and woman came after her professionally in a closed hack. She reluetantly accompanied. them, as they were strangers. When in the haek ,they blindfolded her, and after a round -about drive, she was taken to a room, is -hen the bandage was re- moved from. her eyes, and she found herself at the bedside of a young lady. The accouchment was safely effected, when the man pulled a. pistol from his pocket and -threatened to shoot the mid- wife if she did not killthe living child. In answer to his repeated threats, she said "He could kill her, but she would not commit such a hideous critne." In his desperation the man grasped the ohild and plunged it into" a .boiler ,of scalding water. He. then blindfolded the rnidwife,,and hurried her away in a hack to her home.
