’1 '11: Doom of Speculators.
ORANGE, N. J., Nov. 7th, 1873.
DEAR GAZETTE :——Many of the first-class
residences of Orange are equipped with a
burglar alarm. My neighbor on the north
has one that takes in the windows and
doors of his barn. But even this faithful
sentinel is not wholly reliable. One large
house (our burglars like large houses,) has
been successfully dc-silvered twice, since it
was fitted outwith the wires, cups and '
bells. Once :1 loge pane of glass was per-
t‘oraled by the tar and paper process, which _
is a way they have to “save the pieces" from
- marten-tale rattler—and QIICCfiWCll, it has
been a standing joke on ”flicfowlier .for-sev-
oral months, and I would not dare tell it, if
I thought he would ever read this letter. A
finely dressed gentleman called to see the
operation of his new alarm. He was. just
erecting a house for himself, and desired to
introduce the latest improvements, etc. Mr.
B. was only too happy to exhibit his ma-
chine, with all its connections, and while
passing a. small window in his back hall,
incidentally remarked that that was the only
window without the attachment. Need the
rest be told? The burglar learned all he
wanted—thanked Mr. B. for his kind atten-
tions, and. left, to enter again that some
night through that buck-lull window, and
to he]p_:hi_lliidlf to all ”the jt‘re‘aluré. be use.

“Aleph B. Gimmci ” relates in a late is-

his marvelous experience with a district

into purchasing. He says: The Modern

is one of the most benefieilent enterprises of
our age, and we hope that many may be
found eager to accept the privileges con-
ferred. Copies of the Rules and Regula-
tions may be seen at our office, and a full~
knowledge of all requirements learned
therefrom, for all of which we are indebted
to Mrs. Lewis J. Curtis. It would seem
thata good and true woman, so circum-
stanced as to be ablmto accept the generous
offer here made, would most eagerly espouse
it as her noblest mission on earth. ‘
DuAn MADAlr:—Mrs. Hubbard, the Pre-
sident of the New Haven branch of the W.
B. M. thinks that Imay venture to put be-
fore you a subject in which many of the
ladies of the State take an interest, namely,
the training of nurses for the care of the
sick. We have established in the State
Hospital here a school for’this purpose. A
lady thoroughly taught in the matter is in
charge, and the physicians and surgeons, of
New Haven give instructions. . _

About the year 1800 Thomas Weill lived
there; he was a former, a prudent, saving

girls made Well-town an attractive place;

He was invited to Wollstown, numb... the

and at once made known to Miss Wells that
he had not forgotten her, and‘bud come e'x-

her back to Massachusetts as his wife. Here
was a dilemma. The truth was she loved
him best, and she told her father so at once,
and sought counsel and advice from him.

and. it was finally agreed, without her know.

should be informed llow matters stood, and‘

The Sun gives,th‘e following, which will
no doubt interest .macy of the Ex-Mayor’s
old friends hereabouts: ’
“ Yesterday Judge Neilson of the City
Court, Brooklyn. rendered his decision on
he application to continuo_thc‘breoch of
promise suit against the late Martin Kalb-
a-o
nelson ' against the estate. The nest-ion
whether an act of this nature wow and by
.tbe death of either litigant was in this State
undecided. For this reason the suit of Mrs.
‘Mury Wade has attracted attention. The
arguments were heard, and the Judge rc-
served his decision, pending a careful ex-
amination of the papers. Owing to a press
of court business, the decision was not
reached until yesterday. By it the applica-
gtion ill-denied. The history of the-case is
briefly as follows: .
Martin Kalbfleiuch, than Ma or of Brook-
"lyn,’ met in social life Mrs. ary Wade,a
;.fascinuting widow. The acquaintance ri -
fgned into love and a promise to ma . e
.worc‘her picture in a locket attache to big
watch chain, and was proud of showing it.
Opposition to the match was made by the
Mayor’s children, who thought the woman
was not worthy of him. Anonymous let-
ters attacking her reputation were daily re-
ceived :l: him. That they emanated from
the chii ren is nouk’now‘m. At first no at-
tention was paid to them, but their charges
could not belong unnoticed. .
Stimulated b' one of these letters, the
'Mayor at long made some inquiries and
,indignantly broke the engagement. A
breach of promise suit followed. It was
delayed by various causes, and at last
stopped by the sudden death of the defend-
ant. The case was supposed then 'to have
been beyond the reach of courts, but the
lawyers desiring to test the case moved for,
a. continuance against the estate.
Mr. Norton, counsel for Mrs. Wadb, con-
parlor, “Dd unrolled 0V” the 50f“ and 093’ tended that at! marriage is 00““ contract, The counsel for the defence taking this
and the defendant havmg in his answer ad
mitted the making of the contract, there-
fore the [action should survive. He said
it was the only case of the kind in the
books. In all the awareness quoted by
the d'efence’which were decided adversely
to the plaintiffs .the defendants had denied
the making of the contract, while in this
case the making of the contract was ad-
bound, we all came to see what could be mitted, and “10 defendant duly 30““ ‘0 succeedin establishing o'com'plete history of

A correspondent of the Boston Journal
gives an encouraging account of the cotton
and woollen manufactories at Lewiston
Maine. There are in Lewiston ten cotton
mills, running 250,000 spindles (shortly to be
increased to 800,000), and five woollen mills,
with twenty sets of woollen machinery.
Thirty-five thousand bales of cotton are Ell!
nually used. The working force of the cot-
ton mills is about 7,500 men and women, to
whom $6,000,000ia annually disbursed for
wages. There are annually produced 35-
000,000 yards of cotton and woolen goods,
and 8,000,000 grain bags. The annual value
of the manufactured product of the city is
$11,000,000. The mills of Lewiston are
chiefly owned by heavy capitalists of B05.
ton. Since 1857 not a spindle in Lewistou
has stopped because of financial embarrass-
ments. Now all of the 250,000 spindles in
that city are running as usual, with no
knowledge on the part of the managing
agents, who are in almost daily correspond-
ence with their chiefs, thatany stoppage or
curtailment is meditated. The woollen mills
are doing nearly their usual amount ofwork.

The most important case' on the docket
for the November Term of the Superior
Court is the suit of the Colvocoresses estate
against the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance
Company of this city for the payment of
two policies of $10,000 each in that com-
pany. The counsel who;wiil appear on
either side in this case include for the estate
Gov. Ingersoll 'of New Haven, and the
Woodrufi‘ brothers and E. A. Seymour of
Litchfield; for the Company Hon. R. D. Hub-
bard of this city, Judge'McCurdy of Lyme,
Judge Foster of BOslon,'and H. B. Graves
of Litchfield. The counsel for the defence
have been hard at. work for s0me months
preparing the evidence to make good their
claim. that Capt. Colvocoresses committed
suicide. They have an immense amount of
evidence substantiating this claim, but_rely

premium on $175,000 (the total of hls in-

small proportion of the amount due. It
appears that upon the memorandum made
by the Captain, was a. minute of a certain
amount of Connecticut Valley Railroad
bonds, 12 in all, which he claimed to have.

is said that they have traced every bond,
from the time it left: the office of the railroad
company up to its present holder, and that
not one of these Connecticut Valley bonds
ever found its way into Captain Colvoeo-
resses possession at any time. Should they

that none of them ever got into Captain C’s'
they will have brought out one of the most
remarkable pieces of evidence ever known.
The suit has already cost the defence a
large sum of money, but as this is a test
case, the other companies will share with
the Phoenix the expense—Hartford Poet.
