The trial will occupy weeks yet, and
when done the public will be in thevprecise
position they were at the outset; for the
jury will never agree in the world. Plym-
outh church will accept it as an acquittal,
and the people outside will remain divided
in opinion as they are now. Nothing will
come of it.
BLOOD. ,
Some years ago it‘was given out by medi- t
cal authorities thatrconsum'ption, in certain
stages, could be cured by drinking warm
blood from the ox. This treatment was
urged toreu ,gpnlyi‘consumplives, butfor'all
cases of “weakness “and "general debility.
Over two hundred people visit the slaugh-
ter-houses in this,city daily for this'pur—
pose. They hold their glasses so as to
catch the stream as it flows hot from the
dying Eouimal,’an'i] drink it steaming as it
is. I ventured to taste it, and did not find
it suburbia; had supposed, . It tastes some-
thing like: new milk, with a slightly ssltish

these gentlemen an opportunity to try

the condition“ ‘of- the~business. The carry-
ing trade has dropped a. full half in quan-
tity, and revenue, and the passenger trade is
even 'worse. One- prominent president,
who is a very level-headed man, made the
assertion yesterday that unless some change
took-place very 'soou every railroad west of
Bufi‘alo would be'bankrupt before midsum-

for, this prophecy or not, one thing is cer-

the managers are very despoudent.-
LIFE IN THE GREAT CITY.
Despit e hard times, New York is very
gorgeou s winter. The turn-outs on the
Avenue and in the Park are as brilliant as
ever, and even more so. Sales of extrava-
gantly costlyfurniture are as freQuent as
ever, and the great jewelers and expensive
dress people‘ure doing more the ' eir usu-
al business. ‘ Lfl‘he'factist.thc soc t. woman

' DRY GOODS nostmsss
The late seasons have nearlybeen the
ruin of the ispring’trade for the last two
veers, running it close upon the summer.
Therehas been the usual slight advance of
prices, common at the very opening of the
season, and the few early buyers who are
after the worm, merely look round and
, price goods, anticipating that figures will
be lower in a short time. A member of
one of'jhede‘adin‘g houses here. confessed
to-dayg-vit, was incl, use to denythat trade
was .‘going‘ beyond New York :to the West.
It is useless to expect this city longer to
hold theposition of the metropolis of trade.
The country is'too large for it. Chicago
and St. Louis form centres for their section
of the country, and the lake ports nearer
the seaboard hold their own, and are get-
ting more tohold every year. It is thought
that after the steady-cold of the winter,
spring will open early, and this year’s trade
ll a genuine advance on the last '
. flaunt exam-rt BALL @-
this season was distinguished by the most
superb dressing and greatest display of
fewels at anyof these popular ,bslls since
they were instituted. Good society had a.
dread that the attendance of “the charity”
was too promiscuous for fashionable sus-
ceptibilities, and an efi'ortwvas made to
rescue it from the hands of those who wish-
ed,'by their presence on this occasion, to
. push themselves into society. Aecordingly,
the dresses were magnificent, and the at-
tendance of the best families all that could
be desired, although comments.ere made
on. the presence of several actresses, whose
success condones their notoriety. Mrs.
Rousby,.the English actress, celebrated for
her'beauty, was much noticed in a white
satin dress with several yardslof train,
which her attendant had some ado toJmep
clear of. The dresseswere of the richest
description, velvet and heavy silk, or vel'
.vet rind satin, with overdress of point or .of
ailver.lace,l:ioped up with a‘profusiouof
flowers-apple blossoms and briar roses,
pondlilies, snowballs and geraniums, roses
injfull bloom; eagles; _1_ili,'es‘ “of the‘valley,
and fuchias—till..all. the, seasons seemed to
have 'lent- 'vtb'eir' T, centribu-tiOns -. to‘sthe ball.
The loveliest"dresses o'f—‘all were cream-
colored silks, embroidered all over like su-'
perbidanfa‘sk, or with rich. lace insertion in
stripes. 'Rich'iwhite silks were worn by
ladies of every age, instead of the deep
regulation colors set apart for dowagers.
The youngladies, for‘the most part, were
white or'pin ' tulle and gauze, w'hile young
matron's displayed a certain daring in colors,
wearing ‘ pale-green .and poppies together,
black,‘:satin' and fiery overskirt-and trim-
miags, white * satin with black velvet
fiounces, buff and scarlet satin, pale salmon

are acknosvledged by the handsome tribute
of $250,000 worth" of
citizen of this state ever had a warmer
place in the affection of the masses of the
people than Governor Buckingham. His
uprightness of life, his dignified and gentle-
manly beari , his ardent patriotism, his
long term 0 faithful service during the
feverish and doubtful days of the Union
struggle, all combined to strengthen his
hold upon the hearts of his fellow-citizens.
And so it was with the soldiers from this
state. He manifested a personal interest in-
terest in every regiment, laboring to secure
to each everything necessary for its efil-
cicncy and comfort. His name is sure to
be mentioned in every soldier reunion, and
it is always greeted with the warmest dem-
onstrations of love and regard. And this
was no mere sentimentalism,‘ but a deserv-
ed tribute to the great worth of the man.
His life Was a successful one, made so
not by any brilliancy of genius, but by his
practical common-sense, his energy, and his
devotion to duty. In this age of feverish
speculation and of rapidly accumulated
fortunes, young men are apt to lose sight of
.the value of personal probity and of purity
of lif'c. . To'acquii'e wealth, no matter how,
has become the great aim in life with many,
uninindful that wealth secured- at the cost
of integrity and self-respect and expended
f' more sensual enjoyment is the most nu-
[fifitahle of possessions.
"‘ Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey,
,Whe'l'c wealth accumulates, and mcll decay.”
i’l‘lie worth of a man’s life is chiefly in its
influence, both upon his fellow men while
living, and the influehceof his example afi
tél'. his» death. No man is so'humble but
that be,‘cau exert some influence for good,
a’ntl in proportion to his greatness may to
the value of his example That is a wasted
lite. however, crowded with ,pleasurrs
afud liOliors,Whicll leaves behind it annu-
holy influence. Manyh‘onors were bestow-
ed upon the 11.11 whom the state now
mourns; few of her cilizensha‘ve cvcrbeen
so highly distinguished. Bill the crowning
honor of his life, its elicicest memory, is
teaching to futtig're, generations the value of
integrity and purity of character, and a
:eonscientious devotion to.duty. A life
above fear and above reproach. ,

, Funeral of Senator Buckingham.
Nonwrcu, February.9.—The funeral of
Senator Buckingham, t‘o-day, was the occa-
sion of an 'immense outpouring of the peo-
ple ofLebanon,‘ the town of his birth. The
cities of Hartford, New Haven, and New
London. thé'State government and Senate
of the United States were represented by
large official and private delegations, and
the city was full to over-flowing with peo-
ple from the surrounding towns, who came
in notwithstanding the intensely cold
weather. Among‘the visitors were Sena-
tors Hamlin, Sherman, Fcnton, Washburn‘
and Stevenson, and Senator-elect Eaton and,
Congressman I-Iawley, Postmaster-General
Jewell, Goveruofi’ugersoll and stafi,Ex-
GovernOi; English, President Porter of Yale
college, and Sergeant-at-Arms French, of
the United States Senate.
The remains of thef‘Senator lay in state
at his residence during the morning, and
were visitedby large throngs. There was
a private service at his late residence, and
at one o’clock the casket and a party of the
viSltors were moved' to Broadway church
through the streets, along which the build-
ings were draped in mourning, with flags
at half-mast. The services at the church
were conducted by Revs. Mr. Merriam and
Dl‘S. Arms and Bond, of the Congregational
church, and Rev. Dr. Gresy, of the Episco-
pal church. The, church was heavily
draped and the services were verjjmpres-
sive. At the grave the Episcopal service
was read by Dr. Gresy.
Business was suspended in the city-dun
ing the afternoon, and the inhabitants all
united by their presence at the services and
by their public expression 'of .s'orrow to
show their respect for the memory of the
deceased. The pall bearers were Col-E.
. Selden‘, who .was' for three years Buck-
'ingham?s military secretary, H. B. Norton,,
_A. W. Prentice and B. W. Tompkins, large
~manpthcturers and intimate personal frienrls
’of the late SenatOr. The bea‘rersof the
"casket were on the staff of Senator Buck-
ingham during the war. ,They were as fol-
,ows: Col. H. H. Osgood,Qol. W. Fitch,
Gen. Gorse, Colonel Thomas Fitch, Colonel
Watson and Colonel Bond.
Anovn THE CLoUns."—The' 'rc’eent eclipse
f the moon,as viewed by a party of tourists
above the clouds, on one of the mountain
peaks of Nevada, had some peculiar fea-
ures about it which were not vouchsafed
.to less fortunately Elaced spectators. The
party left Virginia ity early in the even-
ing, and» preSsing anard through falling
snow and p dense cloud-mass, they reached
the ,,topmo§t peak .and stood ”above be
clouds and storm. Above, the moon 8 one
in full splendor‘and the stars :twiukled
brightly. As the moon began to enter the'
penumbra there were wonderful and end-
den changes in all that surrounded the
party. The sea. of clouds about them,
which before hads‘own only the tints of
.the pearl, now-too on the hue.,of amber,
butstill floated on and swayed up and
"down as had the sea. of peril. As the ob-
scuration progressed, the more distant por-
tions of the cloud-sea changed ill line from
amber to brown, and this to black, gradu-
ally closing in upon the party from all
sides. In their immediate vicinity :all had
changedfrom amber t6 :1 deep burnt sienna
tinge. So deep was this-tint that at one
time it seemed ,0 pervade the atmosphere.
During this 5‘s a heavy breeze sprang up,
and the swells in the sea rose in higher
waves than before. Ag times these rose
many t above the he ds of the party, and
whe . e eclipse was nearly total they were
sometimes fogmiuutcs left in midnight
darkness, and but for their lanterns they
could not have seen their hands held before
their faces. But these‘ waves of darkness
seldom lasted more than two or three min-
utes, and the party had, from first to last, a
most magnificent view of the eclipse. It is
probable thata total eclipse of the moon
has never before been observed under pre-
cisely such circumstances as was this by
the party of tourists, who describe it as One ,
‘of the grandest sights ever witnessed by
mortals. .

Sleeping Together.
More quarrels occur between brothel-s, be.
tween sisters, between hired girls, between
clelks in stores, between apprentices in me-
chanic’s shops, between hired , between
husbands and wives, owing to electrical
changes through which theil'nervous systems
go, by lodging together night after night
under the same bedplothcs, than by almost
any other disturbing cause. There is noth-
ing that will so derange the nervous system
of a, person who is eliminative in nervous
force, as to lie all night in bed with another
person who is absorbent in nervous force.
The absorber will go to sleep and rest all
night. while the eliminator will be tumbling
and tossing, restless and nervous, and wake
up in the morning fretfbl,pcevisb, fault-find-
ing and discouraged. No two persons, no
matter who they are, should habitually
sleep together. One will thrive and the
other will lose. This is the law, and in mar-
ried life it is defied almost universally.

HER—I go into a sculptor’s studio, and see.
him shaping a statue. He has a chisel in

I say, “Why dOn’t you strike harder?”
"Ob,” he replies, “it would shatter the

A DOG Emma—Here is a true and curious
dog story. The other evening a reporter for
the Gaulozs was going home late at night in
the midst of most horrible weather, when he
overtook a drunken luau trying to climb the
Rue de Rome. He was followed by 11 mon-
grel cur, who kept at his heels and seemed
man stepped, and the dog began to bite at
his legs. “ Let me alone, will you ?” cried
the druukard. ' “ I’m going on after a rest,”
but the dog continued to tug at his trowscrs.
The reporter stopped to see the end of this
curious scene. “. There, there i" cried the
man at length. " I'm going on. You’ll tear
the breechcs 011‘ me." He started, and the
dog trotted at his heels. After a few yards
the (ll'tlnkill‘ll again shipped, and, the same
scene occurred, the dog growling and snap-
ping until his master began to go forward.
The reporler went a mile out of his way to
see this intelligent dog take his master home,
and saw him wag his tall with evident sat-
is action as the drunkai'd reeled over his
