cy. Russia, whencellififfpplies are also
drawn, does not seem •to be in a position
to export more wheat than last year, so
that everything favors an exportation
from the United. States fully as great as
that of 1873, or about forty-five million
bushels. The present iow price of wheat

will also stimulate, exportation by bring

Tth KIDNAPPING CASE. The New
York Herald of Monday published a let
ter from Goshen, Grange county,N. York,
stating that there was 'great' excitement
ih that villag over the supposed discovery
of Charlie Ross, the child kidnapped July
Ist froth Philadelphia. It isalleged that
a priestnamedFather Kenny had rescued
this child' from a woman in Cuba, who
bad probably stolen him, and he brought
him to Goshen and put him in the charge
of a wealthy family named Haight. Sher
iff Hoyt, of Goshen, took the matter in
hand, saw the child; and conversed with
it, learning that'"his• name was Charlie
and he paw from Philadelphia;" then lie
obtained ifs likeness and at Once forward
ed it to the parents of, Charlie Ross at
Philadelphia. The Ross family received
the likeness on Monday, and they pro
nounced it not to be' that of their missing
child. They expressed themselves satis
fied that this was a caseof mistaken iden
tity, adding that "Charlie would not say
that . he came from Philadelphia, as Ger
mantown was the only locality lie knew."'
The Father Kenny spoken of is supposed
to be at present in Philadelphia. The boy,
it is understood, bears striking resem
blance to Charlie Ross.
tet,.. That most wonderful of all our
modern charities,the Poor Children's Free
Excursions, has come to a successful and
brilliant close. The series fur 1874 con
sisted of twelve picnics, and occupied the
whole of July and August. The statis
tics of the work performed reach some re
markable figures. On the twelve excur
sions there were 6,761 girls and 17,086
boys taken away from the city for a day's
fun and pleasure. The total cost of these
excursions was 880 . 4.89, or the insignifi
cant sum of thirty-seven cents thr each of
the 23,847 chiidren. With this sum boats,
tags, barges, groves, bands, waiters, anti
the thousand and one other items of ex
pense were paid for, besides au enormous
quantity of food.—.la addition, between
ten and eleven thousand sick infants and
their mothers have bean taken upon the
waters of the Sound, the Bay, and the
Hudson, on the Floating Hospital of St.
John's Guild since the inauguration of
the excursions. The cost of provisions
consumed on the twelve excursions, and
of tug boat, barge, etc., is put down at
83,172. Never have the city's poor chil
dren been so well provided for, and these
are sie yobjes ull our charities.
[Christian at IVork:
ear Three men met and robbed a poor
wayfardr on his . road to Louisville' in
search for employment. They took from
•him his pocket-book Containing five dol

deliberatly tied the poor fellow to the
railroad track and left him to his fate.
The victim struggled to free himself, using
almost superhuman exertions, and at
length contrived to get, his body and one
of his legs off the rail, but befbre he could
free the other limb an express train passed
over it and tore h off below the knee. Af

Attu in the person' of Mr.'Hirein Y..ReesO.
He is-now eighty-eight years of age, but
still possesses all the vigor and strength'
of a man in the prime of life—in fact
more than most men half a century of•
years younger. He thinks- nothing of
coming to this place and procuring 50.1 bi.

first wife, eleven by 'hie ,second, and eight
by his third, with whom he is still living.
Himself a veteran of the War of 1812—
daring; the late Rebellion he furnished no
less than nine sons for theiThion armies;
four of whom yielded- up their lives in,
the sacred struggle—two being killed at
the first battle of Bull Run; another at
Ball's Bluff, while the fourth was drown
ed while participating with Banks ill fa
ted Red River expedition. The old gen
tleman is a. shoemaker by. trade, and still
plies his vocation—turning'out as much
work as he ever, 4i4 ip

He is straight as un arrow, hale and hear : .
ty, and giv j es every promise of living to
be a centenarian. Another singular thing
n regard to tins man is this : Being in
conversation with him recently' he re
marked to us that his face tuts feeling
somewhat sore, and in reply. to our ques
tion as to what was wrong, he answered
that he was cutting teeth, and actually ex
hibited to us the novel sight of a ntan
eighty-eight years of age producing two
new teeth, which were just cleverly thro'
the gums. We very much question wheth
er another such instance can be found in
the State.
PROJECTED MONUMENT.- A number
of our prominent citizens are again agi,
tating the question of placing a monu
ment or some suitable mark over the spot,
near Guitner's school-house, on the Koser
farm, where the teacher Jos. Brown and
ten chilcli•en 3•ere massacred by the In
dians in 1764-110 years ago on the 26th
of last July. This same question was agi
tated over 31 years Ago, shortly after a
rarty ofgentlemeu had exhumed the bones
of the murdered teacher and children,and
satisfied themselves of the truth of the
traditional story, The exhu'irmtion took
place on the 4th of August, 1843, in the
presence of the following gentlemen; Dr.
William Grubb, Dr. James K. Davidson,
Dr. Charles Michaels, A. B. Rankin, Jas.

cob Mowrer, John B, Osbaugh,Geo. Short,
Christian Reser, Jeremiah Burke, Maj.
John Rowe, Wm.. Osbaugh, Gen. David
Detrich, Adam Shirey, Thos. Atherton,
Ease Beichert, and Master Irwiq. Thro'
neglect the spot has never been permar
neatly parked, and probably only those
now living among the above named geu,
tlemen can point itout ; therefore, to keep
green in the memory of future generations
this act of Indian ferocity and murder,it
is again proposed to !nark the spot With
a durable shaft or stone, and' inscribe en
its face the story
,of the brutal tragedy.
When this movement assumes, proper
shape, we hope the subscription will be
liberal, and that another year may not
find the spot unmarked.— Valley ' Echo.

TILE SEPTEMBER WLATIIER.—Genuine
September weather has asserted itself,
and now in quick succession will pass the
autumn and fall. Bringing us to winter
again almost before we know it. There
is something peculiar in the sombre char-,
aeter of a cloudy September day that must
impress itself on the imatination of the
most stolid, announcing as it .does the
beginning of the decay of summer and ,
appearing as the precursor - of the frosts
that nip. With all its solemnity and
(lark forebodings, its presence cannot be
said to be fliagreeable, and we must accept
it, endeavoring to extract all the good we
can get out of it.
. as.. Previous to.the late war James S.
Williams was a prosperous,and prominent
citizen of Newburg, N. Y. He was an
architect and builder. Shortly after the
war broke out he raised a company which
became Company M of the Sixteenth Now
York cavalry. Until the. cessation of hos
tilities he remained in the army, a meri
torious officer., After the war was ovet
he removed to Chicago, where he soon be
came the owner of several houses; and
lived with his family in good style. The
first Chicago fire left him penniless and
greatly impaired in health. He remain
ed in that city,,strug,gling to again get a
start in the world, until last May. Then
the health of his wife broke down and he
determined 0 return to Orage County, N.
Y. On the 19th of May, the family start
ed,,in a one-horse wagon, for thd East.
The family consisted of Williams; his
wife and four children, the oldest eleven
years of sage, From that time until the
latter part of last week they were on the
road. The feeble state of Mrs. Williams'
health necessitated freqtrent delays. They
traversed the States of Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio; Pennsylvania, West Virginia and
New Jersey, and thus far into New York,
.0a Tuesday last they arrived within a
mile or Gpshen, without a dollar. Tames
H. Goodale, overseer of the 'poor of the
county, was a fellow-workman of Wil
liams years ago, and the latter determin
ed to apply to him for shelter in the alms
house until h squid get something to do.
On arriving its above, the oldest son of
Williams was sent to the village to get
an order from Goodale for aid. Mrs. Wil
liam's had been failing fast, both from the
hardships of the journey and lack of med
icine, it was this that prevented her bus.
band, stopping on the way to obtain work,
as she was anxious to get tp her old home
before she died. While the boy was ab
sent for the order his mother died in the
wagon, almost in sight of home. When
the particulars of the sad case were made
known, the body of Mrs. Williams was
taken 'in charge by Mr.. Peter A. Mill-'
spaugh and given a decent burial,and the
survivors placed in cottartable quarters
until Mr. Williams, utterly broken down
by his hard fate, is able obtain employ-
Meat: Mr. Williams walked' most of
the long distance traveled, and for a'
month has suffered untold agony from a
singular gathering ia iga thumb, which
has rendered amputation of that member
necessary.
A LOST HUSBAND FOUND.—Two or
thf:ee months since the body of a drowned
man was fouLd in the Delaware, at Phil
adelphia, and taken to the Morgue for
identification. About that time one An
thony Murphy, who resided in Alaska
street, was missing from his house. Some
of his relatives visited. the Morgue ands
identified the body there as that of Mur

AlaS! jpw changed that loVely flower
Which bloomed and cheered my heart;
Fair fleeting comfort of an hour,
How soon we're called to part.
From adverse blflsts and lowering storms,
Her favored soul he bore
And with yon bright angelic forms,
She lives to die no more.
Why should I vex my heart, or fast;
No more she'll visit me;
My soul will mount to her at last
And there my child I'll see.
