William Pangborn, of Medway, an old gentleman of eighty-two, is under arrest for having killed his wife, sixty-one years old, on Saturday night, acid admits hav? ing committed tho act, butclaima that he did it white dreaming that he was fight? ing a bear. The question of responsibility for murder committed in a dream is a novel one. Tho postal rates with Europe, as fixed by the late general treaty, which went into effect July 1, 1875, are five cents for letters weighing one-half ounce or less, two cents for postal cards, and two cents for newspapers weighing not over four ounces, to all countries except France, to which the rates are nine cents for* letters and three cents for newspapers. To Egypt and Asiatic Turkey the postage has been reduced to five cents on letters and two cents on papers. A Milwaukee belle, attending a theatre in that city recently, complained in one of the scenes that the light was too dim to see the act properly. "Won't you try this glass?"' asked her escort, handing her his lorgnette. Hastily covering the suspicious looking object with her hand? kerchief, she placed it to her lips, took'a long pull, and then handed it back in deep disgust, saying, "Why, there ain't a drop in it" Stolen, ON the night of the ICth inst, from my residence, ooo Double-Case Gold WATCH, No. 7,169, Crissman Sons and Heim, Geneva, makers; heavy Gold f race Chain, with Black Onyx Stone Locket attached; one pair heavy Red and White Onyx Stone Sleeve Buttons, with initials on reverse side; a Black Alpaca Sack Coat, and pair Dark Blue Pants.
