Z7»e A J tw tion Case. The testimony taken a t the inquest in the case o f A nne H oxib , deceased, o f Catskill, is of such a character that Coroner I ngersoix does not regard i t as proper for publication. The v erdict of the jury was, “that Anne Hoxie came to her death by means used b y berseif, under tbe direction of W illiam W.

I t is often averred that “pontlcians are soul less andangratefnl,\nnd that “friendship’s b u t a name,” b u t our experience, during the past twenty years, gives the lie to such cynical as sertions. Many a time and oft have we re ceived from political friends them ost undoubted evidences o f kindly regard—^bnt never have we permitted any one to hold ns under the in fluence of pecuniary consideration. A recent event (the tenor of wMch m aybe g athered from the correspondence below) very strongly con firms onr view of appreciative friendsbip, and awakens in our h e a rt the most lively emotions. The engine so generously presented us is of W ood ’ s Patent, made by C lute B ros ., Sehe- nectady, is of e%ht-hoi*?e power, and worth $700.

It has been my aim to serve the Democratic party conscientiously, faithft^y. and to return to my pa trons a full and fair egmvalent for their money. That I am now enabled to do so to a greater extent, and to m erit a largely increased patronage, X am largely indebted to you—^for all which, I assure you, o one can feel a deeper gratitude than does YoTirs, truly J. B. H all . The **Grant Mouse,** The G rant House, Jeffersoa Heights, one of the first large Summer Hotels built near this YiUage, won such popularity with its patrons that the proprietors felt called upon to enlarge its accommodations for the business of the pres ent season. Accordingly Messrs. G rant & S mith expended, about $ ^ ,000 in enlarging,re modeling and-refurnishing the original build ing ; aud as a result the G rant Honse is to-day one o f the pleasantest and best Summer Hotels imaginahle. I t is built on a beautiful plateau, at an elevation commanding the finest views of the celebrated scenery of the Catskill re^on, is surrounded by ample pleasure grounds full of the choicest frnits, joins the best Driving P a r k . in the State, is right “in town,” and altogether is all that its guests could desire. Within the house the arrangements are in keeping. The rooms are unusnally large and a ir y ; well lighted, ventilated and supplied; elegantly furnished, including the best kind of spring mattresses that will make sleep a g reater luxury than ever. Hygienic requirements have been studied a t every point. All the improve ments of the day have been introduced—espe cially in the culinary department,where various modem steam apparatus is employed. The sil ver and plate is of n eat and stylish finish, and was liarked with the name of the honse by the manufacturers. The spacious croquet grounds for the fair sex, and the cool billiard hall for the male persuasion, complete the attractions. A. J . G rant , Esq., is “ a t the helm,” as hereto fore, assisted by F rank L. S mith in the oiflee.. The house will accommodate nearly 200 guests. The proprietors have n ot only displayed great enterprise in m aking this large outlay, b u t an nounce further extensive improvements as soon as time will permit. The pleasure grove is to he supplied with fountains, &c. Such enter prises as this contribute to the interests of the Village generally, by appreciating the surround ing property, and onoonraging corresponding efforts in others.

A fetrsueb seasong^as Gds, however, will create a demand for chen'y trees; artd,!f a judicious selection of varieties is made, SO as to get kinds ripening in succession (thus giving p lentyof time for picking,) the cherry orchard wiU be a t least as profitable as any.— A l f r e d F oots , J n o . M. B roo ks , W k .H.V an O r d e n , and others 'of this vicinity who have cherry trees, ten to fifteen years set out, have received very good returns. Some single trees have netted $20 to $25, and the average has exceeded $10 worth to a tree. The cherry is a handsome and deUcious f r u i t ; the tree is sym metrical and handsome, and will b ear p o o r soil and neglect better than any ether fruit tree.— For varieties ripening in succession, the fol lowing are among the h e a t: Maydtike,*Bigar- rean, *Black Tartarian, Gov. Wood, ’“'Blton, Late Duke, ’^Eichmond, and Eelne Hortense. Those marked with a star are usually the best bearer?, in this latitude, aud the most profitable.

There is lUOe th a t m arks the civilization of the present century more gratefntty than the pains taken to beautify the Ias( resting-places of the dead. Standing within the BnrialGronnd at Cairo, and looking towards the North and East, the eye traces the winding valley of the Catskill Creek. At the South and West the “everlasting hills” loom np, from North Moun tain to their terminus, far'W estof B lack Head, this latter p e a k towering directly over the spot. Here the weary penitent may stand and bless God’s holy nam e “ forthe good examples of His servants who have departed this life in His faith and fear,” And here tho longing sufferer may look upon the resting places of the dear ones, who, in the good providence of God, are deUvered. from “ tronhle,. sorrow, need, sick ness, and every other adversity.” One of these graves m arks the resting place of I saac H ik e . He was the friend of aU those Who were “ afflicted in mind, body-or estate.” Of him the writer only remembers being called from school to stand, with older and deeper moiumers, a t his death bed. He bad given a valnahle lot to the Presbyterian congregation, of Cairo, for the erection of a house of wor ship. He also contributed largely towards the ways and means f o r building the edifice. After its completion a committee waited upon him with a subscription for funds to erect lightning rods for Its proteetlon. “Not a cent,” said Mr. H ine; “ we have built a house for the Lord, and if i t please him to batter it down with light ning, y o n r rods cannot prevent it.” Mr. and Mrs. Hina left ten children,of whom only three survive. The eldest daughter, -wife of Bev. Dr. B abcock , a woman whose saintly character is stamped upon the memory of aU ivlio knew her, now “rests from h er labors” in the heantifol cemetery at BaUston Spa. The second son was the genial, kindly Dncle Mu sic, already introduced to the reader in the lines under the heading of “ V an ■V' eohten ’ s Dam.” He sleeps a t the foot of his beloved mountains, and every evening Black Head spreads a m antle of peace over his resting place. In June lost the children of Dr; and Mrs. Bab cock, six in number, celebrated his 80th birtii- day, a t liis residence in BaUston Spa. Tliree of these sons arc graduates of Union College, and are doin^ good w o rk in tUc ministry of tlic Chnrch. Ail the children are highly educated, and this was done a t a time when tho Doctor’s salary did n o t exceed four hundred dollars per annum. He taught the languages, wrought a large garden, and lived, perhaps, on locusts and wild honey. Tho Doctor delighted to p reach of the loving kindness and mercy of God. “I love,” said he to tho -writer, “to vindicate the ways of God to men.” He owned a potato patch on the snnrnfit o f a sand hiU. One Sun day morning, In the midst of a sore drought, bis eldest son was starting to officiate in his Parish Church. “My son,” said thp Doctor, “ do not forget to p ray for rain to-day.” On his re- thm the Doetbrasked, “ did yon p ray for rain ?” “Oh, father, I forgotit.” “There,” whispered the good Doetor,^‘I knew i t ; wo shan't have a bushel o f potatoes In that whole patch.” Dr. Babcock is a large man. A Idndly, heedless, loving, Irrcvifrent neighbor, speaking of his hand, said “it’s as large as the hand of Provi dence.” This rather careless neighbor was a study. His love o f “ Mountain dew” was touch ing and tender; and, strange to say, his Indul gence in this weakness, contraiy to all hnman experience, filled his heart with generous and kindly emotions. Once upon a time, h e was sick w ith influenza and ffiorrhoea. A friend found him undergoing, as h e said, “ a course of medicine,” his' own prescription—gin a n d mo lasses for the influenza, brandy and Sugar for the diarrhoea—aUemating every two hours.— He stUl lives. Late in the FaU, some dozen years ago, tho laborers on the Saratoga and Sackett’s R. R. were discharged abruptly, to brave the IVintcr in poverfy and want. On a frosty November morning a man, woman and. four children, were passing throngh the streets of Saratoga, hare-footed and in rags. Our bib- nlous friend, with tears of pity coursing his cheeks, brought n p the rear, with the fifth and youngest child in his arms. Calling a h a lt in front of a shoe store, he furnished the family with comfortable shoes—-then marching to a restaurant, h e ordered a warm breakfast for all—Went n p to the bar, participated in a cheer ful 6mUe“—paid the charges—andIh o p e ,“ wcnt down to his house justified.” Thereare “ scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites,” who “devom* wid ow’s houses,” “ thank God they are n o tas other men are,*' and then turn and brand this noble- hearted man, who loved his neighbor as him self, as a \glutton and a wine-bibber.” Let me fall into the h ands of the Lord, for h is mercies are great, bnt let m e n o t fall into the hands of Hero also are found the names of four chil- dren of D aniei : S aybb , who perished amid the ruins o f Jjjs own honso, many years ago in the depth o f a W intry night* Mr. a n d Mrs. Sayre were roused from sleep by a scream from their little son, a bOy of twelve, years, Ihe only sur- vivor of the five who occupied the upper floor on that fearful night. The remains of three daughters, who occupied the same room, were found in the cellar, side by side, os the ruins were removed. \When Mr. Sayre found i t im possible to break through the flames to the res cue of his little ones, raising his hands and eyes heavenward he exclaim ed: “ I t is jthe Lord’s will.” Since the day when holy J o n cried out, in h is anguish, “The Lord gave and the Lord, hath taken away j blessed be the name of the Lord,” where is the record of more sublime submission ond faith than this attitude and ex clamation of Daniel Sayre. In the pursuit of right. Captain M atthew S ayre , the surviver of this tragedy, is a man of indojnitablfl will. Burdened w ith the weight of seventy-six years, a fter a life of hardsMps and exposure such as are k n a m i only to those who go down to the sea in ships, his form is erect and straight as a n arrow. I t was touch ing beyond expression to see this hardy sailor brush tho moisture from Ms sightless eyes,as he related the wonderful resignation and trust of his sainted father. Tho evening of life is set tling peacefnUy down upon him, who afteF years of sunshWe and storm, in , command of Sag Harbor whalemen, is ending his days, “os it were a tale that is told,” within sight of the old homestead.

Last Summer twenty-flve thousand people refreshed them selves in this vicinity- Id Jnly and Angnst EH the farmhouses' and hotels w e re Crb-wded, and during “the season” from a hundred and fifty to two hnndred passengers landed a t Kaatskili HOTELS. The Prospect House, whose success is con firmed by the brilliancy of an opening season and by the qualify of its gnests, accommodates four hundred. 'The table is so good that the little white satin menus were last Summer fre quently enoiosed in letters to absent friends, and the epicurean remJnisoenees were eonsid-, ered quite worthy to supplement accounts of excited sceneries and tender sentiments. There is, too, an advantage in the suites o f rooms, so opening from east and West upon th e ebrifidors that a mountain-room and a river-room may be united, and the sunshine and shade of morning and afternoon be a t command alter nately.. T h e Grant House, intended especially for fatnlUes,” qnd enlarged this season to a oapa- _ity for two hundred gnests, is ■picturesquely situated upon a headland fronting Kaatskili Creek. Around the base of its terraced rounds winds a serpentine way, called “The- onake Road,” Including in its sweep a celebra- ted landslide and a petrifying springy. Another approach hy carriage-drive extends through fragrant apple orchards, a fact of some value to small c ^ d r e n , who love to gambol npon grass p lats; since, of the very few shade trees ■whose umbrage is really h^i^th-giving, the apple tr e e ran k s first. S w m ^ , -arbors, and. croquet grounds diversify the lawns; and the view Of tSe surrounding country, including the emerald bed of the Kaatskili, is rich in endless details. , , THE CREEK. The Kaatskili Creek—the staid bridegroom of the wild little KauterskiU that runs, as you know, a breakneck race of audacity to reach its fate, and makes Itself wonderfully beautiful in Its naivete of self-forgetfulness—is a favorite resort for rowing parties. Hardly can you imagine a more enchanting sort of quiet enjoy- ment than to wander on a summer’s afternoon along this liquid arcade, painted fathom-deep with exquisite reflections, or at moonlight to measure fight-hearted songs to the rhytmnical accompaniment of dipping oars.
