Ann L, Campbell testified that the night before Witness laid the fire and found the water running in the taps in the kitchen; the water was running in the morning. Witness swore that the range was out of order; twice it had been fixed; the house was hired from one Waldron, an agent of tho owner, John Darragh, of East Fifty second street, Who refused to put the house in order. John Dar- ragh testified that he was not informed that the range was out,of order; that Dr. Campbell fixed the house upto suit himself. Theodore E. Grippen, the party who put in the range, stated that he couid not account for the explosion; it had been put in three years ago, and he had heard no complaints about it being defective; there would be little diMiculty in repairing it if it got out of order, Dr. Campbell testified that he hired the house of Waldron, agent for Darragh; it was in bad con- dition, and he agreeito advance money to put it in repair; was told that the range was rusty, but the agent would have it put in good order; Costa, the plumber, informed him that the range was worn out, and the agent said Darragh would not to more expense. Another plumber, condemned the range; re- ported the condition of the range to Darragh, who retused to repair it, and threatened to sue witness for the rent he had advanced to the agent to repair it; witness leased the house with the distinct understanding that it was to be put in thorough repair. Hanford Horton, sanitary engineer, testified that the range was not thick enough to resist the pres- sure of the Croton, which, up there, is about forty- five pounds fo the square inch; the iron was only one eighth of an inch thick—only sufficient to sus- tain a pressure of twenty pounds; he was of the opinion that the disaster was caused by the insuf- ficiency of the iron to sustain the Croton pressure. ‘Two plumbers, who had fixed the range at dif ferent times, testified that it was very dilapidated and rusty, and by no means in a good condition. Dr. Cushman gave it as his opinion that deceased died from shock and burns received. The Coroner, in charging the jury, stated that it was the duty of the landlord, if informed of the de- fective condition of the range, to put itin repair. If they found by the evidence that Darragh was aware of the bad condition they could censure the landiord, Tbe jury retired, and later returnea a verdict that deceased came to her death from shock and scalds produced by the explosion of the range, and they felt it their duty to severely censure the landlord, Darragh, for allowing this defective ran; to remain inthe house after being notified of its condition, NEW YORK CITY.

Mr. Pratt has just packed off a lot of Christmas portraits and is engaged on some others. N.

They are full of rich color, Laura Woodward is putting the finishing touches to a scene from Orange county, N. Y., and one from Wyoming Valley, Pa. Miss H. J.

Hart has completed his “Indian Summer,” and succeeded ina high degree of perfection in reproducing the woolly texture of the sheep. The season represented, as indicated by the title, is that in which the trees are newly bared of leaves, and when snow might be expected in twenty-four hours or might not arrive fora month, Mr. Hart intends to puta little more “consclence work" into “Indian Summer,” but so far as average dis- cernment 1s concerned the picture is completed. J. H. Lazarus has finished a series of portraits, among which are those of Mrs. Lawson and Lucius Tuckerman, cousin to Henry T. Tuckerman. P. P. Rydor has quite a batch of newly finished pictures, Among them are “Good News,” painted for the Artists’ Fund; “A Summer Reverie,” though the expression of the face given is scarcely that of brooding; an ideal head, iull of thought and refinement, but evidencing no especial strength, and “Expectation,” representing @ hungry child with raised spoon and anticipative eyes. There is a large class of artists, not only in this city, but elsewhere, who, nursing themselves ina sense of their own reputation, disdain to be men- tioned in public side by side with those not so well known and not so meritorious. The feeling ts a morbid one, the offspring of vanity and conceit. It would be impossible, for instance, to disparage Dickens by allowing a paragraph respecting him to follow one about Yates, No harm can be done Shakspeare by coupling a new fact relating to him with one relating to Mrs, Southworth. Whenever, therefore, an obscure artist is engaged on some- thing that readers may feel interested in we shall apprise them of the fact, however wounded the great artistic lights may be. The restoration of the paintings of the chotr-roof of Salisbury Cathedral, England, has been finished.

Mr. Orrock, who used to admire David Cox so intensely as to imitate even his worst mannerisms, is said in his recent labors to have thrown off this original to a great extent.

AN OrrIctAL “Report on the Losses Sustained by the Public Libraries of Paris During the Prussian Siege and the Commune” shows that the latter is responsible for all the actual losses. The Library of the Louvre was totally destroyed; 80, also, were the 120,000 volumes of the Hotel de Ville, specially rich in the history of Paris. There were also destroyed the minor libraries of the Council of State, the Court of Accounts, the Court of Appeals, With 50,000 volumes of jurisprudence ; the Legion of Honor, the Society of Advocates, the Ministry of Finance and the Prefecture of Police, the latter library being very rich in French newspapers.

The antedeluvian Brownson is heard from again in the shape of a revival of his somniferous Quar- terly Review. We have Vol. 1, No. 1, of what he terms the “last series” before us, and find it just as metaphysical, plucky and uncompromising as the first. The venerable Orestes informs the world that he has been under a cloud for many years, and that now he emerges from the gloom as a sort of independent comet whose brilliance can- not last very long. Nobody, he says, is responsible for him, and nobody will be quicker to retire again should he find himself in danger of eclipse irom the ecclesiastical authorities. There is something to | be admired in the plain outspoken style of the un- manageable reviewer, but we are not sure his last series will benefit either himself or the cause he hag so much at heart. THE WEST FARMS SCHOOL WAR. As already foreshadowed in these columns, the recent decision of the Board of Supervisors ot Westchester county has not tended to allay the strife which has existed for some time past among the inhabitants of School District No.1, town ot West Farms.

Determined not to be d in their aims, however, the mem- bers of the Board of Kducation ‘have sought the aid of the Courts, and yesterday Justice Pratt issued an order directing the Board of Supervisors to appear before him and show cause why a man- daimus should not be issued compelling that body to sanction the financial measure appliea for.
