The regulation and final acjust- mentot the fourth pair of up stream strands was completed yesterday by the Insertion of scgmonts measuring three and fivo-eighth inches between the shoe and pin of the southernmost of the fourth pair of Up stream strands, and one of turee inches on the northernmost of the sume pair of strauds, This operation of inserting segments is one requir. ing a good deal of care, The shoe bars connecting the shoos with the system of stool and Manila ropes and pulleys loading to the engine at the foot of the anchor. age, and which nad been removed on letting the cable out and piuning them between the auchor bars, uro again bolted to the shoe. Power te then applied through the rope system: above ailuded to, and the straud, on which there is the immense pulling sirain’ of some sixty tons,. 1s slowly drawn back, leaving @ space between the slot of the sboe and the pin in the anchor bars sui- ficiont to allow of the insertion of the segments. The pin is knocked through sautfiiciently to allow of one of thy anchor bars being ireed, ‘This is then lifted up by means of the derrick and the segments inserted, WINTER PRECAUTIONS, In view of the approaching winter the saddie slots in the towers of tne bridge ure being provided with a housing of boards to pretect the workmen from the wind, rain and snow.

Six weoks ago last Sunday the wife of Deacon Ezra Smith, one of the pillars of the Baptias Church here, died after an ilinoss of ouly one week. At the time of her death, although the circumstances excited re- mark, no one suspecied foul play, for the ‘amily were eminently respectable, Mr, and Mra, Smith were bora, and their parents before them, :n Addison county. The families of both were “well off,” and many representatives of both have held responsible positions in the State, A brother of Deacon Smith is @ State legislator, and another 18 Aprominent merchant in Burhogton, Deacon Smith bimselt, besides owning a valuable stock farm in Addison, was until recontly a member of the largest stove and tinware establishment ip the county, Upto the time of his wife’s death he hac borne an excollent reputation for integrity; im fact, ho was unusually zealous 1n works of charity and pbilan- thropy. His wile’s malady baffled the efforts of the physician, who treated ber forcholera morbus, Every dose appeared to add to her agony, Tho day before her death Dr, Arthur, her physician, demanded a cvuncil of doctora, and Drs. Hopkins and Kidder were culled in, The extremo prosiration of the hitherto robust woman was commented upon, but, al:hough euch of the physicians had some misgivings, the sur- roundings and social position of the family wore such that nothing was sala abou; thom at the time, and only the simple restoratives usually given jn euch cases were prescribed. On Sunday Mra ‘Smith died, and her remains were interred in the V gennes Cemetery two days later, Here tho matter would have ended bad it not been for a singular com- bination of circumstances. Deacon Smith has enemics, aud among them thore is one man, well known hore, who bas especial reasons for wishing him harm— reasons growing out of a scandalous affair in which Mr, Smith is said to have taken a prominent part in ex- posing und punishing an offence against good morals committed by this individual, who, it is stuted, swore vengeance on the Deacon, This enemy soon mado himself acquainted with Mr, Smith’s weak points, and constituted himself # pri devective in order to wipe out oid scores, DMACON SMITH’R INDISCRETION, Ezra Smitu owned and lived ina pretty white cot- tage on a corner of two streets in one of the most pic- turesque portions of Vergennes, A garden plat, with numbers of fruit trees and grapeviues, is locuted at the rear and side of the house.

Abouta yeur ago the first acquaintance between smith aud dre Champlin began, aud although at Orst ther inumacy was not marked, it ripened, and during tue last six mouths it has been obsorved by tho neighbors that be was rarely absent frow the buuse of Mrs, Champlin during tho evenings. A portion of the summer Mrs, Cuampiin was employed at Mrs. Waruer’s millinery estaviishmeut in town, and every night, says the proprietor, Mr. Smith was on hand dur- tog the evening, coming hours before the time for Mra, Champlin’s departure, and escorting Mrs, Cbampiin home when her duties were fuished. “Ofven during the ufternoon,?? says Mra, Warner, “he would ca! frst 1 supposed to seo my daughter, to whom his son was married, but f soon tound “the. uttractiou wus of a different nature.” Still these tacts amounted to noth- ing 1u thomsoives, but alter the death of his wife be soumed to lose restraint, and, 16 18 asserted, openly vis- ited hor, escorted ber to meetings, attended tne camp meeting with her at New Haven, and while she was visiting a few days at a friend’sin Middicbury his at- tentions wers so marked as to cause scandal, THE SCANDAL BECOMRS PULLIO, About this time stories reach the ears of Mr. Chaniplio, and bo determines to romove Eseex, N.

Shortly Deacon Smith left also tor St. Lawrence county. At Middlebury and at Burlington, it 1s asserted, ho met Mrs, Champiin.
