THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 1879.
Last Saturday evening at Mount
Vernon, Texas, Robert Morgan, whom
the sheriff left in charge of the Jail,
was assassinated by nix men, who,
after murdering Morgan, attempted
the rescue of the prisoners, but the
door resisting their efforts and being
fired on by the citizens, they were com
pelled to their horses and escaped.
The citizens threatened to burn the
jail with the prioners in retaliation,
but were prevailed upon to desist.
Faithless swains had better beware
of California juries. Emily Hanks,
at the age of 21, entered the house of
Gon. Henry M. Naglee of San Jose in
the capacity of housekeeper. She was
then an orphan, and had for some
years been supporting herself by do
mestlc service and sewing. She has
now sued him for breach of pro.niise of
marriage and betrayel under cover of
that promise, and has obtained a ver
dict for $27,500.
Mrs. Rose M'Cnskcr, an aged
widow occupying with her son the
second floor of 225 West Sixteenth
street, roughkecpsle, N. Y., was found
early Sunday morning, April 6, sus'
pended on the iron railing in front of
the house. The sharp spikes had en
tered her abdomen and she died as the
officers were removing her from her
terrible position. She suffered greatly
from cramps in her legs, and it is sup
posed that while walking around the
floor during the night to gain relief,
she was attracted to the window and
fell out.
State Supt. Wickersham created
quite a sensution in the Legislature in
his prompt and explicit answer to a
resolution requesting him to inform
them how much of last year's appro
priation to schools remained unpaid
He asserted a fact which seems to
have taken all by surprise that for
the year J 876 the sum of $120,445
remains unpaid : for 1877 the sum of
$522,209 ; for 1878 the sum of $927,035,
44 this for common schools. For
normal schools there remains unpaid
$100,000, and for soldiers' orphans'
schools the sum of $37,000.
The boat being built for Lewis O.
Goldsmith, the latest usjirant to cross
the ocean and ultimately to go round
the world, is almost completed. It is
eighteen feet and a half in length, six
feet beam, and three feet depth of hold,
built of oak and hard pine planking.
It is so constructed us to be a boat
within a boat, having nine uir-tight
compartmeny. It is sharp at both
ends, and can bail itself. Goldsmith
and his wife expects to circumnavigate
the globe and terminate their voyage
at San Francisco, returning to Boston
by rail.
Baltimore is the champion city of
America for the manufacture of cheap
jellies. It is well understood that the
jelly is an animal, rather than a vege
table product, being simply gelatine,
colored and flavored according to the
fruit that is to be represented. Boston
jelly is chiefly made of apples, also
flavored and colored in imitation of
other fruits, and the imposition is dis
covered by very few. It costs 14 cents
a pound, which is about half what the
genuine fruits represented cau be sup
plied for. Boston is also a great rasp
berry jam mart, and the eight Arms
manufacturing it produce au aggregate
of 500 tons a year. It sells for 18 cents
a pound, and is made from dried rasp
berries. General W. 3. Hancock took
apartments for himself, wife, daughter
aud niece at the St. Cloud Hotel, in
New York, in November, 1873, pay
ing $355 a month, with meals included.
In March, 1874, $4,000 worth of jewelry
was stolen from the rooms occupied by
the family. Mrs. Hancock sued for
$2,452, the value of the articles be
longing to her, and Gen. Hancock
8ued for the value of the articles be
longing to him. Referee H. F.
Averill decided for the proprietors of
the St. Cloud on the ground that the
Hancock family were not guests in the
meaning of the law. An appeal was
taken to the Supreme Court, which on
Thursday reversed the decision of the
referee und ordered a now trial. So
that General Hancock is likely to get
the $4,000.
Some interesting statistics on the
consumption of alcoholic liquors in
France have been lately brought be
fore the French Academy of Medicine
by M. Luuier. Wine is the true na
tional diiuk, and there is consumed of
it, on an average, thirty gallons per in
habitant per annum. In 1833 the num
ber was only fifteen gallons. The con
sumption of cider tends to diminish.
But brandy Li drunk to facilitate the
digestion of eider; and the more cider
the more brandy. The consumption
of beer has increased considerable
within the last fifty years. The con
sumption of spirits, which was about
two quarts per head in 1837, is now
represented by three quarts. The de
partments which consume most spirits
are those which do not consume much
wine. With regards to spirits, M.
Luuier proves that it is in the depart
ments consuming most spirits that
most cases of accidental death, tli rough
excess, occur, and the case of appre
hension for drunkenness are Ave
times more numerous in these depart
ments than in those consuming prin
cipally wine. Alcoholic insanity, too,
is almost everywhere in proportion to
the direct consumption of spirits. The
only exceptions are La Vendee and
Cbarente lnforieure, where they drink
only white wines: but these taken in
excess are as dangerous in this respect
as brandy.
Washington Letter.
From our regular Correspondent.
Washington, D. C, April 7tb.
The result of t he extra session, or Its
probable duration, can bo no better
foretold now than it could last week.
A rather tedious discussion of the
army bill has consumed the time in
the House, while the Senate la leisurely
waiting for something to do. Mr.
Garfield's speech on the legislation
proposed by the Democrats, prohibit
ing the use of troops at the polls on
election days, Is the leading effort on
the Republican side, and his friends
have admired it rather profusely.
Taken all In all, however, the effect
was simply that of a piece of vigorous
declamation- Whatever basis of truth
it may have contained was exagger
ated beyond the usual license of de
clamatory rhetoric, whilo some T its
statements are not borne out by the
facts. But the worst of it all Is that,
even had all his statements been true
history, they would have come with a
better grace from any other mouth
than Garfield's, inasmuch as his own
previous declarations and votes come
within the scope of his denunciations,
iNot much more than a month ago
Mr. Garfield stated, on the floor of the
House, that the Republcaus were
ready to' concede that the conditions
requiring troops at the polls, and the
test oath, no longer existed ; and now
he is engaged in an efiort to make the
proposition to repeal them appear re
volutionary. But what use to look for
consistency in a politician? They arc
about all alike in advocating what,
for the time being, seems to serve the
endsof their parties. A prominent Re
publican, in private conversation with
the correspondent of a leading inde
pendent journal, a day or two since,
said : We are all President making.
It is not a question whether these
laws should or should not be repealed,
but a contest for position in the
presidential race. Of course, we don't
think there is any revolution about it,
but we want to consolidate and unite
the party. This Is the thiug in a nut
shell. The country Is not affected one
way or the other, but the Democrats
are bound to repeal these Republican
laws, and the Republicans are bound
they shali not. The Democrats have
both houses of Congress and can pass
the acts, but the Republicans hope to
sufficiently stiffen the spine of the
White House to insure a veto. And
it is all for party all "President mak
ing." The Cameron-Oliver trial came to an
end with about the result that had
been anticipated a verdict for defen
dant. The case occupied two weeks,
filtering an unusual amount of Hasti
ness through its proceedings, and the
verdict is pretty generally indorsed by
the public sentiment. Simon had
already been bled by this bold, bad
women enough and while he now
escapes a judgment for damages, it has
cost him a heavy expenditure of funds,
and a smirching of character that few
men of position would bear for any
amount of money. The wonder is
that a man of Simon Cameron's
kuowledge of the world, a man of his
varied experience and extensive obser
vation, should have become involved
in such an affair. It is strange that
a crafty, cool, long-headed man like
him should have permitted a bad,
weak minded, unlettered, unattractive
woman to draw him into such a posi
tion that he had to refer her to his
lawyer. And there is a moral to adorn
this tide. It is, perhaps, too much to
expect that public men will not keep
mistresses, and so long as they do
Washington will be, as it now is,
more or less infested with this class of
brazen adventuresses, but there cer
tainly should be some way to prevent
these influential men from quartering
their bawdy strumpets upon the
government. They should not be al
lowed to place them upon the pay-rolls
of the various departments, where
they draw the salaries that ought to go
to respectable women with families to
support. There are in the employ of
the Treasury and other departments
hundreds of worthy women and
honest, charming girls, but they are
constantly humiliated and contamin
ated by contact with the creatures
whom Congressmen, Senators and
others cause to be associated with
them. It is a disgrace and a shame,
and there ought to be some way to
stop it
While waiting' for the appropriation
bills to reach the Senate, the Wallace
Teller committee are amusing them
selves witli looking up the means em
ployed by Secretary Gorham to raise
his camjmign fund last year. There is
a law against assessing government
employees, but it seems a pretty large
fund was raised in this way. It is
amusing to note the different bent of
this Teller committee, as it was,
since its complexion changed, The
other ox is. being gored now. But
such is politics. Dom Pedro.
An exchange says: Mechanics
and material men should be careful
about doing work or furnishing ma
terial on the separate real estate of
married women, unless receiving pay
in advance as to secure them from the
necessity of filing liens. The Supreme
court interprets the luw as very
strictly limiting the powers of mar
ried women, and expressed the opin
ion that it is to be sincerely hoped
that "neither by construction or legis
lation will their power to contract for
improvements to their separate real
estate be extended. Married women
are thereby looked upon by the Court
as being incapable of managing their
own affairs, hence this protection."
Tuesday afternoon a passenger
train on the Lebanon and Treinout
railroad near Swatara Station, Pa., ran
into a wagon containing an old man
and two boys killing one of the latter
instantly and injuring the other so
severely that his recovery is doubtful.
The old man escaped uninjured.

A Handsome Income For An
ENERGETIC LADY OR GENTLEMAN,
The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati
have just patented and are now in
troducing to the public a Handsomely
finished Family Scale, an article
that has always been needed in every
household, and in a communication
addressed to the publishers of this
paper the proprietors ask us toefcr
them to some reliable party, to intro
duce it for thera to the people of this
county, it is very seldom that a
new article steps so suddenly into uni
versal favor. House-keepers are loud
in its praise, it is always ready, there
are no weights to get Lost or to be
hunted up, it is reliable, and will not
get out of order. The discription of
them is a handsome base surmounted
by a column in which works a spiral
spring so scientifically adjusted as to
weigh anything up to twelve pounds
with perfect accuracy, on the top of
the cortfrtm is the platform on which
the articles to be weighed are placed,
aud they have an adjustable indicator
so that you cau take the tare of any
vessel you may use in weighing,
giving you the exact net weight.
House-keepers at once see their value
In weiirhlnK fruits, sugars and other
ingredients used in preserving, cook'
ing etc., or iu testing the weights of
purchases from others.
The scales are made of Brass, are
highly polished and are finished in a
skillful manner. They are very at
tractive ami take the eye of every one
who sees them.
It seems to us that nearly every
family in this county will want one,
and is certainly a rare opportunity for
some smart and energetic party to pick
up quite a nice little income during
the next few months. The Company
has agents in other counties who are
easily making from $5 00 to 3 00 per
day selling them, and we would re
commend parties in need of employ'
meut to drop the OHIO SCALE
