Plans innumerable are suggested for the extermination of these pests, but none as yet seems to have f,,und iavor. . These things must be ex pected to come in with the summer sea ,on, which would lose ball' of its interest without them. Another pest has also wade its seasonable appearance, simul taneously with the higera to the water ing places, and that is the baggage 'masher against whose depredations a wail of agony is going up from one end of the country to the other. This mon ster has developed into a creature of ex traordinary destructiveness and defies extirpation. We read of one whose haunt is between Philadelphia and Cape May, who, it is claimed, can take a Sar atoga trunk by the handle and pull the entire side out without a seeming effort, and go about his business as though he v‘ ere not the least bit proud of his achievement.. Unfortunately for him, the owner of the trunk was seized with a frenzied ambition to pull this baggage % masher's ears off, and had nearly suc ceeded when he was interrupted. We are very sorry he was not permittedto continue, as he might thereby have dis e4,‘ ered the long desired remedy against the further encroachments of this.untlr fog and devoted encourager of the trunk trade.

Shocking linitille.--The Most Prominent Business Mu of Bea ver County Shoits Wednesday, 241 Inst., about 8 (Mock, this county was considerably startled by the announcement of the suicide of Mr. William Kennedy, the most prom inent business man of New. Jtrighton, who shot himself in the forehead with a pistol, and died within fifteen minutes of the fatal shooting. A few weeks ago, as It will be remembered, be_ told the story, he had gone to %Beaver. Creek to look at some property he had there. He had been sitting on the timbers of tbe.yailroad bridgala short time when a feeling of dizziness came over him, and to prevent falling into the stream, he jumped, and accidentally fell and frac tured his leg, thereby saving his life in stead of going down into the bed of the stream. Since early spring be has been severe ly afflicted with inflammatory rheuma tism. By reason of this -combination of afflictions he has not been able to attend to his very extensive business, although his physicians reported he was recover ing from his injuries. About, three weeks preitious to his death be borrow ed a pistol from his brother-in-law, Frank Hoopes, jr., on the pretext that he wished to guard his premises from burglars. On the morning mentioned during the temporary absence of his wife, about 8 o'clock, a pistol shot was heard emanating from his residence, and the immediate neighbors of the de ceased rushed into the house and found Mr. K. supported by an easy chair, hol ding a pistol in his hand and with a bul let hole in the centre of his forehead. Before medical assistance could be ren dered be was dead. Mr. Kennedy was, up to the time of his death, the moat extensive business man of Beaver county, dealing in ',ev erything, and having business traniac tions with everybody. It was said of him he could sell a man anything he might want, no matter how great or small. He dealt in all kinds of mer chandise and bought and sold coal, wool, real estate and everything else that anybody wanted to buy or sell. His business thus came to be wide spread and extensive, and his books were in a confused condition. It is said •neitber he nor his book keeper could tall how he stood with the World, but . lsq-4w _leq-4w it is believed his assets are in excess of his liabilities. He had several farms in different parts of the county, and mort gages on the lands of others. He trust ed everybody who Couldn't get credit from anybody else, and now at last ho became embarrassed, and as it would ap pear, hopelessly confused about what ho did owe, and his ready resources, and blowed his brains ont—ln a moment of insanity no doubt—brought on by busi ness complications. It is rumored that he had an imperative call for $15,000 on the evening previous to his death, and $40,000 more during the week; and that despairing of raising the funds he com mitted the awful error of shirking the responsibility by taking his life. It is also believed that he was subject to fits of insanity. Mr. Kennedy was insured as follows: Mutual Benefit $10,000; New England Mutual $15,000; Phcenix Mutual; of Hartford, $5,000; Travelers' Life Acci dent $10,000; Continental, of Hartford, $5.000. -11 l tw The following gentlemen constituted the Jury which was impanneled in the morning, at which time the testimony of Mrs. Kennedy, the wife of the de ceased, was taken, which the above is a character confirming the facts: Messrs. S. A. McGowan. James Wilson, Joseph Alexander, Philip Martsolf, T. 0; Wad dle and Joseph Bentley. Agreeable to adjournment the Coro ner's Jury met. Messrs. Champlin, Hoops, Barker, Meyer and Dr. McKinney, were stvorn and gave inl their testimony. The fol lowing is the greater portion of Dr. Mc- Kinney's testimony: He says, I was called about 8 a. m. to see him, the deceased, and found him sitting in an easy chair with pistol in hand, a ballet hole in the centre of ilia forehead. He was dead when larrived.- Made superficial examination; the ball entered the skull—have no doubt but that tie wound was affected by his own hand, and was the cause of his death. I was called to see him the day he fell off the bridge: found be had a broken leg, and concussion of the brain; his pulse was low, skin cold and all evidences of a severe shock to the brain. He rallied however, and his condition improved for three days, after which I began to observe his mind wandering. I would ask a questiou-and he would answer on ly partially intelligently, and then drop off apparently asleep for some five sec onds and then commence to talk about something else. The only subject he would converse about rationally was business subjects; I could not get him asleep for several nights, whilst in this mental condition. His tongue became dry and coated; bowels inactive, all symptoms that Indicated subacute brain disease. Became alarmed at his condi tion and prohibited any and all business transactions. I would have to say that he was of unsound mind. • • • • • During this condition of the patient, I would not be surprised if he bad taken his life at any moment. The doctor con tinued giving a minute description of his patient's condition while under his professional care, and summed up his whole testimony by saying that Mr. K., in his jUdgment, was partially insane at the time he committed the deed which ooat him his life. the Jury after hearing the testimony adjourned and met in the same place, Thursday morning, and rendered their verdict, which is as follows: "That the paid Will Kennedy mac to his death on the 2+:l day of July A. 1). 1873 at about 7:45 a. in., in his own•re•ldence, in borough of New Brighton, county of Beaver. by a pistol shot in his forehead by his own hand, while In • state of temporary funnily." The decease was forty-eight years of age, and leaves a wife and three chil dren. His widow is id such a delicate condition that fears are entertained for her life, as she is frantic with grief at the affliction which thus falls upon her at a time when, of all others, it bears more heavily. The death of Mr. Ken nedy is deplored by hundreds of friends who knew and respected him. His fa- mere' took place at his late residence off Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock, which was well attended,. If ever you chance, gentle reader, to awake about four o'clock In the morn ing, you will hear such a concert as the feathered warblers vouchsafe to mortals at no other time of day. Every bird is out, pouring his best and loudest song. The air and earth are still, and the sweet cadences rise and swell in pleasing har mony. Now coulee a bit of silence, and then follows & chirping chatter, as if the whole winged creation were in full con sultation in regard to the programme for the day just opening. It is worth while to wake early, if it bo only to lis ten to our sweet songsters. Imported Ingress at A. C.

Tie. West Mu. Enrrion:—PaTielf_ recently re turned - film the dtrection of the setting sun, I am hidneed... to tranindt ' some . • thing of my observation on paper for any of your numerous readers who may be interested In bearing from - the; -west. To those going to lowa, I would un hesitatingly recommend them to go—if posaible—by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy road, and thence by roads diverging in different direptiov west ward from Burlingtcm. ; The Burlington Cedar Rapids and Minnesota route runs through the most thickly settled , part of the noble State of lowa, where are to be seen on every hand cultivated farms and all the evi dence of comfort itself and prosperity. The country between Chicago .and Burlington, in Illinois, where we have magnitioent levels of green ocean and finely improved lands, and complete in every devise to utilize laboryto prepare and bring of the cereals and products generally. A market is readily found in the promising embryo cities along this line. Intelligence, church and school influ ence here, are second to none In the world. However, this is no more pecu liar to Illinois than lowa, and when the latter State is more filled up we shall see her eclipse all her sister States in this respect; for in either State you never see even a hamlet without its churches and school building,whilat it seems that in the country t here are excellent schools every mile. Does not this prognosticate greatly for the future of the West? We, in this too much settled country, seem to have but a faint conception of the thrift and plenty that crowns the labors of our western friends, and whose only trials are that they cannot make money fast enough—be always the possessors of large flocks of cattle, swine, etc., and who are not content to go slow in thus accumulating when fairly started for tune is assured therein stock raising. The cultivated lands along the C. B. & Q. R. R and Illinois Central Railroads, are held at such high figures, that in most. cases the emigrant Is unable to buy, but needs to push on further west to purchase lands cheap and make his own improvements, which may be constitu ted cheaply and will answer for tempo rary use, so that when he begins to raise crops he can pay on his land, keep his family, and by degrees make his per manent improvements. To those desir ing such the Burlington and Missouri River Railroad, offers the most unparal leled inducements, and selling to the settler at fair price and on terms that en ables the man not afraid to work and who has any enterprise whatever, to pay for his home from the products of the farm. These lands aro both fertile and in a salubrious climate, and in the best part of the State. The latitude is south Is this some degrees, and between the main markets, viz : on the Missouri on the west and the Mississiffi on the east, although intermediate markets are always to be found. A farm capable of producing the larg est crops its iu the reach of all on the terms offered by this road. To those preferring Nebraska, this road has equal inducements and good soil and beauti ful crops on it all. Geo, S. Harris, esq., is the land com missioner at Burlington, lowa, who may be addressed for valuable informa tion on the subject, and who will be. pleased to answer all inquiries in the premises. M.

The fact is apparent to all that many of the grog shops continue to sell as heretofore, and that, various parties both in this land from adjoining counties sell and hank about our streets both malt and distilled liquors and agents of dealers frogs the cities frequently visit our citi zens to solicit and receive their orders for liquors, clearly in violation of both law and good order. The"UniOn" will meet at the M. E. Church in Rochester on Tuesday, July nil 1873, at 10 oclock a. m. We invite all friends and lovers of right and their fellow man to meet with us, for now is the time to strike and save the cause of Prohibition from being trampled upon by these law defying beings who would rob us of all that is dear to us, and give us instead all the miseries and sorrows known to man. Pastors of the christian church are requested to present this to their charges and urge their attention, that we may have a full turn out of the temperance strength and adopt such measures and plans as may best secure the end we all seek.

One of the most trying things on a hot day is a long sermon, and many a poor soul is driven from the church by the infliction of a discourse that forever makes him averse to the balance of the service, which otherwise would be ac ceptable and pleasant to him. Two of the best sermons ever delivered proba bly did not occupy over ten minutes each. We allude to Christ's sermon on the Mount. and Psul'a diagonals on May -HU Let the preacher boiPlown his sermon instead of boiling his audi ence. We see it noted that a cat at West port Conn., which had her tail and ears frozen off last wint4 has given birth to a litter of earlea d tailless kittens. Thus we see what might be the origin of a new species, and a link in the devel opment theory illustrated. For our part, we do not think it any improve ment on the old style of cats. • The new Postal act which went into effect July Ist abolished the "dead-head" system entirely,and provided that postal cards should not be sent through the malls a second time, nor, if uncalled for, -be sent to the Dead Letter Office.

"Commencements" in the rural dis tricts are said to be pleasant always; or rather in the language of an enthusiast Of the gentler type they are :proVeiblal for being 'just perfectly elegant." It was an assurance of this character that induced an adventurous scribe, with a friend, to Journey Beaver-wards on Tuesday to take a band bathe "elegance" of the exercises that liiirtabietHie.gatting the ettentiOn of the toeneepeople for the past week, acid which hive been inci dental to the closing of the eighteenth year in the history of Beaver College and Institute. Te the tarain the pecu liar felicity of the warden at the out start was doubly enhanced by the refu sal of the courteous conductor to stop the train at the proper station. Two "country miles" away from the destina tion In view, with about half a dry goods box of dowers on band and the only outlook ahead, that of being trans formed into pack horses for the trans portation of the fragrancy, over a dnity road and under a smiling and ; very ar dent July sun—such a combination of fortuitions circumstances is very con ductive to meditation, and the meta physics of profanity are likely to be sin gularly attractive. Time. however, and necessity, and a reasonable amount of vitality will generally bring all such matters even.—as was the reknit In this' case,—and thus it came that the twain stslast scaled the heights of Beaver, in season to have a couple of hours ahead of them, to bind up ,their wounds of body and mind, to recover partially from the parboiling suffered in their perambulations, and to restore a mental serenity in consonance of the happy spirit that seemed to everywhere pre vail. Under ordinary circumstances it would be unpleasant for one to hear that his coming had been "rether . ,late," but there are times, 'and this was ode; when the intelligence that a part of the "feast of reason" was over came as a soothing balm, for it brought the end nearer. It seemed that the College people, not sat isfied with providing a "Young Folks' Entertainment," and "Class Exercises," and an "Alumni Reunion," and an "An nual Concert," with other minor exhibi tions, bad reserved for the 'last day. as Barnum says, two " crowning triumphs of their managerial lives." One of these was the Rail dedication—the other the Commencement proper. TIIE NEW COLLEGE HALL, the dedication of which was set apart for Tuesday morning, was looked upon with more than ordinary interest, inas much as it marked a new epoch in the college's history, and seemed to giveev- Idonce of greater future prosperity. During the past year or so, the artisans have been busy at the college, and the result of their labors is a four-storied brick addition to the old building, which has increased the capacity of the school so that eighty additional pupils can be accommodated the next term. The ad- dition cost $30,000, one-third of which was contributed by one of our business men, Capt. John F. Dravo. end the re mainder secured principally through the example of his munificence and his personal effort. The structure now presents a sort of modernized Norman architectural appearance, and is about as handsome and imposing as can be de sired In a college building. The hall is located in an upper story of the new wing. It is not large,Aint is well lighted and ventilated, and fur nished with memorial windows, fres coes, and in a style to make it very at tractive. Its dedication, served as a re dedication of the whole building to edu cational purposes. The dedication hour was fixed at ten o'clock. Those who were there concur in the opinion that the audience in attendance might have been larger, but the exercises hardly more interesting. The speakers an nounced for the occasion were Rev. Bishop Simpson, Rev. Dr. E. 0. Haven, Chief of the Educational Board of the Church, and Capt. John F. Bravo. The first _ and bud gentlemen appeared in time, but of course It would never do to have the programme carried out to the letter, and an Dr. Haven failed to make the haven of Beaver,-and it wainecessa ry to proceed without him. In doing so, the choir first filled up the time mu sically with three anthems, Which were succeeded with prayer by LIM Rev. Dr. Hunter, of the Pittsburgh drisiias A (I vocafe. THE //AM DEDICATED Then came forward Mr. Dravo with ono of his impromptu characteristic ad dresses, in which be bad a good deal to say complimentary of "Beaver City" and not much less of Beaver College, and something of the importance of fe male education, and lastly of the plea sure it gave him to hand the institution over to the Bishop for dedication. This gave the Bishop an opportunity to :first lead the people in a brief dedicatory ex ercise *wording to a formula of his own, and then to addreis them for about an hour on the uses to which the building was to be deiroted. The Bishop spoke of female education in general and gave the pupils some wise counsel in refer ence to the beet means of taking advan tage of their opportunities, so as to ac quire the greatest good from their colle giate training. In the development of his theme he was led somewhat into metaphysical dessertatious upon mind growth. Delivered before a very criti cal audience of ministers and students and lay-people ] it was universally pro nounced worthy of the speaker's fame, and that is a sufficient endorsement of the intellectual treat afforded. After the address -half an hour was whiled away in collecting about $BOO to pay for a $l,OOO window dedicated to the Alumni, and which adorns the rear wall of the Hall. This part Of the services was highly entertaining—to those who took in tho funds—but the other aide didn't seem to relish It so well, attd all Weil) glad when theyt ware pennlited to depart for dinner. The afternoon Was occupied by the Al umni -Association with a business meet ing, the older folks with delicious snoozing, and by the younger with promenading and social oeurtesiesinci dental to the feliettious Inspiration.. of the occasion There were at last several indications that the Commencement exercises prop er were near at hand. First by the gen eral rustle within the sacred precincts of the college walls, like the twittering of birds when excitement inspires them; and second by the appearance of some life and animation in the streets of the beautiful town—for it is one of the lov liest summer retreats Oyes ever irked uPoi. GATHERING FOR "COHRENCERENT." "Time and tide," it is an old saying, "wait for no man;" but not so much could be said of the young performers, for they were compelled to wait for the men and women and children to gather. Professor Taylor, who has charge of the College, was quite emphatic in his in nouncement that at six and one-half o'clock sharp, the exercises must begin. Several misguided visitors gathered at the exact time and had the happiness of noting the movements of a frailty jani tor and calculating the chances for his falling from his ladder and furnishing a subject for the Coroner, while turning on the oil lamp lights.

The lightning, however, has not yet ren dered any damage in this county, but the severe rains have made the roads very Inconvenient for pedestrians, es pecially the narrows leading from Fall sten to Bayer Fells. The hill at two or three different points has slid down in such large quantities that It is almost unable to be traveled upon at present. Tne other day, while in Beaver Falls, we wade Its point to come by way of the narrows, and In so doing almost swamped uur horse; but, we presume, our enterprising friends at Pension are DOW busily engaged in removing the obstruction. Below we give for the ben efit of our readers a short quer** of the damage rendered by lightning in our neighboring counties: Mr. Wm. McClain, residing near the alma house, had thirty five sheep killed in a pasture field. In the neighbor hood of Maysville it strap!" eral places bat did no harm. Monun gauge City a bolt struck Mr. Bowman's new house, following the conductor down • a short distance, bored its way through a brick wall. tore the head of a nail off inside and drove it through a led pipe—letting the water out of a bath tank -and following the lead pipe to the cel lar where a colored man was engaged ar ranging the pipe, there shook bands with him and ran down his leg into the ground. The damages did not amount to much. Mr. James D. Huston, meld- Ing at, Lone Pine, had his dwelling struck, the fluid passing down the chim ney albs cooking stove, Mrs. Huston, who was cooking at the time, was badly shocked. At first it was feared she , would not recover. She is st present out of danger. At the same time and place Mr. Cephas Chamberlin's dwelling had the shingles torn off the roof, add Mr. Geo. Chamberlin, who was working in the garden was severely shocked by the same bolt. About the same time the lone phis tree that gives name to the vil lage was somewhat shattered. Several young gentlemen while sitting opposite some shade trees in the borough of Washington were severely stunned. Onsznyza. A terriffic storm visited that county south-west of Waynesburg, Tuesday evening of week before last. Trees of all kinds were unroofed. Mr. Jesse Blair had his stable struck by lightning, and at the same time killing an ox Mr. Thos. Bond bad a steer killed by lightning or the falling of a tree; corn fields were badly washed. it is be lieved to be one of the most frightful storms that was ever experienced in that county. On the 27th ult., the lightning visited the house of Mr. George Fisher, a short distance from Holmesville. The light ning pursued its course toward the chim ney, tearing off shingles and scattering brick.

The Fourth at North Sewick ley.—The 4th of July was observed in a good, old-fashioned way by the Sunday School of the Providence Baptist Church. The Presbyterian Sunday School, having been invited to participate in the festivi ties of the occasion, united most heartily in the enjoyments of the day. There was a very large concourse of people present from the surrounding country, as well as from the towns. Many of the young folks from town found themselves at home among their "country cousins." Old and young %lake enjoyed the services In the church and the festivities in the grove. Nothing occurred to mar the peace of the large company present. The singers of the church, led by Mr James J. Hazen, (Miss Addic 31. Bennet presiding at the organ,) and a band of music belonging in the neighb3rhood. enlivened the occasion with excellent and appropriate music. Mr. Thos. J. Irwin was chosen Presi dent, Messrs. Hugh Thompson, James Mercer, Theophilus Fombelle, Jacob Wooster, Robt. Wilson and James Boots, Vice Presidents; and Dr. J. M. Hazer. and 31. F. Mecklan, Secretaries. An address of welcome to the Presby. terian School was delivered by the Pastor of the church, Rev. W. B. Skinner. Ap propriate and excellent addresses were also delivered by the young and talented gentlemen of the neighborhood, Messrs, Bend erson Jackson and Christopher Hay en. After this, the large company repaired t o the grove, where en excellent and abundant dinner was prepared under the direction of well-chosen and efficient com mittees. After a delightful afternoon of social enjoyment in the grove, the company sep. &rated, feeling happy in the privilege of uniting in such cheerful and agreeable society. Though the Presbyterian Church is weak and without a Pastor, the Sunday School interests are not neglected. With the earnest cooperation of zealous work ers not in connection with the church, a school is sustained, and in good working order. The school of the Baptist Church numbers two hundred scholars. The Pastor is Superintendent, and is ably as sisted by Mr. Nathaniel Hazen. The Rev. Mr. Skinner has been with the church, la Pastor, nine months, dur ing - which time forty have been added to its membership, and the congregation has increased in size until the need of a larger house of worship is felt, - and the church now contemplates enlarging the present building, to meet the wants of the congregation.

R, St New Brighton, Pa. A Light Fingered Gentry Ar rested.—On Friday last, while Bar num's circus was in Rochester, quite a number of our citizens of this county had their pockets Tided. Among the numerous ones was a lady named Robinson of Freedom, who had her pocket book containing two aye dol lar gold coins and two checks—oue for one hundred dollars and the other for forty dollars—stolen by Willie Oyler, formerly of Bridgewater, but new the leader of a gang of professional thieves of Allegheny City, who had his leg cut off on Sunday about seven years ago at the glass house in the former place, Detective McLaughlin of Barnum's . cir cus caught him in the act of stealing Mrs. Robinson's pocket book in the cir cus, arresting him, the detective took him to the Justice's o flice,w here the lady described the contents of her pocket book which were found to be similar to hose of the one Oyler had stolen. He was placed_ in the lock-up at that place, and on Saturday morning 'constable Miller brought him here and lodged him In the jail, and it was agreed to let him stand a trial. But his spirit panted for freedom, and in about two hours after he was in jail through the influence of some of his gang a ladder —he.does not state what kind—was arranged and be dumb over the wail, stole silently away and crossed the river at Phillipsburg. Immediately after Sheriff White missed his prisoner he started on pursuit of him, and finding that he could not overtake him, crossed the river at Freedom and telegraphed to Allegheny city that a re ward of twenty dollars was offered for his recapture. Oyler subse quently recrossed the river in the vicinity of Sewickley and got into a freight car for Pittsburgh. OM car David Jones, of Mayor Callow's force, suspecting that Oyler was on the freight train kept an eye on the cars as t hey passed Federal street, and finally spied a crutch protruding from the door ofone otthem. He then got the brake man to flag the train and pushed the door shut. Alter which he demanded an unconditional. surrender from Oyler. William bellowed like a bull calf (or a few minutes, but finding no echo in the judicial heart of his captor he changed It for an air of bravado, which be has since maintained.
