of the sociable was held at the icside nca of II.

programme was departed from, In that it was
n ma-querado party Instead of the ordinary
gathering where full dress is strictly prohibited.
Owing lo the heavy snow storm that prevailed
all day the participants wero gathered up in
carriages, and by nine o'clock, the house was
filled with a motley crowdljho music, was
furnished by Prof. Sloes orchestra of Danville.
and up to two o'clock In the morning there was
a sound of revelry and the hurrying to and fro
of many feet. At half past ten the masks were
removed when many were astonished lo find
what ludicrous mistakes they had made in the
Identification of certain persons. Thcro were
costumes elegant, costumes bright, costumes
sombre, costumes warlike, and costumes gro
tesque. This Is the first parly of the kind ever
given here, and it was undoubtedly a complete

Tho farm of Daniel F. Seybert, one mile
north of Berwick, near the line of the D. L. &
W. railroad, was the scene of a fatal and sicken
ing accident early Tuesday morning. Mr. Sey
bert, with his adopted son, William D.Seybert,
aged about 20 years, set about cleaning the well
near tlje house. The young man was descend
ing into the well, holding lo a ropo attached to
llie windlass witli Ids hands, while wilh his
feet lie was feeling his way cautiously down the
side of the stone cribbing. When down about
a third of the way the stones loosened by his
feet began to crumble into the well and In an
Instant the mass of earth and stone closed over
his head, burying him alive. Mr. Seybert
caught hold of the rope but it slipped from his
grip, taking with it the skin and flesh from the
inside of Ms hands. The well was ninety feet
deep, hlch made the work of digging the body
out a terrible anil lenglliysiupeiue. uy Wednes
day noon the df plh of 70 ftct was reaches,
where the mangled and lifeless body was found,
after a burial of some thlrty-slx hours. Tho
force of the heavy weight uisjh his head frac
lured the skull In several places, The breast
bono was broken and crushed in, and the left
leg cramped and broken. Ills distorted feat
ures plainly Indicated that he met death In lis
most excruciating form. The utmost excite

which Bceined to increase from the time of the
accident until the body was exhumed.

It is rumored that tho murderer of a negro in
Foundrywtlc, this county, was nrrosled in Lu
zerne county last week. Tin; murder took
place prior to 1805 and tho e-ircumtnnees we-ro
peculiarly aggravating. A divpcrndo from
Berwick drove out the proprietor of 11 hotel nt
I eiunilnille and was running tho bar himself.
A negro happened to bo passing along when
hu was accosted by this desperado and invited
to come in nnd drink. This the negro respect
fully declined to do when the villian drew a re
volver and fhot tho colored man through the
heart from the efl'ect of which he died at once.
Tim murderer betook himself to tho woods,
and being well nrmed the citizens feared to ar
rest him. It is said ho has resided m Luzerne
ever since. It is lo bo hopid that tho report
of bis arrest is true and that he will bo brought
to justice for 11 crime that richly descne-s the
severest punishment. ltymblictui.
The uiurderid man, wo believe, was named
Stookey, nnd tho murderer was hidings- Wo
iegret to say that the latter has not been arrest
ed at least be has not been brought here.
The authorities could hno had him at anytime
if they wanted him. If he had stolen some
chickens we presume ho would have been
promptly arretted, but Justice sleeps in this
County when a human life lias been taken. The
Van Liew case is auother example. Hud the
murderers been "Mollie Muguiri's," ofihvrs of
tho law would hnu been on their heels long
ago.

Legislative- Correspondence.
ItAluttsnURO, Feb. G, 1878.
Five weeks havo niv elapsed since the
Legislature met, and nlthough there has been
a good ileal nf hard work but little of perma
nent good lias been accomplished. Now,
more than ever, it is apparent that much
valuable time has been wasted by nut taking
up the old calendar and completing unfin
ished bits'iucss. Nearly two-thirds of the
bills im thai calendar have been re-introduced
during the present session and will lime
to bo ground over ngain in the legislate e
mill. Many of thoe had advanced lo third
reading nnd could have been finally disposed
11I In a very short time, while under the
present arrangement some of them will not
be reached at all. If members keep on in
troducing bills at the rato Ihcy are doing
there will be about 1,500 bills on the calen
dar before the Legislature adjourns. It is
safo to say that three-fourths of tbeso will
never be acted upon for want of time. In
fact the glory of Introducing a bill and see
ing their names in print the next day is all
.-time statesmen seem to care about. What
becomes of the bill afterward is comparative
ly of little moment.
The Frco Pipe line bill, though defeated
in the Senate, is not yet given up by its
friends. It seems to be considered, both by
iti advocates and opponents, to be tho nio-.t
important in its bearings of any measure
that has been introduced in the Legislature
for years. When it was defeated in the Sen
ate by a vote of 10 to 24 it was generally
upposed to have received its death-blow,
and its friends were very much discouraged.
The sumo bill, however, lias been introduced
in the Hnuse and an exntniti.ilion of parlia
mentary authorities reveals the fact that if
the House pas the bill the Senate can con
sider it ngain, in which case its friends hope
to cll'ect enough changes in the votes of Sen
ators to pa-s it.
Some curious and interesting facts have
been developed in regard to the Standard
Oil On., of which .lay Gould and Wm. II.
Vanderbilt ar said to be tho principal stock
holders, and tho cll'ect it has produced since
it became a power in tho oil bu-iness. From
the year 18(50 to 1872 055,000,000 gallons of
refined eiil were exported to Europe at an
average price of 31 cents a gallon, bringing
in round numbers the mm of :flS7,000,000.
Alter tho Standard obtained control of the
bu-ine-s In 1S72, the exports from the latter
date to 1870 were 1,100,000,000 gallons at 1111
average price of 15 cents a gallon, amount
ing to $105,000,000, or $22,000,000 le-s than
the first lour years, although the nmount ex
ported was doubled. The producers claim
that they wero compelled to double their la
bor aud cspctio to produce tho incrca-ed
amount but were defrauded out of a a lair
price for it by the power of tho monopoly.
It is now ascertained that tho Standard has
leased or bought the right of way over iilty
miles of territory encircling the citv of Pills-
burg, and have secured a complete cordon of
territory surrounding tho whole Bradford
oil district, thus preventing tlte laying ol
any rival pipe lines out of this di-trict or
into the city of Pittsburg. They now refu-c
to run the oil of the Bradford operator-,
whoso tanks are ovcrllowing on the ground,
so that they may crush them out and buy up
for a song the whole producing intere-t, just
as they havo tho refining and transporting
interests.
Tho evening of Tue-day, Feb. 12, ha
been set apart for tho consideration of the
local option bill in tho House. This order
was merely adopted out of courtesy to the
friends of tho measure nnd is 110 Indicaliuii
of the tftrencth of tho bill. In fact it has no
strength with tha pre-ent Legislature and if
necessary its opponents can command a two
thirds voto against It. This is well known
by its supporters, but they are a plucky ml
of fellows nnd seem determined to oiler bat
tlo upon all occasions, 110 matter what the
odds may be against them.
The committee appointed to investigate
tho Httsburg riots seem to be perfectly sat
isfactory to tho Allegheny delegation and
will visit the scene of their labors in a few

The colored cadet business does not work
well at Went l'oint. Smith failed ; Flipper
graduated, but had a hapless tinio during his
term of study, and now Minnie has failed in
his examination in mathematics, because of
despondency caused by tho ill-treatment ho
received from tho whito cadets who refu-o to
tocially rccognizo colored students. The prej
udico of race is very strong at tho Academy,
and in no less strong among tho Jtepublicans
than among tho Democratic white boy?.
Colored cadets havo a u'ry rough roadlo
travel kforo they can get through, and tho
chtinces'aro that there will not bo many appll
cations for admission to West Point by col
ored youths hereafter. Tho conduct of the
whito students in wean and cowardly, but
thcro is 110 reason to believe that it will ever
bo changed. At the Naval Academy at An
napolis the prcjudico is as great, perhaps, as
at AVost Point, and it is scarcely probable
thut among tho naval and military heroes of
tho futuio there will lo uiauy ol" African do-

Tho man Shraolc who was mentioned last
week as having died and ootno to life again,
in I'liiladclplii-i, 1ms proven to lo a swindler,
aud ltia womlorful Iranoe nnd vision n well
executed hoax. It was ilono for tho nurposo
of exciting tho sympathy of tho members or
the church to which lio bclongcd,l'or tho pur
lio'o of getting money for li'n support. Tito
doctors pronounce him a healthy man, and ho
has admitted his deception.
We record with profound sorrow tho dealh
of John Miller, Kq., of Chcjter county,
which occurred yoslerelay Philadelphia, Mr.
Miller was widely known as a public man
lie nover held many offices', hut was always
regarded by tho mass of the Democratic par
ty as a safo nnd sagacious leader. II U great
cxoctillvo ability was always sought by thosrj
,w!(0 were called to organize the campaigns
of tho party. In 1874 ho was mado chair
man of tho Stato Committee nnd to his tact
and energy as an organixer tho victory of
that year was in great part due. He had
been tendered tho appointment of chief clerk
of tho Trensury by the State Treasurer-elect,
Col. Noyrs, and had he lived would un
doubtedly havo filled that position. The
death of John .Miller is a sad loss to ills par
ty ami to the State. Patriot,
