WHAT A BUCKEYE SAW IN MIS
SOURI.
DrrisKcE, OHIO, Nov., "th, 1878.
KPTTOA REPORTER just re
turned from a trip io Versailles
Morgan county, Mo.. I wish {to give you a
few items which may be of interest to your
many readers. The climate of that coun
try is salubrious, and to a physician, dis
gustingly healthful. The surface of the
country Uvatied by timber'and prairie;
about twice as much timber as prairie, and
both are well adapted to agriculture,
though the limber bottoms are the surest
for wheat The country is peculiarly
adapted to stock raising ; have seen im
mense herds of cattle, mules and horsas.
The prairie country reminds of Lancaster
and Bet I;.* counties, in Pennsylvania. It
ia gently undulating, while the monotony
of a prairie view is pleasantly broken by
frequent belts of timbei skirting the water
courses. Prairie farms under cultivation
can bo bought at from fifteen to twenty
five dollars per acre; timber land runs
at from five to ten dollars per acre. But
the greatest {attraction, and what struck
ma most particularly, was the immense
deposits of lead in that country. Mining
for lead is comparatively a new thing
there, the mines only being worked since
last Aprils Within two miles of Ver
sailles, the county seat of Morgan
county, {there are four different mines.
At the new Granby Mines the yield aver
ages about 2500 pounds per day to the
shaft, though some days it runs as high as
11,(XO pound*. It require* no unusual
•kill to operate the mino as most of the
parties digging are the farmers from the
country around. Lead is generally found
from 10 to 15 feet below the surface, and
lu thickness is from three to twenty feet-
It is taken out in pieces weighing from
half an ounce to six hundred pounds,
though several chunks w£re found weigh
ing over 10,000 pounds. One party that
commenced work less than five weeks ago,
have taken out 14,000 |>ounds. Mineral
•ells readily at the shafts for S3O per thou
sand. It is not unusual for bosses to make
from $lO to SSO per day. Many are real
iz ng handsome fortunes. Messrs. George
Stover & Decker averaged 2,400 pounds
daily during my sojourn at Versailles
—having been one week visiting the dif
ferent mines and furnaces. Besides load,
other minerals, such as iron and coal
abound in enormous quantities. After in
vesting all my spare cash in mineral lands,
I am homeward bound- The class of
mineral lands above alluded to which six
months ago could not be sold for $ 5
an acre, now readily command from fif
teen to twenty flvedollars and many.douDt
less in less than one year will bring three
times that amount. That country is most
in need of men with picks and shovels
who have got the energy to go to work,
and nerve and muscle to keep to it; but
there is no encouragement for those who
who would wish to obtain their livelihood
by their wits. Money, though not plenty
in tLe we.t, there seems to be no scarcity
of it there. Yours, Respectfully,
J. it. Kkkxdkk.
EXECUTION OF WA UK TERR!
HLKSCKNK ON TH .< SCAFFOLD
Williamsport, IV, November (1. -A!
forty minutes pa*t one o'clock to-day an
attempt was nia.le to hang Wade, but tin
rope was too long, and he touched tin
ground Wade told the jailor to hurry u|
as lie had an appointment to dine in he!
with the Devil at two o'clock, lie sai
the only thing troubled him i, whelhei
the people he murdered are in heaven oi
hell.
The rope being too long, hit leel struck
•quarely on the ground in this posiliot
he remained, •liouling. "O, letrd, liavt
1 mercy."' The rope came off his neck, ami
his body fell over heavily on the ground
He was carried upon the scaffold, and, af
ter a long delay in arranging the rope, tli*
drop was again pulled. He fell thu tittle
less than three feet. His pulse coutinued
to brat for seven minute*. After hanging
twenty-seven minutes, he wa* placed in a
colli a and taken charge oi by his friends
Many pieces of rope were cut oil and car
ried away as relic* by the spectator*
The Gaavtte and Bulletin say s that on
Monday lngbt he tried to escape lie had
got posses-ton of a Iliifs ami tile On that
night he requested officer Stryker to dis
tribute >oiiio of the provisions he had in
his cell among the prisiener*. Stryker
carried out one lot, and was about to lak<
the second, whensbe*wa* seiied with a
suspicion lhatlhcro was something wrong
Looking closely he discovered that \\ ade
had been tampering with his collar, but
without mistrust, Stryker informed the
Sheriff what had transpired I'bief t'odcr
was sent for; also Mr. Ju-on Van Buskirk,
•on of the Sheriff, who is a machinist, U>
put a plate u|h>ii the collar to make It *c
cure. L'pou the arrival of Chief Coder
the cell was estered. when it was found
that the collar had been filed off, and it
was slipped off the neck with perfect ease.
Wade then took from the water pi(H> the
file. Complaining that he felt cool, he
was allowed to put en his pauts, when he
was seen to make a quick motion, placing
something in his meulh. He was asked
what it was. 11* replied it was money,
and he intended to swallow it. No soon
er said than Chief Coder seised him by
the throat, and cbaked him until he
•ireu-hrd out lull length pretending to be
dead. The attempt was then made to
open his jaw> with a key, but ot no avail.
In a short time he wade a move, when
the Chief ordered him to spit out the mon
ey. This ho rvfuMwl to do, and the officer
again Ikstened upon his neck iu earnest,
choking the prisoner until he opened hi*
mouth and allowed the money to roll out
—fifty-nine dollars iu greenbacks. The I
cell was then searched ; upon thu wall
hung a photograph of the prisoner, and
upon removing it a hole was discovered in i
the wall, in which was found cunningly,
secreted a tbree-bladed knife. Tbe prison
er as thcu removed to another cell, hit',
collar plated and a new bed procured, so 1 ,
that ao implements could be secreted ,
around him. His plan was as follows I,
While officer Stryker was distributing the |
provisions among the prisoners, he intend- ,
ed to slip eff his collar, dart out of his,|
cell into the hall, open the door, and ina| (
moment be at liberty on Third street, ltj,
was shrewdly planned, but fortunately t
checked by the officer.
Wade told many of his exploits with
seeming relish He had killed many inen| (
and women on tbe frontier, he said, lid'
ended the interview by saying.
Gentlemen, this is getting to be a great
country, whun a few rich men rule the na
tion and the poor must suffer. It is time,
to put a stoff to it. The people are going
to the devil as fast as they can.
Tlio trial lasted a week. Insanity was
his counsel's defence. The jury were out;
twenty-four hour*. Wade was told in his
cell that they were slow in arriving at a ,
conclusion, and he answered, "Well, if 1 ;
was among them with the club 1 used on '
the Mcßride*. I'll bet I'd make them
•Rfce."
HORRIBLE I>KKI> COMMITTED BY

ISIANA ALMOST INCREDIBLE
DKI'TII OF INFAMY DISPLAYED
BY AN OFFICER.
New Orleans November 1.-A letter
from exjuv ge Merrill, dated Colfax, Grant
parish, October 29, ay: In hate, and'
with fee'-ings of horror I write to inform
the public of the action of the Metro
politan police sanl here by Lieuteuant-
Governor Antoine, during the absence of
Governor Kellogg. On Saturday night the
bouse of a most icspectable widow lady
on Red River was fired into near ibis
place. Tha doors were broken open, and
the unfortunate lady and her daughter, a
girl of seventeen summers, were cruelly
assaulted. Neither of the ladies could he
found until laic on Sunday alternoon
An infant, e.ghtcen months old, and a
grandchild of ex-Governor V\ ells, was
found out in the woods some half a mile
from the bouse and near tho spot where
the foul deed wa* perpetrsUod The infant
was a niece of tbe lady, and a child oft
Mumfoid Wells, oldest *on of ox-Guv er
nor Well* the negroes up here all say that
it was the soldiers, but* we all believe if
they were not the perpetrators, they Ipsti
gated the negroes to the Jliorrible deed of
infamy; it is said here that when Colonel
l)e Klyne was informed of the outrage he
smiled and said hi* troops were up here for
a higher purpose than to arrest inen for
mere pettv offences. Antoine is believed
to have sent these creatures up here, U>
give tho negroes a chance for rcvengo, and,
one of them told the writer that he had,
a right now under the protection of the
United States, to shout any white man
he wanted to shoot, and violate any wo
man he met I said to him that these were
State troops, and lie replied that the
Colonel had said at a negro ball the night
before that he wanted al 1 the colored peo
ple to come and see him and that, now
they could do as they please, as they were
under protection of the soldiers.
Hall's Journal ol health declares that
"the rule should be everywhere during
the part of the year w hen fires are kepi'
burning, t> avoid hoisting outside win
dows. It is safer ar.d better to leave the
chamber door open, as also the fireplace,
then there is a draft up the chimney, while
the room is not so likely to become cold.
If there is some fire in tho room all night
the window may bo opened an inch. It
is atfer to sleep in a bad air all night; with
a temperature over fifty, than n pure air
with a temperature under forty. The bad
air may sicken you but cannot kill you;
the cold air can and does kill very often
by lung diseases."
IMPORTANT I)K< I*ION.— We understand
that the County Court last week decided a
point that particularly interests the auc
tioneer, the bidder, and the person mak
ing public sale. —The case was this : A
farm was "knocked down" to a bidder,
who afterwards refused to comply with
the terms because no one but the auction
eer bid against him. Tha rase Was taken
into Court; the auctioneer being a wit
ness, testified that the purchaser's alnta
ment was correct, And the court declared
the sale a fraudulent one and not valid.
The substance of this decision is, in plain
words, that an auctioneer ha* no right to
"run up" on a bidder simply to make a
good sale. Let all tako warning.— Banner
of Liberty, Md.
Lebanon, Pa., November 4. —An at
tempt was made last r.ight to burn this
city, it being fired at flyu different point*.,
but owing to the efficiency of our fire de
partment the city was saved. A valuable
barn owned by Hon. Josiah Tunck was
entirely destroyed ; insured. Also a large
barn owned by Henry Laudcrrailch, with
all this year's grain and one hundred tons
of hay. The barns contained all of this
year's grain, a valuable collection of agri
cultural implements, and the structures
were Urge and costly barns.
A later dispatch reduces the loss to
$20,001) for each barn at the fire last
night.

The returns of the election on
Tuesday 4th, continue to he inspirit
iug. Democratic victories ami Dem
ocratic gains are coming from all
directions, The wave which started
iu Ohio iu October has swept over
New York, Maryland, Virginia,
Michigan, Kansas, and Wisconsin,
wiping out Republican majorities
It has also touch -d Radical Massa
chusetts and accomplished almost
miraculous results there. Even car j
jh'l bag riddcu Mississippi ha* felt the
shock, the Republican majority there
living reduced.
Io New York the eutire Demo
cratic State ticket is elected by a ma
jority over rather than below 15,0(8). i
To wipe out n livpublicau utajori-j
IV of 55,000 urn! elect the Democratic,
State ticket by 15,000 and reduce tbtj
Republican majority of twoWhirda inn
both branches of the Legislature to 1
a hare majority, is a glorious workj 1
for one day.su New York.
The meagre returns from Mississippi
show a large reduction of the Radical
majority hi that Slate, sufficient, il
they continue in the same ratio, to
defeat General Butler's son-in
law.
•In Kausa.- -once bleeding Kansas ;
the |>eople seem to have at last been
aroused, and have elected an anti-'
Republican legislature of almost two
to one.
The farmers have repudiated the!
Potueroy#, Caldwell#, and the Ad
miuistniliou jHililiciaus of that
State.
The Democratic gains yesterday
announced in the Fifth Congressional
District of Michigan have swollen to
a complete Democratic victory, elect
tug thn member of Congress.
The Democrat# have gaiued twelve
luemhors iu the lower house of tin
New Ji-rsev Legislature, reducing the
Republican majority t >- x in that
i.ousc and thirteen on joint ballot.
Virginia, has been swipt trum the
mountains to the seaboard, by the
Conservatives, aud General Kciuper'•

In Wisconsin u complete political
revolution has taken piaco. A State
which gave Grant 18,000 majority j
is now carried by the Democratic
candidate for Governor, by at least
,5,000 majority. Milwaukee rolls up
a magnificent anti-Republicans nia
jorily ofß,ooo. The Republicans also >
lose an United States Senator from!
this State. The result seals the fate
of Matt Carpenter.
In Illinois the Republican caudi
dates-for county officers have been:
defeated almost everywhere they have
dared to show themselves. The Fee-1
pie's ticket lia's been elected iu Chcago.

Massachusetts, which gave (irant
74,000 majority, now elects Washburn 1
Governor hy a scanty 12,000 or'
13,000 majority. All the large cities'

THE BURNING OF SINGKRLY'S
STATE PRINTING ESTABLISH
MENT—HEAVY LOSS OF PROP
ERTY AND STATE AND OTHER
PAPERS.
On Wednesday morning, slb, a tire oc
curred in the otlicc of Benjamin Singerly
at Harri.-burg, which resulted in the des
truction of that building, one of the finest
and largest of its kind in Pennsylvania.
Harrisburg dispatches state that over one
hundred men and women were employed
in the building. A great rush was made
lor the windows on the second floor, all
other egress having been shut oft A
great number of persons congregated on
the outside, and rendered all the assistance
po.-cible. Ladders were procured, and
most of the woineiuescaped in this manner.
Several of them, becoming excited, leaped
from the windows at a height of 26 feet,
but escaped injury, being caught in the
arm* of the men congregated below.
Among the property destroyed were
1,600 copira of 1.2U0 page* of the constitu
tional convention journal; iM.OOO school re
port* complete ; about 10,000 copiea of con
stitutional convention debate*, containing
seven volume* ; 0,000 topic* soldier* or
phan report*: 6000 teacher*' monthly re
port*; 6000 copiea of achool law* ; a t*>r
tion of the slate treasurer'* report* and
bureau ol tatitica, and many thouaai d
schol ho)U of the Osgood's terie*, which
were printed at thi* oflico. The nianu
aeript of the in*l four day'a proceeding* of
the constitution!!! convention were aiao
destroyed Among the article* burned
were the dobale* wliieh the constitutional
convention contracted to take off the hand*
ol" Mr. Hingerly at $1 .HO a copy, or about
$19,000 in all. The lu* ill the debate* i*
estimated at SAO,OOJ. Thousand* of dol
lars wortli of paper belonging to the slate
wn burned. The entire loss by the des
tiuction of the building and content* i*
$200,000, all of which fall on Mr. Singer

Bavarian-
Eight IVrnon* Executed by Ik
bending.
A curfMpondtit of the London
times gives the following sooouilt of
an rseoution at Ye<bb> in Japan; 1
The eulpriu worn eight iu numbsr
olio being a woman. They wera all
belittadoif with n word. % l*he opera
l ion was per lon an I with wonderful
dextsrily and coolneaa and nut one of
them even the woman, showed the
•lightest symptom* of fear. There
wns a space of ground roped off. inside
were three holes dug iu the ground
with a little mound behind each, on
which was spread n mat for the crin •
iual to knee! on. On one side of the
I enclosure were two Japanese officials,
in chairs to see the thing properly
conducted. I had n place directly in
front of the mounds, at about six feet
distance. The criminals were placed
in a row, on one side of the enclosure,
blindfolded with pieces of paper (tbey
use ua|>er for everything here).
W hut struck mo moat was the hor
rid coolness of the executioner's assis
tant, a good-looking lad of about 18 ;
h * went up to each poor wret h in bis
turn, gave him a tap on the shoulder,
1-d him up to the mound, and made
him kneel on the mat; he then strip
ptd hi* shoulders, made him stretoh
out hi* neck, said 'That will do" aud
in u flush the man's head was iu the
hole in front of him, and his bleeding
neck was, as it were, staring me io
the face. The assistant, alill with the
a.ime pleasant smile, picked the head
up threw some water over the faoe to
wash off the blood aud mud, and pre
sent • I it to the Japanese officials,
who nodded and sigucd to go ou with
the next; the assistant then gave the
corpse a blow between the shoulders
to ex pel the blood, and liually threw
the carcass aside tike a log of wood,
lie then repeated the same pleasant
programme with the next.
I never thought a man's head could
come ofl* so easily ; it was like chop
ping cabbages, only accompanied witb
a peculiar anil moat horrid sound— ,
that of cutting meat, in fact. There
was a dense crowd of Japanese present, '
including many women, and even
children; these people never ceased to
eat, smoke, aud chatter the whole
lime, making remarks on the perform- i
auce, aud even occasionally laughing, h
just as if they were at a theatre. Tbj'
executioner poured water on hi*!,
isword between each decapitation, as •
one wets a knife in order to cut India '
rubber.

SUGAR BEETS FOBS WINK.
Jonathan Tslcott gives a statement in j
the Boston Cultivator f an experiment's
jM-rformcd on a Suffolk pig where sugar ,
beets were largely employed for fattening. ,
The animal was about a year old, and the *
feeding on boiled sugar beets, lop* and,*
root, began on the 16th of August, and was
continued three times a day until the 1st 1 ,
of October, after which ground feed was
given, consisting of two |>arts of corn and j
one of oUfthree times a day, till ths ani
mat was slaughtered, the meal being mix- 1
vd with cold water. The result was, on
the 10th of August, when the sugar beet'
feeding was begun, that the weight was'
dOD lbs.; September Ist 460 lbs. ; Ocleber |
! Ist, 4'jo lb*. ; November Ist, 6'JO lbs.
>i* the substance of the statement given, by j
which we perceive that the increase Mnce
| last of August, when fed on boiled sugar
beets, was at the rale ot two pounds per
j Jay ; the same rate of increase on the same
. food continued through September.
When fed en ground corn and oats made
into cold slop, the gain for the next fifty
days was less than a pound and a half per
j day.
