The new firm is composed of honest, reliable n.cn, full worthy of a liberal potronage. Our friend, S. G. Guteliut who goes round to break the peoples'jaws, is always as busy as a bee, and jolly as you please. Sam knows how to take out old ackers with satisfaction, and his work is beyond criticism. The Miliheim band improved very much of late. They discoursed music on our streets one evening, last week, and we were surprised at the well trained musical talent they displayed. Mr. A. S.

Miller, of Lewis burg, publishes the annual report of the doings of the Company, which is full of interest to many of our readers. The President shows a substantial progress in the building of the road. There was much delay encountered in the beginning, but it seems now, that not a very long pe riod of time will elapse before Penns Val- Jey will have egress by rail. It appears bv the repoTb that the part of the line from Penna. Furnace to the Western terminus on the Penna. road, near Tyrone, is ready for the railing, being a distance of over 18 miles. The 16 miles of route from Penna. Furnace to Linden Hall, nothing has been done with, owing to financial difficulties. From Linden Ilall East to Beaver Dam, a distance of 18 miles, the road is nc-arly ready. Of the sections east of Beaver Dam, including loj miles, but four miles are finished, and here the work should he pressed more rapidly. The Beaver Dam tunnel, 2GO feet long is all through, save about 40 feet. Another tunnel at Paddy's Mountain, 320 feet long, has simply been worked at the approaches From Mifflinburg to Laurel Run, eight miles, the road is finished. The greater part of the work from there to the 164 mile sections, is completed. The cost of the whole road from Lewisburg junction to Tyrone, 87 miles, is put down at $2,206,- 002.39. There has been paid for right of way $18,507.78. The subscriptions to the capital stock of the company amount to $346,700. The President suys: "Of the $2,000,000.00 ot the first mortgage seven per cent, bonds authorized by law $1,500,- 000.10 have been sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, at what was deemed a reasonable discount, and $45,000.00 were paid over to the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company, as part of the amount that company had advanced in tho con struction of the line between the Junction and Lewisburg leaving $455,000.00 of these bonds undisposed of. The balance due P. & E RR. Co. was paid in stock at par." The total earnings of the road from the J unction to Mifllinburg (11 miles), last year, were $26,729.45; the expense $19,-, 745,571. The net earnings (or profits) in 1871, were $2,660.10, and in 1872, $4,035.- 79, whilst in lbi-t they were $t1,98.'1 94 1 Thus it w ill be seen that the road pays. ■ The Treasurer'# report attached, shows the following.

Towards the close of the Revolution, there lived near where the town of New Berlin now stands, a family named Kline-i smith. A small party of Indians coining upon their dwellings whilst the males of the family were busy in the harvest field! of a neighbor, plundered the house, and! carried awaj two of Klineimith's daugh ters, one sixteen, the other fourteen years v|M- The party retraced to a spring north M New Berlin—now called the Still House Spring—where they halted, and, not satis fled with thq trifling mischief they had done, left their prisonars and booty in the care of the oldest man in the party, whilst the main body proceeded to the harvest field, in the hopes of getting souie scalps to carry home as trophies of their success. The old man lighted his pipe, and sat down at the foot of a tree, keeping an eye upon his prisoners. After some time the rain began to fall, when Betsey, the oldest girl, intimated to the sentinel that she meant to out down some branches from the trees, and cover a small bag of flour which the Indians had brought from her father's house. The Indian, little suspect ing her real intention, assented, and per mitted her to take one of the axes or toma hawks. She pretended to be very busy occupied with her task, but contrived to get behind the eld man, and buried the nxe in his head. By this time the scalping party, finding the harvesters too numerous and well arm ed for their purposes, were on their return, and bad already approached near enough to hear the groan or cry of the old Indian as he fell. The girls fled—the savages pursued and fired. The young girl, just us she was in tho act of {springing over a fallen tree, was pierced with a bullet, which entered below the shoulder blade, and came out at the breast. Bhe fell, and immediately rollod herself under tho log which Ht that point was raised a little from tho ground. The savages sprang over the log, in chase of her sister, without observ ing that any one lay under it. Betsey being a strong and active lass gave thani a bard run, so that the harvest ers, by the firing, came to the rescue in time to save her, and change the pursuers into fugitives. They found the little girl under the fallen tree, much terrified and weakened by the loss of blood, but fortu nately not dangerously wounded, the ball having passed through her body without touching any vital organ. She recovered, and afterwards married a man named Campbell. Becoming a widow, she mar ried again. Her last husband's name was Chambers. Betsey also married, and, with her husband, removed to one. of the West- States.— History of the West Branch. ' RKKCHKB-TIWTON SCAN DAL. f onfiaaei/ frvm 2ud p.iyr, ply to one or more of the most gloomy charges touching the feigned sorrow of my husband (or compulsory revelations I solemnly at ow that long before the Woodhull publication 1 knew him. by in sinuation ntidphree! statement, to have re pealed to my very near relative and friend thesuhstanee .of these accusation* which sheet, the moral sense ef the entire com munity this day. Many tunes, when hear ing that certain persons hail spoken ill of him, lie ties sent me to chide them for so doing, and then and there I learned he had been before me with his calumnies against myself, so that 1 was speechless. The reiteration in hi* ttatsuieut that he had persistency striven to hide theo so called fact* is'utterly false, a* hi* haired to Mr. Ileeehor ha?elisted these many years 'and a determination (o ruin Mr. Rceeher ' has born the one aim of his life, j The sh-xmelet* charges in articles seven, eight and nine are fearfully false in each and every particular. The letter referrsd 'to in Mr Tilten'a tenth paragraph was ob tained from me by importunity and by representations that it was necessary lor I him to uss in hi* then pending difficulties with Mr. liowen. I 1 was then sick nigh utile death, having suffered a miscarriage only four days be fore. I s gued whatever he required with out knowing or understanding its import, l'he pa pet 1 have never seen and do not knew what statements it contained. In charge eighteen a letter of uiiue, addressed to Mr. Francis Moultoii, is quoted lo pros t that I never desired a separation or was advi-ej by Mr. or Mrs. Reedier to leave my husband. I reply, the letter was of Mr Titian'* own concocting, which he induced me lo j copy ar.d to sign a* my own act, which in jtny weakness and mistake 1 thought would help him. 1 have done so too often 'during these unhappy years. I The implication that the harmony of the house was unbroken until Mr. Hsccher | entered it a* a frequent guest or friend, is a lamentable satire upon the household where ho years before laid the corner I stone of free love and desecrated its alters up to the time of my departure, so that the atmosphere was net only Godless but im pure for my children, and in this effort and those of agony 1 would fain lift my .daughters and all womanhood from the [insidious and diabolical teachings of these | latter days. In summing the whole matter 1 affirm myself before tied to be innocent of the crime laid upon me; that 1 never have been guilty of adultery with llenry Ward Beecher in thought or deed, nor hts he ever offered to me an indecorous or im proper proprosal. To the further, charge that 1 was led away from my home by Mr Beechor's triends and by the ad vie* of a lawyer whom Mr. Heecber had sent to me, and who, in advance of my appearing before the committee, arranged with me the ques tions and answers which "were lo consti tute my testimony In Mr.'Beecher'a behalf. 1 answer that this is again untrue, having never seen the lawyer until intro duced to him a few minutes before arriv al of the committee by my stopfather, Judge Morse. The publication of Mr. Tilton's letter in answer to Dr. Bacon, 1 had not known nor suspected, w hen on Wednesday even ing be brought home the Golden Age handing it to me. Looking down its col umns I saw well nigh with .blinding eyes that he had put into circulation the a'most daily threat of his life. That he lived to crush out Mr. Beecher and that the god of battles was in him. lis had always been Mr. Beecher's su perior and all that lay in his path—wife, children or reputation if need be, should fall befere this purpose. 1 did not read it I saw enough without, rending my spirits within me as never'bofore. Theodore, 1 said, "tell me what means these quota tions from Mr Beechsr. Two years ago you came to me at midnight, saying, "Elisabeth, all letters and papers concern ing my difficulties with Mr. Beecher and Mr. Bowen are burned and destroyed; now, don't you destroy me, for I have nothing to defend myself with." " '"Did you believe that' said be. "1 certainly did, implicitly,' said I. "Well then let me tell you they alt live, net one it destroyed." That was said to intimi date me. It had quite the contrary of feet. I have never been so fearless nor teen so clearly before with whom I was dealing. Coming to me a little later he said, "I want you to read it; you will find it a vin dication of yourself. You havo net stood before the community for five years as you now do, roused still further by the wick edness bid behind so false a mask." lieplicd: "Theodore, understand me, this is the last lime you shall call me pub licly to walk through this filth ; my char acter needs no vindication at this late day from you. There was (a time, had you •poke cut clearly, truthfully and manful ly for me, I bad been grateful, but now I shall speak and act for myaelf- "Know also that if in the future 1 tee a scrap of paper referring to any human be ing however remote, which it seemt to me you might use to further your own ends, I will destroy it" "This means battle on your pert, then," he said. "Just so far." I replies!. I wrote this because these word* of tniac he has since used to my barm. The next morning I went.to my brother and told him that now I had decided to act in this matter; that I had been treated by my husband as a nonentity from the beginning—a plaything to be used or let alone at will, and that it bad always seem ed to me that I was a party not little con cerned. On going home I found my husband reading in bed. 1 told him where I had been, and that I did not conceal anything from him. as his habit was to conceal from me. He asked who the gentlemen were, and said no more. He arose, dressed himself arid bade me goodbye forever. The following morning I was awakened by my husband standing by my bed. In a very lender voico he said he wished to see me. I rose instantly, followed him into his room, and sitting on the bedside he drew me into his lap, and said he was proud of me and loved me, that nothing ever gave him such real peace and satisfaction as to hear me well spoken of; that meeting a member of the committee ho found he had been mistaken as to my motive in seeing the committee, and had hastened to assure me that he had been thoroughly wretched since his sharp statement to mo the night before, etc. Then arid there we covenanted sacredly our hearts and lives, I most utterly renew ing my trust in the one human heart I love. The next day how happy we were. Theodore wrote a statement to present to the committee when they should call upon him; to all of which I heartily acceded. This document God knows was a true history of this uffuir, completely vindica ting my honor ar.d the honor of my pas tor. In the afternoon he left me to show it to bis friends. He returned home early in the evening, passing with me the happiest hours I had known for years, renewed by assuring me that there was no rest fer him away from me. $o in gratified love to the dear Father, 1 slept. Oh, that the end had then come; I would not then have received the cruel blow which made a woman mad out right. The next morning he called upon our friends Mr. and Mrs. Ovington and there with a shocking bravado began and a wicked tirade, adding with oaths and a vio- Jface the shameless slanders against Mr. lUrrlier of which I now bolieve hint to bo tlio author Ttiia fearful ncriii 1 learned ilio next day.

HEECHEK S STATEMENT. 1 do not propose thu time a detailed exam illation ef the remarkable statement of Mr. Theodore Tilton made before the Commit tee of rrivestigation, and which appeared in the Brookly Argus of July 21, 1874 I recognize the many reasons which make it of transcendent importance to myslf, the church, and the ctuse of public morality that 1 shall give a full answer to the charges against me. But hav ing requested tko Committee of Investigation to search this niattsr to the bottom, it is to them that 1 must look for my vindication But 1 cannot delay for an hour to defend the reputation of Mrs. Elizabeth R. Tilton, upon whose name in connection with mine her husband has attempted to pour shame Ona less deserting of such a disgrace I never knew Froui rlnlibeou sho has had uiy tince-o aduiirtion and affection 1 cherish for her a pure feeling, such as a gentleman might honorably offer to a Christian woman, and which she nvght re ceive and reciprocate without moral scruple. 1 reject with indignatiorf every insinuation which reflects upon I.e.- honor or uiy own. My regard for Mrs Tilton was perfectly well known to my family; when . riout difficulties sprang up iu her household, it was to my wife that she resorted for coun sel ; and both of us, acting from sympathy , and as it subsequently appeared, without full knowledge, gave unadvised counsel which tended to harm. I have no doubt that Mr. Tilton found that bis wife s confidence and reliance up on nty judgment had greatly increased, while bis influence had diminished in coa* sequence of a marked change in his r!:g --eus and social views, which was taking place during those rears. Her mind was greatly exercised lest her children should be harmed by views which she deemed vitally false and dangerous. 1 was suddenly and rudely aroused to the reality of impending danger by the disc losure o! domestic distress, of sickness perhaps unto death, of the likelihood of separation, and the scattering of a family, every member of which 1 had tenderly leved. The effect upon me of the discov ery of the state of Mr. Tilton s feelings and the condition of his family, surpassed in sorrow and excitement anything that I had ever experienced in my life Thatrny presence, influence and counsel had brought tea beloved family ->rrow and alienation, gave in my then state > f mir.d a poignancy to nty suffering which I hope no other man ever may feel. Even to be suspected of having offered, under tho privileges of a jieculiarv sarrct relation, an indecorum to a wife and m.-th er, could not but deeply wound any one who is sensitive to the honor of woman hood. There were peculiar reason* for alarm in this case en other grounds . inas much as I was then subject to certain ma lignant rumors, and a fragrant outbreak in this family would bring upon them an added injury derived from these shameless falsehoods. Believing at the time that my pre*cr.< e and counsels had tenJed. howev, r un- >n sciously. to produce a social catastrephr, representol a* imminent, 1 gave expres sion to my feefing* in an interview with a mutual friend, not in cold an.l cautious, self-defending word. but eagerly, tak.ng blame upon myself, and pouring out my heart to my friend in tho strongest lan guage, overburdened with the exaggera tions of impa**ioncd sorrow Had I been tho evil man Mr. Tilton now represents 1 should have been calmer and more pru dent. It VM my horro#of the evil impu ted that filled me with morbid intensity at the very shadow of it. Not only was my friend affected gener ously, but he assured me that such expres sions, if conveyed to Mr. Tilton, would sooth wounded feeling, allay anger, nnd heal the whole trouble. He took down sentences aad IragmenU of what I had been saying to use thein as a mediator. A full statement of the circuinslanees under which this memorandum was made I shall give the investigating committee. That theso apologies were more than am ple to meot the facts of the case is evident, in that they wero accepted, that our inter course resumed its friendless, that Xlr. Til tori subsequently ratified it in writing, and that he has continued for four year*, and until within two weeks, to live with his wife. I it conceivable, if the charge bad been whst is now alleged, that he would have condoned tho offence nut only with the mother of bit children, bill with him whom he believed to have wronged them? The absurdity a well as the lain ty of this story is apparent when it i con sidered that Mr. Tilton new alleges that be carried this secret of his wife's infidelity foi six months locked up l?< his own breast, and that then he divulged it to mo only that there might ha a reconciliation with me! Mr. Tilton hat sinco, in every form of language, and to a multitude ol wit nesses, orally, in written statements, and in printed documents, declared his faith in his wife's purity. After the reconciliation of Mr. Tilton with me, every consideration of propriety and honor demanded that the family trouble should he kept in that seclusion which domestic affairs have a right to claim us asanctury ; and to that seclusion it was determined that it should he con lined. Every word of my private mid confiden tial letter* which have boon published are ia harmony with the statements which I now make. My published correspondence on this subject comprise* but two ele ments: The expression of my grid, and that of my desire to ihield the boner of u pure and innocent woman, I do not propose to analyze and contest at the time the extraordinary paper of Mr. Tilton ; but there are two allegations which I cannot permit to pass without special no tice. They refer to the only two incidents which Mr. Tilton pretend* to hare wit nessed personally : the one, an alleged scene in my house while looking over en gravings ; and Hie other, a chamber scene in bisown bouse. His statements concern ing these are absolutely false. Nothing of the kind ever occurred, norany semblance of any such things. They are now brought to my notice for the first time. To any statement whfch connects we diet i honorably with Mrs, Elizabeth It. Tilton,' or which in anywise would impugn thu honored purity of thla beloved Christian woman, I give the moat explicit, compre | kenxive, and aolemn denial. 11l NKV Wahi. HxKi lit It lluoon rs, duly '."J, 1874 tiUEAT KhtlOD AT PITTS lil' IU 200 l metinics he would gash his victim with a knife, and leave him fainting from 1 Of; blood, to be found hours afterwards bv| some accidental pa-erliv. At other limes he would be prepared with panors o! needles, and after tying up iiis victim, would till Ji: arms and legs with ueedles of van u sir- •, fre quently driving them into the bone. I*hen again he would vary this system of torture by taking a heavy liath.r thong and slitting it, improvise a ca> o'-nine tails, with which he would ex coriate his captive. Torture seeuis to be bis sole object, and his victim -aid that he was in (in habit of laughing ami dancing with dilight while administering it. The gentleman to whom we have rfecrnd found him to be a boy of more than average intelligence, and quite exten sively read. He asked voting Fume roy what book* he delighted most in reading, and he responded promptly and with evident delight. "The His tory of King Philip- 's War." This book details the circumstance* of one of the mo.-t terrible Indian wars that occurred during the early settlement of New Tngland. I'pon reference toj the book itself, it is found that the Indians were in the habit of torturing their captives in much the same way that l'omeroy tortured the little boy* who fell into his power. \\ lien askid it he regarded himself as an Indian, he replied that he was a good deal better Indian than King Philip or any of his waniors. After being delected, he confessed to all his crimes, and wit* sentenced to Seven year* confinement in the House o! Refuge and Correction. He did not chafe against the restraints imposed upon him, but submitted to theiu cheerfully, acknowledging the justice of hi* punishment, and apparently trying to nttone for his revolting crimes. He was penitent and tracta bio, and the result was that iu less than eighteen months ho was pardon ed out of the Refuge. 11 is morbid nature had evidently undergone a change during his im prisonment, from torture to murder, although he had so skillfully con cealed his feelings that ho deceived his keepers and the board of examination. SomJ five month ago, and a short time after his release, five small i children misleriously disappeared, front the southern portion of the city of Hoston within two or three weeks. At length the mangled IHMIV of a boy named Johnny Millin was found in u j marsh. The peculiar mauuer of mu tilation at once fixed suspicion upon the lad I'omerov and he was nrr sted.j When charged with the crime, he did| not deny it, hut said "they ought to put him some place w In re he could not; do such things." ile is now awaiting trial for the murder of the child, Millin. On Saturday last the mulila-j ted remains of little Katv Mary Cur tail was found concealed in the cellar, of the store room lately occupied by his mother. The remains of his other victims have not yet been found. We regard this as one of the most extraordinary cases of ciiminality and depravity that is furuished in the world's annals. The murderer has no traits of violence or viciousness about him. On the contrary he is physical perfection, with a face beaming over with kindness. A pleasant smile is always lingering about the corners of his mouth, and the peculiarity of his right eye gives him rather n pleasant expression, A person would hardly think him capable of wantonly crush ing an insect, much less murdering his own kind by the wholesale. Of course, the defense in hia ca.-c will ho insanity. Ami yet it is next to impossible to detect anything ab normal in his conversation or notions while under restraint. He fully real izes tlio fact tlmt lie is guilty of very grave crimes, and yet protests tlmt he is not aware of any motive that would prompt him to commit them. Hut that lie is insane, there can be no doubt, and we think that the key to his insanity is his enthusiastic study of King Philip's bloody exploits among the Colonists. It is clear that he lins imbibed the idea thnt he is King Philip and that the helpless vic tims of his devilishness are Europeans and Colonists, who are trying to en croach upon his domain* Upon no otiier hypothesis can his mania for murder he accounted for. Taken al together the story of young Pomeroy is as interesting us it is terrible, and 1 Jif we mistake not when hit cases cornea 1 ! up for trial before the Ronton criminal court, it will excite utoro speculation and comment among jourista ami men of science, than any raao ever tried lac iforc in the country.— Pott. ♦ ('ltlMK IN KENTUCKY. l/>ui*ville, July 2.5.- Kastcrn Ken tucky mail* to-night tiring nccmtnU of acvcrnl leriible Iragcdica.
