"BIXLKT."
From the Altoona Mirror we learn that
Robert Hewitt, a wealth,- bachelor, com
mitted suicide by shooting himself, on the
17th inst. He lived with a man named Jo
seph t-oguin, who workrd hi* larm which
is situated in the mountain near the Wop
senonock Hole), seven uiti, - from Altoo
na. On the morning of the 17th, he took
his gun and said to hi* family that be
would lake u dav s hut-.:, and in the even
ing he was found ab> ui a mile and a Quar
ter from the b.-use dead having -hot him
self through the heart, lie etta letter
stating that, being weary of life, ar.d feel
ing that he had lived long enough and
done enough "fur good and for evil,' he
had deliberately taken his own lite. He
left a will, bequeathing ail hi* property to
his farmer.
AN UNPROFITABLE PEACH SEA
SUN.
liiddlrlown. Del*wre, Sspt. 21.—The
peach season will be virtually over in about
a week. There van be no doubt but that
the growers' fear- for the profit, have been
tullv realized. The markets from the very
first shipments • f Hale? to a few days since,
when the firmer varieties beiran to make
their appearance except at irregular inter
vals, have been glutted, ar.d the returns
have been absolutely a 10.-s in many cases.
Owing to the glutted markets about one
third of the crop, it is said, has been al
lowed to rot on the trees, and many of the
farmer* have tjot picked any of their
peaches for market -ince the shipment of
Hales. As a general thing the oua.ity ot
fruit shipped this year to New 1 ork and
the west has been finer than ever sent
ftom the Peninsula market*, and but for
the superabundance of the supply there is
little doubt but that the growers w -u!d
have been amply comper-aud. The
growers who have shipped constantly to
New York -which has taken about I.s',
000 basket*—are out cf | cket, and in
nianv cases have nt received t-m-ugh to
pav the commission men. Philadelphia
was about the-poorest of all the markets
Growers who have shipped to th<- smaller
western cities hare done better than any
other class of shippers, having paid ex
penses ami realized a fair profit. The
Boston markets have been well supplied,
and. coupled with the point* of shipment
in New England, have been, next to the
western point*, the molt remunerative to
the growers The total number of baskets
shipped to" these points was about 3ot),(KAi
The entire cost of ticking, shipping and
marketing the euormou- crop of peaches
grown on the Peninsula has n-. been very
far short o! $2 000,000 and when the sea
son closes this wn! be increased probably
to nearly $2,200,000. There now remains
about six days of largo shipments, the
Smock, late Crawford, and various can
ning varieties constituting the bulk of the
remaining crop. This week the Heath, a
very excellent cunning truit will make its
appearance, and when they have been all
market-d the ea-on may be said to be
over. The total shipments will am unt to
about 6,00u,0U) baskets. Fully I.&ut.OUU
baskets have b er: used on the peninsula,
some of the fruit being canned, a grpat
quantity dried, and thousands of basket
made into peach brandy by the distilerics,
which have sprung up all over the lower
part of the stale From the present time
until the conclusion of the sens .n the mar
kets continue to improve, and the grower
yet hope to make at leas. expenses, if not
"a small surplus over. But. altogether, the
effect of the present crop has been disas
trous to the peach intere-t of the peninsu
la. and will result in the grubbing out of
the orchards.

HOW A SNAKE CIIA I'M ED A BOY
From tlif Heading Eagle
For the last two weeks a on of A Hen
Rogers, ago.i eleven yean, a wood cutter
on the Blue Mountain*, about three mile*
froni Hamburg. has been in the habit of
leaving hi* father's every morning
about 'J o'clock, and not returning till
noon. The j>arents of the boy have ques
tioned him several time* a* to where he
went, and the boy would reply, to p.sy
with a neighboring boy named Springer
On Friday last the father watched his son,
and followed at a short distance, and when
about a half mile from the house, the boy
entered a piece of thii k sprout land, in
from the road some two hundred yards,
where he seated himself upon a large rock,
and in loaa than ten minute* the father was
horrilied on seeing a inou-ter black snake
crawl upon the rock and put its head on
the boy a lap. The father states that the
snake was the largest he ever saw on the
hills, lie states that it w s easily fifteen
; feet long and a thick as his arm, which is
well developed. The boy had taken bread
with liiin and wa- feeding the snake, which
at intervals would stica a lurge tongue out
as if hissing f<r more to eat. Then it
would coil itself around the'ncck qnd body
of the boy, and play with its mouth and
neck with the boy's hands. The father
had often heard ut snakes charming chil
dren, and that if they were disturbed
while they were in the act, they would
kill the child. As the father turned to
leave his boy with his deadly companion,
he turned back, and the snake hearing a
noi>e, at once unpolled i self and raised lis
body at least foqr feet from the rock and
looked in all direction.-, ami tiien it return
ed to the boy's lap. ar.d the father returned
lionia and Hwaited the boy's return, which
was, us usual, at noon. When told that
he had boeu playing with the snake, the
boy said the first morning lie met the snake
he liked to play with it: then lie took it
food, and he was so mutft pleased with hi*
companion that something told him that
lie must meet the spake every morning.
One morning he said he was late, and whtn
he reached the place tho snulre wa- stand
ing up, and it came out to meet liiin, then
followed liini to the rock- There is sonie
. thing very strurigc about a snake charm
ing not only children. but I have read of
adults coining under their charms. There
is certainly some truth in the facinating
powers of snakes.
On Saturday morning the f'utber arid two
of his neighbors went to the place with
guns, and at the usual time the snake made
its appearance, when all fired atone lime,
killing the charmer.

A WON I>ERPUL RAVINK IN NK W
MEXICO.
A correspondent, traveling with the (
Wheeler expedition, give* the following *
account of a wonderful ravine encountered {
by the expedition:
About twenty mile* from Lag-son* we *
crossed some plains near Sheep spring, and t
suddenly came upon a deep volcanic ravine
with walls of bluish lava, sheer from the t
top to the bottom, and at least 700 feet
high. In running over the continent by
railroad, and suffering from the monoton* t
ous character of the plains and prairias,
one is inclined to think that, compared *
with the latter, the proportion of pictur- (
e-que scenery in America is insignificant!
But before you have traveled many hun- 1
drcd mill - in New Mexico or Colorado •:
you are bound to acknowledge that any a
<>ne of their abounding marvel* would be
enough to make a more accessible country '
famous. What has the East, or England, j
or France, or Germany to equal this ravine,
for instance — tho Canado Alamos, as it is *
called ? Compared with it the Pictured
Rocks, the Virginia Natural Bridge, Wat- I
kin's Glen, or the most curious feature* of
the British coast are worth as little note as 11
a boy's box of magic compared with the )
best tricks of a skilled prestidigitateur ;'
and yet here, in the midst of a thousand '
other marvels, it has n-Hbing more than n j
name and scarcely excites a nii-nient's won
der. The surrounding country is almost 1
flat and is bounded by abrupt mesas. We
mar. h along with apparently nothing but j
tho plains ahead of us, and suddenly, w itb
out warning, as we approach a crest of tin- 'I
wavy land we seo tho edge of the gulf •
Less than a d<<zen yards away this enor
mous Us ure lays bare the earth in a width \
of 1400 and a depth of "OO leet. The walls,'
as has been said, are plumb and smooth,
the color of coal. The flat bottom it filled
with yellow sand and pebbles, meander
ed by a babbling creek. Thickets of trees
and shrubs crop out of this Uarreness appa
rently independent of nourishment, and
here a great slice of lava leans over from i
th- farther wall as though it had been cut
oy u knife, only awaiting the action of a!
f--w thousand rainfalls before it tumbles
into the canyon. In the rhasrn between
it and the mainland a forest is growing,
and as we throw stone down it that rum
ble to the bottom, a flock of birds shriek
remonstrance at our unprovoked assault.

he was an independent character, as lu

A TRAGEDY.
At U,'Seville, l'a , la*t week, Mis Har
riet Uussel, a daughter of William Russet,
a farmer, married llorton Hurst, a carpen
ter, and a young man of excellent charac
ter. There had been a family feud of
long standing between Riusel and the
Burst family, and tho former had forbid
den his daughter receiving attention from
young Hurst. After the nuptial* had
.been celebrated the couple \ent to the
j village tavern to dine Whilst at dinner
the door of the dining room was burst in,
an I Russell, the father of the bride, sprang
into the apartment, llis daughter arose|
hastily and tan toward him with out
siroU-hed arms, but be throw bet aside,
and sprang upon her husband. Accusing .
Hurst of having induced his daughter to
leave her home, he grasped him by tbuj
throat, but the young man threw Utm oti:
and commenced backing toward the door,
l-uuol seized a kntlo from Iho table, and
getting between Hunt and the door, at-1
templed to stab the young man. llursli
received the thrust in his arm, and seeing
that lite old man was bent on murder
Irew a revolver and warned him to stand'
hack. Russell did not heed the warning,
and continued to make deadly plunges with
tie knife Hurst received many of these
in his arm and shoulder. Al la-t llursl
pushed hi* assailant back from him and
levelled the pistol al hint. Ills vv tie al this
instant spiatig between the men just as
her husband's pistol was disc harged. rhe
ball entered her braiu as she fell to the
floor and expired without saying a word.
The report of the pistol brought a number
of persons into the room, llursl had fal
len on hi* knees beside bis wito * body,
and after several limes frantically appeal
ing to her by name to look up and speak
to him, ho r< >o to his feet, and before a
hand could bo extended to prevent him,
shot himself through the head, and lie fell
dead hy the side of his wife. Russell
seemed stricken dumb bv tbe fesrful
scene, and was led from tho room like
child. He wns arrested and held in $-.*
MX) to await tho action of tho grand jury.
A verdict that Mrs. Harriet K. llurst met
her death by the accidental discharge of a
pistol, and that Horton Hurst came to his
death by his own hands while temporarily
insane, was rendered.
We printed last week an account of the
hanging of a man, Scholl, in ltellefonuine,
Ohio, on suspicion of having murdered a
young wouian named Laughlin. His wife
had accused him of the murder, recount
ing a story which, on its face, was improb
able in tha extreme , while Schell himself,
with the halter around his neck,
his innocence, and declared that his wife
was in reality tho murderer, having been
actuated to the crime by jealousy. The
Columbus News says that a microscopic
examination of some hair found clutched
in Miss Laugh tin's hand shows that it was
neither hers nor Schell'a, but that it cor
responds with Mrs. .Schell s. If this is
true, there can be little doubt that the un-
fortunate man's story was true, and that
the murderous mob of "determined, hon
est ciliaen*" were guilty of hanging an in
nocent man without judge or jury, or even
a pretence of investigating the question of
bis guilt.
Gov. Curtin left Philadelphia for Ohio
on Saturdy night and will speak for Al
len every day until the close of the cam
paign.
