leads of clover seed, barley and other
graia, which make our little village quite
a market for grain*. While tho sledding
lasted the place was lively with teams
bringing in graia and taking away coal,
but since the sledding has got so poor the

AN INCALCI LAULK LOSS.
i; The .Most Valuable Portion of Frank
- 1 Jin County (Ohio) Recorda
• j PcMroynl.
• Columbus, Ohio. February L-
When the tire proof mult adjoinin
tho County Hoarder's otlioe wn
opeueil this morning, the content
irrre found in fiainca. The alarm wa
' sounded nnd the department put ou
the tire, so that the loss was confine*
to records already destroyed when i
j began its work. Only those record
, in the southwest corner were destroy
. ctl, hut they were those containing tin
. deeds and transfers in this count'
1 from the foundation of the Nortl
. Territory down to about 1830. Then
i is now no unbroken official record o
the chain of titles to over $, >O,OOO, (KM
worth of real estate in this county
In addition to this the old origins
plats of Culumbus, with its in-lotaatn
outslols, and many additions made t<
it. are destroyed, and the continuity
of the otficial records of title to al
the valuable city property here, a
well as in Worihiugtou and othei
villages in the county, is broken s<
that the loss can never be fully retno
died. The disastrous eflect could nol
f>6 much more complete had the em
lire records been destroyed.
The loss is incalculable, as there ii
no telling how much litigation auti
uncertainty the destruction of ihes
records will entail for very many
years to come. There is but one com
plete set of abstracts of title of all tin
$50,000,000 and more of property in
the world, and that is in the t>oßsessioD
of Brown Brothers, of this city. Ai
the original records are destroyed, it
may be that legislation will be resort
ed io so as to make these abstracts
available in evidence instead of the
original records. It is stated furthei
that the firm has o the red to replace
the records destroyed for ♦>0,000, from
their abstracts, hut there is already a
strong opposition to such a propoal
tion, nor is it known to a certainty
that such a proposition has hesn
made.
There is no doubt that tho lire was
of incendiary origin. The firemen
found twenty or more of the large
volumes of records with the backs
sticking out of the shelves so as to
give the lire chance al the jiagee. A
number of the hooks were complete
ly saturated with coal oil, so as to
make their destruction sure, and in
stead ol beiug placed oil the shelves
with their hacks exposed, as is usual
ly the case, they were in such position
as to give the tire the best possible
chance.

Cincinnati, 0., February !•—(treat ex
citement exist* in Frenchburg, KT., over
the c nviction of William Barnes f-r the
murSer of Thomas Stephen* in March
'.as'.. Barnes, who is a reckless despera
do, had a difficulty with Stephens in which
he was wersted. A few day* after he went
to Steph as' farm, where the latter was at
work, and without warning shot him
dead. He was arrested and piaced in jail
al Mount Sterling. His adherents on two
occasions set fire to the town, hoping to
secure hit release. Barnes was finally re
moved te Lexington tor safe-keeping and
afterwards brought to Frenchharg for tri
al. The jury yeeterday tound.him guilty
and fixed his punishment at confinement
ID the Penitentiary for ninety-am* years.
Barnes swears he will never go there, and
threats of rescue are freely made by his
friends, whe declare they will kill all who
were engaged in the prosecution. The
Sheriff has fifteen men guarding tho jail

MADISON WILLS INDICTED.
Accused of Selling the Patronage of
his Office —Other Indictments to
Follow.
New Orleans, Feb. 2—lt ie said upon
trustworthy autherity that J. Madison
Wells was, on Wednesday last, indicted
by the I'nited Stat** Grand Jury here
upon several distinct charges of corrup
tion in office. It has been an opea secret
months that Weils was in the habit of sell
ing the petronagc of his effioe. The names
of E. A. Yorke, I'. J Kennedy aad others
have been mixed up with allegatioas of
this character. Employees who have been
compelled to pay for positions or promo
tion, or to submit to monthly deductions
fVorn their salaries f r the benefit of Wells
have at time* betrayed a disposition to
give the thing away. The pre*ent Grand
Jury happened to have been better con
stituted than any of.it* immediate prede
cessor!. Certain Republicans here, desir
ous of purifying the Republican party and
the publie service, undertook the task of
bringiag these corruptions baforothe jury:
It ie not necessary to say that every ob
stacle has boca placed In the way of honest
investigation. It is said that a refusal to
proceed with other business until investi
gation of these charge* was bad finally
broke down the resistance of the efficeri
f the court. Judge Billings should b
excepted from criticism in this connec
tion, as he hat deserved none. Efforti
were tnado by Collector Smith to buy ef!
the jury with Custom House patronage
Only two jurors, however, could he indue
ed to accept appointments. It will bs
readily understood tbal details of tbs
Graud Jury proceedings cannot now l><
had. It ie enough for the present to knoa
that the jury bns dene its duty, and tha
Welle is likely to pay the penalty of hii
crimes.
The Grand Jury alto had UDder investi
gation the warehouse and drayage fraud;
and the matter of a fraudulent bond filet
to cover the new general order warehousi
-pened a few weeks ago by one Dumas
These rherg'-s seriously affect tho Collec
tor and Special Deputy T. C. Anderson
The evidence is said to be overwhelming
and the indictment of these persons am
other officials involved is expected.

A young woman is said by th
Loudon \Y orld to have argued, ii

of Brigham Young's death, that th

bad, and fashions so expensive, that i
is absurd for one nmu to have four o
