some troubles said to exist at that time in and
about Powolton. Our correspondent is in

LOCAL CORRESPONDERCE.
Poisonous Liquors
MR. WM. LEWlS—Respected Sir :—I notice
since I made public a short statement of some
poisonous liquors, that some men are dissat
isfied and charge me with not doing the
" fair thing" by not stating whose liquors
they were, and for-the only. Now, sir, I
did not state whose liquors they were, and
best reason in the world, that I did not know,
nor do I to the prerent time. It is immaterial to
me whose liquorsl inspect, or by whom itis pro
duced for analysis, nor does it devolve on me
to knout ; my province is to examine the sub
stance placed in my hands for that purpose.
have been, and will be governed alone by
the chemical result of the investigation, with
out regard to the dictations of any individual,
be he whomsoever he may. If it is found
to he a pure article it shall he so stated ; if
on the other hand it should contain poisonous
substances, it shall likewise be stated ; and
furthermore, if I gave names. and published
all examined, it would consume too much
space and time. The proper time to make
defence, would be when I make an attack
upon a person or particular sample of liquor ;
then don't spare me a moment—let loose the
whole battery of poisonous and drugged imi
tations; I fear no harm. The specific gravity
will cause the dregs to settle to the bottom ,
and the pure stream of truth will buoy justice
far enough above the curly headed poisonous
current beneath. Far be it from me to injure
any honest manufacturer, or do him the least
harm in his business, but rather would pro
tect him from the clutches of a villainous,
fraudulent and murderous competition. But
if I find anything that is injurious to the con
sumer, I will do them justice by laying bare as
far as in my power, the deceptive, swindling,
yes, death-producing traffic. The individual
who is depraved enough to mix poison with
liquor is not fit to live in a civilized commu
nity. To be permitted to exist among bar
barians is too good, the penitentiary is too
mild a punishment, the gallows might do
while , ' permitted to remain on earth ; even the
region of eternal darkness and despair, if it
could be possible, is too good a place for such
wholesale wickedness, encased in human
form. I have but one more remark to make
at present, and that is to those of us who use
liquor as a beverage or for other purposes ;
if we value our position in society as useful
men And women ; if we value physical as well
as mental health and strength, if we value
life here and hereafter, let us look well to
what we drink. J. S. Gairrrrn-.
The Lynching of the lowa Murderer.
A few clays since we mentioned the murder
of a woman named Willis and her two chil
dren by one Kephart, at Otumwa, lowa.
correspondent of the ilawkeye, of that State,
chronicles the termination of the affair as fol
lows :
I have just witnessed the most exciting and
painful scene. 250 men from the vicinity of
13atavia, where the murdered victims were
found came into Fairfield one hour ago, or
ganized on horseback and in wagons, passed
around the public park orderly and quietly,
the poor orphan boy in the van. They rode to
the court-house and jail, surrounded it and
halted ; our citizens rapidly assembled—our
County Judge asked to be heard—next Wil
son, Slagle, Collins. from Batavia, Acheson,
Negus, Lamson, Myers and others. They
were all listened to—they asked . not to defend
Kephart, but appealed to all good citizens to
defend the law. All was of no avail, they
had come for Kephart—they had erected his
gallows and dug his grave on the banks of
Cedar—Kephart they would have, and they
held up the lonely orphan boy. Next they
took a scantling and battered down door after
door to Kephart's cell and took the feeble old
man, black with guilt, from our jail—he is
now on his may to his gallows and his grave.
The men who took him from our jail were
old and respected citizens of our county and
State. They were cool, decided, determined
—there are no better citizens in the State,
and right or wrong they took the responsi
bility.
TILE EXECUTION
At an early hour of July sth, the people
began to assemble upon the ground where,
according to reoort, Kephart would be hung.
The place chosen was on the left bank of Ce
dar Creek,upon the road leading north from
Batavia to Abingdon, about a hundred yards
or more from the bridge that spans the creek.
The writer arrived upon the ground about
10 A. M., and already a hundred or more
people were waiting, and the scaffold was in a
state of erection, while two men were busy
digging the grave. -
By noon two thousand people, at least, had
gathered to witness the execution, which was
a novelty, perhaps, to the majority ; and on
the right bank of the creek, fronting the scaf
fold, and the place where the bodies of the
murdered woman and children had been found,
the women, who numbered three or four hun
dred, and, as it seemed, were as merry as
though they had been invited to a bridal
scene ; but if one at a distance had been de
luded, upon drawing near to listen to the
chatting, ho - would Have learned then and
there, that tender women, kind-hearted, mild
and lovely, can be gay, even when an engine
of death stares them in the face ; yes, and
even when a man dangles in the air, whore
neck is broken by the fall from the trap-door
of the gallows, and who hangs suspended by
a rope until the last vestige of breath is choked
out of him, and his spirit goes to the world of
shades.
At 12 o'clock, a messenger arrived with
the intelligence that the mob had broken into
the jail at Fairfield, and taken the prisoner
from the power of the law, despite the elo
quent speeches that bad been spoken in be
half of legal justice, and were fast approach
ing.
.At 2 P. M., a distinguished citizen of
Agency stepped upon the scaffold and made
a short, nervous harangue to the multitude,
in which he approved the proceedings through
out ; and in which be remarked that he pro
fessed to be a God-fearing man and law-abi
ding citizen, but when devils came from hell
we would send them back.

Shooting of a Culprit in a Court Room by
a Woman
A Mrs. Help was visiting a lady friend, at
her residence in Carson Valley, California.—
Her husband and daughter, about seven
years old, were with her. They came over
the plains last year. The wife, in order to
help support the family, had just opened a
laundry. It appears that during the spring
they had allowed a sick and frosted man to
come to their house, and to whom they fre
quently gave meals. He was a thick-set,
bad-looking man, apparently a mixture of
Mexican, Indian and negro blood; has al
ways been suspected of having been one of
Tom Bell's gang of murderers. He lately
returned there, and has constantly insulted
Mrs. H. by making improper advances, which
resulted in his being often sent away. They
live in a small boarded house, at the lower
end of Carson street. Night before last the
fellow fired several balls through it, very
nearly killing the husband and daughter.—
The wife escaped with her child to a neigh
boring tavern.
Yesterday afternoon there was a deal of
excitement in relation to it, and about the
middle of the day he came in advance of a
mob, and took his seat on some lumber, di
rectly across the street from the door, and it
was supposed that they were then going to
lynch him. It was subsequently ascertained
that Judge Cradlebaugh had issued a war
rant for his arrest, and that he had avowed
he would kill the woman and her family, and
which, judging from his desperate character,
he would have done.
On the 2d inst., almost 3 P. M., those in
the room occupied by Wells, Fargo & Co.,
were startled by the near report of a pistol.
On going to the door they found that the dis
turbance originated in the nest room. It was
ascertained that the fellow, having been ar
rested, had been undergoing in that room a
preliminary investigation before Judge Cm
dlebaugh, who decided to hold him in $5OO
bail for trial, which he sent
. for; the Judge
temporarily clearing the room. Mrs. H. was
an.important witness against him, and was
calm and clear in her evidence. So soon as
she ascertained that he was to be set free on
procurint , bail, she made her husband get up
and go out, and she followed immediately.—
She had to pass directly behind the fellow,
who was titting down, leaning forward, with
his head resting upon his hands.
As she came behind him, she suddenly drew
a revolver, which it seems she had kept cock
ed, from under her shawl. coolly placed it
within a few inches of his back, between his
shoulders, and fired before the person nearest
could arrest her arm. He started up, partly
dropping the blanket from his shoulders,
walked two or three steps, seized a man by
his shoulders to support himself, gave a gasp
or two, and expired. Mrs. H. calmly walked
off through the crowd, with her husband, to
her own home. 'Subsequent examination
showed that the ball had passed through the
heart, and came out just below the left nip
ple.
Popular feeling is generally on the side of
the woman, many justifying her as having
done an act beneficial to the entire communi
ty, as well as essential to her own safety.
TERRIBLE ACCIDENT 41cD
Dewall, of Somerset county, was killed recent
ly under very painful circumstances. He
was plowing corn in one of his fields, and
when called to dinner unhitched his horse
from the plow, threw the traces over his back
and mounted it to ride to the house.. Just
as he passed a brook that ran across the way,
one of the traces slipped down, the chain end
of it wound closely around his ankle, and its
hook caught in a link. His horse grew un
manageable ; first it threw him from his back
and then started off at a full speed, drawing
him along on the ground. After it ran to the
barn and around it several times, Mrs. Dewall
saw the dreadful condition of her husband
and hastening to his relief, but this only
frightened the animal the more, and turning
in another direction it jumped over a wood
pile, causing a dreadful annihilation of Mr.
Dewall's person. In the flight of the horse
he had been literally torn and crushed to
pieces. His head was a mangled mass.—
Along the way where he had been dragged,
flesh and blood were seen. When taken up
he was lifeless.
ELOPEMENT.—We find the following item
in the Greensburg Argus of July 12th. Mr.
Dutcher, was, some months ago, a resident of
this place :
"J. W. Dutcher, a 'catch-maker, by trade,
took up his abode in this place some months
since ; and from all appearances, was doing
a pretty fair business. About ten days ago
he left for Altoona, stating his reasons for so
doing, that he was going thither to repair
watches for the railroad company, since which
he had not been heard of until Saturday last
when his wife received a letter from some of
her relatives near Altoona, informing her of
his elopement with a young lady of that place.
His wife, it appears, was not ignorant of his
designs for leaving Greensburg, she having
reasons to suspect his infidelity. On receipt
of the letter, she took the evening train for
Altoona, since which time we have been un
able to learn anything of either party."
A BRAVE ACT.-A. few days ago, while a
long and heavily loaded train of cars on the
Reading- Railroad was approaching Potts
town, and rounding a curve, a child about
four years old was discovered on the track.
The momentum of the train altogether pre
cluded the idea of stopping in time to save
the child. As quick as thought, the fireman
crawled over the engine, got on the cow
catcher, and with his foot pushed the child
of the track! without injuring it, except a
slight scratch on the face. Had this not been
done every car of the heavy train must have
passed over the child. This hero,who exhib
ited such coolness and self-possession in the
moment of danger, was PETER TOMINY, and
such an act deserves to be put down and re
membered by all.
MXISNESOTA WnEAT CROP.—An intelligent
gentleman► from one of the eastern cities,
who has been in 'Minnesota, several months,
engaged extensively in the purchase of grain,
says that the supposed high estimate made
by Gov. Ramsey, in his message, when he
fixed the surplus product of last year's crop
at one and a half millions of bushels, was
short of the whole truth. He thinks the
number of bushels which has and will find
its way into market, will exceed the aggre
gate of two millions. - Pretty good for the
first year of our t.xporting grain. The same
gentleman after a careful inquiry, based on
personal observation, is of the opinion that
the surplus wheat crop this year over and
above wants, will probably reach the enor
mous aggregate of six millions of bushels
SEW' The Southern Confederacy, of Atlanta,
Georgia hoists the flag of Douglas, The Con
federacy says ;
"We believe the ticket of Douglas and
Johnson is the true representative of the Na
tional Democratic party, and that all truo and
loyal Democrats will support it. This ticket
was nominated by a National Democratic
Convention in accordance with the usages of
National Democratic Conventions, and is the
only true National ticket now before the
American people. It has no tinge of section
alism, or that bias incident to personal am
bition, It represents those principles of the
party upon which the National Democracy
alone have been triumphant for the last twelve
years. It is opposed alone at the North and
the South by sectional combinations which
ignore principle entirely, and are only seek
ing political denomination and the gratiAca
tion of personal hatred and selfish ambition!"
