A REMARKABLE SUICIDE.—The Danville
American gives the following account of an
extraordinary suicide in that neighborhood
"We are informed that a man by the name
of Plecher, residing four miles from this
place, on the Catawissa road, committed sui
cide by hanging himself on Saturday evening
last. He was addicted to the use of strych
nine whiskey,' and had returned home with
a fresh supply, remarking to his wife that
there would be two deaths there before night.
His wife became alarmed and hid herself.—
After preparing a place for two executions in
the barn, he searched for his wife, but being
unable to find her, took his two little chil
dren, (the oldest being about 5 years of age)
to the barn to see him die. To one he gave
his hat, and to the other his handkerchief,
when he deliberately swung off. The chil
dren raised the alarm, but he was dead be
fore assistance came. Another victim to the
insatiate demon."
Der Much excitement has been aroused in
Jacksonville, Illinois, by a most brutal mur
der perpetrated a few miles from that place.
A travelling beggar, named Michel Redman,
knocked his wife down with a clapboard,
striking her with its sharp edge until he cut
severe gashes in her head. He then stamped
on her until she was dead. He had previous
ly beaten his little child of four years of age
until he thought him dead, but the child will
probably recover. The only reason that can
be assigned for Redman's barbarity was that
he was tired of supporting his family. He
had not been drinking, and exhibited no signs
of insanity. The Jacksonville Journal says
that it was at first proposed to lynch the mur
derer, but better counsels prevailed, and he
was committed to jail.
BITTER EGGS.-A singular 'complaint has
been made in different parts of this country
of bitter eggs. They appear fresh and nice,
save in the taste, which is like quinine.—
11 - aye the hens been fed on tansy ? Or can
any scientific man account for this singular
phenomena of nature.—Three Rivers Chron
icle, Michigan.
Seventeen years ago, when the locusts were
plenty, the same bitter taste was in the eggs,
and continued until the disappearance of the
insects. Perhaps the Michigan hens have
had an early taste of the locusts which are
to prevail this year.—Albany Statesman.
COEIZESPONDENCE OF 'TEE GLOBE.
RA INSBURG, Aug. IG, 1860.
Mn. LEWIS :—Being a constant reader of
your invaluable paper, and witnessing with
much pleasure how steadily, and with what
ability and enthusiasm you have supported
(Douglas) the regular nominee for the Presi
dential chair, I have concluded to let you
know that Bedford county is all right. There
are a few persons that support " Old Abe,
the rail mauler," as they term him, but the
number is very few. They boast that he did
maul rails, this he may have done, and in
deed, if I would be permitted to judge from
what I can gather from his history, he is bet
ter calculated for that businesB than for the
station to which ho is aspiring. The De
mocracy are united on the " Little Giant,"
and will most certainly cast every vote in his
favor, and, indeed, quite a number of the
Opposition are earnestly using all their influ
ence ithlis behalf. There is no doubt but
that Douglas will have at least a majority
over all others in this county.
The school at this place is progressing fine
ly tinder the superintendency of E. J. Os
borne. There are some sixty-five students in
attendance at present, and more entering ev
ery day, so that before the middle of the
present quarter, there will be not less than
eighty-five. In connection with the • regular
classical studies pursued in a Seminary like
this, there has been established a commer
cial department by Prof. W. P. Totten, in
which book-keeping, commercial calculations,
card writing, plain and ornamental penman
ship, and indeed every thing that pertains to
a good business education is taught to per
fection. Mr. Totten is not only a gentleman
in every sense of the word, but a man who
thoroughly understands the science be pre
tends to teach, having graduated at Iron City
College. The full course in this department
will not cost more than 30 dollars, board in
cluded.
If you think this worthy a place in your
valuable paper you may insert it, and oblige,

AN EXIIIBITION.—We had the pleasure of
attending an exhibition on Friday evening,
the 3d inst., at Colerain, Huntingdon county,
given by the school of that place, under the
charge of A. It Miller. Mr. Stewart kindly
granted the privilege of the new forge, a very
large building, which has been erected there
during the summer, and the citizens spared
no pains in rendering it a most agreeable and
attractive place by the tasty style in which
theye,had it wreathed and decorated.
It was the first exhibition of the kind that
was ever given by the Colerain school, and the
people, both old and young, were highly in
terested in the event.
The room was filled with spectators to its
utmost capacity, and good order
On account of the lengthy programme, the
exercises commenced at the early hour of 71.
The Huntingdon Furnace String Band was
present, and enlivened the audience with ex
cellent music, which added greatly to the in
terest of the occasion.
After the various dialogues and recitations
were gone through with, Mr. Miller concluded
with a very interesting farewell address to
the scholars and patrons of the school, where
in he pointed out, in touching language, the
way of wisdom to the scholars, and to the
patrons the path of duty.
Mr. Miller has been the teacher at Colerain
over ten months, and during his stay there
has not only rendered perfect satisfaction to
the patrons of the school, but has won the
friendship and esteem of all that were in the
circle of his acquaintance. lie has now left
and many.good wishes have gone with him.
A SPECTATOR.
31.Ecu.INicsiaLLn, Pa., Aug„l2, 1860.
SCOTTSVILLE, August 18, 1860
MR. LEWIS :—Being through with my daily
avocation for this week, instead of taking my
usual evening walk, I will seat myself and
give you the news in brief, of this corner of
the county.
The dissatisfaction in the opposition ranks,
on their county ticket, is not found alone in the
"ancient borough." But go where you will
throughout this end of the county, and you
will hear some of their best men declaring
they cannot help elect some of the men who
compose the ticket.
The ticket formed by the late Democratic
County Convention, in Huntingdon, appears
to please all parties. Messrs. Africa, Long
and Caldwell are well known throughout this
end of the county. No one can say aught
against either of them, and they will receive
the hearty support of the people, irrespective
of party.
I will just state before I close my letter, that
Linconism has been on the decline during
the last week in this township. But I sup
pose it will soon be revived, as the great
Chanzpion of Republicanism, of this township ,
has been spending a week in the " ancient
borough." And during his stay' there has
heard the Great Covode speak, and has learned
others startling facts besides, which he will
give to our good citizens here who "don't
read," and that will fetch 'em all right.

Clippings from Our Exchanges
FATAL GUNNING ACCIDENT.—Britton Strick
land, a lad about 11 years of age, son of
Miles Strickland, near Stottsville, Sadsbury
township, Chester county, met with a fatal
accident on Friday last. He, in company
with two of his brothers, was out gunning.—
Ile carried a double barreled gun, and had
killed a lark•with one barrel. After various
unsuccessful attempts to empty the remain
ing barrel, he commenced loading the other,
and while thus engaged, the loaded barrel
was discharged, the contents striking him
about the right temple and ear, inflicting a
fatal wound. Britton walked about three
steps after receiving the wound and fell on
his knees. Morris, one of the brothers, ran
to him and inquired if he was hurt. He re
plied, "Yes—bad." These were the only
words he uttered after the accident. He was
then taken under a tree. The boys were
about half a mile from home at the time.—
Their father was sent for and Britton was at
once taken home, and medical assistance
sent for, but no relief could be afforded.—
Thirty-two shots were found imbedded in the
face and head—only two of them causing
wounds necessarily fatal. He lingered in
agony about three hours, when death relieved
him of his sufferings.
HORRIBLE MURDER—A Son, and Sister
Killed.—George Aldrich, a convict, who had
just served out a term of five years in the
Virginia, penitentiary for killing a man in
Lo n. Ilft Richmond a few days since, and
on arriving at Logan county, found that his
family bad moved across 'the river to War
field, Lawrence county, Va. The Kanawha
Republican says :
He followed them. He murdered his
sister in the most shocking manner, literally
cutting her to pieces, taking out her heart
and hacking it to pieces, and then throwing
her body into Sandy river. The body of his
son, a lad of about thirteen years old, was
found in a by-plaCe, nearly eaten up by the
hogs—but was readily identified by a re
markable scar on one foot, which had been
preserved by the shoe and stocking. The
son was by a wife who had obtained a divorce.
After the perpetration of these horrid deeds,
the fiend, with his gun in hand, fled to the
woods, saying that he intended to kill his
father and mother and two other persons—
and then the people might take - him, burn
him at. the stake, or do what they pleased
with him. The excited people are after him.
SINGULAR ATTEMPT TO COMMIT SUICIDE.-
We learn from the Rochester Democrat that
a man employed as a track hand on the Cen
tral Railroad undertook to commit suicide on
Tuesday afternoon, of last week, by throw
ing himself under the wheels of the train
westward from Albany, when it was at Cold
water. He had been at work in the sun all
day, and received a coup de soleil, which had
the effect to derange his intellect. As the
train was passing the station, he rushed to
the locomotive and laid his head on the track
in front of it. The cow-catcher thrust him
to one side, but as the train was moving very
slowly, he had time to repeat the
,attempt
three times, with precisely the same result.
He would have tried again but some of the
bystanders dragged him away by main force:
His injuries are confined to some severe cuts
and bruises on the side of the head.
BUYING A lIUSB-kND.-A neat and charm
ing maiden, in Indiana, the fortunate pos
sessor of a considerable property, became en
-gaged-for mt.rringe to a green, unattractive,
boy, of 18 years. The day for the wedding
was fixed, and the course of rustic love was
running smoothly enough. One day, the
groom expectant appeared before his mis
tress with 'wrinkled brow, quivering chin,
eyes filled with tears : "My father - says I
shan't marry unless I first pay him for my
time." This was all he said. The women
at once sent him to the sharp parent, with
instructions to learn the lowest rate of ex
change at which the time could be transmit
ted into money. " I will sell you," said the
father, "for $2OO, and not a cent less."—
" And I will buy you." returned the damsel,
when the offer was communicated to her.—
She paid the money, married the property,
and has since so assidously cultivated it, that
a great improvement, personally, morally,
and intellectually has taken place.
A 'Affix tIiONVN TO PIECES.-A terrible ac
cident recently happened to a man named
Charles Schults, while blasting in a quarry
near Greshville, Berks county. lle made a
blast which did not do more than make a
mere crevice in the rock, and then poured
into the hole about quarter of a keg of pow
der, and applied a slow match which failed
to ignit. He then attempted to re-light the
match with steel and flint, which he carried
about him. It is supposed that when he had
his watch lighted it fell from his hands and
ignited the powder. The unfortunate man
was standing immediately over the blast, and
the explosion that followed threw him off a
distance of fifteen yards. When picked up he
was found to be in a dying condition, with
both eyes blown out, a leg and arm nearly
severed from the body, his entrails out, and
his whole body disfigured in a shocking man
ner. He lived about an hour.
THE FATE OF A GOLVITONTER.—What suf
fering accompanies gold-searching ! The
Omaha Nebraskian relates the death of an
unsuccessful Pike's Peaker. He was in a
wagon, at, , ,4 sick with the mountain fever.—
His son willed succor and shelter for his sick
father at five different houses, and in every
instance was refused. The poor lad, finding
the people among whom he chanced to have
been, deaf tb'the cause of humanity, was com
pelled to witness the dying agonies of a be
loved father,'• to see the last sad struggle, and.
with but a single friend near him, hundreds
of miles froth home, on an inhospitable plain,
beneath the scorching rays of a midsummer's
sun, to close the eyes and compose the limbs
of that dead father—in a wagon ! On reach
ing Omaha City a number of citizens took
charge of the corpse and buried it.
EXTRAORDINARY EFFECT OF TIIE TORRID
WEATHER.—The Buffalo (N. Y.) Republic
indulges itself in the followinc , ;,
" A servant girl took a very fat little baby
out for a ride in a little wagon, and although
on the shady side of the street, on turning
round to look at her charge, found that the
little darling had disappeared. Where could
it have gone ? Its clothing was still in the
wagon, but where was the child ? Retracing
her steps a little way; she found that some
fatty matter had leaked from the little wagon,
and she Tollovired up the trail for a block and
a half, and this fatty oily trail was all that re
mained of the poor child, which had melted
and run through. the servant maid, devo
ted to her mistress, took the child's clothing
and with it, religiously soaked up all the ole
aginous matter which had run from the wag
on, and replacing it in the vehicle, went tear
fully home to her mistress, and, as she sob-
tingly told the story of the loss of the little
innocent, presented the child's clothes, and
deliberately wrung out the remains. This
touching proof of her fidelity to her mistress,
and the heat of the weather, will bring a tear
to many an eye.
