A heavy storm passed over Knox
villo on the 1st instant. Tho county
bridge over tho. ' Tonuessoo river wan
blown down, incurring a loss of f 10,
000. The Charleston railroad bridge
was alo damaged. . , i , ,

with the 'Pennsylvania railroad in

a patent to register cars which will
save tho corporation a largo expense,
and make Mr. Brophya handsome for

Constituted Agencies. Tho Wil
liamspori 'Timet snys tho express com

arrangements with ex-Governor Big

stock of the Centennial Board of Fi

Kelly, of Philadelphia, who has scrvod
his party far more xealonsly than his
God and country, for many years, has
returned from a trip through the
southern Slates, and now wants to
change, his vote on all tho reconstruc
tion measures. ' '.''' .i.
Why Sot? Tho dofenco in tho
great scandal suit has closed, and nei
ther Sister Tilton or Brother Bowon
were pot on the stand. No other two
human beings know mora about the
jrfthan they ; yot,thcy aro not called.
But, then, ii Plymouth can stand it,
we suspect the outside the barbarian
portion of tho world can bear the
disappointment. , ' .' " ' '
To bk Kb Klvxid. Tho linns
berry caso is tobemnnufactured into a
hugo Ku Klux case for political pur
pose in the approaching contest for
Governor. ' Special orders havo been
issued by "tho government" to tho
United Statoa Court authorities to
"work this case up to its highest
point for oleotion purposos," as the de
toctire told Lnnshcrry when he arres
ted him. ...
Titt Times. A correspondent puts
it at us in this way : "What do you
think of MoC'lure's Philadelphia
Timet?" Well, it is tho best and
cheapest paper published in that city.
Only IS per annum, and contains just
as much news and solid matter as any
of the 13 and 110 dailios. . It is a de
cided improvement on Philadelphia
newspaper enterprise, and is bound to
succeed, Because before another year
rolls around it will have an immenso
circulation. ' ' .
Too Thin. "The Christiana! Work"
la the titlo of Talmago't paper. Tho
publisher has sent us a prospectus, hut
we cannot publish it The "Christian"
part of the journal is too much like
the Independent, the Golden Aye, and
other, nicely named organs of the
Bcechor-Plymouth persuasion. It is
"too thin," Mr. Jiiiiu. . i'ou assuino to
publish a religious journal, but it Is, In
reality, only a Badienl orgnn. The
"Christian statesmen" business on tho
Colfax plan, and liberal Christianity,
as practiced by Plymouth church,doos
not suit this "old logy 1 latitude.
Tn Cook-Id Railroad. Charles
B. Wright, of Philadelphia, hat been
elected president of the Northern Pa
cific Railroad, in place cf George W.
Cass, resigned. ' Mr. Wright for the
lost flvo years has been a director of
the company, and for most of the time
chairman of its finance committee.
Some efforts am making by the oQl
ccra of the company to better its fl
nancial condition, and, if possible,start
np work upon tho lino of tbo road.
Several project to this end havo been
suggested, but none as yet decided up
on. The point la this : shall 600 miles
of railroad be lost to the stockholders,
or build 1,600 more to savo 11, and
thereby nako it a through road which
will eventually yield a dividend nt

';llomco Groeley as a Hero." .
Axotiieii Public lioniiF.n I'bki.
Grant has just panloncd Jlajor llndge,
tho Assistant Paymaster who stole
four hundred thousand dollart of the
people's money for which ho was tried,
and miraculously convicted and sen
tenced to the penitentiary for ten
years. Tho, application was made
by tho wife in person, and so pathetic
wero her appeals that it V said, Grant
slied teats. Well, tho exerciso of mer
cy Is at all times commendable and we
will not condemn tho President for it
in this caso, but hod bo exercised or-
.-j. wnlHin I- wl .1 Imv
placed lloilgo in a position to steal tho
public money. Ho wns not fit for tho
place. lie is one of those unfortunate
creatures who would spend $400,000
annually for years and still hare noth
ing left for himself and family. It
was a high offonco on tho part of the
President lo appoint such a spendthrift
to that onticing position, now he si ill
commits a graver offence by pardoning
him and turning him loose. Such pun
ishment Is very expensivo financially
nnd morally, and is no terror to evil
doers. - ,
TniiE As Gospki, Tho St. Louis
Republican, in alluding to another re
ooinon, says, "when you find a
southerner who tnlks shout a now re
bellion, it is tolerably safe to assume
that ho did littlo or no fighting for the
old one. Tho most earnest rebels dur
ing tho war nro now tbo most consis
tently and thoroughly loyal." Yes,
nnd whenever you henr a northerner
dilating aliout rebels and another war,
sot him down as oo who never saw
tho Confederate Gray or tbo Foderal
Blue, either; only when a neighbor
returned homo on furlough to have
a wound healed. Tho .North and
the South are pestored with this class
of patriotic vormin, and will probably
never get entirely rid of them unless
the truo union element is allowed to
kill them off, as tbo laboring bees do
tho drones.
A Bap Cash. Hon. John M.llroom-
all, tho leader of Delaware county
Radicals, sued Goorgo W. Ormsby, an
other "moral idea" leader, for libel
spoken during the lost tall canvass.
Hroomall was tho Radical nominee for
Judgo, and was deleatcd in a county
which should have given him 1,000
majority. The trial closed on Wodnes
dny Iwt, snrl rMtlto4 in- the - no
quiltal of Ormsby. Quito a number
of Delaware and Chostor county Dad-
ioal politicians wero present as wit
nesses, the most prominent Mlusing
answors to Important questions, on the
plea of self crimination. Tho trial de
veloped an awful slnto of morals for a
Quaker community, I iko that. How
ever, some ot these rogues only wear
tho garb for tho puposo of cheating
tho unwary, flow strnngo that men
who "inherit their principals from
God," should lie so wickedly.
Round Sentiments. Tho leading
jonrnali of our party, north and south,
are beginning to discuss the Presiden

An anthracite coal field has boon
discovered in J obusnn county, Arkansas.
Tho coal has been tested in a trial trip
of a steam vessel at SL Louis, and the
report of persons who witnessed the
experiment says "tho coal produced

abundantly, produced very htllo asb,

two tons of tho best Pittsburg coal." .

I slated iu August last that the per
ccptikle improvement in business af
fairs would occur with tho bursting of
tbo butts in tho spring of 1875. The
present outlook confirms all I then said.
A few days ago one of our largest real
estate agents sold seven largo residen
ces for occupancy ns well as nn invest
ment ; the prico of the lowest was $42,
500, that of the highest $97,600, the
olbon scattering between these two
sums. Tho purchasers of those two
properties aro manufacturers, whoso
prospective business warrants such in
vestments. One of tho strongest indications of
tbo prosperous times in the immediate
future, is, in my opinion, found iu the
improvements that the American
Steamship Company havo just added
to their steamers. During tho month
of April, whilo their vessels were in
port at this place loading and unship
ping, tweiity-llvo first-class cabin berths
wero added to onch steamer of the line.
Tboso additions havo been mndo to
moettho demand upon them by a much
larger number of our merchants, who
deal in foreign goods, going to Kuropc
this summer, to personally purchase
their slock. .,- .. ;
Tho steadily increasing demand for
such goods from country patrons 00m

this increase of ocean travel, has forced

and I ninst confess my nrido as an
American, rejoices at this, for the
reason that Philadelphia alone, having
had the courage to build the only line
of Kuropcan steamers, sailing beneath
the proud flag of our country, it is
gmtifylng to know that American cit
iicna are patriotic enough to patronize
a line of steamers built of American

ono of lloecber's counsel. In order to
distinguish that particular kiss from
his daily practical experience in the

his direct evidence, hud poetically term
ed it a "kiss ot inspiration." Tho fol
lowing were tho questions put bv Ful

gavo you this "kiss of inspiration" as
you turm it? A. It was Saturday

ing that evening lying Ukiii the sofa?
A. No, sir; 1 know 1 was not,, - s
i i' our recollection is positive upon
that? A. It la very positive ,
0 You can distinguish butoen that
visit aud all tbo other visits? A.
That visit stamped itself very indelibly
nn my mind in regard to such features
as 1 recollect. ' , , .
i. Do you recollect thalwbeu Mrs.
Moulton was on tho stand alio was
asked tho question by your counsel
w bother she k issd you on that occasion?
A. 1 heard but a part of her testimony.
i- Did you bear that ? A. 1 don't
recollect whether I did or not, sir,
y. Was not Mrs. Moulton asked iu
your presence in regard 10 kissing yon?
A. I cannot now sny whether she
was asked in my presence, and 1 learned
it from hearing her, or whether I read
it in tho testimony ami learned it so.

that I must havo heard it. ,
Didn't you writo it on a slip ol
