jryy Tlie I icmocrat seems to he unable to j
i i -tinguish between the freedom and licen
tiousness of speech. There isasmuchdif
| * rence between the two as there is between
decency and indecency, honesty and dis
ln-nesty, virtue and vice. It is however
not true that we took the ground it states.
On the other hand, we expressly gave an
I invitation to all the blackguards, swindlers,
I blackleg.'-, drunkards, et id oimie genus, in
c.-e the Town Ilall was hereafter to be
1 used to gratify private malice or vindictivc-
I ne- 5 , to call " public meetings" and go to
woik at their hellish vocation. Dy the by,
arc v.c to regard the Democrat as an apolo
gist for the " freedom of speech" lately cx- i
crcised there? Me ask this because it
fir.-t condemned but now seems to regard
the late proceedings as all rijht!

Mr. Editor —With your permission, 1 will
•five your readers a brief account of an in
ton -ting anil pleasing entertainment given on
the ning of the 14th inst., by school No,
t'.,-1 nion township, generally known as tin:
?>l'i:li:inicsvii!e School, taught by Mr. D. Al
b-it. The exercises, consisting of declama
ti i>s dialogues, music, essays, etc., were of j
a character that would interest parents, stini
ulate pupils to renewed effort, and serve to
keep alive an interest in common school nf
I firs. I'he declaiming was good, considering !
the youtbfulness <d' most of tiie speakers.
The dialogues were well performed, and Loth
they and the declamations, although a num
ber of them were humorous."were free from j
that c arse, Dutch and Irish balderdash that I
has caused so many to indiscriminately con
demn all school exhibitions. The music was
•me of the most interesting and gratifying!
f dares, and the manner in which the pupils
acquitted themselves in performing it could
nt fail to please a'l who were j resent. The
e -av-, taking the place of the " Scholar's
(b in." a manuscript paj er published occa
t-hoially by the pupils of this school, were!
veil written and well rea I. Upon the whole,
liib was one ol those pleasing little episodes 1
tl -f mav lc made to break in upon and re
is- much <d the usual tedium of school life,
aid ever afterwards render school and its as
sociations more pleasing to the voung.

vicxaii.ler M Coy, residing on the farm of

crunty, came to his death in a singu'ar
tui'iner on Wednesday morning last. It
seems that lie arose from his bed about five
o'clock, and repaired to a hogshead to get
■water with which to wash himself. The
•water being low in the vessel—about two
feet—lie procured a small box, upon which
lie stood, to enable him to reach it the
more readily. While upon this box, lean
ing over the hogshead, he lost his balance,
and fell head foremost into it. Deing till
able to extricate himself, he drowned be
lore assistance reached him. He was about
seventy years of age, and had resided with
'lie family of Mr. Courtney for the Inst
twenty years. The Coroner's jury render- !

Gross Outrage at Palmyra.
Attempt be/ lire/gars to I fang a Girl— :
. 1 crest. of one of the Culprits. —Two offi
cers from Palmyra arrived in the city last j
evening in search of one of the perpetra
tors of a fiendish outrage committed upon (
a young girl iu that village in broad day
light, on Monday last. At about half-past
eleven o'clock, a. in., two rough looking
men entered the dwelling of Mr. Capron,
in the village, the only occupant at the
time being the servant girl, who is a na
tive of Palmyra, and highly respectable, j
They demanded " something to eat," which
the girl refused, as her mistress was out. j
They immediately seized her, and, while
one placed his hand over her mouth to sti
fle her cries, the other tore off her apron
and made a sort of rope of it. They then
conveyed their victim to the cellar, and
without further ill treatment tied the apron
tightly about her neck, and then hung her
upon a large nail in a beam overhead.— ,
Having done this the ruffians left.
After hanging a short time, the nail
broke, and the girl fell to the floor, where
• - shortly afterwards found in an in
-ibie Mate by Mr. and Mrs. Capron,
returned. They of course were
to account for the str: age state of
.nd it was not until some time in
in tint the girl recovered suffi-
Ciently to h ■ abh to render an account of
a.i.v- ;... . ccurreu. Officers were imme- ■
diutely starteu in pursuit of the guilty par
ties, and one man was arrested on a canal
boat who was identified by the girl, and
the other is supposed to be William Forbes,
a character well known to the police. Jlo- '

A Strange Girl —The Hwtford (Con
necticut) Press of June 4th, say- The
o'A Abby Jane V aire, who escaped from
the State Prison on the 14th of May, was
found tiiis morning under the barn of Win
throp Duck, who lives near the Folly in
Wcathersfield. She lived in a hole under
tlie haymow, crawling into holes that a
wood chuck would hesitate to enter, and j
subsisting by milking the cows, sucking
c nPb on what she could pick up around
houses at night. Traces were discovered of
her having even visited the Prison and j
broken into the kitchen since her escape.
She so cms to he -a half-witted creature with
the cunning and activity of a wild animal.

J[ou. John Schwartz. —\V e have intelligence
of tno death on V odnesday night, at Wash

ber of Congress from iiio IJcrks County Dis
trict, in this State. Mr. Schwartz's public
life c niui'-need in 1 '•■"'B, when lie was elected
to Congress over J. Clancy Jones, now Min
ister to Austria, after one of the most exciting
and stubborn contests ever witnessed in this
State. Ihe issue during the canvass was Lc
conipton and anti-Lecompton. Mr. Schwartz
receiving the support of those opposed to the
policy of the Administration in Kansas. lie
was not a man of showy attainments, but du
ring bis short career in Congress he has been
distinguished for sterling good sense and a
watchful attention to the interests of his con
stituents and State, lie was sixty-sevenyears
of age.
The Huntingdon Union says a little girl,
five years old, named Mary i'ope, was at the
depot with ber father on Saturday evening,
when the 7 o'clock express, west, arrived, and
thinking that he had got on the train, she at
tempted to follow him and got on the plat
form of one of the ears, v. hcn the train start
ed. She kept hold for about a quarter of a
mile, lot on turning the curve above the
Broad Top Basin, she was thrown off and so
badly injured that her recovery is doubtful.
Her lata had gctie into Thomas' saloon,
and was not on the train at all.
