    & Co.'s Chickies Steam Saw Mill, just below
Marietta, had one of his hands nearly sawed
off on Thursday last. This is the second time
Leader has been caught by a circular saw—
tbe other time taking off two fingers.
Before day light on Saturday last two men
called on the premises of Peter C. Ebersole,
at Silver Springs, this county, and asked to
be taken in. This was refused, and the men
went away. A horse and wagon was found
hitched near the house in the morning. This
excited suspicion, and search being made,
one of the men, named James A. Jenkins,
was arrested and committed to prison. The
horse and wagon were stolen from F..C. Jor
aan, of Middletown.
James Carroll, was arrested on Saturday.
'jr stealing a piece of cloth from the store of
.1. P. Myer, in this city. When asked what
Le had to say for himself, he stated that he
bad just this morning been discharged from
prison; that he went to Alderman Wiley's
and asked to be recommitted, but that the
Alderman refused to entertain his proposi
tion. He thought, therefore, that the easiest
way to get " home " was to commit a theft,
and he stole the goods with that object in
view. He was sent " home."
Now is the time to prepare for the Christ
mas trade. We are ready to print circulars,
invitations, cards, letter heads, &c., at the
shortest notice, and the very lowest prices.
The workmen at several of the furnaces
about Marietta, on. Saturday last, struck for
an increase of twenty cents per day to their
wages. The proprietors were compelled to
yield to the demand, rather than allow their
furnaces to chill, on the principle that "it
won't do to swap horses while crossing a
stream." The wages of the hands is now
51.60 per day.
The bill against Robert Clarkson, formerly
of this city, in the Philadelphia Court of
Quarter Sessions, for larceny as bailee, was
quashed by Judge Ludlow on Saturday last.
Another bill, free from defects of the former
nne, was subsequently presented to the Grand
Jury, who returned it marked "True."
The large three-story frame building in Mil
lersvile, owned by Henry Immel, and used as
a vinegar manufactory, was destroyed by fire
on Monday morning last. A large quan
tity of tobacco,
belonging to Mr. Immel and
Mr. J. Gerhart, which was in the building,
was also destroyed.
Satisfactory bonds having been furnished to
the government,the embargo upon the Bitters
establishment of Dr. S. B. Hartman & Co.,
Las been withdrawn, and it was re-opened for
business on Monday last.
A fearful epidemic has been raging among
the chicken tribe in parts of this county, and
great numbers have died. We hear of one
farmer near this city, who has lost over a
hundred. People who buy dressed chickens,
should exercise great caution.
The cabinet shop of John Bastian, in
Market street, Marietta, and the slaughter
I.OIISO of John Shillow, adjoining, were tie-
Iroyed by fire on Saturday afternoon last.
Mr. Bastian's loss, including tools, was about
,1200; Mr. Shillow's about 8600.
Francis Harnish, aged about 10 years, son
of David W. Harnish, residing near Willow
Street, fell from a wagon loaded with stone,
while in motion, on Friday last, and was so
severely injured 'by having his collar bone
crushed that he died on Sunday.
The Express says that Mr: David M. Byer,
f East Donegal township, last year raised
16,010 pounds of tobaccol or au average of
1700 to the acre. The tobacco was sold the
present year for $2,672.43—an average of
$286.93 per acre. During the present year
Eyer raised on six and a half acres an
average of thirty-eight bushels of wheat, and
tin fifteen acres an average of thirty-five
bushels.
John Dement], formerly of this city, was
elected Sheriff of Blue Earth county, Minn.,
the late election. He was the temperance
candidate, and was supported by the Demo
, rats against a Republican.
„„
Tin COvztT: ,the uotirt of Quarter Ses
t,ions for November term, 1869, for Lancaster
~ :ounty, commenced on Monday morning,
.Judges Long and Libhart occupying the
!tench, the former presiding. C. H. Kissley,
r f Manor township, was appointed foreman of
*he Grand Jury:
The bonds of Henry S. Shenck, Register
elect, were presented and approved, with
John K. Reed, 0. J. Dickey, Jos. Weichans
..nd Luther Richards, as sureties in 8.25,000.
The Court directed that the Jury Commis
sioners place one thousand names in the jury
wheel, from which to draw jurors during the
, °ming year.
There are 240 cases on the calendar for trial
at this term, 88 of which were returned since
the last term, the balance being cases which
have been continued at former terms.
William Leman, Esq., was appointed to
audit the accounts of the County officers.
After receiving the returns of Constables,
and transacting some current business, Geo.
Huber, complained against for making threats
against Jacob Huber and A. J. Book, was
sentenced to give security in the sum of $2OO
to keep the peace for four months, and pay
costs of suit in each case.
John Horner, of this city, was complained
against by his wife '
Mary Ann Horner, for
ill-treating her, and making threats against
her. John was directed to enter into his own
recognizance in the sum of $2OO to keep the
peace and pay costs:
Kate Wise, who had made complaint against
Wm. H. Buckius, for assault and battery,
failed to appear, and the case was dismissed,
costs to be paid by the County.
On Monday afternoon John Raid%an re-
ceived the usual sentence for being the father
of Kate Jones' child, he having plead guilty.
John Frauciscus was, at the suggestion of
Ihe District Attorney, declared not guilty of
a charge of False Pretense.
The Court ordered that each defaulting
nror be tined fifteen dollars.
George H. Hartman, of this ci Ass tried
for assault and battery on Mr* Aim
% ro
Horner. Her family occupied*: ' t
house of. Lewis Hartman, the hitheiv the
accused, and the rent not b eing ' paid promptly,
an attempt was made by the landlord to put
the family out according to law. An alterca
tion ensued, Mrs. Horner having hot water
ready for defense. A forcible entrance into
the house was etf,eted, and a scuffle ensued,
during which the lady threw the contents of
a crock, containing a mixture of privy dirt
and coal ashes upon George H. Hartman. He
struck Mrs. H. with a stick, and, it was al
leged, knocked her down. The evidence was
very contradictory. The Court, in charging
the jury, stated that a landlord had the tight
peaceably to.enter his premises, but if he at
tempted force, the occupant had the right to
resist such entrance; and entrance by break
ing open a door or window was a breach cf
the peace. The jury returned a verdict of not
guilty, the costs to lie divided between the
parties.
John IL Green, colored, was found guilty
of stealing severiii• shirts, pair of pantaloons
and other articles from John Brubaker, of
Salisbury twp., and sent to the County Pris
on for nine months.

stealing a coat from A. G. Killian, of Mount
Vernon, in October, and sentenced to six
months in County Prison.
Swami Shroad, a special policeman in 'the
city on Whit Monday, was tried for aaeault,
and battery on Moses Morris, colored, who
he had arrested for riotous conduct. The jury
found Shroad nut guilty, but made him pay
the costs. The witnesses for the defense tes
tified that Shroad beat Morris in an inhuman
manner, no doubt because he was.a "nigger"
—a class of people of whom Shroad and his
brother copperheads have a great contempt,
believing that they have no rights which a
white man is bound to respect.
On Tuesday morning, verdicts of not guilty
were taken in the cases of Lewis Hartman
and Lewis Hartman, jr., indicted for trespass
on the premises of Mary Ann Hoerner, and
her Attorney asked awl obtained a rule to
show cause why so much of the verdict in the
assault and battery case, as imposes half the
costs on her, should not be set aside.

tion of the Court, after hoaringthe testimony,
in the case of John Curtis, who was trie‘t for

sturant in Middle street, this city.

nesses against him had been sentenced On
Monday, and were in prison.

peace, on oath of B. S. Finnimore—the prose
cutor paying the costs.
Peter Hilliard, indicted for assault and bat
tery on Charles Crawford, was discharged,
the prosecutor failing to appear.
The case of Theodore Hauser, indicted for
False Pretense, was continued, the Governor
of New York refusing to honor the requisition
of Gov. Geary, on the ground that the offense
is statutary, and not punishable at Common
Law.

ed to drive them off, they made an attack up
on him. Verdict, not guilty. A charge of
Surety of the Peace against the same defend
ants, was dismissed.
