Curious te Knew.
Carlisle Volunteer.
This'is a remarkable course of proceed preceed
ure. for the iudsc makes himself presecu
ter, judge, jury and all, atone fell sweep,
instead of bringing a suit for libel, as any
.sensible man would have done when he
felt himself aggrieved in the columns
of a newspaper, and submit the
matter te a jury for determina
tion. The press of the country is
.singularly unanimous in its condemnation
of this outrage upon justice, and we have
the first favorable comment te see, among
the very man v we have .seen, which ap
proves of Judge Patterson's action. It is
quite certain that this eminent jurist has
get himself into a split stick, and it will
b e a little curious te knew just hew he

A Preitmiiig Outlook.
IMii :iiU'Il)I:i Recerd.
Tile future of tobacco cultivation in
Pennsylvania seems premising, if the ac
complishments of the past in this direction
are te be taken as evidence. In 1830,
when the largest portion of the ciep was
raised in Yerk county, the yield was 1,--100.000
pounds, and this was regarded as
something extraordinary in tobacco cul
ture. Since that time it has become a pait
-of the growing crops in a number of coun
ties, and Lancaster, Yerk and Lebanon
counties the principal counties of the
.state in which tobacco is grown at 24,
0(10,000 pounds, and this will reali.e about
4:1,000,000. A better yield even than this
is expected in 1880.
Oruntl Fex limit.
On Friday a grand bag fox hunt will take
place at the Washington hotel in Wallace

proprietor of the hotel, will let Reynard out

dashing horseman of Heney brook, the
Brubaker brothers of Lancaster county,
and last but net least Brisbine Skiles, the
king hunter of Salisbury, Lancaster coun

Before Judge Patterson this afternoon

cases of Jacob Shcnk and James McCIune,
committed yesterday by Alderman Spur
rier en numerous charges of larceny. W.U.
Hensel. esq., counsel for defendants, asked
for a lc-hearing of the commonwealth's
testimony, claiming that it had been ut
terly insufficient te make out a prima facie
case or warrant a conviction. VTnder such
a charge the court said it felt bound te go
into a re-hearing of the case, but that the
commonwealth should have time te pro
duce its evidence, and accordingly lixed
Saturday at 2 p. in. te hear the case.

WHY WE LAUGH!
THE SEVENTH VABD CONTESTED
ELECTION CASE
Merringer Elected Constable by a Majority
of Twenty.
Court met at 9 o'clock this morning in
the orphans' court room, Judge Patterson
presiding.
J. L. Steinmetz, esq., called the atten
tion of the court te the fact that the time
set apart for opening the Seventh waid
ballet-box and counting the votes declared
illegal had arrived.
Judge Patterson, who has had tne baleot-box
in custody ever since the contest
commenced last fall, produced it and
handed it te the commissioners, David
McMuUcu aud II. R. Fulton, esqs.
The box was opened and the commis
sioners examined the votes that had been
declared illegal. The result was as fol fel
lows :
Of the votes attacked by the Republican
petitioners and declared illegal by the
court, it was found that Jehn McGrann,
Augustus Waitz, Philip Gerz, Jeseph
Beyer and Jehn F, Myerle, jr., had voted
for Meninger (Democrat), aud that Jehn
McManus had voted for Erisman.
Of the votes attacked by the Democratic
respondent and declared illegal by the
court, it was found that Allen Wilsen,
Matthias Rcsh, Adam Ripple, Wm. Themas
Rebert Orr, Samuel Grey, James Waters,
and Peter Hilliard (all of whom had
sworn they had voted ler erisman;
had voted for Erisman. And that the
following named illegal voters, who declin
ed te swear for whom they voted, had also
voted for Erisman : Edward Sander.6,
Spencer Weeds, Leenard Peters, Geerge
W. Parks, Franklin Archey, Frank Hart,
Charles Butler, Geerge Asten, Philip
Thompson, Geerge Brown, Jeseph Turner,
and S. J. Davidsen ; and that Edward
Clark had voted for Merringer.
The votes of Charles W. Schwehel and
Emanuel Finefrock (numbered respect
ively en the poll book 14:5 and 321 and de
clared by the court te be illegal could net
be positively identified, the numbering
being in lead pencil, and tendered indis
tinct by repealed handling. A count of
all the votes in the ballet-box, however,
showed the total number te be 559, the
same number as shown by the tally list. Of
the thirty votes declared illegal by the
court Merringer received G and Erisman
24, leaving Merringer's legal majority 20.
Even supposing the illegal votes of C. W.
Schwcbel and Emanuel Finefrock (both of
whom swore they voted for Erisman)
were declared as having been cist for
Merringer, Merringer's majority would
still be 10 15 mere than the election offi
cers gave him.
The commissioners have net jet "offi
cially" made known te the court the result
of their examination of the ballet box.
After that shall have been done, the ceuit
will no doubt make an order disposing of
the costs.
Great credit is due te J. L. Steinmetz,
esq., counsel for respondent, for the able
manner in which he concluded the case.
He was indefatigable in gathering and
collating testimony in behalf of his client,
and every law point raised by him during
the trial was sustained by court.
Feuling With Firearms.
Last night, Harry X. Hewell made a
narrow escape from being shot by Frank
Jenes, at the Empire truck house. Several
young men were in the house when Jenes
came in and took a revolver from his
pocket : he was told that Hewell was in
the water closet ; he then pointed the re
volver in that direction and shot. The
men had had no quarrel and'it is supposed
that Jenes shot "for fun."' It wascei
tainly very dangerous sport.
Mr. Jenes claims that the pistol contain
ed nothing but a blank cartridge, and that
the weapon was net pointed toward How Hew
ell when discharged.

Brandy as a Medicine.
The following article was voluntarily sent te
Mr. II. E. Slaymaker, Agent for Reigart's Old
Wine Stere, by a prominent practising physi
cian et this county, who has extensively used
the Brandy referred te in ills regular practice.
It is commended te the attention of these af

Indigestion and Dyspepsia.
BRANDY AS A MEDICINE.
Tills new much abused Alcoholic Stimulant
was never intended as a beverage, but te be
used as a medicine of great potency in the cu re
of some of the destructive diseases which
sweep away their annual thousands of victims.
With a purely philanthropic motive we pre
sent te the favorable notice et invalids espe
cially these atlltcted with that miserable dis
ease Dyspepsia, a specific remedy, which is
nothing mere or less than
Brandy.
The aged, with feeble annctite ami mere or
less debility, will 11 nd this simple medicine,
when used properly,
A Sovereign Remedy

strictly understood that we prescribe and n-
but one article, and that is;
REIGART'S
OLD BRANDY,
Sold by our enterprising yeiiBg
friend, II. E. SLAYMAKER. This
Brandv has steed the test for
tuadk mark, years, and has never failed, as far
as our experience extends, and we therefore
give it the preference ever all ether Brandies,
no matterwith hew manyjaw-breaking French
titles they are branded. One-fourth of the
money that Is yearly thrown away en various
Impotent dyspepsia specifics would suffice t
buy all the Brandy te cure any such case r

Reigart's Old Brandy,
In cases et Dyspepsia, we can summon numl
hers of witnesses one case in particular wa
cite:
A hard-working farmer had been a filleted
with an exhaustive Dyspepsia ler a number of
years; his stomach would reject almost every
kind of feed; he had sour eructatiens con
stantly ue appetite in fact, he was obliged t
restrict his diet te crackers and stale bread,
and as a beverage he used McGrann's Reet
Beer. He is a Methodist, and then, as new,
preached at times, and In ids discourses efte
declaimed earnesUy against all kinds of strong
drink, w hen auviscu te iry
Reigart's Old Brandy,
In his case, he looked up with astonishment,
but after hearing of its wonderful effects in
the cases of some of his near acquaintances, he
at last consented te fellow our advice. He
used the Brandy faithfully ana steauny; me
first bottle giving him an appetite, and before
the second was taken he was a sound man.with
a stomach capable of digesting anything which
he chose te eat. He still keeps it and uses a lit
tle occasionally; and since he has this medi
cine he has been of very little pecuniary bene
fit te the doctor. A Practising Physician.

A correspondent of the Rochester (N.
Y.) Union points out that there is likely
te be a hitch in the Republican pregramme
for cheesing the New Yerk electors next
fall by the Legislature or by congressional
districts, instead of by popular vote. A
recent amendment te the constitution pro
vides that
" When the right te vote at any election
for the choice of electors for president; and
vice president of the United States
is denied te any of the male inhabitants of
such state, being 21 years of age and, citi
zens of the United States, or in any man
ner abridged, except for participation in
rebellion or ether crime, the basis of rep
resentation therein shall be reduced in the
proportion which the number of such, male
citizens shall bear te the whole number of'
male citizens 21 years of age in such
state.
The result, then, of the Republican at
tempt te deprive all the people of their elec
toral votes would be te wipe out the entire
congressional representation of the state.
It is net probable that the Republicans
will view this unexpected phase of the
question with entire satisfaction.
THE CUBAN EARTHQUAKES.
A Visit te San Cristobal, the Centre of Dis
turbance Churches Dismantled, OSces
Overthrown, Jails Totter
ing and a Stream Impreg
nated With Salphur.
Cable te the Herald.
The recurrent earthquake shocks in
Vuelta Abajo and Havana have thoroughly
alarmed the timid inhabitants of Western
Cuba. Toward five o'clock en the morn
ing of Sunday, January the 25, a slight os
cillation in this city reused a comparatively
few from their slumber. Later a sinister
heave.tessed people from their pillows and
caused no little consternation. These recent
tremors have been multiplied at certain
points of the interior, where en the night
of the 25th three shocks are recorded at
nine, eleven and two o'clock. Frem San
Diege, Santiage de las Vegas, Pinar del
Rie, Cienfuegos, Mariel, and elsewhere,
come accounts of earthquakes and public
terror, monopolizing the press te the ex
clusion of ether matter. San Cristobal,
the apparent centre of the disturbance, is
a town of about a thousand inhabitants
andone hundred houses. It is seventy
livp miles from Havana and seventeen
miles from Majana bay, en the south
coast.
A visit discloses the fact that the con
cussion there kut Thursday night nearly
tumbled the place te ruins. The church
stands tottering, with its portico disman
tled in front, its pillars razed, its cupola
awry, its windows shattered and its altar
disturbed. The priest escaped from his
house while the wall was falling. The tel
egraph office is half demolished. The gov
ernment aud principal buildings are unten
able. A drug store, which was large and
heavily stocked te supply the surrounding
country, is cracked in the interior and
strewn deep with debris from empty
shelves. A primitive and cumbersome
jail filled with prisoners and their guards,
is dismembered in every part. The pres
ence of mind of the inmates was unique.
The prisoners instantly leaped for liberty,
and the guards as promptly interfered.
One convict was shot dead after emerging
through a crevice made by the earthquake
and bursting open an outer deer. Three
guards were wounded in the melee. Four
teen ethers of the inmates are in hospital
with injuries sustained from falling beams
and masonry.
The dwellings suffered en a line distinct
ly traceable through the town, intcrscctinr
the afore-mentioned building and leaving
ethers almost unharmed, though most ei
them were badly built of adobe. An
American from Portland, Me., was nearly
crushed under his kitchen chimney. A
small stream runs past San Cristobal, ami
the railroad bridge that spans it had its
foundations se shaken that trains new cress
at a snail-like pace until repairs can be
made. On the verge of this stream sev
eral fissures are discernible, being from
three te ten inches wide and from forty te
one tiuudrcd feet long. Seme of them ai
of considerable depth. The inhabitants
aver that en the morning after the earth
quake these fissures emitted sulphureus
vapors, and that the stream, itself was
strongly impregnated with sulphur and
salt.
A military guard and committee of en
gineers were dispatched te San Cristobal
by the government, and their decisicn is
understood te be that 110 injured structures
shall be repaired, but all must come down
and be rebuilt. Meanwhile scores of resi
dents are leaving a spot that is new deemed
te be accursed. The wildest theories are
rife, based en superstitions three centu
ries old. In the country dozens of evil
influences are held te be accountable, while
in Havana the New Yerk gas company's
fresh trenches arc denounced by negre
preachers, who prophesy a speedy apoca
lypse, preceded by a swallowing up of the
earth. The captain general aud his army
are in the centre of the island. Meantime
the government has taken measures id
temporary relief for these who have been
excluded from their homes at San Cristo
bal and elsewhere.
