HABEAS CORPUS CASE.
Contest ler Poweaaien of a Child.
There was great excitement in the or
phans' court room and the corridors of the
court house this morning, between 9 and
10 o'clock, growing out of a family diffi
culty, of a year's staudiug, ' between
Frederick Wolf and his wife, and their
mutual friends. The case was heard by
his honor Judge Livingston, en a writ of
7tabeas corpus, granted en application of
Mrs. Wolf, for the recovery of her little
son, aged about 10 years, whom she al
leged was improperly restrained by her hus
band. The case was partially beam before
Judge Livingston yesterday afternoon at 4
o'clock and was resumed this morning.
Frem the testimony offered it appeared
that Mr. and Mrs. Wolf had lived rather
unhappily together for some time, and
that about a year age, after hacking the
furniture with a hatchet and otherwise
behaving badly, he left the house. The
reason he gave for his violent conduct was
that his wife had transferred her affections
te another man. On leaving the house Mr.
Wolf took bearding at the Exchange
hotel and continued te beard there until a
few days age his wife, two children and
! iiiei.mnn" vmtinuinr te occupy
the house he left. On Tuesday Mr. Wolf
says his little boy Charlie came
te the barter shop uareioetcu, ,peeny
flail anil vvin. and told his
father that his mother had driven
him freni the house and told him never te
come back. He then bought the boy new
shoes andancw suitef clothes and took him
te his brother Henry's, where he was prop
erly cared for, and Mr. Wolf thereupon
gave up his room at the Exchange and
took bearding at his brother Henry's, se
as te be near and take care of him. In
answer te a question by the court, Mr.
Wolf said he was willing te go back te his
home and provide for his wife and children
en couditien that the obnoxious man new
quartered there was turned out of the prem
ises. Te a question pat te Mrs. Wolf as
te whether she was willing te accept these
conditions she sai.l " never," and there
was a lively time stiiieng the friends or the
respective parties, Mrs. Wolf and her
mother being tcnibly excited by the charge
iliat fihe had ever been ether than a loyal
wife. The court decided te allow the child
te remain in custody of the father, where
he has a geed home and where he prefers
te be ; but ordered that the mother should
have the privilege of visiting him en all
reasonable occasions.
At the conclusion of the case there was
a. lively quarrel among the women in the
corridor, which wa only quelled by
threats of locking up the disputants.

Part of the extensive steam tauncry of

There is need of a proper buildingen the
campus that may serve as a library build
ing or for the present at least provide a
geed reading room, and also make room,
if that can be done, for a chemical appa
ratus, and for some mathmatical instru
ments. Mr. Kcrshncr, the newly appointed
mathematical professor, who has becu en
gaged for some time in the astronomical
observatory of Yale college, desires very
much te be supplied with an equateral,
live-inch telescope, that would cost $050, a
transit, three-inch telescope, cost $300, a
clock, standard, $450, and barometer,
Uteremeter, collimator, &c, $100 ; in all
say $1,701.
The beard of trustees at their annual
meeting, appointed a responsible commit
tee te inaugurate measures te provide a
scientific building. Why might net that
committee begin just here with the math
ematical department and then extend their
labors te the wants of the department of
chemistry, reading room, etc ? The great
matter is te make a beginning. When that
is done the friends of the college will net
allow it te want for anything necessary te
extend its usefulness.

POLE RAISING
The Yeang Demeeracjr of Old Celeraia.
The young Democrats of Union, Cole Cele
rain township, raised a beautiful Han
cock pole last Saturday. Without one jar,
slip, break or discord, the talL handsome
hickory settled into the foundation, and
raised its top one hundred and two feet
above the ground, trembling as though
thrilled by the reusmc cheers that went
up with it, honest, hearty, grand solid
as the pole or the principles it represents.
The drawing up of the flag, of course, was
the signal for another geed hurrah, and
the Union's young Democrats are
net one bit behind in anything, cheers net
excepted. Beneath the flag hangs a large
white shield, upon one side of which ap
pears, as a light te the Democratic
eye, and a writing-en-the-wall te the Re
publican, '-Hancock, English and Vic
tory," and upon the ether side " Han
cock, English and Reform."
The Independent cornet band furnished
excellent music and everything went

F. McGee and Jas. Walker, esq., address

young Democracy upon their enthusiasm
in the cause, and their success in raising

DEATH IN THE MINE
THE COLUEBV DISASTER AT SEAHAM.
DISASTROUS FIRES.
Incidents and Accidents of a Day.
TD.E SEAHAM DISASTER.
Details or the Terrible Mine Explosion One
Hundred and Thirty atlll Missing;.
Londen, Sept. 9 1 a. m. The accounts
of the number of men in the Seaham col
liery pit vary. The pit consists of five
seams, ene below another. The shallow
est scam is 460 feet below the surface
The total depth of the colliery is about
COO yards. Nineteen men in the top seam
merely felt a rush of air, but en proceeding
te the shaft found it blocked by debris.
The air coming up the shaft was exceeds
ingly foul. Communication with the tepi
seam was opened at one o'clock yesterday
afternoon, but because of the drainage te
the shaft the men could only be heisted
eut6ingIyby chains and ropes. Nearly
all of them therefore elected te remain in
the pit se as net te delay the explorer in
clearing away te the lower seams whence
knockings and sheutings were audible
About 7 o'clock in the evening the up cast
shaft was sufficiently cleared te allow the
explorers te use it, also enabling the bring
ing up of the victims te proceed mere
rapidly. Several men near the furnace at
the bottom of the up cast shaft were found
te be shockingly burned.
It is thought that the explosion origin
ated in the lower seams and that the gas
was driven ever the furnace. The explor
ers for a time had te suspend the work of
bringing up the survivors in consequence
of the stables being en tire. A woman
dropped dead en hearing of the death of
her brother in the pit. A store room has
been cleared for the reception of the
corpses.
The latest published telegram from the
inspector of mincs,datcd from Seaham at 9
o'clock last evening, says : "Fifty-nine men
have been rescued and 130 are yet te be
accounted for. The exploration has been
stepped in consequence of fire in two mid
dle scams. Great anxiety is felt for these
still in the pit. There is plenty of assist
ance, with relays of workers every four
hours."
It would appear from the above des
patch from the inspector that there has
been a later outbreak of the fire.
5 a.m. It new seems that the dead in
the Seaham mine number between 130 and
140. These are some corpses in the lower
seams which are supposed te be lying a
mile from the shaft. The air there is se
foul that it is thought te be impossible
that any can have survived.
