A Mistaken Father Attempts Illegal Ec Ec Ec
coveryef 111 Indentured Child.
A case of considerable juiciest te the
management of the Children VHe:ae and
te parents having children therein, was
disposed of by Alderman Barr yesterday.
Wm. Nixderf, a widower of the First
ward, this city, si peer laboring man, had
two children a son and a daughter sent
te the Heme. The little girl, about twelve
years old, under the rules of the institu
tion, was duly indentured te Philip II.
Moere, living en the AVabauk read, in
Lancaster township. A report reached
Nixderf that Moere had beaten the little
girl andjetherwise treated her cruelly ; se
he went te 3Ioero's te take her away. She
was at school at the time, and
Nixderf went te the school heuse
and took her away. After leading
her off for some distance, he wa'i met by
Mr. Moere, who insisted en taking the
girl back te his home, and after sonic
trouble tu?cceded in doing se. He then
sued Nixderf under the law which pro
vides punishment for these who entice ap
prentices te leave their masters ; and Nix-
derf sued Moere for assault and battery en
the little girl. 1 he cases were heard te
gether before Alderman iJarr, and the tes
timony showed that Mr. Moere and his
wife instead of being cruel te the little
girl had treated her with due kindness,
provided her with plenty of feed and com
fortable clothing and sent her te school as
provided for in the indentuic, and that the
little girl preferred stryiug with them te
going home with her father. The ease of
assault and battery against -Mr. Moere was
promptly dismissed.
Mr. Nixderf acknowledged that he went
te the school and took the little girl away
after he heard she had been abused, but
lie plead ignorance of the law, and said he
thought he had a right te take her home.
C N. Sproul, esq., who represented both
Mr.Moerc and the Heme said theiewas no
desire te press the ease against Nixderf,
provided he obligated himself te net again
interfere with the little girl or attempt te
take her away. Nixderf made the neces
sary obligation, and the ease agaiu.tt him
was dismissed.
The Heme management have been much
annoyed by iuueii.sulcratc parents attempt
ing te get their children out of the Heme
after they have hecn duly entered there, or
in getting them away irem the persons te
whom they have been indcniuied. Parents
and guardians should understand that
after children are admitted te the Heme
they will net be dismissed except
upon the most satisfactory evidence that
they will be as well provided for anil as
well educated outside tiie Heme as in it;
and that after inmates have been regular
ly indentured te learn trades, they must
remain with their employers until their
term of service expires or until their in
dentures have been legally cciicsllcd. On
the ether hand employers should bear in
mind that they tee are liable te punish
ment for ill usage towards their appren
tices or for neglecting te strictly fulfil all
the terms of their contract as specified in
the indenture.
Children arc only admitted te the Heme
upon the urgent application of parents or
upon a showing of some public interest de
manding their admission ; but te sever
their relation with it at the whim of every
unreasonable parent would he highly de
moralizing te a well conducted institution.
D.lving Accident.
Yesterday morning as Mr. Jacob Diehm
and wife, of Pcnn township, were en their
way te Lancaster, the left, front spindle e f
the top buggy in which thev were seated
broke entirely elf when neariiigthc school
beuse building, in Manheim borough.
The horse commencing te kick and run,
Mr. Diehm was jerked out of the buggy
en te the ground, and at Arudt's store the
animal, which had kepten miming, jumped
ever the iron railing en te the pavement,
demolishing the w.igeu and continuing his
course en the pavement up te Prussian
street, was caught in front of Mrs. Di.icn
derfer's bearding house. The wife and a
three-year-old child of William Ruth, who
liiad accompanied then, were forcibly
thrown en the pavement. Nene of the
three, however, is supposed te he seriously
injured ; but ene of the horse's hind legs
was somewhat lacerated and bruised
Oil' ttie Track.
At Mcllvain's mil read siding, IJello IJelle IJello
mente, yesterday, one of the trucks of a
freight car jumped the rail blocking up the
south track of the read for half an hour or
mere. The accident was caused by a loose
wheel.
At Glen Lech, yesterday afternoon, a
freight car also left the track causing a
short delay te passenger and freight
trains.
Blasting.
Blasting rock is of very frequent occur
rence, but blasting earth is mere rare.
This morning, laborers employed in dig
ging a trench te connect a sewer from
Senseiiig's new building with the public
sewer corner of Duke and Grant streets,
found the ground se badly frozen, that
it wasse hardjte dig it up with picks, that
they attempted te blast it with powder.
The attempt was only partially successful,
as the blasts expended themselves beneath
the frozen crust, and the men finally built
aline of lire along the trench ami thus
thawed out the frost.

who use large quantities of ice during the
summer, are availing themselves of the
present cold snap te harvest a supply of
ice. On the city reservoir and ponds in
the vicinity of the city the ice is almost
five inches thick and en the Concstega
from three te four inches.

OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE
The mercury at 12:45 o'clock points te
seventeen degrees Black's hotel the spot.
There has been a fall of about a feet in
the river in the last couple of days. It is
new but little, if any, above low water
mark. The ice, we guess, is a permanent
fixture for the season.
The Frederick accommodation train west
was fifty minutes late yesterday after
noon. Chester Herbert, a seven-year-old school
boy, at the Cherry street building, was
accidentally knocked down while drinking
water at the hydrant yesterday afternoon,
and falling en the iron receiving trough,
was severely cut en the forehead. The ac
cident occurred at recess. Herbert's cut
is about three incnes long ana raiuer
deep. He was taken home.
Council will held its regular monthly
meeting this evening. Something will
probably be done in the question of mar
kets. The east yard at this place was blocked
last evening and the Harrisburg accem
modatien train west was compelled te run
in en the south track. Dispatcher Heclar
says a freight tram sacaked men him and
dead-locked everything.
"We took a walk yesterday afternoon te
a point near the St. Charles furnace in
search of a geed skating ground, but
were unsuccessful in finding a suitable
spot. There is plenty of ice, but it is net
of the light kind. Lying in the basin and
canal near the point mentieued are new
fiem twenty te thirty or forty canal beats,
all lirmlv held by the ice. Seme of the
crews yet held the fort in the cabins.
The river, in front of town is again
closed. Ice formed last night between the
bridge and the dam and is at this writing
about an inch thick. It is a very pretty
sheet, but is net as smooth as was that of
the first freeze. The mercury last night
was wholly en the descending scale.
The boys complained against by. Dr.
Kline, of Chestnut Hill, fordiserderly con
duct will be given a hearing te-morrow
afcrnoen before Justice Evaus.

colliery, January 15, 1873, when sixty per

earth shaking as if there were an earth

Departing Frem the Doctrine of the Fathers.
New Yerk Sun.
When the fathers of the constitution
were framing that instrument, it was pro
posed te confer en the chief executive of the
nation some high-sounding title, uch His
Highness or His Majesty. But the sturdy
statesmen of the Revolutionary period re
jected the preposition, and decided that
he should have no royal haudlc te his
name, but should be called simply The
President.
Mr, Hayes has departed from the spirit
of the Fathers, and has been cudgelling
his bruin te suggest some new title for the
already much-titled Grant. Already a new
military rank and title higher than a ny
bestowed upon Washington have been
created for the special benefit of Grant.
The next thing te be expected is an am
bitious party in American politics boldly
proposing te confer, the title of Emperor
upon Grant, carrying with it Imperial pew-
mm ier uic aim alter ins death te his
eldest son.
On the question of conferring a new title
en Grant it is te he hoped the Democracy
will present a united front in opposition.
It is net the trifling matter the Jlenubl:-
