Stock Ballooning.
Light is let in upon one of the numer
ous stock jobbing operations of Mr. Jay
Gould by the .story of the contemplated
new line from Philadelphia te Baltimore.
It seems that Mr. Gould, of the Jersey
Central ; Mr. Vandeibilt, of the New
Yeilc Central : Mr. Gauett. of the Bal
timore & Ohie; Mr. Drexel, of Phila
delphia : and Mr. McCeinb, of Dela
ware, formed a syndicate te secure a
chaiter ler and te build the Delaware
& Western raihead as an opposition
line te the Philadelphia, Wilmington x
Baltimore read. That corporation, of
course, contested the matter in the
Legisatuse: but suddenly a preposition
is made te transfer the control of the
old line te the promoters of the new.
The immediate advantage eflcicd is
the opportunity te put up the stock
in the Xf.v Yeik market fieni
seventy te one bundled and dhide
the pie!it. The speculation is
entirclj in Mr. Gould V line and no doubt
the suggestion come from him. Mr.
G.irictt falls in with it. being eager te at
once get a New Yei k connection under
bib font i id. Mr. McComb declines be
cause lie is committed te the people of
D'Iaai te procure a competing line te
the existing monopoly. Mr. Drexel and
""Mr. Vandeibilt also, stay out, piebably
because they fe.ir they would be paying

A Heed Han (ienc Wrong.
Judge Galbraith, of Erie, whose in
tegrity and ability we have often
found occasion te commend, ha-; recently
made a remarkable ruling in a case of
criminal libel. It is one which, if sus sus
tained.weuid de as much te overturn the
present established law in such eases and
te unsettle the existing responsibility of
new.spapcr publishers, as Judge P.itter P.itter
se:is law in our disbarment ci"" would
have seiieiisly affected the h-g.il profes
sion had it been .sustained by the- higher
courts. It has never before been held,
we believe, thai in libel, any mere than
m any ether criminal case, there can be
convicMen wheie an utter absence of
malicious intent or even criminal knowl
edge by the dcfer.diiut.ef the offense laid,
i.s shown : nor has any su !i evidence
b-dere hem excluded from the jury,
made the judgesefth" law and the tacts,
i'i any criminal prosecution within our
knowledge. Judge Galbtaith intieduces
this innovation by which an employer
beeemcs criminally responsible for the
acts of his employee, committed without
his knowledge or autheiity and even in
disobedience te his instiitctien'.
In the case in point a local lepeiler of

tiic absence of malice ; thai the alleged
article was cenceivi.lin a spiiii of inne-
c ni liiirih and lnibiislud as a jek-j ; that
tiie iei.it ions b'-t ween plaintiff and th"
defendant were ei t lie friendliest char-
ler ; that there had lie
been anv
dilTcirnces betwc.'n them of any kind and
hence no motive for publishing a libel ;
th l the alleged libel waspubli-iicd with
out tiic knowledge of the d.dcndant and
against his general insti actie;. s te his

published after lie had left the efikv ler

HORRIBLE FIRE.
EIGUT riiKSONS CREMATES.
3Irs. Slean, Six Children and Her Brether
Keasted at East Liverpool, Ohie.
The fire of Monday night in the bauk
building. East Liverpool, Ohie, destieying
the sleeping apartments ever Staley's res
taurant, seems te have been a foretaste of
the hcait-sickeuiug leastiug which was te
fellow. Yesterday morning about half
past 1 o'clock flames were discovered is
suing fieni the diug store of Slean Bres.,
in Frauk Stewart's four-story frame build
ing, corner Broadway and Sixth stieets,
used by him as a feed store and baled hay
waieheuse and occupied also by Mr. Kauf
man as a grocery. It is supposed that
Slean, being a new coiner te thc town, did
net knew of the heavy pressuie
which comes en at times fieni the
natural gas. and left it binning
in the "" diug stoic, ever which
lie was sleeping, with his family of
wife and seven children, and brother-in-law,
a Mr. Skeels, (if Harrison county,
Ohie, and wdie only an i veil in town
en Tuesday te pay them a visit. On dis dis
ceveiing the flames Mr. Slean woke all,
and picking up a little daughter three
j ear old, te'd them te fellow. The stair
ways weie by this time burned away, and
escape by th it means cut off. Turning te
the fient of thc building he told his wife,
with babe in her arms, and children te fol fel
low him, and leaped te the ground. The
wife and ehikhcu were either oveiceme
by thc ll.uues and stilling fumes from the
diug store, or failing te get the chilihen te
jump, pieiened death with them. Mr.
Slean hoped by jumping first te be able te
catch the ethers and bieak the feice of
their fall, and, although breaking his !e
in the leap, h-'bbied around crying out pit pit
ceusly for the ethers.
The building was eicctcd last summer
and was a pei feet lii e trap, having num
erous elevateis i milling up through the
feui th fleer which opened up an inviting
pathway for the fiery lieiiti, and ue.uly
every lioer being filled Avith hay, the 11 lines
spiead with frightful rapidity and iu
twenty or th'uty minutes the entire sti ac
tum was consumed. Tiieliicmcn, by heroic
weik, confined the fire te Stcwait's build
ing and a. small adjoining frame lesidence.
At seven o'clock next morning the l uius
weie suftieii'iiUy reduced te commence the
seai h for the. bodies, three streams of
water having penied en them from two
o'clock. Mis. Slean was found with her
b.ibe in her aims, and both burned nearly
tiaeiisp. Areu'id them weie huddled
t ic bodies of the ethei live children, all
hiving hustled in one corner, and died as
close te the mother as they could cling.

indeed of mray ether' distant euutiics.
Iu consequence the firm are almost daily

that garments can be manufactured fiem
