Skeleton of a Man found in the 'Woods On the 19th inst., a putty of men and boys, while out gunning,' near Raub's in the neighborhood of Ringtown, discovered the skeleton of a man. He appeared to be well•dressed, having on new boots, good clothing, ttc. About his clothes were found n catholic prayer book, a pistol, some keys, three clay pipes and a watch chain. When found he was lying on a declivity ; about him where his hat and overcoat. A coro ner's jury was empunneled, who, alter viewing the case, came to the conclusion that he was one of the party who, about a year ago, attacked the house of Mr, Henry Rapp, near the place above, mentioned, where Mr. Johnson was killed, and Mr. Rapp severly wounded. It is supposed, from circumstantial evidence, that the man, after being shot by Johnson, lett the main body of assailants and took to the woods, (lie being tracked in the direction for some distance,) tying a handkerchief (which was found on him) around his body to prevent the blood from dropping, and thus enable Lis pursuers to track hint. Persons living in the neighborhood bad often noticed the extivia, peculiar to a dead body long ex posed, but could not account for it.

The body was lying twenty yards from the road, and had, it is supposed, been there since the 21st of last March, just a year ago. His re mains were buried on the spot.—Pottsville Agf.andard. Are Pantaloons titattonery The question, "Are pantaloons statione ry?" will certainly be revived when the public comes to the perusal of Mr. McPher son's bill for "stationery" furnished to the House of Representatives in the year 1867. Hack hire, horse hire, kid gloves by the hundred dozen, Scotch snuff, thousands of penknives, toilet soap, nail-brushes, and cockscrews are among the swindles put down as "stationery." It Is also "station ery" to pay the traveling expenses and board bills of the "loll" loafers employed by the Radical party to perumhulate the South to assist in preventing the restoration of the Union. This swindle is effected by summoning these impecunious patriots before "a committee," asking them to tell a lie about something, and then paying their fares to and from New Orleans or Browns ville, on the Rio Grande, with a board bill at Willard's during the session. It is pos sible that these frauds upon the Treasury and this repeated robbery of tax-payers may be popular, but we doubt it. 'The mere cost to the country of the party now in power is alone a sufficient reason fcr getting rid of that party as soon as possible. THE Memphis Avalanche says A veteran sawbones, named Hagle, has been arrested at the State capital for kid napping negro children and running them them off as servants for the returning inem hers of the Legislature.

It appears that the deceased had on entering • the building first securely fastened the door, and then placed a narrow piece of board so as to rest on the frame work of the .upper part of the building, to this be firmly attached the rope and then swung himself off from an adjoining projection of the building. He had evidently obtained the board for this express purpose, and his whole conduct on the sad occasion goes to show that he was in full possession of all his mental faculties. The deceased leaves tt wife and three chil dren; the oldest of the children being ten or twelve years of age. A coroner's inquest was held soon after !the deplorable occurrence, and a verdict ren dered in accordance with the facts above stated. No good reason has been assigned why the deceased should have committed self-destruction. ANOTHER SUICIDE.—The State Guard states that Mr. Solomon Landis, an old and respectable citizen of Middletown, commit ted suicide yesterday by shooting himself with a rifle. Mr. Landis had become re cently involved in some difficulty by which he was the looser of $l2OO or $1500; and had brooded and worried over it greatly. The deceased was well advanced in years, being upward of seventy, and was reported to be worth from $50,000 to $75,000. Mr. Landis was liable, under .fits of despondency, to make attempts upon his life, and some six years ago attempted to hang himself and wa4 only saved, by his wife who found him and cut the rope from which he was sus pended. ' Loom. LECitSLATION.—The following bills were passed finally In the State Senate, on the 27th inst.: An act to prevent fishing with seines or nets In the East Conococheague creek, in the county of Franklin and Little Muddy Creek, La tractor county. An Oct to authorize Christopher Rowe, treasurer of the bounty fund of Strasburg borough, Lancaster county, to pay to the ti ensurer of the school board of said borough the fund remaining in his hands. An act to extend the provisions of an act for the protection of sheep in certain coun ties, approved April 8, A. L. 1882, to the townships of Elizabeth, West Earl and Up per Leacock, in the county of Lancaster. An act authorizing the directors of the poor and house of employment of Lancas ter county to donate and convoy land to the trustees of the Home of Friendless children of the city and county of Lan caster. An act relative to the mileage of the in spectors 01 the Lancaster county prison. An act.* enable the board of directors of common schools of Paradise township, Lan caster county, to apply surplus of bounty funds to common school purposes. alio following bill was read in place, in the House of Representatives on the 27th inst.: By ISfr. Armstrong, Rep., of Lancaster, a supplement to an act revising and amend ing the charter of the city of Lancaster, di viding the same into nine wards. (This hill increases the number of members of the select council from one to two in each ward.) PROSPECT HILL EXIIIIIITION.--The friends and patrons of the Prospect Hill School were pleasantly entertained on the nights of the 24th and 2.`ith inst., with a literary treat given by said School. The orations, speeches, declamations and dialogues, were very spicy, instructive and impressive, and well calculated to benefit the speakers and the audience The school is taught by A. W. Shuman, a gentlemen who is consider ed fully competent to till the responsible position of teacher. Mr. Shuman is a printer by trade, having served an apprenticeship to the business in the Saturday Evening Express otlice from 1852 to 1855. He followed his trade till 1857, when he laid down the slick used by print ers, and took up the rod, (which he uses only when he must.) He began teaching this school in 1858, and taught it till 1864, and was always liked by pupils and patrons. In 1865 he became a teacher in the Orphan School, in Mount Joy, where he remained till its vacation, last summer, when, while on a visit to his old friends and patrons, lie was persuaded to return to the School on the Hill, and neither parents nor pupils are sor ry that he came, and hope they may be able to secure his services in the future. The patrons of this school seem to be wide awake in the business of education, and spare no pains in doing all within their power to secure a good and useful educe Lion for their children. They do not wish to be of that class who show more care for their horses and cattle than the good train ing of their children. We are glad to see it. The amount of money raised by this exhibition i 512.6, six of which are to be used to defray expenses for curtains and other incidents's, and the remainings2o are to be given to the Children's Home, of this city. THE PROPOSED NEW COUNT v.—The York True Democrat has the following ar ticle on the proposed new county, which is to have Columbia for the county seat: "Some of our enterprising friends of Co lumbia, for want of something better to do, are agitating the question of organizing a new county, from York and Lancaster counties, with Columbia for the capital.— This new county is to bo 40 miles in length by i 0 in width, and of course would run very near our borough. What necessity exists for such a movement except it is to give importance to Columbia, we are not advised and cannot imagine. While we are always desirous of accommodating our friends, we have not yet reached that point of generosity, where we should be willing to give away our house, end live it the street. 'rids new county, if formed, would cut off this county from the Susquehanna, and make our capital away out to one side, which would be a very inconvenient ar rangement, to say the least. Our democratic friends might possibly takeexception to this new project, as it would throw the county debt upon the strongly democratic town ships, such. es the Codoruses, York, Heidel berg, Se. The XII article of the Constitu tion might also possibly be in the way of the ambition of our enterprising friends. It says: "No County shall be devided by a line cutting off over one-tenth of its popu lation (either to form a new county or other wise) without the express assent of such county by a Vote of the electors thereof nor shall any new county be established, con taining less than four square miles." This county contains 900 square miles, and as the "slice" which is proposed to be cut oft this county, must comprise over one tenth of the population of the county, we do not think the new county will exist anywhere except in the brilliant imagination of its projectors, at least not very soon. As a joke, we think this first class, or as a sub ject for an embryo debating society, it would afford a tine theme for a N ery speculative discussion. II our neighbors in Columbia desire to improve the borough and in crease the price of their town lots, they will promote their object much sooner in some other way ADDITIONAL BOUNTY BlLL.—BollBidera ble inquiry exists among soldiers, and others interested, as to the nature .of the additional bounty bill not long since, pass ed by congress,. We publish the material part of this bill, in order that all soldiers can judge for themselves whether they are entitled or not to bounty under its provis ions• Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That each and every soldier who enlisted Into the army of the United States, after the 19th day of April, 1861, for a period not less than three years, and having served the time of his enlistment, has been honorably dis charged, and who has received or who is entitled to receive from the United States, under existing laws, a bounty of $lOO, and no more; and any such soldier enlisted for not less than three years, who has been honor ably discharged on account of wounds received in the line of duty, and the widow, minor children, or parents in the order named, of any such souldier who died in the service of the United States, or of disease or wounds contracted while in the service, and in the line of duty, shall be paid the additional bounty of $lOO hereby authorized. A CROY OF HAWKS.-Mr. Jacob C. Seitz, of Manor township, this county, one mile South of Mountvllle, had shot seven chicken hawks up to the 12th inst. On Thursday, 12th inst., he shot four. On Friday, 13th inst., twelve. On Saturday, 14th inst., five ; and since then seven more, making in all thirty-five. This beats all the hawk slaugh tering we ever heard of, and certainly the lovers of Easter eggs and "spring chickens" have cause to be thankful to Mr. S. for ex terminating this monstrous number of "thieves.—Columbia Spy. LOCAL SIIIEWARL—It is stated that the seventeen-year locusts , will i re appear in this county during thi, ensiling summer. According to Mr. G. - T. Zahm, it snowed thirty-five times during the past winter up to the 22d inst , making a depth of ;fluty, one and a half Inches. The heirs of the estate of Mrs. Jenkins, deceased, have sold the twostory brick dwelling house on the alley on , Duke street, between Orange and Chestnut streets, to Dr. John McCaUa for 87,000. The recent flood in the Susquehanna river did considerable damage, but the greatest losses were sustained by persons living in the northern part of our State ; a large amount of logs have - been carried down the stream and the islands are crowded with them. The hotel property belonging to Moses Wenger, situated on the southwest collier of North Queen and Walnut streets, has been sold to Jacob Reinhold for 39,000. , Mr. \Vm. Richardson, hotel keeper and ferryman at McCall's Ferry, and who was well known In this county, died suddenly on the 20th inst. The deceased was an ex cellent fen yman, and wilt be much missed by travellers crossing the river at that point. Ate public sale in Warwick township, on the 21st inst., a cow brought 107 cash. This is a big price. THE FIRE.—One of the cars belonging to a freight train going Eastward, caught tire this morning between six and seven o'clock. The fire most probably originated from the sparks of the locomotive. The car was the second from the engine, belonged to the Union Line, and was loaded with oak staves. The train being in motion when the fire was discovered, the car was imme diately run to the tank or water plug situ ated beside the railroad track, near the °or ner of Lemon and Water streets, and a full stream of water applied. By this means the further progress of the flames was promptly arrested. We understand that about one half the train was made up with cars loaded with coal oil, which the prompt extinguish ment of the fire luckily prevented from be-. log involved in a general connagration, which from its nature would have been of the most inflammable and destructive character. The loss occasioned by the fire is not of a material character. The Wash ington Fire Engine was, on account of its nearness to the scene of action, promptly on hand and ready for service, but the water from the plug was sufficient for all purposes. The other companies were also in attendfince, ready for active operations if !heir services should be needed. IMPORTANT RAILROAD CONNECTIONS.- A new railroad will be finished during the present year, which will connect the eastern terminus of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Central Railroad, which passes through Oxford near the South-Eastern portion of our county, with the Phila., Wil mington and Baltimore Railroad at Chester in Delaware county on the Delaware river. The Philadelphia and Baltimore Central railroad, is now nearly zompleted as far as the Susquehanna river, where, by means of the Columbia and Port Deposit Railroad now being constructed, a connection will be opened from Columbia to Chester and the water transportation of the Delaware river. An outlet will also be formed east and west, both for the Phila. and Bait , Central and the Philadelphia. ? Wilmington and Baltimore roads, by the completion of the Columbia and Port Deposit and the Ches ter Creek railways. THE WHEAT Cam—From what Infor mation we can obtain, the prospect is that the next crop of wheat In this county will be a very good one. Farmers from differ ent townships of the county mostly agreo in stating that, from present appearances, the past winter has been rather tavorable than otherwise to the protection and growth of the young wheat; the large amount of snow that fell and which remained for a long time on the ground, having been the means of preventing the wheat from freezing out and from being destroyed by the extreme cold. This is welcome news for all since good wheat crops insure plenty of money for business purposes, and sun:talent suste nance for the dependent denizens of crowded cities. DANOEROUS PROPERTIES Or BENZINE,- - An exchange paper says that but few per sons realize the explosive character, or the dangers attending the careless handling of benzine. Being one of the most volatile and inflammable products resulting front the distillation of petroleum, It vaporizeswith great rapidity, so that the contents of a four ounce vial, If overturned, would render the air of a moderate sized room highly explo sive. The greatest care should be exercised In handling this substance in proximity to fire, and it is important to remember that the vapor escaping from an uncorked bottle will cause a name to leap over a space of several feet. As benzine has become al most a household indispensible, on account of the facility with which it removes grease spots from fabrics, the above statement re garding its inflammable character is well worth the consideration of all persons who make use of it. A USEFUL A. ItTICLE.—While a pssing through Centre Square yesterday we noticed a large crowd collected around a heavily loaded six mule team; it appeared that ono of the finch pins had been broken, or come out, and the wheel having slipped off the end of the axle-tree had fallen to the ground. After various efforts had been made to raise the axle without success, some ono suggest ed that one of Landis' Patent Screw Jacks be procured, this having been done, the wagon was raised with the most surprising ease. The public are not generally aware of the existence of this extraordinary lifting . jack, although patented by one of our own farmers; those who wish to procure a ma chine of this character would do well to ex amine this one before making a purchase. TAME EAOLES.—Thc popular belief is that the young eagle is not suseeptable of being tamed, and that like the tiger of the jungle it always retains its natural wild and savage disposition. This is not the case, the eagle when captured young is capable of being made quite tape and friendly. Mr. Felix Sweigart, vvlib resides at Pima Eddy, on the Susquehanna river, in this county, informs us that he has, on several occasions, obtained young eagles by taking them from the nest of the parent birds and that they become quite domestic in their habits; so much so that when his boys were fishing in the river, the young eagle visited their boat to obtain fish and would permit itself to be caressed by those who fed it. These tame young eagles roosted on a tree or in the wagon shed near the house; but Mr. S. says that in every instance, when they attained their full size and maturity, they would fly away to join their kindred in the full en joyment of their native freedom, and never again returned to their early home. To MAoiSTRATES.—Those persons who were elected justices of the peace, at the late Spring elections should recollect that they must notify the Prothonotary of the county of their acceptance of such positions within twenty days after the election. In. view of this fact, they will appreciate the impor tance of attending to the matter at once. PLANTING TREES —The following inter esting article on the importance of planting trees in the spring we insert for the benefit of our readers: The season for transplanting fruit and other ornamental trees is again near ut hand. There are few, if any persons, own ing houses and lots or farms, whose com fort will not be promoted, and the appear ance and value of their propertylmproved, by the judicious planting of fruit, shade and ornamental trees. Of the desirableness of an abundant supply of tine fruit ft is un necessary to speak. Let all, who have not already an abundantsupply, go to the near est nursery without delay, and select and plant the best varieties that can be had ; it always pays to get the best. Don't be too saving and say I will get the grafts ana raise the trees myself; unless you have old trees on which to graft, this is the worst kind of economy ; you can buy three or four year old trees from the nursery for a very little more than it would cost you to graft them, and you gain four or five years, and as many crops of fruit. A word for shade and ornamental trees. We admire the com bining of beauty with utility whorever it can be done, but don't believe In sacrificing everything to utility. We believe in making our homes attrac tive, whether in town or country, and in no way can it be done more cheaply or perma nently than by planting a judicious selec tion of shade and ornamental trees and shrubbery. Once planted and growing, they last for a generation and increase in beauty with the passing years: We pity the man who, from a false economy or through neglect, permits his home to stand exposed to the fierce blasts of winter and the broiling sun of summer, without an ef fort to beautify or protect it; nor do we wonder that his children are glad to leave it, and seek more genial and attractive homes among strangers. Make the old home attractive without with fruit and shade trees and ornamental shrubs, vines and flowers, and within with books, papers and pictures, warm hearts, kind words and smiling faces, and however wide your children wander, they will oft find their way back to their childhood's home, and its memory, a thing of beauty, will be ajoy forever, and enshrined in their-hearts, will be cherished while life lasts. NEW PATENT.—Levi Herr, of WestLam peter toxiiihip, has received letters patent for treflm proved trace fastener, dated March 24th, 1888. This is a simple and efficient device for readily attaching and detaching the traces to vehicles,-and, by its use, much time will be Paved, as well as the wear and tear of the traces. Obtained 'through the l ency of Tacob Stauffer, of this city. • RAFTING.—The Harrisburg State Guard of this morning, states that quite a large number of rafts passed down the river yes terday on their way to a market. The river ust now is in fine condition for their pas sage. WILD PIGEONS—A number of wild pige ons have recently passed over the Western portion of our county, creating quite an excitement among sportsmen. But as the pigeon is a bird of very rapid flight, it is not probable that many of them were slain, or taken prisoners. APPOINTED.--Dr. F. F. Frantz, of Wa bank, Lancastentwp., tl4 connty t has been appointed one of the reEiffent physicians of Centre Charity Hospital, Philadelphia. Dr. Frantz was a student of the Jefferson Medical College during the past winter, and is well qualified to discharge with skill and energy the duties of his new pc* sition.
