by the respective companies, :of which
there are a large number running ears
through different streets in Philadel

as her manumission papers show, on the
30th of May, 1016, at which time, as ap
pears from the same papers, she was
fifty-two years of age. She is therefore,
perhaps, the oldest person in York
County, and one of the oldest In thedtate.
Yet notwithstanding this extreme old
age, she is a hearty woman, never uses
glasses, and, attends to her domestic du
ties as well as a woman of one-half that
age could be expected to do.

dress, red merino quilted skirt, a light
gray cloth circular or mantle, black vel
vet hat with green veil, and a new pair
of boots. She had in her pocket a lace
handkerchief, in which was wrapped a
small sum of money. The same paper
announces that on l'riday evening Mrs.

Rosexa Luxury of the-ancients
To enjoy, the scent of roses, at meals,
an abundance of roses were shaken on
the table, so that: the dishes were corn
pletely surrounded. By an artificial
contrivance, roses, during meals, de
scended on the guests from above. Hel
iogabalus, in his folly, caused roses to be
showered down upon his guests In such
quantitlesthat a number of them, beim g
unable fto - -.M.rtricate themselves, we
iffocated in flowers. During a
times, they reclined on cushions stuffed
wlth.rose leaves, or made a couch of
leaves themselves. The floor, too, was
strewn with roses, and in this custom
greftt ItixUrywas displayed. Cleopatra,
don enormus expense, procured roses
for a feast which she gave to Anthony,
'had them laid two cubits thick on the
floor °lithe banquet room, and then
caused nets to be spread over the flowers
in order to render the looting elastic.
Heliogabalus caused not hnly the ban

Historical Sketch of the New /ormolus
Chum* is Limonite&
As a brief preliminary to the history of
the New Jerusalem Church in Lancaster
,
popularly called " Swedenborgian," it
may be allowable to say something in
reference to its primal origin in diamond.
Thomas Hartly was cotemporary. with
Swedenborg himself, and was perhaps the
first "receiver" ofhia doctrines in England.
He died in the year 1784.
The first organization of the New Church
Into an external body of Christians dates
back to the year 1780. Robert Hindmarsh,
the son ofa Methodist Minister, was the
first ordained Minister of the Church in
England. The first chapel for New Church
worship was dedicated in London, on the
27th of Jannary , l7BB. The first New Church
Conference was • held in 1789, of which
Hindmarah was the leading spirit.
The first introduction of the writings of
the New Church, into this country was by
James Glenn of England, in 1784, and the
first reedy er of the doctrines of Swedenborg,
is supposed to have been Francis Bailey, a
printer of Philadelphia, who was also the
first publisher of the works on this conti
nent. The first General Convention of New
Church men took place at Philadelphia on
the 15th of May 1817. The first society was
formed in Baltimore, about the beginning
of the present century, and the first ordain
ed Minister was John Hargrove
o
who had
E v i no h nsl ur 3 e r h been a Minister of t heMeth
The Intellectual Repogitory was establish
ed in England in 1812. It is a monthly
periodical devoted to the diffusion of the
doctrines and philosophies of Swedenborg,
and is still continued. The first New Church
periodical in this country was established
at New York in 1812. It was called the
Halcyon Summary, and was published by
Samuel Woodworth, the Author of "The
Old Oaken Bucket that hangs in the Well."
The present periodicals of the New Church
in this country are the New Jerusalem
Messenger, a quarto weekly, published in
Now York, established in 1852 New Jeru
salem Magazine, octavo monthly, Boston,
established in 1838 ,• New Church Monthly,
an octavo, Philadelphia, in 1867 ; New
Church Independent, a quarto, Laporte, In.,
In 1852; Children's New Church Magazine,
a 12 mo., New York, in 1841 ; The Olive
Leaf, a weekly, Waltham, Mass., in 1868 ;
Bole der Nouen Kirche, a German semi
monthly, in Baltimore, about 1855, and the
Little Messenger, a Sunday School quarto,
established in Philadelphia in 1868.
On page 460 of Mombert's history of Lan
caster county it is stated, on the authority
of a paragraph in Rupp's history, that Lan
caster has not been without ono or more
new churchmen residing in it since 1765.
This is doubtless an error, it should have
been 1785, if not 1795, for it was about this
latter period that Henry Von Buelow, a
German nobleman and a native of Prussia,
visited America and spent some time in
Lancaster. About the same period Wil
liam Reichenbach, a native of Saxony, and
a man of classical attainments, left his na
tive country, and on his arrival in Lancas
ter was appointed Professor of Mathematics
and German Literature in Franklin Col
lege. Von Buelow had previously em
braced the doctrines of Swedenborg, and
with a view to their dissemination had
brought with him a number of works con
taining them for gratuitous distribution
and for sale. Through the teaching of Von
Buelow, Reichenbach became ah earnest
and intelligent receiver and avowed the
doctrines openly. It was also stated, on
page 461 of the aforesaid histor3r, that Reich
enbach was the author of a duodecimo work
published in 1812 entitled A gathon ; but
this also seems to be incorrect. The writer
of this article has been credibly informed
that Baron Von Buelow was the author of
Agathon, and that Reichenbach was the
translator into the English, and perhaps
also into the German from the original
Latin. Joseph Ehronfried was the printer.
Von Buelow afterwards returned to
Europe, but from his efforts a small band
of "receivers" met to discuss and mutually
instruct each other about the year 1788 or
1789. Reichenbach, however, wrote and
published some works of his own, or at
least had them in manuscript, but it is sup
posed they have become extinct. In addi
tion to the foregoing Frederic Daurnish, a
Saxon teacher of music, and the intimate
friend of Buelow, Jacob Carpenter and a
Mr. Eckstein also became receivers. Sub
sequently were added John Funk, Henry
Bear, Hetty Barton and others whose names
appear in the body of this article. This was
all prior to the formation of the present
Lancaster New Jerusalem Society.
The Lancaster Society of the Nev Jeru
salem was instituted on the 14th day of
February 111:I6, and its first officers were :
Wm. Girling, Leader; Joseph lihrenfried,
Secretary; henry Ketrer, Treasurer; Wil-
lium Git'ling,Librarian ; with Ecclesiastical
and Secular committees, including, in ad
dition to the foregoing, the names of L. C.
Jungerich and Henry Pinkerton, Sr. It
met on Sunday afternoons for worship at
the houses of the members in Lancaster
city, until December the I Ith, ISM; when,
having built a Temple and School-room in
East Vine Street, worship was held therein
at the usual hour, on Sunday morning;
William Girling, who had previously been
a minister of the Methodist Church, officiat
ing as leader of the services; and the Socie
ty has continued to do so, with but a few
temporary interruptions, down to the pres
ent time. The Sunday School was estab-
has been continued until the present time.
Mr.:6 irling was the first Superintendent of
the Sunday School, and after his death,
which occurred some time in 1837, Henry
Keifer was appointed Leader and Superin
tendent, L. C. Jnngericb, Secretary. The
first quarterly meeting was held in the
German Lutheran Church in Strasburg on
the 17th of April, 1830, and the Rev. M. M.
Roche was the first ordained new Church
minister who preached to the Society, and
administered the ordinances of the Lord's
Supper and Baptism, the Services being
hold in what was then known as St. John's
Church, April 18, 1836. On the Ist of Octo
ber, 1839, Rev. Isaac C. Worrel removed
from Frankford, Pa., to Lancaster and be
clune the Pastor of the Lancaster Society,
but resigned his charge and left the city
on the Ist of April, 1640. The Lot on which
the Temple stands was donated to the
Society by Mr. Henry Heifer, and to build
the Temple Henry Heifer, Henry Carpen
ter and L. C. Jungerich each advanced
three hundred dollars, and Joseph Ehren
fried and F. J. Kramph each fifty dollars,
all of which claims they subsequently re
linquished to the Society, under a release,
dated July 25, 1840. On the same date
Henry Pinkerton, Sr., was appointed
Leader, L. C. Jungerich,Superintendent
the Sunday School, and Jos. Ehrenfried,
Secretary. Mr. a however soon thereafter
resigning, Jos. C. Boardman, a Teacher in
one of the Public Schools, was elected Sec
retary. Henry Keifer died October 16,1841.
The Lancaster Society obtained a Charter
from the Court, on the .25th of June, 1841,
and became a body corporate in law, un
der the title of the First New Jerusalem
Society of Lancaster. Mr. Boardman re
moving from Lancaster, Joseph Ehren
fried was again elected Secretary, July 2d,
1841. Wm. H. BenadeJ who had previ
ously been a Minister of the Moravian
Church, was elected Leader April 15, 1845.
Removing to Philadelphia, Henry Pinker
ton, Sr., was again elected Leader, Janu
ary 6th, 1846.
Joshua 0. Colburn, a teacher in the High
School, and a Licentiate in the ministry of
the New Church, was appointed Leader
February 11850. Mr. Colburn leaving
HenryH
Lancaster, Pinkerton was again
elected on the 7th day of January, 1854;
and S. S. Rathvon as alternate leader, and
also as Secretary, on the 21st of March,lBss.
The constitution having been revised, and
provision made for a President, Joseph
Ehrenfried was elected to that office, and
continued to fill it until his death, which
occurred March 6, 1862. David Pancoast
was elected President, April 2, 1862, and
continued in that office until his death, on
the 27th of August, 1865. Rev. Wm. 11.
Boned° was appointed alternate Pastor,
March 21, 1855, performing the ordinances
of the Church quarterly. S. S. Rathvon
was appointed Leader on the same date,
and has continued to act in that capacity
from that period to the present time, ex
cept when the Society had the services of a
regular Pastor, and about the same period
he was also elected Superintendent of the
Sunday School. Rev. N. C. Burnham was
appointed Pastor July 12,
1866, but having
accepted the appointment of Missionary in
the service of the Pennsylvania Associa
tion of the New Church, in 1869, he only
preaches -and administers the ordinances
q,uarterly. On January 22d, 1866, Samuel
rltz was elected President. In Juiy 1866;
he was succeeded by Rev. N. C. Burnham,
who is the present incumbent.
in addition to the foregoing, the Society
has had the occasional ministerial services
of a number of ordained New Church cler
gymen, among whom were Rev. Richard
DeChauns, late of Philadelphia; Rev. Jas.
P. Stewart, of St. Louis; Rev. J. R. Hib
bard, of Chicago; Rev. T. P. Rodman, of
Philadelphia; Rev. Arthur O. Briekman,
of Baltimore; Rev. Samuel Warren, of
England; Rev. S. F. Dike, of Bath, Me.;
Rev. E. A. Beaman, of Cincinnati, Ohio;
Rev. James Reed, of Boston ; Rev. Adolph
Bartels, of Iowa; Rev. Louis Carrier, of
Mo.; and in its earlier history, of the late
Dr. Edwin Atlee. All this has transpired
and is on record, and yet many of the citi
zens of Lancaster county are ignorant of
the existence of the No=w Ctioncrt.

DRUMORE Towasnir.—A correspondent
of the Oxford Press furnishes that paper
with the following description of Drumorg
twp., this county:
Drumore township is situated on the
western side of the county,some eight miles
being washed by the waters of the Susque
hanna. Fishing ant} Conowingo creeks are
next in importance ; they take their rise in
the north part of the township and flow
south into the Susquehanna neither of
which aro navigable, but afford ample
water power for a number of merchant and
saw milli erected at many points in their
course. Fishing creek cannot be sur
passed a: a water power, for a stream of
its length; it has many unimproved sites
along its course. It enters the river above
Peach Bottom. The scenery in this vicin
ity is rarely surpassed in beauty and gran
deur. With a single glance the eye takes In
the mystic river with its numerous islands,
its bold and rock-clad bluffs, which tower
like hugh walls until they suddenly flatten
down on the head waters of the Chesapeake
Bay. The landscape on the cast or west of
this is one of great beauty. One is remind
ed of scenes on the Iludson many of which,
it fully equals. Hero the current is very
rapid and as the bed of the river is mainly
composed of rock, naturally produces many
eddies, swirls and maelstroms in miniature,
which keep up a succession of sounds near
ly equal to the famous Laderc, whilst the
constant roaring of C nine's falls are heard for
miles up and down the river. Situated
about half a mile from this is Murphy's loop,
being a tract of land almost surrounded by
Fishing creek. Tradition says that many
years ago one Murphy entered into this
wilderness for the purpose of hunting, but
from that day to the present no trace of him
has been found, hence the name of Murphy's
loop.
There have been some:very fine buildings
erected iu this township during the last
year, and several commenced to be finished
during this. Among the former are the
dwelling houses of Messrs. Ewing, Ernhart
and Brown, of the latter Messrs. Cutler and
Clark. In addition to these are two large
and expensive Halls, one by the order of
Free Masons,the other by the Odd Fellows.
On Conowingo, near the head waters, has
been erected a large merchant mill with
four run of burrs and all the modern im
provements in machinery are here intro
duced, driven by a large turbine wheel—
altogether it is one of the best arranged
merchant mills in the county.
FULTON TOWNSHIP.—A correspondent
of the Oxford Press sends that paper the
following description of Fulton twp.::
Fulton township, Lancaster county, is
bounded on the north by Drumore, east by
Little Britain and the Octoraro, west by the
Susquehanna and south by Cecil county,
Md. It is situated in latitude 39 degrees
north, and in longitude about 76 degrees
'Rost of Greenwich. Area, 4.'2 square miles.
The surface is undulating and somewhat
broken—the latter more especially in the
western portion, as we approach the left
bank of the river. The streams are few
and unimportant. The principal ones are
the Conowingo, rising in Providence twp.,
flowing southward, passing through Ful
ton from north to south, emptying into the
Susquehanna at the village of the same
name, in Maryland; and Peter's Creek,
named after an early settler, rising in Dru
more twp. and finding an outlet in the
river, near Peach Bottom.
As a natural sequence, the productions
are the same heroes found in other sections
of the same latitude. Wheat and corn are
the chief crops. The surplus of these cer
eals, with the profit arising from grazing,
aro the chief sources of revenue of a major
ity of our land proprietors.
The territory now included in Fulton con
stituted, until the year 1844-5, the western
portion of Little Britain. In that year Little
Britain was divided, and at the suggestion
of a citizen, now no more, the now district
was named Fulton, in honor of the cele
brated American inventor whose birth
place is generally supposed to be within its
limits.
In 1569 there were 23.5 freeholders, 129
tenants, 95 single men and about twice - as
many single women. The number of chil
dren in the public schools, 475. ller citi
zens pay this year (1869) a county tax of
$1,684.46, a State tax of $417.26, and militia
tines amounting to $104.50. There are nine
schools in the township, and for their sup
port they are required to pay a tax of over
$3,000. . .
Fulton contains eight churches, viz: one
Methodist, one Presbyterian, two Friends],
one Baptist, one Welsh and two colored
Methodists. '
There aro nine grist mills (the walls of
one erected prior to the Revolutionary war),
six saw mills, two cabinet maker,
three
wheelwright and six blacksmith shops.
There are five hotels, and six post offices,
two of the latter—doshen and Pleasant
Grove—were established more than thirty
years ago.
The principal villages are Goshen ' Bethel,
Wakefield, New Texas and Peach Bottom.
If we except the "dirt roads" which
positive necessity requires in every civil
ized community, there aro no public im
provements in Fulton township. Much
has been said, and some money has been
spent within the last decade,
but so far, her
citizens have none of the advantages of
either railroad, canal or turnpike.
PEQUEA ITEMS.-A correspondent at
Pequea sends us the following items of in
terest:
An accident of rather a serious nature
occurred at White Horse Mill on Tuesday,
the 2d inst. Mr. Jos. P. Cooper (miller), m
the employ of Samuel C. Handwork, of this
place, while hoisting flour from the lower
to the second floor of the mill, fell through
the hatchway with a barrel of flour, and
was picked up insensible, in which state he
remained some twelve hours. -When last
heard from some hopes were entertained of
his recovery.
Sickness is prevailing to an alarming ex
tent, at the present time, in this section.
Mr. Robert Howe, of Salisbury twp., died
!alit week, he havingarrived at the goodpld
age ofB2, and moat likely ,has stood, more
hardship than any man in our township.
For about 50 years, or radii within the last
6 or 8 years. he used to drink ft quart of
liquor each day, and was . but seldom' seen -
in
•
in a state of intoxication , for 10 years past
he has lived 135 himself, havingno one near
him.
The extension of the Delaware City - and
Pomeroy Railroad is much spoken of at
the preSenttime,andnumerousandlefigthy
petitions are daily being put ibrward in its
behalf. Our hope is that the guru/will be
taken at an early day.
_ feneral of our fatefel
low when, parfait McEvoy, took place on
FridstY, and presented a very Imposing etp
=ce. !rho :be:RAMS leaver mounted
~
of Zecher-Bros., which , bore the re
mains, was preceded by several
containing Abe Reverend Clergy and
bearers, and folloWed by a very large fu
neral cortege of carriages containing the
friends and relatives of the deceased. The
procession paved from his late residence
on the Harrisburg Pike, to St. Mary's
Church. The remains were borne into the
Church by the following pall bearers:—
Col. William B. Fordney, Michael Barry,
Sr., Michael Malone, William• CarPonteri
Esq. George L. Boyle," John McGovern,
Michael Riley and William Sales. Solemn
High Maas was then celebrated by Rev
erend Thomas J. Reilly, pastor of the
Church, assisted by the Revs. Richard
Barry of Harrisburg, as Deacon,- James J.
Russell, of Columbia, as Sub-Deacon, and
Thos. Marren, of the Diocese of Philadel
phia, as Master of Ceremonies. At the
Offertory the hymn " Few Jeau" was im
pressively rendered by the choir. At the
conclusion of the Mass, Rev. Pierce Maher,
of Norristown, preached an eloquent funer
al sermon, recounting the many virtues
and charities for which the deceased was
eminent; after which the Very Rev. Ber
nard Keenan performed the ceremony of
the absolution of the body. The venerable
father, who for nearly half a century has
ministered to the spiritual wants of his
parishioners, still retains that vigor of in
tellect that marked him in his earlier days,
and is still spared to his parishioners, num
bers of whom have, during his ministra
tion, passed away to that bourno whence
no traveler returns.
The Mllowing clergymen were also pres
ent on the altar during the ceremonies:
Rev. P. A. Stanton, 0. S. A. of Philadel
phia; Rev. Mark Crane, of Philadelphia;
Rev. Augustine J. McConomy, of Phila
delphia; Rev. James O'Reilly; Rev. John
Fitz-Maurice, of Philadelphia; Rev. Dan'!
O'Connor, of Philadelphia; Rev. Edmund
Fitz Maurice, of Drumore, Pa. ; Rev. Fran
cis BastOble, of Harrisburg; Rev. Francis
Neufeld, of St. Joseph's, this city; Rev.
Eugene Phelan, 0. S. 11., of St. Mary's,
Elk county; Rev. John McGovern, of the
Diocese of Philadelphia.
The corpse was then conveyed to St.
Mary's Catholic Cemetery, where appro
priate ceremonies were bad and then de
posited in its final resting place in the
family vault.
The burial casket used was of cast iron,
with heavy ornamental mouldings. It was
painted and grained to represent rosewood.
On each side and each end of it are silver
plated rods, secured by silver-plated brack
ets, for lifting or carrying the casket in
stead of the ordinary handles, The lid was
of plate-glass, which permitted of the body
being seen without removing it. Before
the body was interred, this plate-glass lid
was covered with three metallic panels, the
tipper one containing a silver-plated wreath;
the centre ono a heavy silver-plated cross,
and the lower one a silver-plated torch.—
At the top of the centre panel of the lid was
a silver plate, engraved with the name of
the deceased. PATRICK McEvoy. The bot
tom of the same panel contained the words
Bony 1805: DIED 1870. The moulding sur
rounding the lid was also elaborately orna
mented with silver-plated flowers.; The
inside of the casket was cushioned, and
lined with white stamped satin, edged
with a heavy white silk fringe. Altogether,
the casket is by far the most beautiful ever
seen in Lancaster.
THE MAIDEN Winow.—A Sequel to the
Family Doom ; or, Tho Sin of a Countess,
is the name of Mrs. Emma D. E. N. South
worth's new novel, now in press, and to be
published in a few days by T. B. Peterson
& Brothers, Philadelphia. It will command
a very large sale, as it is one of Mrs. South
worth's most powerfully written efforts,
exciting and sensational, and is fully equal,'
if not superior to "The Family Doom,"
"The Changed Brides," "The Bride's Fate,"
"Fair Play," and "How He Won Her,"
which have proved to be five of the best
novels ever published, and which are •hav
ing unprecedented sales, for Mrs. South
worth, as a novelist, stands at the head of
all female writers. tier conceptions are
marked by originality, and there Is a
purity and sweetness about her language
which give a peculiar charm to her writings.
Her characters are powerfully and touch
ingly drawn, and we learn to love them
because they are more natural than affected.
"The Maiden Widow" will be issued M a
largo duodecimo volume, and sold at the
low price of $1.75 in cloth; or $1.50 in paper
cover; or copies will be sent by mail, to
any place, post paid, by the publishers, on
receipt of the price of the work in a letter
to them.
RUMORED VISIT OF PRINCE ARTHUR TO
WHEATLAND. The Philadelphia Press
published the following item in its edito
rial columns:
Letters !rum "Wheatland," near Lan
caster, Pennsylvania, where Mrs. Harriet
Lane Johnson, niece of ex-President Buch
anan, is now sojourning, state that his
Royal Highness, Prince Arthur, will visit
that lady within a few days, and that fit
ting arrangements aro making for his re
ception. When Miss Lane was at tho head
of her uncle's establishment, while he was
American Minister in London, the Prince
was not much more than a baby. This was
in 1854, 18tH, and part of 11156; but she was
well esteemed by Victoria, who has no
doubt commissioned her son to pay the
niece of ox-President Buchanan a friendly
visit. The portrait of Albert Edward,
Prince of Wales, presented to Mr. B. by
the heir apparent, is now the property of
Mt. Lane Johnson.
nquiry fails to satisfy us of the correct
•ness of the above rumor. The mansion at
Wheatland has been undergoing repairs
lately, but, so far as we can learn, without
any reference to a visit from English roy
alty. Mrs. Johnson resides in Baltimore,
except during tin:summer season, and were
she going to entertain Prince Arthur she
would be most likely to receive him at her
mansion in that city.
LOCAL ITEMS.—Mrs. Lydia Myers, of this
city, while riding in a passenger railway
car in Philadelphia, on Tuesday evening of
last week, was robbed of her pocket book
which contained all of her money.
A young married man named Reuben
Kipp, eloped a short time ago with his

It is stated that emissaries of Brigham

PURCIIASE OF LEAF TOBACCO.—In reply
to the frequent inquiries made by the rev
enue officers and others, Commissioner
Delano has decided that every person en
gaged in the business of purchasing leaf
tobacco, which they consign to commission
houses, agents, or other persons, to be sold
on their account, are liable to pay the spe
cial tax of twenty-five dollars, as dealers in
leaf tobacco under the provision of the fifty
ninth section of act of July 20, 1868; and
also, that this liability is incurred, notwith
standing the sales are made through the
agency of persons or firms who have them
selves paid special tax, as dealers in leaf
tobacco. The same principle is held to ap
ply to persons selling
. distilled spirits
through commission houses, or otheraten
cies. The sale made by the-sgent is deem
ed and held to be the principal's sale,. and
he is required to pay a special tax therefore
as "Liquor Dealer.'

Before the negroes were shot by the lynch-
era they confessed:. the: deed; aiair.furthitz
stated that, disguised as Ku-Ries; they
bad beaten an Old man named Bryant to
death, attempte d to ravish the daughter
of is Mr. Mc murdered a young man
named Hurt, an committed.reany, other
outrages, including robbery and Incendi
edam, in the same county. The following
account of the affair is from the Nashville
Union and American, Jan. 28th :
We have several accounts and quite fail
waculars of the, taking out of jail and
/6:: . = of the five negroes in Huirtingdon,
cmintyjon last Tnesdaynight. The
immediate cause of the drama of blood was
the kill ng of Coleman on the Saturday
night previous. From the information re
owed we give the following, which Is, no
doubt, substantially correct.
After killing Coleman, the negroes went
to a neighbor and burned his fodder stacks
and attempted to burn his house. A young
man,illred into them and run them off and
got their horses. The horses were taken to
Huntingdon. This.alarmed the Murderers,
and a negro named Mat Brown went to an
other old negro and told him if the inquiry
was made he (an old Fayette negro,) must
swear that Mat staid with him the night of
the killing of Coleman. The old negro told
this to the authorities, whereupon Mat was
arrested. After his arrest, and being told
what could be proved on him by Fayette,
he confessed that ho was there, and told the
names of the others present, one of whom
was named Allen Robinson. They were
then arrested, five in all. They confessed
to the killing of Coleman, and also confess
ed going some time ago to an old man Bry
ant's and whipping him so severely that he
died.
They also went to a Mr. McLain's, pulled
his daughter out of bed, and treated them
cruelly, attempting to rape her—always in
They say they know nothing of the ex
press robberies which hare been committed
there.
They were put in prison, after an exam
ination before a magistrate, and guards
were placed around the jail.
About half-past nine o'clock the firing
began—supposed to be by the guards on
persons advancing. Twelve or fifteen shots
were fired in rapid succession. Then a
volley of fifty guns, and then an order to
charge. Then there was silence for half an
hour. The next heard was, "Into line,"
the voices being those of young men. From
fifty to seventy-five shots were then heard
all at once at the word of command.
Fifteen or twenty more shots were then
fired at irregular intervals, and then the
party was off. It was ascertained that one
of the negroes was missing, who about
twelve o'clock, returned, and, being dis
covered, was shot and killed. The negro
Brown, who was wounded in the thigh and
had his ankle broken in the first shooting,
was also finally killed. The party of men,
unknown but undisguised, went to the jail
in the quiet hours of the night, and over
came the guards and forced the . jall. They
they then took the negroes, five in number,
from the custody of the jailer, and taking
them a short distance from the town of
Huntingdon, shot them dead, the body of
each being riddled with bullets. As the
doom of the negroes was made known,
they freely and fully confessed to the mur
der of Col. Coleman on last Saturday night.
Col. Coleman was an old and estimable
citizen, and the atrocity of his murder had
exasperated the citizens to the highest pitch
of excitement. They not only confessedto
the murder of .Coleman, but they confessed
to being the same party who in disguise
murdered young Idr. Hurt some weeks
since. They also confessed that, disguised
LIB "Ku-Klux," they had committed many
other aggravated offences, involving terror
and the loss of property in the same locali
ty, such as stealing, pillaging, burning and
plundering, etc. Under a knowledge of
these facts the feelings of the people were
intensified to exasperation by the murder
of Mr. Coleman. and the community called
loudly for vengence. Without presuming
to endorse or condemn this summary
method of punishment for crimes so atro
cious and fiendish, from what we can learn
the verdict of public opinion exculpates tho
parties from blame in the premises.
A Great Battle in Caba--The Instirgenla
Vietortotut.
NU EITITS,S Jan. 26, 1870.
The campaign under the Dominican Gen
eral Puello, inaugurated with so great a
flourish of trumpets and proclamations,
and which was to restore the Camagacy to
obedience to the Spanish government, has
come to a disastrous conclusion, and the
forces of that officer which remain have re
turned here broken and dispirited after
suffering a terrible defeat from an enemy
they affected so much to despise. The
column arrived at Raga, on the opposite
side of the bay on the 22d, and on the 23d
reached here. It is hard to conceive so great a
change in men in so short a time. They
had gone out well armed, clothed and equip
ped ; they return weary, covered with filth
and presenting such an air as is only seen
in the defeated soldier. The severely
wounded were brought across the bay in
launches, twelve of these being tilled with
them, while many others but slightly in
jured accompanied the column by land.
XAs stated in my letter of that date, the
column of General Puello left here on the
'_ssth of December, moving in the direction
of Guaimaro. It numbered front 2,500 to
3,000 men of all arms, and was accompanied
by twenty-thee mounted cavalry volunteers
from Puerto Principe, thoroughly acquaint
ed with the country, to act as guides. From
the day of their setting out to their return
the forces were under an almost incessant
fire, a greater portion of the time unseen,
and which for this reason had a very de
moralizing effect on the men. On the Ist
of January (as say the Spaniards, when be
tween Palo Quemado and Guaimaro) they
came upon a fortified position of the insur
gents, strong by nature and strengthened
by all the resources of military art. From
the accounts it scents that the locale of this
position was made known to Puello by a
negro who presented Iffinselfand the Spanish
°thous frankly admit that had not this
knowledge been obtained they would all
have been killed or captured. They attacked
the position,from behind which the Cubans
poured a tire of musketry and artillery,
which caused dreadful havoc among the
troops,killing and wounding more than 3011
men. All of Puello's staff were dismounted
and many wounded. The General's horse
was killed and himself wounded or bruised
in the leg. Among the wounded were Col.
Arvaz, of the regiment "La Reyna," a
brave and capable officer; Colonel Marin,
of the artillery, and an officer of German
birth whose name I did not learn. The
Spaniards say they took the place, but on
the following day "fell back' to Arroyo
Hondo, where they remained fifteen days,
resting, taking care of the wounded and
otherwise recruiting from the effects of the
fight. Thence the retrograde march com
menced, necessarily the slowest, as the
wounded had to be carried with the column,
which was fired upon at every step. Posi
tions for the night had to be selected and
partially intrenched, with much time and
labor, which accounts for the length of time
taken up by the return.
The loss among the officers in killed and
wounded was very great. Of the seven
teen, in the regiment "Laßeyna" but three
escaped unhurt; the regiment "Chiclano"
lost two ; the marine regiment two, and the
cavalry one killed and one wounded.
These are reported, but there is known to
be more, the entire number being estimated
as high as thirty-six. Both officers and
soldiers aro eloquent over the hardships
which they endured and which were, no
doubt, very great. They were without salt
for their beet, and much of the time with
out vegetables. They speak in the highest
terms of the gallantry of the insurgents,
whose fighting qualities astonished ninny
who had been led to believe them a set of
arrant cowards. A colonel relates that in
a hand to hand encounter ho lost sonic of
the insignia of rank front his sleeve and all
of his overcoat. A part of a volunteer regi
ment from Puerto Principe formed part of
the column, and is said to have behaved in
a very cowardly manner, screening them
selves in every possible way from the bul
lets of the enemy. No estimate can be
made of the loss of insurgents, concerning
which the Spaniards evidently know noth
ing.--.N. Y. Herald.
More Bloody Work in Iloyti.
A dispatch from Port an Prince says that
the work of the military commission which
tried Salnave and sentenced him to death
is not yet ended. The cases of several of
his generals, and of the most prominent
and influential of his friends among the
oivilians, yet remain to be disposed of in
Port au Prince, and in most of the southern
towns.the shooting of Picquets is going on
briskly. At Jeremie a large number of
those unfortunate people have been put to
death, and at Jacmel more than forty of
them are in prison, doomed to die on an
early day. The spirit of vengeance has been
fully roused, and the victorious revolution
ists have expressed their deternlitation to
crush out the Salnave party. The Cocos
are crying out for blood, and unless more
moderate and merciful councils should pre
vail than those ruling at present, a reign of
terror may be expected in Hayti.
John Diehl, convicted of the murder
of Richard W. Harlan, was sentenced
to be hanged, at Reading, on Moaday
last. Diehl, who now gives hia name
as Zachariali4l,43nyder f says-he—had a
quarrehwith-Harlan, who drew a wea
pon and demanded his effects, and that
'he then struck Harlan with s. hatchet,
and went his way, not knowing that he
had killed the man. ' 4- ,
