FATAL OCCURRENCE. —On Tuesday, 21s'
inst., one of the most distressing occurrences we
have ever been called upon to record, took place
in Sheshequiu township. 'i' Lie facts as we have
received them from reliable persons are as follows :
—ln the forenoon of that day, Mr. JOHN KINOS-
I-AXD. a respectable farmer, residing in the upper
part of the Valley, came into his house from the
field, and commenced changing his clothes. I he
servant girl, heard some words pass betweea .Mr.
K. and bis wife, when the lattei rushed from the
room, pursued by her husband, who was evi ! nt!v
bent upon inflicting personal violence upon her.
The girl alarmed, hurried out of the house, and j
cried for assistance. Meanwhile KINOSU.YND had ]
caught his wife, knocked her down,and was stamp- j
ing upon her head with his feet, when her mother, j
an aged woman, entered the room and pushed him j
off the prostrate body. lie endeavored to re-eom
meucc* his brutal work, but the mother successful
ly resisted his efforts and he left the house.
From his house he went to WM. SNYDERS, a dis
tance of two miles, where his sou, a young man,
was at work, and after a few words, pulled out a
revolver, firing twice at him, happily without ef- :
feet.
KINGSLVND was immediately arrested, taken to j
Athens, aud after an examination, committed to !
the jail of the County to await his trial.
Mrs. KiNc.sr.Axn was terribly braised about the j
head, and lingered insensible, until Monday mom- j
ing, when death put an end to her sufferings. A
../ .. i ex '.munition disclosed the fact that her
skull was crushed in several places. She was
aged about 48 years, and leaves three children to
mourn her loss, aggravated by the unfortunate
manner of her death.
KINOSLAND is a respectable farmer, in comforta
ble circumstances, and but for occasional pnrox- i
isms of passion, a temperate and well disposed j
man. Some difficulty which had occurred in the j
family, seems to have aroused all his evil passions, j
and in a moment of ungovernable fury had led j
him to the commission of a crime too shocking to j
contemplate, and which plunges a large circle of j
relatives in the deepest allliction.

fejy* The paper on which the REPORTER
was printed lust week, and which is used l'or this
issue, was maun netured at Waverly, at the new
paper mills recently erected. It is made from rye
straw, and though not as good as paper made from j
rags, is nevertheless a very fair substitute. It is 1
sold at a lower price, than the latter, though the
extra weight of that we have used makes the cost,
per ream, a little more.
We understand the mill is very complete in its j
machinery and arrangements, aud will manufac- ;
t are about one ton of paper per day.

fet?" On Friday evening of last week, the
hall of the Towanda Lyceum was filled with a
larger audience of ladies aud gentlemen, than ever
before. Tlie speaking was good and the question
debated very interesting, although it necessarily
took a wide range. The first of a series of essays
was opened by Mr. F. W. BAUTLETT in a manner
creditable to himself and the Association. His sub
ject, " TIIF. CREATION." showed much thought and
study, and was listened to attentively, and warmly
applauded at its close. The following question not
being canvassed to the satisfaction of all was con
tinued over until Friday evening Nov. 3d, 1800
Hem ■"?, That the world is governed more by
prejudice than reason.
feiy P. 11. Josi.is, of Nichols, came to his
death on Wednesday week, by the discharge of a

whether it was an accident or premeditated.

IHF. ERIK (BROAD GUAGE) ROUTE. —We in
vite the special attention ol our readers to the nev
'■ e 1 -Lie of the Erie Railway which appears it
' '1 * F a P ! ' r . and beg to submit, for their con
ration, the following complimentary notice o
tnat line extracted from a recent number of tin
'/■iri'jo li'iilroad Gazelle:
I lie Erie Railway is among the very foremost o
the i. -t built, b-t stocked, best kept up,and bes
managed roads l this country, which is, we know
sas ing much >\ iiatevcr may the merits of th
." ijuivje railway in an economical sense, th
extra comfort it affords to passengers is obvious.
The imperceptibly acquired I'.tiguo and nervous
r stkssness induced by extended travel, is chiefly
occasioned by being cramped up and compelled to
keep in one position. All American travelers well
h'.iow this. Those likewise who have contrasted
the relative comfort of narrow and wide cars, can
appreciate th > immense advantage offered by the
broad gust in this particular.
The region of country which the Erie traverses
cannot i e excelled for beauty, and in
some places grandeur of scenery. That model and
miracl • of bridge-architecture at Portage is alone
worth a long journey to see. Your eyes feast on
the agricultural perfection ol western and interior
New York ; you are delighted with the romantic
scenery of the Upper Delaware and Susquehanna
valleys ; at frequent intervals you catch glimpses
of the unadorned beauty of the wild tributaries of
the Alleghany ; you glide swiftly through Patter
sou, Bingliamton, Owego, Ehniru, Port Jervis, and
other charming cities and towns, and are conveyed
at last to the terminus of your pleasure trip,
through the heart of the dairy regions of New York
and New Jersey. Of dining stations with abund
ant time for meals there is no lack. Y'ou stop at
rc'ulur hours lor breakfast, dinner and supper, at
the very finest wayside hotels in this or any other
country.
Not only in the solidity of its road-bed and the
uniform excellence and smoothness of its track is
the Erie Railway unsurpassed, but its rolling stock
nd . , maid sleeping cars are in keeping with its
perfect and costly appointments. There are no
haggard laces and bleared eyes after a night's ride,
but jocund spirits and the freshness of youth
abound. More thorough gentlemen can nowhere
be found than the conductors on this popular road.
As a route for families, invalids aud pleasure seek
ers it has no superior. Let "bulls' elevate or
"bears" depress Erie stock, so long as its present
good management continues, the reputation of
the "broad guage" will maintain its proud su
premacy.

Britain, without, however, increasing the subscrip

It is almost superfluous to speak of the great val

and especially to Mechanics, Manufactures, Inven
tors, Engineers, Civ mists, Agriculturists, aud all
who love to lead oi the wonde'.ous progress which
now marks every department of Mechanical Engi

ed, and many of the best Scientific writers in this
country and Eueope are contributors to its pages.
Many of the articles have the charm of romance
about them,and inspire the mind with noble ideas.
Now is the time to send in subscriptions to the
Scientific American, so as to begin with the new
volume.
The numbers l'or a year make up asp lendidly
illustrated volume of 822 pages. Terms : S3 per
annum ;>1 50 for six months $1 for four months;

THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY. —TIie last number J
of the current year, comes freighted with a valu.

best articles in which are The Fall of Austria, by '
C. C. Hazewell, a fine historical study; further
portions of Hawthorne's Note Books ; Through
Broadway, by 11. T. Tuekerman, and John Piere- 1
pont, a series of personal recollections by John
Neal, of Portland. The poetry here is li. W. Em- ,
erson's "My Garden." The Monthly is adding to ,
its original merits, and becoming more and more
such an exponent of opinion on weighty matters as
will be esteemed by the grave, while its pages of a j
lighter sort are calculated to gratify those who do •
not care for the depths.

DIED.
GUYER.—On the 11th of November, at her resi
dence at Highland, Mrs. Eliza M'Cord Guyer,
daughter of John M'Cord, Esq., and wife of E.
Guyer, in the 57th year of her age.
Mrs. GI T YER was born in Drumon township, Lan
caster County, Pa., was married in 1837, and re
moved to Bradford Couuty in 1813.
She became a member of the Baptist Church, in
Ilarrisburg, in 1832. Her Christian profession, at
all times rendered beautiful, and impressive by
the exercise ot a refined and cultivated intellect,
and her Christian efforts, safely directed by the
promptings of a discriminating judgment, made
her one of those rare characters, reminding all
who'camo to know her, of the Savior's injunction
—"Be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless
as doves." Bringing these qualities to bear iu the
various relations of wife, mother, daughter, sister,
friend, counsellor, and sympathizer, her loss will
be long and deeply felt by the many to whom her
affection and counsel had become not only a com
fort, but a necessity. Few appreciated more read
ily the wants of the human heart, iu its sorrows
and bereavements, as well as its joys, and the liv
ing can testily to the promptness and efficacy of
the re ief she was always ready to afford. What
ever duty of affection called her to do, she did ap-
I propriately, and well, and when disease and death
approached, she was ready, like one who had been
doing her Father's bidding, to lie down ealm_ and
i trusting in the strength of the God she had en
i deavored to serve. During her last illness, which
i was long and painful, her faith was not merely
; sustaining—it was triumphant. It enabled her to
await calmly the sundering of ties which bound
j her closely" and tenderly to life. Her death was
{ the peaceful close ola harmonious life—
" He giveth His beloved sleep."
