This mornings train. South, took a large
number of our citizens to Franklin, as wit
nesses and spectators to the trial of Gni
Rheil.
The screen behind which David Tatestood
when be was shot, and through which the
fatal ball passed, was taken lo Franklin
this noon to offer in evidence where tbo
trial is In progress.
Last night i he engine bouse and rig on
lease 56, Pierson Farm, was burned to the

Ras, and entails loss of from two to three
hundred dollars to G. J, Cro, owner of (bo
well.
About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
boiler of the Funk Well, near Titu.ville,
exploded smashing tho engine bouse into
splinters, and greatly injuring the engineer,
named Jessie Hays. The came of the
explosion is not known.
Hiss Foresee, who. has sued Gen Butler
for the recovery of Gen. Twiggs's swoids,
Is a niece of Gen. Twiggs, and that the
story told by Mr. Parton in his "New Or

assertion made at that time that Miss Flor
ence was the mistress of Gen. Twiggs, Is
without foundation.
We notice that it is annnonnced income
of the New York papers that the newspap
ers in Pennsylvania aro advocating the ex
elusion of the Bible from tho Common
Schools. Under our laws the Bible may
bo used or excluded at the option of. the
teachers or School Boards, and in many of
the Schools it has been used for years.
They have a way in New York for al
tnust everything. Awhile ago Horace G rep
ly's watob was stolen. An attorney, whose
practice made Mm familiar with the thiev
ing fraternity, gave general notice tbut the
watch must be returned and it was. A
f(cw days ago Mr Hastings, of the Cotimicr
oiai Advertiser, was relieved of bis wafch.
The Sun advised the thief to ro'nrn it, as it
was a much prized gift from Thurlow. Weed.
The thief took tho advice and sent back the
watoh with a cbaraoleristlo note, express
log bis "regret, not nolo the man 'was a
editur."
The subsidy business will bo up in Wash

or bonds, and 250,000,000 acres ut Govern

ing for abeut two-lbirds of ftiese sums, and
those known to be in preparation will bring
them fully up to (he figures named. The
highest order of legal talent has been engag

There is now lying in the jail of this city
Ban named Joseph Messnor, under sen
tence of death. Unless the Stale Executivo
should interpose by reprieve or communica
tion, on the 10th day or December be will
be executed. This condemned man is verg
ing upon sixty years of age. and is already
far advanced upon the road from life's prime
to the grnve. Ho will be missed and mourn
ed as little 'as any man in the city whtn
dead, because be is as little known as any.
Messnrr is to be executed not because be
Is clearly guilty of murder not because
public so regard It not because the public
eafoty demands his life not even because
the moral inlliienco of the gallows must
be maintained. It is because brs counsel
were too confident in there ability to pro
cure his acquittal- because the jury did not
understand the full (orator the verdict they
were to leturn because, technically he
stands proven guilty of murder, and there
Is no legal opening by which be can be re
leased. Full assortment of Diaries for 1870, just

Last evening a young man from Mead
vlllo, came to this place in seaioh or a
b.otbcr, whom he learned was seriously ill
here. It seems that.tbe brother had been
on tho creek for some months.and had led
a wild and dissipated lifo during that time.
After some search tho young man
was found up town In a ploce of ill-repute,
in the lost stages nf a leatbsnme and
nameless disease. Tho yonng man, who
hod como to look after blm, took him away
to-day to his home, This boy 'was a few
years ago a steadr, virtuous young man,
out railing in with evil companions bo
rapidly fell iulo Uad habits, and is now u
mere reck of humanity with epparaiitly but
a saort tune to live. Ho was a sa l sight
to look upon, emaciuterl and wasted uway
to almost a living corpse, a victim of dissi
pation and licentious passions. To look nt
him was a regret that man could so degrade
himself. .
