)(A. Brick. We often hear of persons hav

in (Spring township, is putting a brick in a

Sudden Death. On Saturday last a child
of Bjnjaniiu Ifjalor, near Markelville, ap
peared indisposed, and though nothing se
rious was thought to bo the matter, tlio
father concluded to call medical aid, but be
fore the physician arrived, the child fell
dead in its father's arms.
The storm of Saturday night and Sunday
was the most severe of any that has visited
this section for a long time. Many houses
and barns were injured, and trees and fences
were blown down. The snow and sleet of
Saturday niglii was followed on Sunday by
a hard rain which took away the snow rap
idly, and will be apt to raise the streams
to sucb.au extent that much damage will
be done.
"VThe Biooinfield Foundry is now being
conducted on the right principle. A full
assortment of castings aro always on hand,
at tho right price. The plows made by Mr.
Snyder, can't be beat, as probably no other
foundry in the State has as'good a moulder.
In proof of this we may stato that at tho
recent east of 100 mould boards, 150 were
perfect.
Flrc. On "Wednesday last, a dwelling
house in Carrol township, on tho place own
ed by Captain C. ltotli, of this borough, and
occupied by Win. Snieigh, was destroyed
by fire.
The occurrance took place just as the
family were sitting down to dinner, and tho
first they heard of tlm house being on lire,
was hearing the roaring of the ilames, when
they rushed out to find the entire roof in a
blaze, which fell in before any articles could
bo removed from tho upper story. There
was a small insurance on tho building in
tho Perry Mutual.

An Epidemic. The Huntington Globe
says: A disease, Roinethlng.siniilar to the
whooping cough, is prevailing among ma
ny of the children in this borough and vi
cinity, and some have died from the effects.
On Sunday a week, fivo children were lying
dead from this disease, and since then a
number more have died, and the total with
"
in three weeks may be estimated, twenty
two. 1 lie symptoms ol tlio disease arc a
cough, which brings up a greenish phlegm,
and if this is not removed, it goes back
and settles upon the lungs causing inllama
tiou, and the child at this stage seldom re
covers. One of our phpsicians informs us
that the number he has already treated for
the different forms of this disease would
reach about two hundred ; of this number
eight have died ; so that it would appear
the infection has spread with great rapidity.
A child attacked with this malignant dis
ease should be at once placed under the
care of a physician, as if left to continue
the chances for its recovery aro greatly less
ened. Dr. Sweeney removed a tumor from the
side of Mary Donovan, of Williamsport, on
last Thursday, that weighed one pound and
four ounces. It.
Fouiid Dead. The Carlisle Herald says;
f An unknown man was found, late on
Sunday evening, on tho turnpike, about
one- mile east of Mount Koek, in a dying
condition, lie had been at a house in the
neighborhood about one hour before, and
asked for some milk to drink, which was
given him. While there he stated that ho
had two daughters living in llarrisburg,
and was on bis way to visit them, and
wished to' reach Carlisle that night. His
body was brought to town on Monday
morning, and deposited in tho jail. Cor
oner Smith being notified summoned a
jury, who rendered a verdict of death from
natural causes.
yDr. Sweeney operated on tlio wife of Rev.
Mr. "Wolfe, daughter of Martin Mortin, of
this borough, for deafness, of long stand
ing. In a letter to Mr. Jesso L. Clouser,
from Mr. W., he states that her hearing is
perfectly restored and her general health
improved. It.
Jail Delivery. Tho "Bloomsburg Co
lumbian" says, on tho tiio night of tho 22d
of March two prisoners confined in tho jail
in this place, escaped. Ono of them was re
captured tho next day, but the other, James
Delaney by namo is still at largo. Tho
Sheriff will pay $20 to any ono returning
him to jail.
Xl''"'ZC Fight. Ono of these brutal exhi
bitions took place near M Kcansville,
Schuylkill count y, on Monday of last week.
After half an hour's lighting tho police ar
rived and broke up the affair. Tho princi
pals escaped arrest. Several women were
prckcnt.
Dr. Sweeney operated on tho car of Miss
Clouser, near llarrisburg, for a deafness of
fifteen years' standing hearing restored.

Special Correspondence of Tub Timus.
IlAitnisnuno, March 19, 1870.
Mr. Editor : Somewhat of a mixed busi
ness has been done by the Legislature du
ring this week, but nothing of special inter
est to any ono has occurred. Iu tho Senate
quite an exciting sceno was occasioned by a
httlo fillibustering by sonio of its members.
Some even refused to vote on a question
because of tho ruling of tho speaker on
certain question adversely to tho wishes of
some of tho members. The Jorsey Shore,
Pino Creek and Buffalo Railway Bill, it is
understood, was at tho bottom of tho trou
ble.. Tho bill was sent lo tlio governor and
returned by him on account of sonio in
formality. It is yet in the hands of tho
Senate. The Diamond-AVatt caso is not
finally disposed of yet. In tho House no
bills of general importance were passed.
Tho day for final adjournment is lixed for
April 7th, by both Houses, and considerable
lobbying during tho remaining days of tho
session may bo anticipated. Many bills of
a private character are yet back upon tho
calendar of both Houses awaiting action
and only those that havo tho iulluenco of
powerful triends can expect to succeed at
this late day. ' 1 Puil.
The Next Decision. -Wo expect the next
decision of Commissioner Delano will bo
that, "all persons playing on an instrument
where a pedal is used will bo liable to a
licenso as pedalars. It would at least bo as
reasonable and just as some decisions ho
has made.
IV Dr. Sweeney amputated
three fingers
T from the hand of a son of Mr.
Stlh Gates,
which were injured by the falling of a tree.
The right arm and limb sustained quite
a serious iiyjury. It.

HOUSK OF RKI'nKSlCNTATlIliJS,
llarrisburg, March 21, 1870.
Mr. Editor : Feeling confident that you
would not knowingly ilo any man injustice,
none especially gentleman who have been
honored by your people, in being selected to
represent them in the Legislature of the
State ; I trust you will permit mo to brief
ly reply to an article winch appeared iu
your excellent paper, of the 22nd inst., in
reference to the railroad bill, recently pass
ed here, signed " Rust ieus."
Vituperous and billingsgate the free
will of such words as "infamous," "fraud,"
"glaring," "indecent," "outrageous,"
"damn,'' "wrong," Ac, &c this mm
who dubs himself " Rustieus," should re
member, is not argument.
He commences his article with a false
hood, in giving the title of the bill, as tlio
"Jersey Shore, Pino Creek and Bulfalo
Railroad." I merely state this fact to show
how much " Rustieus" knows about what
ho writes, or if he knows how much
ho lies. Tho title of the bill is much
longer, and perhaps more " higli-sound-ing
and far-reaching," as it delines
the aims and objects of tho bill fully. In
short it provides for tho transfer or ex
change of railroad bonds now in tho Sink
ing Fund. The bonds which take the place
of those now in the Sinking Fund are to bo
amply guaranteed and three hundred thou
sand dollars interest to the State per annum,
provided for, while your correspondent
would havo your intelligent readers believe
that millions of dollars were to bo literally
stolen from the treasury, and that your rep
resentatives, Messrs. Skinner and Milliken,
and Senator Mclntire, had corruptly, or for
a consideration, assisted in tho tnefc. In
proof that the new bonds are to be guaran
teed, permit me to insert the following pro
vision in the bill :
Prodded, however, That no delivery or
exchange of bonds shall be made under the
provisions or authority ot this act by tho
commissioners of the sinking fund until a
contract for the construction and equipment
of tlio Jersey Shore, Pino Creek and Bulfa
lo Railway with responsible parties duly ex
ec itted shall bo delivered to said commis
sioners, and an absolute guarantee for the
fulfillment there of within tho time and
conditions of this act by the Catawissa and
Philidelphia and Reading railroad com
panies, or the Catawissa and Lehigh Val
ley railroad companies, or the Catawissa
and Lehigh and Susquehanna railroad com
pany, or by tho Philadelphia and Erio,
Northern Central and Pennsylvania rail
road companies, and also a guarantee in
like manner of tho payment by the Jersey
Shore, Pino Creek and Buffalo railway com
pany of three hundred thousand dollars in
terest per annum as it accrues to tho Stato
on the said bonds of the Jersey Shore, Pine
Creek and Bullalo railway company during
the construction of said lino of railway,
and until it is opened for traffic as required
by this act.
It will thus be seen that the new bonds
are to bo amply guaranteed, until tho roads
they represent are in running order, and in
this condition they are required to bo with
in three years.
Now a word in reference to your Senator
and Representatives, as also their course
on this bill, and I am through. Although
disagreeing with them in polities, truth and
justice compel me to pronounce most em
phatically, any base insinuation against
their honesty, integrity and intelligence, as
" false as the smooth, deceitful sea, and
empty as the whistling wind. That any
niercenaiy or corrupt motive would iullu
enco cither your Senator or Representa
tives, in their votes, or that they could bo
controlled by any "ring," is hooted at
here by gentlemen with whom they havo as
sociated all winter. They, liko Saul, amid
the hosts of Israel, stand head and shoul
ders above any creature in all that consti
tute right toned, honorable gentlemen, who
would insinuate aught against them.
Yours truly, Justice.

SinntMAXBDAi.K, March, 21, 1870.
Mr. Editor In your last issuo I noticed
an error which your correspondent made in
regard to tlio Blohr case. Mr. Dukes did
not. as your reporter said, remove tho body,
but left it in charge of the Coroner in llar
risburg to bo buried by the city authorities,
and requested that the grave bo marked.
This caso still remains a mysleiy. Mr.
Blohr having represented that ho had con
siderable money and owned two estates in
West irgmia, and claimed to havo nil in
terest in tho proposed Shermans Valley
Railroad, known as the South Pennsylvania
Railroad, llu came to our neighborhood
last fall and was not here, long until all knew
him as a kind, obliging and agreeable gen
tleman ; and the news of his death, by his
own hand, cast a gloom over our communi
ty. No papers or money, and not even his
watch were found upon his person after his
death, ami there wcins to be no money in
the banks where he ciaimed to deal. )t is
supposed that ha had in some speculatinn,
and probably was robbed besides, in llar
risburg. When the mystery is solved you
will hear from us again. Boil.
