On Wednesday morning last Miss 'Bocca Bender, of Carroll twp., while passing up Carlisle streot in this borough, fell on the ico and dislocated her thumb, forcing the bono out of tho sockot through the flesh.

John Steckley, of Howe' township, committed suicide by hanging himself in the barn on his premises. IIo had evidently ascended the ladder, to tho hay mow, and after tying the ropo to the round of tho ladder, had jumped off. When found ho was dead. There is no reason known why the deceased committed the deed. lie was a man about GO years of ago, and in good circumstances. Ho was in town the day previous, and appeared in good health and spirits. Forgery. rtouben Stahl, of Tuscarora twp., was arrested on Monday of last woek, charged with forging tho endorse ment of David and VJlrich Humbaugh, to a note for $200, which note he sold to the Newport bank. When arrested one hun- dred and fifteen dollars of the money ob tained was found upon him, which amount was recovered by the bank, btalu was before the couut ou Thursday evening and plead guilty, and was sentenced to the Eas tern Penitentiary, for fourteen months. This is tho same man, over whom tho forcible prayer was made in August 1809, which we reported at tho time. It is a pity theprayor was not answered. Killed by a Lunatic One of the attend ants at the State lunatic hospital was so brutally beaten the other day by a lunatic that he died of his wounds in forty-eight hours. It appears the patient was request cd to perform some prescribed duty, which the latter stoutly refused to do. The at teudant roiteratod his request, when the lunatic turned on hirn with dumoniao fe rocity, felled him to the iloor and jumped on his head and faoo, inflicting ghastly wounds. The injured man received tho best medical attendauce,but with all this he could not survive the torriflo assault more than two days. The attendant was a Ger man named Fidoll, whose only relative (a sister) resides in Germany. Patriot. Bribing the Governor. The Harrisburg " Patriot" says : A rich scene occurred in the executive chamber yesterday. female resident of Philadelphia presented horsolf to his excellency and requoBtod a pardon for a relation now serving out term iu the eastern penitentiary. The story of the woman was afl'ectingly narra ted, and the sympathies of tho governor were excited and he promised to lay the facts before the attorney general for his consideration. With profound expressions of gratitude to his excellency for the favor with which her request had been received she arose, and presented him with a roll or greenback, i no governor, witb rage depicted ou every lineament of his count enance, indignantly refused the gift and peremptorily ordered her to leave the room The woman left confused and frightenod, and a she precipitately rau down the stain went through a series of ejaculations of regret at her great mistake, prominent among which wot " How I have spiled it ! Court Proceeding of January Term. Court convened at 1 o'clock P. M. on Monday of last week, all the judges being in attendance. After some preliminary proceedings the followlrfg jury trials were taken up and disposed of. George L. Shearer, vb. Perry County Mutual Fire Insurance Company. Tho plff. in this case had owned a store in connection with his dwelling house sit uated in Carrol twp., which had been fully insured in tho company. The property was destroyed by fire, and this action was brought to recover the amount of said in surance, which the Company refused to pay, alleging that the lire was caused through his own instrumentality. All the circumstances bearing upon tho case were carefully examined. Tho trial occupied the greater portion of the week. Verdict for dft. Counsel for plff. filod a motion for a now trial. Mclntire & Gra ham foi plff. Harnett & Bponsler for dft. J. Morrison Se Son, vs. David S. Asper. An action brought to recover the value of 45 pounds of wool, which the plfTs had intrusted to the care of the dft. to convey to Newport station and ship, which was lost, as the plff. alleged, through tho neg ligence of the dft. Verdict for plff. The new counsel for dft. filed a motion for a trial. Bponsler & Mclntire for plff. nett for dft. James Crist, by his father and friend J. II. Crist, vs. John Sheats. Thom as Bcalor, by his father, vs. same. Chas. Brown, by his father, vs. same. Thomas Elder, by his father, vs. same. It was agreed by the counsel in the above cases that the result of the trial of one case should scttlo all the others, as all grew out of the same cause. Tho defendant iu this action was burgess of Newport borough and an ordinance had boen passed by the council of said borough prohibiting tho playing of ball in any of tho public squares, streets or alleys, under a penalty of a fine of one dollar. For vio- latiou of this ordinance these boys wore notified by dft. to appear before him and comply with its provisions, which they re. fused to do, whereupon ho sentenced them for 24 hours, confinement in tho county jail. The plDTs. alleged that tho dft. did not possess this authority and sued to re cover damages for false imprisonment. Verdict for plfTs. 23 cents damages. The court reserved its decision upon some points of law and granted a rule to enter a judg. incnt non obstante vcre dicto. This moans that f upon further search it is found that the law does not compel this verdict a .ver dict for the defendant will bo entered. Mclutiio & Sponslor for plfT s. Harnett for dft.

The defendant was indicted for tho crime of forging, to which he plead guilty, and was sentenced to tho eastern penitentiary for 14 months. Commonwealth, vs. Henry Gable & Win, Mont,.

The deft's wero acquit ted, and the county ordered to pay the costs, upon tho condition that the road should be repaired at the earliest day prac ticablo. UrioT ItcmM. On the evening of the 4th inst., the roof ol the kitchen to t he i'arker House in Pat terson, was slightly damaged by flie. Thomas Moore, an old citizen of Frank. lin, lately attempted to end his life by cutting his throat, but bungled the job, so that lie still lives. Mrs. Jas. B.

The Bloom Held Literary Socloty will meet in the lecture room of the Presbyte rian church, on Tuesday evening, January 14, 1873, at the usual hour. David Crist, Esq., of Markelvillo, who bad the bone iu one of his fingers badly broken, a few weeks since while trying to hold a colt, bad to have a portion of the finger taken off. The operation was per formed by Dr. Sweeney, ou Monday of this week. Though rather early iu tho year for plunge baths to be taken, one of our citi zens a few evenings since took one in the 'Big Spring." Ae the stone steps were very slippery, and he only staid in a very short time, probably the persons who de pend on tue spring tor water will excuse him. tW We call the attention of capitalists to an advertisemut headed 10 per cent, in vestments. Gricr City. Indications poiut pretty strongly to the fact that James II. Grior, Esq., formerly of this Borough, but for the last five years of Pottsville, Schuykill county, Pa., is act ually laying out or fixing up a city at East Mahanoy Junction, Schuykill county, Pa;, which is to be called GniEn City, and from appearance, no better location could bo found in the State. IIo has al ready bought 50 acres of land which is clear of stone, and almost lovel with a small stream of running water through it, situate A mile from East Mahanoy Junc tion, j of a milo from Delano, about 1 mile from Quakeake Junction, and .J mile from Summit Station. The Heading Rail Road conuocts with the Catawissa Rail Road at East Mahanoy Junction. The Catawissa Rail Road con nects with the Lehigh Valley Rail Road at Quakeake Junction. The New -York Central Rail Road has a Depot at Tam- mand and the Catawissa Rail Road has a depot at Summit Station, and owns a largo Hotel there. Tho Lehigh Valloy Rail Road runs into Delano, and have built thoir machine and repair shops there, and De lano is already quite a little town. While both the Reading Rail Road and the New York Central are mining and shipping coal. So that Grier's land is entirely sur rounded by Rail Roads, and rich coal mines, which makes it in the very heart of tho groatost Anthracito coal trade in the State, and the prettiest part of the Ma hanoy Valley. It is likoly to bo an immense city. Among tho applicants for Grier's lots are Daniel Garmau, of Dauphin co, A. Guss, and David Hause, of Chester county, Owen Brunei-, of this county, Geo, II. Robiuhold and AVilliam R. Griffith, of Schuykill county and several Delano par- tics all of whom intend to either build or improve their lots and it is said some sev enty five or a hundred thousand dollars is to bo spent in improving the place &c. It really looks as if Grior, had a sure field to make a couplo of hundred thousand dollars within tho next five years, and it seems strango to us that this land had not been gathered up loug ago by older citi zoiib. Wo arc pleased to sco such a pros pect for Grier's prosperity, and at anothor time will endcaver to civo our readers more particulars. Lykens News. A slight fire occurred at the west end of Lykens, on Wcdnosday evening, January 1. Threo children wero loft alone in the house, the oldest not over six years. During tho parents absence one of them upset and broke tho lamp, tho oil taking fire. Tho two cldost children were in the corner behind tho fire, and the youngest on tho other side. It was discovered by tin co men who woro passing, who cxtin- guished the flames before it had done much damage and removed tho children in safoty, The above letter was Intended for last week's edition, but came to hand too late. Cumberland Comity. From the Cum berland county papers we copy tho follow. ing: I Tho furniture ware rooms of Mr. A. B Ewing, of Carlisle, were badly damaged by water tiom the roof. The water broke through on New Year's night, sometime. and was not discovered until the following morning. In addition to the destruction of fancy articles, furniture, pictures, &c. belonging to Mr. E., a large amount of ordered work of the finest kind, was ren. dered. almost a total ruin. "On Saturday morniug, Josh Rohror. lad about ton years of age, fell off a sled and hud his right foot considerably bruised by ono ot tne runners passing over it. On Friday afternoon last, about 2 o'clock a young son of Mr. Wm. M. Watson, of uakvuic, agcrt between 3 ana 4 years, ac cidentally, banged Inmsolt in Ins lather' hog-pen, in the following curious manner The boy had left tho house while the mother was attending to some work, and on being missed sho went in search of him to different places. Not finding him, she went into the lot in tho rear of the house and to her horror discovered tho child banging with his head between two boards in a partition in the pen, and dead. The boy had evidently climbed up tho partition and inserted his head in tho crack, which was scarcely wide enough to all m it it, when his foot slipped, and being unable to help nimseir, lie was strangled. llumlntiHH iNotleeM.
