D., an -eminent clergyman of the Lutheran church, occurred last Sunday morning at his residence, at 644 Race street, Philadelphia, in the 01st year of his age. A terrible tragedy occurred in Philadel phia, last Tuesday night. Thomas Parker shot his wife seriously wounding her, and then killed himself. The family belonged to the aristocracy, and were quite wealthy. The cause of the attempted murder, and subsequent suicido, are unknown. Gekeral Schofield, commanding the Department of Columbia, has issued mili tary orders directing the sentence of the court martial in the case of the Modocs sentenced to death to be carried out in ac cordance with the President's order, and fixing the hours of their execution between ten A. M.. and two P. M., on the 3d of October, at Port Klamath, Oregon. ..TEE PANIC. The general appearance of financial af fairs is not quite as blue as it was a week since. It is to be hoped that a general 'break up' is averted for the present, though there are some who insist upon it that we have reached the 'settling day' that comes to the mercantile community once in eight to eleven years. They hold there is a vast amount of indebtedness which muBt be wiped out by bankruptcy before business can be resumed with any steadiness. There is a theory which accounts for the regular recurrences of mercantile crisis by alleging that the average profit of business is from two to three per cent., while the average price paid for money is from seven to ten. Of course, ruin is enevitable when business is conducted in this way, and a panio by which indebtedness is suddenly wiped out becomes necessary before business can be resumed. Whether this theory be true or not, it is plain we have reached the day when the entire mercantile community must move with great caution, or a general break up will soon visit this nation. A Warning to Pensioners. The Commissioner of Pensions announces, that be is In the receipt of information showing that examining surgeons in vari ous places have been guilty of Sssning cir culars to pensioners requesting them to appear before them for the biennial exam- lnation. These circulars are couched in language which tends to mislead pension ers, impressing them with the idea that they must appear before that particular surgeon or board of examining surgeons, and no other, for examination. Invalid pensioners may apply in all' cases to the most convenient examining surgeon, who will be the one nearest or most accessible to thoir homes, regardless of any circular, Circulars of this kind ate issued wholly without authority, and are regarded by the Commissioner of Pensions as in overy respect unprofessional and unwarrantable, A Female Horse Thief Hanged. The Gainesville Gazotte says : Nancy Hill, the notorious femalo horse thief and ranger, was hanged about six milos from Montague, on Denver creek, several days since. Her body has just been discovered suspended from a post-oak. nor saddle and bridle were laying near upon a rock, and her pony was found a mile or so away, It is supposed that Dave Porter, her con, sort, was killed at the same time, but his body has not as yet been found. The woman Hill and Porter were together only a short distance ahead of thoir pursuers when last seen, which was at Victoria Peak, on Thursday evening last a week, tJf A strange and fatal disease, produc ing great consternations, ts very prevalent at Eelton, Utah. Persons die in a few hours after being attacked. The disease resemble fever. For tha Bloomfield Times. Hillersbnrg Fair. ; MiLLEnsDuno, Dauphin Co., Pa., September 18th, 1873. The Upper Dauphin Agricultural and Horticultural Society commenced its annual exhibition on Tuesday, Sept. 10th, 1873, and thus far has progressed quite success fully Thousands are coming in from all parts of the county, and especially the people from the rural districts, who appear joyous and happy, betokening a time long to be remembered by the sturdy yeomanry of Dauphin County. Tho place selected for the exhibition is situate three-fourths of a mile north west of Millorsburg, oif Sue line of the Northern Ceutral R. It., antni particularly remark able for the beauty of its locality, largo and oommodious inclosure and the beauty of the Bcenery on the banks of the Susquehan na. The Floral department is one that at tracts a great deal of attention and is well worth the time employed in viewing the rare specimens of flowers which are so el egantly arranged by the proprietor of tho Riverside Nursery, at Harrisburg, Mr. G. McFarland. The Fancy dopartmeut is woll arranged. It would consume too much of your time and would be quite task for me to enumerate all that is attrac tive in that dopartmont, but suffice it to say that it is woll represented and reflects a groat deal of credit upon its patrons. The Model department contains one which is worthy of note, viz. a Double Turbine water wheel, manufactured by Barker & Baker, Ballston, Spa, Now York. As a Turbine it has two independent wheels the primary wheel of itself being a first class Turbine wheel and giving a per centage equal to any other first class wheel in the market, with the secondary wheel attached, the proprietor claims to have greater percentage than any wheel ever in vented and it is certainly worth tho careful attention of our practical mechanics throughout this country. The Fruit department was not very ex tensive, but presented some very fine fruit, such as apples, pears, grapes, &c. There was a number of samples of wheat, and some of the finest quality that we ever had the pleasure of examining, which speaks well for tho agricultural districts of Dauphin County. Passing from this the next was tho Stock department, which was not well represented, as such stock is com monly found in the hills of Perry and would never bo placed on exhibition. Tho Agricultural department is the next of note and was well represented with farming implements, such as reapers, mowers and grain drills, &o. We noticed a Marsh Harvester, roaufactured at Lew- isburg, Union County, Pa. It is peculiarly constructed with a platform for two per sons to stand upon and bind the sheaves while the reaper is in motion, which I think is quite a valuable Invention. I will refer to a small portable engine that was invented by a boy, by the name of Yeager, of Millersburg, who is quite a genius, being only fourteen years of age, and an inventor of and manufacturer of a steam engine. This much for sister Dau phin. The raoing on Tuesday and Wed nesday, was not very exciting, being most ly confined to scrub horses, except on Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock a trot came off and was closely contested by the following horses : Butter Boy, owned by Fuhrmau, of Perry County ; Dolly Varden, owned by Mr. Anthony, of Lykens ; and the Mare Lafayette, owned by Cummings, of Harrisburg. The first heat was won by Butter Boy, time 2:50. Tho second by Butter Boy, in 2:50 J. The third by the Mare Lafayette, time 2:50. This beat was fairly won by Mr. Fuhrman's horse Butter Boy, but was awarded to the Mare Lafay ette, by the Judges, but I am glad to say that one of the Judges from Perry, had the manliness to resign and not sit with t body of men who would allow their preju dice to usurp thoir better judgment and prompt tbom to do such an unfair and con temptible trick as to award a premium to one who had not honestly won it. Every fair man on the ground protested against the injustice, and it would not have been a difficult task to have raised a mob and run those fellows out of the enclosure, so excited were the people. The honest peo ple of Dauphin county, cannot but blush for shame, that creatures should be placed in such important positions, and lot this be a warning to the managers of tho Perry county Fair, to select good and honest men for those responsible positions, not such chaps as some of those Dauphin co Judges. The fourth heat was won by tho mare Lafayette, also, the fifth by the same. On the third heat the Mare Lafayette passed Butter Boy oo a run and thus gain ed the inside track, and on tho fourth tho driver of Dolly Vardon and Lafayetto, managed to jockey Mr. Fuhrman, to the outside track, when bis position was sec ond. I am glad to say that at a meeting of the managers of the Fair, that the first premium was offered to Mr. Fuhrman, but which he respeotfully declined to accept, Thursday afternoon four horses wore entered, viz : Bhoo Fly, Mare Lafayetto, Lady Frock and Butter Boy. The first heat was won by Shoo Fly. Time 2:50f Second by Shoo Fly, in 2:47. Third by Lady Frock, in 9:401. Fourth by Lady Freck, time 3:48. Fifth and lost heat, as the horses came to the score, one of the Judges gave the word go and another tap ped the bell to come back, when two of the horses went on, and the other two came back. Lady Freck and Butter Boy, trot ted the mile, when the Judges decided it no go and ordered them to trot it over. Mr. Freck would not lot his horse trot another heat and thus another dissatisfac tion arose which was not settled when I left. David Mumma, Esq., of Harrisburg, delivered the agricultural address, com mencing at 1J o'clock P. M., of Thursday. It was quite interesting. During the de livery of this address, the U. A. Mechanics paraded through the enclosure, headed bj four Bands and one Drum Corps, all of which discoursed excellent music It gives me much pleasure to say that the Upper Dauphin Fair was quite a success, and an occasion long to be remembered by your reporter.

Richmond, Va., September 23. Hon. Samuel Thomas, member of tho State Leg islature from Warron county, was found dead in his room at tho Ballard House this morning. He took part in the delibera tions of tho State Committee last night, and retired in apparent good health. t3T The inquost on tho body of David Carroll, found dead with his skull crushod, in front of a negro drinking saloon in Jorsoy City, resulted in a verdict of death at the hands of Daniol Wobster, koeper of the saloon, who followod him into the street from the store and struck him with a blunt instrument. IW William Pateo, of New Hampton, N. II., has been arrested charged with the murder of his wile, whose body was found in a closet susponded by a cord from a hook in the house a few days since. Ho has confessed that she died in a scuffle with him, he having his hand on her mouth at the time, and that he placed her body whore she was found. , P The reputation of members of the the Legislature for sobriety seems to be rather bad in Kentucky. Two of them were rather noisily drunk on a railroad train tho other day, and when the conduc tor remonstrated, one of them pompously asked, " Do you know, sir, that 1 am a member of the Legislature?" The con. ductor quietly replied, "You have got the symptoms." t-Tliere was a severe storm in Florida on the 19th inst., blowing downhouses,uproot- ing trees, and destroying crops and stock.

St. Marks was completely washed away, only two houses being left standing ; twenty families are homeless. tS" A letter from Wisconsin says tho members of the State Legislature are very generally signing a paper calling on Sea ator Carpenter to rosign his seat in the Senate, alleging that he no longer repre sents tho Republican party of Wisconsin, either practically or morally.

In fact the wicked old sorpont was so comfortable that it was with a good doal of difficulty that it was porsuaded to uncoil ; and when ho did so instead of stopping, like a fair minded snake, to have his photograph taken bo bolted hastily into a hole.
