4 lit ioomfidtr imfs NEW JTLOOMFIEID, TENN'A. TuctHUty, March 3, 1874. Tub bow horse disease scorns to be male- ing its appearance in different parts of the country. ' It may be well for our readers to take notes of remedies that have proved successful. The treatment adopted by the New York veterinary surgeons is to. put horses on a simple diet of long bay and fod- dorof bran. They are then given homco- pnthio doses of sulphur aconite and bella donna, no outward application being made. Thk women oloctcd to the School Com mitteo in Boston have come off victorious at last, the Supremo Court having deoided that there is nothing iu the Constitutiou of that Commonwealth to prevent a woman from being a member of a school commit- toe. It is expected that they will now be given their seat without further opposi tion. ' This, however, will not be the only result of the decision. The Court express ly held that the common law permits "a , woman to 1111 any local office of an adminis trative char.ictor.tho duties attached to which are such that a woman is competent to perform them." Under this decision Mrs. Julia Ward Howe has ouly to prove that she is competent to perform the duties of the Governorship of Massachusetts to be eligible for election to that office. Trim ," tcmpeianco panic" continuos to -spread. It bus now Teachod New York, nd is promised a foot hold in Philadel Ihia, this week. While we are firm friends of temperance, we cannot but condemn the action of women who crowd themselves upon the premises of others, against the will of the occupants, thus committing one wrong in their nttompt to correct another. Very many of , the . parties prominont in this, movement do it for large pay, while others who spend whole days in the streets and bar-rooms, could really do more good nt borne. In many instances an untidy house, or negligent wife-and mother is causing those who are dear to her to seek bar-rooms and saloons, when a sunny home would keep them safe from temptation. Let women make home pleasant and it will do more to promote temperance and Virtue, than the course adopted by the fanatics. We do not believe auy real permanent good ever came from a fanatical attempt to cor rect an evil. Conversions mado under such circumstances are . usually but short lived, and the lust state of such men are generally worse than the first. llarrlkburg Correspondence. ; , , llAuiusnuRO, Feb. 28, 1874. Some new developments have taken place in connection with the "bank swindle." It was found that the letters to Saunders & Gibbons were delivered to the Bolton House and by the clerk they were given to W. II. Dimmick, member of the Legisla ture from Pike and Wayne counties. The other conspirator was found to be I. M. Kreitor, a broker of this city. Both patties were arrested and entered bail for their ap pearance before the U. 8. court to stand trial for violation of the postal laws. Nearly a bushel of letters have been received from parties throughout the State, very many inclosing the remittances which the circu lars, refured to In my last letter, called for. There is no doubt but what a portion of this money was to be used to convince certain members of the necessity for an increase iu the rate of interest, and the remainder was to be the reward of those who bad originated the swindle. If Dim mlck and Krolter are guilty of an attempt to bribe the Legislature, are not thole who remitted the money equally guilty ? A list of the names of the contributors to this corruption fund is promised and will bo losked for with groat interest. I have seen a partial list and oonfess my surprise at seeing the banks and bankers who are there represented, as willing to be benefited by corrupt legislation. Mr. Dimmick the (Uon?) gentleman who bails from Wayne, has saved himself from expulsion from the House i by sending in uis resignation. Many members were opposed to accepting it, but the Speaker ruled in favor of Dim mick, accepted bis resignation and issued his writ for a new eleetion, to 1111 the va cancy. The matter is still being investi gated by the committee, and earnest efforts are being made by some prominent per sons to suppress the matter as far as is pos sible. . The judicial apportionment bill lias passed the Senate, leaving Perry and Ju ' niata as the 41st district. A bill has passed the House providing for the selling of bark by weight. The bill will be found in another column. Jul. J Considerable discussion has been bad this week over the salaries of the judges, and an evident disposition is shown by the Senators to make the pay snob a sura that political lawyers will find the omce worth striving for. On Thursday the House by a very decid ed Vote determined to indefinitely postpone further consideration of the "interest bill," so there Is now no prospect of any change in the law this session. The Legislature re-union ou Wednesday was rather an interesting occasion, nlxty kix person who bad served the htsto pre vious to 1H48 were present. The question as to what salary the mem bers of the Legislature shall receive Is oc 4 :: .:Cr rut oupyiog the attention of the Senate... It is now assorted that there is no salary fixed by law. so that there is no constitu tional objection to the -present body fixing their own as well as future salaries. I therefore think it safe to predict that a liberal salary will be allowed, as the present legislature is to share the benefits or such action. Ten dollars a day is the amount proposed as a fair equivalent for the services of these solons. Whew ! the idea of the majority of the men composing the Legislature being worth that sum, when Judge Sharswood, Asa Packer and other such men once thought it an honor to serve iu the samo oapaoity for f 1.60 per day. If the services of some of the men who value themselves at $10 per day could be had at their actual worm and be disposed of at their own val uation, it would be a good speculation. Petitions aaainst the repeal of the " local option" law have oome in numerously signed from Chester, Blair and Lycoming counties. lCID JNCJTC, Broke Jail A Daring Escape. Four prisoners made one of the most daring escapes on record from the jail at New Castle, Del., on Wednesday night last. The four burglars who bad robbed a a bank also took with them a man namod Frazior, who was convicted about ten years ago of killing his brother-in-law at Middle town, Del., and sentenced to imprisonment for life. It is supposed the confederates came from Philadelphia to New Castlo at night in a steam tug, and landed and enter ed the towu shortly after midnight. Two such boats are known to have arrived, and one left about three o'clock. The paity found near the jail two lad ders belonging to a work man who bad them in use the day before. These they fastened together, making one of sufficient length to scalo the walls of the prison yard, and descending into the back yard they then mounted to the coll window of Law- ler and Ilurlburt on the west sido of the prison, prying the window from its position and enabling those two to join the crowd outside. ' ' It is probable that Lawlcr or Ilurlburt then directed the subsequent movements) and they then turned tbeir attention to the rescue of their comrades, who were con lined in a cell on the other side of the prison on the lower floor. ' ' Thoy therefore wont to a door on the same side of the jail, which opens into a back yard, and here they cither knocked after the fashion of their attempt at the bank, or their operations mad some noise. At any rate they attracted the attention of tho warden on guard, Israel Sidings, who went to the door, unbolted it and looked Out. . " ' ,; ' Whou Mr. Ridings threw bnci the door as many of the men on the outside as could possibly do so rushed in and seized him, forcing him into silence. Tbey then closed the door behind them, and thus bad the prison all to themselves, to do whatever they wished, as Hidings was the only ofU cer on duty. He was hurried along the cor ridor, Ilurlburt picking him up like a child and carrying him. They took Win into the cellar of the jail and there bound and gagged him. His hands wore handcuffed together, bis feet secured to a post by a chain. A cord was then tied around bis body and back under bis arms, and a huge lump of ooal was placed under bis shoulders. Then a gag about two inches iu diameter was forced into bis mouth, and securely fas tened there by means of a strap, which was buckled around bis head. In this condition Mr. Hidings was left and the villains then ascended the stairs into the corridor, into whioh they led. Big Frank, Hope and Frazier. ' No other persona ' were 'rolcasod from tbeir cells and no interference was made with any other department of the prison. The whole party then left as quietly as they came, and the escape was not discov ered until after daylight, i When Deputy Sheriff Griffin was awaken ed be found the cell doors and the jail door open, and the convicts gone. Ridings, after some search, was discovered in the cellar in a perfectly helpless condition. Being relieved from bis bonds and gag be could neither speak nor stand. Uis jaws refused to close, and in fact be was in a condition which, bad ' it been protracted much longer, would have resulted in death. Ought to be Hung. At Rochester on the 20th ult.,souie wretch started a fire under the second story stairs in public school bouse, No. 13. The flames were discovered in time to permit of their suppression before much damage was done, and before there was any panic Three hundred children in the upper rooms would bave been cut off from escape except by windows, if the flames had pro gressed far. No. 0 public school bouse was set on lire on Tuesday, but no damage was done. ' ,. , . His Own Horse Doctor. a eneiourne all, Mass., man bad a horse with two lame legs, which be thought ought to be poulticed. So he took a pair of his own drawers and, drawing them up over the horse's legs, tied them at the bot tom, and strapped tbem over the back ; be then made a large pair of poultice and poured it into the drawers. ' H is needless to add that those legs are all right now with the exception of a little hair that came off very naturally. Confession of a Murderer. M'Nutt, who, with Winner,' murdorcd and burned a painter namod Saviors,' at Wlohita, Kansas, in December1 last, has confessed his crime. ' lie says Winner per suaded him long ago, in Kansas City, to enter upon a course of crime, and planned the whole affair. ' M'Nutt was to have bis life Insured for Ave thousand dollars, and "thon kill and burn some victim and palm off the body for his, so that the money Could be collect ed. At first they inteudod ' to commit the crime In Kansas City, but finally concluded to go to Wichita, thinking ' their escape would be easier there. Being painters, the men Btarted business and soon built up a fine trade. They were delayed, however, from car rying out their plans for want of a victim, but Winner at last came to Kansas City and engaged Saviors to work for thorn, and sent him down. They met him at the do pot on his arrival at Wichita and took him to the shop, no one knowing anything about it. They made him drunk, and theu gave him ether until unconscious. They then put his faco over tho fire aud burned it until it could not be recognized, and laid him on a bed saturated with coal oil. . M'Nutt then cut a gash in Winner's arm with a pair of sissors, and opening a vein in Savior's arm, took out a quart of blood and sprinkled it over Winner to make it appear ho bad bled a good deal. M'Nutt then left his vest and empty pocket book back of the homo, where it would appear that robbers bad dropped it, and took a train via Atchison, for Missouri. Winner then set fire to the building, which was burned, and reported that be bad been robbed and M'Nutt killed and burned. The Strike at Catasanqna. ' A letter received in Harrisburg from Catasauqua under date of February 10, says : Our furnace men all struck for higher wages this morning. This strike is tho most complete of any we hav ever bad here. They throw down thoir tools with out oven stopping up the furuaoes, from which tltey had just drawn tbw. cinder. The company are doing their utmost to get men to "blow out," but without success as yet. If tbey don't succeed in this fcnlght or to-morrow morning . the furnaces will chill." Things look badly to-night. Many of the men are intoxicated and threaten the lives of any ono that attempts to blow out the furnaces. A Supposed Murdered Man Turns np.

Play's wife and children are still living in Louiavillo, and had mourned him as dead. Fined for Contempt of Jury. ' A welt-known Lafayette, Ind., land-own er was reoently fined for allowing Canada thistles to-grow on his farm. Being some what angry at the jury on account of the finding, lie "let out" at tbem, and was ar rested for contempt. 1 ' ' Miscellaneous News Items. ' tUT On. Sunday evening a week, the Rev.. T.
