Sitposeb McnnRR.-Last Saturday morn ing, A man named John Scott, agei about CO years, died near WhistlsSowm, under very suspicious cirenmstances. A 'post mortem examination was held and it was diciiicJ that he came to his death from the effect of poison. On Friday morning, a woman, claming to be his wife, livincr with him, had cillcd at Hartley's drug store, nnd procured some strychnine, which sho paid she was going to use to poison va's. This fact 'together with the evidence that the man had died with symptoms, usual with poisoned persons, led to her arrest, and she is now in jail to await her trial at the August term of Court. Many years ago, a monk confined in an old castle, situated on the bank of the river Danube; while watching the con struction of a bridge across a very dan gerous rapid which rau beneath his cell window, on seeing the workmen engaged in tha construction of the bridge, fre quently fall into the rapid and perish, gave utterance to an expression which had passed into an oft quoted adage. lIn the midst of lile we are in death." Ou Tuesday morning the 3d inst., a young Swede man by the oame of John Johnson, engaged in peeling bark for W. II. Osterhout, in the woods near St. Mary's, was struck by a falling limb and killed. He was falling a tree which swept down by a maple standing near striking oS the limbs in its fall. One of them alimb, abnut six inches in diameter struck Johnson across the head crushiug in his skull aod forcing him by the shock down upon an axe which be held in his hand, serving the small bone of the leg just below the knee. Johnson was an intelligent and active young man, mar ried only a little over a year since, and loaves a wife and infant child to mourn his loss. There would seem to be in this instance a species of fatalism, as Mr. Osterhout and others had endeavored several times to persuade him to remain in the tannery at his usual work, but with fatal presistance he continually re fused.

Our vicinity has been visited by distinguished excursion ists, which of course, has been the sub. jeot of much comment among the na tives. Lost week President Grant, the Postmaster General, Secretary of State, Don Cameron, Calvin Narco and other distinguished gentlemen spent two days along our streams, trout fishing &c, and to ail appearances thry enjoyed them selves hugely. It has been suggested, (piobahly by a Democrat) jthat Bourbon suffered more than the trout. Wo are told the party were not experts at angl ing, but fuhermens wages took a sudden raise and for two days run up to eight dolltirs with an upward tendency at tbe close of the first day. One man fishes all day and reported at evening with four trout and got for his services, eight dollars in cash and a good appetite. There was rather a good joke got of! on the party by two citizens somewhat noted as hunters, who, for short we will call Carp & Sol. After tie party had saciated their appetites for trout their pallets became itchy for venison. So they applied to Carp & Sol for a deer, and wore told that it was out of the sea son, it would take fifty dollars to pay the fine and veuison would be dear meat; Rut who cares for expenses ; they must have a deer killedjbefjre they left' Carp is rather fruitful and suggested to Col. Philips, (President of the Alleghany Valley Road) who had the party in charge, that he knew of just one chance for deer, and if he would steam up and lunihem up the line a ways they would try it. They ran up opposite Jake Englishes and Cuip iSf Sol crossed over to nogeciate for a tuie deer. Jake would sell the deer for fifty dollars, but the old buck was so poor that Carp fc Sol rctujned to the car without- him. Philips said poor or not they must have the deer. 0 Carp and Sol killed and dressed the deer.- Philips paid Jake S50 aud returned to the Presidential party, who, supposing it to be a wild deer right from his furcst home, gave Carp and Sol twenty dollars for their hunting exploiis aud left in fine spirits for Wash ington with Jake English's old buck. We can appreciate the visits sf Presi dent Grant aud his attendants to Elk county as highly as auy one, but consider an open V'olation of the Law of Penn sylvania as reprehensible in a President, as in a private citizen.

Tho New York Legislature to make up for the defeat of the local op tion bill, has passed a stringent law for the recovery of damages, by any bus band, wife or child, parents or guardian, employer or other person who shall be injured in person or property or means of support by any intoxicated person, or in consequence ot intoxication, trom per sons selling or giving away the liquors causing such intoxication. The owners or lessees of the building in which the liquor is sold may also be held liable for all damages sustained and tor exemplary damages, and the unlawful sale of liquor shall work a forfeiture of all rights of the lesee or tenant under any lease or con tract. Justices of the Peace are to have jurisdiction in trying cases under the act when the damages claimed do not exceed $200, and when they are in excess of that amount three Jnsticcs shall trv and determine the case. This is the Ohio law, which has been in operation several years, and beee copied by a number of Western States. In the towns and vil lages it has proved an effective measure, but not of much account in the cities Damages have been given against liquor sellers in a great many cases, and in some instances tbe t rathe has been broken up in particalar localities. The provision holding owners of property, leases to liquor sellers, liable for dama ges has made them very careful as to the business of their tenants. It has also made the saloons keepers caatious in self ing liquor to habitual drunkards or minors. Canned Fruits, Jellies, etc. 30 Cases Canned Fruits and Vegetables, 5 Cases Assorted Jellies.

Monday evening last, about half past nine o'clock this whole community was thiown into a stato of terrible exoitcment by the report that a man named Horack had been killed on the street oppisite John Krug's Meat Market. A few minutes after be ing found, G. 0- Brandon, J. P., was notified, when he proceedod to tho spot indioated and found the body as reported. Dr. Reynolds was summoned, who ex amined the body and pronounced life ex tinct, when the body was removed to a room in the town hall building, and a jury summoned to hold an inquest. Dr. Reynolds being sworn stated that it would probably bo necessary to hold a post mortem examination, when the in quest adjourned until 9 o'clock on Tuse day morning. Tho examination the doo tor had made developed the fact that de ceased had received a terrible wound on the back of the hoad. Tho district at torney, acting coroner, and jury then at tempted to find some evidence as to tho perpetrator of tho deed. But a few min utes elapsed before it was ascertained that a man named Hcury Schutzonback was an eye .witness of the whole affair. He was summoned when he imparted information which load to the arrest of William Zclt, who was locked up to wait the assembling of the coroner's jury. At nine o'cloek the inquest was convened and Drs. Reynolds and Hartman pro ceeded to hold a po.n mortem examina tion on the body of the deceased, after which they testified that deceased had received an injury ou the back part of tho head, the concussion of which had caused congestion ot the brain with a strong effusion of blood on the brain, said wound being made by a blunt instru ment, and was sufficentto cause death. Other testimony elicited pointed to Wm. Zelt as the person who had committed the deed. The jury found the following verdict, "that said John Horack came to his death at tho county aforesaid on the evening of June 2d 1873, by boing struck on the back of the head with a stone or other blunt instrument by Wm. Zclt of St. Mary's, Elk county, Pa., mak ing a gash or cut about two inches in length on the scalp and extending to the skull bone, and causing a mortal wound of which said Horack then and there died at the hour of about, half past nine o'clock on the night of June 2d, 1S73." William Zelt was committed to jail. The deceased was a man of intemper ate habits, and had served a term iu the Penitentiary for murdering a man abont eight years ago. It is a singular co-incident that he met a violent death with in one hundred yards of tho upot he committed a murderous deed eight years a"0. Zelt has been a citizen of this place from boyhood, and has enjoyed tho rcp utatiyn of being a quiet and industrious citizen, lharewas such a markeu utt- ferance in the habits and disposition of the two men, that it has created a great deal of sympathy in this community in favor of tho accused. Gazette. All officers of the State, including county, officers according to an amend ment just adopted by the Constitutional Convention, arc to have fixed regular salaries, to which no fees or other emol uments are to be attached. This will entirely do away with the fee bill a re form which will effect more purification in politics, than any other measure which could be possibly adopted. It is the corruption entailed by the fee bill all over the State, which polutes politics aod makes knaves of men in public life, so that if this is abolished; and a sys tem of regular salaries kept within rea sonable commercial bounds, we will get more faithful service, and less degraded partizan rivalry than that which now makes so much official business a bungle and contests at the polls a piece of black guardism. State Journal. One of the prolific sources of wrong in all elections is found in the manucr in which all panics colonize votersthat is, bringing men in a distance who de feat the leal majority of citizens of such a district. Au amendment just adopted by the Constitutional Convention re quires voters to reside in a district in which they vote for one month preceed ing tho election, including also natural ized citizens, who must be a citizen ol the district for one month also, before he can vote, which, of course, requires him to be naturalized one month before elec tion before he can voto. This will pre vent much corruption in securing offices where the emoluments are large, by bri bery and buyiug support by dividing the perquisites of their offices. It will also prevent the great rush for naturalization on the eve of elections in our cities and counties where tbe foreign popula tion is large.
