do harm, aud may be of service. There
is no necessity of death risukiog from
diphtheria or croup especially with the
young, if the proper preveutiva is ap
plied in lime, and it is at the service of
every mother and nurse in the whole
country. It is. simply to spread com
mon tar on a tuutlio strip, as you would
prspare a plaster, and wrap it around
Jlhg neck aud glands of the patient.
Henew and supply fresh tar on the child
once or twice a day, and its life is as
sured. This is a very simple cure, and
diphtheria is in almost every case fata',
we would advise those having it to try
this remedy. There is nothing injuri
ous in tbs tar, and therefor it can
have no bad effect

Last Saturday at fifteen minutes to cijht
o'clock, in the evening, as B. F Weis, a
young man about eighteen years old, and
assistant of the freight agent, was going
home to supper he was suddenly startled
by a blow on the head with a club, or tome
othor heavy weapon, and partially stunned.
He at once started ou a run, and had pro
ceeded but a a few rods, wheu ha stumbled
and fell fouard, at the same time receiving
a bull it through the first joint of his left
little finger. The men who fired the shot
followed Immediately , and collaring Ws s,
proceeded, without uttering a word, to
rifl'lehis pockets, aud had succeeded in get
ting a Urge pocket-book, which he carried
iu his 'inside coat pocket, when he jerked
away and run for home, (made a home
run,) loving the rascals iu possession of a
piece of Lis paper collar, one ofhispaut's
pockets, and a piece of his coa' tail. Dur
ing the day Weis had been colls cting
freight bills etc , for the H R Company,
amounting to several hundred dollars, and
as two or three traiiips wete notiped loung
ing about the depot, it is Bupposcl they
thought he would have the money he had
collected with him, fortuuately however he
bad remitted the money on the evening
mail. The pocket book, which the thieves
got, contained fifteen dellars in money, be
sides some other trinkets, while his watch
and twenty -five dollars in currency, he had
ia his vest pocket escaped the thieves.
The probability is that had Weis not
stumbled, the shot might have proved fatal
instead of simply wounding him.

Tuesday adapted a substitute for it by a
vote of 132 yeas to 113 navs. '1 he sub

Tho esse of the United States vs. J.
D. Leaonard, the postmaster at Knnc,
charged with opening and detaining
letters adresscd to his lortncr pRi'tncr, F.
W. Mecto, was heard Friday. The
evidence is, us follows:
F. W. Mocsc, sworn I reside at
Eane, Pa', I am acquainted with J. D.
Leonard; on the 14th day of October,
1873, I received letters (marked A.
15.) opcued as they now are; 1 was at
Smithport nt the timo iiiy.wifcbrought
them to tun.
Cross-examined by J- Ross Thomp
son, Esq,- I went to Smethport Sep
tember 11, 187;i. I did not return to
Kane until some time in Feburary,
1874;! was confined iu jail there mi
charge ol forgery, preferred by J. )
Leonard; I thiiik there was another in
formal iou ii. si 11st 111c, Hiid prchaps I was
held on that charge; Mr. Leonard was 11
witness against mo at Smethport defend
ant and I bad been partner and the
partnership lus never been disolved by
my consent, ulthough defendant pub
lished a dissolution notice September
15. 1873.
Defendant was nnd ftill is postnristcr
at Kane; I never delegated authority to
him or any tno to open mv individual
letters it was never the habit or custom
for us to open each others' individual
Inters, exhibit "A." is in 'the hand
writing of Mr. t'chtter, of Warren
exhibit "13." is from Jos. Clark, Jr.,
ol Warrm
Rc-cross examination Defendant aud
I were iu the'gmecry busiiiess; wc bo
gn in January, !Sli9; the firm ol
Schucr & Sou, of Wurrcn, were mer
chant tailors; we did i;ot sell clothing
but did deal in furnishing good-; we
never purchased elolhii.g of tliem we
never purchased groceries of (Mark &
Co , I was discharged by the Court ss
I understand because the alleged for
ged check was lost.
Catherine Meese, sworn I am the
wife of F. V. Meesc, (exhibit "A." and
'R " shown witness,) I have seen theo
letters belorr; the day I went to Smeth
port to see my husband, who was in jail,
Mr. Leonard h. tided u;e these two lct
teip; I reached Smethport the same day
and delivered tho letters to him; Mr
Leonard told ma to take tho biters over
to Mr. Merge, that he (Leonard) had
opened them and said he thought l.e
hud done wrong in opening tliciu.
Cross-examination Vv'e were mar
ried iu Cumberland, Md., about thirteen
years ogo; wy tuadcu name was Cather
ine Peiiwo; we vent to Altoona, Pa.,
trim there to Rroad Top, in three years
to Kane, Pa., whi te b I: as been en
gaged iu the Mercantile business; my
husband had been in jail at Smethport
two or three weeks before I visited liim
tho first time; the next tinie I visited
him vs in about two weeks thereafter,
at which time I took tho lutteis to him;
when Leonard gave 11; u the letters I was
in Mr. Campbell's s'ei-h ia liotit of the
post office; Campbeil bad Leea working
for my Ltisband tod Mr. l.eound; he
was boarding at our house tit the time;
I did uot get. out of the slci-'h. Camu-
bcll did; for what porposj I :lon't know;
the store and postofiice were together;
I dou't lecollect anybody was standing
bout the door; I believe it v.as ebou"
ten or eleven A. M; I cyu't possibly
say whether it was sle-'ghinir or not at
tint time; Mr. Cmpbell was standing
ou the platloini during the conversation
Lc:wi.eij the defeiidunt ai.d myself we
had a team; Mr. Leonard br. light on!
tho letters and said "hero s:re iwo let
ters for your hubi.iui; 1 opened them
aud tliink 1 Lave done wrong" I don't
remember that be said "I opened them
by mistake;" 1 am sure he did not ssy
so; the eu elopes are now just as they
were then; I can't read witting; I dou't
think the writing on exhibit '-R" is uiy
husband's.
Re-direct I csu'l read writioir, and
as I put the letters in nsy pocket with
out lookiug ut. t::ciu, cm t now say
whether the wilting is tke s;.me it then
was.
Jamcs.Catnpbcl!, sworn I reside at
at Kane; 1 know defendant, on electiou
day; October. 1873, I was taking Mrs.
Meescovcr to Suiethpoit; I had some
business to do wi:h Mr. Leonard at.d
stopped to see him; Mr. Leonard
brought out two'lettcis and, lauded
them to Mrs Meese; 1 ean'tsy whether
we were using a sleigh or a wagon; the
suow cauic early and we sometimes used
oue null sometimes the otlu-r; defendant
banded tbe letters to her bud said.
IIe?o are two letters for Frank; "I
oieued them and sliouldu't navn done
it; 1 supposed they concerned the firm."
Exhibit A uud li showu witness. To
the best of uiy recollection theso are
the idtuttcal envelopes.
Cross-examined i put no marKs
upou the euTelopes; I cant swear those
are the identical letters; I am sure rs
Libit Ii is not tbe same; it was ut tho
time defendant Lauded, iLcui to Mis.
Meese the name J. D. Leonard was not
then on; I uever saw the Utters tin:e I
was at the jail until yesterday iu the
presence of Mr. Meese; he only asked
me if I recognized the letters; 1 had
read the nddrtrg at the time 1 first saw
the letters; I should uot say exhibit li
is in haudwriting of Meese; there is a
resemblance to his.
Robert Denuisnn, sworn. I reside in
Warren; am postmaster there; I was
ptstmuster there during 1873; exhibits
"A" and R" showu wituess; the post
niaiks aie those of our cfiice; the date
is always correct; it is tho universal
custom to mail letters the day they are
stamped; after letters are postmarked,
they are always scut out within an hour
or two thereafter; Warron letters ought
to reach Kaue by duo course of mail
within one hour from the time they are
posted; exhibit "A" is in the hand
writing of C. A. Schuer, of Warren.
Cross-examined I have no record or
recollection of these identical envelopes;
I can't say what year the letter was
posted.
The defendant was held in (1,000
bail to answer at tbe July term tf
