After nmny .years; after much striv
ing for a simple right to citizens to
have our beautiful village iiieoi'por
iited and made A Borough under Uie
ct of Assembly made feud provided,
the end has at last ttien reached.
The Grand Jury on Wednesday morn
ing of this week recommended the
petition of the citizen1? of Ridgway for
H, borough. This reeotumendation
will lay over until the November term
under a rule of the court, at which
time, unless objections of grave Im
portance be made agf.irist tho recom
mendation it Will then be made absol
ute. As n3 remonstrance was presented
to the court.and as the people generally
who refused to sign the petition, also ex
pressed themselves as unwilling to
sign a remonstrance,it is reasonable to
suppose lhat at the proper time Ridg
way will be made a regular; true
borough. Then at the spring election
the necessary borovtgh officers will be
elected, and the borough machinery

Coninrncing with U. W. Rogers,
who was stood aside, tire ft? hies of
nine others was called, H-ho were re

the name of -John M osier, a farmer, of
Fox township was called, and no
6'bjection being offered' he wn' given a
seat fh the jury box, and counted as
No. 1 in the panel. Andrew Dippold,
Jr., the 0th man called, and coming
two nauiete before 'the first successful
man, was a stepcouslh 'of Warnith
the Constable, fbr whose murder
Engfish is now being tried. That is
his auut was the second wife of War
nith's father. Deceased Was the son
of the 'r'rst wife. This point
caused considerable talk among
the lawyers.as to affinity, consanguin
ity, ties of blood, marrrhge ties, &c,
ull of which, summed up had no
bearing whatever on the case at issue,
as 'nny one could see. Slxty-eijrht
jurors were called also Vnrtecn who

C H. McCauley opened the Case
for the ConiViionwealth. Comment-1
ing with the date of the crime, 17
April. 1880, he reviewed the case at
length, letting forth the line of prose
cution to be followed by the Common
wealth. He defined the crtm'6 'of i
murder, argued at length, on the
enormity of thecrimc.'ftnd the Impor
tance of sustaining every man in the
right of life and property. He espec
ially showed that an officer in th'e dis
charge of his duties should .be zeal
ously uplrcld by all good citfee'ns, that
the law of the couYitry Wight not he
trampled on. In glowing periods he
pictured the cutting down of the man
Warnith in the prime of life, and the
gloom of that family circle, mado des
olute by the hand of the assassin,
while a broken ht'arled wife mourned
and could not be comforted, over the
broken hearth-stone. Maps wvV'-.' pro
duced in evidence of the scene of be
niurdvr, also separate maps of various
views of the hoVs'o whe'iein the deed
was done. Inclosing Mr McCauley
said that he asked the jury "to ren
der substantial jnstice.sueh justice as is
indicated by thestatutethatadornsthis
temple. Justice even-handed and we
shall all be satisfied."
EXMI'Alio!s 1V WITXESfE?.
O. D. Coleman, of Kane, was the
first and only witness called up to the
hour of adjournment last evening. He
was called iu reference to a check, sup
posed to have been forged by Harry
English. The check was numbered
14021, bore the date, Dec 10, 1H70, and
was made payable to the order bf
Harry English? Hindunt,$l 12,00. This
check purported to be signed by T; W.
Lune, and wus 'on the 1st National
Bank of Olean. Mr. Coleman took
this check in payment of a bill of
goods, paying English the balance in
money. He svdre that he saw Eng
lish write his natrie on the check, that
is ton the back bf the check.
This evidence Was objected to by the
defence as Irrelevant in the case before
the court. Also for the reasoii that it
is an attempt to prove another distinct
crime, and might prejudice the jury;
The hour of six having arrived court
adjourned until 8 o'clock Thursday
morning.

In June last, a post on the farm of:
L.D. Weld in Bcccarla township,
was struck by lightning and badly
splintered, and the rails resting upon ,
It was mashed to pieces. The fence
was repaired, but scarcely had this
been done un'tfl, during the month of
July, the. same post was again struck!
and both it and the rails shivered to
atoms. Ajjnin the fence Svas repaired ,
by the planting of a new post and
again during the month of August
the lightning struck and completely
demolished the liew 'arid fence
adjacent thereto. At last accounts
the fence waYkgkih in a perfect con
dition, but there ls.no likelihood of
anybody sitting on that post to watch
the progress of a thunder storm. The
lightnfng is probably'attractecl by the
out croping of some mineral sub
stance. Clearfield Journal.
-The more they try to explain it,
the more clearly do they establish'
that frauds were committed in the
census returns'of fou'th Carolina-. A
leading paper of the state purports to
give absolutely correct figures of its
census, showing the population to be;
096.824, The returns indicate heavy
increxses in every county as compared
witli the returns of 1870, and they will
give Soutli Carolina six members of
congress under the supposed popula
tion of the United States at 49,100,000
the total nu'mTjer of the members of
the house of representatives 300, and
thei'epresent'ation 163,ftS, aud there
will remain a surplus of 14,824 per
srftlls. These figures indicate nn in
crease in population during the past
decade of 291,221, or 41 4 per centum.
This is certainly i'ieyoud all reason,
and If the official figures should prove
to be identical, it will go far to satisfy
all faiV lfiiYided persons that gross
frauds have been committed by the
enumerators, frauds that call for a re
count.
