fall of the Ring these, banks were terribly

several moro will probably follow.
I'at. IlETEn. The Democrat of last
week, referring to the arrest of this renown
ed leader of the "Ring Democracy" of this
county, Rpenks of him as the "Sunhm-y
AmerLxoi'K candidate for ShcrilV." This
is not only ungrateful, but decidedly cool on
the part of Pat's quondam friend and sup
porter.' Does the Democrat expect ti es
cape tlio effects of former associations with
1'rtt, by practicing the uld dodge of "stop
thief-' bv aUeinntinsr to turn hint over to
the tender mercies of the Republicans. In-
graliluite is a ba?e crime. Do not cast off
j our friends wheTitn trouble, ot when they
have "outlived their usefulness." I'at is
just as good now, nud you know it, morally
and politically, ns ho was three years since,
when ho was t he great Mogul of tlio Dem
ocratic party, nnd did nil the dirty work
that wns required, for a consideration,
namely the Sheriff's olliee. If you cannot
keep your promise, don't add insult to in
" -f"nde.

of action and honesty of purpose in public

on account of Slavery having been original

ivligiou.i leaders, to atone for EnglamVs
fehiire in iu'.lieiiiig upon us that "sum of all

Ocit neighbor of tho Democrat, since the

I'at was a good enough Irishman after the

and now you 'wish to "shelve" him ns a

could not bring in the same returns nt the
October election that were sent in at the

two dollars a venr for his county paper.
Where Is tho man, wo ask, who cannot save

A FEARFUL TRAGEDY AT LINN,
MASS.
A Itnsbaitd Charged with Throwing
Kerosene Over Ilia Wine aud Then
Welling Heron Eire.
Boston. Nov. 18. One of tho most bru
tal nnd Inhuman tragedies which ever hor
riflwl any community was enacted at Lynn
last ntglit, nnd is to-day tlio' lending topic
of conversation in that city. The actors
were a man named John G. Clinton, about
fortv-three rears of nsic, a bnrber by trade,
and his wife, who wns made tho victim of
treatment that could only be expected Irom
a liend, she having been shockingly beaten
nnd then literally ronstcd to death.
Tlio scene or the atiair wns on iiowara
street, in one of the small wooden houses
whicli aro set nack trom tne street, ana
accessible by mentis of narrow alleyways
from tho street. Tlio parties lived in the
rear tf No. 3:1, the family consisting of
Clintoa, his wife and four boys, ranging in
ago from threo to scventoeu years. About
half-past eight o'clock last evening two
women, named , Margaret Brown and
Charlotte Mortdyfwho lived almost directly
in front of Cliutou's house, had their atten
tion called to the latter by the sound of
heavy blows,8crcaming and groaning which
proceeded from it.
As the sounds increased tho two women
wcut out and listened beneath tho windows,
but tho sounds suddenly censed and all was
quiet. They then returned to their houses,
but in about fifteen minutes were again dis
turbed by tho samo noises, which they
again sought to traco out as before, but the
sounds ceased ns they had previouslydone.
After this everything remained quiet until
about ten minutes mist 0 o'clock, when the
samo women discovered that tho house was
on fire inside. An alarm wns nt once rais
ed, nnd threo tne.u. named David Ioe,
rrelinghuyscn Moody nnd Frederick Wnl
ton. rushed Into tho houso with buckets.
On enter'uv' tliev fouud that thero was
fire on n table In the front room, also in nn
cnlrv way which led up stairs, and a pile
in tho middle of tlio lloor, consisting of
what appeared to bo a bundle of clothing,
was also burning. On examining the latter
it was found to lie the body of Mrs. Clinton,
horrible bruised nnd burned in a moot
sickening manner. The clothing was al
most entirely burned from tho bxly, which
scorched nnd roasted, ine names

The corpse presented a sickening sight.
There were marks of violence on the head,
consisting of two or three cuts, looking as
though they had been made with some 'dull
instrument. On tho breast wero also
wounds which appeared to have b' u caus
ed by something besides tho llanicN. The
features were rendered unrecognizable, nnd
tho hair was burned close to the head,
leaving the skull bare and horrible crisped
and biaek, the Mesh dropping from the

actually set lire to the body, leaving it burn, j
His previous character had been rather
bad. He has been known iu Lynn for up
wards of twenty years, though uot con

for the past two or three years ho has

Kai'road House, on Market street, nud has

There has frcrjuciitly been trouble be

by the fact that the latter was possessed of
boiuii property which he could not have I lie

MURDER IN 41 YDE PARK.
From the Scranton Republican, Not. 18.
A most sanguinary a (lair took place In
Hyde Park yesterday afternoon at half past
four o'clock, In n saloon on Itfnin street,
nearly opposite the postoffice. Tho saloon
In which tlio affair occurred Is called the
Xfnehnnirk' ITniiiin. nn I U knnt bv a man
named D. 11. Evans. It is one of thoBO low
grog shops 'where tho roughs resort, after
ilieir day's labor, to Bpend any surplus left
of their month's winen.
W lion wo got to tho scena of tho nffray
we found nn excited crowd gathered around
the door, and evidences of the bloody deed
that had been done, on every hand. Mood,
blood, wns seen on every sido ; the door
steps were slippery with the sanguinary
tlood, and the door iramo was an uespaier
ed with it. Tho saloon was crowded. 15o
hind the bar a woman sat. screaming. In
front of tho counter, and with his head
leaning upon it, was the saloon keeper, In
a. woful state of contrition and remorse,
perhaps produced by reflecting on his part
in the deed of blood.
There wore in tho saloon at the time of
tho occurrence live individuals, D. 11,
Evans, tho saloon kepcr, John Loucks,
Ned Sharnc. John Evans, the murderer,
and Reniamin Hushes, his victim. From
John Loucks. who was nn eye-witness of
the whole affair, we cot an intelligent state.
ment. Ho says that Rcnjnmin lluhcs is
a mines and lives in Wilkesbarrc. lie was
formerly a resident of Hyde Park, and had
como up yesterday to see some of his old
acquaintances, among whom wns John
Evans. Tho parties named were in the sa
loon together, nnd wero nil drunk. Evans
and Hughes were sitting at one of the tables,
and hnd several driuks. A disagreement
took place ns to who should pay for some
of the drinks, and some sharp words passed
which tinally resulted in Hughes knocking
John Evans down. Loucks remonstrated
wilb Himhes for doincr so, saving that
Evans was an old man, but Hughes knock
ed him down again. Evans then told
Hughes that ho would stab him if ho did
so again. Hughes desisted, and moved
away from Evans to a chair at tho end of
tho bar, but after a moment's silence Evans
put his hand in his vest pocket, drew there
from a knife, nnd taking it in his left hand,
went up to Hughes ns he sat on the chair,
nud stabbed him in the throat. The wound
is about two inches in length, nnd extends
from the median line of tho throat back
wards and upwards, coining in contact
ith the carotid artery, which was severed.
Tho moment tho stab was given the man
fell from his oont and the blood rushed
fronio tim wound in a torrent. Recovering
his strength, however, he ran to the door,
opened it, gained tho sidewalk nnd ran
dowu the street until oMiosito Dr. Gibbs'
olliee, where ho fell. Some person who saw
p.? ;.. shouted poiiCe, aa w.
i "cmg near uy, ran to arrcsp
the man. As
! soon as he saw the nature of the occurrence,
honiadofor the saloon, whero he found
John Evans making a desperate effort to
cut his own throat while several women
tried to prevent him. The knife was
wrenched irom him before he could do any
thing more than to intlict a tlesh wound in
the side of his neck. The knife is a regular
jack-knife, having a blado about threo in

Sen anton, Pa., Nov. Id. Hyde Park
has imain been visited by one of those catas
trophes peculiar to mining regions. About
3 o'clock this morning the citizens of that
portion of our city lying south of Main
street and in tho neighborhood of Scranton
I avenue were startled from
their slumbers
noise, aud a
I hy a rumbling, crushing
tretiiblini; of tho earth and tin 11- buildinss.
ns if by 1111 earthquake. So violent wero
the shocks nnd so loud tliu noise that they
lied teiror-strieketi from their dwellings.
After the first paroxysm of fright had
passed the cause of the lerr.Vc alarm be
came apparent. The mines of the lirst vein
of the Oxford shall had given way, causing
tho earth to settle some two feel, and form
ing great cracks iu the surface. The area
of ground, which is thickly covered by
buildings nud handsome dwellings, is about
2U acres, extending from Main street, at a
point west of the Welsh Ciilvinislie Church
running liiugonally northeast to Chesnut
street. This boundary of the fall is mark
ed hy a crack which varies in width and
depth.
The crack passing through the front yard
of the Welsh Calviuistic Church goes
(hroiieh the duelling and store of Mr.
Thomas Phillips, Herman's Hotel, and the
adjoining property, breaking their walls and
rockiiiit the buildings from cellar to garret.
Crossing Scranton avenue, it crosses the
corner of Fellow's Hall building, breaking
open the foundation walls nud causing a
large opening iu the brick wall, nud in liict
injuring the entire building. From this
point it runs In an easterly directum,
through the roperty of lr. Heath, lluuicl
Howell, 1. T. Richards, Koipiiro Snyder,
and others to Chesnut street ; tiieneo
diagonally to Scranton avenue, where trucks
of the fall are ht. Hat the effects of the
full are still visibln iu the settling of the
earth about Mr. Herman's residence uud
other dwellings bet ween thin point and the
place ii 0111 which we lirst started.

ARRIVAL OF THE URAXD DIKE
ALEXIS.
IntcniicdIIonr.
New York, Nov. 20.
The announcement yesterday morning
of tlio safe arrival of the lightship of the
Russian frigate hvetland, with tho Wrnnd
Duke Alexis on board, created great ex
citement i and a general feeling of Joy
throughout tho city. It served at once to
dispel tho fears for Ills safety entertained
by some, and' to communicate to our citi
zens tho welcome news that tne long ex
pected imperial visitor had come. The de
tnv if hi nrnvnl bevond the anticipated
tirao has heightened tho excitement con-
cerninc his visit to America, and will un
doubteillv tend to increase tho enthusiasm
with which ho w ill be greeted after ho hns
landed on our shore.
It Is expected tho Grand Duko will bo
landed iu tho city about two o'clock this
afternoon, when tho military will bo in
readiness to the Clarendon hotel. City
hall. Grace Church and other prominent
buildings will bo appropriately dressed with
bunting, and as his imperial highnoBS pnss
es up Broadway, tho Trinity Church bells
will chime the Russian national hymn.
The Clarendon House alone will display
the imperial flag of Russia.
The Russian squadron left Cronstadt on
the 21st of August, sailing for Falmouth,
England, where they arrived on tho Oth of
September, ilero tney wero aeiaycu some
timo by taking in fresh provisions, and on
tho 20th of September thoy Bailed for Ma
deira, where tlio licet dropped anchor on
tho 5th of October. Hero tho Grand Duke
spent five days, when they weighed anchor
for New York.
The Svetland left Madeira on the 10th
itiBt., in company with the llogatiro and
Abreck. On tho third day out tho Abreck
wns signnlled and directed to rendezvous
at New York, the Svetland taking a soutli
weiitnrlv course to mccl'?tho trade winds.
Everything went along well until tho 5th
of November, when they experienced a
gale in whicli tho Rogatiro carried nwny
her forctop gallant masC. On the Cth the
Svotland nnd llocatiro lost sicht of each
other, tho Svetland experiencing very heavy
weather until tho 18th, when they were
able to make a lunnr observation and found
they wcrc in the latiludo of Capo May,
when thev mndo direct for New York.
The vessel was under sail a great portion
of the time, having run short of coal.
Early to-morrow morning tlio Grand
Duko will proceed to Washington, accom
panied by tlio diplomatic representative of
Russia and suite. This visit will not ex
tend over twenty-four hours. It is to be
undertaken inw-ely for the purpose of being
presented to the President, Cabinet, and
fmviijn ministers, who will welcome him in
a body to the White House. Ho will re
turn to New York about Thursday evening.
IIiinbRiKl-N Liability for Wife' Kill.
An action was decided in Philadelphia
on Wednesday, by Judge Thayer, iu favor
of n husband who had been sued by u dry
f;oods firm for the account of a bill tun up
iy his wife. Defence set up that defendant
furnished his wife will) nn uniple supply of
necessaries. In the course oi his charge
Judge Thayer said : "It is a false and fool
ish notion ibr tradespeople tocntertuin that
a husband is bound to pay nil bills con
tracted by his wife. No such monstrous
doctrine is allowed iu I lie law. Tradesmen
must ascertain the facts and the true rela
tions of man nnd wife before allowing the
latter to run up bills whicli he is to bo look
ed to to pay." Commenting upon this ex
position of law, whicli ought to be more fa
miliar than it is, tho Philadelphia Jterord
thinks Hint whcn'trndcspcoplc come to dis
tinctly understand it, "a very sensible step
wilMiavo been', accomplished towards re
form in the wanton extravagance and 1 uiti
ous folly whicli, under the meretricious im
pulse of the stuped despot called 'fashion,'
s wastes the substance, mars the manners,
deforms thejiersons, degrades tho .morals
and wrecks the happiness of myriad house
holds nnd individuals, not only iu this com
munity, out throughout the country.".. j
Hi Arrival. iutViihii:stoii.
Washington, Nov. 22. The Grand
Duke Alexis an ived at an early hour this

Alexis was immediately hurried into a
private carringo aud driven to Minister
Cittacazy's residence, which has been lit
tcd up iu a superb maimer for him.
The grand duko will be presented to tho

To give some Idea of the distress existing con
sequent thereupon, we giva the l.illoninij brief
uud comprehensive extract :
(from the JVVw IV JkrM.)
v Women and chi.i:cn are go'.ng rov.nd,
seeking something to satisfy their hunger, which
there is nothing to supply. No one has provi
sion or money. What provisions tli re were iu
the city are now burned or eaten. A lew people
have enough for a day or two not longer. Pro
visions nre arriving, but aro distributed as Cist
as possible. Twenty ilea I bodies have be. !i
taken to the station on the North side. At pre
sent it is impossible to know who they nre. As
night comes on, the want of fa 4 'n keenly felt.
There are few candles in Hie cdy, ami no water
oieept what is taken from the Lake. Great tears
of thieves arc felt on the We-t sid ; and General
Slii-rldan is .till calling for troops from dilVerent
posts to keep order. All business nnd work is
suspended, and every one is occupied in procur
ing something to eat, anX places of shelter. Tho
sintering on the North side are heart rending.
Fifty thousand men, women an 1 children aro
huddled together like so many animals. Seven
teen thousand Hermans an l Irish tire praying
for relief. Helpless children are asking for bread
from hea it broken parents, who know not which
way to turn, nor to do, exee t to await supplies
n liich niusl he slow in coining, ns there is pail
of the burnt district where it is almost impossible
to travel, patients who had been removed fiom
beds of sickness to save lives, which were nearly
spent, were all exposed to the rain liiFt night and
the cold raw winds to-day. Several deaths have
occurred nt Lincoln Park. Another night must
be spent in the Lincoln Park and the brick Ileitis
of Iiivision street, and yet another. Trains and
extra uie loaded to their fullest capacity, taking
people away, who In many Instance have no
place to go to, but yet cannot stay here, and each
train leaves live times its many passengers as it
lakes away. The "Evening Journal'' got out
half a hlieet to-night, and other papers will fol
low to-morrow .
When sending subcrlpiious please write names
plainly so licit liny can be correctly
acknowledged.
