L A rather singular accident occurred Sun

west ot IjUrobe. She was sitting in the par

through a window, knocking a piece of

the sight of that optic. A rather singular
fact concerning the above is that although
the jarticle of glass wxs buried deep into

The leading article in the Xurth American
Review for January, contains the judgements
of five of tho moat distinguished American
authorities upon "The Moral Responsibility
of the Insane." Just at present this subject
occupies a very prominent place in the
minds of the American people ; but quite
apart from its momentary interest, as con
nected with tho extraordinary trial now in
progress in Washington, the problem of de
termining the fact of insanity, and fixing
the limits of responsibility of the insane, is
one that in itself possesses an irresistible at
traction, for every - generous mind. The
wreck and ruin of intellect appeals at once
to our highest sympathies, nnd to whatever
is noblest in human curiosity. The authors
selected for the discussion of this subject are
Drs. Beard and 8eguin, of Xcw York, Dr.
El well, of Cleveland, Dr. Jewell, of Chicago,
and Dr. Folsom of Boston. The other arti
cies iu the January number of the Jterinr
are as follows: "The Xew Political Ma
chine," ay Win. Martin Dickson: "Shall
Women Practice Medicine?" by Dr. Mary
Putnam Jacob! ; "The Geneva Award and
the Insurance Companies," by G.B.Cole;
and "A Chapter of Confi-derate History," by
F. G. Ruffln.
The announcement is made that the Feb
ruary number of thc Jlciicu, to be issued
January 15th, will contain Part III of the
"Christian Religion" series of articles, and
that it is to be a verr able defence of the
Christian faith.

Patrick Dolan, one ofthe six tir seven in
dicted parties charged with the murder of
Maurice Healey, at Dunbar Furnace, Fayette
county, last June, was put tijio;i his trial
last week, which lasted several days, and,
remarkably strange to relate, the jury in his
case returned a verdict of "murder in the
second degree." Dolan was citherguilty,or
he was innocent. If he aided in any way in
bringing about the violent death of Healey
he was guilty of murder in the first degree;
if he was innocent of any such participation
he was entitled to an acquittal for be it re
membered, the unfortunate man was cooly
and deliberately shot to death on the public
highway, in the night time, by parties lying
in wait for his blood. The evidence, which
was mainly circumstantial, was largely and
strongly against the prisoner. , ,
. m m - - -
We do not propose to have any contro
versy with the Meyersdale Cumnefrinl, and
ho our readers will overlook our paying
attention for this one time to such trifling
insignificance. It's editor, not satisfied with
having worked against Mr. Cessna and hav
ing printed spurious tickets that if circu
lated yould have lost him hundreds of
votes, he now, in speaking of the Hebald's
saying that neither Mr. Cessna nor his friends
intended to contest Mr. Baer's election, gives
1 jbiication to the following :
"Nothing is further from the truth. Mr.
Cessna came to Somerset at the urgent
solicitation of three ottorneys, members of
Mr. Scull's factional, political family, to en
ter the preliminaries for the eontest. Mr.
Cessna asked a prominent attorney at Som
erset to take charge of the case, saying that
he intended to contest. A gentleman of
Brothersvallev was to engineer the disfran
chisement of Meyersdale and Summit. In
fact all the preliminaries were arranged, but
at the last moment Mr. Oasna refused."
That the above is entirely false, a lie man
ufactured out of the whole cloth, many of
our readers know. Now we do not wish to
bandy words with thc editor of the Commer
cial, but in justice to Mr. Cessna and his
Somerset friends we make the following
proposition and ask tliat it be accepted or
that the Commercial man write himself down
the falsifier that he is:
That the editor of the Commercial and our
selves each place $400 in the bands of a re
sponsible man and if be can establish the
truthfulness ofthe above four assertions we
to forfeit $100 on each, and be to forfeit a like
amount upon failure to do.aaj the money
forfeited to be given to. some charitable in
stitution. We know whereof we aflirm
when we say tbaj not one Somerset attorney
solicited Mr. Cessna to come to Somerset for
the purjiosc of arranging about a etuitest,
and when he was here that not on attorney
advised hint to contest, and that he said
most decidedly that ke was opposed to
makvo; cosiest. We know that the editor
( this paier at all times advised against a
contest, that there were no preliminaries ar
ranged, and that the matter was never for a
moment seriously considered either by Mr.
Cessna or his Somerset friends.

The Members of the Somerset Bar vote
"Xo Banqvet" fob Ji-rxiK Hall.
t or several days prior to thc 19th inst., a
notice was posted up at the Prothonotary's
office, requesting thc members ofthe Bar to
meet on thc evening of that date at W. H
Koontz's office, to take proper action in re
gard to the retiring judges of the several
courts of our county. Monday afternoon a
committee of three members of the Bar
waited upon the Prothonotary's clerk and re
quested that the place of meeting be changed
to some oflke where all the members of the
Bar could attend. This request was acceded
to and the place of meeting changed to the
Arbitration Room. At the time specified
almost every member of the Bar in active
practice was present. An organization was
effected by selecting Hon. A. J. Colborn as
president, and S. U Trent and If. S. F.nds-
ley as secretaries of thc meeting. The ob
ject of the meeting was briefly stated when
W. H. Koontz Ksq., offered a set of resolu
tions highly complimentary to Judge Hall
and that as a mark of respect for his "integ
rity, impartiality and ability" a banductbe
tendered him by the members of the Bar. Af-
some few remarks by different members of
the Bar. diirinis which one of them said that
Judge Hall had requested him to get up a
banquet or demonstration of some kind in
his honor at the expiration of his term of of
fiee, thc resolutions were voted upon.
;The ayes and nays being called resulted
as follows:
Ayes. Nats.
F. J. Kooser, A. II. Coffroth,
H. F. Schell, .Ins. U. Pugh,
J. R. Edie, W. H. Kupple,

Total, 9. " M. J. Pritts,

. Total, 12.
Upon the vote being announced one of
the gentlemen who voted aye "sprang to
his feet" and moved tliat those in favor of
a banquet should adjourn to Koontz's office
forthwith. It was quietly suggested that if
the gentlemen would wait a moment nntil
the meeting was adjourned they could have
the use of the Arbitration Room. On nio
iton, the meeting then adjourned. It is but
just to the members of the Bar who voted
against the resolution to say that their reason
for so doing was that they could not endorse
Judge Hall as a Judge; and that his course
as a politician did not enter into the matter,
as has been alleged.

Tho Lock Harcn Ikmormt imparts tbaful
owing interesting piece of information for
the farmers: "It is a matter of more than
common interest to the farmer readers of
t he Veiitocrat to learn that there i in exist
ence and in full force a statu to of the Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania by a knowledge
of which many a dollar may be saved by
them. It is to the effect that any person
who shall transplant to the side of the pub
lic highway on bis own premises any fruit,
shade or forest tree of suitable size, shall be
allowed by the supervisor, when the Toads
j run through or adjoin cultivated fields, an
abatement on his road tax of one dollar for
j every four trees set out. The trees must
I however, be set out the year previous before
the allowance will bo granted, and they
must be alive and well protected. This law
was enacted May 2d, 1879, and deserves the
widest publicity.
