The Greenback party uf'this borough met
with a serious injury the latter part ot last
week iu the person of its only member here,
Mr. Charles F. Walker. Mr. W. was engaged
on a piece of work in the alley between the
Ctntral hotel and Benford's grocery, and the
ground being as slipery as some of his own
linaucial notions, his feet flew from under
him and he came down on his side with
i-Ui h force as to iIIotc the shoulder bone.
Wc but to chronicle his siieedv recovery.
Edward, a son of Mr. Henry F. Knejer,
1 who is employed at the rolling mill at
Johnstown, running a stationary engine, met
with a severe and what mjghl have been a
fatal accident on Thursday last. While at
work about his engine his clothing caught
fire from a torch, and his entire body was
envelnlied in dames
He was burned
w,.rtiv ahmit the thiidis and lower nurt of
his body, ami would undoubtedly have been
burned to death, h. t.l not his fellow work
men come promptly to his assistai-ce.
A young son ot of Mr. J. F. Beacliy, aged
about fifteen vears, met. with a serious acci-
Soti.erset v taml.na Raiimad; ami it bus a
saw mill iu ojh ration at Sprueeiown. S nue
eiht ll.ousHtid logs -pine. Iieml.s k and
ouk are now in tlie river ami will be Moated
to tbe dam al the earliest oportuniiy. The
dam and boom are nnw located about two
miles MUith of Spriicetown. The breast of
the'dam is four hundred feet wide. The firm
employs 50 to 70 m n, the number varying
with the changing conditions of business.
fTii.t Thkt Go. For a few years past a
number of our most worthy younir men
have left this (.lace to seek their fortunes
elsewhere, and all appear well aate-ficd
These young men are full of enterprise,
energy and pluck, and their excuse for leav
ing is that there are no inducements held
out for young men to advance. Being gen
erally poor they are unable to undertake any
new enterprise, and in their vocation they
are frequently superceded in positions by
ontide influences and not merit, whirh dis
courages them and they leave. We notice
among nnr young men that there is again
feeling tnseek other places where their merit
will be reropbixed. With such movements
Sonierw t will lose her best mrchanics, and
new enterprises will he postponed to the far
future. There should be an effort made to
keep these yonng men here to help build up
the town. They are more liable to arrom-p!l-h
this than strangers Flevate them to
higher positions in workshops, acrnrdin? to
their merits, in place of superceding them
by strangers who have scarcely seen a
workship, and are placed in positions on
f-count of their financial influence. Snch a t
ovement would give greater encourage
ment to the yonng men, and thev w-nld
frikpoiit and erect new enterprises What
Somerset need is nisi'iifartnries. For these
we must depend upon the yonng men to
take hold of, and with a little enennraee
ment f the capitalists we will be the (miners
of better nns-haidi-s and numerous new en
terprises Give onr tuechxnic a chance,
and we will soon find that Somerset has as
capable workmen to conduct large factories
of any kind. a stir other town. What they
do not nin'er-isnd they will aptly learn in a
short time, and thev will become educated
in tbe ditTereiit brstichm of tride, and

It is raid that the region of country em
bracing the waters of tbe Yough ai'd Cheat
River was the best hunting ground in the
Alleghenies." It streams abounded in lish,
and the wooded hills atroruetl immense
, .
came intotheTurkevfoot region from Rhode
Island about tbe year I60O, which we
may mention in the future. It is an estab
lished fact that in those early days a party
of Dtinkard settled on what is known as
the Dunkard Bottom, but were murdered
by tbe Indians with the exception of one
man. who had returned to the eastern part
of the State before the massacre.
Among the names who figured in eerly
history of this region we Cud that of Green
and Morgan. There were three generations of
Green who lived u ml' died near the Six Po;v
lars. where there is an old grave yard con
taining K-rhaps 150 to 200 graves. This
place is situated 011 the hunks of the Cas
seliuan (Little Crossing), t ear where the
village of Harnedsville now stands. Fifty
six years ago the last grave was dug in this
grave yard by the late John Ilanna and a
Mr. Ankeny for Richard Green.
While about completing the grave Messrs.
Hanna and Ankeny discovered what seem
ed to lie the bone of a giant. The skeleton
was much larger than thenea grave, which
was a large one. A very large skull was
imbedded in a heavy tuft of jet black hair.
The mould surrounding the bones indicat
ed the body to have !cen w raped in a blan
ket of course striped materia!, and had been
enclosed iu a rude votiiii which was almost
entirely decayed; hail been put together with
large wrought iron nails. Mr Haiinataid
that Jacob Hartzetl, who was then the old
est inhabitant of this section, and who, if
now living, would be about 155 years old,
said he had never known of any man be
ing buried in that particular spot.
Tb murder of John Green d.KSiliotap

fare. Win. Morgan and John Green had
settled near Cheat Riven Morgan, who was
the Indian killer, lived in the Dunkard Ix.t-
toin, now owned I.y tlie rairtaxes. .loom
the ear 17H3 the Indians tilted out an expe
dition ul the uh of Fishing creek, on the
Ohio River, ci d started toward Cheat river
to munlcr their hated enemy, Morgan. Ar
riving in 'he t heat river country, the It !i
ans mist.H.K their mute; passing down
Green's run thev came within hearing of a
man named Lewis, who was making rails
for Green. They shot Lewis, and captured
Green's rifle wlTich Lewis had in the wissls
with him. The Indians hastened to Green's
home; one of his little duwhtcrs. who was
outside, started to run; she was fired upon hv
the Indians, and wounded h.T in the hand
The little girl had presence of mind to fall
down; putting her bloody hand over her
head and face she lay tlicre until the Indians
left. Green was soon dispatched and his
wife and two half grown daughters made
prisoners. Just before leaving one of the
Indians stepped to the side of the litthv
wounded girl, and seeing the bhsxl on her
head and face left her tor dead. After the
Indians left she made her way to Cheat
river, where David Morgan now lives. A
man named Butler hearing her cries, she
was taken acr.s the river, cared for. grew
up, and married a man named Friend.
Some of her descendants are now living in
Turkevfimt and some near Friendville, Md.
Mrs. Green was exchanged after captivity of
a year or more and married a man named
Moore. After Moore's death she married a
man named Spnrgin. Mrs. Green and her
three husbands are buried near the spot
where Lewis was shot.
After the defeat of the Indians by Antho
ny Wayne ("Mad Anthony") and the treaty
of 1795 was made, the two daughters of
Green Were found the conditions of the
treaty being that all captives should be set
at liberty. The two Miss Greens were mar
ried to two French tradt rs. The girls wish
ing to return home, Elizabeth Green's hus
band, not wishing to quit his pursuits, sold
his wife to a soldier named Johnson, who
returned home with and married her ac
cording to the laws of the whites. Sarah
Green returned home with her husband, re
maining a short time with her mother.
Thev sold their interest in the Oreen estate
and returned to the Indians. Doubtless
some of her descendants are now roaming
among the foothills of the Rocky Moun
tains. Mac.

Dttvr Sir .-In your issue of January 2.
1,-W.t, I notice the statement by you that
Prohibition is not working well in Kansas,
and that more ermiis to sell li.pi-.r were
granted during the first year of prohibition
than the year preceding iL
It is boldly asserted that there is more
liquor drank, made and sold in Kansas than
before the a mend men t was adopted. This
assertion is not only without proof, but
utterly at variance with indispu able facts.
F.x-Goveroor Robinson stated in a speech
at Topeka, that from the best information
he could get there were more government
jicriuils to sell liquor issued this year than
two years ago. What are the facts? Simply
these: In 10 there were in the state, be
sides many unlicensed places. 1,832 licensed
dram sho, 311 breweries, 30 wholesale
liquor establishments and two distilleries,
making a total of not less than two thousand
places where liquor was made and sold.
To-dav there is not a distillery nor a whole
sale liquor house in the State, and there are
only eight or nine breweries. K. G. Dunn
A Co., of Chicago, who have had their
advertising agents all through the State,
report that there are 336 places where liquor
is sold in Kansas. These are all their
detectives have been able to find, after the
closest scrutiny.
The Collector of Internal Revenue says
there were issued Irotn May 1st to June l th
1. 8i, (the commencement of the government
tax year), 1.14M retail jiermits to sell liquors;
4110 of these were taken out by druggists,
authorized to sell for the excepted purrees.
This would leave 74 permits for saha.n
purpiwes. But a large number of these
have since been surrendered, because they
have been found to be practically won bless,
owing to the enforcement of the law. We
do not believe five hundred places can be
found in the State where liquor is openly
sold in. violation of the law. This would be
a reduction of nearly three-fourths of tbe
drink trade iu Kansas.
Rev. A. M. Richardson.
Lawrem e, Kansas, Xov. 11. 1AS2.
The above facts are given by a resident of
Kansas, and whose integritv, to the best of
my knowledge, has never been disputed.
The assertion that more permits to sell
liquor are granted under prohibition than
under the license law, proves t-o much.
If the statement were true, then the highest
wisdom in the liquor fraternity would be to
work for prohibition. For them to oppose
a measure that increases their gain, would
be consummate folly. Now Mr. Editor, will
you please publish the above in justice to
all concerned, and oblige, yours truly,
A. S. BAt-MOABD IB.
Like many tithergond men our Reverend
friend has permitted his tea! to outrun his
discretion, and he does us a grave wrong,
and one calculated to create an injurious
impression, in the assertion "I notice the
statement by you that prohibition is not
working well in Kansas True, we made
the statement, but we gave Gov Click as
o ir authority for the statistics which onr
friend undertakes to contradict, and in
omitting that fact he makes us mpousihle
fir matters of which we have no personal
knowledge. We append this note to his
communication " iu justice to all con
cerned." Ed.-

Daring the war the gentleman of black
cloth and whita neck tie making this prayer
had not much love for the Union or the
"Boys in Blue." He then resided in
Maryland, and for bis disloyal ami rebel
u iterances was amestea and given quarters
in Fort Lafayette. But now that the war is
over and the Democratic party iu power,

sentiments. Such a prayer is blasphemous
to G.al, disgraceful to Christianity, and an
insult to the Christian people ot the Com
monwealth. The clergy of this city had to
be passed by, and this reverend gentleman
brought from Lebanon ; he is a man of dirty
nanus, if not of evil heart. The Members
will not Ut.d another such prayer, without
resenting it on the fi.ior of the House. Ti e !
Republicans are unanimous in their con
deuitiatioii, and all the honest and better
thinking Dciiiocr.iuj condemn and disap.
prove it. I wish the Independent Republi
cans of the State, and t.iHtially those of
your county, could be here and witness the
change which they brought about iu the
Legislature and the administration, from
Governor down 10 the lowest employe. I
1 think they wouid be satisfied and content
in the future with voting with the puny of
principles, the party that saved the country,
the only party of true and lasting reform."

Almighty God our Heavemy Father, we
offer Thee thanks for Thy gracious provi
dence that has protected and guarded us
through the interesting and impressive
ceremonies of yesterday. We thank Thee
that in health and stiength Tor duty we are
privileged to assemble in this house this
morning, and that Thy mere y and jieace is
manifested to this Commonwealth in the
inauguration of a citizen, coming iu hi
simplicity to preside over the Slate and us
destinies. We thank Thee that we assembled
yesterday and that we assemble to day
without fear ol destiuctrou from instruments
of death, but thai the citizen, coutideiil iu
his security, assembled with his fellow
citizens to engage iu the solemn anu im
pressive ceremonies which were so success
fully and triumphantly completed. We
thank Thee, God, that the citizen now is in
the ascendent, and that no longer we fear
the ii tlueiice of tbe military, and of war
and deaUi. Be pleased, oh God, to bless us
and our nation ; and grant that the citizen
may bold his position in the civil service
of this nation for many years to come, and
that peace and prosperity may attend ui in
all things to the honor of Thy name, and
the religion of our Lord Jesus ChrUt.

The above report shows that both rooms
of our sch.H.l are too much crowded to do
the best possible work. Nevertheless, it also
shows that there is no lack of interest on our
part.
I am glad to say that one of our directors
(Dr. Mountain), has paid us a visit this
month, and has given us words of encour
agement, for which we ai a school feel
thankful. On the other hand I feel sorry to
say that not a single visit has been paid us
by our worthy citizens. The citizens seem
to forget that the success of a teacher and
school depends' greatly on the co-0ration
of the parents.- While we have no reason to
complain, and feel confident that nnrsch.ai!
is in good working order, yet we would be
glad to have directors and parents call and
see us. -
