We clip the following item from
th8t. M.try's Gazette:
We are informed that on Saturdy
last at the tannery at Sterling a terri
ble accident happened which caused
the death of James Clark, a brother
of oue of the owners of the tannery.
He was grinding bark at thn time,
when hy some menns he bcame en
tangled in the machinery which lifted
him up over the hopper and hi feet
getting into it litterully ground them
both off. lie lived but a short time
after the accident occurred. The re
mains were brought to this place on
Tuesday lust for burial.
Quite an excitement wa occasioned
on yesterday evening by the report
that Mr. Lawrence Fochtman had
shot bis wife. The occurrence took
pfare on the street near the residence
of the mother of tlio woman. Mr.
Fochtman, it veeins, went to the resi
dence of hi mother-in-law and inquir
ed f r his wife. He was informed that
she had gone to the store. He imme
d'm te It started toward the' stnrj;, and
on the road met his wife. It is alleged
be then drew a revolver and fired four
.shots at htr, two of thcra taking ef
fect, one in the arm, and one in the
hand. The injuries sustained are not
of a serious nature. FochtmaH imme
diately fled, and thus far, ha evaded
arrest.
Michael Flinn, who lias been work
ing at Emery' camp, for some months
past, until recently, came to St. Mary'
to stop until "driving" time He suf
fers with temporary, insanity. On
Monday last, alter having taken sever
ni nrings ne ret ren to nen, as the
landlord supposed, but shortly af r
Vfcird he jumped out of the window to
the sidewalk, a distance of ahout twen
ty-five feet. His ankle was badly in
jured. We are informed that about a
year ago he jumped from the uppe
story of the rJk. hotel, in this place,
and also, we are informed, made a leap
of forty feet in Lock Haven some time
ago. Hitherto iu hia perilous feats he
lias sustained no injury. He is an in
offensive mail, and most of tlio time
appear to he perfectly rational. His
friends should take some precautions
to prevent him from exercising his
proclivities for jumping, a he may do
himself an injury which will be fata;
to us enect.
The Oil City Derrick say that
Mr. E. Fuller, a few days since, was
ranht in the band wheel of the en
cine at hi well, on the flata, and
thrown with such force as to render
liim insensible. Ha received several
rut about his head and thee, front
which the blood flowed freelt.

WILL THERE B WAR?
The wi iron EugTaxJ U of a
tartling character and indicate thM
war may he imminent, aniens theEng
lish authorities moderate their torn
considerably. They appear all at once
to have become convinced that our
claim for loss caused hr their
cruiser, tailing under the Confederate
flag.are alarming in extent.and will be
insisted upon before the Genera Board
of Arbitrators. There must be an
impression also, that those claim are
likely to be allowed, in which event
Engnland'a debt will be sud lenly ami
enormously enlarged. The rumors
come thick ant fast that the press.Gov
erument, and the people unite in a de
mand that the Washington Treaty
shall be annulled, or that our claim
for damages shall be modified. This
appear like idiocy on the part of Eng.
land, for if our claims are just, they
ought to be paid, and if unjust, there
U not much probability of their beii g
allowed by the arbitrators. Preside!.
Grant is firm, and insist thnt th
Geueva confereuce i aimilar in it na
ture to a court of equity, and that we
have the manifest right to make what
ever claim for damages we please.
It . is for the court alone, to decide
upon their justice The eouutry
will sustain the President in this view,
at all hazards, and , England ruiwt
abida hy the provisions of the Wash
ington treaty, 'or submit the question
between us to that more terrible alter
native the arbitrament of the (word.
With such a possible prospect before
us, it becomes us to examine well into
our position and our ability to cope
wuu such a formidable power ae Great
Britain. Iu this connection we re
mark first, that it was made public on
ly a few day ago, that no less than
fifty-three of our war vessels, among
them several monitor and iron clad
are ready to go to sea at once. Em-
laud' commerce would, in a brief
time be swept from the ocean, and her
p iwer would be crippled at single
blow. Canada would doubtless fur
nish the battle grouuds for the land
forces, whilst "Ould Ireland" wouid
make a bold strike for independence.
But we desist ; all good citizen would
adly deplore a war with Eugtand, a-
it wui(i oe terrible in its results. Y
trust that the roused British lion will
yet fiud it wise to submit to peaceful
arbitration. Pittsburgh QuteUa.
The following in regard to theroatJ
ter occurs in the Queen speech :
The arbitrator appointed pursuant
to the treaty of ashington for the
purpose of amicably settling the Ala
bama claims held their first meeting
in Genrva. Base were laid before the
arbitrators in behalf of each party to
the treaty. Iu the case so submitted
by the United State large claim are
Deluded which are understood ou uiv
part not to be within the province of
he arbitrators. On thi subject I have
caused a friendly communication to
be made to the Government of the
United State. The Etmierorof Ger
many has undertaken to arbitrate on
the Sau Juan watet boundary, and the
ae ot the two governments have
been presented to his Imperial Majesty.
The Commission to sit at Washington
has been apjMiiuted and is in session.
the provisions of the treaty which re
quire the consent of the Parliament of
the Dominion of Cauada await it as

A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
Tlio "Presidential year" Is always a
readlnpt year with the American people.
It imposes extraordinary duties on Jour
nals lYom which the people mav usual
ly expect, not only tbi) news of Ihe day,
but (ntelllirent discussion of public ques
tions and enunciation of opinions. While
this is trne in a ireneral sense the year lie
fore lis Is likelv, 1" a political sense, to be
one of unusual i hitcrest; tlio Democratic
party Is breaking; up, and thereareinlica
tioni of alliance and purposes ahogethcr
novel In our politics. The elections of the
pat year have resulted in almost an un
oroken seritis of Republican victories,
tiencral Oi-ants administration has receiv
ed the nnqulvncal Indorsement of the
American people; and there is everv In
dication now that, as the Republican can
didate, he will lie re-eleeted Protid- nt. As
an Independent Republican Paper the
C0MMF.11CIAL will in Ihe future, as in tlio
past, render an undeviatinir supoort to
Republican Principles, holdiiiK that the
good of the Republic requires that the
(lovernment should remain in the hands
of the party that t-aved It in the (treat nic
er desth st'rusrirlc In the future as In tho
past it will speak Its own views regarding
men and m asures, hnldina that fhronuh
free discussion only can safe Conclusions
be reached and the Independence of the
prei-s preerved. In this rcirard we enn
say simply thnt the Commkhciai. will bo
true to itself and Its established character,
Aa a Newspaper, nothing will be spared
to maintain lbs msillon which the Com
mkiiciai. has always held among the lead
ing Journals of the tlav, for news enter
prise as well as for independent opinions.
This year, at home and abroad, will be
full of interost. European politics are
nirl luted, and the American render will
likely II nd inn. h in them to attract his at
tention. At homo all is life and pii-lt.
Railroads are bclii'i constructed every
where; now projects are almost daily pro
claimed; population is increasing; i.ter
