The following items were also taken
from thaUfaper:
Seven boys were arrested and taken

being in the party that caught and

On last SalurJay Win. Watcrson,
of Antwerp, whilst working on n der
rick on tho Qilger farm, Central City,
fell to the ground, a distance of sixty
three feet, and was bndly bruised. It
is almost a miracle that ho was not
killed. Under the care of Dr. G. W.
Weaver he is getting along well, and
to-day, Tuesday, hopes ure entertained
for his recovery.
- A. P. Totter and Barney McCann,
of Clarion township, were riding out
of town last Saturday evening in a
buggy, and near , the seminary the
shafts of the buggy came loose where
it fastens to the axel, and the buggy
was upset. McCann was thrown out
violently and had one arm broken be
low the elbow.
A most brutal affair occurred at
Foxburg, on Tuesday of lost week.
Two men uudcr the inflneuce of liquor
commenced fighting, nod one bit the
other's nose off. The man who did
this inhuman deed i named Owens.
Constable Dcarolph, of Petersburg,
was sent for and went down, but the
offender had escaped across the river.
The old man who lust his nose is lior
riby disfigured, and is lying in a criti
cal condition.
Two of Sheriff JoIiiisdu's prisoners,
Burk and Porter, made their escape
one night last week by cutting a hole
in the ceiling f their cell, and getting
into the attic, from where they came
down stairs and left for parts unknown.
Until a new jail is completed, there is
not much use in committing prisoners,
.as the old jail is only a temptation
for prisoners to run nway ; whereas if
they wero not imprisoned they
might stay around till court, when
they could be caught and tried.
The following items arc taken
from tho Venango Citizen :
Georgo Stevens, of Kane City, this
County, was drowned in the Alle
gheny river, at the mouth of Two Mile
Hun, oil Monday afternoon June 23d,
at three o'clock. lie had been at
work on the Galloway Farm, and with
two comnadieus went to tho river to
batho. His fricuds went across the
river but he refused to accompany
them, not being an expert swimmer.
When they returned Stevens was no
where to be found, and his compan
ions presumed that ho was hiding
from them. After looking around for
uomo timo his body was seen lying at
tlte bottom of the river in about six
feet of water. An alarm was given
and men at work at Capt. Grant's
brick yard, near by, hastened to the
river, and soon brought the body on
shore. Stevens was an industrious
young man, of temperate habits,
and leaves a wife and two children to
mourn his untimely death. Coroner
Corbett empanneled a jury aod held
an inquest on the body. The jury
returned a verdict of accidental drown
ing. bam. Iiicscr,' lato of Oil City, is
proprietor of a Dry Goods store on
13tb St., where he is at present clos
ing out his stock. Patrick Hanlon is
a stone mason, of good character, and
is engaged at Oil City. Last Monday
morning Ilanlou went to Riesers
tore, took the latter by the collor,
jerked him out into the street, and,
with a raw-hide, severely whipped
him. The cause of this actiou en the
part of Hanlon is given as follows.
On Saturday Mrs. Ilaulon purchased
some colico at liieser's store, but did
not receive as many yards as she paid
for. She returned the calico and asked
to have the error corrected, ltieser re
fused in rather an einphatio manner.
The lady returned and had the goods
measured by a third party, and with
a lady friend returned to Kisser's aod
again asked him to make, the correc
tion. At this Samuel waxed wroth
and used vile language in connection
with tho lady's name. For this un
gentleiuanly language Ilaulon warm
ed Lis jacket.
wasn't "acquainted with him." Han
lon said he would "introduce himself,"
and he did. Sam. knows him by
sight now.
On Saturday morning last, an em.
ployee on the railroad, narupd Pat
rick Riley, a native of Ireland, and
but recently from Brooklyn, N. Y.,
was drowned in Red Bank creek at
Coder's dam, below town. We are
informed that Riley had been drink
ing for several days, but that en the
morning of the day mentioned he had
signified his intentiou of going to work,
having in a measuro become sober.
Before going to work he went to the
creek to bathe, and while iu the wa
ter, from some cause he was drowned.
Although in the water but a few min
utes all efforts to bring him to were
unavailing. He leaves a wUo and
two children in Brooklyn. Brook

Yesterday afternoon, during tho
heavy thunder storm which passed
over this place, a bolt of lightning
struck and killed thrco colts in an
open field on the Taylor farm, Veruou
township, about two miles west of this
city. There were ten colts in the field
at tho tiaic, one two year old and two
yearlings being instantly killed. The
colts were the property of Mr. Mel
nylor, of Fredonia, N. Y. Tho two year
old was a handsome Hambel Ionian,
reccutlv boucht bv Mr. Taylor in
Urange County, JSew York, and
brought lie re about two weeks ago.
The colts wero worth over one thou
sand dollars, and would readily have
sold for more money. Meadville Re
publican. The Erie Dhpatch gives the fol
lowing interesting incident :
A lew days since a German woman,
a recent arrival here, had some tran
sactions with a denier in second-hand
goods, and in part pay received a five
dollur bill. It was green but not a
regular greeuback, and upon a subse
quent examination of the face, it prov
ed to be a Crawford county bill.
These, somo time since, were worth
about thirty cents cu tho dollar, and
it probably is worth less than that at
present. The woman was advised ns
to the worthlessness of tho kill and
took it back, but the dealer deniod it
and professed to know nothing about
it, and the woman could get no satis
faction. Yesterday, a rntletnan
whose visit boded business, appeared
at the dealer's establishment, asked
for a cent's worth of pins and threw
down the $5 Crawford bill in payment.
The dealer looked at it, then at the visi
tor's face, and without any porlcy
drew a $5 greenback out of his poeket,
picked up tho Crawford bill and hand
ed the greenback to his visitor. The.
latter didn t want to get any pins,
and the dealer saved himself some lit
tle trouble by being so prompt in re
deeming tho worthier scrip, as, but
for that, he would have been arrasted
for fraud-within fifteen minutes of tho
time. Honesty is the best policy.
The Philadulphians are very do
sirous of capturing the capital of
Pennsylvania and locating it in Fre
mont Park, and they think they see
their chance in the enlargement of the
numbers in the two houses of the Leg
islature. A correspondent of tho
Philadelphia Age writes :
"Tho Constitutional Convention
having determined by a very decisivo
vote, or several decisive votes, to in
crease tho number of Senators to fifty,
and the number of Representatives to
nno hundred and fifty-two, it is certain
that if the new Constitution be adopt
ed, theso numbers will constitute our
State Legislative bodies in future.
And as this increase of members in
volves the' building of a now State
Capitol, these questions naturally fol
low : Whcro snail that building be
erected ? Ought the Convention to fix
the future seat of Government, or
rather to designate it, and let the peo
ple pass the matter iu voting on the
new Constitution ? To the first of these
questions I unhesitntiugly answer
in Philadolphia. Tho second I ans
wer as clearly in the affirmative."
The Democratic Primary election
in this borough on Saturday last creat
ed considerable stir and tho friends of
tho several candidates worked like
beavers. Some bad blood was dis
played during the course of the after
noon caused by the handing in to the
judges, by a member of the ring, of a
list of persons, who were required to
pledge themselves to support the tick
et nominated. Among the li&t was
the name of that democratic vete'ran,
Col. V. T. Alexander, aud to have
his democracy disputed, very natural
ly aroused the wrath of tho Col., and
his friends. Some loud talk and plain
language was the result. Clarion lie
publican. Says tho Sharpsvillo Advertiser :
Thero is a small lied of soft hematite
ore in Lawrence county, owned by a
farmer whose acres surround it.
This farmer has repaired an old six
foot bosh charcoal furnace, and makes
excellent iron on the spot, at a cost
of from $10 to $13 per ton, and from
three to six tens per day. His boys
