LA MOUNTAINE'S- TERRIBLE DEATH.
—The following
. detaile of the detith of
the aeronaut, La
. Mountaine, at lonia,
Michigan, are printed in the Chicago
Times of Monday :
A heavy squaw of wind delayed the as
cension for three hours, but at the end of
that time the air became perfectly calm.
Under the direction of the professor the
balloon was got into position, and its in
flation cemmeneed, - The canvas Was soon
filled and loomed op nearly seventy-five
feet high. The 'basket was a willow one,
of a size sufficient to hold one person com
fortably. It was attached to the balloon
by six or eight long ropes, which were
fastened e t t the top to a, round piece of
wood, some two or three feet in diameter.
The ropes were in no mapper fastened to
gether betweeu the top and the basket.—
As each piece was one hundred feet long,
it seemed even to, the inexperienced eye
that there should have been some webb-
ing or net work, at least, over the bag, or
bulge of the canvass. It was also notic
ed that the ropes were unevenly distribu
ted, three or four in a comparative cluster
leaving the other strandi far apart. Eve
rvthiog being -in readiness, the words,
"Let her go," were given, and the air-ship
darted 11r/with great rapidity, while the
daring aeronaut waved his bat to the un
easy, uncertain multitude who almost
breathlessly and in silence watched his
flight. Immediately upon leaving the
ground the mouth of the canvass, began
to flap around with great violence. When
fully a half mile from the earth, and when
the whole structnre looked no larger than
a hogshead, the balloon slipped between
the ropes and was instantly inverted.—
The car and its occupant dropped like a
shot, and when the ropes were pulled taut
the round piece of wood before alluded to
was torn from 'the canvass. . With the
most terrific velocity the unfortunate man
descended, clinging to the basket. That
he was conscious was evident from. his
struggles. With all the intensity of a
life with but one chance, he strove to raise
the basket above him, evidently hoping
to use it as a parachute. He succeeded
in .his object, but when about one hundred
feet high he lossed his hold, .folded his
hands and arms before his face, and his
heavy thud.. Then ensued a panic and
uproar in the crowded multitude which is
indescribable. Women fainted ; strong
men wept, and, to add to the confusion,
the canvass carpe flying over the'crowd
like a huge bird. Some one cried out to
get from the way as it would fall with a
crushing force. Then the cry was taken
up, and a general hash. was made for saf
ety, in which many were more or less in
jured. La Mountaine was crushed to a
literal pulp; Not a sign of motion or
life was visible when he was reached. A
medical examination diselokd die fact
'that hardly a whale bone was left. Many
were ground and splintered to powder.--
His jaws fell'upon his arms and were pul
verized. The blood • spurted from his
month and ears. The corpse was laid out,
and placed on the. public square, where it
was viewed by thousands dUring the after
noon, and was sent to his home at Ilrpok
lyn, Mich., on the following day.
Kn 14= NO MuftPEß.—The Walworth
2ase seems t,o estabijsh in the opinion of
some people (says the Phila, Inquirer) a
principal of very wide application. Wal
worth's only excuse could have been that
he murdered his futher in order to pre
vent the latter from murdering his moth
er. Tha father had done nothing more
than threaten, although those throats were
made in a mit brutal and indecent way.
The senior Walworth had really done
nothing in execution of his threats, which
might have been considered bombast. lie
was not killed by his son flagrante delietu ;
hut on the theory that thereafter he might
commit the crime. A principle like this
would justify many murders, upon the as
sumption that the person killed might
commit murder some time thereafter if-he
should have been allowed to live.
This doctrine. seems to have got out as
far as West Virginia, and prevails in
Wheeling. .1p that place last week a man
was killed by another, they being rivals
to the hand of a certain lady. The per
son who was killed is said to have had let
ters upon his body, in which he declared
that he would kill the lady and then kill
himself. He did not attempt the first
crime, and was relieved of the necessity
of committing suicide by his enemy. The
latter, a West Vir g inia coroner's jury says,
was fully justified'in killing the man, be
cause that man might have intended to
kill smuebody else. Doctrines like the.te
are the most, modern improvement in the
art of "making killing ;to murder."
gerThe remains'of about 350 confed
erate soldiers from the battle-Seld of Get
tysburg were recently taken to Baltimore
over the Northern Central railway. Near
ly all the dead were destined for Rich
mond. These remains (with the exception
of a few to be brought on next fall) com
prise the remnant of the confederate dead
at Gettysburg, the entire number buried
there having been about 3,400.
04L.Seience, it is said, has
,concluded
that the cholera is only propagated, where
uneleanline-s prevails, by the excremental
fluids of persons afflicted with tbe disea.se.

infectauts will stamp it out. It can make

ittEMVe call special attention to assign
e_'3 sale of buggies, carriages, etc. by Geo.
Middour, in to-day's paper. They are
mostly new and put up in good style and
of the best material.
Bustles are at last out of date, and
the more slender and willowly the figure

APPOINTED.—Hon. John Cessna has
nominated Mr. George D. Shively, son of
Peter Shively, gsq.. of Fairfield, as a Ca
det at West point for the Seventeenth Con
gressional District of Pennsylvania. The
examination will take place in August.
CANNED FRUITS.-It will be seen that
our neighbor Reid has now a full line of
the different kinds of canned fruits, which
persons can get as cheap if not cheaper
than by purchasing and preparing the
articles. He has made arrangements by
which he will be regularly supplied.
FINE WHEAT.—Several stalks of beard
ed wheat taken from a field of Mr. Geo.
Balsley, has been left at this office.—
The heads are from six to seven inches
long and well filled. We understand Mr.
B's crop was one of the finest harvested
fur years.
.The attention of our worthy Coun
cil is again called to the condition of our
town alleys, or some of them at least.—
Could not arrangements be made with
some near-at-hand farmer, ,to cleanse them
at least once in twelve months ? As a com
post it would equal the best barn-yard am
nure. Other accumulations of rubbish
should be removed by the parties deposit
ing it in alleys or they should be required
to pay a fine.
Cite The examination in the public
schools. last week, closed with a trial
Prot Bentz's class in Geometry, which
passed a very thorough and satisfactory
examination, creditable alike to teacher
and pupils.
At the close, Prof. B. on behalf of the
scholars, presented Miss Matthews, his as
sistant, with a very handsome writing desk,
a testimonial of their attadhment to her.—
It was received by Miss M., with some
appropriate and be4utiral remarks.
On Tuesday evening we had the pleas-
ure of being 'present an entertainment I I
given by those of the pupils connected
with the high school department, which
by far surpassed auything of the kind
betbre witnessed in our toiyn. The sever
al parts were most admirably- performed
and highly creditable to all concerned, a
more extended notice 9f which we propose
to give in our next issue.
This (Thursday) evening a similar en

ORITIOGRApHY IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL. —
Spelling is one of the few school studies
in which the teacher can report definitely
in regard to the progress of his pupils.—
At the beginning of the term that has
just closed, the teachet of the Grammar
School gave his pupils a list of 20 com
mon words to spell, corrected the papers
himself, and preserved the same, without
letting the scholars know what words they
had missed, or giving them any_idea that
the same list would be spelled at the close
of the term. The following is the result
so far as concerns those pupils who were
present at both examinations. The figures
indie4te the number or words missed:

present, only one of which, Jesse 011er,
spelled every word. At the close of school
24 were present, of which number 6 were
perfect, Laura Funk in addition the "ANC
named above. It is the hope of their
teacher, that the scholars of the Grammar
School will strive next term to present a
still better record in the very important
art of correct spelling. • Who will, try ?

HEPSIDAM, MIDSCHER, July 10, '73.
Mr. Editor:—Your readers may won
der why the last frivolous communication,
1872. 1873
Oct. July
6 0
rom emperancev
signed Geo. B. Johnston, was not answer
ed sooner. The reason, wby a reply. to
the "yelping of an insignificant spaniel,"
was not immediately made at that time,
was because Hepsidam was terra incognit
to to me. I therefore concluded to ex
plore every nook and corner of it, wherev
er I thought there•might be a new school
bell, with the names of the Hepsidam
school directors cast upon it. I saw all
the school buildings in Hepsidam, was
careful to examine the bells, to see how
many could be tbund with School Board
inscribed upon them. In all Hepsidam,
I could not find the names of any School
Directors cast on their bells, to show what
school houses they had built and no such
miserable egotistic inscriptions as President,
Treasurer and Secretary, to designate to
future generations what position they fill
ed in the Board. I think it is therefore;
not "always mistomary," to inscribe the
names of those upon belie who are "set in
authority," as the whanidoodle correspon
dent would have, the people believe.

In a former communication I informed
your readers that Hepsidam is a horrible
place, to which the wbangdoodle and roar,
big lions have chased the "Feigned Brave
Knight." Everything having been per
fxtly quiet along the whole line of bat
tle, from Temperanceville where, the
whangdoodle mo irneth, for the School
Board to Waynesboro' where the lion
roareth ; and nothing having been heard
from the Hepsidam correspondent, for a
long time, fears were entertained, as to his
personal safety, as the country is known
to be infested with many roaring lions,
who try to catch their prey by their cun
ning. Whenever I have occasion to speak
of the School Board, I would have the
readers of the RECORD understand dis
knctly, that I mean no other Directors
Elan those who are in perpetual session on
the bell, issuing bonds bearing interest at
seven per cent. for the people to pay
Correspondent says "I make cowardly as
saults upon the honorable Board of School
Directors, like a midnight assassin," but
does not say anything about the terrible
assault made on some of them by the peo
ple about the last of March in broad day
light. Why did he not whine for them
'and speak of "crushed hopes?" for surely
this was not made by one "cowardly mid
night assassin" but was a popular verdict
rendered by the people, declaring that
those who have made a public debt of
neatly twelve thousand dollars, shall not
be members of the School Board. Be as
sured correspondent that the people will
continue to commit such assaults until,
there will be nothing left. of the old Board
but, their famous hieroglyphics on their
bell. Correspondent says there is not ev
en a "spark of truth" in what I say. If
be be a man of truth then the readers
must infer, that he does not, always, act
upon truthful principles, for well do they
remember that he said in his notorious
"whangdoodle story," that he would not
deign to reply to anything I might say.—
The public shall now decide whether he
told the truth or not. Remember the old
saying, Geo., "charity always begins at
home." Make a personal application of
this, and then, examine the weak links in
your own composition; and you will have
enough to do, for the people are thejudg
es in this matter. "A. hint to the wise is
sufficient." It seems Goo. has shed ma
ny copious crocodile tears, of "mingled
feelings of pity and contempt," for me;
but it is natural for a certain species of
creation to shed tears of pi.f e y over a man
before attempting to destroy him. 'I am
highly gratified to have the gentleman's
profound . sympathy ; but t must remind
him tgat, in al! his .attempts to justify
the School Board, before the people, he
has signally failed, to obtain their approv
al. He says, I intimate that his produc
tions are manufactured in or about Way
nesboro.'- It is now believed in Waynes
boro' and also in Hepsidam, that George
does not write the so called Temperance.
ville correspondence ; but only pretends
to act, as a, foreign correspondent, to help
the Directors out of their awful bell di
lemma. "Some localities have slow coach
es" says Observer; but I . perceive Mr. Ob
server that this saying is not applicable
to the School Directors of Waynesboro'l
for surely they' ride in fast coaches, hav
ing too much velocity to stop at the office
of the "Village Record," and have their
yearly report of the common schools of
the borough printed in the paper; but
went to Chambersburg. It is easy- to ride
in fast coaches and slight home industry
when the public must bear expenses. If
the people were disposed to incourage for
eign, instead of home industry, and would
go to Chambersburg whenever they stead
in need of a physician, or, when they wish
to buy drugs, dry goods, furniture, and
carriages, most likely the School Board
would soonbe compelled to tear down
signs, pull' up stakes, break camp and.
leave for Hepsidam where the School
Board always patronizes the "Record."—
It i 6 gratifying to know however, that the
vindictive course pursued by the Board
doss not meet the approbation of the citi
zens of the &Rough ; and neither is their
white washed report satisfactory to the tax
payers ; because there'are too many things
not itemized. The citizens abhor so ma
ny sundries without knowing what they
are, and so much incidental ex penses.
The directors should have stated in their
handbill report, how many hundred green
backs the toads' reservoir cost them. The
people would like to know how much it
posts to cart. dirt on a school. lot at four
or five dollars.per day, and also how much
it costs to cart it off again. The taxpay
em wish to know how much it costs to put
up a fence, around a school lot by a Ma
rylander, (no workman in Waynesboro')
also how much it costs to take it down
and'put it up a second time. These may
be small items to a Board that rides in
fast coaches, and amasses a school debt,
so large, that the principal and interest
will not be paid in twenty years. Cast
ing the cognomen of the Directors on the
bell, did not cost anything, not one farth
ing extra, therefore they need not itemize
that. The steam heaters keep the house
comfortable in July and August, but are
freezers in the winter: Cast of this new
enterprise. twenty-eight hundred dollars.

Sewing Machines ordinarily become use

its correct mechanical principles, and the
means employed for taking up lost motion
which no other machine posesses, the •iWil

service. Having but few parts there is very
little friction, and the machine runs light

templating the purchase of a Sewing Ma

DEATHS.
Gone far from evil,
All is now well,
Taken from suffering
In glory to dwell.
Of Scrofula, June 22d.' in Boardman,
Mahoning Co., Ohio, EDWIN E. SMITH',
son of J. C. and A. B. Smith, formerly of
Ringgold District, Washington C 0.,. Md.,
aged 18 years and 24 days, after a pro
tracted affliction of over fifteen years.— .
Funeral services took place on Monday
the. 23rd, conducted by the Rev. Welty
Wilson, Pastor of the Boardman M. E.
Church, of which deceased was a member,
and was attended by a large concourse of
relatives and sympathizing friends. Ser
mon preached. on text chosen by deceased,
John 11th chapter part of the 25th verse,
"I am the resurrection and the life : he
that believeth on me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live :"
Many of the readers of Record will•re
member Edwin ; many were his school
and playmates, and all who knew him
were his friends, The kindness, geniali
ty and patience of Edwin under his soto
affliction made him sympathetic friends
wherever his lot in life was cast. Always
ready to perform his part whether in work
or play. Though his lameness made walk
ing painful and laborious, he was always
on time at Sunday school and church ;
leading an exemplary life .that it would
be yell for his young friends to imitate.—
Until within the past four years his dis
ease was located iu his hip but since then
and up to the time of his death it extend
ed to his spinal column and kidneys and
then throughout his entire system, Dur
ing the last few weeks ofhis illness he suf
ferd the most excruciating pain, yet with
that meek confiding spirit which charac
terizes the christian believer, he bore his
trials without a murmur, knowing that
"all things work together for the good of
the Lind," - The nearer the hour of his
departure approached, the more he rejoic
ed in the tend hope of..being delivered,
from sickness, sorrow, pan and death, ex
pressing the most earnest desire to meet
his friends and relatives, beyond the Jor
dan, of death where he. said there would
be no more lameness. He remained con
scious until the last hour when he bade.
all present an effectionate farewell, and;
fell asleep in Jesus.
' Farewell our Edwin, darling son.
Your trials are o'er,Nour work is donCi
lo. heaven your aching head you'll rest,
Securely on. your Saviour's breast.
