—A dispatch announces frost in Maine
on Monday morning last.
Virlt is said that the mind of Mrs.
Ross, the mother of the missing , child, is
becoming disordered through her trouble
iiiirßev. John S. Glendenning, of Jer
sey City, has been under arrest, charged
with the seduction of the church organist.
The lady died on Tuesday, and on her
death bed charged Glendenning with his
guilt. He however persists in his deni
als, and exhibits a paper signed with her
name, asserting his innocence. This paper,
ed her to sign by bolding a pistol at her
bead. Public sentiment runs high against
Glendenning.
Or Monday night some miscreants en
tered the stable of Patrick Dwyer at New
York, and stabbed nine fine horses. Six
were found dead when the foreman enter
ed in the moruing,andtree 'others are not
expected to live. Each horse was stabbed
in the flank, The society foi the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals offered a reward of
one hundred dollars for such information
as will lead to the arrest and conviction
of . the offenders. The three horses lay
writhing in agony and giving utterance to
their-disress-by-pitiful-grons.
ms6The New Orleans Picayune is much
alarmed at the possibility of a labor exo
dus which it fears as a consequence of the
violence of the white leaguers in that
State. It dislikes to see the negro depart
for Texas, leaving waste the fields where
be might have labored well; but it dreads
also to have him remain. From the tes-:
timony of the Picayune and other Louis•
Tana papers it would seem that the color
ed laborers, with their wives and families,
are rapidly leaving many sections of the
State, and that they are urged to that
course by the hostile attitude of their
white fellow-citizens.
lefir A one-legged soldier, a Mormon,
recently asked Brighrm Young to supply,
by a miracle,the missing limb ; the apostle
not to be caught made this reply : "I can
in an instant produce a new leg in the
place of the old one, but then, you see, if
I do, it R ill cause great inconvenience
to you in Heaven, for after your exalta
tion to glory the original leg will come
back to the spiritualized body, mine also
being of divine origin becomes immortal,
and, in this case, observe how very awk
ward a three-legged angel from Utah
-would appear among the inhabitants of
the eternal world 1"
Mir The New York Independent last
week for the Srst time took notice, edito
rially, of the proceedings against Mr.
Beecher and his formal defence. It ex
presses such a judgment as the friends of
Mr. Beecher,and those who believe in the
innocence of the charge against him, will
be glad to hear. No other newspaper in
the country could speak from a more a
bundant knewledge of th 6 history of the
case than the Independent; for Mr. Bowen
has long-been in the most intimate rela
tions with all the parties and the opinion
of no other journal will begin to receive
the - attention and respect to which it is
entitled. Mr.. Bowen is no partisan of
Mr. Beecher, but he has the fairness and
the candor to say, what is apparent to so
many others, that the case against him so
far. has failed.
riftt,.. A war of races seems to have be
gun in good earnest iu Garrard county,
Ky. The despatches are too vaugely a
larming to obtain credence for exact cir
cumstantiality, but they convey definite
information of fighting. Hostilities have
been going on since Wednesday, and on
Friday a white man was killed, which so
exasperated the whites that they attacked
the negroes,who sought refuge in' house,
but• were burned out, •no account being
given of harm done. The troubles have
arisen from political difli!rences between
Sellers, a Republican, and Kennedy, Dem
ocrat. Sellers has about him fifty negroes
and whites, armed with Spencer rifles, en
trenched near his house, which was burn
ed. Gov. Leslie has called out the militia,
and two hundred and fifty men have left.
Louisville for the seat of war. The report
of casualties presents the usual character
istics five negroes killed and several
wounded. Another account states that
firing on the negroes has been kept up all
the evening, and that the burning ofSel
ler's house was with intent to burn up the
negroes, who are t.urrounded. It is re
ported that some United States troops
who attempted to suppress the riot were
fired on by both parties. The white man
who was killed was a brother-in-law of
Kennedy and one of his adherents. The
trouble grew out of a contested election
case for the office of Clerk of -the Circuit
Court.
. NEW Yout, - August 24.—Mr. Morris,
Theadore Tilton's counsel, is to-day pre
paring complaints against various news
papers, which, it is claimed. have pub
lished libelous articles against Mr. Tilton.
The damages are laid at $50,000 each.—
The only papers named as yet are the
Brooklyn Eagle and New York Tribune
"laid World. The suit against H. W.
Beecher will 'be the first prosecuted.—
Messrs. Tracy, Sherman and Sterling are
'preparing their answer to the- complaint
ni Mr. Morris.
olgt-With a manner of very pleasant
simplicity and precision a writer in the
Penn Monthly relates of the perils of mod
ern Quakerism. If we may.believo him,
the Quakers iu the South during the re
bellion suffered nearly as deeply as did
their ancestors in old Colonial days and
under the thumbs of the royal Charlases.
The Southern Quaker wouldn't fight, and
wouldnt't pay his exemption tax, conse
quently be wa. dragged into the ranks,
and mild means falling to make him car
ry bayonet or spade, he was tortured after
fashions that recall the agreeable ways of
Claverhouse. ' Instance after instance is
is told of the passive but resolute resistance
these thoroughly believing men made.—
After all manner of punish meats had prov
ed of no use, one 'of them was led before
a ;squad of men , to be shot. As the or-
Friend raised his hands and said simply,
"Father, forgive them, for they know not
what they do." No one fired ; the soldiers
said they "could not shoot such a man."
These stubborn Quakers would not run a-
way ; imprisonment had no effect upon
them ; and in sheer despair furloughs were
given them because they were impedi
ments, of no use to the army. It is a
pleasure, in these somewhat flabby days,
to read of the absolute devotion with which
these men are represented as clikging to
their convictions.
IMPROVING WRNAT SAED,-A writer
sa •s : It has beert my practice_for_thelast
18 years to run my wheat for seed over a
very coarse seed screen,so as to show non e
but the largest kernels. By so doing I have
improved my wheat so as to have sold
nearly all of it at home for seed.. But in
1872 I hit upon a new plan,l had a piece
of Tredwell wheat that was injured by
insects in the previous fall and was kill
ed by freezing in the winter, so that there
were spots not worth cutting. After har
vest I observed a few scattered heads of
unusual size. It occurred to me that
there was wheat that had withstood the
ravages of the insects and rigor of the
winter. I gathered enough to sow one rod
square, from which I realized twenty
pounds of wheat, unusually large, even
berry, which was at the ratio of over fifty
bushels to the acre ; last harvest I bad
twenty bushels which weighed sixty-six
pounds per bushel. It is my opinion, we
realize the best crops from the best and
most perfect seed in the vegetable as well
as the animal kingdom.
FOR POLITICAL EFFECT.—For several
weeks past we have had telegraphic des
patches from the South announcing start
ling stories of negro riots, from which we
might suppose that an alarming state of
affairs exists in that unreconstructed re
gion. (And such a state of affairs does ex
ist, so far as the safety of the negroes are
concerned.) We hear of negroes taking
possession of a town,and a small sized ar
my of whites, with Generals, Colonels
and other officers, was gotten up to cap
ture or kill. But when the truth comes
out, all these reports turn out to be lies,
gotten up no doubt for political effect.—
And what is most remarkably strange,
when there is any riot or bloodshed it al
ways turns out that no one but negroes
are killed or wounded. Is it not strange
that if negroes are the aggressors,as these
reports would have us believe, that the'
whites always escape injury. Let justice
be done.

ita. The Hagerstown Twice A Week
makes the following true remarks: It is
popularly thought that anybody, good,
bad or indifferant, is capable of teaching
small children, but it is a great mistake
to suppose so. It is more important to
start right than to be very particular af
terward. A competent teacher can lay a
foundation that will not give way in after
life half so readily as it otherwise would.
It is also a mistake to frequently change
teachers. When a child has become fa
miliar with its instructor, it has to com
mence over again to know a new one, if
sent to another school.

THE FESTIVAL.—The Ladies' Festival
in behalf of the Waynesboro' Brass Baud,
which proved quite a success, was closed
at Beaver's Hall on Monday evening.
FINE RAlNS.—Timely and refreshing
showers fell here ou Saturday morning,
and on Sunday morning it again com
menced raining and continued without
intermission during the day most thor
oughly soaking the ground, the benefits
of which to the growing corn, potatoes,
etc. must prove of immense value.
TAE Buns. 7 —Our latest advices are that
the potato patches in and about town are as
fully scourged with the Colorado bugs as
were• those earlier in the season. With
the present seasonable weather the late
crop must prove an abundant one if the
"bug war" of extermination is continued•
The closer they are now looked up the
less will there be to contend with a year
hence.
MORE Pisan;o.—Notwithstanding fish
ing along the Antietam in Maryland is
prohibited by law, a fact to which we
called attention in our last issue, a party

laws.

CAMP MEETlNG.—Cumberland Valley
M. E. Camp Meeting commenced near
Oakville, Cumberland county, on Thurs
day last. According to the published ac
counts the attendance during the first
three days was unusually large. The new
tents and tabernacle are represented as
admirably arranged. Since last year the
grounds have been enclosed with a board
fence and the gates closed against the ad
mission of-horses. On the grounds are a
barber shop, restaurant, book store and
Post Office for the convenience of those iu
attendance.
At 6 o'clock on Thursday evening,says
a correspondent, the dedication of the new
tabernacle took place, "the dedicatory
address being delivered by Dr. W. Lee
Spottswood, of.Waynesboro'. The speaker
had no special text. In commencing his
the Gettysburg battle ground, where the
lamented Lincoln officiated, and suggest
ed that the tabernacle might be dedicated
almost in the words of the late President.
Dr. S. kept his hearers in suspense in this
particular for some time, however, and
this caused them to give special attention
to his remarks until near the close, when
be informed them that Abraham Lincoln
said "the proper way to dedicate the battle
ground was to dedicate ourselves to the
service of onr country." Now, the best
way to dedicate this tabernacle was -"to
dedicate ourselves to the service of God."—
These words caused great commotion in
the-congregation-and-a-powerful-meeting
followed."
PERSONAL.—Among the sojourners in
our town last week was our jovial friend
from Philadelphia; Mr. C. H. Unger.—
Charley's disposition pertakes largely of
"wit and humor " and he is therefore al-
ways warmly welcomed by many friends
Rev. S. S. Miller, Pastor of the Reform
ed Church at Boonsboro' Md. is now visit-
ing his friends in this place and vicinity.
Rev. J. D. Detrich,of Flourtown, Mont
gomery county, Pa. was also at his home
in this place enjoying a season - of respite
from his pastoral labors. He • left for
Montgomery county on Saturday morn
ing last.
Wesley Minsel, a clerk With Messrs.
Amberson & Rupp about twenty five years
ago,was last week on a visit to his brother
in-law in this place, Rev. W. L. Spotts
wood. Mr. M. hails from Terre Haute,
Ind., where he is engaged in the banking
business.
Our venerable townsman, Mr. L. S.
Forney, of the Waynesboro' Steam Tan
nery, is now on a Western tour. He will
be absent for a few weeks.
On Tuesday evening Mr. Joseph Price,
President of the First National Bank of
this place, returned from a several weeks
tour to Niagara Falls, Long Branch,and
other places of note along the Hudson riv
er. He spent about one week at Ocean
Grove, six miles South of Long Branch,
a summer resort for ministers and others,
in company with Rev. R. F. McClean of
this place. The latter gentleman is ex
pected home next week.
LAUGHABLE OCCURRENCE.—One of our
clothing men had quite an adventure on
Monday last. It appears a young man
from the Maryland side has been owing
him an account for clothing for several
years and he had been looking for an op
portunity to "interview" the gentleman
on the sabjec l „%ut he would in one nay or
another manage to evade him. On Mon
day, however, our man of coats, pants
and vests, got a glimpse of his friend on
the opposite side of the street, and at once
started in pursuit of him. The one in
advance discovered that the latter was
pursuing him and for about three squares
the fastest walking perhaps in the history
of our town was done. The clothier get
ting a little short of breath and finding
he was no nearer the object of his pursuit
than when he started, concluded to halt
his man,and accordingly he called to him
at the top of his voice to stop, but instead
of stopping he took to his heels. and the
result was a regular foot race until the
clothing man was "brought to" from sheer
exhaustion. If the latter don't swear he
doubtless thinks vengeance against the
credit system and that run-away in par
ticular.
TOWNSHIP TEACHERS.—The following
is a list of teachers employed for the next

MR. EDITOR :-It is our - pleasure for
the first time to give you a short descrip
tion of a Pic Nic from Waynesboro' and
whilst we speak of the pleasant hours
there enjoyed, we only regret that it is
over again for another year. Through
the kind remembrance of the members of
Trinity Reformed Sabbath School, we
were invited to participate in the festivi=
ties of the day.- For fair weather, we
wished, we prayed, until the morning of
that ever memorable day dawned ; when
the sun arose .in all his glory, cheering
the hearts of the little children, and not
to a small degree, those of the larger ones.
Every face wore a smile, every eye was
beaming with joy, and all were full of life.
At 7 o'cloCk the large bell on Trinity
Reformed Church rang and in less than
an hour it was crowded with men, women

procession moved, headed by the Waynes
boro' Cornet Band and followed by 80
carriages and wagons, conveying about
five hundred people in all. It was not
long until we reached the mountain and
at quarter past 9 o'clock we arrived at
Beautiful View Springs. Here we passed
the day in frolic, refreshing ourselves with
the pure mountain water. We met our
old friend, Mr. V. B. Gilbert, and he
seemed to be in the zenith of his glory.—
We also had the pleasure of speaking
with his estimable wife who seems to be
lwenjoying that cool retreat. We all enjoy
ed the trip, but felt a little fatigued when
e — rettrrned — irom - e — This — w - a - s - -i'd

them when the Pic Nic season comes
again. BALTIMORE.
80,..Airs. Susan Hays, who was convic
ted last November of having produced
an abortion on Miss Ross, Beaver Creek,
which resulted in that young lady's death,
was sentenced on Thursday a week.—
She was accom 'anied to court by her
daughter, a little girl about eight or ten
years of age, . who clung to her mother
and cried violently when the sentence was
pronounced and she was made aware that
her mother was to be taken from her.—
Judge Alvey in passing sentence spoke of
the aggravated nature of Mrs. Hays's of
fence in terms of severe reprobation. He
told her that she had been guilty of a
double murder, (from evidence the child
was alive when taken from Miss Ross,) for
which she might have been tried, but that
she bad been convicted only of abortion,
which was a statutory offence, and the
statute left the court a large discretion in
inflicting the punishment. Knowing,there
fore, her circumstances, the court would
impose no fine, but would sentence her to
six years imprisonment in the penitentiary,
which was far short of an adequate pun
ishment of her crime. As to her child,
he said the court had taken all precau
tions to have that cared for and put under
proper persons and properly educated
away from her contaminating influences,
and that she ought to look upon it as a
mercy that the little one was taken from
her.—Picot.

FREAKS OF THE LIGHTNING.—The Echo
says, that during the storm of Wednesday
evening, 12th inst., the _lightning struck
the rod erected at the residence - of Capt.
Wm. H. Davidson, near Greencastle.—
Tne rod was old and cracked with rust
(a non-conductor,) and about ten feet be
low the point the lightning left it, and
forced its way through a brick wall to the
garret where a white wire clothes line Was
placed,which it followed around its entire
length,then it jumped ou a joist and shat
tered it to pieces, and next found its way
to the tin valley on the roof which it fol
lowed the length of the house, then to the
round spouting and ran down it and ex
hausted its force in the rain barrel below.
Several woolen garments banging on the
clothes line were burnt off and fell to the
floor, and the house was filled with smoke
and the smell of sulpher. None of the
family were injured in the least.
SUDDEN DEA.TII.-Ou Wednesday eve

heart. He leaves a widow and eight chil

.BROOKLYN ScANom..—The city papers
still contain lengthy accounts of theßeech
er-Tilton scandal. In many instances
the details are disgusting and not fit to
appear in public print. Mr. Beecher has
made a lengthy statement to the Ply
mouth church investigating committee
vindicating himself from the charges of
immorality made by Theodore Tilton.—
Hie statement covers all the. issue of the
case, and charges of blackmail, plots and
intrigues are broadly and unequivocally
presented against Tilton and Moulton,
which has ' been followed with a second
statement from Moulton more damaging
to Beecher than the former one. Unless
the latter statement is a base fabrication
Mr. Beecher must be regarded as guilty
of the charges preferred against him by
Tilton, although the church investigating
commute 'as acquitte• nm.
Mr. Beecher on Monday swore to and
signed a paper forwarded to him from
New York, in which he denies all the
criminal allegations made against him by
Theodore Tilton. The document is for
use by Mr. Beecher's attorneys in respond
ing to Tilton's suit for damages.
