Washing Mads Easy. On Tuesday
List we witnessed the operation of washing
clothes in an "Improved Swinging Wash
Tub." The advantages claimed in wash
ing, hy means of this tub, are, 1st, That a
woman can wash about as many clothes in
fire minutes with it, as she can in an honr
in the usual way. 2d, That there is les3
wear and tear on the clothes than on a com
mon board. 3d, Thritwill wash cleaner
th.n can be done by hand. David B. Ream
ha purchased the right to make and sell
th. r,c machines in Clearfield county, and
will be in Clearfield during the coming Court
week, when all will be afforded an opportu
nity of examining the "tub" and witness
ing its operations. " Townahip rights can be
had upon application.
The Execution ok Chase. Charles
Chase, convicted of the murder of Mrs.
K'izabeth M'Donald, in Jefferson county,
wi executed at Brookville, on Wednesday,
August 2Sih. Before leaving the cell he,
fipressed himself happy, and ready to
suffer for his crimes and to atone to the of
fended law for the terrible deed for which
Le stood convicted relying on the merits of
a Divine Saviour for everlasting life and
peace. The parting between Chase and his
relatives is described as heart-rending, after
which he was led forth to the place of exe
cution. On taking a seat on the scaffold,
he said:
"Gentlemen, I have a few words to say
to you. I am uneducated, and. I wish to
correct a wrong impression that is existing
in the minds of some of the people of this
place. They say the religion I have now
was forced upon me, but it was . not. The
young lady who came to my cell has saved
nie from hell, and if it had not been for her
I would have been lost , I am innocent of
the crime which is alleged I committed, and
I die an innocent man ; if I am not, I hope
to be damned. The next time a stranger
comes to your town give him a chance for
his life and do not seek after his life. I had
good instruction until I was about fourteen
jears of age. You think gentlemen, this
is hard, but look at what our poor soldiers
endured. I die forgiving all against whom
I have any enmity with, and have prayed
tor them. Gentlemen, I want your prayers
on my behalf, and I hope to meet you aH in
Heaven. Again, gentlemen, I say I am in
nocent of the murder for which I am about
to suffer." , , ; ; ... ,, .
At 1:15 Chase arose and took down the
noose from its support On one of the up
rights of the scaffold, tried it a little, and
then knelt in prayer, with, his' confessor,
father J. Coke, of the Catholic Church.
After prayer was ended,' he stepped on the
drop. The noose was then placed over him ,
a black cap drawn over his face, the , fatal
spring touched, and the victim fell to the
ground the noose not having been properly
adjusted. At 2: 18 the drop again fell, this
time successfully, and in a few minutes, the
ky hung motionless ' his neck: being
broken in the fall.,. After being suspended
half an hour, the body was taken down and
placed in a coffin, and delivered to his rela
tives lor interment His bodjr was. burjed
near where hi father resides, in DecatuV
towDhip, this eouniy.; ;
Franklin, County, Two wcs since a
friend in the country sent Mr. J. i. Nixoni
of Cham oersbarj7 fifteen grjake eggs, which
were thrown iuto an -,open box. under, the
counter in his store, and were forgotten for
some, days,'1 when, ' attention 'beings' called
to them, Mr. Nixou found the eggs, begin
ning to open, and during the' day nine cop
perhead snakes, about six inches in length,
came out of some of the eggs. True to the
instincts of nature, as soon as their , heads
appeared outside of the shell, they stuck
out their fangs and showed fight.
The Seventh Jubilee of the Reformation
will be observed in the Lutheran and sever
al other Protestant Churches, on the 31st
of October next.; s Preparations for a great
celebration are already being made in many
places. It is an event worthy the observa
tion of all Protestants. These three hun
dred and fifty years of liberal progressive
Christianity in the world have wrought won
ders.' Let glorious old Martin Lurher be
remembered for his courage in nailing the
ninety-five Theses on the door of the castle
church ot Whittemberg on the 31st of Oc
tober, 1517. .
The managing agent of the Grand Ma
sonic Gilt Concert Lottery of New York has
been arrested on a charge of keeping a lot
tery office. The order, -in its National
Council recently held, denounced the use of
any such measures to pecuniarily aid any
Lodge, ami the breaking up of the scheme
will give satisfaction to the Masons through
out the country. ,
The public will be pained to learn cf the
escape of Duncan, the Commissary to the
monster Wirz, of Andersonville prison.
He succeeded in making his way out of Fort
Pulaski, where he was serving a term of
fifteen years imprisonment, and has gone to
Europe. Justice is sorely cheated of its
dues in this instance.
It is unmanly, it is little less than mean,
for the Democrats to be fishing for help
from the acceded States, when they failed
to give them even the help they promise J in
their secest-ion. This is the view of the
case, at least, which is taken by some of the
more rebellious and "honorable" of the
Southern press. , , . . .
So long as Sheridan remains in power, he
does his duty. He has removed a number
of civil officers in Galveston for disloyalty.
If Mr. Johnson would let him alone Texas
would soon bo wholly governed by men who
are true to the Union.
The Meadville Democrat says that Hon.
D. A. Finney, who has been for some time
