Tbe principles of the Commune are old ;
they were advocated in days gone by. One
of tbe most powerful arguments agsinst it
la tbe fact that at no time, in no age, haa it
bad on its side tne moral and intelligent
portion of the community. Ita ranks are,
and always have been recruited from the
Immoral and vicious classes. To be sure
the exceptions apply to tbe Commune, but
where they occur, where a moral and intel
ligent man is found advocating their cause,
the reason, if traced out, will he found in
ambition ; be n ambitious, wants power, or
notoriety, and makes the Commune the
tnedioar to Teach it.

Last Friday afternoon a bolt of lightning
killed a valuable cow and two fine 6-month
old calves that belonged to tbe editor ot this
paper. Tbe cattle were sheltering from tbe
rain under the foliage of an apple-tree. If
!t bad not bscn for the dead cattle, and
dead bird that was partly stripped of Its
plumage, no one passing that way would
bare ever conjectured that ligh'ning de
scended there, for it left no mark excepting
to scarify a small root a'ong tha surface of
the ground that grew out of the base of the
trunk ol the apple-tree, and if tbe scarified
root bad been noticed the injury to it would
never have been attributed to lightning
A alas who has a nutube- of men em
ployed ha aa much a right to fr:n a con
spiracy with aa many ruffians as be can se
cure to compel n.en to work for him, sj the
strikers have to form a Conspiracy with ruf
fians U compel men o quit work, when they
are at work, or to prevent them from work
ing when they can get work. If you can
make a roan quit work, you can make him
work. There i no difference in the princi
ple. The men who advocate such princi
ples sre not the friends of free government,
for tha principle is that of wrong and des
spotisiu. A man mav hire or employ men
to Work for liitu, but be cannot compel men
to work for him. A man may quit work,
but be cannot compel other men to abstain
from work, or prevetit other men from
taking bis place when be quits work, and
the man who advocate that be can compel
bia fellow men to work, or compel ibeiu to
quit work, ia advocating what will end in
s;r tg government and sive-y. A free
government cannot J arUKC large y of such
doctrines and live, any more- than a man
can partake of poison aiid live.

A Chaix of Accidents. A corres-
potident of the Newville Enterprise
furnishes the following : Mr. S. B.
JlcCune, of near Tied Barn, has of
late been unfortunate almost beyond
precedent. A few days ago while re
turning from Bed Barn with a bundle
of bags on his fine horse, Joe, the
animal became frightened and ran
away, the bags getting loose and add
ing to his fright. By a great effort
Mr. MeCune succeeded in turning
him in to the fence, where unfortu
nately a projecting stake struck the
horse in the eye, knocking that organ
entirely out, and also striking the
rider on the breast and side, unhors
ing him and almost breaking his ribs.
The horse ran home, and Mr. MeCune
was astonished on returning to find
the eye miraculously in its place
again. Next morning he found again
that the eye had been out all night,
and after pntting it back, a celebra
ted horse-doctor was summoned, who
took the eye out and examined it, and
a small splinter was discovered stick
ing to the back part of the eye. The
splinter was removed, the eye re
turned, and he believes the horse will
not lose his sight Following this
was a visitation of hog-cholera, which
took at a sweep twenty-eight of his
finest porkers, worth $200. And im- j
mediately following was tbe running
away ot tiis lour-borse team, tne
course they took being almost certain
to cause tbe death or wounding of
his horses if not checked, when his
youngest 6ister, just convalescent
after a severe sick spell, taking in the
situation, with wonderful heroism
ran out, seized the rein of a young
and high-spirited off-wheel horse, and
by a superhuman eilort succeeded in
stopping the whole team, at the im
minent risk of her own life, displaying
an almost unequal ed act of bravery.
We had supposed that this city was
entirely free from the cooodeace men
and swiudling operators who infest
farge cities, but we learn that a gang of
shrewd rascals are working their "little
game" in ibis couiurmity , but without
success. Tne trick, which is an old
one and often before exposed, consists
in openins a tobaojo box before the in
tended victim, explaining tbe peculiari
ties of its o instruction, then after tbe
box is shut, asking the person to be
rulled to open it, which be g-nncrally
does, as he seomtcgly understands the
the process. A duplicate box is sub
stitued for the first one produced, and
the owner wants to bet that "greeny"
esn't open it. As the Utter thought
he opened it all rijtht the first time, he
general!; takes the bt and ivariably
loses, for the last box rdifferntly made
from tbe first time, he generally takes
the bet and invariably Irises, for tha
last box is differently made fmm the
first, and no one ean open it bat the
owner. H'e have not teamed that any
pet son has been swindled as yet, bat it
is best to give strangers a warning that
M things are hot all what they sein,"
and it is just as easv to gt swindled
as easy ean be Harrubvrg Telegraph.
"It is said that dysentery in its worst
form ean be eared, after ali other medi
cines have failed, by drinking wbeat
flour stirred in water, in quantity of
adout half a tumbles of water, made to
the consistency of cream. It may be
advisable to add a pinch of salt. The
same effect nisy be produced ia eases
of hronio diarrbre."
- A TCarSQgV Wjai 326 SaprMBA
Court of this State rendered a de
cision in the case of Wolback and
wife against the Lehigh Building
Association. ' It declares that in all
cases where married women deal with
the associations the mortgage is good
only for the actual amount loaned
and the legal interest A logical con
sequence seems to be that if the
money loaned has not been used to
buy or improve her separate real es
tate, bat has been used to raise mon
ey to pay her husband's debts, or for
other purposes, it is void altogether.
This will, no doubt, seriously affect
the vast investments made by build
ing associations on the credit of mort
gages given by married women, and
will prove a grave matter for such
associations. Of late years it has
been a very common practice for men
to hold their property in their wives'
names, and, when desirous of a loan,
to join with the wires in the mort
gage, contrary to the law as it now
appears. The effect of this decision
will certainly be seen in litigation
consequent upon suits on mortgages
given by married women, and a total
refusal by the associations to make
future loans on any terms.
Mr. David U. Smith, residing in
Spring township, and was terribly
ouuded in lSt4, writes us tbat be
has found tbe location of tbe ball which
yet remains in bis head, lie ssya :
"l'tiu are no doubt aware tbat I was
shot tbrougn tbe bead wbile serving
my country in tbe late war. I was
sLnt'on Sunday, the fifth of June, lG4.
From that time uut:l now I suffered se
verely from my wound. To day- July
20 1 h, wbile examining the wound I dis
covered tbe ball still in iu? bead.
Tbe ball bad been Gred by a man on
my right, and it entered my bead at
tbe right molar bone, just in front of
the right ear, passed through my bead
below the eye destroying the drum ic
tbe left ear. There it must have stop
ped after shattering the cbeek bone.
I bled freely at tbe left ear, and the
doctors all agreed tbat the ball passed
out of (bat ear as it eould be traced to
the opening in tbe ear; but to Jay I
discovered the ball lying in a flit
tened condition against the left cheek
bone, aud under the lower part of tbe
left ear. 1 can move it about with my
fingers. It seems to be a ball from a
navy revolver. I found it while search
ing f-.ir the cause of the pain in my
head the wound still brine open."
