A few days ago, as Mrs. Sieber, wile of
Kev. Solomon Sieber, of Thonipsontown,
walked in her yard she found a large cop
perhead snake in the path. A garden spade
stood close by, and was brought iuto play
on the snake. A certain well-directed
thrust cut the reptile in two pieces, which
caused twenty-s:x little copperheads t come
out of their hiding-place and wriggle about
in the path. It was a large haul of snakes.
" Doctor," aid an old lady to her family
physician, kin ye tell me how it is that
some folks is born dumb?" Why, bem!
certainly madam," replied the doctor, ' it is
owing to the fact that they come into the
wrtrM without the power of speech!" "La,
me!" remarked the old lady, "now jest see
what it is to have a hysical eddication.
I've axed my oH man more nor a hundred
times that same thing, and all that 1 could
ever get out of hi'H was jest this, 'kase
they is.' "
There a:-e many men in the country w bo
advocate rhe doctrines of the commune.
Why do they not assemble in communities
and practk-K what they preach f If their
doctrine is the essence ol all social and in
dustrial reform, they certainly should be
able t make it clear by practice, by living
in communities; and if it la the good thing
that they want to inalie people believe it is,
then practice would soon convert the world
to it. Btt the truth Is thit the preaching
and the practices of the agitators of the
commune do not square. Tliey preach one
thing and practice another.
Showers & Scholl tJave received definite
inlormaiiun as to the carriages that they
started by rail for Warsaw, Indiana. The
train to which the two cars tint contained
the carriages were Attached reached Pitts
burg about the time the commune was lev
eling things about the railroad, and one of
the cars, uith i's contents, tell a victim to
their passion. The other car, with its con
tents, is safe, and douotless before this time
fcaa reached i's destination, Warsaw, lud.
The loos of Showers Jt Scholl is an Illustra
tion of the general loss lhat the commune
has brought on the country.
In the three hist campaigns the Democ
racy created a great deal of dissatisfaction
by denouncing the Republican parly for
giving so much laud to railroad companies
as that much help to build roads through
unsettled sections of the country. The
bitter denunciation had the U-ndency to stop
the Republicans from further loaning the!
credit of Ihi Government to corporations.
The country need not be surprised next
wiiit-r if they find the majority of Demo
cratic leaders in favor of the most unlimited
laud grant schemes, and in favor of loaning
the credit of the Government to corpora
tions. A tall tramp called at the residence of
Kurtz Kautliuan, in Fermanagh township,
on Monday, and alter miking inquiry about
money became very insolent and indulged
in murdi-rous threats. Every farmer should
have a supply of arms iu bis house, so that
if an attempt to put unlawful threats into
execution is made, he may be able to take
care of himself aud his family anil bis prop
erty. The people who keep the machinery
of civilization running are thvse who are
careful aud industrious in the management
cf their affairs, and it will not do to have
tbem or j w -beaten and robbed by a set of
people w ho do no good, but are only bur
den upon the geueral public.

farm elabs we nay suppose that iaros
ers sure beginning to realise that the
true offiae of outside fsaees, aad ia fact
of all fences, is not to keep oat tbe
stosk of a neighbor, lot to restrain oar
own. As a result of this idea we see
that laws preventing stock cf any kind
from ruutiing a; large in the highways
are gaming in form, and the area over
which they eiteud is every year in
creasing. It is a mistake to suppose,
as mauy do, that tbe fruit and grass
growing between tbe fences ot a public
highway of rigbt belong to tbe publia.
The public have only tbe right of pas
sage over tbe ground, but have no
right to iu products, which belong to
the owoer of tbe adjoioiufr farm. As
soon ss tbe 'raveler or the stock of the
farm diverge on either side of the legal
limits of the road, they beCouie tress
passers to tbe full extent of tbe term.
In strict equity it is no excuse that
there was no fence, for as before stated
fences are to keep the proprietor's
stock within bounds, and not keep tbe
others out. It takes a long time for
ns to get rid of tbe idea that "a legal
fence" must be "horse high, bull proof
bog tight." Sooner or later we will
arrive at a point when every farmer
will be tbe judge of tbe quality of bis
own fences, or in fact wether he will
fence at all.
Much has been said of tbe injustice
and cruelty of a law which prevents tbe
poor man from turning his cow out on
tbe public road. In tbe first place It
is poor economy for any one to turn a
cow into the public road. The time
spent iu bunting her when she fails to
come home, and the loss from not being
milked at the proper time will usually
pay for her keeping iu much better pas
ture. Of ail fencebreakers tbe road
cow is probably the most efficient and
active, aud independent cf her own ef
forts her presence leads the farm stock,
otherwise quiet, to break out aud cause
trouble. V ben cows were allowed to
at large, it was impossible to keep a
bull more than two or three years, for
he became so unruly as lo be a nuisance
to bis owner. liy tbe laws excluding
stock from the road tbi trouble is
avoided- Philadelphia Times.
The Huntingdon Monitor says : It becomes
our painful dutysto chronicle the ssd doath
of Miss Anna C StricUler, aged about twen
ty years, or this place. She lived with her
sister, Mrs. Hight, in West Huntingdon,
and on Monday last she gave Asabel Ilight,
a small boy about six years or age, an order,
with instructions lo take it to Smith's Drug
S tore, aud procure ti n cents worth of ar
senic, which was put up in the Usual form,
and marked "poison." Strange to aay.
Miss S trickier took the whole qnautity of
the deadly poison, which was doubtless
enough to kill fifty persons.
Soon after
swallowing it, ihe began to romit most vio
lently, and Dr. Brumbangh was called in at
a late Hour that night, but medical skill was
unavailing, and after lingering until about
9 o'clock on Tuesday morning, her spirit
took its flight. When it was discovered on
Monday at u moon that her situation was
Critical, ber father was summoned to ber
bed.-ide, before she became unconscious,
and she informed hint that she bad taken
poison in order to destroy her life. A cor
oner's inquest was held ever the body, aud
St'ler exstumitig seersl witnesws the jury
returned a verdict from whiih we extract
the following :
" That the said Anna C. Slricklrrcame to
her death, on lb; 31st of July, 1877, from
the effect ol a large quantity of arsenic,
taken by ber the previous afternoon, aud
adminiterei by her own hand, whilst labor
ing under great mental depression, super
iuduced by trouble."
The Jury also censure tbe dmggist tor
carelessness in selling the poison. The evi
dence taken before the coroner's jury
showed lhat decea-d was pregnant at the
time of her death, and it is believed that
this fai t caused the " mental depression''
which rev.ilt-d in her committing tu'etde.
The case is indeed a sad one, and we deeply
symi-athize with the friends of the unfortu
nate young woman.

I was nigh the first that kirsed her.

To Papa, his infant daughter,
How Papa's dear eyes did glisten !
She will shortly be to christen ;
And Papa bas made the offer
I shall have the naming of her.
N'..w I wonder what would please her,
Charlotte. Julia or Louisa.
Ann ard Mary, they're too common t
Joan's too formal for a woman;
Jane's a prettier name beside;
But we had a J are that died.
They would aay, if 'twas Rebecca,
That she was a little Quaker.
Kdith's pretty, but lhat looks
Better in old .English book.
Ellen's left off lung ago ;
Blanche is out or fashion now.

Are so good as Margaret.
Emily is neat and fine.
What do you think of Caroline t
How I'm puzzied and perplexed
What to choose or tfciuk of next !
1 am io a little fever,
Lest the name th it I shall give her
Should disgrace her or deiame her,
I w ill leave Papa to name her.
While cutting grain on tbe farm of
Jacob llarker, in Juniata township,
some days sgn, the harvest bands no
ticed three deer in a clover field on
Mr. llarker,s farm. Singular as it may I
appear, one of the animals was of a
pure white color. Mr. David Leigbty
says that he saw a buck and doe last
fall while hunting for wild turkeys,
that were pure white. If they eould
be captured alive they would prove a
fortune to the lucky man who owned
them. It is to be hoped that no hun
ter rbo may chance to find them will
be so nean as to shoot them for tbe
paltry value of tbeir bide and car

some plan whioh will result in their cap

The lords of creation " her have a very
nice croquet yard near the centre of town,
where they are wont, every evening, to as
semble and etjoy that delightful game until
datkness renders it impracticable, then they
go to tbe stores and shops and stroke and
tell yarns until long after the liuio they
should be at homo with their families.
Early on Monday evening, July SO, the
ladies otthe town assembled en said ground
b.-fore the men got there, ami took posses
sion. They numbered thirty or forty, of all
ages, from the blushing damsel of fifteen to
the hefty matron of sixty. They began
playing croquet, pitching hurse-shuea, jump
ing and other masculiue sports. In short,
they had things their own way; Like the
strikers, Ibey had taken possession and were
Bis l.xo thing to suit themselves. Later
in the evening the " lords," learning (he
condition of alfairs, concluded that the but
ter way waa to overcome evil with good,
and accordingly purchaoed a freezer of very
nice ice-cream, and with dishes, spoons,
eic, were soon seen, headed by the high
priest, marching toward the croquet ground;
Swanzey and Dr. twartl were groaning iin'
der the weight of the cream tht'y carried .
Arriving on the grounds, they treated the
entire crowd of ladies to all tbo ice cream
they could eat, which they (the ladies)
seemed to enjoy, after which one of the
ladies mounted a stump, and alter a brief
speech proposed .hat a vote of thanks bo
tendered the gentlemen for their kiudnasa,
which waa unanimously agreed to. Then
another lady moved that tbe gentlemsn be
excused from any further attendance that
evening, which was carried by a burst of
eloquent oyrl from every striker on the
grounds. The men, with their beads down,
their mouths shut and their hearts in tbeir
throats, retired orderly to thtiir homes and
places of business, while the gentler sex
resumed their former amusements, and con
tinued in them long after the shades of
night begin to gather around them. They
then made a raid upon the various stores in
town, demanding whatever their fancy dic
tated, which in uot casts was freely given i
When any hesitation was show n on the part
of tls? merchants to comply, force was re
sorted to. What time they got home I am
unable to say, getting too tired I dropped
out of the company. It is now hinted
arouud if another attempt it nude to repeat
the actiou that force will be resorted to, and
if thai won't do Uov. Uartranft will be
called here with his military force to put
down tbe strikers, and restore the property
to its oners. If any other town in Ibe
State has braver women than ours, we would
like to hear from them.
The Lewistown Gazette of last week
says : Kiie, a three-year old child of
cbaeSf-r Jacobs, met with a painful
mishap on Monday afternoon. A wash
boiler filled with boiling fuJ-t bad been
set upon the paymeut io the yard, about
which the little oue ws playing with a
dog. Stumbling she fell iuto the boil
er, tbe hot suds scalding ber back aud
side in a fearful manner. Medical aid
was immediately sutnmoiicd and reme
dies applied", but hir buttering were so
great, that death eusued at noou yes
terday.
