A dispatch from Hunlingdon to the AU

the most brutal murders that haa ever oc-
enred in this county was penetrated in
Wast township, a very remote part of the
county, an Friday morning I is I, the dt tails
of wbici have j ist been made puoiic- by the
arrest of the murderer, John Gardner, who
was brought to this city this morning and
confined in jail. Tbe murder occurred iu

desolate mountain region in (he slate, which
is rarely visited by any person except hardy
and teiituresouia hunters.
John Gardner the murderer, is 27 years
old.aud resided with bis lather-iu-law, Mr.
George Wartieid, tbe other member of the
household being Mrs. wardner aud infant

corn. Mot returuiug until tbe next morn

unnecessary delay, saviug that he, (War
tied) ibougb to )", could hare perlorui

dner repeatedly airuck ti.u over the head
aud body aud lelt biiu lyiug where he fell
and weul into tbe bouie.
Mrs. WaiHeld was the only eye witness
the mutder, and Gardner knowing Ibis
threatened lo shoot bur il she should ted.
lie toiced b. r lo assist bi.u to carry the
dead body of bis victim into the bouse, aud
in doing so the poor old woiuau tainted iu

Monkeying with the oil market is becom
ing the chronic disease of this country. It
is not a business- It haa not even the el
enieuts of decent speculation. It is pure
ly a game of chance, besides which belling
on sn boaest game of euchre is a sate em
ployment. One may buy wild lauds in Pat
agouia or icebergs iu Greenlaud or even
stocks in tbe f acorn a mine aud have some
sort of a base lor bis venture, but uo man.
uUess he beloug to the Standard Oil Com
pany, can do anything wilb reason in tbe
oil market. Yob may place aome reliance
on "old probabilities." ou may lorocasl (he
buiuoi ot a woiuau Iroia her allowance ol
piu tuouey or (be mood ot a man from the
character ot his diuuer, but there la uo
sign on which you cau rely for speculat
ing. Were its uncertainty iu only bad feature
were there no results worse than losing
money, or did speculators injurs no one
bat themselves, the case would not need
comment, but il is not so. Truth is thai
next to liquor, spec jla lion is rumiug more
homes, destroy ing more men aud making
miserable uioie women than any other vice
in tbe couutry. Il is uoiuiug more or lesa
than a popular crime, lia eff. eta aro as
marked as those ol any other term of dissi
pation and a speculator is aa easily told as
a toper. Down in (he barhjr shop the other
day wbila Bob wj lathering my face aud
piepariug the razor he said of a luau who
bad just goue oul : Ves, aah, dal's Mr.
blown. Mo'n a week since he's bin shaved
beie' ; all oa account of de market, aah.
He's bill so puwalul blue be didu'l bate uo
interest iu bis 'pearauce or uultliu'. Dal
market is a mighty bad th.ug lor pusou'a
leeiiu'siu my 'piuiun, sab." Two hours la
ter (he grocer said lo me grimly, ol tue same
msu : "brown's buy lug voUli.h iustead ot
couut oysters just uow, ueeu moukeyiug
with the laaiket, I gue.-e.' Itsi tfccis are
Uol only maiked, (bey are widespread, that
iu tact so Widespread that it is absolutely
la d inger of turuiug us into a couutry of
baukiupis, aud worse still, luto a country
of prematurely old, bajaid, goud-ior-uoihiug
meu. The reason is evideut
enough.
A mini cannot see the whole or even a
ptrt ol the fortune which he haa worked
yeais te gathsr, hanging ou a rise or Ml! ot
lo cents witnoul growing nerseils. Could
he do any thing at all t i influence tlie mar
ket, it wouid be some relief, bill be cau'l.
He has put bis money into a place Iu which
lie bas uo ludueuce. l! he hid thrown II lo
the wiuua il might have oe.u blown back to
him or might have possibly lailea wnere he
could liud it, but now well, it may be
blowu back to bun, to be aure, with anoth
er mau'a losses added to il psrhaps, but it
il does not he bas not eveu the chance tlu
wind would give ol hiid'ng il. It takes the
nerve oul ol ol a man lo ail aud see buu
avti iu the power ol a seuseless machine a
thing over which be cannot exert a particle
ol influence. Said a young lawyer, wen
knuwu iu this community, a short time ago:
I ti ied speculating ouce. 1 ha I $ Barf
ed irom my Hi si tnree years at ttid law, and
I put it into oil. I bougi.t bona file oil. 1
aasu'l quite so tar gone as (o go ou mir
gius, and 1 owued it just two weeks. 1
didu'l sleep two bonrs oti a stretch during
ibat whole lime. 1 was never so wr. icu.-d
la my life. 1 sold out and luckily got my
money back, aud I have never louebed a
barrel ol oil since and never will." The
sleeplessness is the CoinJim experience,
common si use enough to sell out very un
common. Ware success in oil sp'cu'ation any less
wearing than failure th m would bj some
thing to be thaukliil lot. but it isn't. The
risk that hings over each day's investment
even though yesterday's may hive paid
handsomely, keeps a man in a continual le
vor. It actually turns the hair gny in no
business in the country wid yon flu 1 so
