I Since that time he his continued to live with his - Wife, and, with - the - single exceptioi of a few triflingmitamdersiand lags, everything has passed off pleasantly until this week,,, when Pattingiil, while under the influence of liquor, threatened to kill his wife, and abused her shamefully. .Tuesday a warrant was sworn out for his arrest, but it was not served beciuse of a mistake in the name. Pattingill then WWII' TO' ELIILIIA and returned on the 4:30 train this morn ing. He went atiOnee to his louse and at tempted to iet in, but foundthe doors lock ed; he said he would , kill his wife if he did get in and he began searching for the axe, which she had taken:, the precaution to hide. - Failing to get in the lodse he turned his at tention to the garden, pulling up the vege tables and flowers and throwing them into the street. At about 0 o'clock he wentto the house pf C. M.. Segar, who lives near by and sa►d he could not get in his house. He was invited to come into Mr. §egar's but refusid. He thei went into an out house and-remained-a-Aew moments, when he came to Mr. &gar's' side door and said that he had taken eight grains of something and his bilks r • COULD HAVE HIS CARCASS - to-day if they wanted it. His whiskers were covered ;with a white powder, and he presented a 4ery wild appearance. He then went. to! the house of his daughter, Mrs. Charles Williams and asked for a Cup of coffee. She got him some coffee and bread, and 'he sat down and began to eat. Wfil'inn4 having some errands up' town, left hiin l sitting there, and was gone until nearly 10 o'clock, when she returned and found him dead, In the 'meantime, a paper marked "moramsz—POlSON," and containing about one grain of that drug, was found in the out house at Mr. Sugar's. 'Squire Bishop was immediately notified and summoned I/ jury, who rendered a ver dict in accordance with the above facie.

When (tenors' Sullivan marched up the river, his arm y encamped, on the opposite side while his soldiers for amusement used therock'for a target plant ing some grape against its broad top, a cor ner.of which was broken off, as Can be seen from the cars. With raftmen in the days of running lumber down the Susque hanna it was a prominent land-mark and served as guide. • • .

But the pretty rural village - near it, has been given a name and those admiring the wonders of nature here find an interesting'field, while some writer. of fiction might weave a thrilling romance concesxing it . ..Eimira Advertiser. ' i . Another interesting fact *in connection with this stone (not a boulder) is that raft men going down the river with a green horn as 'a hand, would' tell him with great gravity, that whenever that stone heard a rooster crow on the east side of the river it would face around to the Oast, and when ever it heard one crow on-the west side it would turn back again.' !be greeny would Wonder how so hue. a item coeld, c olumge its position so reaMy never wondenug how it could !leer 'Sleoster crow.—tirotterly drogiqe.: : ' The most reniarkable thing about thib stone is its growth.
