—lt is stated that ouly eleven and a
half per cent of the good laud of this
couutry is under cultivation, and yet
lots of young men had rather brace up
against the side of a brick block and
decorate the pavement with tobacco
juice than to seize the plow and go
shares with it.
—The sleeping Hungarian, who ha 3
been astonishing the people-nd pro
fessional men of Allentown and vicini
ty by the steadiness of his slumbers,
opened his eyes lately, but is in an un
conscious condition. As <in abscess is
forming on the top of his head, his
death is oJy a question of time.
—A farmer living in Canada,
twenty miles from Toronto, has dis

five hundred skulls and five times as
many leg and arm bones. Dr. Wilson
of the University is of the opinion that
it is an Indian ossuarv.
—They expect to be able to com
mence swinging the drill at Bald
Ridge No. 2, to-day. The unusual
depth of the third sand in this territory,
leads practical oil-men to believe, that
should more open or coarser sand be
found, it will be better producing ter
ritory than any that has yet lieen de
veloped iu this county.
—Bullets and other relics of the
great battle continue to be picked up
on the field of Gettysburg. Last week
a gentleman picked up a mashed bullet,
which had a brass button partially im
bedded in it—probably a ffy button,
which was struck by the bullet and
carried with it through the body of the
uufortunate victim.
—According to report they were to
have commenced grading at this end of
the new narrow guage route Monday,
but they did not do so. A corps of en
gineers Were iu town over Sunday and
are now along the route. We under
stand that the middle route surveyed
through town, or the one along tLe
north side of the creek, and crossing
it near Walter A* Boos' mill, is the one
decided upen, and that there will be a
depot at or near the Pittsburgh bridge.
—The total gold circulation of this
country is now $520,000,000, of vhieh
$356,000,000 is in actual circulation.
Since July 1, 1870, the gain of gold
coin and bullion has been $234,000,0 0.
and the total amount of gold in the
United States compares favorably with
the chief countries of Europe; England
and alone having a larger
amount. The showing speaks volumes
for the sound and satisfactory condi
tion of our finances. There is nothing
that makes national prosperity prosper
like a sound currencv and a clean credk.
—During the storm of Thursday last
the lightning played some queer freaks I
out about Mount Chestnut. The saw
mill of Mr. John Ralston, on the New
Castle road, thisside of Mt. Chestnut,
was struck in one of its corjers and
considerably torn; the barn of James
J. Stevenson in Mt. Chestnut, was
struck at one e>f its corners and rafters
and posts, etc., torn out, and the barn
of Hugh Bryson was struck in one of
its corners and its rafters a.d posts
etc., torn out, all happening about the
same time and in about same places of
the different buildings.
—Chicago proposes to get even
with St Louis by connecting the Miss
issippi and Lake Michigan by a canal.
This canal as proposed will cut through
sixty miles of country and thus con
nect the Mississippi River with the
Illinois, and caries of grain entering
the canal from the Mississippi River
will by the canal and the Illinois Riv
er l>e floated to Chicago, and there fall
into the already established grain
route to the Atlantic. This enterprise
is proposed to prevent the drain of the
great grain country by way of the Miss
issippi and New Orleans. It is there
fore a conflict of great moment.
—The members of the Legislature
from the oil producing counties should
be alive to the importance of the Pilot
age bill as affecting their own immedi
ate interests. Two-thirds of the petro
leum produced in Pennsylvania is sold
to foreign consumers anil exported.
Every cent, added to the cost of trans
portation is an indirect tax upon pro
ducers for the reason that they are
over-producers and have to take "what
they can get for their product. Pilot
age is a part of the cost of transporta
tion which comes out of the price of
oil, grain, cotton and every other pro
duct which we have to sell and which
foreigners buy from us.— Phi la. Rec

—A room in a Missouri basement
was stored with barrels of Danforth's
burning fluid A man went into an
adjomieg room and struck a match. In
stantly there wus an explosion, the
building wai in ruins and the ruins on
lire, and a number of men hurled into
eternity. There was an establishment
iu Cleveland some years ago, GD the
north-east corner of Ontario street and
the Public Sip i a re, for the sale of Dan
forth s burning fluid. Numerous acci
dents resulted from the explosion of
this fluid, and finally its sale within
the city limits was forbidden by law.
Is this the same death-dealing agency?
It will do well for the authorities to in
vestigate.
—To-day the two branches of the
York State Legislature meet in joint
convention and ballot for U. S. Sena
tors to take the places of Conkling and
Piatt. Yesterday according to the law
on the subject, they ballotled separately
with what result we have not yet
learned. The lb publican members of
the Legislature number 10f>. The Sen
ate caucus committee refused to join
with the House committee in a call for
a caucus, and the friends of Conkling
could not get 51 members of both hous
es to sign a call for a caucus. On Mon
day evening the administration men
met in conference. Fifty-seven were
present and notes were received from
thirteen more saying they would sup
port the administration. Resolutions
were adopted, pledging all present to
withhold their support from Conkling
Piatt. A compromise or an extended
dead-lock can he expected.

—A watchmaker in Newcastle, says
a Pittsburg paper, has completed a set
of three gold shirt studs, in one of
which is a watch that keeps excellent
time, the dial being about three
eighths of an inch in diameter. The
three studs are connected by a strip of
silver inside the shirt bosom, and the
watch contained in the middle one is
wound up by turning the stud above,
and the hands are set by turning the
one below. But perhaps the most re
markable thing about the liliputian
machine is that it works with a pendu
lum, like a clock, and pendulum will
act with ease and accuracy in whatev
er position the timepiece is placed,
even if it be turned upside down.
—The wonderful and hitherto un
heard-of feat has been accomplished of
transporting from Paris to Glasgow a
box of 'electric energy.' The box,
measuring about a cubic foot and
weighing some seventy-five pounds,
contained four batteries, which were
charged in Paris, and held electric en
ergy equivalent to nearly a million feet.
This was carried to Sir William Thom
son, at Glasgow, to be tested and
measured by him, and the power was
apparently preserved intact. It is be
lieved that the discovery that electric
power can thus be boxed and carried
will result in important advantage,
practical as well as scientific, and the
fame of it goes to M. Camillc Faure,
the French electrician,
—Senator Mitchell has evidentiv set
up for himself, lor he does not share
the Cameron view of the scrimmage
with Conkling. He says he thinks the
President is right and he intends to
stand by him. So far as Mr. Conk
ling's ability is concerned, he would
like to see him back in the Senate, but
so long as he maintains his present at
titude of hostility toward the Adminis
tration he considers him better out of
the Senate than in. Mr. Mitchell
thinks "it would be a cold day for the
Senators if Conkling were President,
for he would have his own way regard
less of what tley thought." He prob
ably would, but the chances of his ever
being President are not alarming at
this moment.
—lf you wants plums you must be
gin to do battle with the curculio at
at once. If you don't know the little
Turk, get your neighbor to show him
to you, and you will never forget him.
If you sprinkle your trees, fruit, limbs
and leaves with thin lime whitewash
and repeat iu after rain, you can save
most of the fruit The only other
method is to spread a sheet under the
tree, then trive it a sudden jar, and the
curculio will fall from the tree, and
you can dispatch him between your
thumb and finger. This, to be effect
ual, must be repeated once or twice a
day, until the seed of the green plum
becomes hard. These aie the two
most eflectual remedies known. They
involve some labor, but choice plums,
like many other nice things in this
world, can only be had at some ex
pense of time and trouble. Choice
plums are both pretty and good, and
are worth some trouble.
—A memberofa Pennsylvania bank
ing association, which was not incorpor
ated, sold his shares and withdrew.
He had been conspicuously advertised
as a director, and no notice was given
of his retirement, further than to omit
his name from the published lift of of
ficers. The concern failed. A deposi
tor sued this ex-director for his claim,
on the ground that the deposit was
made in ignorance of his withdrawal,
o! which notification ought to have been
given. The Supreme Court has decided
for the plaintiff Judge Storrett says :
Where an ostensible or known member,
of a copartnership retires therefrom, and
wishes to shield himself from liability
for further debts of the firm, it is neces
sary that the personal notice of his
withdrawal be given to all wro have
had dealings with the firm, and that
notice be given by publication, or oth
erwise, to all others.'
—Front the War Department at
Washington we have received a circa- j
lar staling that "there being now pend
ing in that department great numbers
of volunteer pension claims which can
not be satisfactorily verified for want
of information which missing records
of discontinued volunteer commands
would afford, and it having transpired
in many instances that officers of the
late volunteer forces have still in their
possession or under their control books
and other records pertaining to their
corps,divisions.brigades, regiments and
companies, their attention is called to
the fact that all such books and records
should be deposited with this office,
and they are earnestly requested to
cause the same to he forwarded with
out delay to the Adjutant General of
the Army, at Washington, District of
Columbia. No expen.-o, other than
postage orproper express charges (when
packages exceed four pounds, the limit
lor mail parcels), can be paid by the
Government."
—FATAI, RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.—
Mr. Jacob Reott of Summit township
and his wife, came to town last Tues
morniug iu a buggy drawn by one
horse, and while passing near the de
pot the horse frightened and ran off,
throwing Mrs Reott out and badlv
bruising her arm. She was taken into
the Boyle House where her arm was
bandaged and where she rested for an
hour or two, when she walked uptown
to see her daughters. The horse was
stopped, before it had gone very far
and the buggy which was broken was
repaired. That same evening the couple
I were on their way home, and while
| going down Jefferson street, near the
I Presbyterian church, the horse again
seared and started down the street,
j When opposite lloessing's store .Mrs
I Reott was either thrown out, or at-
I tempted to jump out. She was a stout
| woman, weighingperhaps two-hundred
i pounds, anil she fell heavily upon the
street, and although stunned by the fall,
she got up and walked to Spingler's
house! From there she was carried to
Kohler's, where she sat down on a
chair, and expired in a few minutes. It
i is supposed that she was injured intern
! ally by the fall. Mr. Reott held on to
the lines and succeeded in stopping the
i horse near the depot. He is a one urm
t ed man, having had an arm torn off by
I a thrashing machine some years ago.
—A dying woman in one of the
Southern States recently confessed
that .*he committed a murder for which
two colored men, tried and convicted
on circumstantial evidence, had been
bung some years before. That was
but one of hundreds of eases in which ,
circumstantial evidence has been deem
ed sufficient proof of guilt fur the met
in<r out of punishment, even unto the
death penalty, only to discover in after
years tnat the evidence, was fal e. .
Another illustration showing what
care ought to be exercised in regard to
this sort of evidence, though the cir- j
cumstantial chain seem complete, was
furnished lately. The body of a woman
was found in the woods near Gutten
ber, a suburb of Jersey City. TLe ev
idence were plain that she had been
murdered, and that the murderer had
purposely disfigured the countenance
beyond recognition. A hat, with a
large white feather, and a cloak were
found hid near by. That was ail the
basis there was to work upon in inves
tigation of this mysterious crime.
When the news had been spread abroad,
a German citizen of West Hobokeu an
nounced that his daughter bad disap
peared from home some time before,
and the description of the body led him
to think it was the missing daughter.
She had been enticed away by a man
of family who also lived in West Ho
bokeu. This nfevvs created threat ex
citement, which was intensified when
the father had seen the body. Ilis
daughter had a stiff and bent finger,
and that mark was found. Height, fig
ure and hair corresponded with his des
cription. The cape was recognized,
but not the hat. A shoe brought from
home mated in shape witn those on the
murdered woman ; and more convinc
ing still, the father reeognized same
hair switches as made for the girl from
her mother's hair. The
appeared complete, and the daughter's
betrayer was ordered to be taken into
custody on suspicion of being the mur
derer. At this juncture, when it was
considered certain that the clew had
been found, the betrayer's lawyer step
ped in and snapped the chain of circum
stances by proving the whereabouts of
the missing daughter, and taking the
father to her presence. The police then
followed another clew, which led them
to w bat is undoubtedly the true story
of the crime. Our purpose is not with
that. It is simply to point out how
conclusive seemed to be a set of cir
cumstances which yet proved utterly
fal-e. If the missing daughter had not
been produced as she was, if through
any accident of circumstance or real ig
norance of her whereabouts the abductor
had been unable to tell her whereabouts,
the suspicions against hi.ll would prob
ably have been sufficiently strong to
satisfy the authorities, and the search
for other indentity might reasonably
have been abandoned, with what ill re
sults to a man wholly innocent in this
matter cannot easily be foreseen. The
moral is that circumstantial evidence
cannot safely be accepted without the
utmost searching into its character and
completeness, and the exhaustion of
every means to test the circumstances
and their reliability. It is always
dangerous to accept probability as proof.
The law is a good one in every relation
in life, to hold a man innocent until he
is proven guilty

much trouble and expense, no one
seemed to know what ailed me, that
I was completely disheartened and
