On Friday last, an Irishman, named JAMES Otto,
was found dead near this borough, on the Peters
burg road. He had been intoxicated, and fell,
head leremost, into the gutter, at the side of the
road; and, either the force of the fall, or his inabili
ty to extricate himself from his inverted position,
caused his death. The coroner held an inquisition
era hint, after which the Overseers of the poor took
him in charge, and buried hint the next day.
CO' The annually repeated ridiculous farce of
" review day" came off in this place on Wednes
day last. The gallant militia officers were, of
course, in their glory; and the highly distinguished
" Independent Jaw-Bone Band," composed of young
colored gentlemen, ( ! ) diginguished themselves
still more by marching at the head of the battalion,

The Baltimore Sun says that the Repeal Asso
ciation of that city was dissolved a few days ago,
chiefly on account df the speech recently delivered
by Mr. O'Connell before the Irish National Repeal
Association. The abuse heaped upon the United

we should suppose to be well calculated to dissolve
all the repeal associations in the country.

Gov. Skunk's Individual Liability
System---how it Works.
When GOY. Shunk took the Choir of State, he
proclaimed that no bank charter could be renewed,
or new institution created during his reign, unless
It had the individual liability principle incorporated
into it—and the faithful shouted paeans to the wis
dom and foresight that had da*ned upon the lynx
eyed, expansive mind of the new Executive. Their
representatives were obliged to ^ toe the mark," and
hang upon these soulless, cannibal associations the
right of punislipig mortal bodies. The Governor
gloried in seeing his wisdom (a wisdom never be
fore made visible since the days of Salomon) ac
knowledged, and now the people have the satisfac
tion of seeing the effects of this important Locate
co principle carried out. The bill for the re-charter
of the Carlisle Bank, was passed with the individ
ual liability proviaion, and signed by his Excellency
as a great favor to the inhabitants of Cumberland
county. A meeting of the stockholders was called
on Monday of last week, who, after mature delibe
ration, and being enlightened with all the informa
tion in their power, REJECTED 'I'IIE ACT by
a vote of 579 to 2—and the consequence will be
that the $250,000 of the stock that bank loaned
amongst the people, will have to be drawn in and
put into the pockets of the stockholders. The law
yers and the Sheriff will have plenty of business in
harrassing the community and filling their pockets
in consequence of the distress brought upon it thro'
the striking wisdom of•our rulers.—Hui.
Whe Temperance Cause.
At a recent anniversary in New York, of the !
Anierican Temperance Union, some interesting
facts were stated. The good cause is stffi onward. I i
The results among seamen during the last year,were ,
indeed gratifying. No less than 8000 signed the.
pledge. The Marine Society of the post of New
York, numbers 17,400. The influence of temper-
ance is seen in the fact that in 1892 and '43, 784 :
'vessels were wrecked with the loss of 1:44 lives, 1 :
while in 1844 only 208 vessels and but 105 lives
were lost. Notwithstanding the continuance of the
spirit rations, several of our men-of--War have be
come teMperance ships. Of the drew of the Co.
lumbits, the flag ship in the Mediterranean, 450
ecameri arid 5 officers have renounced theirgrog. , —
From many of the officers, and :150 of the ship's
company of the Cumberland, a petition has been
fortilarded to Washington, praying for the abolition
of the spirit rations.

A Woxnuityt, ENGINN.-A Lohilon paper says
that "a wonderful engine has lately been construc
ted by Professor Reinagle, who is securing patents
in every civilized country , of the earth; The power,
which is self-produced in the engine, is obtained
frotn condensed air, which, though coolly managea
ble, begets an immense force, the present engine,
which stands on a apace not exceeding two feet
square, having a power equal to five hundred and
aixty-eight horses. For pumping water out of
mines it is gravely proposed to use a 10,000 or 20 ; 1
000 horse power in order to do the work promptly.
l it is stated, that, with the present small engine, two
, hundred and twenty tons can be propelled at a rate
of ttventy-five to thirty miles per hour. The de
scription of the action of the machine is very vague,
hut it is said that several very eminent and scientific
men have examined it and expressed their astonish , .

was crossing the Miami river on horseback, with his

stumbled and she tell into the water. Her lover
hastened to her assistance, When she threw her arms
around his neck. The current carried them both

in each other's arms. On Sunday the body of the
young man had been recovered, and between one
and two thousand persons were gathered to teach

of a frightful destructive earthquake which was ex
perienced at Mexico on thb 7th of April. We have
now to add a repitition of this awful disaster in the
Capitol on the 10th of April.
An examination of the papers has failed to enable
us to discover many details of the amount of ruin
• and desolation occasioned by this convulsion, but
froth the fact that the journals unite in describing
its effects as terrific, we presume the destruction
must have been great. The Diario of the llth

that private letters furnish a gloomy picture of the
desolation that has fallen upon Mexico. The
" Hesperia" of the 12th states that the earthquake
of the 10th completed the destruction of the cupola
of Santa Teresa and increased the damage done to
the churches of Santa Domingo and San Francisco.

devEarta: Counsue.--We lately met with an
accohnt of an incident, which occurred in the town
of Weser, in Germany, in which a remarkable de
gree of courageand presence of mind was manifes
ted by a lad only seven years of age. Ho was
playing one day with iris sister of four years old,
when he was alarmed by the cry of some men who
were in pursuit of a mad dog. The child suddenly
looked around him, saw the dog running towards
him% but instead of making his escape, he took off
hie coat, and wrapping it round his arm boldly fa ,
cod the dog, and holding out the arm covered with
the coat; the animal attacked it. and worried the
coat till the Ilieh cadre up, who being armed with
clubs, killed the dog. The men reproachfully as
ked the boy, why he did hot run, and avoid the dog,
which he could so easily have done. Yea, said the
little hero, I could have run from the dog; but if I
had, he would have attacked my sister. To protect
her, however, I thought Of offering him my coat,
which he might tear at till you should come up and
kill him. The men, es well they might, first ad
mired trio courage in facing the dog; but they were
more astonished at the prudence and firmness of
mind discovered by this phenomenon. The con
duct of this wonderful child furnishes a useful hint
to persons of more mature age, in protecting them.
