men who supported the Government, -and
put in their stead rebel soldiers, some of
whom had not doffed the gray uniform. I
have seen him again, during the July riot of
1866. skulk away where I could not find him
to give him a guard, instead of coming out
as a manly representative of the State anti

and his conduct has been as sinuous as the

dishonesty is more than must be expected of

IMPORTANT LAWSUlT.—heavy rerclict:—
The suit of Butler's heirs vs. Pennsylva
nia Railroad Company, was tried at ,Middle
burg, Snyder county, last week, and on Fri
day evening the jury rendered a verdict of
€518,000 for the death of Co}. Butler. • Mrs.
Butler was killed at the Fame time, and a
suit is also depending for her death. A mo
tion for a new trial was made. The accident,
it will be remembered, occurred this side of
Lancaster, and from all the information that
- could be obtained at the time it was . difficult
to decide what caused it; but from the testi
mony on the part of the plaintive it was
shown that the oars were crowded, that the
train was running at a high speed, and that
the sudden turning of axle and whcels(caus•
iog the loss of life) was a rotten tie.
John Dipple, landlord of the 131ack Horse
Hotel, Lewistown ; -After receiving license,
posted the following unique notice "To all

GERVLEMEN: As I am about to prosecute

desire a fair valuation to be placed on all the

BURIAL PLACE, of BOOTlL—General L.
C.-Baker has published a diary in which he
details- his connection with the 'secret ser
vice' of the War Department during the war
of the Bebellioc. He makes the statement
in regard to the disposition made of the bo
dy of John Wilkes Booth:
General Barnes, Surgeon General United
States Army,was on board the gunboat where
the post mortem examination was held, with
his assistants. General Barnes cut from
Booth's neck about two inches of the spinal
ebitrin through which the ball had passed;
this piece of bone which is now on exhibition
in the Government Medical Museum in Wash
ington, is the only relic of the assassin's bo
dy above ground, and this is the only muti
lation of the remains that ever occurred.
Immediately after the conclusion of the ex
amination the Secretary of War gave orders
as to the disposition of the body, which had
become very offensive owing to th\s condi
tion in which it had remained after death,
the leg, broken in jumping from the box to
the stage, was much discolored and swollen,
the blood from the wound having saturated
the underclothing. With the assistance of
Lieutenant L. C. Baker, I took the body
from the gunboat direct to the old peniten
tiary, adjoining the old arsenal / grounds, The
building bad not been used as a prison for
some years previously. The Ordinance De
partment had filled the ground floor oells
with fixed amunition. One of the largest
of these cells was selected as the burial place
of Booth. The amunition was removed, a
large flat stone lifted from its place, and a
rude grave dug; the body alone dropped in,
the grave filled up, the Stone replaced; and
there rests till this hour all that remained of
John Wilkes Booth.
TUE HONEST MAN.—Most men are not BO
dead to moral principal as not to feel a sport- I
taneous glow of admiration for the man who
does right, because it is right, no matter if
he does make less money by it. Some men
say he was a fool or a lunatic not to make
the most of his advantage, right or wrong;
but the heart of many is loyal to rectitude.
We look, and admire and praise. We can
not help it. He who in a selfish, covetous
age, when all men are fighting and scramb
ling for money, stands tip strong in his in
tegrity and modestly does the thing—not
that is legal, not that is exacted, not that is
costomary, that is as others do, or as many
preach, but • does the thing that is right
—such a man is worthy of all imitation. if
the heavenly minded are few in the world,
are not the righteous few, like wise? A mor
al character that is genuine is - as rare as
Diogenes' men, when hunted for with a lan
tern at noonday.
A fidgety traveler at a Western town was
dogging the baggage master for his luggage
before he could.get at the bottom of the hugh
pile, and continuing the annoyance, the other
addressed him thus: "Mister, it's a pity that
you wasn't born an elephant, and then yeld
have had yer trunk always under yer nose!"
i=!l
A - DDEIJ
Boas, etc.—We observe that a few hogs
arc still permitted to run at largo in our town.
This is not by any means carrying out the
"hog law" to the letter. We would also in
form our High Constable thatjf he will take
the trouble to visit the alley running west
from Bell's Pottery ho will there find the
carcass of a dead cat. The sickly season is
approaching and public safety requires that
al: such nuisances be removed. It would be
well enough we think for this official to per
sonally-inspect the alleys at least once a
week during the summer season. Many of
them are filthy enough just now to breed
pestilence. A person caught throwing a
dead carcass of any kind into an alley should
be severely dealth with.
MAD Doch—Some little excitement v• as
occasioned on Tuesday by ' a report which
was put in circulation that a veritable "mad
dog" had made his appearance on one of our
streets. Not having any legally at oWii - i;ed
"dog catchers" no ono felt inclined to pur.
sue, so the Brindle departed as he ca me,un
molested. Whether mad or not, it would
be well for persons to be on their guard and
not expose , their children too much to the
sheets and alleys, especially after nightfall.
This is the season when hydrophobia pre
vails most among the canine species, and in
other sections, according to our exchanges,
the_country of late has been infested with
an unussnal number of such rabid dogs. Look
out for them, boys.
TEIE PROSPECITS.—The wheat fields in
this section continue to present It most lux
uriant appearance, but we are still not with-
out well-grounded fears fur the safety of the
crop. The wheat not being billy in Lloseem
yet must make harvesting a couple of weeks
later than usual. This being the case, the
crop is certainly more liable to blight from its
greatest enemies, Rust and the ravages of the
Milk Weevil. But we can only wait and
hope that these dangers may be Providers•
tially averted.
DEA.TII OF 21.1f15. BAKER.-WO learn from
