Jolin Harper of Penn township, was
kicked a few days since, in the stomach
by a horse, but was not seriously hurt.
(FYrom reports current, there are per
sons who visit the ISIg Buffalo Creek,
that are not acquainted with the ilsh
laws. '
IQJ. Attig Bpahr and B. P. Mclntire,
KSq., succeeded in capturing 21 fine Imss
with other fish, one day last week. The
finest string this season.
On Sunday, last week, F. B. Hoover,
killed in Spring township, two black
snakes, one measuring seven feet, five
inches, and the other five feet, seven
inches.
A fine hog belonging to P. McNemar.
of Centre tp., was found dead in his Held
a few days since. Some person had killed
it with a pitchfork.
The body claimed to be Albright's
was not bu ried in a field as it was stated
it would be, but in the grave yard at the
Hill Church.
Will our correspondents please remem
ber that though we are niuch pleased to
get "news items," we do not wish
articles purely personal.
SWe are sorry to record the death of
r. John Folk, an old and highly re
spected city of Carroll twp. His death
was caused by an apoplectic stroke.
Geo. W. Lobaugh had his hand bad
ly lacerated with, a circular saw at
Cook's Mill at Newport on Friday last.
He will probably have to get his thumb
amputated.
The Lewistown Sentinel says : A large
hog jumped off a freight train at the red
rock on D. A. Esterline's division one
day last week, and singular to say, was
none the worse, as it was gathered up
and shipped on next freight.
The change in the weather on Thurs-'
day was probably caused by the phe
nomena of Mr. Henry Bentzel, of this
place going to York county on a visit.
It certainly is a remarkable move for
Henry to take.
There will be a pic-nic held in the
woods of John Albright, near the Lu
theran church in Buck's Valley, Sat
urday, August 30th. All are invited to
attend. Horse-feed will be furnished on
the ground.
Jesse Johnson who was arresed on the
charge of aiding Albright to elude jus
tice, had a hearing on Habeas Corpus,
before Judge Junkin on Friday, and was
discharged for lack of evidence on the
part of the commonwealth.
Mr. Isaac G. Black, formerly; of this
place, but now of Philadelphia, in com
pany with seven or eight of his Sunday-school
scholars of Mr, John Wau
amaker's Church, spent last week fish
ing along Sherman's creek. We are
pleased to be able to state that they met
with good success, catching a lot of fine
cat-fish, eels and bass.
Ezra Lamborn, of West Bradford twp.,
Chester county, claims that he has the
cheapest and most accurate weather
indicator known. It consists of a piece
of calamus which he carries in his
pocket. When it becomes soft it is a
sign of rain, and when hard, clear
weather will follow. He has tested it
for a number of years, and is fully con
vinced that it is equal to any indicator
known. West Chester Republican.
M On last Thursday evening as Mr. Wil
lhnn Weaver, of this borough, accom
panied by two young men from Me
chanicsburg, were coming up through
the Narrows in a buggy, they ran into
a wagon which had been left standing
in the road by some careless person, and
knocked three spokes out of their vehi
cle and otherwise demolished it so badly
that they were compelled to walk to
town and lead the horse.

Collision. About 0 nine on Monday
ntght of 1
Inst Meek, a buggy containing
Mrs. Oliver Bice and her daughter, and
a carriage driven by a son of Bev. P.
Sheeder, collided opposite the residence
of Mr. Mclntlre in this borough. Mrs.
Rice and her daughter wore thrown
violently to the ground as their horse
was going at a rapid rate. Miss Bice
was not much hurt, but her mother
was considerably injured, mostly inter
nally. She was taken in Mrs. Edgar's
house and later in the night was moved
to the residence of old Mrs. Klce, in
this borough, where she was cared for
till Saturday, when Bhe was so far re
covered as to be able to be taken to her
home. Mr. Sheeder's carriage had one
wheel badly broken, while Mr. Bice's
buggy was not much injured, though
the horse went on home without a
driver.
Is It Albright ? The report that we
gave last week of the finding of a body
in the cave at Qlrty's Notch, which had
been identified as the body of Albright,
seems to have made this strange case
still stranger. The opinion was so gen
erally held that it was a " put up Job,"
that it was determined to have another
inquest held by the Coroner. Conse
quently he accompanied by the District
Attorney and a jury consisting of J. M.
Smith, foreman ; B. F. Miller, F. A.
Fry, Col. John Hartzell, Samuel P. Crist
and J. It. Tate, left for the scene hoping
to get there before the body was buried.
They arrived about half an hour too
late, but at once had the corpse lifted,
and went at the unpleasant task of ex
amining the putrid remains. So badly
was the body decayed, that the head had
fallen off and had rolled down under
the arm. Therefore much inspection
of the contents of the coffin was out of
the question. The jury however took a
look at the cave, and examined, various
persons whose evidence was not of the
positive character, and was rather con
flicting. They met several times, but up to
Friday evening had not agreed upon
any verdict, five thinking it not Al
bright's remains, and one feeling satis
fied that it was. The two physicians
who were taken along as experts, also
agreed to disagree, one feeling positive
it might be possible for a body to decom
pose so rapidly, and the other feeling
certain such could not be the case.
Public opinion seems to be divided,
while the large majority feel satisfied
the finding of the body was a " put up
job." In connection the following letter
from a reliable citizen of that part of the
county, will be of interest. We give it
as showing the feeling of many persons
residing in that vicinity.
Watts Township, August 20, 1870.
Ma. Editor : I see that you have
swallowed the story of Albright's sui
cide. Will you allow me to tell you a
few things about this remarkable case V
I have come to believe that the longer
you live the more you find out, and in
this case lor certain. I was present at
the farce called an inqueBt on Sunday
last (though I admit I could have done
better at church) and seen enough to
convince me, that one of the biggest
frauds of this fraudulent age (no politi
cal reference intended) was being pre
pared to pour down the throat of a
gullible public. I have no hesitation in
saying that the farce was pretty well
played, but it lacks a thing or two to
make it hold together. In the first place,
I was on that mountain within two
hundred feet of the cave the Saturday
before the murder, and studied a power
ful smell, but I differ from the young
chap who afterwards smelled a smell
from the fact that I thought it was some
dead animal, and did not care to find it,
while he thought it Albright, and at
once hunted for it. What particular
smell there is about Sam Albright when
dead that should differ from any one else
I can't tell, can you V But I will get to
the inquest again. Care was taken to
take only testimony of persons known
to be kindly disposed to Albright, and
even they could not say it was him,
while I am certain it was not him.
First, the hair of the corpse was longer
and very much darker than the hair of
Albright; second, the corpse was one
that had been dead several weeks at
least; third, there was no appearance of
blood having come from the wound.and
fourth, it wasn't Albright at all, as it
was a shorter man. But, eay some per
sons, " the body was identified by a
scar." In reply, I say that it is easy to
describe scars on a body that had been
previously examined, and I must say I
have no personal knowledge of such
identification having been made.
Now you may ask how did the body
found, get there just at this time if it
was not Albright. This is one of the
many questions that are asked in con
nection with this strange case, and I
frankly say I cannot answer this any
more than I can the many others. There
have been several other singular things
happened in this vicinity and they will
continue to happen until the peniten
tiary is the boarding-house of six or
eight chaps that live near here yet, even
if Albright is away, which I do not
think the case. I have no doubt he is
within four miles of the place I am now
sitting and that he is cared for by some
of his "cronies" till this thing blows
over a little so that he can with more
safety travel West. Of course I do not
.now that this is so, but it is my belief
and I have good reasons for having
such a belief, and this opinion is, I
know, shared by many others in this
vicinity.
.There is also a belief entertained that
the murder was planned in advance,
and that some of his friends knew or
it before hand, and I am not the only
one that thinks Miller was brought here
on purpose to be killed. If such was
not the case, why did the girl bring him
here at all, knowing, as she sayB she did,
that Albright had threatened his lifer
Why. if such was not the case, did Al
bright borrow an extra plBtol on antici
pation of Miller's coming.
Perhaps I have already occupied
more of your space than you will care
me to use, but I wish to say in conclu
sion, that I hope neither the detectives
throughout the country nor our home
officials will lessen their vigilance, for
they may rest assured that the murderer
of W. K. Miller is still unlmried at any
rate. Should he be caught and tried
the publio will be much wiser on many
points that now seem obscure.
Watts.
The verdict of the Jury which held
the first Inquest, which our correspon
dent calls a farce, is a singular docu
ment, but no more singular than many
other points in the case, but we give it
below bo that our readers may form their
own opinion of it.
Perry County, ss.
An Inquest indented and taken in
Watts township in the county of Perry,
the 17th day of August, in the year of our
Lord 1H70, before A. E. Howe, Esq., one
of the justices of the peace, in and for
the county aforesaid, upon the view of
the body of Samuel E. Albright, late of
Buffalo township, county aforesaid, then
and there lying, on the oaths of Jacob
Wagner, Thos. M'Elvy, Harry Wright,
George W. Frank, Isaac Straw and H.
M. Shrauder, good and lawful men of
the county aforesaid, who being duly
sworn and affirmed and charged to in
quire on the part of the Commonwealth
when and where and how the said Sam
uel E.Albright came to" his death, do
say on their oaths or affirmations, that
the said Samuel E. Albright, not hav
ing the fear of God before Tils eyes, but
being moved and seduced by the insti
gation of the devil, on a day unknown
in the year aforesaid, at an hour un
known, at Watts township, at what Is
known as Glrty's cave, and being then
and there alone, with a certain revolver
of the value of $15, which he placed to
his right temple, then and there with
the revolver aforesaid, voluntarily and
feloniously, and of malice aforethought,
shot and killed himself; so the jurors
aforesaid say that the said Samuel E. Al
bright then and there in manner afore
said as a felon of himself feloniously,
voluntarily and of malice aforethought,
himself killed, shot and murdered him
self against the peace and dignity of the
said Commonwealth.
In witness whereof, as well the afore
said Justice of the Peace, as the Jurors
aforesaid, have to this inquisition put
their seals on the day and year and at
the place just above mentioned.
We are also informed by another per
son who is reliable that he noticed the
bad smell whUe passing the notch on
Friday, the day after the murder, and
his wife noticed it and spoke of it to
hlm,when she passed on the Sunday
following, which was only three days
after the murder. These reports are
from such a source that we are com
pelled to believe that the corpse found is
not the remains of Albright.
There are two other important points
developed by the inquest that seems to
make the doubt as to the corpse being
Albright's still stronger. One is, the
knife found in the pocket and recogniz
ed as his was not rusty, and the other is
that the hammer of the pistol rested on
a cap that had not been discharged.
This latter fact would render it certain
that it was not a case of suicide with
that pistol.
Juniata County. We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
Mr. Henry Llmbert, of Susquehanna
township, dropped dead at his residence
last Tuesday evening. His age was 77
years, 8 months and 10 days.
On Friday morning last, two freight
trains collided at the lower end of Pat
terson, destroying about fifteen empty
freight cars, and badly using up one of
the engines. Nobody hurt. It seems
an impossibility for one train to pass
another on the same track.
On Tuesday evening, the 11th inst..
while Mr. Henry Limbert, an aged and
respected citizen of Oriental, this county,
returned to the house from his work on
the farm, apparently in his usual good
health he dropped down dead, just after
having entered the house. Cause, heart
disease. It is somewhat singular that
Mr. Limbert,havlngbeen married twice,
lost both his wives in the same way.
Cumberland County. We copy the fol
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week :
The tri-state plcnio and agricultural
exhibition at Williams Grove, Cumber
land county, on the 27th, 2Sth, and 20th
insts., promises to be a monster a tiki r.
The county fair will this year com
mence on Tuesday, September 80th, and
coutinue four days. Capt. Bogardus and
son will be a special feature of the occa
sion, and will astonish the visitcis to
the fair with their wonderful leats of
marksmanship.
Shortly after noon on Tuesday Mr.
John Peters, residing at the corner of
East and North streets discovered his
stable to be on tire. The alarm was
promptly sounded and the fire compa
nies hastened to the spot, but no water
could be gotten upon the fire in time to
save the burning building, and the en
tire stable together with the slaughter
house adjoining was burned to the
ground. The tire originated ' in this
wise : Mr. Peters some time before went
to his stable smoking his pipe and while
in, the bowl of the pipe dropped oft" the
stem. He hastily picked it up and fix
ing it on to the stem came away without
thinking anything more about it until
he discovered the stable to be on fire,
when It occurred to him that In all
probability the flra originated in the
way described. Tills may be a lesson to
persons who are In the habit of smoking
about stables and barns and claim there
Is no danger in doing so.

In reading a certain newspaper, I saw
an advertisement to this effect, "that In
some parts of Europe they raised wheat
that weighed eillbs. per bushel, and
would like to know of any that would
weigh within three pounds of that." Al
though that is a very large weight for
wheat, yet it can be surpassed In the
prolific little vale, namely Sheafier's
Valley. Wra. Esterline raised on a
clear land on the side of a steep moun
tain, wheat that weighed 071bs. per bush
el. That this is a certainty we are sure,
because he brought two bushel of it to
Mr. A. Fuhrman's mill to be ground,
which Mr. Fuhrman weighed and found
it Weighed 134 pounds. And what is
still more, when Mr. Esterline came to
the mill for his grist he went home with
joy and not with grief, triumphing
over 1)0 pounds of flour from 2 bushel of
wheat ground and manufactured by A.
Fuhrman.
Mr. Fuhrman said, had he ground it
as close as he ground some for our Coun
ty Alms House, it would have made 100
pounds of flour, as he ground a grist for
them that made 40 pounds to the bushel,
it being not tolled. As Mr. Fuhrman is
a man that has mercy on the poor, he
endeavors to make nil the flour out of
their wheat he possibly can. Anox.
tKT A child, aged about two years,
belonging to Mr. Hiram George, of Fay

made its way to a low bee hive which
was set close to the ground, upon which
little innocence threw itself. The bees
being thus disturbed commenced gather

Guarding "The Hermitage."
A soldier who was detailed as guard At the
Hermitage, the former residence of General Jack
son, thus tells gome of his recollections of that
time:
"In the spring of 18S5 1 was detailed liy General
Thoinat to report to Mrs. Barah Jackson, at the
Hermitage as a safe guard, to the property and to
protect lier and her sister, Mrs. Adams, Irom
wandering hands of soldiers and civilians, who
desired to carry oft" all the movable property, as
relics. The hickory mantel was a great tempta
tion to these visitors, as they could handily pry
out pieces of It with their Jack knives. The car
required alt my attention to prevent parties from
riage nouse was auoiner poini 01 interest, ana IC
cutting tassets on, and otherwise clesnol lntt
them. Some person had broken a spoke out of
the wagon made out of the ship constitution, and
carried It oil before I was sent there. On the 4tU
of July, I was considerably amused by an Inci
dent that happened in the carriage house. There
were two parties, strangers to each other, in the
carriage house at one time, each party having a
lady dressed in black ; one of these (lark robed
ladles asked my permission to get Into the old
General's state carriage, and a gentleman of the
oilier party thinking it was his wife (who was the
other lady in black) Jumped in on the other side,
and wickedly kissed her. Imagine the situation,
1 can not describe it. The gent's apology was
that he thought It was his wife, and he wanted to
say that he bad kissed his wife lu General Jack
sou's carriage.
General Washington's office chair was also nn
object of general interest, It stood In the hall,
and each visitor from the imposing lirlgadier
down to the vain Lieutenant, would with great
deliberation place his august carcass In It, thiiiK
