Two Fools in Philadelphia have been
.disgracing the State by fighting a duel.
.They are both still alive, and unhurt, as
one fired In the air and. the other came
nearer hitting his second than the man
.he fired at. There was a woman in It.
Alabama is now mentioned as a good
place to settle in. A number of men
'from Maine went to De Kalb county
about a year ago, and they now give the
most flattering accounts of their success.
Land was bought for $1.23 an acre, heav
ily timbered, well watered and with lux
uriant grass. Snow seldom falls, and no
shelter is needed for cattle. Consump
tion is unknown, and the temperature
mild and equable. Many of the settlers
"are making considerable money out of
Angora goats, which are bred and raised
easily and profitably.
' The jatice still goes on. On Monday
of last week Wm. H. Kenible the absent
briber made his appearance at Harris
burg and went to the jail where he wait
ed while word was Bent to Judge Pear
son, The Judge declined to take ball
till be had consulted with his associate,
Judge Henderson, and the Sheriff very
kindly allowed Mr. Kemble to go where
he pleased till the next day. A hearing
was then had and it being made to ap
pear that the accused had come of his
own accord the judge discharged him
on $5000 bail until the 20th inst. Judge
Pearson took occasion to say that he did
.not know whether he would Tecognlze a

Strange Llghlnlng Freaks. ,
Lightning has heen doing marvellous
things in Virginia and Kentucky lately,
ond it lsu't a very good time of year for
lightning either. Near Charlottesville,
Va., a little girl was standing at a win
dow looking out upon the storm, when
a stunning and blinding flash of light
ning photographed an accurate portrait
of her upon the window pane. Near
Louisville, in a recent thunder-storm a
tombstone was struck by lightning in
the city cemetery, and the imprint of a
cedar tree that stands close to the tomb
stone is impressed .upon the stone so
perfectly that every branch thereof is
recognizable. The. same Impression
appears on the opposite face of the stone.
Perished in Tho Snow.
' On -Saturday a week, an old woman

inor-oing. A log belonging to her was
found faithfully keeping watch over her

Court Proceedings. Notwithstanding
the large amount of business that our
Courts have disposed of in tke present
year, tUe opening of the regular April
term seemed to gatker a larger audience
than usual, within the walls of the court
room. This may be accounted for in
part by the fact that the newly -elected
constables are sworn in at this term,
and it was also generally understood
that the temperance cohorts were going
to make an attack in force upon the
spplicants for license to sell liquor.
The bell -was rang at 1 o'clock P.M.,
and it echoes had hardly died away
when the announcement was made from
the Bench that court should be opened
nd in response to the crier's invitation
to every person having business before
the several courts to come forward and
they should be heard, the constables
were the first to present themselves with
their returns from the various districts
they represented. District Att'y Wallls
quietly remarked as he finished a hasty
examination of the returns that they
had brought in but little work for this
term of the criminal court. The new
constables for the ensuing year were
called when some thirty came forward
and solemnly swore that they would
obey the Constitution of the United
States, the Constitution of this Com
monwealth, and perform their duties
with fidelity, etc. It may be, with, a
slight variation from the Pirates of
1'enzanoe that
"When constabulary duty's to be done, '
A constable's lot is not a pleasant one."
But nevertheless they are a respectable
and efficient corps and will no doubt do
their duty whenever and wherever
necessary. -Noticeably among the num
ber was Jacob Freet, who for the thirty
fifth time took upou himself the duties
of the office. Borne day Watts twp.,
Will Jose Jacob Freet, but the will never
fill his place w ith a more competent,
honest, upright official. The grand jury
were charged as to their duties and the
work that lay before them and they left,
the court room to sit in judgment upon
the various bills of indictment that the
Com. would lay before them.
The various applications for license
were taken up, when It was announced
that thirteen remonstrances to the
granting of license had been filed. Those
to which no exceptions had been made
were first disposed of, but before grant
ing them Ills Honor Judge Juukln, stat
ed that in ortler tosuppress agreatevil In
many communities, the court proposed
to enact a promise or pledge from every
patty to whom license whs granted, and
then calling up Benj. Bitter of Loys
ville, whose reputation as a landlord is
so well established, the intentions of the
court was explained and he was request
ed to sign it and was followed by each
successive applicant to whom license
wfts granted. The following is the
pledge enacted :

QUARTER SESSIONS.
On Wednesday morning the Criminal Court
was opened. The first cnee called was the
Coin. ts. Henry Harp. Sometime In last De
cember the ttore of Mr. Thornton at LobU's
Run was robbed, and the goods tbus taken
were subsequently found In the borne of Augus
tus Kliuesmlth In HarrlBburg, and the devel
opment of the case gathered around It a great
deal of Interest. Without intending to climb
the genaloglcal tree to where the flri-t Harp
budded, we must go back to the oldest one.
Not "The Harp that once in Tara's hulls ,
The soul of music shed,
but the Harps who was the proline progenitor of
as ungodly and graceless a progeny as ever was
spawned hi the Commonwealth. He died some
time since at Heading leaving to survive him at
least two Kins one of whom wns Hie accused in
this cue and two daughtors. One of tnesetliiugli.
tors foecameclie wife of the notorious MpUleuliii
ber who ended his life on the gallows recently for
murdering a tramp with whom this wile bud tuk
up In his absence. The other became the wife of
a desperado named Merosenfrilr. with several ali
ases. Harps widow married Klinesiiilth and they
all moved afterwards to Harrisburii. Here Wer
osenlritz made his Headquarters at the home of
Kliuesmlth against his protestations, and here bis
jmls gathered and the defense was that the stolen
goods recovered were brought there byliini and a
companion without any explanation as to where
they came from. The defendant proved au alibi
sufllelantly strong to cause the Jury to doubt
whether he had a hand In taking or concealing the
fluids and he was acquitted. Although a joung
man. If the account he gave of himself outside of
the Court room be true, a single honest particle
would tlnd as much room In his structure as a
stump tailed calf lu a forty acre pasture. Dlst.

Com. vs. Augustus Kltneemilh. Charge receiv
ing stolen goods This Deft, was the step father
of the Detf. In the above case, and II there was an
unspoiled egg in the whole nest It was him, The
evidence In the other case, showed conclusively
that he was Innocent of any guilt In this case mid
the Dlst. Atty. therefore declined ottering any evl
deuce to tue Jury and a verdict of not guilty was
taken. Dist Atty. Wallls & Bponsler for Com.
Mc'Alllster for Deft.
Com. vs. John Benson, was an indictment for
stealing a collee pot from filestore of Ezra P. Tlt
7.ell, In Milterstown. There wasa'sr an Indict
ment against him for stealing groceries and dry
goods from the store of D. M. Ulckabaugli In the
same place. Ills olleuces wereof a petty nature,
but the good citizens of MlllerMnwn began to re
alize that his room would be much bel er than
bis company. J. (J. McAlister, Esq., was assign
ed liiin as counsel at his request, and after hear
ing part of the proof aga nst blur, bis counsel
deemed It best to plead guilty and thro himself
upon the mercy of tue Court. This was done lu
both cases. He was sentenced to one year lu the
ICastern Penitentiary, and the borough of Millers
town will have to do without lilni the best way
they can, until the trailing arbulus Is again climb,
lug the hillsides, and the swallows are twittering

Coin. vs. Peter Wertz. Indictment l't count,
keeping a tippling house; 2nd count, selling liquor
to a minor. As to the tlrst count the defendant
asked a continuance ou the grounds that It was
not laid In the Infm mat'ori. and pleading not guil
ty on the fecund count he went to trial. The pros
ecution alleged that while allerdlug bar in Ihe
hotel in the Uth Ward in the borough of New por t,
he gave a drink of Intoxicating liquor to h.nier
E. Miles a minor. Delendunt denied any knowl
edge of Iris having taken a drink at the bar, and
fin liter stated that having heard him d eel him a
short time previous that he was of ge, and from
bis geueral apoeurance, he would not have refus
ed him adrlnk on the grounds of minority. The
Jury returned a verdict of "not guilty," and Peier
went home to pick his flint and secure Iris ammu
nition for another light at the August sessions on
the other count. Hist, Att'y WalTis, Helbert aud

This ended the criminal business for the term.

After a careful Investigation wblcli was only
concluded on Tuesday night, the result was a
refusal of license to Peter Werti of Newport,
and tbe cases of Wm, Bbearer of Newport,
Bhtiman Miller and Henry Martin of Mlllers
towu were held over.
Dining tbe progress of the court an ex-Judge,
tbe Hon. Jacob Sheibley of Bprlng twp., now
over four score years of age, made his appear
ance In tbe court room, and by a special Invi
tation of Judge Juukln, took his scat on the
Bench. E. B. Doty, Jr., a member of tbe
Juniata county bar wns present part of tbe
week and by bis genial disposition aud agreea
ble manner won a strong: expression of good
feeling from the members of tbe bar. On
motion of Clms. A. Barnctt lie was admitted to
practice In the several courts of this county.
The Sheriffs deeds were acknowledged lu open
court on Wcdnefdny, and a considerable
amount of general business was transacted at
odd Intervals until about 8 o'clock on Saturday
P. M. when court adjourned until tbe 4th day
of Mny next. On Monday afternoon District
All'y Wallis called up tbe case of Com. vs.
Wm. Hess, and Com. vs. James Kitner. Tbeae
were both charges of desertion, but no prose
cutors appeared and the cases were dismissed
and the costs directed to be paid by the
county.
Ou Tuesday morning the civil list was
opened and the first case called was Jacob L.
Llildlck vs. Cbae. Troutman. The defendant
In this cafe originally had a judgment on
record against tire plfl'. which he collected by
means of nn attachment execution which he
Issued against one of his creditors, and at the
same time collected an amount of usurious
Interest beyond the legal amount of judgment.
To recover back the excessive Interest, suit was
instituted before a justice of the jwaee by
Liddlck who recovered judgment for tbe
amount of Ills claim. From this judgment
Troutman appealed, and this case was tbe
appeal thus taken. After hearing the case the
Court decided that the case could not be sus
tained for want or jurisdiction in the Justice
who rendered the judgment and that the
remedy lny in the Court of Common Pleas.
PUT. took a non suit. M'Allieter for pliL
Potter and Bponsler for deft.
Uriah Bbtiuinn Adinr.etc, of Robert Thomp
son dee'd vs. W. R. B. Cook, followed. Bull
was brought hy pill', to recover tbe balance
due upon a contract of tbe following nature.
Robert Thompson In his lifetime was the owner
of a tract of land In Juulata county. Deft,
secured the leave to cut locust pins thereon at
a certain price per thousand. These pins are
pieces of timber used by shlp-bullders. 81,521
pins were cut and taken away, and In addition
l berto Thompson boarded dell's, hinds while
the work wns going on. Certain payments
bud been made aud the balance claimed was
S 'I 04. The defease was that Jos. Foreman
was really the contractor with Thompson and
that Cook was to purchase the pins from
Foreman, but upon application of Thompson
to him, he agreed to become responsible for
the payment of all the pins of a marketable
qnalliy delivered at the railroad t that only a
certain percentage of the plus thus delivered
were tit to be shipped aud for all Unit bad been
accepted he had already paid, and as to the
balance they were useless except for firewood.
The jury found for plif. a verdict of ?103. 87.
The old common luw recognized the right of
married women to receive certain allowance
designated as "pin money," but this Is tho
first case on record In our courts where pin
money was allowed to the estate of a married
man. VV. A. Bponsler for pill'. W. II. Bpouslcr
and M'lntlre for deft.
Dr. A. A. Murray ts. The Farmers' Bank of
Millet-Blown was the next case. While tbe
bank was lu operation Dr. Murray became
endorser on a bank note for Dr. B. T. Linea
weaver. At tho same lime Dr. Murray was a
depositor in tho bank aud when tho note be
came due the funds he had nn band were
applied to its payment. The defense was that
the note contained an agreement to pay a five
per cent, collection and under a ruling of tbe
Bupreme Court was therefore not negotiable,
aud hence there was no liability on tbe part of
the endorser to the bank, and as Dr. Murray
did not owe the bank they had no right to
apply his funds to tbe payment of the debt of
Dr. Llneaweaver. Tho Jury rendered a verdict
lor plir. for fJl 119, but the question Involved
being mainly one of luw, tho Court directed
the entry of a bill to show cause why a new
trial should not be granted. M'Intire for pllT.
Burnett for deft.
The case next taken up on the olvll list was
Jacob fie slier vs. Henry Gamber. Tills was
an act Ion of ejectment to recover possession of a
lot of ground lu Mar jsvllle borough. It was a lot
to which Henry (lumber hud an equitable title for

since some " Patent Klght" gentlemen Induced
David McCoy to ourchuse territory for the vend

a note without the clause "given for a Patent

who discounted It and who Induced the bearer,
hlng eton Mieulfcr. to add his name to that of Mo
Coy as belter security for Its payment, and then
assigned the note to the present pltf. The de
fense wns that the machines weie worthless and
also that there was a material alteration of the
note, which relieved McCoy from payment. On
motion of plaintiffs the Court directed the name
ol Hlieatlor to b stricken from the note, and then
went to trial. Verdict for pllf. for H3 Wi. Amo

to recover a tract of Innd in Saville township.
Prior to the year Kim it was owned by John
Waggoner who sold it to his step-son, A. M.
Miller, by a parol agreement. Miller took
poKsi'ttsion of it and lived on it for somo time
wli'-n Imcomiiig involved financially, lie sur
rendered it to Waggoner and left the State.
Altci winds Waggoner died-and his Adminis
trator sold the hunt under nn order of tho
Orphans' Court for payment of debts, upon
condition, however, that the purchaser would
not lie requited to pay any purchase money
until it was ascertained that ho would get a
good title for it. Upon the other side, it wns
alleged that Miller liml paid all of the pur
chase money to Waggoner, although ho never
had received a deed of conveyance for it, and
that before luid surrendered It back to Wag
goiieiv Millie I; had entered a judgment
against liiin which became a lien upon his
equitable interest. Upon this judgment an
execution was issued, tho laud sold and pur
chased by Mlnick, who claimed It by virtue
of tlm Sheriff's nVe.1 lio held therefor. Tho
enso being one likely to Involve a considerable-
amoiiMt of difficulty and uncertainty-of
title hut-after, at tho suggestion of the Court
a compromise verdict whs agreed upon bv
the i terms of which, both tho Administrator
and Miniik are to execute a deed to the pur
ehnse and the purchase money to be divided
