Cruel Treatment.

The Cincinnati Gazette relates case
Of inhuman treatment of little girl a
bout eight years old, by fiend named
J. W. Fisher The girl was bound as an
apprentice to Fisher, and had given Of
fence.by absenting herself something O.
yer two hours from Fishers house, and
for this he chastised her by hanging the
poor creature by her thumbs to the raft
ers of basement room, and after reno
wing portion of her clothing struck her
on the bare skin (as he stated himself
some twelve or fifteen times with piece
of horse breeching, about three feet long,
or as he termed, well whipped her. But
this did not appease his ferocious anger,
and the girl was left secured as at first,
by the thumbs, until her inhuman master
had gone distance of two hundred yards
to his stable, fed some horses and washed
himself, which occupied at least half an
hour. when she was released.
This excited great Indignation in the
neighborhood where he lived, and four
females who were heard to declare "such
a wretch was not fit to live" and that ga
coat of tar and feathers was too good for
him." &C., were charged by Fisher with
giving him great cause to fear that they
would kill him. The women were of
course, on the facts being known, honor
ably discharged.

P0,cdcr Driren LocomotireS.-It is sta
ted that Mr.. Dagget, of Roxbury, of
Flying Machine" notoriety, has lately
finished a model of an engine which he
proposes to work with powder instead of
steam. 1t consumes about two ounces of
powder per mile, with the weight of four
or five cars attached; can be used on
common roads, attached to common car
riages, and is perfectly nOiseless in its
operations We hear that several sue
cessful tests have been made in the pres
