Excitement about nrazini.

The movements of Mazini, the great Italian
agtator, are watched with extraordinary vigilance.
A letter to the London Daily Ne,cs, from Naples,
April 39th, says:-A few days since the U. S.
frigate Cumberland sailed into the Bay of Naples.
The police were excited beyond measure. MAJ
zini, said they, was on board. Marine and land
spies were placed in every direction; the tele-
graph set to work; the officers from the CumbeI-
berland narrowly watched, and persons sent on
board to identify the agitator. After all, nobody
could find him. Much discussion ensued, and at
length some boldly asked the captain of the Cum
berland, Is Mazzn sailing under the stripes and
stars! Certainly not, was the reply, and
tranquility was again restored Nevertheless or
ders have been sent to the coast guard to watch
narrowly night and day. So Mazzini is still good
cause for alarm

Tlle Gardiner case, J: J:

After q trial which dragged through several
months, the jury in the Gardiner case, being una
Bile to agree, have been finally dischasgeds As
all of our readers may notremembef the points at
issue in this case, we will briefly eaptulats them.
Dr. George A. Gardiner, the individual on trial.
procured some time ago, from the boardof Mexi.
can claims, an award of four hundred and twenty
eight thousand dollars but circumstances subse-
quently led the suspicion that the memorial and
other papers were false on which this award was
obtained. To test this question, and to punish the
Doctor, if guilty, at one act, he was charged with
having falsely sworn to those papers, and indicted
for perjury. s,sl,a a.sl. -s.ssss s zs,s
We understand that the government 10 still 90
completely convinced of the guiltof DR.: Gardiner.
that it has determined to try him again. but, this
time on a charge of forgery. His brother, J.
Charles Gardiner, is likewise to be arraigned his
alleged offence being that of conspiring with his
brother to perp citrate the fraud. Under all the
circumstances, it does not become US to express
an opinion on the guilt or innocence of the accus-
ed. If, however, they have defrauded the govern
ment in the way it is asserted, we trust new jury
will pronounce SO unhesitatingly, and that tho
punishment of the prisoners will be prompt and
severe.-Phila. Bulletin. et

o'clock the whistle of the locomotive was heard
at distance, and in few minutes tramp, it came

several open cars loaded with passengers. OF
course, the arrival of the cars created quite
buzz. Everybody was ON the qai uive-men, wo-
men, and children hurried to the station to see
the ELEPHAsT-pufing, blowing, and whistling,
as it was, and apparently conscious that it was, !,
a change was wrought upon our whole town in

tie of Businessmen walked and talked faster
children clapped their hands-the ladies, ever
their faces lighted with smiles. Everything SEEM
ed animated. The price of wheat and produce is
on the rise. Goods declining, and selling dog
cheap. Come on, then, all who have produce to
sell or wish to buy mercandise. Now is the time
for good prices and good bargains. At one
o'clock the cars left for Bayard. Hereafter they
will run regularly one or more trip every day
When the times of arrival are permanently fixed
we will announce them. Persons wishing to go
East, West, North, or South, have no trouble or

were rescued by a wrecking schooner while the

"One of the Miimi powder mills blew up to-
da, with tremendous explosion, tearing every
thing to pieces, it is about miles fran this place.
but it made the houses shake as if it had been an
earthquake. and breaking all the windows for
nearly two miles around the scene of destruction.
There was no person in the mill, the hands had
left short time before. There were some car
penters at work about quarter of mile off put
ting up another mill where one had blown up
about two weeks ago, three of whom were hurt
by the fragments of wood. but not dangerously" !"

Terrific EXPLOSION.

Tho city was startled last evening little after
eight o'clock, by tremendous explosion, which
occurred on board the propeller Eclipse, new
steam tug, recently brought here from Detroit.
While winding in the river near Madison
street bridge, her boiler exploded scattering the
fragments of the boat in all directions, and sink
ing her Immediately, in fifteen feet of water.
The engineer, Peter Fairbanks, (colored) was
blown into the river, and very seriously scalded,
also wounded by spllnters. He was conveyed to
his residence and attended by DR.. Max Myers
His recovery is doubtful. ....s-
Fairbanks was engineer of the propeller Ros-
sitter the past season. ai
s. Crawford, fireman, is missing, and supposed
to be killed. The captain, J. c. Myman and the
balance of the crew, consisting of George Hows,
C. Boyce, and Spencer Smith escaped unhurt.
The force ofthe explosion was such as to throw
portion of the boat, six feet wide by twelve
long, distance of fifteen rods, striking the barn
of G. R. Roberts, and breaking in the roof, while
piece of eight inch timber, six feet long, was
thrown several rods further, nearly burying itself
in the grou nd. The hull lies sunk this morning
directly across the river, and has the appearance
of being broken in two. ~4~s
The Eclipse was built at Buffalo last season,
and had an engine of 100 horse power. She
was valued at $4,000. The boiler was new, and
built by Degroff & Kendrick, of Detroit. Cap
tain S. M. Johnson, and Richmond g. Co., of
this city, recently purchased interest in her of
C. R. Blackwell, in connection with whom she
was brought here to be used in towing vessels

For the Portage Sentinel,
Neutral Papers No. i.

ME. EEnTTNEL:-In my former communication,
q spoke of the Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post, which processes to be neutral in politics,
but at the same time in its editorials and selec-
tions respecting foreign relations is violently
partisan. wish to caution the public against
such papers, which evidently receive pension
from fsreien government which pays them for
abusing their own. There is another six by nine
paper. started in Cleveland by H. NJ Addison,
called the Harpoon, which / subscribed for, on
the recommendation of Miss Wright, who lectur-
ed here on Temperance, supposing that it was
temperance paper, and that it would be neutral
in politics. But in this, it appears, that was in
a great mistake, for Mr.. Addison informs me in
his last paper that it is not neutral in any thngand
that it isas much Free Soil paper as tits Tenn
perance paper. am sorry.for this;as it mighthave
done much good as q temperance organ; but the
good that it might do as such will be entirely
tice the Harpoon to call the attention Of the pub
lie to the fact that it is professea Free Soil pa
per, and not temperance paper, as twas sup
posed to be by me, azd as Miss Wright recon-
mended it to be waen subscribed for it. do not
wont temperance lectures, either male or female,
to seitclr from Promiscuous audience suste-
nance and support for a Free Soil paper on the
score of it being a temperance paper, when, like
the country press in general, it supports temper
ance only incidentally. warn the Democrats
of the Reserve to be on their guard and not to be
taken in by these Free Soil temperance lectures,
who only make temperance pretext by which
they surruptiously introduce their Objectionable
Free Soil papers among Wings and Democrats.
Now if temperance lectures intend to enact the
''Maine Law" they had better be honest in this
particular. The Harpoon should be returned by
every Democratic and Wing subscriber, to the
publisher, as intend to do with the one sent to
me, with a notification not to send any more of
them. do not want to be deceived either by
temperance lectures nor by neutral Editors
Now reliable temperance organ might do some
good to the temperance cause. but Free Soil
paper incidentally supporting temperance and
only for political hobby can do no kind of good
but great deal Of harm.

Can you tell?

An exchange gives its readers the following
advice:
"a very safe course for those handling paper
money, would be to have nothing to do with the
paper of the banks of the District of Columbia.-
There is no telling what is good and what bad. -
We should like to know if every thing connec-
ted with other banks is perfectly clear, SO that no
one will be cheated. We are merely prosecuting
an inquiry, and do not wish to be understood as
intimating that paper currency is not the best
that has ever been devised.
