Bradford reporter. [volume] (Towanda, Pa.) 1844-1884, 1857-01-08

DEATH OF Col. REAH FRAzER.-Col. Reah
Frazer, who, our readers will remember, was
few weeks ago. taken to the Insane Asylum,
at Harrisburg, in consequence of exhibiting
unmistakable evidence of mental arrangement,
died at that Institution on Tuesday last
Col Frazer was eminent at the Lancaster
Bar, and for many years most prominent
and influential leader of the Democracy of
that county He had some estimable traits of
character and most indomtable will and
energy and we believe, over-taxing his men
tai and physical energies, is supposed to have
caused his arrangement
Bradford reporter. [volume] (Towanda, Pa.) 1844-1884, 1857-01-08

SINGULAR CIRCUNsrANcE.-We some time
ago mentioned the singular marriage of DIR.
James n. Bogardus and Miss Hamilton, of
Kingston, Ulster County, New York. and the
death of the bridegroom a few minutes after
the ceremony. These events took place in this
city. The remains of the deceased were taken
to Ulster County, and after the funeral service
the lid of the coffin was removed so that the
friends could look at the face of deceased for
the last time, when it is said, {" a very singular
change passed over the countenance." All
present noticed it. The body was at once ia
ken from the coffin and every effort made to
restore animation, but without success and af-
ter several days the remains were consigned to
the dust
Bradford reporter. [volume] (Towanda, Pa.) 1844-1884, 1857-01-08
Judge Wilnot.

This gentleman has won for himself a proud
position in the Republican party of this State.
In former years, when he acted with the Demo
cratic organization that party repoSed especial
confidence in him. They felt that there was
q latent power-a power to dare much and to
accomplish much-n that strong, manly form,
aud close, hard-set head Hence, the Old, cor
rupt sposmen feared him, and the Younger
and purer portion OF the Democracy recogmz
ed him as fit emboI ,mcnt of their rreSher aud
better impulses.
When in lS47, he offered his celebrated
proviso to the " Three Million f" Bill, he was
iuvoluntarily hailed from all sides as man of
talent and of will, who coald rise above party
trammels, and cspouse and maintain boldly a
great principle lie at once attracted the at
tenton of the people Of this State and the Ma
ton. Since that time, although prosecuted and
caumnated by the South and the doughfaces
of his own party, he has not only maintained
his previous reputation, but he has risen to e,
| and is now recognized as one OF the leading
men of the country
The Republican party Of Pennsylvania owe
to him most unhounded debt of gratitude
debt which it will not only gladly recognize,
but discharge fully, at some future day, when
it shall have risen to that strength which will
one day cover it with victory. The most cln
nent positions within its gift will assuredy be
conferred upon him The man who, by his
personal influence could bring such powerful
aid to the sup ort of freedom in the North as
he has done, must needs be proclaimed a chiy
alrous and gallant spirit. He deserves the
name which the Republicans of Philadelphia

SHOCKING AccIpENT-A shocking accident
occurred at Washington, OH Saturday night ;
the wife of Judge Daniels, of the Supreme
Court, having been burned todeath. Mrs.
Daniels had repaired to her slccp;ng-room, and
commenced di>rObing, preparatory to retiring
for the night, when, heing very near sighted,
she did not perceive candle that was stand
lug on the hearth, or the flames which com
municated to her clothes, until they complete.
ly esveloped her. She then ran from the room,
shrieking for assistance. Her motion, of course
only added to the strength of the flames, and
before any effectual assistance could be ren-
dered, she was so shockingly burned that she
died after eight hours of suffering. She was
an estimable lady, about 80 years of age, a
daughter of the late DR.. Harris of Philadel-
phia, Chief of the Bureau of Medicine and
Surgery in the Navy, and leaves two children,
the youngest about six months old. Her ter.
rible death has caused much regret among a
large circle of friends and the community at
large, and much sympathy is felt, on all hands,
for the Judge in his bereavement

UNIvERsALIsTs AS WITNESSES IN North
CARoLINA-Judge Battle, of North Carolina,
has written letter to the National Iateiiigen-
GER explaining the case before the Supreme
Court of that State, which gave rise to the
report that UniverSalists were declared to be
incompetent witnesses in North Carolina
The question is still undetermir ed by the court
We quote as follows from the letter above re-
ferred to:
"In the case of Broun agt. Bearer, report
ed in Jones Law Rep, SIC, the Supreme
Court, in an opinion delivered by myself, do
indeed affirm the Judgment given in the court
below by Judge Manly, but it was upon point
which rendered unnecessary review of his de-
cison upon the competencyof Of the witness
The question arose upon the probate of a script
which the Judge permitted to be established
as holograph will after he had rejected one
Of the subscribing witnesses as incompetent,
on the ground of his being a Uuiversast-
The Supreme Court in the opinion to which
have referred, held this to be proper, and con-
cluded thus: This renders the question as to
the conn etency of one of the sub cribi G VT
nesses unnecessary, and makes it improper for
us to render an opinion upon it,

CoNvIcrIoN OF THE WALL STREET FOEGER.-
Charles + Huntington, the Wall street forgcr
in New York, has been convicted and SEN
fenced to the State prison for four years and
ten months-the highest punishment allowed
by law. The jury were out over four hours
and when they came in the prisoner, it is stat
ed listened to the announcement of the verdict
without the slightest perceptible emotion.-
His counsel endeavored to have the sentence
postponed, but the Conrt refused te grant the
request. Judge Capron, in passing sentence,
alluded to Huutington'S position in society, and
said that could weigh nothing in mitigation
Of the penalty indeed, the circumstances of a
high BIRTH good moral and intellectual train
ing, rather increased than diminished the crimi-
nality of the act, as one thus reared and re-
strained 10y the influence of correct associations
had less inducement to do wrong. And when
crime was committed under these circumstances
it only evinced a greater depravity in the
offender He should, therefore, in passing
sentence on the prisoner, inict upon him the
full penalty of the law, which at this season of
the year was four years and ten months i'm
prisoument, at hard labor in the State prison
