DREADFUL MoRTALITY.-One of the
most severe and painful cases of aff1iction
that it has ever been our unwelcome task
to chronicle, has recently taken place in the
family Of Timothy H. King, a highly re-
spectacle and well-to do farmer, residing in
Jackson township, in this county. Two
weeks since the family consisted of father,
mother, five daughters 1.-TWO of them young
ladies, and two sons, all of whom were
enjoying comparative good health. On
Sunday week a little daughter of some
eight or ten years of age, was buried, her
illness being of short duration. In day
or two thereafter the other members of the
family were all taken down with sickness
at the stomach, said by medical men to be
"milk Sickness" and after enduring great
suffering, on Saturday death came to the
relief of the mother and tho two eldest
daughters. On Sunday last their remains
were inferred, all three, we believe in the
same grave. On Monday another daugh-
ter ard son also died, and their remains
were deposited in the grave. At this time,
Tuesday, Mr.. King and the two remaining
children are dangerously i'll, but it is thought
that they have passed through the worst
stages of the disease, and may possibly re-
cover. In the short space of two weeks,
the grim monster, death, has entered that
once happy family, and carried away six
of its members, while the three remaining
ones cling to life with but feeble and un-
certain thread. Truly, sin life we are in
the midst of death" Lima, o., Gazette.

And another indictment for the embez-
element of one hundred thousand dollars
of the public money of the State.
This morning the Court met at 81
O'Clock. Mr.. Gibson's Attorneys moved
that he be admitted to bail, claiming that
he was not really guilty of embezzlement,
and that the charge was technical one
In regard to the Bonds they said that they
had been returned to the State, which fact
was admitted by the Prosecuting Attor-
ney, and that in this case the amount of
bail should be fixed only at such sum as
would secure his attendance to answer the
charge. The Court fixed the amount of
bail on the Indictment for embezzlement,
Of the bonds at SIC, 900, and Oh the other
indictment it 100000 the amount alleged
to have been embezzled.
Mr.. Gibson gave as his sureties on the
bonds, Robert G. Pennington, Abel Row.
son, and John d, Loomis, each one of whom
swore in open Coure that he was worth at
least $4,000. They acknowledge them
selves as bail fol. his appearance on the first
day of the next term of the Court in Oc-
tober.-State Journal 17th.

WAGON ROAD OVER THE WESTERN
PLA1Ns.-The National Lnteligencer learns
from private letter received by a gentle
man of Washington, dated Independence,
Missouri, on the lst of July, that portion
of the Wagon Road Expedition under
William M. F. Magraw, had taken up the
line of march, and that the remainder
would follow Immediately. Thirty wagons
and the larger portion of the force of one
hundred and twenty men were upon the
plains. The equipments of this expedition
are complete, and much is expected from
the well-organized corps of Messrs. Ma
graw, Amman and Lander, the superinten-
dent, distributing agent, and engineer of the
expedition. This route has been designat-
ed by the Department of the Interior as
the Fort Kearney, South Pass, and Honey
Lake Pacific Wagon Road.

The Warrington Co. Tragedy
Barbarity of Slaye.Cafch.
A DEMOCRATIC TR1r7upH

A DEMOCRATIC TRIr1MPH
We have letters from Washington coun-
ty which assure us that the slave who was
shot near Sparta, full account of which
we copied on Thursday, from the NASH
yiUe Democrat, Douglas paper in that
vicinity-by one Erskine Mansfield, (what
a name for nigger-catcher and murderer
to weary did moi, by his death escape the
personal violence of his enemies. The ruff
fan who alleges that he pursued the fu-
gitives from Missouri, dug up the corpse of
the murdered man after he was buried, cut
off his head with an axe, and bore it bnck
toward the region of the barbarism as q
trophI of his prowess! The Black DEM
ocracy of the vicinity applaud the act by
offering reward for the heads of all "trai'
tors and abolitionists"
Here is a fugitive from lifelong and
compulsory service. His heart throbbiDg
with an irrepressible desire for liberty,
love of which is planted within him, he
flies to Illinois, pursued by the human
blood-hounds that are on his track. They
get scent of their prey and put other
hounds on scent also. They oyertake
the trembling man on the highway, ac-
companied by two of his fellows, and with
out warrant or process of law, attempt an
arrest; the painting fugitive makes another
effort to elude his pursuers, and is shot
dead in his tracks. He is buried that his
dead carcass may not tsint the air; but
hardly is he in his grave before evidence of
his death is demanded; his body is rolled
out, his head is svered from the tunk with
an axe, and the Democracy look on and
cry Amen! to all that is dorez A JUS
tees Court sits for the examination of the
hired murderer; the death and its horrors
are CLOSED over with less care than would
be bestowed upon case of hog stealing /;
the self accused is "honorably" and prompt
ly' discharged; the democratic" organ
praises the nobleness of the action, and
the justice of the acquittal, and goes on in
the next article to that in which the trage-
dy is described, to another defence and
laudation of Douglas! Yet wd live in Hi
nois, and the nineteenth century !-Chi-
cago Tribune.

Devotion of n Mother.

The Montreal Gazette gives the follow
ing incident connected with the burning of
the steamer Montreal:
Among the note worthy incidents af the
disaster was the saving of her two children
by Mrs. Bloomfield, whose husband is in
the employ of the Grand Trunk Company
at Tomato. She held rope with one
band, keeping the head of one child above
water with tue other and holding the other
up by fastening her teeth in its dress. So
heavy was the load that two of her teeth
gave way and were lost, yet she still re-
tanned her hold. At last boat came to-
wards her, and men were screaming all
around her to be taken aboard. She could
not scream, but a man seeing her situation
brought the boat to her, telling them she
needed aid most. Then her strength gave
way, at the prospect of relief and safety and
she came near drowning ere she cobld be
lifted into the boat. She is a slioht. deli
cate woman in appearance and one wonders
how she was able to endure so much.

The Fire at the Utica LMnatiC
ASYiUm.

The partial burning of the State Luna
tic Asylum at Utica fortunately took plac
in the daytime. The fire was discovered
in the attic of the main edifce at in tn
morning, and before it could be subduet
the central building was consumed from
cupola to cellar. 1t is estimated that il
will require some 100000 to rebuild and
refurnish the apartments destroyed. The
fine colonnade at the front of the Asylum
was not damaged. The part destroyed
was four stories high, and was occupied
by the offices, reception room, dining room:
of half the patients, library, DC. The orr
gin of the fire is in doubt.
By great exertion the flames were kept
from destroying the wings containing the
patients. The West, occupied by the males,
was uninjured. The female wards were in
the Eastern wings. Thirty-six apartments
in this part of the Asylum were made un-
fit for occupation. Several persons were
badly injured by falling timbers and fire
DR.. Rose, one of the most respectable ply
sicians of Utica, was severely, and it is fear
ed, fatally burned. He was at work in
the highest story, when the timbers fell
and fastened him, surrounding him with
fire. Before be could be released, nearly
all the surface of his body was burned to a
crisp.
The patients were removed from the
halls exposed to the fire, and taken to the
groves in the rear of the Asylum. The
Herald says:
at was strange sight to see those un-
fortunate women brought out by their at
tendants, and escorted by our citizens
courteously and kindly to the grove. If
the ladies were lunatics the gentlemen es-
corted them with gallantry as worthy as
could have been extended to queen
One or two were wild and boisterous, were
profane or ludicrous. But those good men
led them as delicately, but as firmly as if
they had been their daughters or their
mothers. 1t was strange too, to hear their
hallucinations, Blessed be Almighty God,'
said one; .Nancy's prayers are heard, and
these walls are burning shouted auoth-
er; young man, 1 told you that the Lord
would break our bonds and let us 90 free.'
Painfully touching was another sight;
young and beautiful female, stretching her
well-turned arms through her window bars,
towards the ascending flames, in one long,
agonizing, silent supplication, as if for the
sparing of herself and the institution.
There were Four Hundred and Seventy
Patients in the Asylum at tho time; and
we record with profound thanksgiving that
no accident of any kind happened to any
one of them, nor did any one escape in the
excitement. All the patients are safe and
in their proper quarters"

AnAttrOcious Affair.

A Pittsburg paper mentions the arres
of the pilot and engineer of steamboat
for an attempt to sink rival boat on the
4th inst. 1t appears that jealousy has fol
some time existed between two ferry compa-
nies in that vicinity, which on the occasion
mentiond, took this perilous mode of exhi-
bition. The Pittsburg paper thus describes
the scene:
"Thc Committee of arrangements Of
the Liberty street Methodist Episcopal
Sabbath School, chartered the Black Hawk
TO convey the scholars, teachers and pa
rents to McKee's Rocks, on the Fourth of
July. While the Black Hawk was com
ing up the river, opposite Manchester, the
Patrick Henry left her landing at Saw Mill
Run, and putting out to the middle of the
river, stopped her engines and awaited the
approach of the Black Hawk, to within
about fifty yards. She then started and
came in collision with the Black Hawk, her
apron breaking down the guards. Several
women tainted, the children screamed, and
the male portion of the passengers were
blanched with fear. People on both sides
of the river shouted, and from their ae-
tions it was apparent that they anticipated
fearful consequences. Not less than five
hundred persons were on board the Black
Hawk.
"The Patrick Henry approached the
other boat second time, and again struck
her guards with the apron, and from the
maneuvering it was thought that the de-
sign was to sink the Black Hawk. The
state of affairs was now fearful. 1t was
feared that somo of the children would
leap overheard from fright. The boat was
deeply laden, while the Patrick Henry had
but two passengers, and is said to have left
her landing upon the approach of the Black
Hawk without waiting for teams. A third
time she approached the other boat, and
as 1t is now seemed clearly apparent that
the design was to sink the Black Hawk,
endangering the lives of all on board, sew
eral gentlemen, growing desperate under
the circumstances, seized pieces of stone
coal. One was hurled at the pilot, strike
ing the sash of the window, and was quick
ly followed by Others. AT this demonstra-
tion the pilot put back, and offered no fur
ther interruption"

Unmasking the Batteries.

The St. Louis Intrlligeneer regards the
die as cast-that the National Democratic
party is rent in twain. The avowal by the
Washington Union that the administra-
ton assumes the responsibility of Gov.
Walkers policy and acts in Kansas, and
has resolved to sustain them, is the broad
axe that hews 10 the division line. Says
the Missouri paper:
Now, let the South weep and howl
Let the Georgia State Convention re-as-
semble. Let its fre-eaters, instead of their
cowardly bolt of thunders against the
Democratic President himself! And let
the Richmond South, the Charleston Mer-
cury, and the New Orleans Delta unmask
their batteries, and hurl into the dust the
bulwarks of Buchananism that they helped
to build.

A Bogus Coin Maker in Full Op-
Grafton.

The st. Louis Democrat contains an &C.
count of the arrest of German engaged
in that city in the manufacture of bogus
coin. 1t says:
"He had rented two rooms in the upper
part of two story building and spent but
a few hours of each day there, keeping
doors, windows and blinds closed, and usu-
ally making his exit in an entire different
style of apparel from that in which he en-
tered.
yesterday morning when he had pass
ed in and shut himself up as usual, the Off
GERS determined to investigate his proceed
ings. They found his door fast and refus-
ed admittance, until they threatened to
break it down, when it was reluctantly
opened. The room was almost unfurnish-
ed and the occupant trembling with dismay,
the cause of which was apparent at glance.
Scattered about were smelling furnace
and bellows, various bright metals, metallic
washes and lustres, zinc apparatus for met
al washing and polishing, fine weighing
scales and cup weights, dishes of dull bogus
half dollars and quarters in rough state,
and other dishes of the same, brilliant, and
and silvery looking. The culprit had been
surprised while absorbed in his happy
amusement. The other room, which he
he also rented, was found entirely vacant.
He was at once filled with CONSERVATION
and begged most abjectly to be spared
his implements were gathered into his
trunk and taken with himself and his dish
es of coin to the police office, whence, after
examination, he was consigned to the cal
aboose.

DEATH TO THE FIsH.-The Lebanon
Star, states that the recent freshet in Dry
Run at Deerfeld, washed the poisonous
matter from the distllery on the Run into
the Miami river, and caused the death Of
tens of thousands of fish. Two tons it is
calculated, were thus destroyed. The mill
race of Mr.. Stubs, mile below, was liter.
ally choked up with dead fish.
Such is the Tirulence of the poisons used
in making liquor distillation. Yet men
guzzle it, become mad with it, and die
with it. The Warren county distiller, who
poisons fish as well as men, should be
prosecuted under the criminal law to pre-
vent poisoning liquors, and also under the
law to protect fish.
