New NAME.-Amongst the emblems at first
suggested 10 he embraced in the coat of arms
for the new Kingdom of South Carolina, was
rattlesnake at the root of palmetto tree, in
the act of making spring. In view of the
sympathy shown for the cause OF South Carroll
na and other rebe lious States by the late Dem
ocratic party, it is becoming quite common 10
call it the ;'Rattesnake Democracy" This is
designation which will be very apt to stick.
The resolutions of the Democratic State Com
mittee. which met at Harrisburg last week,
show that the managers of the party in this
State are determined to deserve the name.
Our Pennsylvania rattlesnake organization, in
those resolutions, are silent in regard to the
conduct of the seceSsionists, but violent in
their abuse of the North. They have no de-
nunciations for the repeated insults which
have been given TO the National flag in the
Sonth-no condemnation of the robbery of
public property by armed tcaitors-no apol-
ogy for infiicting on the country admiuis-
tratiou consisting of such conspiratorsas Cobb,
Floyd, Thomson and Thomas. On the contra
ry they warmly sympathize with these abomi-
nable traitors. Since they cannot rule the
country, they have resolved TO ruin it. But
the people of the North will keep these rattle
srakes harmless, although they may rant and
bluster for time.

CATHcART TRIES TO KILL HIMsELF.-On last
Monday morning, Feb. 4th, when Mr.. Rich
ards, the keeper of the Jail in this place, en-
tered the cell of John Cathcart, under sem
tence of death for the murder of his wife, he
found him weltering in blood, and upon exam
ination, discovered that he bad attempted to
cut his throat. Mr.. Richards Immediately
called in physician, who dressed the wound.
The weapon Cathcart used was wrought-iron
spike, perhaps two-and. a-half inches in length,
which he had rubbed down to a keen edge on
the two opposite sides. The wound is upon
the front of the neck, Immediately above the
opening in the breast bone, and is dangerous
though not fatal. 1t is probable that the CO.
agulating of the blood around the wound, as
he lay upon his back, prevented him from
bleeding to death. The deed, he says, was
committed about 2 O'Clock in the morning.
1t is not known where he procured the spike.
The jailor had taken similar one from him
some days previous.

FATAL ACcIDEsT.-On Monday evening last,
The 4th inst, Mr. Daniel Ogden, of Lawrence
township, killed, while working in his
coal bank about mile south east of town, by
q rock which fell from the ceiling of the bank
upon him. II seems he went to work after
dinner, but did not return in tho evening as
usual, though frequently remaining away till
after dark. Fearing that something had hap
pencd, couple of his sons were sent TO the
bank, and not receiving an answer to their re-
peated calls, they entered and by the light of
the burning lamp which he had used, discov-
cred him PROSTATE and lifeless under the rock, !,
which is 10 inches thick and s feet by in
dimensions. Help was procured from town,
the rock removed, and the body taken to the
house. 1t is evident that he was digging in a
kneeling posture when the accident occurred.
and that the rock struck him on the back and
shattered the spinal column. Mr.. Ogden was
sboat ftty years of age, a quiet, peaceable
man, and leaves a wife and number of chill
dren to mourn his distressing death. His fam
ily deserve the sympathy of the community.

The Projection OF PUBLIC PROPERTY
The President has at last wisely determined
not to interfere further with the distribution of
the necessary force to protect the public prop
erty at ashngton and elsewhere, but to leave
those arrangements where they properly belong
to the War Department and Gen. Scott. Had
that course been adopted in the beginning,
much difficulty would have been avoided.

Dix had given orders to the Adams Express
company two weeks ago for $780, 900 of the
1889 900 of bullion and coiu in the hands of
the Sub-treasurer, but the agent feigned some
excuse for delay, and so the State authorities
appropriated both mint and money.

FIRES N CLEARFIELD CouNgy.-Last We'd
nesday, Jan. Both, the large stone house, at
the vest end OF Curwensville, occupied by Mr..
Vim. Bard, was destroyed by fire, with most
Of its contents, including considerable guam
tity OF grain. The house belonged to Gen.
John Patton, but was not considered of much
value by him. The loss of Mr.. Bard will prob
ably exceed 5000. The origin of the fire is
not positively known. 1t is supposed, howev-
er, that burning SCOT from the chimney fell
upon the floor and ignited it.
We regret TO learn that on the night of the
3Oth, the valuable saw-miI of BENZ. Yinglng,
Esq, located on the River, in Burnside town
ship, was also burned down. The mill had
been in operation that day, and it is conjec-
tured that the fire used then was blown about
by the wind during the night, and caused the
destruction of the building. The loss will
probably be near S 900.
On Thursday evening, 3lst January, about
Socioek, an alarm of fire startled the citizens
our own town, and on rushing into the
streets they discovered that the large dwelling
house of Hon. G. r. Barrett was burning in
Tue attic story. Ladders and buckets were
speedily procured, and the most determined
9lorts were made by men and women to stay

FORT SUMTER.-The South Carolina Volun-
teers are urgent for an attack OH Fort Sumter,
and Gov. Pickens has sent an aid to impress
upon Col. Hayne the necessity of bringing bis
protracted embassy to close, and formally
demanding of the President its unconditional
surrender. They cannot now retreat without
dishonor, and nothing but the withdrawal of
Major Anderson could relieve their false posi-
tiGn. AS neither side can consistently recede,
collision seems only to involve question of
time. Major Anderson must sooner or later
be re-enforced, because his supplies will not
last three months. Vessels drawing twelve
feet OF water and over can enter the Beach
Channel, and there are plenty OF officers and
volunteers ready to run the gauntlet of Morris
Island and Fort Moultrie. The Star of the
West approached within a mile of SUMTER
and would have landed re-eu forcements but
that it was supposed to have been in posses.
sion of the Carolinans. Mr.. Toucey's excuse
for not ordering the Brooklyn in was unfoun-
ded. She entered in 1858 easily.
