SHOCKING lNHUMANITY.-A revolving case
OF birbariiy has been brought to light near
Wtiksbarre, Pa. An old man named Isaac
Blsbing, living in that vicinity, quarrelled
with his son Andrew, and In u ii OF rage he
seized a gun aud shot the boy in the back, from
the effects of which il is feared he cauuot re-
cover. 1t seems that the old man was a per-
feet demon, and some Of his acts OF barbarity
towards his wife and children would have
shamt d the widest savage. He would fre-
quently hang the younger children up by the
ueck until Lie was almost extinct, aud at 9th
er times he would hold their heads under the
water until they struggled in the agonies OF
death. Que OF The boys fed TO the house Of q
neighbor one day, badly burnt, aud stated tina t
