Fire Near DeersvIIIe - Loss of
Hffa


We regret to learn that the dwelling house
of Mr.. John Ramsey, near Deersville, this
county totally consumed by fire on last We'd
nesday morning, and that Mr.. Isaac Hines
an old man, was so badly burned, as to cause
his death on Friday morning. The rcum-
stances, as near as we can learn, are as fol.
lows; Mr.. Hines got up early in the morn
ing to kindle fire for preparing the morn
ing meal. While walking about with a
lighted candle, he accidentally set fire to pa
per on the wall. In endeavoring to put this
fire out he tumbled down box full of news
papers hanging above, which, igniting spread
the flames rapidly Some. one opening the
doors at this time, the current of air spread
the flames with great rapidity Mrs Hines,
who is suffering with palsy was in an ad-
joining apartment. In attempting to rescue
the old lady Mr.. Hines clothes took fire,
and the burns received caused his DEATH
1t is feared that Mrs Hines cannot recover
from burns received.

PREPARE FOR MUcH SNow.--Our oldest
people, says the Toledo Record who have
carefully noted the signs of the times,
say that We will have an unusual quantity
of snow this winter They say that much
rain during the summer is always followed
by heavy falls of snow id the winter, and
claim that the character of the summer is
always a sure index to the character of the
winter in this respect Our last wet sum
mer;was in lS55--ten years ago-and it will
be recollccted shat the winter of 1866 af-
fordcd more fine sleighing than any winser
since.

On Saturday the 22d inst. as Mr..
A. L. D. Moore was coming to town.
about two miles east Of this place, on
the Fayetteville road, he saw two
horses standing in thicket near the
road, one having on a iady's saddle,
and the other with no saddle on; the
appearance of the horses excited his
curiosity, which was still more excl
ted on going little further by dis
covering a portion Of q lady dress
lying in the way. Upon looking
around be saw some objects upon the
ground about 80 yards from the road.
apd he also heard the cry of a female
voice calling for help. He immedi-
ately drew his six shooter, which he
fortunately happened to Lave with
him, and rushed to the spot. There
he found German girl in the arms
Of a huge giant negro, who was en-
deavoring to accomplish purpose
too horrid to mention. Mr.. Moore
captured the negro and brought him
to town; whereupon the citizens
collected together at the Court House
Col. B. Shropshire, was called to the
Chair, and n jury Of twelve citizens
were selected. The negro was placed
upon trial and a thorough investi ga
ton gone into.
The young lady stated that she
was ovcrtaken by the negro who ad-
dressed some vulgar remark to her,
she Immediately tried to ride away
from him, but hs seized her. threw
her from her horse and carried her in
his arms to the spot where they Were
discovered by Mr.. Moore-tllat she
struggled with the negro, who con-
|stantlv threatened to kill her, until
she BECAME completely exhausted.
The negro was told that the evil
dence against him was positive. and
the presumption was that b. had but
short time to live, and if he had
anything to say an opportunity was
then offered him.
BE stated that he was guilty OF
the crime and begged to be forgiven;
said his nam. was Yorick, that he
belonged to DR.. Tanner of Hog-Eye,
and was a runaway.
The jury 7rturned a verdict of
Guilty. and he was Immediately ia
ken out and hung.
In narrating the above we cannot
close, without awarding to Mr.. Moore
that praise which is duo him for his
timely rescue of a young lady, from
such a fearful peril, and for his
Judgment and tact in securing the
guilty wretch SO that justice might
be mrted out to him.-Sax Antona0
