Amateur HangIng.-Going up ON IL

amateur Hanging. -Going up on the
Atlantic road the other night we saw a
little by-play which was comical to the
spectators. A couple of young people
of the male and female persuation had
been having an animated argument up
on some interesting topic, perhaps
whether they should call upon a minis
ter at the next stopping place. At any
rate, he was persistent and angry. and
she reluctant and pouting. AS the train
neared Leavittsburg, the bell-cord was
detached at the end of the car, prepar-
atory to separating the train. The end
of the rope hung beside theseat whence
the young man glowered upon the trav-
cling world Partly for fun and partly
to brighten his companion he jumped
up, and, throwing the cord about his
neck, pretended to hang himself. just
at this moment the brakeman at the
forward end of the car seized the rope
and gave it tremendous jerk to draw
it out. The twitch upon the cord almost
lifted the young man from his feet, and
made him see stars that were not down
in the books. The young lady jumped
up with feminine shrek, and caught
hold of her lover to keep him from
being drawn headlong through the cord
loops. AS he settled back into his seat
it was hard to tell which had the
whitest face, even when they came in
close contact a minute after in labial
proclamation of peace. We think the
minister at the next town got a fee that
day.-RenO (Pean.) Times.

Typc-settIng Machine in England

AepS-SSAshbs maShhAc f1 Gnsfdhu.--
Hattersley's type-setting machine has
been in operation during the past six
months in the Office of a newspaper in
Hull, England. 1t is said that by the
use of this machine clever compositor
can set up and Justify at the rate of
between three and four thousand types
per hour, and that much larger num-
Der per hour can be be set mp by those
better accustomed to the manipulation
of the machine. 1t should be under
stood that the English method of meas
uring type is by the ''n" instead of sbe
''m;" the "n" being considered the
average size of the letters of the alpha
bet. This English machine, therefore,
sets about one-half the amount per
hour which is accomplished by the
Alden machine, an American invention.

Arrival of military Prisoners

On the 18th inst. twenty-siX military
prisoners left Little Rock, Arkansas, where
they had been tried and sentenced by
courts-martial, for imprisonment in the
Ohio Penitentiary. They were sentenced
for various terms and for various offenses,
alleged to have been committed while in
the military service of the United States.
They arrived at the depot in this city yes
terday afternoon, guarded by a detachment
of negro soldiers belonging to the 54th reg
iment Of United States Colored Infantry,
under command of Capt. David Clammer,
the officer in charge.
The prisoners appeared, whatever their
original offenscs may have been, as though
they had been pretty severely punished
already. They were wan and detected; {;
their clothing was soiled and worn, and
their general demeanor that of men TO
whom life had but few charms. The twen-
ty-siX prisoners were, as to race, nearly in
the proportion of one-half white men and
one-half negroes. They were brought
hitherin pairs pinioned or fastened together
with iron bands. Generally white prison.
er was coupled with a black one. Perhaps,
though we have no information on that
head, they were equal in the crimes OF
which the military courts had found them
guilty. At any rate, the white military
officers that had these prisoners in charge,
seem to have thought proper thus to humil-
late and degrade the whites, in order, prob
ably, to soothe and elevate the negroes
whom they may have regarded as more en-
titled to sympathy and consolation. This
would seem to be making marked dis
tinction on account of color"
The prisoners were marched from the
depot to the Penitentiary under the escort
of their darkey guards, and delivered over
to the authorities at the Prison. -.

An Extraordinary Exhibition.

During next week. commencing on Mon
day evening at the Opera House, the citi-
zens of Columbus will have the opportunity
of witnessing an exhibition of very ex-
traordinary Characteristic great tableaux
of " Paradise Lost" The tableaux have
been exhibited in all the principal cities of
Europe and America, and have attracted
universal interest and admiration. Aside
from the beauties of these tableaux, in an
artistic point Of view, there is sublime
mystery connected with the subject that at
tracts the attention of the audience, as no
similar exhibition has the power todo. The
conception of the rebellion in Heayen-the
contest for the supremacy by the disaffect-
ed "one-third of Heavens Hosts"-their
: overthrow and subsequent attempt to re-
gain power by corrupting the purity that
existed in the garden Of Eden as depicted
in the language of the immortal Milton,
and represented by these tableagx, are fol-
lowed with absorbing interest by the au-
dience. "'' y" 'A. '.'
During the exhibition of this great work
in Columbus, we expect to see the Opera
House crowded to its utmost capacity An
exhibition that has created such a tiTore
everywhere it has been will be appreciated
here. t.l' rfs ..l La I... lL1L.l atr.
