affair. Lunch tables bountifully and rich
Iy laden, were set out, to which hundreds

intervals, the Soldiers Home Brass Band,
numbering some twenty members, under
their talented leader, Capt. Lybrand, play
ed delightful medleys and various airs that
showed how well and successfully they
had been practicing the musical art, and
gave rich zest to the social enjoyments
and pleasures OF the evening. AHCwished
Harry great success in his new enterprise.

:
%. s. Fowler, the Phrenologist, having
advertised for free lecture at Naughton
Hall last evening, quite large audience Of
ladies and gentlemen assembled with the
expectation Of hearing discourse upon a
scientific subject and free from the slang OF
the radical partisan. But they were DOOM
ed to disappointment Mr.. Fowler COM
menced his lecture with dilating upon the
principle Of progress as connected with the
chronological organs. In speaking of the
late civil war, he said that thepeople rushed
forward, begging to be taxed, "except those
who had copper in their veins" trr1n %.
At this, theie was some commotion
among the. audience, and several persons
leftthe HALL Mr.. Fowler remarked LET
Copperheads hiss" and several more left
the Hall. After pausing awhile, during
which some youngsters of the radical
stamp, stamped Justify, he. resumed, or at
tempted to resume, the thread OF his dis
course. At this iuncture we lett the ROOM
We understand that after this, persons
continued to leave the Hall, whereupon
Mr.. Fowler said he would give short re-
cess in order that such Copperheads as
chose might leave. Some forty or fifty,
feeling that he had not only insulted them
personally, but the whole audience by such
low and ungentlemanly remarks, left the
Hall. ii He then said that perhaps there
we're some present who did not understand
the scope or purport of his remarks, and to
such he would give an opportunity to de-
part also. A large number left accord
ingly, diminishing his audience to a con-
siderable extent. ..-
Those citizens who desire to be insulted
on account of their political opinions when
invited to attend lecture on a scientific
subject, will do we'll to attend o. S. Fowl
er's lecture on PhrenOlogy tonight. His
lecture last night was unworthy of an in
telligent audience, and the lecturer exhib-
tied his ill-breeding by Insulting great
proportion OF his Audience on account of
their political sentiments, and that, too,
without any cause whatever. Severalper-
sons hissed the utterer of Jo,cler-slang, to
show their disapprobation of thus deceiv-
ing them. They went to hear a lecture on
a scientific subject, and heard a TRADE OF the
lowest political slang. .ei .r.-

Iudge Kennon NOT Hesigned.

Upon inquiry at the Governors office
we learn that Judge VIM. KennOn, Jr, of
st. Clairsville, has not sent his resignation
to that office, nor has any official notice
been received there of such resignation.
But in anticipation of vacancy in the
Judgeship, several applications have been
made for the position. 1t is probable that
the applicants will have to wait for some
time yet, and perhaps refer their claims to
the decision of the people OF the district, as
we hear that Judge Kennon's health is i'm
proving. The report of, his resignation,
which we first saw in the Wheeling Register,
we are pleased to assure our readers, is
without foundation. .--..- - .....-. -. .

The Spread or Ihe Cholera.

Professor Clark, in his lectures in New
York, states that the progress of the ehOl-
era in India was about 2l miles per week,
sometimes less. In Europe it averaged
from eighty 10 one hundred miles per week.
which Is about the rate of the facility of
travel in Europe compared with India. In
crossing the Atlantic it has Travelled at
about the rate Of three TO four hundred
miles week; about the swiftness Of travel
Dy vessel. During the epidemic In Europe
last season It Travelled from Mecca to Alex
andria, AncOna, Marseilles, Southampton,
Paris, etc, more rapidly than during pre-
vious epidemics, the increased facility
keeping pace with the enhanced speed with
which passengers are now conveyed, as

John Robinson's Circus Company, of
Cincinnati, was fired into on Wednesday
evening at Crittenden, KY, 27 miles back OF
Covington, and the manager, James Rob-
inson, killed. The Cincinnati Gazette has
the following report of the affair: -td1
About s O'Clock party of seven men
rode up to the entrance of the canvas, and
after dismounting, demanded admittance.
The doorkeeper refused to allow them the
privilege of passing in, stating that they
must first procure tickets. They refused to
comply with the request. and each pulling
a seven-shooter fired promiscuously into
the interior, through the canvas. 1t Is esti-
mated that forty-nine shots were fired
James Robinson, of this city, the business
manager of the concern, was killed, and
two of the performers, whose names were
unknown to our Informant, were badly
wounded. Some persons in the audience
were also wounded. The murdeFefs, after

singular Case of Self.IncRrcerntiOn. :,
Some time since, Asa Davis and two otffS
ers, from the notorious region east Of this
city, known as "The Flats were arrested
on the charge of stealing ten large hogs
from . drove which had been brought here
fro9/St. Louis, for transportation toNan
Eastern market Thehogs were taken frefp
the pen in which they had been locked, and
after they were gone, the gate or entrance
was found as sDugly locked as before.
7-ona preliminary hearing before Justice
Heyl of this city, Asa Davis was held, up
on his own recognlzance, to answer the
charge of hog-stealing in the Court Of
Common Pleas.
But Asa was sensitive, especially on the
score of an imputation on his character
He did not like TO await the tardy action of
The Court and the slow progress of an ex-
animation of his case by a Grand jury for
the vindication OF, s,good name, A bright
idea occurred or was suggested to him. He
could, under the statutes of Ohio, have an
Examining Court, audlsuch court would
have power, if itshohld come to'the con-
cIusion that he was an ipnocent and injured
man, to discharge him from the arrest al
together. But in order to have such court
look into his case, it was Indispensable
that he should be in prison.
So, like the "immortal J.N-," Of whom
fame speaks trumpet-tongued, Asa con-
cluded to submit to voluntary inearcera-
ton in the county jail for the accomplish
ment of the great end in view. He goes
before the Probate Judge of our county.
and as his own bail, surrenders himself
into the hands of justice. Judge Pugh
permitted him, according to his own wish
and desire, to go to Jail and be imprisoned
like j. N, the philosophic martyr. Being
in prison, he became enabled to make, and
did make an application for an Examining
Court. The application was made to Judge
Pugh, who appointed day for holding the
said court, and seeing what could be made
out of Asa's case.
On the day appointed, Asa appeared In
person with his counsel and Witnesses
But the case was continued until yesterday,
when the decision was made without the
trouble of taking the testimony OF witness
es. Judge Pugh held that Asa's voluntary
surrender and incarceration of himself be-
ing void, he was still at large on his own
recognizance; and, therefore, not being in
prison by any legal authority, but solely
upon his own motion, when he made his
application for an Examining Court, that
such application was unauthorized by the
statute, and the Court had, therefore, no
Jurisdiction in the case, and must dismiss
the application. This was hard judg-
ment for Asa, after all the trouble he had
taken to have his good name vindicated be-
fore legal tribunal in advance of the sit
ting of the next Court of Common Pleas.
