were but two towns represented, and
those only partly. In the First and Sec

representing that party at Appleton were
the defaa,ed candidate for Village Pres.

Tribune. There was a time wher the
Republicans of this County were repre-.
sented by able and influential men of

controlled and governed by men who

SUccEssFuL-T The laying Of the sec
ond Atlantic cable has proved success,
and Europe and America are now united
by two iron Inks, which, as it were,
speak instantaneouslv to The Inhabitants
of all countries. The Great Eastern
grappled up the old cable one hundred
miles east by north of where she los, it in
the summer OF 1865. The finding oi
this wire on the bottom ct the ocean, in
water over seven thousand feet 10 depth
is said to be one OF the most marvellous
proofs Of human .kill, when aided by
sciencs, recorded ir the history of the
world.

MURDER IN KossUTH.-A man by the
name Of FREDERICK BoEN1G, living iu the
town OF kossutf,, was murdered in bis
own house on Thursday evening last, by
his wife, CAROLINE BcESIG. AS We learn
tie particulars, they are as follows -
i'oEN1a, who was subject to dissipation
had been absent from home that day, and
returned in the evening, when an alterca.
ton occurred between himself and wife.
Ills wife and three children then left the
house, and by the testimony he retired to
bed. Shortly after, the wife returned to
the house, and must have committed the
horrid deed with An axe while he was in
slumber. His head was horribly mar.
gled-the bed, side of he house, and floor
being covered with bis brains and blood.
Constable BLAKE arrested her, and an ex
animation was held before Justice SIBREE
last Wednesday who committed her for
ula', allef nearing the testimony OF few
witnesses. The accused pleads self,de.
'ence, but SO far there is nothing to show
but that it was a wicked, brutal, and
coId>blooded murder. The murdered
man had been soldier, was about 40
years Of age, and with the exception OF
his occasional sprees, was considered a
good man. Mr.. WooDIs prosecuted in
behalf of the State, and the prisoner was
ably defended by B Il. ASDERsoS, Esq.
who will use all his good legal ability TO
clear his client from the highest crime
known to our laws. The prisoner has
three children living, and is now in an
advanced state of pregnancy. She will
be confined IN Jail until the December
term Of the Circuit Court.

unprovoked assaults by burglars, robbers or murd-
erers, the action of lightning or sun stroke, the
effects of explosions, chemicals, foods md earth
quakes, suffocation by drowning or choking.
This company has been in successful operation
since April LIST, 1864, and up to April |, 1856 had
issued over forty.tice thousand policies, and paid
over fourteen hundred losses-in addition to the
large sum of S92, 500 realized to twenty mine
| policy holders, for S542 received in premiums
GENERAL ACCIDENT POLICIES.
| The best policy Tor every man, whether he trav-
els much oe little, is General Accident policy,
