A TERRIFIC TuMBLE-A CHILD FALLS FROM A
FOURTH sTORY WINDOW

LuIie Poland, child about nine years
of age. daughter of Mr.. G. A Poland,
residence 1856 South High Street, fell
from the &aurth story window of what is
known as the Constants Block, about II
o'clock on Saturday night, to the pave
ment below, sustaining very serious IN
juries. The child arose from its bed in a
somnambulic state, passed to the center
window and it Is supposed climbed out.
Mr.. Gates of the Arsenal and Policeman
Mcclure were passing at the time and
heard the child fall Mr.. Gates ran to
the spot and called loudly to those in
side asking whose child had fallen from a
window. A lady in one of the lower
rooms replied that it did not belong
there. He replied that it did because he
saw it fall. Mr. Poland aroused at the
call by this time, discovered the absence
of his little daughter, and ran down
stairs expecting to carry up the lifeless
body of his child. She revived, however
while being carried up and called to her
father and in a few minutes spoke quietly
and nationally. Her hands were much
bruised and apparently blistered inside,
one leg was severely injured at the knee,
one foot was bruised somewhat, and the
face badly bruised about the mouth, one
or two teeth being knocked out She
fell from the window, touching the wall
perhaps at one or two projections, strik-
ing first on the iron cross bar of the avn
ing frame of Lane's liquor store, this act
ing as a spring to break the fall, and in
its rebound throwing her forward on to
the pavement. The rod or bar upon
which she struck, an inch in diameter,
was bent down several inches. The dis
tanoe from the window to the pavement
is nearly forty feet, and it seems almost
miracle that she escaped with life. She
remained yesterday In a much more ia
vorable condition than even the physi
clan anticipated DR.. Hamilton made a
thorough examination and reported no
more serious injuries than those we have
spoken of. Little Lulie talked yesterday
much with visitors about her rough weak
ening up, and last night rested well. She
has Out-handled the Hanlons il lofty
tumbling, and was regarded yesterday by
the many kindhearted visitors as quite as
much Columbus Journal.

There was political meeting at Eliza
bethtoWn, KY, which was addressed by
Hon J ohm NJ Harlan aud Hon Hamil-
ton Pope. At this meeting the Louis
vile Journal informs US, an eXtroardiu-
ary scene was presented, which is thus
described by that paper
: Mr. Harlan followed in
speech of two hours and half, speaking
as very few men are able to speak In
the midst Of his strongest and most elo-
quent utterances, loud cries were raised
of Hurrah for Duvall p' Mr. Harlan
paused and asked mildly but impressively
why they were in favor Of Duvall.-
Tell me, said he, IF IT. Is not because
he was for the rebellion ?'' YES, yes.
yes ! u 8 Are you for the rebellion now?''
I'VE would be undoubtedly five thought
we. could succeed" Mr. Harlan thanked
and complimented them for their candor.
aad then added Suppose Jefferson
Davis and Andrew johnson shall be the
opposing candidates for the Presidency
In lS68-Whinh- Of the two will you sup
port 2" They hesitated to respond. Mr.
81. said, You have been very candid and
/ venture to hope you will still be so.
Speak out Which will you 90 for
johnson or Davis !" Then the loud an
swer came. Davis Davis Davis l''-
Old men, the most substantial citizens of
ElizabethtowR and Hardin, joined in the
shout. Again, Mr.. Harlan thanked them
for their candor, telling them that they
we're the most candid men of their party
that he had talked to in all his canvass.
Very shortly afterward, Mr. Harlin, not
having concluded his remarks, the pro
rebel portion of the audience made rush
toward the stand, ard shouted, Wilson I
Wilson Wilson !" this Wilson being
pro-rebel lawyer of Elizabethtowa. A
Union officer or soldier present exelaim-
ed, Il have heard that same kind of shout
before [ heard it raised more than once
in the rebel army. 1t is exactly the kind
of shout with which the rebel troops al
ways went into battle" Mr. Wilson as
cended the stand Mr.. Sam. Thomas rose
and objected to his making a speech
"This," he said calmly and resolutely,
"is our meeting. We would willingly
have divided time with you if you had
asked us to do so but you did not, and
we have made our arrangements, which
must not be broken up or disturbed"
The pro-rebels then proposed that all
who wished to hear Mr. Wilson should
go to the Court House About one third

HARD T0 REALIZE.

At 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon a dis
patch was read on Change, giving the quo
tations mades for 5-20s on the London
Stock Exchange the same day. The
message was received in New Yor K at
1: 10 p NJ. The dispatch must have been
conveyed from Hearts Content to Aspy
Bay by steam, as we have no adviees of
the channel cable having b zen laid. Other
wise we might have had the information
early in the forenoon, the difference be-
tween London time and Cincinnati being
about four hours. As it was, merchants
found it difficult to realize that they we're
listening to London news Of the same
day. It is not too much to say that this
achievement is the greatest scientific
event of the nineteenth century. But it
will only be the marvel of the day. Peo-
pie will hereafter look for direct dis
patches from London as a matter of
course Cincinnati Gazette. a..

Blind Tom, the negro pianist, was to be
