A Clerical Beast.

The Rochester Union Of the 21st
inst. has the following painful narra-
tive: ++
eve learn from railroad men, who
came from Medina this morning, that
there was great excitement in that vii
lage, arising from report that Pres
byterian clergyman, named Lindsey,
residing mile south Of the village,
whipped his son, three years old, so Sc
verely that he died two hours subse-
quently, because he would not say his
prayers. Report adds that the child's
fingers were broken by the blows ad-
ministered. The report seemed so
monstrous and unnatural that we tele-
graphed to Medina to learn if it was
true, and received an answer that it was.
The telegraph states that the minister
was two hours whipping the child with
a heavy rod, and it died from it's inju-
ries within the time stated above
Lindsey had not been arrested at the
time the dispatch was sent, but we learn
that an officer from Albion had gone
to Medina to take him to custody
For the sake OF common humanity, we
hope the story is exaggerated, and it
may be possible that it is.
''Since writing the above, we have re-
ceived by special telegraph, the state
ment of Mr.. Lindsley, the father of the
child, made to ajury summoned by Cor
oner Chamberlain sOn the 18th of
June, the child disobeyed his step-moth-
er, and commenced correcting him,
using shingle for the purpose, land con-
tinued to chastise him for more than
two hours, when the child beganto show
signs of debility, and l ceased to pun
ish him and laid him on a couch, and
called my wife. When she saw the
child she said he was dying, and before
II o'clock he was dead
''The coroner's jury returned YER
dict yesterday that death resulted from
chastisement by the father.''

Remarkable Robbery.


Nelson Bristol, a wealthy farmer Of
Florence, Huron county, O., was rob
bed Of over $14,O0O on Tuesday, the
26th of June,in in very singular manner.
We condense the following particulars
from the Cleveland Herald:
In Mr.. BristoIs safe were $4,000 in
United States bonds, belonging to him
self; $4,000 intrusted to his safe keep
ing by neighbor, Mr.. Pearce, and
3,O27 in gold, the property of Mr.
Bristol. About dark five men arrived
at the house, claiming to be Govern
ment detectives, who were on the track
of some Government bonds which had
been stolen. Hearing that Bristol had a
large amount of securities, they demand
ed to see them He reluctantly opened
his safe, when his visitors declared that
the numbers of his bonds compared ex-
actly with those of the missing ones, ,and
in spite ofhis protestations, kept posses
sion of them. They then arrested him
and his wife and three hired men, for
their alleged suspicious conduct, hand
cuffed them, and "confscated'' the gold
as the proceeds of missing bonds,
which had been sold. They then with
drew, otensibly for consultation, but it
is hardly necessary to say, did not re-
turn. The handcuffed victims waited
several hours, and finally arrived at the
conclusion that they had been fright
fully taken in At last accounts the
robbers had not been captured.

bleorm OF casualty, including the risk in travel
ing also all forms of dlslocations broken bones,
ruPtured tendoDs, sprans, conclusions, crushinrs,
bruises cuts, gtabs, gunshot wounds, poisoned

unproVo&ed assaults by burglars, robbers o. murd-
erers, the action OF lightning stroke, the
effects OF EXPLOSIONS, chemicals, foods nd EARTH
quakes, suffocatIon by drowning or choking
This company has been in successful operation
since April lat, 1864, and up to April T. 1866 had
ISSUED over forty fire thousand policies and paid
over fourteen hundred losses-in addition tn the
large sum of S92 500 realized to twenty nine

els much or little, is General Accident policy.
which insures against every possible form of casu-
atty, at all times and places.
An annual premium of $40 or $l2 (accordiuq tn
occupation), will secure a General Accide nt poli-
cy for 81 000 in of fatal accident, $40 per
week during disability caused by accident mot
exceeding twenty-six weeks for any one accident
An annual premium of $25 or $50 will. IN like

This company issues a very convenient form OF
One Month General Accident policies at the rat
of ST. per thousand-with S. per week compepsa-
ton for each thousand insured These are mich
better than insurance tickets FOR travellers and
others desiring short risks, as they can be taken

all accidents, and each policy is registered, SO
that the insurance is good In case the policy is
lost destroyed.
For mechanics and others who cannot easily
spare the amount of annual premium, but
would like to insure by the month, these short

theirs in slavery, and into that barbarian from
which slavery rescued them, and which has a.
