EXCITEMENT IN A CHURCH.
The German Evangelical Church
at Muscatine, Iowa, was the scene
of great excitement last Sunday
night. A few evenings previous
some members of the congrega-
ton had participated in fair and
theatricals, and the pastor felt it
his duty to reprove them there
for. This he did with SO much
severity that a number of those
present made an attempt to eject
him from the pulpit by force, but
were prevented by other members
of the church. The greatest ex-
element prevailed, and for a time
bloodshed seemed inevitable
The next day the pastor received
q written notice warning him to
leave the city in twenty-four hours.
The Mayor of the city, being APP
pealed to by the friends of the
clergyman, has now taken charge
of the affair.

FAYETTEVILLE, TENN;
Thursday Morning, May 80, 1861.
a Novel Method Of Deci-
ding a Lawsuit.

A novel case was tried in one
of our Justices courts, in which a
woman sued a flour dealer to re-
cover $14, the price of q barrel
of -four, which she alleged was
of so poor a quality as to unmer-
charitable. Upon the trial of the
case she swore that the -four was
mouldy, that while it was being
baked the odor arising from it was
insufferable, and that after the
bread was baked and partaken of
by herself, husband and others,
even in small quantities, it made
them all sick. The dealer intro
duced upon the stand a flour in
spector who testified that the -four
was a good article of superior
brand, and he himself testified
that it was the same as he had
been accustomed to sell to his GUS
toners. After hearing the testi-
mony on both sides, the justice,
in order to deal justly with the
aggrieved party, requested the wo-
man to take quantity of the flour
to his residence in order that his
wife might make a trial of its
quality by making it into bread,
and reserved his decision until
sucha trial was made. The flour
was taken to his house, and with
out telling his wife of the circum-
stances of the case, he requested
her to bake two 1oaves of bread
from it and allow him to see them
at noon. Upon his return home,
the bread had just been taken
from the oven, and the odor which
rose from it had filled the whole
house and it was extremely nau-
seous and sickening. This con-
WINGED him that the story Of the
woman, which seemed improbable,
was true. and he rendered judy
ment for the amount claimed in
her favor.-Detr0H Tribune.

have been reported during the past
week. In Berks county, Pa, q
little boy eight years old was
bitten in the face by a mad dog
about two weeks ago, was attacked
with hydophobia a few days after,
and died in great agony. Another
case is that of a young lady at
Vandalla, who has just died a most
horrible death from the effect of

third case is reported at Morris,

FACTS VS. THEORIES.

"Give me "A place to rest my lever or"
says Archimedes, "and | will meys the
world" "Give me pure and, unadslter-
ated drugs" says Medieus, of the olden
times "and will cure disease" e.".,u.
In one sense, both of these learned
pundits were tie veriest charlataas.-
They knew there was no place TO rest
their lever on, either to move the world
or cure disease. Mechanism was in a
backward state, and the medical profes,
sion was but another name for sorcery an
al the adiuncts of magic filters and
charms Of the ,:sevil eye," &c.
But thsse latter days have borne unto
us something more than even superstition
and its crew ever dreamt fin their madest
philosophy. In these days of practical
science, what was theory of yesterday
as faat to-day, and all the old-time notions
becose as bubbles in the sun, and burst
and break with every breath we draw.
Let Archimedes shoulder his lever and
we will find resting for it to move the
world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant
and toll nomore for the drugs he so sorely
needs, for we have them at our hand,
ever ready to serve them at his beck.

We are happy in the thought that many
