ANOTHER MURDER.

A Man Shot and Thrown into the
CanaI-His Body FOund-NO Clue to
the murderers.
Yesterday morning between five and six
o'clock, as boat was passing through the
upper lock, in the canal, at the foot of
Vineyard street, dead body was discov-
cred floating in the water. 1t was taken
out and laid upon the dock, and the Coro-
ner was Immediately notified. Upon his
arrival the remains were conveyed to How
lands undertaking rooms, where an inquest
was held. An examination OF the body
developed the fact that he had been shot,
there being a small bullet hole, evidently
made by a revolver shot, in the right side,
near the hip bone. The bullet was found
in the body.
The Captain of canal boat which was
lying near the spot where the body was
found, testified that about midnight on
Saturday night he heard two pistol shots,
and few minutes after heavy splashing
of the water. A similar statement was
made by little girl living near by. Two men
were also seen to run from the spot shortly
after the shots were heard. A verdict W as
rendered of, death from pistol shot, the
weapon being in the hand of some per-
son or persons unknown to the jury"
The man was identified as Samuel Max
well, notorious blackleg. who among his
"pals" went by the sobriquet of "Club-foot-
ed Sam.H Eleven or Twelve years ago ne
was arrested, with one James Hawkins. for
a highway robbery committed in this city.
Both were convicted and sent to the peni-
tentary for ten years. After serving out
his time, Maxwell was set at liberty and
returned to this city. The police made it
too warm Ior him, however, and he went to
Buffalo. He had not been there long till
he was sent to the worktouse, where he
served term of six months. He then came
AGAIN TO Cleveland to try his fortunes, and
has been here for the past few weeks. He
was last seen on Saturday evening, and
was heard to declare his intention to rob
somebody that night. 1t is possible that
he may have attempted a robbery, been
shot, and his body thrown into the canal.

The Ohio Farmer, in publishing the call
for a Wool Growers Convention at Cleve-
land, thus calls attention to it, and gives the
reasons for the action about to be taken.

MEETING OF THE PRoTEcTIoNIsTs. = In

meeting of the friends OF Protection to
American Labor, to be held in Cleveland
on the 4th day of July. We do not purpose
to forestall the action of that meeting by
any present expression Of opinion as what
course they ought to pursue. In all our
experience as editor of agricultural papers
we have never yet written for them a po-
litical article, nor do we now propose to in
augurate writing of that sort. We are
pledged to maintain the interests of the
laboring classes which have elected us as
their spokesman, aud if in the discharge of
this duty we are obliged to discuss meas
ures or men which we hold to be arrayed
against the industrial interests of the coun-
try, it will be not as a politician but as an
advocate of the rights of labor, and an OPP

these rights, and any man or set of men
who seek to fasten such policy upon the
country AZ
To be explicit: One of the two leading
political parties of our State, has selected
as candidate for Governor, gentleman
who, as member of the last Congress, was
in active opposition to the passage of the
tariff bill, which was defeated in the Lower
House by the help of his vote, near the
close of the session; and as the Ohio Wool
Growers Association at its last annual
meeting (as well as many other like Asso-
Citations, State and local) resolved to sup
port no man for Office who thus opposed
what they conceive to be their interest and
their right, therefore the friends of pro-
tective policy are requested to meet and
deliberate whether they are to abide by
their former declaration, in the pending
canvass for State officers.
And not only to ourselves do we owe this
as bounden duty, but to the friends of
protection in other States, with whom we
stand mutually pledged TO carry our case,
If need be, to the ballot-box, as a court OF
last resort.

THE SUPPOSED PARRlCIDE.

MYSTERIOUS Affair-A PrOminen Ply
siciau Assaulted and stabbed I'm HIS
own House-The Matter sub Rosa
for several Days-His Son Arrested
on Suspicion.
On Tuesday morning, June 25, about
two o'clock, two physicians-Drs. Weber
and Cushing-on Euclid Avenue, were
startled by the excited manner with which
their door bells were being rung, and upon
fastening to ascertain the cause, found
Horace Strickland, the only son of Doctor
Strickland, a near neighb r, who stated
that his fathers house had been entered
by burglars, and that his father was then
living on the floor in senseless condition,
having been stricken down by an axe in
the hands of the burglars. Singular
as it may appear, the affair was wrap
ped in almost polar silence, pal ticularly
SO far as the police authorities were con-
cerned, as three or four days elapsed before
any portion of the circumstances got in
general circulation. Then, only scraps of
Information could be gathered here and
there, from very unreliable sources. caus-
ing the excitement that would naturally
grow out of such proceeding to become
very great. All sorts of ramors were set
afloat about unpleasant domestic relations
existing between the Doctor and his son,
eliminating in broad side whisper that
the son was possibly the perpetrator of the
outrage. AS the police authorities did not
feel like allowing the matter to go without
an investigation, leaving the public to sup
pose they were unmindful of the general
tranquility of the city, Detective Schmitt,
having made some investigation as to the
habits, employment, and general reputa-
tion of the son, arrested the young man.
He is about twenty-five years of age, and
when arrested was working in Sweeney's
photograph gallery, business in which
he has been engaged for come time. A
strong point, tending to cast suspicion up
on the son, was based upon information
received relative to threats made by him
against his father, because, according to
his own allegation, the father would not
give him money. but expected him to as
sociate with families of the same financial
standing in society, upon the salary OBJ
tanned in the photograph gallery. For the
information of those who are net acquainL-
ed with DR.. s., it may be proper to state he
is man of considerable wealth, with an
extensive and paying practice, and his So
cial position is on an equal footing with
that of any man in the city. The arrest OF
the son has cast gloom of sorrow over the
family and their friends.

For Lieut.. Governor "J. NJ.

Mr.. GALLOWAY has declined the nomina-
tion for Lieut. Governor, because he could
not stand the ''pressure." J.. is the only
man that can stand the "pressure" without
f1inching.
Mr.. GALLOWAY is unwilling to be made a
''martyr." Nothing delights the immortal
81. N" more than martyrdom. He seeks it
where the ''pressure" is greatest, as natur-
ally as duck takes to water, or a negro
suftrageite takes to the darkey.
Mr.. GALLOWAY was nominated because
he is the best orator of his party, as viewed
from the Negro Suffrage standpoint. j.
N, from his ''stand-poiut," can beat him
any day GALLOWAY ever saw.
Mr.. GALLOWAY don't like to- be beaten,
for he knows by experience that it does a
man no good to run and be defeated. 81.
N" can stand any beating that can be
given him. He rather likes tit is good
for his wholesome. To be martyr he
knows that good beating is serviceable,
for "wine issues from the trodden grape"
and iron, all the world knows, has to be
blistered into steel. With ~. N" beating,
as old STAPELToN used to say, is ''human
natur'," but when GALLOWAY is licked it is
always bad financial investment for him.
self and friends.
We propose that 81. N" take the place
of GALLOWAY on the Republican Ticket.
He will make better ornamental figure
head than GALLOWAY, and besides will be
willing martyr and add dignity to the
concern.

hold.
From the Cincinnati Commercial


The Register in Bankruptcy, appointed
in Nashville, Alexander S. Bradley, Esq,
is announced as "a nephew of Senator
Fessenden, of Maine" We suppose his re-
lationship with the distinguished Senator
is a high recommendation. There is so
much talent in the Fessenden family that it
has been monopolized in the public service.
Mr.. Bradley is the twentieth of the Sem
ator's relatives taken from private business
and appropriated. AS Government offices
seldom pay as well as private business that
is conducted with intelligence and industry,
we are persuaded the Fessendens are sub
jected to a system of extortion extremely
unjust. 1t may be that the life of the ma
tion depends upon employing all the male
relations of the Hon. VIM. Pitt Fessenden,
and if so, we presume they will have SUI
ticient patriotism to obey the call of their
country, and discharge their duty to man
kind.
Except the SHERMAN family, there are
none in the country so well taken care o
as the FEssENDENs. They are bound to
feed at the public crib, and their Senator
seems determined that they shall fulfill their
destiny.
