age, named Peter, son of Mr.. Patrick Shay,
while putting cloth into cauldron of boil
ing liquid at the Globe Print Works, got in
upon the cloth, as was his custom when the
cauldron was filled above the liquid, to press
it down. But not having in as much cloth
as usual, he sank to his chin in the boiling
LIQUID. He was got out as soon as possible,
and physician called, but the little fellow
was beyond the reach of human aid. Al
most all his skin came off with his clothing.
He seemed to suffer but very little pain,
and was entirely sensible until within an
hour of his death, which occurred in about
three hours

| READING SAENGERFEsT.-Read July
21.-The Saengerfest now in progress in
this city continues to attract many visitors
from all parts of the State. Between four
hundred and five hundred singers arrived
last night, comprising societies from Phila-
delphia, New York, Baltimore, Harrisburg,
and Williamsport. In the evening grand
torchlight procession was formed at the
headquarters at the Fair Grounds, each
society being preceded by transparency
bearing the name of the organization, and
each member carrying Chinese lantern.
Marching to Penn Square, an official re-
ception was extended to the visitors by
Mayor Girard on behalf Of the city autho-
rites by William Rosenthal, Esq, Of the
Banner; Mr.. Won Berks on behalf of the
Reading Maennerchor and by Frederick
Lauer, Esq, on behalf Of the honorary
committee.
The grand concert which took place this
evening, which was participated in by all
the singing associations, was the principal
occasion of interest, and was magnificent
performance. Tomorrow will be occupied
by festival, parade, and picnic at Lauer's
Park, which is expected to attract large
additional attendance Of visitors. The fes-
tiyities will continue until Friday morning.

A message from the President was read,
in which his approval of the tax bill was

and Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
however, Speaker Colfax said, had intelli-

7Colfax) had no other information than that

Standardization and: Sawyer, from
South Carolina, were seated.
Sawyer's seating gave rise to prolonged
discussion. Affdavits Of c. c. Bowen and
Thomas j. Mackey, of South Carolina, were
read, declaring their belief that Sawyer was
ineligible, that he was shareholder in o
blockade-running company, and member
of q military organization in Charleston in
1864. '.''7 -.....'..-. .~',....
Senator Conkling said he was free to say
that he did not believe one word of these
charges against Sawyer.
Robertson, of South Carolina, who had
been seated first in order, that he might
speak and vote in Sawyer's case, said he
had heard none of these charges in the
South Carolina Legislature, and believed
them to be unfounded, and brought up by
disappointed friends of DR.. Mackey.
The question of adjournment was re-
sumed, and the arming of the "loyal"
militia in the southern States was again
brought up. The bill will undoubtedly be-
come law before Congress adjourns.
A concurrent resolution to take recess
from Monday till the third Monday in Sep

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY At ALTooNA-A
YOUNG LADY SHOT BY HER LovER-SUICIDE
OF THE YOUNG MAN.-Thomas Merklein, of
fredericksburg, was employed in the Penn
sylvania Railroad shops at Altoona, where
he labored for considerable time. He
there made the acquaintance of q young
lady named Seibert, to whom he became de-
votedly attached, and finally the two were
betrothed but from some cause Miss S.
recently saw proper to break the engage
ment. Merklein made repeated efforts
since to obtain her consent to union, but
without avail. On Friday evening last he
quit work as usual, but did not return next
morning. During the forenoon Saturday
he visited the residence of the Seibert
family and obtained private interview
with Miss s. He again endeavored to gain
her consent to marry him. She refused, at
the same time stating her cause for SO do
ing; whereupon Merklein drew pistol,
and pointing it to her heart, fired, at the
same time declaring that she should not be-
come the wife of any one. Immediately
after firing he turned the pistol towards his
own head and shot himself, producing in
slant death. Fortunately, Miss Seibert was
not fatally wounded; the bullet entered her
arm near the shoulder. The tragedy pro-
duced great excitement among the people OF
Altoona, where the parties were well known.

TOBACCO PRosPECTs.-The following is
from the report Of the Louisville Board of
Trade for the 18th:
"The crop prospects continue favorable
for small grain, but the gravest apprehen-
sions are beginning to be entertained for
the corn and tobacco crops, owing to the dry
and exceeding warm weather, which has
now prevailed the entire month, with fears
of drought. 1t is now estimated that the
tobacco crop in the State of Missouri will
fall off one-fourth. Instead of 10000 hogs
heads being produced in that State this
year, the impression prevails that it will
not reach $4,000 hogsheads." ....
