KILLED.-On Tuesday last Thomas Tor
ply, who resides near Hyde's Mill, in this
county, came to his death in the following
shocking manner. He was returning from
Arena with load of lumber, and was seat.
ed on keg of nails. 1t is said that con-
trary to his usual habits be had indulged
too freely in potations which exhilirate but
to destroy-in other words he had got
drunk. When near the house of John
Goodlad, not more than two miles from his
home, Mr. Williams came along with an
empty wagon, and seeing Mr.. Torphy's
condition, tried to persuade him to trans
fer the keg of nails to his wagon for safe
carriage, as the roads were very rough, but
failed. Mr.. Williams had only just rassed
when lurch of the wagon caused Mr..
Torphy to fall to the ground, when both
the wheels passed over his body, killing
him instantly. He was poor but indus
trious man, and leaves wife and ten chill
dren, the oldest being girl under thirteen
years old.

FATAL AccrDENT.-We are just in receipt
of the sad news that on Thursday the 9th
of April, blast accidentally went off in a
mine in Central City, Colorado, in which
number of persons from this county were
at work. John H. Webster and Richard
Teinby, of Linden, in this county, were
both badly injured. John H. Webster had
his hand considerably shattered and was
injured in the face, but it was thought he
would speedily recover, and his brother
had written home, saying that he would
be well in few weeks, when he intended
to come home. The very next day they
received the sad intelligence of his death.
He died at half-past eleven on Tuesday
morning the 21st This is sad blow to
his affectionate relatives and numerous
friends. Richard Temby we learn is in a
! fair way to recover.

DEATH FROM OPIUM.-The Mineral Point
Democrat says that DR. Fl. Reichenbach
was found at the point of death in his
room in that city, on Saturday morning
last, from the effects of an overdose of
morphine. Medical aid was Immediately
summoned, but all efforts to save his life
proved unsuccessful, and he died without
speaking word in about two hours after
his condition was discovered.
DR.. R. was highly esteemed as a man
and physician, and during his short resi-
dence among us-less than a year-had
secured many warm personal friends, and
an extensive practice in his profession.
He was widower, aged about 36 years,
and leaves no family. His remains were
taken by his brothers to Monroe for inter
ment on Monday afternoon.

BURGLARY.-Three burglaries were COM
mitted on the night of Monday, the Goth
of April, in the village of Highland, in this
county. The dry good store of Patrick
Smith was entered and SIS in money ta-
ken. The dry good store of Thomas K.
Carey was broken open, and in the morn
ing the lamp was found burning, but the
proprietor having retired in rather an OBJ
livious state, was not able to make out a
list of his losses-they probably were not
very great. The drug store of DIR. j. Da-
vid was also entered and quite number
of articles carried off, such as perfumery,
fancy soaps, brandy and other liquors. No
clue has been found by which the perpe-
traitors Of the robbery can be detected.

no more emphatic than it is. The
closing words of the letter will meet
with hearty response everywhere:
"Peace and universal prosperity, (its

election of GRANT means peace.
"Mr. CoLFAx, in his letter, reviews, in
brief the great cardinal features of the
platform on which the Republican party

exults over the high and advanced posi-
tion which the party occupies on the
question of suffrage, the rights of nat
uralized citizens, and the maintenance
of the national credit. Like Grant, he,
too, only desires the establishment of
national peace and prosperity through
out the borders of the land"

STANTON.

The Democratic papers fairly go in
to exstacies over the retirement of Sec
retary STANTON. Probably no man in
the United States has been SO cordially
hated by them. He has been a rank
ling thorn in their flesh for seven years.
In the exercise of his duties as Secre-
tary of War he found it necessary to
"martyr" a great many of them fol
showing too active sympathy with theil
rebel friends or for opening on our sol
diers fire in the rear. Itisn't in theil
nature to forget this sort of treatment,
and as they have never been i n po'
sition to "retaliate in kind" their vim
dictiveness finds vent in howl Of
delight at his removal.

NOT mANuFACTUREp ITEM.

But an item on manufacturing. The
towns that are increasing in population,
wealth and Importance, are those which
have encouraged and built up manu-
factories. Springfield, O., is notable
instance of this. Two reaper and
mower factories have been built there,
and it is reported, we believe truthfully,
that this alone has increased the value
of real estate there thirty-three per
cent. The establishment in Fremont
of single large factory for the manu-
facture of all kinds of agricultural i'm
plements of which wood is the princi-
pal material, would materially enhance
the value of real estate.

DEATH OF JAMES BUCHANAN.

James Buchanan, fifteenth President
ofthe United States, died at Wheatland,
near Lancaster, Pa, on Monday, June
/, in his seventy seventh year. He was
born in Franklin County, Pennsylvania,
! April %, 1871. His father came to
the United States from Donegal, Ireland,
in 1883, and married the daughter of
an American farmer. The son was sent
to Dickinson College, at which he grad
uated in 1909, and in November, 1912,
was admitted to bar. He at once enter
ed upon an extensive and lucrative prac-
tice, which continued until 1880, when
he abandoned it for politics. He served
in the Legislature Of Pennsylvania, from
1914 to 1920, when he was elected to
Congress, and continued a member of
the H. of Representatives until 1880. In
1928, he supported General Jackson.
In 1881, he obtained from the latter the
appointment of Minister to Russia, where
he negotiated our first treaty with that
power. In 1928 lie returned and was
elected to the United States Senate. On
the election of Mr.. Polk in 1s45, Mr..
Buchanan was made Secretary of State.
When Pierce was elected in 1882, he
appointed Mr.. Buchanan Minister to
England. In April 1866, he returned
to the United States, and in June fol-
lowing he was nominated by the Dem
ocratie party at Cincinnati for the Pres
idency. In November following he was
elected. His administration began with
the attempt to force the admission of
Kansas into the Union under a consti-
tuition establishing slavery, which had
never been submitted to the people, and
ended with the opening attempt of the
South to dissolve the Union. He never
had guiding principle. During the
sixty years that he was in public life,
there was no policy that he did not both
oppose and support He was welded
to politics. He had no other wife. More
than half the years of his public life
were devoted to intrigues for his ele-
vation to the Presidency. He had
pledged himself, that if slavery would
make him President, he would do its
bidding. The time came for the re-
demption of the pledge, and the old
man found consolation for his treachery
in the boast that he would be the last
President of an unbroken Union? But
a just Providence held him up long
enough to see the Union triumph over
the rebellion that grew under his hand.
He lived long enough to zee the flag
that he had betrayed floating once more
over every inch of America soil, and
his own name mentioned only to be
despised.

VISIBLE Apm1xruRE LAW VOID.

The Supreme Court of Ohio has pro-
nouneed the Visible Admixture Law
unconstitutional. 1t came before the
Court on Friday last in the case of a
colored student in Greene county, and
singularly enough involves nearly if
not all the points involved in the Visi-
bic Admixture and Students Voting
Laws. The Court decided that they
were unconstitutional and Void. So
fails the cowardly attempt of the Dem
ocratic legislature to deprive four or
five thousand citizens of Ohio of the
right to vote. Hereafter, as hereto
fore, persons of African descent having
a preponderance of white blood, will
vote. The law disfranchising Soldiers
at the Home will share the same fate.
