WE learn that on Thursday morn
ing last, Mrs. Andrew Bunting, of
Wellsville, Ohio, repeated request
that her husband would buy addih-
tional carpets for their house.
Mr. Bnnting refused to accede to her
request, whereupon the wife sprang
to the sideboard, seized glass OF
prepared arsenic, and threatened to
drink it unless he would do as she
desired. The children screamed and
Mr.. Bunting quietly endeavored to
prevent the rash act, but he was too
late she swallowed the contents OF
the glass. Doctor Hammond, the
family physician, and DR.. McKen
zie were speedily summoned. They
prepared an Sntidote for the poison,
but the wife refused to take it until
it was too late to save her life; she
then regretted her wickedness. Mr.,
Bunting, who is also proprietor of a
boat that plies on the Ohio river
Steubencille Gazette.

An Armed Force for the Preservation Of
the Peace.

A Joint resolution has passed the pres
ent Legislature, to third reading, by O
vote of 73 ayes to nays, authorizing the
Governor to employ an armed force for
the preservation of the peace.
This we regard as an unjust reflection
both upon the present administration
and upon the people of the State.
The Republican party are now in con-
troll. They are in power and in effect
have the control of nearly all the civil
Offices Of the State. To say, therefore,
that they cannot preserve the peace, is
to assert either their Indifference or inca.
pacity for the discharge of official duty.
The few cases OF disorder which occur
in South Carolina are such az are incl
dest to every community and State. We
may challenge investigation in this re-
spect with the records Of any other CON-
monwealth in the Union. Nowhere is
there q greater regard for human rights
or q more profound obedience to law,
The tragedies in the more northern COM
monwealths, of which their papers give
daily account, rarely, II ever, take place
upon our soil.
The whole resolution looks more like a
disposition for political sensation and
capital than for any existing necessity,
or any desire for the general welfare.
; What we want is peace, and peace is
already here, if the civil laws are only
allowed free course. Occasional breaches
of the law are incident to every commu-
nifty. As long as human nature exists
these will be inevitable. Bot to hold a
whole people responsible for these is as
absurd as it is upjust-Charieston CoM-
rier.
