DOMESTIC TROUBLES.

I
UhrIchsvfIIe has a Sensation
An UnfaithfuI Wife, A Fight
The Injured Husband. Comes
OFF VietOrOus. 5-ag-
For some time past one of our prom
inent business men has had suspicious
that all waEnot right in his family re-
lations, believing from what he had seen
and heard that his wife was in criminal
intimacy with 3 young man employep
in the machine shops at Dennison-
cousin OF her's-Rnd who had for soma
time been boarding IN the family. He
had often laid his plans to satisfy him
self of tho truth or error ofhis suspicious,
but had each time failed to succeed.
Accordingly, at an early hour on Sum
day NOR ming last he informed his wife
that he was going out in the country to
gather blsckberries, and would be absent
rhe greater part of the day. Instead of
going, however, as the wife suppos ed
he LEFT the house at one door, entered
another, and secreted himsslfin a cup
board 70 await developments He was
compelled to remain q uiet iD his hiding
place for several hours, but after while
the young man in question put ia an
appearance. The husband, alth Ough
safely secreted from the view of the
guilty wife and her parRmOur, had eV-
cry opportunity to see and hear all that
Was transpiring, and soon had sufficient
reason TO convince him that all his sus-
piciOns OF his wifs's unfaithfulness were
well founded. Aggravated at her con-
duct and enrGged at the man who had
so boldly intruded upon his peace and
happiness, h0 emerged at the proper
time from his seclusion to behold the
pair engaged in that awful crime, for
bidden BY God and man-ADULTERY.
He did not, however, do as most men
under the circumstances would have
done. and as perhaps he would have been
justified by law in doing, shoot the viI~
lisn on the spot but he "feIl to- and
gave him a complete drubbing. kicking,
bruising and cutting his face in q fright
full man. Other parties the interferred,
preventing the further punishment of
the young adYenturer, who effected his
escape at the back door and made tracks
for dear life down the alley, passing the
n. E. Church during sabbath school,
creating a CONSERVATION by his sorry
appearance that led ali to inquire what
had happened. In the meantime, the
husband had ordered and compelled the
guilty woman to leaAe his house and
presence. fOrbiddIng her ever to return.
Such is the recital OF an affair which has
created a sensation in the community,
furnished another proofof the evils OF
untaithfulness to marriage vows, and
illustrating the truth that such deeds,
however coy the perpetrators may be,
like murder and every other crime, arOz
apl to come to light at last.

On Thursday evening of last week
young couple took quarters at the
st Cloud hotel in our city, entering
their names as J.. A. Taylor and
wife, The man was little fellow OF
"A or 20 years of age and of ordinary
appearance, and the lady, about the
same age, was quite WOmaniy and
Passably good looking.
On Friday afternoon Express agent
George Smith, was telegraphed from
LadOga, Indiana, to arrest a certain
man who should call for a trunk
going forward by express. Our
friend George, being a cautious Stark
County boy, inquired the reason
what the charge &c. The answer
was adultery. E-tl@- .. .t
George then handed the matter
over to Marshal Oldfeld who prompt.
ly waited upon the happy pair and
intOlmed the little gentleman he had
special quarters for him at an other
hotel, built mostly of stone, on
poplar street, commanded by Sheriff
Dunbar and deputy Baxter. The
lady remained in their room at the
st Cloud, the Marshal locking the
door and p0cketing the key. -
On Saturday evening, special de-
tective r. ID. Youel of LadOga, ar
rived on the scene. Mr.. Y. retained
Attorney Lynch and on Monday the
defendant Taylor had q hearing be-
fore Esquire Sayler on a charge of
adultery, Attorney Baldwin defend.
ing him.
1t appeared from the testimony of
Mr.. Youel that j. A. Taylor and
Mrs. Mary Gillian, took the cars at
Ladnga last Wednesday, that Mrs.
Gallan, is the. wife. of Mr.. Tlman
Gillian, respected farmer of Putnam
Co unity, IG1., that the relative of
Mrs. Gillian are highly respectable,
tn at heretofore she has borne a good
character and IS the mother of two
little children aged 4 and 2 years,
respectively, her maiden name was
Harden. 2
pa It seems that Taylor had been in.
weeks, digging a we'll &c, Mr.. G..
Taylor procured q horse and buggy
and met her near her home by APP
pOintment, where, in the woods she
changed her every day clothing
leaving them there. Mr., Gillian did
not know the truth till the day after,
when he learned the pair had taken
the train east.
Justice Sayler found the defendant
guilty and removed him to Jail for
trial at the next term of the Probate
Court. Should a requisitiOn arrive
from the Gov, Taylor will be taken
to Indiana for tIial under the laws
of that State.
/ Mr., Youel. returns his thanks to
Express agent Smith, Marshall Old
field, and Attorney Lynch, for their
proUptitude and assistance in the
case.
This affair is unexpIainable on any
ordinary principles ofhuman feeling.
How a woman could thus leave her
happy home and little ones, we con-
fess. is past common understanding,
Mrs. Gillian is still 3 guest at the st.
Cloud, under no legal restraint. She
puts on quite afboId face, we learn.

VERY KIND IN SAM.-Sam. Slusser we
mean. Sam, for the most part of his life
so far, has been engaged in the tanning
b n e st nning OK hides,
bull hides, calf hides, &c, Just like Grant,
an honorable business in which Sam serv-
ed his country. Pity Sam has quit it and
hired himself to do the small, dirty work
of the radical, mongrel, free love, Office
seekers of Canton and Alliance. He now
wants TO prevent the Democracy from
tanning their radical hides for the benefit
of a suffering country-but Sam cannot
prevent that. He was detea.ed for Street
Commissioner himself last Spring, but is
nevertheless doing the town, street by
street, in this way. $50
At one house last week, Sam inquired
of the lady, who livedthere 2 and being told,
asked whether he was q Republican or q
Democrat. A Democrat, sir, was the Ie-
ply. Is that all you want TO know, sir
Oh yaas, guess so, and the lady closed
the door on Sam
Sam entered little saloon in the I'd
ward, and felt much at home, if it was
kept by a naturalized ETcnchman. The
proprietor soon gave Sam to understand
that he was Democrat, when Sam passed
himself ditto, and said he was taking the
carriages on election day for the old and
lame and sick. Sam was as nice as a fresh
oyster, and our French friend set out the
bottle very kindly, which caused Sam to
''Snl6te"-not the first "SnliLe' of the
kind for Sam, either.
We need not say our French Democrat
now understands Sam and his mission, but
thinks, for a travelling representative of
the temperance, mongrel party, Sam
''SDaites" easy.
In another dwelling, where the lady had
read the DEMoCRAT and understood Sans
business, he inquired how her ''man"
would vote. She sung out, up stairs Hell
10 Jim, wen2 LET'S see, you and dad
vote republican this fall, don't you Oh
yes, 1 guess so. When Sam had gone
there was q good laugh all round. (
Now, it does seem to US that this sort of
pimp business is not of the NEST elevating
chsracter-especially for a man claiming
to belong 70 the ''decency party It
must take good deal of that quality
known as impertinent impHdence to enable
a man (not 3 gentleman) to march around,
from house to house, and make these in
quiries from the women and children
This looks as il the intention was to FORCE
LABoRING MEN in Canton to vote the Negro
Suffrage ticket-else why so necessary to
know each mans personality and statu quo
at home9
Sam ought to be paid well for this sneak
ing business.
