ANCIENT lllsroRy.-The Gordiun
Knot SO often spoken of by writers,
proverhiallv, is thus explained in hi~to-
ry. Gordius was peasant Of ancient
Ihrygia. While piowing an eagle
perched upon his OK yoke. and remained
there all day. He went to Tclmc~sls
city Of Lydia, to consult the sooth-
sayers concerning the omen. On his
way he met beautiful young woman,
who told him he was about to be eleva-
ted to throne, aud offered to marry
him, an offer which he readily accepted.
Soon after, n sedition broke out among
the Phrygians, and the oracles or sooth-
sayers advised them to choose for n king
the first man who should pass the tenn.
pie OF Jupiter with al OK cart. The peo-
pie therefore ran pell- nell To the temple,
where Gordins soon after made his ap-
pearance, driving his oxen and cart,
and was crowned king OF Phrygia. III
.'omcInOratioU OF this event, lie desiicat-
- hte ox-CArt In the temple OF Jupiter
To rSgAi majesty. He fasteneT very
intricate knot 10 the beam OF his cart,
and the oracles promised that the man
who should unite 1t should have domin-
ion over the world Great numbers at
tempted to unite II, but in vain. At
length came Alexander the Great, who,
1nding it impossible to unite 1t, drew
his sword and cut 1t in two.

New Version of an Old Story.

Lord Lowell he stood by the garden gate,
With his shining velocipede,
And whispered farewell to his Lady Bell,
Who wished his Lordship good
"When will you be back, Lord Lowell ? she
said,
But he gave her question no heed
Placed his feet i'll his stirrupS and galloped
away
On his famous velocipede.
Then Lady Bell cried, in frantic alarm,
''What monster my Lord Is indeed,
To ride thus away from his loving young
wife,
On that horrid velocipede!'
Lord Lowell returned, broken-heartcd and
sore,
Broken-ar and, alas! broken-knccd;
For he struck on post nearly gave up the
ghost,
And smashed his velocipcde!
MORAL.
4 Remembcr the fate Lord Lovcl has met,
Let this be your warning and creed
Stay at home with your wife for the rest OF
your life,
And beware ofthe velocipede.

SERVED HIM RIGHT.-A man in the
north part of this county, whose name
we withhold, got himself in y bad scrape
about week ago. In drunken fit he
attempted to get into a house where two
young girls were staying alone. He
broke in the first door, and then an
inner door, and the girls fled to the
kitchen, where they got hold of an axe
and prepared to defend themselves to
the last extremity. The wretch kicked
in the panels of the door but his foot
became eutangled so he could not with
draw it and the girls deliberately chop
ped of his leg piecemeaI below the
knee. He has since had his leg ampu-
tatcd above the knee, and is recovering,
but We presume he won't try it again

MURDER IN BEAVER TowNsHIP.-On
Thursday last, Clarence j. Curtis, aged ~
years adopted son of George Curtis, was
struck by club in the hands OF George
Varues, aged Is years, son Of Isaac Varnes,
in Beaver township, six miles west OF Con
neautville, from the effects OF which he dled
on Saturday afternoon. The two families
are nighbors and it appears have been on
bad terms FOR years. On Thursday alter
ternoon, says the Conneau;ville Reord. Cur
is geese got into Varnes' lot, when George
Varnes and o younger brother went to drive
them out, intending to kill them il possible
For this purpose tho former procured at the
wood pile aeavy maple club about Two
feet long and two inches in diameter, and
took it with him. While engaged in chac-
ing the geese, Curtis ca me into the field,
when an alteration took place between the
parties, in which it is stated, Curtis, who
was much the largest of the three, dared
both the Varnes' to fgnt him, expressing
opinion that be could whip them both to-
gether. The Challenge was not excepted,
when Curtis caught one OF the geese and
| in running after another he stumbled and
fell forward upon his face. Before he had
time to rise, George Vanes rushed upon,
and struck him heavy blow with the club,
the blow taking effect little over and back
OF the left ear, fracturing the base of the
skull. The fracture was about two inches
long and half inch wide, and strange rs il
may seem, the skin was not even broken.
Curtis was at once removed to the home ol
his parents and DR.. Greene, Of Conneaut-
vile, summoned, who upon examination
found the wound fatal. After lingering il
an insensible cond ,tion from the time lie wa.
struck until Saturday afternoon, death en-
sued.
Narnes was arrested on Thusday evenn,
and ramained in custoday until Curtis dice
when be was brought to this city and COM
mitted to Jail. Curtis was buried on Mon
day.-NeGdrule Republican.

Dispatch Of yesterday we learn that "a young
man named George Shannon formerly Of
Pithole, was arrested in Erie on Wednes-
day by the police OF that city on telegram
from Frank Austin, a Pithole officer. The
charge against Shannon is forgery. Some
time since, Shannon, who is an orphan,
twenty years of age, and who would
have had about 800 left him by his father,
when he came of age, gave out TO his nsso-
eiates that he was expecting farune from
Il reletive in Scotland. He went TO the
State of New ork and about two weeks ago
returned very flush of money. He stated
that he bad got the ant cipated fortune
and spont his money freely. He departed
very suddenly, and it was discovered that
a number of forged checks on IL. NJ. Mahb.
OF Pithole, were in circulation, and Austin
was sent on Shannon's track, and finally got
clue from discovering the wereabouts of u
Mrs. Nettie King, alias Mrs, Annie Hicks,
also from Pithoie, friend and aquaintunce
of Shannon.
The case aginst Shannon is said to he a
clear one, some Sl,lOC.oi the cb c,;s for llr.

dren, in the family setting room, when the
subject of the FAIR came up incidentally.
Not the slightest apparent Importance was
given to the matter; it was talked OF like
any other of the thousand and one little
topics which we all talk of dailys around
our iresdes, when Stanley remarked:
"Mother, l wish you would let me have a
lille money; believe l will go to that
fair.' To this the mother replied: ''Stan-
ley do wish you wouldn't ask me for mon
ey to go there. l wish you would not 60
