when The little fellow came from the other
room where he had been playing with the
other children, and stepping backward fell

by the scalding water. or how he suffered

The Buffalo Advertiser, notwithstand-
ing its blind devotion to GRANT, has oe-
casional lucid moments. The following
paragraph is an evidence of the fact:
"For six years We have been reconstrue-
ting the South, and now the report Is that
it's condition is as bad as ever. Very
well. Then let another plan be tried; let
all proscriptive laws be repealed; Iet the
Southern States be put into the hands OF
the Southern people; and see if affairs
will not grow better. We mean, Of course,
better for the State and the country at
large. We do not suppose that carpet
bsg politicians would thrive under such
an experiment"

BARN BURNEp.-The barn of Adam
Phillips, residing on his farm west of the
creek and north of the cemetery, was
barned down Wednesday morning about
l o'clock, consuming three horses, buggy
and harness. $50 bushels Of corn, hun
dred bushels of oats, and his winters hay
The barn was a new one, and the loss is
a serious one to Mr. Phillips, who is an
industrious man and most excellent citi-
zen. OF course, it was the work of an
Incendiary and the loss must be two or
three thousand dollars. Before Mr.. Phil
lips saw the fire the work of devastation
had made such progress that nothing
could be saved.

THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST GRANT.
The administration & the journalists Of

thrown into q terrible state Of excitement

other day in Washington newspaper TO
the effect that there was formidable
conspiracy" on foot by certain notable
persons, among whom we were made 70

Presidency. The werd conspiracy was
of course used in the Imperial sense, to IN
dicate . crime. That Is logical, and &C
cords with the whole Grant programme.
attempt was made to interview us on this
subiect. but we declined the honor, and at
present only desire to predict that Grant
may be beaten before he becomes a candi .
date; but should he run in the next can
vass we will further predict that he will
be sloughed along with the spolls Repub-
licans, like dead branch, from the whole
some body of the country, with an ad-
verse majority such as never disgraced a
Presidential candidate before - Roscoe
Conkling and Henry Wilson to the con-
trary notwithstanding. By and by we
shall be more free to speak upon this sub
ject.
The further developments promised will
be awaited with interest, though they can
hardly amount to more than that which
the country knows already-that Grant
has disguised the decent men of his party
with his meanness and exasperated them
by his brutal ideas of force at any profel
of advice or suggestion of reform made tC
