Frederick Schait, last Friday evening. The

secutor's house. Schait was beaten on the

Our Newport Letter.

Newport, Oct 18th, 1871.
Last Sunday evening old Mr.. Hines met
with quite serious accident. AS he was
retiring for the night he made A mis-step
and fell down stairs, breaking two of his
ribs. DIR. Eby was called to his aid, and
he is now getting along comfortably.
Tuesday was the opening day of the
Perry Co. Fair, but on account of the bad
weather on that day but few articles were
entered until Wednesday, when quito a
large variety OF articles were offered. On
Wednesday and Thursday the fair was well
patronized the number of persons on the
grounds being quite large. One of the
most attractive features Of the fair was the
Floral display, by Mr. L. II. Nowviock of
Commercial Nursery, at Harrisburg. A
great variety of plants and flowers were
presented for the admiration of the visitors,
all of which were so tastefully arranged
that they attracted great attention. The
display of stock was small. A little excite
ment was caused on Friday morning, by
the cars frightening the horses attached to
a wagon belonging to the upper end of the
county. The pole of the wagon was broken
but the horses were secured before doing
more damage. -8

= Accidents.-On Thursday horse driven
around the fair ground by young man
named Gingrich, from Raccoon Valley be-
came unmanageable and ran away. The
wheel of the vehicle caught on post and
the driver, and Miss Anna Orwan who was
with him were thrown out. The young
lady was somewhat hurt but the young
man escaped injury. The vehicle was bad
ly demoralized. -
On the same day a young man, whose
name we could not learn, was thrown over
the dash of his buggy by the sudden stop
ping of his horse and for a few moments
was in danger, Of being run over. For
tunately his horse stood still until he was
released from his perilous position.
On Thursday p. IN. horse belonging to
Mr.. Samuel Withrow of Centre twp, walk
ed under projecting board Oh the roof of
the shed at the fair ground, entirely taking
the top off the rockaway to which he was
attached. This manner of "slifting top"
and turning a covered vehicle into an open
buggy, is too expensive method to be
generally adopted.
On Wednesday evening as Mr. George
Swartz of this borough was returning from
the fair, with load of ladies, the hind seat
of the wagon suddenly tilted in passing
over breaker, and threw Mrs. Gallatin
out backwards. She was partially stunned
and considerably Jared by the fall, but was
not seriously injured. .ft.I
Several other trihing accidents occurred
on the fair ground, mostly the result of
reckless driving, and over-doses of "Ben-
zine" ...

Dear Sir-I am now like Micawber, wait

ting anything further on the Judgeship,
must wait to see what will be the result of
my teachings. If the rights Of Carlisle are
maintained at the ballot-box, will, next
week, return my thanks to those who have
so faithfully supported Cumberland coun-
ty's claim, and by so doing have settled the
question of "title by prescription. If 1
am defeated, and the people should so far
forget their dignity as to elect Perry coun-
ty man, as now fear they will, shall fall

to attract any sympathy. The people SEEM

After going into the Office the Doctor seeing

Mysterious HOles.-The Bucks County
Inteligencer says Somebody has been dig
ging mysterious holes in the ground, at
points near the intersection of the County
Line road and the Willow Grove Turnpike.
They were first discovered by William
Hallowell, while, trimming hedge He
came 20 place where the earth had been
disturbed, and taking a shovel dug out a
place where the earth was already loosened
to depth of six feet, without making any
discovery
This hole was filed up again by some un-
known person, and two others dug in the
same vicinity. One of these was afterwards
cleared out by Joseph Paul of Warrington
and was found to he nine feet deep. The
object of these excavations is altogether
mysterious. It is possible that some half
crazy individual may have been searching
for Captain Kidd's mythical deposits, or
some other equally visionary object,
