A frigbtfui affair happened at
Nicholas Station, tive miles south of
West Liberty, on tire night of the
2Slh prox. The Wilton Chronicle
says that the proprietor of the only
store in that place upset Kerosene
lamp. The oil Ignited and the flames
spread, threatening destruction TO
the whole establishment, but more
especially did the man think Of keg
Of gun~powder, which the fire. was
rapidly approaching, aud Of his wife
and children quietly sleeping In the
room above. With remarkable pre-
sence of mind he rushed up stairs,
seized his slumbering treasurers,
rushed down aud with them, hasten
ed from impending death. They had
scarcely gained the opposite side OF
the street before tie powder explod-
ed, scattering the building to the
four winds, leaving nothing on the
old site but a part OF the foundation.

OK last Thursday, in the United States

z On last Thursday. in the United States
Senate, the bill for the suppression of the
Ku Klux murderers OF the South, being
under consideration, their great cham
pion and aspirant for the Presidency,
Senator Thurman made a lengthy speech
against the bill. During the debate,
Senator Sumner took oecasi on to re-
mark
Mr.. SUMNER, of Mass. asserted the
right and duty of national protection
where the life. liberty or property of in
diyidual citizens W ere imperilsd, and es-
pecially where. as in tile case of freed
men; that citizen had been friend of the
government. That fearful olltrages had
been perpetrated in the South could not
be denied, and the power of Congress
was ample. No cry of fcentralism or im
perialisM could deter him. lie was for
the centraliSm of liberty and the impe-
rialism of equal rights. Once the nation
served slavery in the interest of State
rights. Now it must serve liberty even
to !; denial of State rights.
Mr. THURMAN inquired whether the
Senator (Sumncr) intended to vote Tor
the bill
Mr.. SUMNER replied that he did.
We don't think that Thurman's recent
admiration of Senator Sumner is likely
to endure very long. The fact is that
there is not a solitary Democratic leader
in the country but intensely despises
Sumner. If they think they can use the
Senator to injure the Republican party,
they then pat him on the shoulder and
make hypocritical pretenses of admira-
ton. The Senator knows what estima-
tion to put on such professions.

A Fatal Accident.

SEVILLE. March PA fatal acci-
dent occurred in Milton township,
Wayne Co., last Friday afternoon.
A young man aged 20 years, named
Winters, while engaged in running
the machinery for cutting slaves, at
tached to Dawson's portable saw mill.
slipped, and in his attempts to regain
foothold, his foot caught between
two heavy cog wheels drawing his
leg into the machinery up TO the knee,
crushing it in terrible manner. The
arrangement Of the machir cry was
such that it took almost an hour to
remove min from the horrible posi-
ton in which he was placed. During
the fearful hour of torture, he did not
utter complaint or groan, but as
soon as he was removal he tainted.
His limb was amputated by Dr. Fire
stone, of Wooster. The patient died
soon after, making eight victims in
that township, within a year, who have
met terrible deaths from accidents in
portable saw mills, it being less than q
year since seven men were killed at
Eliott's, on the A. & G. w. R'y, at
one time, by tue explosion of a boiler
in one Of those mills.-dcron Be tcoR.

SINCE the great German Peace Jubilee,
New York city claims to be the German
Fatherland. Bv the way, the New York
Times makes this comment: No one
who saw the German procession yester-
day can have failed to mark its i'm
mense superiority over those Struggling,
monotonous. and unprepossessing
crowds which take possession of the city
every now and then for the purpose of
receiving distinguished Irish gentlemen
or doing honor to some mythical saint.
Our German feliow-citizens got up the
best street show which has been seen in
this city, and they did not think it ne
cessary to nd'up the day by commit
ting assaults on unoffending spectators.
The rapidity with which the people
forming the procession, dispersed after
the march was one of the most striking
feature of the day. 1t was great and
memorable event that the German cele-
brated. and they went about the work in
spirit worthy of the occasion"

A PAINFUL VISIT. Thursday eve.
ming, Il young man named John Herrold.
became somewhat obfusticated. He had
enough liquor down him to make him
pugnacious. and on paying a visit to the
house of Mrs. Grosenbaum, on High
street, he felt that he had right to enter
even if the inmates objected. On the
door being shut in his face, he kicked it
and otherwise vented his spleen. A man
inside objected to this procedure and
shot Mr.. Herrold through the shoulder
blade. This caused the young man to
make tracks, and he now with sore
back, looks back upon his little spree
with feelings akin to sorrow.-Akron
Times.
THE New York Sun gives several
reasons for opposing Grant, each one
of which is based upon a falsehood
clear and well defined, aud omits the
true reason, which was tie refusal
of the President TO appoint Chas. A

York Cincinnati Gazette.

A Temperance Party.

The ChriStiaR Adcocdte has an ar
tlcle on Temperance and Politics.
One of its paragraphs is as follows:
We have come to have only very
limited confidence, not to say respect,
for Hirj parties in politics, except as
holding and carefully welding the
balance of power. For rarty based
upon any single moral issue, how
ever great and important, success is
hopeless. Only q comparatively
small traction of the whole body of
voters will range themselves in such
a body, so that to attempt to carry
measure simply by forming politi-
cal party for its support is an absurd
ity. The only possible way TO sue
cess in such a movement is for the
! third party to make no nominations,
but to hold its votes in hand to Ee
used as needed for influencing other
parties in the character of their nom
nations and the measures set forth
in their platforms. With twenty per
cent. of the voters in any State or
DlSlllCb "oh OcNh POI
ties will be compelled by their own
interests to satisfy the balance of
power parly by making such nomina-
tions and declaring such principles
and purposes as the courted power
may exact. The ''Anti Corn Law
League" of Great Britain, prob ably
never had the support of so large a
proportion of the English voters, and
yet the party in power dared not to
offend its leaders, or refuse their de-
mand. The decided anti slavery
Men of the United States, at no time
previous to the war, probably ever
amounted to q fifth part of the voters
Of the States, and yet one of the par
ties was compelled to accede to that
comparatively small proportion ofthe
people, while the others refusing to
do so, went to the wall. Only let
the thorough and devoted friends of
the temperance cause make the re-
solve that they will vote for no man
of whatever patty, for any office at
all affecting that interest, who is not
pie lged, personally and politically to
its support, and let that resolve be
fairly understood aud there pill be
no occas Oh to form new temper
ance party.

In THE RIVER. On Saturday night
last, about 10 o'clock, as Mr.. james
Basom was crossing the wire bridge
he heard cry for help, apparently
from the river in the rear of the
Churn Factory He immeadiatel V an
swered the call and tried to find out
where the person in distress was. He
could not find him, and suppose
some one was attempting to play q
trick upon him AS he was leaving,
the cry was again heard, and Mr..
Basom weHt up town and got watch
man Kisinger and together they went
back, and by the light Of 4 lantern
found fellow in the river, where the
water was about two feet deep, cling
ing to q post He was taken out and
led to Engine House No, l and warm
ed up. He said his name was j..
George, and shat he represented Gin
cinnati liquor house. He left San
duskey City, saturday morning.
Slightly intoxicated, arrived in Tiflin
and attempted to do business. He
sampled" his own liquors pretty
freely and by night was very drunk,
and supposes that lie was trying to
find place wherein to lay himself,
back ofthc Churn Factory, when he
got into the river. 1t was very for
! tuuate that he was discovered or lie
would have perished.-TlGfH Tribune.

OK last Friday, while Mr.. Andrew
Diehl was driving his wagon, the hind
wheel struck stump and stopped
his wagon. throwing MIR. Diehl from
his seat He fell considerably for
ward with much of the weight OF his
body on his face, striking the ground
with great violence. 1t is supposed
that his face struck n small stump or
root, for while his upper lip was fear
fully gashed on the right OF his face
to the extent OF two or three inches,
his upper Jaw was broken literally
across his face from ear to ear, above
the roots of the teeth.
On Sunday we visited Our friend,
and found him better than We had ex-
pected, but with gashed face and
broken upper jaw very severely hurt
at the best.--BucyrHs Journal.

lo SAD CALAMITY.-The widow Muir
phy and her son lost their stable and
a fine team of horses, harness, etc :.
on Friday night last, by fire. During
the day, they had been burning brush
on their little place just across the
river, in Buck township, and at night
had, as they supposed, outened the
fire and about 10 o'clock retired. =
Some time after midnight the stable
was discovered to be on fire but it
was SO enveloped in flames that it was
impossible to save anything and
everything il contained was destroy
ed. This is sad blow to these poor
bat honest people and we hope a
charitable public will make good their
unhappy lnisfortunc.--Ksnton Re

a PRACFIcAL TEMPERANCE LECT
URE. On Saturday last man by the
name OF Harris, living in Cessna
township, came to town and became
intoxicated. While in this eondi-
ton he attacked a man by the name
Minnie in Conaway's barbershop on
the south side of the square with some
insulting advances. Upon being put
out of this place, he watched for his
man, and meeting him again at the
Free and Easy Saloon proceeded to
urge his insulting threats and mena-
ces. In the melee which followed,
Harris was knocked down and in the
fall, his right leg was broken in two
places below the knee. He was car.
ried into the drug store of Messrs.
Rogers & hesney, and his limbs
properly set and dressed by DR.. Ches-
ney. Harris will probably be laid up
for some time with his wounds, AMI
being a married man OF course his
family will suffer from the mishap.
This is a practical temperance lecture
to the community at large as well as
to Harris, and we hope will have a
strong tendency to stop drunkenness
in our midst,-Kenton Republican.

We delayed expressing an opinion so
