Struck by Lightning.

DIR. Porter has furnished us with
the following particulars of the strik-
ing by lightning of Mr.. Joshua Fra
house, on Monday evening last i:
he lives n mile south of Hamburg.
this county : MI. Frazier lives in a
two story house Of four rooms, two
below and two above ; in one of the
upper rooms q stove was standing,
pipe extending to third floor, and from
there a brick hue extending through
the roof; in the lower room, and al.
most directly under this stove, stood
Mrs. Frazier, holding her baby, but
two months old. The lightning struck
the Aue, passing down and striking
Mrs. Frazier on top Of her head, pass
ing down to back of the neck, thence
round over the left shoulder passing
down, blistering a surface of nearly
three inches in width. The child was
blistered from the umbilicus to both
knees /; two large holes through flannel
shirt, and same very much scorched ;
eye winkers burned off. and lids in
famed so much that it cannot open
them. The hair of both mother and
child was badly scorched around the
neck. Both appeared lifeless for half
an hour, when Mrs. Frazier showed
signs of returning vitality. Mr.. Fra
zier then procured assistance, and
strange as it may appear, both are now
doing well, and will, without doubt,

Putting up Sweet Corn.

A lady reader of the Rural Meu
Yorker contributes to that journal a
recipe for putting up sweet corn for
winter use hat we have faith in; but
we hesitate about copying it so early
in the season, for fear the house keep
ers who read this paper will not bear
it in mind till the proper a ar
riyes for testing it, and thus fail to
reap the benefits of it. City dwellers,
however, are not the best judges OF
the time" which fruits and flowers
shall have-and vegetables and grains
as well-the first appearance not unfre-
quently taking us quite by surprise
and for aught, we know, the time for
green corn, ''the gladdest of the year"
is higher than we dream ; and we are
encouraged to believe this is the case
by the memory of an early lesson
learned in u spelling book days,
and evidently written for the encour-
agement of the impatient like our
selves, said lessons being conveyed in
the form of a positive assertion, thus:
81 had some green corn in July on q
But here is the recipe: Cut
the corn off the cobb, the same as for
succotash; put it into a stone jar in
with salt between each layer
1 have no regular rule, but say, to
each layer of cor two inches thick a
good handful of cooking salt; when
the jar is full, put a plate with a heavy
stone on top. When taking out for
use, wash the corn well and soak over
night then cook the same as dried
corn.

The Pope.

The Heralds Rome letter contains
information that the Pope has selected
the Island of Corsica as a place of
future retreat, though any determine
ton on his part to leave Rome has not
vet been made apparent, and that Car
dinal Antonelli has had a chateau at
Corte placed at the disposal of the
Holy Father, which is being extensive
" fitted up for his reception.
The publication Of the Pope's letter
against the revolutionary journals has
diminished the sale of these sheets
about one half, and their total disap-
pearance at this rate will be witnessed
in a short time; but Notwithstanding
this result, the revolutionists are at
work with newspaper organs, and a
new journal entitled Luther has been
projected which is aimed at the de-
struction of the Pope.
The Pope, replying to a deputation
of Roman citizens who presented him
contributions-"Peter's pence"-said
that, while relying little ON the pro.
phesies contained in books, yet it was
written that the time would come
when the Holy See would be forced to
live upon the charities of the world,
but never would be wanting money.

Is Grant a Dictator 7?

We have often called the attention
of our readers to the danger of con-
ferring so much power on President
Grant. The New York Sam, q lead
ing Republican paper, raises its voice
against the Dictator, thus:
Why does General Grant declare
war against Governor Warmoth of
Louisiana? Warmoth has kept the
State well in hand for the Republican
party. Under his rule there has not
been a Ku-Klux outrage in Louisiana,
and the usually turbulent city of New
Orleans has been as quiet and peacea
BILE as Boston.
What, then, is the matter with
Warmoth that Grant should require
his Copperhead brother-in-law Casey,
Collector of New Orleans, and his
cousin General Longstreet, late of the
Confederate army, and now Surveyor
of the Port of New Orleans, and all
the other Federal oficeholders in
Louisiana, to combine to crush the
man who has been more successful in
keeping his State Republican than
any of the other carpet-bag rulers ?
The answer is at hand. General
Warmoth seriously doubts whether
General Grant can carry the recon
structed States in 1872, and therefore
he has ventured to hint at the inexpe-
diency of his denomination. This Is
an offence not to be forgiven, and so
| Casey, by order of Grant, promises
to make Dunn Governor next year.
and calls in his troops to put War
moth down.
What a strange and alarming spec
tacle was exhibited on the day of the
assembling of the Louisiana Conven-
ton. The Federal officeholders first
designated the Custom House as the
place of meeting. The United States
| Marshal then summoned four compa-
mics of regular troops, with a battery
of artillery, from Texas, to resist the
| entrance to the Custom House OF all
delegates who doubted the expectancy
of Grants denomination; and bravely
did the Swiss guards of the President
execute his will But for their bay
onets he would have been beaten out
of sight in the Convention, for ninty oil
the one hundred and eighteen delegates
were friendly to the policy of war
moth, and only a day or two before,
Warmoth had badly beaten Collector
Casey for a seat in the Convention
from one of the wards in New Orleans

Exit P~leasonton,

For some months, Commissioner
Pleasonton and Secretary Boutwell,
have had a controversy about red tape.
Boutwell, insisted hat Pleasonton was
a mere figure head, subject to his d.
rections, and the latter contending that
he could regulate his Department.
Appeals were made to the great Ulyss
to remove the one or rebuke the other.
For a long time Ulyss refused to inter-
fere. But lately he was forced to the
wall, and finally invited Pleasonton to
resign. He refused. The great man
ofLong Branch, ~thereupon suspended
him under the tenure of office act.
Mr., j. w. Douglass, Chief Clerk, is
appointed to gil the vacancy until the
meeting of Congress The President
is remarkably unfortunate in the selec-
ton of his Cabinet and Department
officers. More removals and suspen-
siops have taken place under Grant,
than during any administration since
the organization of the government.
In 1872 thspeople Of the United States
will invite him to retire to the shades
of private lie. He is now admitted

State Rights.
his going

Hon. John M. Harlan, the defeat
ed Republican candidate for Cover
nor of Kentucky, is reported to have
declared in a speech in 1866, that:
"Ifthe American people continue the
Radical party in power, they will do so at
their peril, for it is the avowed purpose of
the leaders of that party to subvert our civil
institutions and centralize the Government"
Mr.. Harlan, is now deemed good
Republican authority. Ambition and
plumber havea powerful influence v
the minds of men who are destitute of
integrity and principle. The fact that
the Democracy are the champions of
the reserved rights of the States, and
the infexible% opponents of centraliz-
ed consolidated despotism at Wash
ington cannot be disputed. Mr.. Har-
Ian was right when he predicted that
the Republican party, ifkept in power,
intended to subvert the government of
our fathers, and substitute a centraliz-
ed despotism like that of France,
Prussia and England, in which the
reserved rights of States would be
trodden dcwnand wholly disregarded.
Every step of the Republican party
cvinces a deliberate intention to grasp
unauthorized power, and consolidate
it in the hands of the Despot at Wash
Nothing but the ~strictest Wig
lance can prevent the accomplishment
of the designs of the Radical party.
If they succeed. u government will
be overthrowp. Instead of having a
government by the people, we will be
controlled by large standing armies,
military Satraps, and devoured by the
eaters, bondholders, the land
thieves and corporations. Choose ye.

NJ oRAcY TRIUMPHANT.
LESLIE ELECTED GOVERNOR.
BY IS, coo MAJORITY !!

The Democracy Of Kentucky have
achieved a great victory. The Radi-
calls have increased their vote by the
number of negroes enfranchised in the
State. That the negroes would. vote
with the Radicals was expected, but
the State is firmly ranged in the ranks
of the National Democracy. The De
mocracy have the Governor, State Off
GERS, and Legislature. The majority
of Governor Leslie, is reported to~be
$4,000. This is a Democratic gain
over the aggregate majorities of last
year of over 1900, notwithstand-
ing the negro vote. This is a great
victory and shows conclusively that
Kentucky will give a majority of more
than 10000 against the political i'm
beetle of the White House. Three
cheers for .Old Kentuck."

Oscar o. Otis, of Toledo, who had
been in the employ of the Toledo,
Wabash and Western Railway Com
pany as conductor for about ten years,
having been discharged from that po-
sition about two months since, in con-
sequence of drinking and the COM
pany not believing that he could sup
port two families, one at Toledo and
the other at Antioch, Indiana, on his
salary, shot himself on Wednesday,
the ball lodging in the back of his
head, below the brain, where it C.
mains. He has a fair chance of re-
covery. 1t seems that q woman at
Antioch known as Nellie Clark, or
Nellie Shaw, succeeded in securing a
large share of Otis attention and a full
lions share of his money. His wife
discovered the fact. Hence the at

has visited the japanese, the Chinese,
the people of India, Egypt, Palestine,
Persia, Arabia and Turkey, and feast
ed and slept in palace and tent, and
enjoyed the hospitality of Tycoon,
Sultan, Shah and Shiek. Seward, is
now an old man, worn by the cares
of State, and haunted by the ghost OF
a murdered woman. He has Travelled
around the globe, been beneath the
scorching rays of a tropical sun, and
the chilling frosts of northern climes,
seeking rest for his body and calm for
his mind, but amid all his wanderings
upon the billowy deep, on the sandy
deserts, or in the midst of the balmy
fragrance of the tropics, he has not
been able to shield himself from the
gaze of poor Mrs. Surratt. The jingle
of the "little BELLS" is ever ringing in
his ears and the wrongs he inflicted
upon patriotic Americans %contending
for the liberty of speech and of the
press continue to haunt him wherever
he turns! He sails in government
vessels. and travels at government ex-
pense like a member of the Royal
and yet the old man grows
grayer and feebler in his efforts to es-
cape the lashings of his conscience.
The summons to 'tpass in his checks"
will soon overtake him, and then he
will be face to face with Vallandig-
ham, Odds, Surratt and the many 9th
ers he SO deeply ~wronged. A misera-

No escape from a disastrous defeat in
the Convention was therefore left open
Tn Grant except by excluding from
the Custom House by military power
the regular delegates, and packing the
Convention with bogus delegates
Mr.. Pinchback, who presided over the
Warmoth or regular convention, is
the ablest member of the State Senate,
and II of the most influential colored
citizens of Louisiana.
1t may be attempted to show that
Grant does not approve of these high
handed proceedings. 1t will be in
vain, for does not every body who
notes the occurrences at the royal
lodge at Long Branch know that two
or three weeks ago, brother in.law Ca
sey spent a few days there i'm close
consultation with Grant? And is
there so big a fool in the country as
not to be sur that the New Orleans
programme was then arranged, to the
holding the Convention in the Custom
House, the summoning of the troops
from Texas, and the exclusion of the
anti-Grant delegates by the use of the
:?
IF an insane ambition had rot blind
ed Grant to all sense of propriety and
appreciation of the rising indigna-
ton of the Independent voters of the
country at his use of regular troops to
secure his denomination, we might
ask him if he thinks he can confront
that indignation at the ballot boxes
in 1872? In contesting the Presiden-
tial campaign, does he imagine that he
is at the head of an army on the field
battle?
This savage and selfish war of
Grant against Warmoth will bear its
fruits. 1t will doubtless
break in pieces the Republican party
Of Louisiana, and throw the State into
hands of the Democrats next year.
will certainly do this if Grant is
then in the field as the Republican
nominee for the Presidency.

Disaster At Vienna,
1too Keys Of Pooder Explode at Visnna
The B"ildsng Torn to Pieces
Several Persons Killed and Injured.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 9.--On Tuesday
evening, while I. M. Bennett, proprie-
tor of a dry goods and grocery store
at Vienna, Clark county, Ohio, was
drawing rose oil from a large can in
the back room of the establishment,
the fluid Or gas from it was ignited
from candle he had, filling the room
with flames. Thirty or forty persons
in the village rushed to the house, to
the assistance of Bennett, and to save
property, when two kegs of powder
which We're in the building exploded,
sending an immense column Of flame,
reaching the building, which fell,
burying four persons, David johnson,
Alfred Clark, Henry Baldwin, and
A. Gordon, who received such inju-
ries that they cannot recover. In ad-
dition to these, Valentine Nicely was
badly bruised and burned about the
face, Mrs. s. Smiths body badly
bruised and two fingers broken, Mrs.
Ella Frock's head severely cut, and
others received slight injuries. One
account states that twenty sever per-
sons were more or less hurt. Mr..
Bennett escaped uninjured. Drs.
Bafnwall, Higgard, Hunter and 9TH
ers have been busy caring for the
sufferers.
