The New York World speaks of the dis
order last Wednesday as the ''Orange

which our own newspapers have fire.

''Nigger Riot where body of rowdy

relation to the truth. ...

DEATH OF A HERMIT.
Singular Effects or Disappoiutmen
H lu Lava


From the Erie PENN Republican,
An old man named Buck, for years q
resident of East Conneaut, Ohio, died q
few days ago. That he should shuttle
off this mortal coil is nothing strange,
for we know that the young may die and
the old must; but as there is something
behind all this Of an eccentric character
in this individuals life, the local, "
knowing him as he did for years, may be
pardoned for recording page or two Of
his history:
Years ago Mr.. B. formed an attach
ment fora young lady latter the manner
set forth by other mortals), and in pro-
cess of time made an avowal in due
form, as an honest swain should, and
was rejected by the rustic sylph. The
young man (for he was young at that
tine) was not prepared for such a rem
dering Of affairs, and without even n
remonstrance at his charmers decision,
he gave up the society OF the fair sex at
once and forever purchased a seques-
tered spot remote from the haunts Of
men, or the prying eyes Of woman,
reared cot, staked out his earthly do
main, and settled down into state Of
ultra single blessedness." Bnt this
decision was not the most remarkable
or noteworthy feature in this eccentric
case; for, from the time of such settle
ment in his hermitic home, he began
to cultivate habits which grew upon
him rs life advanced, and made
him at the age OF eighty years
perfect nondescript, even among
eccentricians. After rearing his house
and furnishing it with.the comforts for
which the heart of maf longeth, he pro-
ceeded to create from his own rib and
person a woman, by allowing his hair 10
grow long and the purchase of com
plete wardrobe of female apparel, and
from that time forward, when at homep
he designated himself as Miss Buck, and
never appeared in another character, un-
less some one called, as was sometimes
the case, and asked for Mister Buck
Being without ushers, he answered in
person what few calls he had. For in
stance, when he went to the village to
lay in a few of the necessaries of life
he made the journey in the garb of q
man; and if, after having returned, he
had not changed his toilet and was called
upon by some curious specimen of hu-
manity, he would ask such person
whether it was desirable to g interview "
Mister or Miss Buck. In case the female
deer was asked for, his reply invariably
was, " | will inform the young lady, and
she will greet you in due time" So also
in case the male member of the house
hold was wanted, and he was crinolined,
a metamorphosis was gone through with
by which Venus was changed into Adonis
in a space of time little greater than that
required by William Horace Lingard in
his famous representation of the sexes.
This man had great variety of costly
dresses, such as are worn by females, as
well as clothing worn by the male fra
.ernity. Such is lie I" in one disap-
pointed love affair.

The hunter, almost frightened out of
his wits, obeyed the command with
alacrity, and the strange old man was
never seen again by mortal eyes. His
leave by the water is still unknown,
but a skeleton was subsequently found
in the vicinity of the Devils Marble
yard"

VniIandirham's Last Law case.

The Mcclellan murder trial, the case
in which the Hon. O. l.. Vallandigham
was engaged as counsel at the time of
his death, has created great interest in
Southern Ohio on account of certain
political relations, and because its oc-
cuTence involved the exposure Of many
prominent men Of Hamilton, Ohio, as
frequenters of a faro den. On the night
of December 9th, Thomas Meyers,
Republican, was shot, as alledged, in a
gambling saloon, by one of a party of
five men, who, according to the indict-
ment, entered the place with intent to
commit the murder, and according to a
preconcerted conspiracy. The five men
were Thomas Mcclellan, (now on trial
Jack Carver, Daniel McGlynn, James
Mcclellan and Ich. Shelley all Demo-
Gratis. The charge against them each is
identical, and the latter four will be
tried in turn after Thomas Mcclellan.
