Barned,-on Saturday night last about IL
o'clock the barn OF. MIR. John w. Fore, near
Marysville, In Campbell county, was totally
destroyed by fire. There were six fine
mules and one horse in tho barn, all OF
which persisted in the flames. The build.
ing also contained one hundred and fifty
barrels OF corn, large quantity OF hay
oats. and fodder. two wagons, buggy, q
threshinc machine and other valuable aEri-
cultural implements, Nc., all Of which were
totally destroyed. From the barn the fire
spread to n straw rick. some fifty or seven.
ty-tirc yards distant, the whole of which
was also consumed.
Mr.. Forc's loss cannot he less than -. 900
or $4,000. upon which there was no insur-
ancc.
Circumstances tend strongly to fix the
guilt OF this diabolcal deed upon negro
named Sawncy Payne, who lived on the

lodged in Jail al Campbell Court houSc yes

wounded. The police made many arrests

Powerful Tonic,

Promoting the Appetite and InvIgorating the
while Digestive Apparatus, thus building up
and strengthening the system, while at the
same time the volatile principle, being alb
sorbed in the blood, acts specifically ON the
Rheumatic Poison, removing il from the circu-
latiOn and system.
There are few remedies known to the Medical
Profession which will remove the Rheumatic
Poison from the blood, but whose action is 50
powerful In depressing the system OF the al
ready enfeebled Rheumatic patient, that their
use has to be abandoned before specific effects
are obtainable, and hence the want Of success
in treating this prevalent and consequently
heretofore incurable disease. Unlike these
medicines, already known, the UNK WEED
REMEDY, although producing as active and as
powerful effects on the blood and system in re-
moving the Rheumatic Poison, also Possesses
strong Tonic and Recuperating Element which
admits OF its continued use even by tile most
delicate and debilitated. Thus we have the
combination for the first time Of these two
necessary elements in one remedy, which ac-
counts for its superior and never-faling curative
effects in rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout and
Rheumatic Pains Of all kinds.
y. r. The INK WEED REMEDY Is partic-
ularly APPLICABLE TO LADIES, i'm conse-
quence Ofits Tonic Qualities.

The NEW MONMOUTH CoLLEGE.-The
Christian Messenger announces that
work has been commenced on the Col
lege building by digging the trench
preparatory to laying the foundation for
the building, and in a few days the brick
masons will begin operations. Mr..
Simons has the entire framework ready
for raising, and the doors and windows
and other parts of the woodwork are
daily arriving from Salem, where they
are manufactured. 1t is thought the
building will be ready for use by Christ

PROGRESS OF THE RAILRoAD.-The
bridge at Harrisburg, says the Eugene
Journal, viii not be completed as soon
rs expected, some time ago. 1t was the
intention to construct a temporary
bridge on which to cross the material to
complete the road TO this point, but this
project has been abandoned, and when
the first locomotive crosses the bridge il
will be in good order. The bridge will be
ready for trains to pass over about the
first of October. The work on the road
south of here is progressing rapidly.
With the exception Oft two short stretches
there are now fourteen miles of cOnsec-

MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERs.-It was
a judiciOus resolution of a father, as
well as a most pleasing compliment to
his wife, when, on being asked by q
friend what he intended to do with his
girls, he replied, ''I intend to apprentice
them to their mother, that they may
learn the art of improving time, and be
fitted to become wives, mothers, heads
of families, and useful members of soci-
ety." Equally just, but bitterly painful
was the remark of the unhappy hus-
band Of vain, thOughtless, dressy slat-
tern, ''It is hard to say il, but If my
girls are to have a chance of growing
up. good for anything, they must be sent
out OF the way of their mothers exam

notice that our friend Major Magone is

of arresting dealers engaged illegally in
the liquor business. BY a somewhat
amusing typographical error it was an
nOunced in one Of our daily papers lately
that the Major himself was arrested for
Illicit liquor dealing at Shutdown, Lane

The CHURCH BELL NUISANCE
There are quite a number of churches in
this city and we believe that each one
of them has beli-at least one would
70 Judge from the "clamor and the
clangOr of the bells" on Sundays. We
happen 20 be so peculiarly unfortunate
as to reside opposite the stately edifice
where hangs the bell which summons
Dr. Lindsley's congregation forth to
worship. Sunday morning the bell
commences its ding, dong, ding; imme-
diately it would seem from a hundred
brazen thrOats all over the city rever-
berates a Babel of believing sound, the
bell Of each particular denomination
seenaing to strive to Outvie all others
/. Ne do not know the exact length of
time that this is kept up, but it Ger
tainlv dos seem like a good while-we
should iudga not less than seven or
eight minutes. Then in few minutes
follows the se6Snd ringing Of the bell for
the morning service, and the foregoing
is repeated. At noon there is another
ringiag for Sunday school, followed in
due course Of time by the ringing for
the evening prayer meeting, and then,
ast g all, the ringing for the evening
service. We would like to see a mathe-
matical calculation made of the time
unnecessarily consumed in the ringing
Of all the bells in this city on the Sab
bath. Here's a chance for a mathema-
tician. Now, we have no objection to
bells being rung on Sunday, but we
would like to see a little reason displayed
in it, This prolonged aud unnecessary
ringing is very trying on unstrung
nerves, and if anybody We're lying low
on bed of sickness near one of these
sounding monsters, we think no conipee
tent physician would be willing to an
swer for the result. Please, brethren, US
little moderation in this matter, and
DO lei US have little peace on the Lords
Day.
