TERMS: i.5o per Annum in Advance

SENsATloNAL.-The residence of Mr..
WILLIAM TERRlLL, II farmer of the town
of Waldwick, has been the scene of con-
siderable excitement of late. Many
sensational versions Of the circumstances
are in circulation; we give the one prob.
ably nearest correct, as received from
Mr.. STEPHEN TERRlLL, brother of the
first named, and residing on an adioin-
ing farm:
Mrs WM TERRvI., a wife of but few
months, reported to her hunsdand
week or two ago that she had seen a
man masked and oddly dressed, lurking
about the place. Mr. TERRILL paid little
attention to the report, supposing either
that some one was playing practical
joke, or that his wife was deceived. a
few days after, however, an anonymous
letter was found in the house, stuck un-
der the window sash, addressed to Mrs.
TERRILL; saying among cther things that
Mrs, T. had "jilted' the writer and that
he was bound to have her dead or alive"
Within day or two after the receipt of
this letter, while the family was at din
ner, Mrs. TERRlLL, on going into the sum-
mer kitchen, found there the same mask
ed figure, she had seen before. She i'm =.
mediately gave the alarm when he ske.
daddled in hot haste, and Mr.. Terrill
rus he'd out lust i / time to see the lntrud.
er running into the woods. A few neigh
bors were then notified, and the woods
secured, but the fellow could not be
found. Since then he has been seen
several times around the place, by Mrs.
Ierrill and one or two others, but a ways
disappears into the woods on being dis
covered.
The affair causes considerable excite.
ment in the neighborhood Mrs. TER,
RiLL was never known to have received
attentions from any man before marriage
except her husband, and is unable to
conjecture who it can be that claims to
to have been Tilted If, as some peo,
pie think, it is only a practical joker,
amusing himself, he had better desIst,
for there is danger in his course, If, as
more believe, it is some villain having
designs upon Mrs r., either to frighten
or otherwise nersecute her, we hope he
may be caught and tarred and feathered,
rs he deserves to be.

AGGRIEvED.-The people of Platteyille
feel aggrieved by the comments Of the
Democrat, of this city, on the Base Ball
game played at the former place last
week, in which Mineral Point was de-
feated, Knowing the morbid prejudice
of all 'cops" against American citize ms
of African descent we suspect the att
tack on Pool was tempered to some ex~
tent by that prejudice. If Pools skin
was few shades whittier the Democrat
would scarcely be SO ready to attack him,
even though his conduct was no better
than reported The first essential quail
ity in good Democrat is hatred of the
Negro a respectable citizen of Platte-
vile requests the publication of the fol-
