EsB" A curious case has just been de-
cided in the Supreme Court of Wisconsin.
A Mr. Schuet, an unnaturalized resident Of
Waukesha county, was elected in last No

the election and before the appointed time
for entering upon his official duties, Mr..
Schuet took out his certificate of naturali-

while an alien cannot vote, he may be voted
for; and though not qualified to hold an of
flee when elected, he may remove the dis
qualification by subsequent acquisition OF
citizenship, and then lawfully serve.

Exciting Scene in a Newark Curch.

An extraordinary scene was recently en-
acted in st. Peters Catholic church, Bel
mont Avenue, Newark, New Jersey. About
eleven o'clock in the forenoon, work
man employed in the basement of the cdi-
flee heard q loud noise, as of something
heavily falling on the floor overhead
Promptly entering the body of the church
he found clinging to the upper part of the
altar, some fifteen feet from the ground, q
perfectly nude man. The latter had climbed
to his position and had already hurled from
their place, the handsomely carved stat
ues of Saints John and Elizabeth, and was
then doing his best to accomplish the same
result with that of the Virgin. 1t appears
that after divesting himself of every parti-
Gle of clothing, he mounted from one niche
to another, having meanwhile destroyed
with his dirty feet the rich lace dressing of
the altar Over all was an image of the
crucifxion, and it is believed that his pur-
pose was also to hurl the image of the Sa-
viour from its position. Mr.. Warger, Mr..
George Nichol, and some worllmen pro-
cured ladder, and after desperate strug-
gle with the lunatic qor such he proved to
be), succeeded in getting him down, dres-
sing him, and then causing him to be re-
moved to the station-house and securing
him in one of the cells. His name is John
Runk. lie is German trunkmal1er, with
out family, and about 80 years of age. His
brother, to whom he was closely attached
died recently, and since then John has
grieved himself into a state of raving
lunacy.
A few nights ago he visited Rev. God
fried Prieth and desired to stay in his house
all night, saying he dared not stay at home
for fear of his dead brother. On Thursday
night the poor fellow attempted to set fire
to the house of his landlord, Mr.. Belcher,
of No. 154 Barclay street, and on Friday
morning he imagined himself to be Jesus
Christ, and gained an entrance at the rear
door of the church with the intention, as
he said, of casting down all false lights.
He is still secured at the station house.
The damage done to the church sanctuary
will cost considerably to repair.

Terrible Earthquake in China.

The American minister in China sends
the following account of a terrible earth
quake which happened in one of the Chi
nese provinces:
"About II o'clock, u. m., on the 18th of
April, 1870, the earth trembled so violently
that the Government Offices, temples, gran
aries, stone and store houses, and fortifica-
tions, with all the common dwellings, and
the Temple Of Tyng-Lin were at once over
thrown and ruined. The only exception
was the hall in the Temple grounds called
Ia Chao, which stood unframed in its
isolation.
"a few of the troops and people escap-
ed, but most of the inmates were crushed
and killed under the falling timber and
stone. Flames also suddenly burst out in
four places, which strong winds drove
with smoke, and their roaring was mingled
with lamentations of the distressed people.
On the 18th the flames were beaten down,
but the rumbling noises were still heard
BlOullu anu lIlc
earth rocked and rolled like ship in a
storm, at the mercy of the waves. The
multiplied miseries of the afflicted inhabi-
tants were increased by thousand fears,
but in about ten days matters began to
grow quiet, and the motion to cease.
I" AS nearly as is ascertained, there were
destroyed two large temples, the offices of
the Collector of Grain Tax, the local mag
istrate, and the colonel of the Ting-Lin
Temple, and nearly 700 fathoms of wall
around it, and 351 rooms in all inside six
smaller temples numbering 221 rooms, be-
side 1949 rooms and houses of the common
people. The number of the common peo-
pie, soldiers and Ilamas killed by the
crash was 229S, among whom were magis-
trate and his second in office.

A Fight with q Burglar.

On Tuesday night two burglars entered
a large dry goods store in New London,
and having chloroformed and bound the
watchman, took s., 900 from the safe and
carried away $4,000 worth of dry goods.
They were traced across the Sound to
Greenport. The Sheriff of New London
found one of the burglars at the railroad
depot and seized him. The ruffian drew a
pistol. The sheriff has but one arm, and
while he was drawing his weapon in self
defence his prisoner took to his heels.-
The Sheriff fired and shot him in the leg.
The ruflian returned the fire, but did not
hit the Sheriff. Both continued to fire as
they ran Many of the villagers joined in
the chase.
While pursuing through a copse, some of
the villagers fell over heap of leaves,
which revealed the form of a man. lie
sprang to his feet, pistol in hand, but
before he could use it was felled to the
ground. On his person were three pistols
and a bowie-knife. Both were lashed to-
gether and taken to the village Jail.
Late in the afternoon the stolen goods
were found in a yacht anchored in the cham
mel Several sets Of burglars tools and
Disgusting apparel We're also ON board. The
burglars were taken back to New London.

C5Y" A remarkable application of the
homeopathic principle of similia similiJuS
curantur is given in Kansas paper. The
hog cholera having made its appearance on
farm, the owner took large SOW that
died of the disease, heaped pine wood and
brush over and around the dead animal
and set fire to it, After the SOW was well
roasted, water was thrown on the flames,
and then all the hogs ON the farm were turn
cd loose to feed on the flesh. The result
was entirely satisfactory. The sick hogs
at once began to recover, no more were af-
fected by the disease, and the herd was
soon in as good condition as ever.

"a The Southern papers very plainly in
innate that they are losing all patience with
jeff. Davis. The Richmond Enquirer says
that Mr. Davis is at perfect liberty to "ac-
cept nothing" and refuse to abide by the
decision of the war; but that the Southern
people do not intend to follow him, but on
the contrary will disown him, and all such
extremists. 1t thinks it too late in the
day to talk about not accepting the situa-
tion; and that the very last man in the
South to avow such sentiments should be
jeff. Davis.

rS- The Pittsburg Leader says "The
Pennsylvania railroad, since the completion
of the Connellsville route, charges but nine
dollars fare for through ticket to Wash
ington city, for which, when it had the
monopoly, it used to charge some fifteen
dollars. With this through ticket the pas
senger gets a sealed packet which he is di-
rected to open at Baltimore. In it he finds
$1.20 in money, and a little card explaining
that, owing to the monopoly on that portion
Of the Through route" controlled by the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad,--i. O., that
between Baltimore and Washington-itw was
impossible to make any arrangement, and
full fare has to be paid which is therefore
inclosed, with the caution, too, that if a
ticket is not bought at the Baltimore de-
pot, the conductor of the train will charge
extra.

GB" The Montgomery, Ala, Mercury,
says "We learn that few weeks since, a
boy by the name of Trollinger, from North
Carolina, was SO severely whipped by Harry
Wysor, near Dublin, Pulaski county, that
he has since died of his injuries. His of
fense was opening letter addressed to his
employer, Wysor, who, ON discovering what
had been done, told the boy that he could
take his choice between arrest and impris-
onment for breaking open his letter or a
whipping from him.
The boy chose the latter, whereupon wy
Tor took him to the woods, stripped him to
tAie shirt, and hit him seven hundred lash
es literally cutting the shirt from his back
in ribbons. Trollinger on being released
started for his home in North Carolina, but
was reported to have died on the way
Wysor has been indicted for tile offence.
