Brutality to Scholars.

A school teacher in one of the towns
of Oswego county, N. Z, is accused by
the Phoenix Register of great brutality
to his pupils. This fellow has been in
the habit of sharpening his nails to a
point so that he could make them meet
in the ears of the scholars When this
was not sufficient he pulled and twisted
the ears of the children until his bru-
tality was satisfied. The appetite grow
ing with what it fed upon, one day in
an ungovernable rage, he pulled boys
ear until, as he himself acknowledged,
he felt 1T give way The poor boy went
home, soon took to his bed, and in a
few days died, and the physicians who
treated him stated that the death was
the consequence of the injury resulting
from the pulling out of his ear by the
roots

Shipments in Bulk to Europe, via the
MiSSiSSiDDi.

The Missouri Democrat announces
that shipments of corn in bulk to Eu-
rope, Vda the great water route, are
now progressing satisfactorily. Since
the 18th ult. over ere hundred thou
sand bushels of corn have been taken
by the barge, i'll bulk line for England
and France Ui0 New Orleans. This
corn is going forward on a contract
freight of ten cents per bushel, which
is slightly tough for the barge line peo-
pie, as just now they could get thirty
five to forty cents per one hundred
pounds for carrying miscellaneous
frelghts down the river, and this corn
pays but about eighteen cents per
hundred But contracts are contracts.
oven though not made in writing, and
the barge line are not the party to
break them. After all, though
the obligation to carry bulk corn
at ten cents per bushel seems not
to their advantage, it MAJ, in the long
run, turn out to be the best thing they
could do, as by moving the corn out of
store here they make room for more to
come, thus providing plenty of loading
for the barges when the rush of miscel-
laneous freight shall have ended, which
will be the case inside of thirty days.
But ii must not be supposed that the
Barge Line Company are taking no
miscellaneous freights. Only part of
their room is given to bulk grain
probably less than one-third-the bal
ance of the capacity of each tow is
taxed to its utmost with -four, provi-
slons, liquors, hay, bagged grain, corn
meal and general merchandise There
is an immense rush of freight going
southwark from st. Louis. For want
of laborers to put it rapidly aboard of
the boats, it accumulates in vast heaps
on the levee.

Joseph Ma2zini in His Last Days.

"The London Daily News closes Its
obituary notice of Mazz1ni as follows:
In his personal appearance Signor
Mazzini was by no means the kind of
man in whom q stranger would suspect
the conspirator who would plunge a ma
ton into disorder, or the dreaded revol-
utionist whose name was a terror to
European Governments. In his early
days he was one whom a passer-by who
met him in the street would have turn
ed to look at. With lofty but some
what marrow forehead, widening toward
the top, with dark hair, and dark deep
set eyes, with countenance 'sicklied
DER with the pale cast of thought, he
had the appearance of some quiet stu
dent who was meditating on great sub
jects. In his latter years, though
there was in him a certain eagerness
and restlessness, and though his long
habit of secrecy led him to adopt a
feigned name, he looked still less like a
man who had been more than once con-
demned to death for 'treasons, STRATA
gems, and spoils His eye had not
lost its lustre, but his face had become
sunken, and his frame somewhat enfee-
hled. He was kind, cordial, and COM
municative, and there was some i'm
pressment in his manner He talked
rapidly, and, though in perfectly gram
matical English, it was with foreign
accent. He received his visitors in
small sitting room which looked out in
to the Brompton Road; the room was
filled with books and papers, though
it had none of the aspect of study of
a recluse. He smoked his cigar as he
talked and his conversation was about
his work, and never about himself
His friends treated him with a defer
ence which would spoil most men, but
which had no injurious effect on him.

Death at the Wedding---Husband and
Wife Separated almost at the Altar.
From the Detroit Free Press

About three weeks ago, after an ac-
quaintance of several years, a young
lady named Ishor, living with relatives
on Michigan Ave, was married in this
city to young man named Taylor, of
Indianapolis. The ceremony was
hardly over when Taylor received a
telegram from Lynn, Mass, that
his aged mother was dying, an
in an hour he left the city cal
culating to return within ten days at
the frrthest. He wrote no letter back,
and Monday his bride received news
that mother and son were both dead
He was exposed to the smallpox some
where on the route, tooK a severe cold,
and died the day before his mother
died. The wife tainted on reading the
sad news, and up to last evening had
not regained her consciousness, the at
tending physician believing that she
will be rendered a maniac by the blow.

How MIR. Seward Drew q Revolver on
'N00mbS

Not long ago a gentleman was telling
me senatorial anecdote of and dating
back to the dnte-bGtLahn2 days Mr.
Seward had made speech-something
about the telegraph-when Mr.. Toombs,
OF Georgia, rose to reply, and made
speech full Of personal abuse of Mr.
Seward. He wrought himself up into
a rage and lashed about in the most
aggressive manner. He finished, and
took his seat. AS Mr.. Seward rose
from his chair, every eye was bent upon
him with the greatest anxiety. With
calm measured steps he walked
towards Mr.. Toombs. It was
noticed that his right hand was
underneath the rear pocket of his
coat. There was apprehension that
he was concealing a pistol, and MIR.
Toombs' friends crowded around him.
When Mr.. Seward reached him
he drew out his hand, and, opening his
snuff box, politely invited his adver-
sary to take pinch of snuff. "My
God! !" said Mr.. Toombs, 'Mr. Seward,
have you no feelings?" ""Take pinch
of snuff, which will sooth your
agitation. He then returned to his
seat, and, without any allusion to Mr..
Ioombs or his speech, made an able
argument in favor of his measure, which
he carried, as GOODNESS and self-posses-
:lon always will win the victory over
hot temper and passionate invectlve.-

$4,000

We do not say that these payments
influenced Mr.. Trumbull's vote against
the impeachment of Johnson, on case
so clear that only one vote was lacking
of the requisite two-t thirds. We do say
however, that the whole transaction has
a very bad look in more ways than one
Evidently Mr.. Trumbull has broken
down in his rOte of model reformer.

SENATOR TRUMBULL.
The Ten Thousand Dollar Fee.


The TACT that Senator Trumbull Sc
cretly received $4,000 for his services
IN the Mc-Ardle Military Commits
SION case, has greatly surprised every
body. Of the seven Republican Sena-
tors who voted against the impeach-
ment of johnson, no one was more
universally acquitted of any corrupt
motive than Mr.. Trumbull. But here
is the fact of his receiving the enor-
moas fee of SO, 900, while daily occu-
pying his seat as a Senator of the
the United States, and at the very time
the impeachment trial was pending.
For all that he did before the Supreme
Court IN the McArdle case, $1,000
would have been ample compensation
for mere professional service. We
pass over the question of the proprie.
ty-not to say legality-of his receiv-
ing fees at all for such service. His
arrangements before the Court are
known to have been unsuccessful.
This the subsequent decision in the
decision in the kindred Milligan case
proves. If he rendered any important
service in the McArdle matter at all, it
was IN procuring the passage of an act
denying the Supreme Court jurisdic-
tion. This measure he engineered to
advantage, being Chairman of the
Judiciary Committee. Was he COM
peasated for this service, so obnoxious
to the Democratic mind.
In this connection we only care, at
present, to recite the following plain
facts: The House voted an impeach-
ment of President Johnson on the 24th
of February, 1868. Early in March,
the case came to trial in the Senate. It
was pending before that body until the
decisive vote on the 10Th of May. Now
note the dates, as shown by the record,
at which Mr.. Irumbull received the
three payments, going to make mp the
handsome sum of $4,000. They are
as follows:

Answer-Because buy my
goods at the grees. brick front, the

Ques--IIow do you make that
appear, WHEN all merchants say
they sell the cheapest2
Ansxer-For the reason that
they sell for cash or batter, which
enables them to buy for cash at
the best jobbing houses in New
York AID Boston.
Ques--Have you any other
reason for speaking so favorably OF

Answer-Yes, they buy many
of their goods by the case; by
watching their chances they are
enabled eften to buy at sacrifice.
Boots and Shoes they buy invaria'
bly, from the manufacturers great
many of them made expressly to

Ques--Are they strictly honest
and upright in ell their dealings?
