NEW YORK, Nov. AT twelve o'clock
to day the United States Grand Jury found
indictments against Victoria Woodruff
and Tenne c. Clailin who were arrested
on Saturday charged with mailing Jude
cent printed matter.
The prisoners were taken from Ludlow
street Jail at one o'clock, and brought be-
fore Commissioner Osborne, who said the
indictments relieved him Of the necessity
Of holding an examination.
The accused were yisihly affected on
hearing of the indictmenls-Nrs Wool
hull almost to tears. Miss Clsiiin looked
eomewhat defiant. Counsel for the pris-
oners complained of the conduct of the
Government in pressing an indictment
pending the examination, as a most arbi-
trary proceeding.
The accused came prepared for the
fullest examination. The COMMISSIONS
ordered warrants, following the indiei
ments, to be served upon the accused, ant
they were removed to Jail in default o

AS a yonng pan named Burson was coming

drawn by two yoke of cattle, on last Wednes-

broke down, letting the team and wagon fall q
distance Of nearly thirty fcet into the creek.
The wagon was badly broken. One of the oxen,
killed, another was hurt so that it can hardly
recover, and the remaining two considerably
injured. The young man jumped of no soon
he heard the bridge crack, and escaped unin-

THE BADGE RULE.

FUVIE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS UNPOP-
n ular rule at the late Agricultural Fair.
although source Of gyeat annoyance to visit
ors and Of yexation to Marshals, was not en-
lircly barren Of good results, especially to the
people of this vicinity who are sagacious
enough to profit by the facts developed. IL
seems that in ejecting parties violating the
rule, the Marshals found great difficulty in
some cases by reason of the clothing Of the
offenders giving way, while others more roughly
handled removed from the ground with
out the least injury to their clothing. I bis
mystery was solved by the Marshals when
they found on investigation, that the clothing
which stood firm under the sturdy grip Of tho
officers was purchased with the exception of
one velvet suitat thc.store of Murphy b Croas

The --latest Triumph of Temperance.

The Latest Triumph OF fehPS rance
We congratulate the Temperance word on the
success which seems everywhere attending
the use of Vinegar Bitters. 1t establishes the
fact, long contended for by Temperance ply
sicians. that nothing which intoNicates is ever
beneficial to the sick Certainly no prcpara-
ton containing alcohol has ever aeeoippli shed
such cures Of malarious fever, hiliousness. dys.
pcpsia, rheumatism, lung complaint constpa.
tion, aud general debility, we hear OF from
all quarters as the result Of this famous yege
table specific No true philanthropist will re
gret to see spirtuous liquors expelled from
medicine, if they can be safety dispensed with
and that they are not beneficial in any case Of
sickness, whatever it's character, appears To
have been demonstrated Mt last. If public
opinion is capable of making any impression
upon the minds of the Faculty, they will ere
long introduce the most popular of modern
medicines into the hospitals, and prescribe 1t
in their practice. The millions have given the
article fair trial it has more than answered
their expectations and no theoretical opposition
can shake their faith in it.
