Great Loss hY Fire.

On Sunday morning the 18th inst, the
Cambria Steel Works at job lstowp, were
nearly destroyed by fire. The loss was
supposed TO be over So, 100000. The most
astonishing thing about the whole matter
is the promptuess with which The propri-
etors are resuming work. A dispatch from
there on Friday last says: D ..r nfh fra
"The Cambria Iron Works, mainly de-
stroyed by fire on Sunday, went into ope-
ration again yesterday, and all orders re-
ceived before the fire will be filled without
delay. This unexampled resusitaiion has
been effected through the employees giving
their gratuitous labor in constructing tenn
porary buildings, aided by the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad in furnishing cars in the trans
portation of materials and by engines and
tools suppliedspromptly from the Baldwin
Locomotive Works and Sellers Machine

Death ina Beer Yat,

Nicholas Haas, a boy Is years of age, en-
ployed in Glabs distillery at Dubuque,
went to the top of the vat to stir the con-
tents, lost his fooSing, and fell in. He was
scalded so badly that the skin came off his
whole body. He was taken to his home,
where all that medical skill could do was
done for him without avail. He complain
ed of inward pain, and it is probable that
some of The boiling liquid got down his
throat in his struggles.

and a member of the Republican County
Committee, and John Withlinger, a promi-

fraudulent naturalization papers. Mt. Nc
Melen made strong effort to have the
charge against him Withdrawn, but Mayor
Pyfer declined, stating that justice must
be meted out. There is considerable pub
lie excitement there over this arrest.
A complaint was also made before AL

ng-The expectation that there would be
similar trouble at the Naval Academy
respecting Conyers, the colored midship-
man, which was experienced with Cadet
Smith, the colored youth at West Point,
has not been disappointed. On Friday
night, when the midshipmen were in line,
marching from the lower part Of the grounds
to their new quarters, an attack was made
upon Conyers bysome score of midshipmeu
who kicked aud cuffed him unceIemonious-
ly. A cadet officer rushed in with drawn
sword among the crowd that had gathered
about the unfortunate cadet, and stopped
the attack. Midshipman Conyers could
recognize only one of his assailants. Two
colored attendants who were made guard
to him were beaten at the same iime,

nected with the Shetland wool. Three
hundred years ago man-of-war belonging

capped taught the natives to make brilliant
dyes from roots which they found, resem-
bling those ed for ike purposes in Spain.

GEO the 18th inst, a terrible accident
occurred at Manchester, Iowa, to the young
and only son of A. W. Stevens. The lad,
in company with playmate, encountered
a large boar which had broken from an
enclosure, and attempted to drive the ami
NAL with stick, which so enraged it that
it turned and attacked the boys, one of
whom escaped by jumping into wagon.
The other, young Stevens, was unable to
avoid the infuriated animal, and had his
intestines cut out so that they fell to the
ground. Inflammation and modification set
in, resulting in his death the next evening.
CB-On Wednesday night of last week
an attempt was made to rob the Lacka-
wanna Valley Bank. The CASHIER Mr.
george IL. hlngsbury, lodged i'll rooms
aboYe the bank, and he was visited during
the night by three men, and tied and gag
ged, and badly choked to make him deliver
up the keys. AS he did not have them in
his possession the robbers failed to get
them, and had to leave with their object
unaccomplished.

Singular Railroad accident.

On Tuesday morning between two and
three o'clock, as the Pacific express, west,
was running at a very high rate of speed,
it came in contact with train of empty
coal cars, on the Columbia and Reading
railroad as they were crossing the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, at nandisville. ''
So great was the speed of Che express
train, that when the locomotive struck one
of the long coal cars it cut it entirely in
two, throwing one half Of the shattered car
on each side of the track and allowing the
express train to. pass through without any
other damage than The batteling of the
COW catcher and the front part of the en-
gine. Nobody was hur;.

remarkable account of how it was done.

the evening and afterwards gagged the

Strange Yet True.-A gentleman friend
dropped into our Office on Monday afternoon
and furnished us with the following bit of
information which may prove interesting
to our readers. Incredible as it may seem
it is nevertheless fact, and vouched for by
said friend, whose word is as good as his
bond. Mrs. Wilson Lesley, living in Fair
field, Westmoreland county, few days
since gave birth to three daughters. Be-
tween the births of the first and second
children there elapsed twenty-one hours,
and between the births of the second and
third children there were but fifteen minutes
interviewed. At the present writing the
children are eight days old, are exceedingly
healthy, and together with the mother are
"doing as well as could be expected under
the circumstances" They have been nam
ed Jemima, Kezia, and Karen Kappuck,
all biblical names, and their respective
weights are Al lbs. 4fbs.13oz., and 5ibs. 9oz
Permit us as strangers to congratulate the
parents in their laudable efforts TO follow
the scriptural injunction to increase and
multiply" yet it makes us shudder to con
template how much the lives of the children
have been endangered by being compelled
to carry such outlandish appellations.- =

told his fellow Indians that when he died,
Il they would cut him in pieces, his body

cloud of smoke. An experimental savage

up, departing in disgust ut the fallibility
of science whom the parts lay as they were
