worked complete revolution in the general treat

the faculty would not believe in it. "Whatr they
exclaimed, "cure liver complaint without mercury,

obstinate incredulty must yield in the end to prac

ing of paper for the concern to his own person
al profit; I'd, That DIR. Carlton knew this; Sd,
That Porter was an unfit person to hold the po-
sition; 4th, That Goodenough lied when he said

er; It'll and Sth, that Hoffman disposed of the
leather and kept money belonging to the con-
Germ: 9th, that the Superintendent of the bin
derry was wrongfully allowed the gold sweep
ings; 10th, that Hoffman was dishonest in pay
ing wages; 18th, 18th, 18th and 14th, that the
management of Hoffman was loose and ex-
travagant and that the bndery inventories and
account books contain false entries 18TH that
the amount of the profits reported in the exhib-
its to the annual conferences as added to to the
capital stock of the concern were incorrect;
10th, that from 1868 to 1868, inclusive, while

it. In conclusion. DR.. Lanahan asks that spe-

SINGULAR DEATH.-The Swiss Times records
"a singular death at Oldenburg. The wife of
respected citizen, who was ENJOYING perfect
health, went down into the cellar for some
wood. On opening the door cat sprang past
her, and directly after she uttered a piercing
shrek. The servants hurried to her assistance,
and found her stretched upon the ground in
commissions. The poor woman kept pressing
her left leg, and on searching for the cause they
found large rat, which had bitten her severe
ly on the left knee. The furious animal had,
it seems, been pursued by the cat, and taken
refuge under her clothes After tier Lingering

THE LOWRY GANG.-Additional particulars
regarding the wanton murder of Col Wischart
by the swamp angel outlaws are received. A
more brutal massacre of human being has
scarcely ever been perpetrated by fiends in hui
man shape. The Wischart family is one of the
oldest and most respected in the county, the
parents of the deceased now living there and
none are more esteemed and respected. Col.
Wischart had made several attempts to cap
ture the outlaws and he was feared by them
more than any other man in the county. He
was also engaged in writing a history of the
lives and deeds of the outlaws, from which
correspondent made copious notes some months
since, when in that section. Nothing has been
heard of the outlaws Stephen Lowery and An
drew Strong since they committed this foul
deed. A singular report which brings Henry
Berry Lowery, the outlaw chief, back again
from the grave has reached my ears. A per-
son residing in the dominions of the outlaws,
who has been intimate with the whole band,
asserts that he met Henry Berry Lowery, who
has been reported dead for months, on Friday,
the day succeeding the murder, face to face and
that there was no mistaking him. This state
ment is gently discredited and people of this en-
tire section of the county have the most implic-
it faith in the demise of the Rob Roy of Caro-

How THEY VOTED AT CNcINNATI-The
correspondent of the Transcript tells in the fol-
lowing paragraph how the votes in the "Re-
form" Convention at Cincinnati were in some
cases cast:
"The representatives of several States in this
Convention have been purely bogus. George
Alfred Townsend, correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune, has thrown the whole vote of Della
ware on every ballot He is not resident of
Delaware. He is Bohemian-a citizen of the
wcrld. He had seat at the reporters table.
In the call for States the clerk looked down to
his seat and exclaimed, Delawarer Mr.. Town
send arose and said, Delaware, six votes for
such candidate, changing the vote in nearly
every ballot Sometimes he was absent and
when Delaware was called one of his associate
reporters would exclaim, Delaware has step
ped out or Delaware has gone to get drink
On the final vote, when several States were
changing for Greeley, Benz Perley Poor, who
was sitting near, said to Townsend, Greeley is
going to be nominated; you had better be on
the winning side, and change your vote Mr..
Townsend arose, addressed the President, and
said, Delaware gives her six votes for Horace
Greeley, and it was SO recorded. Mr. Edward
Harris of WOonsocket, the co-laborer of Mr.
Atkinson in the free-trade movement, was the
only delegate from Rhode Island, and gave it's

EIGHTEEN months ago Louis Ma
polcon was the most potent ruler in
Europe. His word was the law
His voice has made nations quake.
Hundreds of thousands OF armed men
marched and counter-marchcd at
his command. Now no is refugee
in a foreign land, none so poor
as to do him reverence. Three
months ago Tweed, the lammany
ruler, was all.powcrfui in New York
swaying the destinies and debating
the policy Of the great Democratic
party Of the country-now he is
shorn of power and influence
Grant the Radical President, might
profit by these examples. lie is a
far more fit sdbject for fortunes
freaks than either Napoleon Or
Tweed. His elevation to the Presi-
dency was one of her strangest
freaks TO pitch him again into a
lanyard, or a gutter from whence
he sprang, would delight a large ma
.jority Of the people.

Do Nor FRET. John Wesley said,
II dare no more fret, than to curse
and swear This is high attain
mcnt in faith and in grace. If it
were as general as Wesley's hymns
are in their cffusion, the piety Of the
Christian would be amazingly adj
yanccd. Dare not fret? Why,
there are scores Of ladies who dare
do nothing else on rainy days, and
scores ofmcn who are fretful and
foolish when things do not move as
they want them to go, and yet both
these men and women are members
of the church, making loud profess
ions in faith of Christ, eminent for
zeaIon public occasions, and esteem
ed to be all but saints already, 10y

but who don't know them at all
