WILL MURDER OUT In the Fall of
1859, the citizens of Indiana purchased Il
horse for Mir. WI Hefiicfinger, an aged
man, to be used by MIN in the drayage btjsi-
ness. The animal was purchased from Il
man named Wiltshire buchanan who was
somewhat rTcak-nindcd, and was Il citizen Of
Rayne township. The purchase money WAS
paid to Buchanan, and he left town for ms
home, hut never reached that place. Short
lg after Buchauan's mysterious disappear
ance, it was announced III some WY that he
had gone west and had died. This story
WAS generally credited at the time, and, III a
few months after, BUchanaU's 8 widow mar
rlcd u IEan Ey the name of andrew Fisher,
Il citizen of Grant township, and has, We b.
HcVe, been living with him up to the present
time. Within the past few weeks a ruIuur
has gained currency that Wiltshire BIchaii-
an did not go west, Int that he had been
murdered and his body serTeted in coal
bank on tie farm of Andrew Fisher. \
week or two ago ueigl,hor of Fislar's, as
the story goes, called upou him, and request
ed to be allowed to open up the OLD "cai ban K
on his premises. His request WIS refused,
and from this and other circumstances Wit q
which we have not beCC ne CoguiZaut. the
belief grew in the minds of several OF his
nei@hbors that the body Of the murdered
man Buchanan had been Secrettd in the coal
bank. Whether this surnisa Is true or not.
it is certainly the fact that Fisher has thus
far positively refused TO allow an iHvestiga-
ton into the matter. Yesterday some twer-
ty-tive citizens of the surrounding country
met near DiNonyille, with the avowcd pur-
pose of probing the truth of the matter tn
the bottom. Weawa!t further developments
before giving currency to many runorS con-
Cerniug the author of the supposed murder.

EDITOR FREES AN-Some interested per
sons, down here, are try to injure Mr. John
Bloch, the present efficient Poor House Di-
rector, and the candidate for that same Of
flee, this fall, on the Democratic ticket
They are circulating sIanderous reports in
regard TO his bills put in for collins, for the
deceased poor ut EbeHsburg. Mr.. Bloch
desires that the truth should he known about
this matter. and hence ne wishes me To state
that he never made and never charged FOR
cotins for the poor at Ehensburg. Those
collins were made by Il Cabinet-maker in
Ebensburg and not by Mr.. Bloch. MI
Bloch does acknowledge that he made eleven
collins for deceased poor in the south of the
county, and used his hearSe aud team in as
sisting to bury them, and for all this he only
received one hundred and twenty-threc dol
lars, or about eleven dollars apiece, for cot
fins, time, trouble and all This does not look
much like dishonesty, nor robbery either.
These reports We're no doubt started by his
opponent, whose head is not always level,
with the design of injuring him. We do not
think that Mr.. Bloch needs any defense, as
he will he elected over his stupid opponent
10y at least nine hundred majority, but We
write the facts just to let the world know
how much money Mr.. Bloch got and what
he gave the poor for it. If every public Off
had as clean n record Mr.. Bloch it
would be good thing for the taxpayers

case assures its readers that large assem-
blage gathered TO witness the proceedings of
the most terrible murder ever committed in
this community, and also that the prisoner
was brought in by the sheriff and his deputy,
handcuffed,-o words to that effect. OF
course the Voice is wrong shipped entirely.
There were no proceedings of the most
terrible murder at the Court House, as
it asserts, nor were the sheriff and his deputy
handCulied.

SAVE YOUR PAPERS.-An exchange tru-
ly says Many people take newspapers, but
few preserve them, yet the most interesting
reading Imaginable is an old file Of uewSpa~
pers. 1t brings up the very age, with all
its hustle and every day affairs, and marks
its genius and its spirit more than the most
Iaborcd description of the historian. Who
can take n paper dated half Il century ago,
without the thought that almost every name
there printed is cut upon the tombstone ~
the head Of an epitaph. 1t is easy to pre-
serve newspapers, and they Will well repay
the trouble. for like that OF wine their value
increases with their years.

THE SENTENCE.

And now, September the 4th, 1872, it is the
sentence OF the Court that you, Michael Moore,
be taken from hence 10 the place wBcEcc you
came within the jail OF the county OF Cambria,
and from tHcnce 10 the place OF execution,
within the walls yard of the said jail OF said
county, and JnaT you there Dc hanged by the
nGCA unllI you are dead.
Immediately after sentence the prisoner
was remanded To jail While the handouts
We're being placed upon him he asked the
Court to hear a further statement, but lac
informed that sentence had now been
passed upon him ami that il was too late.
He muttered incoherently about appearing
before another judge, and then, in company
with the sheriff and his deputy Michael
Moore, the condemned murderer, passed
from the Court room and was conducted to
Jail along the street and under that blessed
sunlight which in all probability he never
more will gaze upon until he is led forth to
expiate his fearful crime upon the scaffoid.
