A CHICAGO, ILL.,, despatch of the 22nd
inst, says A horrible case of prenedi'
tated murder and suicide occurred at
Waseca, Mimi. on Monday last. 1t ap-
pears that two Germans, Alexander Bu-
sen. and John Ruff, tho former married
the latter unmarried, owned and worked
a farm together, and that finally Busen
was driven away and Ruff took possession
Of the farm and Busen's family. Re-
Gently. the Grand Jury found an indict-
ment against Ruff and Busen's wife for
adultery, which greatly alarmed them.
On Tuesday morning last the aeighbors,
in going to Busen's house, found it shut
up, and on breaking in discovered Mrs.
Busen and her youngest child lying on
the bed bathed in. blood. their. taroats
cut from ear, to ear. On the floor beside
the bed lay the lifeless body Of Ruff
with his throat cut. From letters left by
both the man and the woman it is evident
that they agreed upon this tragic method
of escaping from the clutches Of the law.

in comparison with the Philadelphia OF
1876 will of itself be sufficient induce
ment to every man and woman, young
and old, in this State of ours and through
out our country to attend the Celcbra-
ton. We will be enabled to realize how
we have proposed and are still prosper
ing. and that we win continue to prosper
Notwithstanding such imputations upon
our fair fame as the Credit Mobili er and
similar weaknesses. If God spares
my life and health. it will be my pleas.
ure to be here, and in the meantime to
help forward, with all my trength,
a movement that is destined to sur.
prise the world, and to show what a
giant our nation has become, and to what
greater proportion our country is suscep
tible of expanding. Since that day in
l776, when we proclaimed our indepcn-
dence of the mother country, we have
not only climbed the Alleghen:es and
reached the lakes, but we have crossed
tie Mississippi and traversed the previ-
ously unknown region between the Rocky
Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. From
the limits of a colony on the Atlantic
shore, we have peop,ed a continent and
in 1876 l hope to be ono of an audience
assembled in this goodly city to hear an
estimate of our anticipated greatness at
the close of another century.

Every one: Who can get away from the

But little aid has hitherto reached the
city. It needs further help in its

stocks and bonds, panics and failures
should not be allowed entirely to stiAe

Even slight assistance would be vel.

proper that We should cay few words
pertinent to the possibility OF undue ex.
citement. The nature OF panic is op.
posed to reason. Men act wildly and
rashly.and neither consider rightly their
own interests nor those Of the commu-
nifty. No bank can stand run upon it
BY its deposjtors under tie impulse of
suoh madness:3 DspoAtsare loaned ont,
and, if Immediately demanded by the
depositors. they cannot be paid. Every
man who knows anything Of banking
knows this. The banks keep enough
currency for daily wants. but never have
enough to pay all their depositors; and
though their bills receivable and thsir
oollaterals may be avo or ten times the
amount of their deposits. they cannos
nay them when suddenly demanded.
The consequence of forcing national
bank to suspend is fatal. It at once
goes into the. hands Of Tho receiver. and
u.s.. wound up;;s sahda sits assets divided
amongst .dsposttSfS aud stockholders.
This proc9ass requires months, during
which the community loses the capital
locked up ins the concern. Such conse-
quenoes would be ruinous to business
and places community under great en-
barrassment. Therefore, we should
avoid panic ras We would plague. In.
deed; there is not the slightest occasion
for one. The banks Of this city are
we'll managed and have the confidence
OF the community. They are not oom-
piicated in tho slightest degree with the
institutions of any embarrassed com.
mnhity, They have confined themselves
to, the Legitimate mercantile and manu-
faotusips business of tile State, and are,
thetsfore. in that condition of order and
solvenoy which, even in New York, has
been, sheltered from the storm. They
are as aound and solid as any banks in
She Union, and can go on serving the
community and promoting the general
welfare as long as healthy state of pub
lie feeling prevails; but they can no
more than the best Institutions else
where resist the unreasonable demands
Of an excited people.
Now let us hope that whatever other
cities may do, the people Of Columbia
will maintain. at this time. their high
character for sslf-oontrol and wise re-
gard for their own interests. An hour
Of folly may leave them months OF re:
pentance. Our city is steadily improv-
ing. and we are III the midst of pros.
porous fall trade. To retard the gene
raj improvement and put check upon
our growing trade now. by impairing
the public credit and orippling our bank
ing capital, would exhibit to the world
one Of The most sad cases of public
folly that ever happened.

State, but is against its settled. policy
and the highest interest of both city and
State. The object The General Assem-
bly, had in view when the sale Of the
canal at II nominal price was made to the
assignors of the plaintiffs, was tho devc.
lopment of this gigantic power and the
consequent influx of capital and people;
III brief, to compete successfully with
onr sister cities Of tho North and West
III the race Of wealth and population.
10 do this, great rs our resources are.
they must DO husbanded, not squar-
dered.
Much stress was laid in the argument
upon the failure Of the plaintiffs 10
furnish tho filter required by the cou-
tract. Tho evidence shows conclusivcly
that the first patent filter provided
broke down under experiment, and was
wholly inadequate for the publication
OF river water. According to the ngree
ment, the suction pipe and filter are re.
quired in a certain contingency-th the

tlaintitfs having purchased in good
faith the filter first tried, finding it in.
adequate. and within reasonable time
substituting another that is adequate, is
substantial compliance with that por.
tion Of thei. contract.
Much testimony was offered by the
defendant, tending to show the INSULT
ciencs OF the supports, props, gearing,
&c., of the new works. 1t is not con
sidered necessary to examine these
questions in detail. The plaintiffs have
constructed their works. and arc com

the contingency of failure in this re-
gard, they agreed to insert penalty for
such failure, to bo paid to tho defend
ant. provided that the plaintiffs should
not, within thrco months after such
failure, "be IN readiness to comply with
the terms OF the contract. A fair and
reasonable construction of the ngreo.
ment points this stipulation to the con-
tract to supply the city with water, and
imports an extension of the time of two
years, within which extension, if the
pnlntiHs should be in readiness to
comply with their contract, there should
then exist no right III the defendant to
exact the penalty, much less righ. to
disnflirm the contract.
The second ground of denial of the
plaintiffs right to the enjoyment Of the
contract to supply the city with water,
proceeds upon the allegation of m en-.
tire failure on the part Of plaintiffs to
perform their contract rs to the con
struction Of the additional works. De.
fendant denies that tho new Water
Works were fully completed Ill finished
in the month of November, 1872; denies
that the parties of the second part were
ready to enter upon the performance Of
that part of the contract whereby they
were required to furnish the supply Of
water; denies that on the 21st Novem-
Der, the parties OF the second part were
prepared to supply the city with water.
according to the terms Of said contract.
On the contrary, def ndant AYERS that
the said parties Of the second part were
not then, have not been since, and are
not now ready to furnish the city it's
supply OF water uuder the terms Of the
said contract.-Ans,oer, Folio G.
From the language OF this denial,
md from what follows in immediate
competition in the answer, it resolves
itself into three heads. to wit: /. A
denial that the works we're constructed.
2. A denial of their suficienoy, 8. A
denial of the plaintiffs right to use the

A GOOSE QUESTION.

A pious old negro woman was once
caught by her master stealing goose,
and next Sunday she partook of the
communion, after which her master ac-
cused her as follows:
"Why, Hanna, I saw you to-day at
the communion table !"
"Yes, tank de Lord, massa, I was
lowed to be dhere wild de rest of His
family"
But Hanna, I was surprised, to see
you there !" he said. "But how abou:
the goose?"
She loked up surprised, and As if she
didn't comprehend the cause Of his
wonder, but soon catching the meaning,
exclaimed:
"Why, sar, do you think Use goin'
to let an old goose stand between me
and my Maker?'

WHAT A YOUNG LADY DID.

WHAT A YOUNG LADY DID.
The Delaware county (Pa.) Amert-
can gives the following account of a
young lady's success in poultry raising
"In Concord, farmers daughter,
during the past year, had the care of
his poultry yard. In the spring she
commenced with about sixty fowls Of
the common breeds, including one
Dominique rooster and several hens of
that stock. She also had two ROSTERS
Of the Partridge Cochin breed. From
these she raised $50 chickens. When
young she fed on cracked corn, but
when fattening them gave whole corn
and Indian meal: During the season
she sold eggs to the amonnt Of $50, and
from September Goth to January 18th
she got ready for the market $50 pairs
Of chickens, which she sold for $3.50.
She thinks the Dominique much the
best for market, but they are not har-
dy when young. She has some hens Of
the Partridge Cochin breed which
weigh 6, 7, and s pounds each. 1t
will be seen from this statement what
may be done by proper attention to
poultry, the profits being perhaps larger
than any branch of farming. 1t also
shows that the business is one which
females may engage with success. The
time occupied in caring for sixty to a
hundred hens doesn't average more
than an hour or two day. The ex-
ercise is light and pleasant, and the
change from household duties rather
agreeable than otherwise. Indeed, we
consider the poultry business, as an oc-
cupation, both profitable aud interest,"
ing. Gathering eggs, setting the hens,
watching the Matching and tending the
young, has charm which, in connec-
tion with the profit, is calculated to
please every lover of natures great
working world"
