THERE ought to be a grand Centen-
NAL Fourth Of July celebration in every
county in the year 1876. Thousands Of
people cannot go to Philadelphia on that
occasion, but they can have celebration
at home. The celebration at Philadel'
phia will be the grandest National cele-
bration ever held. The celebrations in
the respective counties should be the
grandest ever held in their respective
districts. Thus the people in every
county throughout the United States
would simultaneously be engaged in cele-
brating the one hundredth anniversary of
our National Independence.

FATAL ACCIDENT "A young married
woman named Osbourne, living with her
husband at Carpenters station OH the
Pennsylvania railroad, met with cad
accident on Thursday. which caused her
death in about an hour after the occur
renee. IT appears that Mrs. Osbourne
was engaged in cleaning house on Thurs
day morning. Her husband had placed
a loaded rifle on the bed, and went to an
adjoining room for the purpose of taking
a sleep. Mrs. o. had occasion to remove
the rifle from the bed, and in doing so
the trigger caught in the bed clothing
and forced it back far enough to cause an
explosion of the cap. The contents OF
the barrel entered her left breast, and
she sank to the floor. The report aroused
her husband, who Immediately entered
the room and found his wife lying IN a
pool Of blood, in dying condition. The
alarm was given in the neighborhood,
and surgeon was promptly summoned,
but the victim lived only about an hour.
as stated. Great excitement was occa-
stoned in the neishborhood by the occur
renee, and much sympathy is expressed
for Mr. Osborne in his sad bereavement
in the loss of his young wife. The re-
port that a woman had shot herself gave
rise to the rumor which was current in
the city this morning that case of sui
eide had occurred at Carpenters station.
The funeral took place yesterday morn
ing, and it is said the people in the town
turned out en- masse.-AAoona Tribune,

CHRISTIAN NAMES.

The Baltimore Gazette in comm enting
upon recent Spectator article concerning
Christian names and their unfortunate be-
stowal, says: "American men and women
have had their share of these affections and
their sufferings, and many boy has had
reason to think of bis sponsors in
baptism with no ecstacy of gratitude. Pu-
ritanism and politics have had large share
in perpetuating ugly nomenclature among
US. Tchabod Bartlett and Preserved Fish
are purely Puritan, while some, such as the.
historical Button Gwinnet,' defy analysis.
The touch of the schoolmaster is visible
sometimes, as in 'Cassius Clay and, we
say it reverently, in that oldest of combina-
ton, ulysses Simpson, which, supplement
ed, as it was once said to be, by Hiram is
quite sufficient, aside from other considera-
lions, to account for any want Of filial affec-
ton. Politics showed itself in the Henry
Claws and ANDREW Jacksons,' and abe
Lincolns,' and in Jefferson Davis and it
was once our fate to meet a singularly bad
boy with the euphony of John Quincy
Adams Taggart. This folly is, we think,
passing away, and We Americans aretravel-
ing back to the good old fashion of 'Henrys'
and Edwards and Charles which wear
so well, and of sEmilys,' with the ~ and
Lucys' and, best and most hallOwed Of all,
'Marys.' The Latinized Marias, we trust,
have had their day."

ALAwsUITFOR FORTY.ONE CENTS.

A glaring instance of the abuse of the
purpose for which courts of law are estab-
lished, occurred yesterday. 1t costs the
tax payers about $500 day to run the Cir
cult Court of st. Louis county, and the
suits tried by it are usually Of some impor-
lance to the ht'gants. But when this eour.
is resorted to to enable parties to 'sshow up'
each other, and true is consumed in deter
mining matter Of no consequence, it seems
there should be some method devised for
putting stop to such proceedings.
The following case, which was tried yes
terdsy before Judge Krum, will show how
the ''maiesty OF the law" can be trifed with.
Richard Schuster, stove-molder, worked
day or day and a half at Cages foundry
on "piece work" When he quit his pass
book showed the amount due 4lim was
S3.41. He was paid s., and the Ale. were
withheld. He went to Justice Stremmel to
bring suit against the proprietors for the
41c, and the Squire, rather than be troubled
with so small suit, offered to pay the Ale.
out of his own pocket, but the plucky
molder refused to accept it, saying
it was the "principle" he was contending
for. Mr.. Gage was also plucky, and refused
son principle" to pay The Al cents. The
Justice gave Schuster Judgment for Al
Cents, aud Mr., Gsge took an appeal to the
Circuit Court. Three lawyers appeared,
half dozen witnesses testified, and Judge
Krum gave judgment against Gage for AZ
eents-adding one cent 70 the forty-one for
interest. The regular costs Of the case
amounts to $50, and the three lawyers
charged, probably, not less than $40 piece;
80 that the defendant is out Of pocket about
$40; the plaintiff at least $40, aHd the peo-
pie must pay the Judge, Clerk, Sheriff, etc.,
about 500, merely to enable two stubborn
men to ego to law" about matter Of Al

one on translatiDg, and one on American
