Terrible Storm.

A despatch from Lincoln Nebraska, dated
April %, gives the following account of
recent dreadful storm.
ga train on the Burlington and Mis-
souri railroad came in yesterday, being the
first for week. The reports of the late
storm show it to have been one of the Sc
verest ever known. Men were frozen to
death within two rods of their houses while
trying to get to their stock. Near Alton a
man named Keeer attempted to reach his
neighbors half mile away with his wife
and child, and the two latter were frozen
to death. MIR. Marshall, near Hastings,
pelished while trying to reach his stock
from the house. The wife and child of Mr..
Bent, near Red Cloud, were frozen while
attempting to reach neighbours house,
their own being rendered useless. Their
bodies were found on Friday ten rods from
the house. Families were compelled to
take refuge in cellars or keep in their beds
for three days. The destruction of horses
is great, some losing all they had. One
party lost his whole herd of seventy-five.
The gulleys of railroads were filled with
snow as hard as iceS The snow plows were
useless.

Starved to peath by His Parents.

The Providence Press of the 18th inst,
says: A story is current in town of
child having been starved to death by it's
parents at their residence in the northern
part of the city. The circumstances as
they have been related to us are as fol-
lows: A woman died in neighboring
state some months since leaving some
property in her own right, which she willed
to her son, boy nine or ten years of age.
In course of time the man married again
and removed to this city. For several
months past, this boy, about eleven years
of age at the time of his death, was observ-
ed to visit the swill pals Of the neighbors
and gather therefrom such scraps Of food
as he could find and eagerly devour them
In reply to questions az to why he did so,
he would say he was hungry, and being
further questioned, said he was fed only on
the leaviugs of his fathers table,
A few days since he was found by a
neighbor on the garret of the house where
he resided in state of starvation, and
died in few days, begging with his last
breath for something to eat.". This is
the story as it comes to us, and we have
little doubt of its truthfulness.

usuRY LAWS.

At the late session of the Legislature of
Georgia, all laws in relation to usury were
wiped from the statute books of that State
and contemporary says that "there is al
ready an evident increase in the supply of
money, and reduction in the rate of inter
est. Several large sums which had been
intended for investment in the Western
States were received in Savannah, a new
banking company has been already organ
lied, and preliminary measures taken for
the formation of another. Business men
no longer meet the all but insurmountable
obstacles heretofore encountered in obtain
ing money, and altogether there is evidence
of increased means and industrial activity
that warrant the most favorable apticipa-
tions for the future.

ers, ana there was much plundering. Du-
ring the conflicts which took place, twelve

Madrid, April 22.-Some of the adhe-
rents of Don Carlos, yesterday made an at
tack on the Alcalde of Figueras, in the
province of Corona. A number Of the peo-
pie Of the town armed themselves and raj
lied to the support Of the authorities in
driving off the insurgents.

The Indian Treachery.

The murders of General Candy and the
peace commissioners aroused general in
dignation. But the Indians are not so much
to blame when we look back at the time
when eighteen members of this same tribe
were treacherously murdered by U. 5. Of
ficers.
In 1852 Northern California was dis
turbed by Indian troubles. The same year
a company under the command of Captain
Benjamin Wright organized and proceeded
from Yreka to the Indian country, around
Tule lake and the lava-beds and fought
three unsuccessful battles. Their force
being insufficient for the subection of the
Modoc they returned to Yreka and organ
lied strong force, and then marched
again to the Modoc country. Winter ap-
preaching found the Modocs' supply of
blankets, ammunition and food extremely
limited, consequently the Modocs were
anxious for a cessation of hostiities. Capt.
Wright received the Modocs' overtures
with great cordiality.
A peace conference was agreed upon and
a place was appointed in the immediate
vicinity of the massacre of Gen. Candy.
The. conference met, about twenty-five
Indians and thirty white men. While
discussing terms, Wright gave his men the
signal, and in moment they killed
eighteen Modocs. Seven Modocs escaped.
Thus perished the fathers of the present
tribes. Captain Jack was then nine years
old, John Schonchin nineteen, Boston
Charley and Hooker Jim two years. 1t is
probable that revenge grew with age, cul-
minating in the Canby-Thomas massacre.
Some years afterwards Wright was made
Indian agent at Rouge river. Wright
was apprehensive of Modoc vengeance.
One night Modoc chief named Enos muir
dered and horribly mutilated Wright's
body. Enos was afterwards captured and
hanged. lie died exulting that he had
wrealled vengeance on the leader of the
massacre of his murdered tribe.

Report of the Central NO-Litense Commit.

The above Committee make the following
report to those citizens of Perry County, for
whom they were appointed to act by the Bloom
field Convention
The result of the election IL is now unneces-
sary to state. The Committee only desire to
say concerning it, that they performed their
duties with proper economy. The pamphlet
prepared and published by the Newport Sub
Committee will be mainly paid for at Newport.
The only other expenses were carriage hire to
one of the meetings, printing tickets and post
age of same and of circular, and publishing of
this report. A surplus over all the expenses is
still held by the Committee, and If not other
wise ordered at meeting of delegates In May,
IL will be applied to any Court expenses for
necessary prosecutions, If such should arise, as
may be necessary even before the May Court,
and that not with reference to houses licensed
at May Court of last year. For this purpose,
the Central Committee will still act and work
and expects the township and borough COM
mttees to act and work until the general meet
ing during the May Court, communicating
when necessary, with the Central Committee.
If for no other purpose, such information will
enable the Central Committee to know where
constables do not report according to law. The
Committee have legal advice for saying that
by the law there Is no need of notice of stop
page TO be given to sellers, other than the usual
notice of other laws, viz: publication which
has been already given and on Infringement of
law, an Indictment against Hotels or hestau-
rants selling anything which intoxicates, in vio-
lation of law, or druggists deviatlng from
the strict letter of the law regulating their
special licenses.
Each township and borough committee Is re-
auested to'see to the enforcement of the law in
its own locality, and 1t is requested Of all good
citizens that without fear or favor, they will
lend their aid to the enforcement of what is
now the law of the county. Any township or
borough suffering from the continued violation
of the law, has only itself to blame, for with
proper effort, the law can be easily vindicated,
and the fines and penalties of Imprisonment,
provided for by the State law Con which the
offender is thrown) are sufficient TO carry out
this law, If acted upon For devising the ne
cessary means for the continued enforcement
| of the law, the subcommittee of each town.
ship will report in person, on TUESDAY, OF
| May Court, to the Chairman of the Central
Committee, who will inform them of the place
of meeting on the evening of that day, and any
| absent, will send reliable substitutes witt
written credentials. AS we'll said in the call Of
the Cumberland County Committee for like
work, Sour friends in defeated counties lool
for our aid In their own future efforts, by oul
showing the good results of the law well en-
forced.'
Is 81 CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

Lively Scene I'm Court.

Last week, sheriff Edminster, of Broome
county, New York, was brought before
Judge Crosby as defendant in an action to
recover from the sheriff the amount of a
Judgment for which one Thomas Hammond
was incarcerated on body execution, as it
was claimed that Hammond, who was out
OH limits went further than he had a
right to go. The sheriff was defended by
Hon. B. r. johnson and W. j. Ludden,
and the prosecution was conducted by B. s..
Curran, Esq. Mr.. Ludden came in court
few minutes late, and took no part until
the sheriff himself took the stand, when
the judge objected to having him (Ludden)
examine the witness. Mr.. Ludden, how
ever, insisted upon going on with the case,
and for that fine was imposed upon him,
and the sheriff was ordered to leave the
witness stand and conduct his own attorney
to jail. The sheriff, however, refused to
obey the mandate, but the judge took nc
cognizance of anything further Mr.. Ludden
did, and would not Eote the testimony ol
the witnesses he examined. The judge
likewise threatened to send the other at
torneys, Mr.. johnson and Mr.. Curran, tc
to Jail for interrupting him while he charg
ed the jury.
The result was disagreement of the
jury.

The Congressional Steal.

General Farnsworth of Illinois, has re-
fused his back pay, and in letter making
known this course he presents some inter-
esting facts connected with the passage Of
the bill increasing salaries. General Farms
worth declares the plea that larger salaries
are necessary to enable President and
members of Congress to live respectfully in
Washington is not true. No other Pres
ident has "asked for more" Mr.. Lincoln
saved half his salary, and that, too when
gold was 200 and over. And yet the al
lowances, incidentals, 2" and "contingen-
cies' for Mr.. Lincoln were far less liberal
than for the present occupant of the White
House. Some of the items voted for Lin
coin in 1864, and Grant in 1873 are worth
consideration. For Private Secretary,
Steward and Messenger, Lincoln was al
lowed 1900. For the same officers, and
two additional ones, Grant is allowed $13,-
800. For contingent expenses Lincoln was
given 81, 900. This item is increased to So
900 for Grant Fuel cost Lincoln So, 400 ;
Grant has $1,000 for that purpose. For
repairs of house, for furniture, for improv-
ing grounds, purchase Of plants and all con-
tingencies, Congress voted Lincoln $4,000.
This item is raised to $4,000 for Grant.
The same measure of advance is put upon
all the items of expense in favor of Gen
eral Grant and yet there is nothing in the
circumstances of the case to warrant such a
course. Articles have not advanced beyond
the price of 1864. In truth many of them
have fallen by heavy per cent. What,
then, is the justification for increasing al
the expenses of the government for the Elk
ecutive and Legislative Department
General Farnsworth thinks there is none
And the people agree with him.

gg- The Philadelphia papers tell a story
of a man by the name of Captain s. H.
Mills, who was supposed to have been
drowned at Lewes, Delaware, and sent in a
closed coffin through Philadelphia by ex-
press to New York, being about thirty-iyO
hours IN trGnsitu. On arriving at the New
York express Office, owing to an irregular
ity in the papers by which the supposed
corpse was permitted to go by express, the
bog was opened at Green Point Ferry,
New York, by direction of the Health
Officer. The "body" was found to be a
living man, and medical aid was summoned.
