BIRTHS.
DIE D..

AT the residence of her father,
Henry Hay mes, in Eagle township,
Vinton county, o., October l3, 1873,
of consumption, Mary d., wife OF JON
athan. Brine, jr, aged 2S years, 4
months and "a days.
The destroy er had fastened its fanga
on her vitals, and she fingered Tor
some time, struggling between life
death. Stimulated by alast ray OF
hope, she sought in the home of her
parents an asylum to recover her
health. The partner of her joys and
sorrows who had accompanied her re-
turned to their residence in Macarthur;
to procure some preserved fruit and
other needed articles. But before hC
returned again, she was already in the
embrace OF the grim monster. She
was a member OF the Macarthur Chris:
tian Church, and her spirit departed
with the iull hope of blessed I'M
mortality.

charge OF an assault upon his
wife with intent to murder. He
was tried before Esq. A. N 20
zad, and In default OF bail was
committed 10 jail to await the
action Of the Grand Jury. 1t
appears from what we can
learn that his wife thought she
had cause TOR Jealousy, re
preached him with uniaith'ul-
ness, whereupon he became
enraged, knocked her down
with a chair, kicked her about
the person, inficling danger

The JuIlgeSIip.


Major CherringlOn's defeat
was accomplished by fraud on
the part Of certain Republican
managers in Pike county, who
caused the tickets TO be print
ed with the matter Of Judge
ship entirely omitted from the
ticket. The principals in the
fraud, we understand from
those who should know, were
old Welmore, Wells s. Jones,
and George d. Cole. Let them
speak out in meelin' and let US
know whether they are guilty
or not guilty. There are good
many folks in this district who
would like to know you know.
By onitllng the Office alto
gether they succeeded in de-
ceiving the voters OF the coun-
ty go effectually that The mat
ter was not discovered except
in one township until alter The
polls were closed. In tha,
township the people corrected
the fraud by writing Cheering
tons name on the tickets, but
] The discovery was not made
until many IF The blank tickets
had been cast. The people OF
! the county on discovering the
swindle were justly indignant,
and to excuse their rascality
they are now representing Ma
jor CherringtOn as a one-horse
lawyer, unfit for the position,
and DuHadway as the best
lawyer and most accomplished
gentleman In the universe. We
hope the people will some day
have the pleasure of Major
Cherrington's acquaintance so
they may see what lying ras-
calls the men are who swindled
them. Judge DuHadway's ac
quaintanoe they will have
plenty of time and opportunity
10 cultivate.

A Lesson of the Panic.


A short time since our good
friend prestley HIT had som 9
surplus funds which he had &C
cumulated by selling grapes
which he had cultivated on the
shares in Mr.. DAVIS viney ard.
Sundry persons had been quiz
ing him thus: Don't you make
a great deal of money selling
grapes" Prestley became sus-
piclous. "Migh not these in
quiring persons call around and
steal my money" he cogitated
to himself. He thought he
would try to find way to keep
it secure. He thought OF var
ious ways, but didn't know
what to do. If he kept 1t lock.
ed up In the house, some thiet
might come in the night and
rob his house and kill him too;
if he kept it in his pocket, he
might lose it by some accident,
his pocket might be picked or
he might be robbed and killed
besides; II he put it in the
bank, that might "bust" How
ever, he finally hit upon a plan
There was an opening IN the
ceiling, he would put it up
there above the plastering; no
thief would ever think of get.
ting it up there. SO he pro-
cured an old match box, put
his money, some fifty dollars, In
it and deposited above the cell.
ing between the jolsts. No
further attention was paid to il
until several days elapsed when
Mr. d.. thought he d take a look
But alasl the uncertainty oil
human events, it was. gone
The first thought was that il
was stolen by biped in hu.
man shape; but a noise as i
made by mice had occasionally
been heard. Now, Mr.. Fl. car
"smell a mice" as we'll as any
body, and he watched, like an
industrious cat, and finally
tracked mouse to its hiding
place where he found some
! eighteen dollars in bills ant
some four d liars in fractional
currency, the greater portion
of the latter being badly mu
tllaled. Mr.. Ii. says there il
another mouse in the house
that has the remainder of the
money, and which he expects
to capture, but at last accounts
he had not yet succeeded.
Our advice is, 10 persons
having money to save, to put /
in the bank, where it will in
