Associated Press pispatch.

About O year ago the stockholders OF the
Liberty g. Vienna Railroad Company sold
that road TO the A. Y. g. P. Railroad Company
bonds of tine latter company. Owing to some
subsequent misunderstanding the matter was
brought before the courts and for the past
four or five months tue A. Y. g. p. Company
had control of the former road by virtue Of
an injunction which expired at two o'clock
yesterday afternoon, at which time there ap-
peared upon The premises two of the principal
stockholders OF the L. & V. r. r., with a
large force of men, who tore up the track, cut
the wires, stopped all trains, took possession OF
the rolling stock and are now in furciIie pos =
session of the road, with force of two or three
hundred armed men. William McCreery,
President, and other officers of the A. Y.
u P. r. II. are at Youngstown, and it is
reported that special train has left
Pittsburg with reinforcements for Nc
Creery, who is backed up by Tom Scott
and the Pennsylvania Company. Great
excitement prevails, and there is iInmi-
nent danger OF a riot.
Everything is quiet here this evening.
| There was much excitement here to-day,
but no riot.
1t appears that only part ofthe Lib
| erty and Vienna railroad was sold TO the
A. \. d T. company, aud part payment
made in cash. The balance in bonds OF
the latter company was rendered, bat
the Liberty & Vienna company refused
to accept them, and claim they still own
the road, never having decided it away.

WAR UPON THE A, Y. q P.-The injunction
upon the A. Y. & p. restraining the use Of that
part Of the line known as the Liberty q Vienna
road, has been argued before Judges Gliddon
and Conant, who decided to dissolve the in
junction The news reached Youngstown
from Warren by Telegraph. on Monday after
noon. The effect OF this Information Is told
by a correspondent of the Cleveland Heqgld,
as follows:--Soon after several persons in the
interest of the Vienna and Liberty Company
tore up sections of the rails preventing the
passage of trains of the A. Y. g. p. road and
stationed force to prevent the relaying OF the
rails. Ia the evening Mr.. McCreery President
OF the A. Y. s. p. Company. arrived from
Pittsburg, aud, after consultation with the
officials of the road here and his lawyers, filed
an affidavit before Justice Edwards, charging
John Stambaugh, Homer Hamilton, Frederick
Gerwick, Christopher Metzger, G. L. Heston,
Robert Shehey, John Tidi,aA, Edward Tidball
and George Beidelstein, with :eloneously, etc,
displacing, injuring, etc, the rails, etc, of the
A. Y. = p. Road TO the value OF fifty dollars
and more, under that section of the statute
which makes wilful injury to railroads TO the
value of thirty-ive dollars q peniIentlary of
fence. The magistrate issued warrent for
those persons who were arrested and brought
before him. On motion of Mr.. Stambaugh,
the hearing is postponed to Saturday morn
ing at nine o'clock. The offenders, 1t is said,
will defend their acts on the ground that they.
or those for whom they acted, are the owners
of the road, and have the right to do as they
will with their own property.

lection 10 the points that have been preached
was written by person who did not hear the
preacher at oil. The spirit Of opposition has
been very quiet, although we do mot doubt bot
that In certain quarters there has been scoaIng
and even grea, bitterness.
I: is certaInly to the credit Of our place
and speaks highly for iis religious sentiments
that there has been no more public snd avow-
ed opposition. In fact IL has been said that
our citizens care ready to welcome the meet
ings IL any good might come 10 the town"
and this probably has been the spiri, with
which the whole effort has been received and
yet the effect Mr.. Wells has not 6ltlercd
any body. With the greatest plainess and the
utmost faithfulDess, and yet with Kindness he
has told people their faults, individually and
collectively. With The greatest boldness he
he has declared things which are generally re-
garded unpalatable. He has preached the
'ecsrea doctrines full Of the mundsrngs Of the
law. and has most empbstically and frequently
declared that there was q hell Yet people
have fiock.d again and again To hear these de-
nunciations Of sin and warnings OF its penal
atty. They have listened, and many have
been convinced, and many convicted, and
many converted. There 10 no question that
these same doctrines have sent conviction To
many, and those teo not persons who were
easily excited or alarmed, but Intelligent and
thinking minds.
If there are others who have been aroused,
and who are still thinking that, as honest men,
they may In moderate way yet come out TO
the christian position and profession, vet such
must acknowledge themselves to have been
affected by the preaching; and to be more
thoughtful than they ever have been We
have come to the conclusion, therefore, in
view of these facts that the secret of this the
best Of modern revivslists. is in the truth which
ie has preached, and We give credit To the &C.
riously moral earnestness and deep conviction
Of the man, as under God, the means of accom-
plishing so much II is probable that the stated
and constant means Of grace hsYe had much
to do with II, for Mr.. Wells has, by Gods bles-
sing only gathered the fruits of these mo
ny seasons, and the religious convictions
which have long lain dormant but which
parents and prcsers, and christian people
have for many years been planting, have sud
denly ripened and brought forth their propel
fruit
II is the highes: praise 10 the man himself ,c
suppose that his own moral convictions were
deep enough, and that his power of expressing
them strong enough, to bring to the surface ol
into supremacy, the convictions which o.her,
have SO long stided, and if the thorough mora

man could accomplish so great results in Ash

We haye just received from the National
Publishing Co. of Cincinnati. a copy OF Prof
o. s. Fowler's great work on Manhood, wo-
manhood, and their Mutual Interrelatons;
Love, Its Laws, Power, etc. We commend it
10 the perusal Of all classes. Forty years ex-
perience as a. teacher and lecturer ON science,
and a long life devoted to consultations, and
advice in connection with subj cts concerning
which men and women hesitate to confde--
even in their physicians-have enabled Pro-
fessor Fowler to give to the world remarka-
BILE volume. As its title indicates, il is devo-
led TO an explanation of the laws which gov.
ern the sexes In their relations to each other /;
the ignorance OF which causes SO much sor-
row and suffering in the world. There would
be fewer firesides made desolaie by the loss of
a loved wife fewer rendered unhappy by a
prematurely old, broken and enfeeUlcd wife,
if the laws OF Sexual Science" which are
laid down and explained in this book were
better understood and more generally acted
upon. The best guarantee Ofits excellence is
the fact that its suggestions and remedies meet
the approval of every intelligent physician in
the country. So far as a hasiy examination
enables us to judge. the work is pure and ele-
vaicd in tone, and abounds In the most use
iul information concerning the sexes. Its low
price brings in within the reach Of ALL and the
information ii contains is beyond value. The
book is sold by subscription only, aud the pub
listers want agents in every county.
