TIE Martinsburg Statesman proposes
Hon. C. J. FAULKNER as the farmers
candidate for the Presidency in 1873.
The editor says:
We OF the south, too, aye, of the
little State OF West Virginia. can trot
out the greatest statesman farmer, for
the next presidency, to be found any
where in the broad limits OF the Union
-one who is wholly in sympathy with
his brother farmers in their great struS-
gle for equal rights, and who, beside. is
the peer, in all the elements OF states
manship of any public man living in
the United States. Need we name him?
Charles James Faulkner. At the pro-
per time, as we learn from private COM
munications addressed to this office, he
will be brought prominently forward by
the farmers of the west and south. as
their candidate for the presidency, be-
ieviDg that he possesses more elements
OF popularity for that responsible posi-
ton than any man that can be named,
north or south. There is a growing
determination not only among the
farmers, but among all classes of the
people OF the country to bring their
government back to it's former anchor
age and to have it honestly and fairly
administered in the interest of all
classes, and the motto faulkner, Free
Trade and Fraternity" may yet prove
he slogan of a grander revolution in
1876 than that inaugurated in l776.

AT Saratoga the sympathy of the
residents 90 entirely for Mrs. Walworth,
and palliates the crime Of young Frank
in great many ways. The character
of the dead sensationalist is bitterly de-
nounced and the deviltry Of his nature
dwelt upon. The school kept by Mrs.
Walworth was for day scholars only,
and yielded but pittance. 1t has been
closed since the day after the parricide.
During the winter months Mrs. Wall
worth was in the habit OF inviting a
number of friends to literary reunions
at her house. She contributed poems
and essays occasionally, and young
Frank was always present. At one or
two OF these little soirees he read
q piece himself, but was always noted,
even in his mothers house, for q RE-
serve which may or may not have been
difiidence or bashfulness. The semin-
ary for young ladies which Mansfield
Tracy Walworth was caught attempt
ing 10 enter surreptltiously was not
kept by his wife. as has been reported.
1t was the neighboring seminary, then
conducted by DR.. Beecher, a relative OF
Henry Ward Beecher. This happened
seven or eight years ago. Walworth
was arrested, but the matter was
hushed up. His wife's school has only
been in existence a couple Of years. All
this says a Herald correspondent.

G1anf ON Profanity.

On Friday, before leaving for Long
Branch, the President dropped in to
ace q we'll known citizen OF Washing
ton. During his stay the daughter OF
the gentleman referred to- remarked
that she had heard pleasant thing
about him (the President). The Presi-
dent inquired to what she referred. u
have been told by an officer who served
with you in the army" said she, that
he had been with you under many try
inc circumstances, and in no single in-
stance no matter what the provoca-
tom. had he ever known you
to make use of profane language
i was delighted to hear this,
especislly in view Of the fact that
profanity is said to be the true rule, and
not the exception, among army officers,
Win you excuse me, Mr.. President, i
I INQUIRE if what 1 heard is truer' "l'
;s / believe" modestly replied the
President; 81 have always regarded
profane language as unnecessary, to say
the least, and as l am man OF fe"
Nords I have never been able to under
stand the necessity of useless express
sions of the character referred to-

An Iufernal Engine.

Admiral Pothnau. lately French
Minister of Marine, recently issued q
circular warning insurance agents that
an American was trying to sell ma
chine, a small torpedo, for destroying
over.insured ships with impuniy. 1t
looks like block of coal of about Six
inches by three, and could be put into
the coal bunkers without the slightest
susDicion. Once there, it would, when
once thrown into the furnace, explode
after a fixed time. thus enabling the
occupants to get away, or might oe
exploded as it lay. or course the story
was denounced as q sensation intend
ed to help Plimsoll," but, unfortunately
the Birmingham Daily Post has reGeiyS
ed one Of these internal machines which
will, it alleges, perform the duties re;
uuired Of it. The Government should ,
get a few; they might make useiul
Shells; and, at any rate, keep . sh:rp
eve on an invention by which forelgn
sailor in war time might destroy his
ship.-London Spectator.

. A Mule Story.
From the Louisville Herald.

From the Louisville herald.
Yesterday evening an uututored mule,
attached to one OF the East End and
Broadway cars, turned around to look
back as it was going in from Second on
to Jefferson. The car stopped and the
mule would have walked to the rear
end but for the intelligent driver, who
pulled hard on the gee rein and gave
him such q whack with the car-hook
that he bounded straight forward like a
slung.shot. Then he bounded back like
a return ball, just in time to get the
other end of the hook, and renewed
the forward movement with such force
that the rebound brought him up IN a
collapsed condition against the breast
work of the car. The driver looked
shaky, and the mule seemed anxious 10
90 somewhere, and just then two more
cars came up aud stopped ia see what
was going on. A large crowd came up
too, and a young man IN nice clothes,
who looked as If be might be an agent
of the humane society, patted the crea-
ture on the neck, took him gently 6y
the bit, and told him to come. he
only asked him once, and the mnle
went. When they picked the young
gentleman up and put his hat on
again, and wanted TO know If he was
much hurt, he said he thought 1t
wouldn't be more than two ribs and q
collar bone, and then tainted away. he
was carried to the nearest drug store
lust as three more cars came up, and
the number OF spectators increased to
three hundred. The six drivers then
formed hollow square, with the mule
in the centre, and for about three min,
utes the gentle creature went forward
and backward with a velocity that
seemed marvellous; but something
broke, and he SKINNED out his harness
and disappeared around the corner OF
Second and Market like a shot from q
mountain howitzer. Then the six in-
telligent drivers put their shoulders to
the car and pushed it over the grade.
When this was done the repentant mule
was brought back, hitched up, and
trotted away with his load, and every
BODY wanted to know of everybody else
why they don't do that in the firs'
place2

The Railroad TAX Question.

The Commissioners appointed to
make terms with the railroad company
in regard to the paying OF county and
school taxes in this county, did not
succeed in coming TO any definite terms
Mr.. Keyser one Of the Vice Presidents
Of the company, stated to the Commis-
sioners that they were anxious to make
some arrangements whereby all litiga-
tion in the future between the compa-
ny and the county will be avoided, but
that they were not prepared at that
time to make or consider any PROPOSE
tions without an interview with Judge

Railroad Accidents

MENDOZA, May 2S.-Passengers on
the southwark bound train on the
Illinois Central railroad, who arrived
here last evening, state that when the
train was about four miles south OF
Freeport, the locomotive struck two
cedar rails that had been purposely
placed on the track with the evident
intention of throwing the train down
an embankment. The rails were push
ed in front OF the locomotive for about
twenty-five rods when the train was
stopped.
An eastward bound passenger train
on the C. B. & @. railroad, ran into q
pile OF stones, about half past two
o'clock this morning, near Meriden. No
one seriously injured.

reports have been received there OF q
terrible massacre Of Christians by the
Mohommedans at Gradiska, q fortified
town Of European Turkey, in Bosnia on
the river Save. Two hundred and
seventy Christians are reported 10 have
been murdered BY the Mobommedsns.
No further particulars have been re-

Tariff DETERMINATIONS Against
Chrlstianiiy.

The peculiar fitness Of things was
never more happily illustrated than by
the fact that the contemporary move-
ment to interpolste "God in the Consti-
tuition" should be headed by a judge
from the intensely protected State of
Pennsylvania. For the traiff is the
offspring Of Pennsylvania. and the
tariff discriminates againat the God Of
the Christians, and in the favor of the
gods OF the pagans, in the most un-
righteous and invidious manner. Those
joss-sticks and joss-lights wherewith
the "heathen Chinee" testifies his be.
nighted sense "of all those acts which
Deity supreme doth ease its heart Of
love in" are admitted free of duty by
special enactment OF Congress;
but sacramental wine, Of necessary use
among all denominations Of Christians,
is taxed from 25 cents to $3 and 81 per
gallon. A statute of Jupiter for orna-
menting a heather symposium Of SCI
ence can come in free, but a marble
altar-piece must pay so per cent. The
golden calf of Aaron, the golden Dagon
Of Burmah, would come in free, but
gold.iringed altar cloth for st. Nopo-
mue's must pay 35 per cent. and a
golden candlestick for st. Patrick's
Cathedral must pay Sc per cent duty.
Tom Paine's bones might return untax.
ed, but Bishop McIlvaine's coffin was lis
able to a duty of IS per cent. Uunder
these circumstances, the movement to
put God into the Constitution is virtu-
ally a movement to eliminate pagauism
from the tariff, and as such has our
heartiest sympathy.-WorM.

A DISASTROUS runaway occurred on
Cranberry grade on Saturday evening,
or Sunday morning last. Engine 44O,
OF the consolidation" pattern, on tonnage
west, got 80 much of start down grade
that, although the engineer had the
engine reversed, the brakes were unable
to hold the train, which went pitching
down the grade at a terrible rate, and
was only checked when it plunged into
a train ahead near the first tunnel on
the grade. The wreck was one Of the
biggest that has occurred on this road
for long time. Twenty-six cars were
literally mashed.up. The engineer es-
capped with few slight bruises-no one
else being hurt in the least.-Gratton

Mr.. Guy. the proprietor OF the
Monument House, bore striking re-
semblance to Lewis Cass. "He dressed
like Cass, and although not so portly'
his face, including the wart, was
strangely similar. One day Western
friend OF the house came in after a long
ride, dusty and tired, and walking up to
the Office encountered General Cass who
was quietly standing there. Mistaking
him for Guy, he slapped him on the
shoulder and exclaimed, We'll old fel-
low, here am; the last time l hung
nv hat in your sbanty, one OF your
clerks sent me to the fourth story /;
but now that have got hold OF you
I insist upon lower room. The
General, a most dignifed parsonage
taken aback by this startling salute
coldly replied: "You have committed
a mistake, sir. l am not Mr.. Guy; !
am General Cass, of Michigan, and
turned angrily away. The western
man was shocked at the unconscious
outrage he had committed; but before
he had recovered from his modification,
General Cass who had passed around
the office, confronted him again, when
a second time mistaking him for Guy,
be faced him and said, Here you are
at last 1 have Just made devil OF q
mistake; l have met old Csss and took
him for you, and am afraid the
Michigander has gone off mad.

Forest Fires.


PoRTsMoUTH, June 2e.-One OF the
most destructive forest fires ever known
in New England, is now raging here in
the wooded portion Of Plymouth county:
1t began on Friday, the Goth inst, and
has increased in magnitude and furry
ever since. The citizens in Cape dis
trict, are organizing for the protection
of the hamlets and Villages, which they
inhabit. The fire has covered immense
areas of wooded land. and laid bare
many miles. A near approach OF tn
fire to the thickly eettled portion OF
Plymouth seems hardly probable No
buildings in the path Of the fire have as
