Az EAGLE TRIES TO CARRY OFF A
GIRL.-On Saturday, the Sd inst, gIrl
named Elizabeth Moore, daughter OF
Albert Moore, living in the northeastern
corner of Cleburne county, was return
ing home from neighbors house,
whittier she had been sent on All er-
rand, when she felt something heavy
strike upon her shoulder, and the next
instant she was borne to the ground
She says that her first impression was
that she had been seized by a panther
or some other wild beast, but soon felt
the talons of what proved to be an ca
Ole clutching her sides and arms, ,lacera-
ting the flesh in fearful manner, and
with its beak pecking her on the head,
she was dragged some distance on the
ground. Pretty soon the eagle having
secured his prize, with claws and bill
firmly fixed, raised her from the ground
and sailed along at from three to four
feet above the earth some distance. DC
casionaly she was dropped on the
ground, but the eagle would as often
raise her again, making new and serious
wounds with his talons in her head. till
at last he reached the height of ten feet,
and attempted to light on the limb OF
red oak tree on the roadside, when his
hold again gave away. and the girl fell
to the earth seriously stunned and hurt.
She was unconscious for time, then
clambered over the fence near by into
her fathers orchard, and began making
the best of her way to the house, near
which she was met by her mother, who
lad been attracted by her screams. and
was fastening to her relief. The most
remarkable part of the matter is that
the girl did not see the eagle at all. A
shawl, which had been securely fasten-
ed about her head, so as to project over
her face, hid the rude antagonist from
view. The track along which she was
dragged, however, was plainly visible
in the road. The girl Elizabeth is IA
years of age, and weighs between 80
and 90 pounds. Her father is very
reliable and worthy man. He is a SON.
in-law of Mr. Hatfield, in the same sec
ton Of the country, aud lives about five
miles from Tecumseh Iron Works. The
girl was not seriously hurt, and is doing
we'll. The eagle has been twice seen
since by the hunters, who are making
every effort to kill or capture him.

willing to join the armed force were to
be conveyed by the underground rail-
road from the mountains to Lake Onta-
rio and thence to Canada. The Allie
ebanies, said Brown, were created by
the Almighty for this purpose. They
abound in natural forts and hiding
places. There are thousands of strong
holds where ten men could withstand a
hundred. He gave two reasons why
there should be no longer any delay in
the movement, and why it was the only
right step toward emancipation. First;
the plan, when in operation, would
make the slave power daily weaker, as
slave property would constantly grow
more insecure; secondly, it would keep
up the agitation of the slave question,
for it was belief of Browns that the
AGITATION was at that time dying out
Said he. Nat Turner's insurrection near

will assure it.
Brown finally made the movement on
Harpers Ferry, contrary to the advice
of Douglass, who had an interview with
him Just before the event. Douglass
had intended to join in the toray If the
original plan had been carried'out, but
at the last moment he withdrew, feeling
that it would be futile to contend with
the United States forces in an open cor
fict. He eulogized with rare pathos
Shields Green, colored man, who al
his last interview decided to "go with
the old man. When, by and by, a
monument is built to John Brown, a
niche must be reserved in it for Shields
Green. He extolled, also, the othersof
Browns little army. In answer to the
question, Why did Brown fail at Har-

SELF had said that it was because he was
too tardy in his movement after the

TOO LATE.

Too late. too late, was meyer said,
Of morning SUP, or bird or flower,
The light is true to hill and glade,
The rose bud opens to the hour;
The lark never asks the day to wait,
But man awakes too late, too late !
Too late, too late, our anger burns
The sun goes down before the flame
To gentle words of kindness turns,
And we are scourged with inward
shame
To think our breasts have harbored hate,
And pride bows down-too late, too
late.
Too late. too late, for public prayer,
The words of worship have begun
Our cheeks are flushed with hast'ning
there,
We enter as the chant is done,
And, pushing at the temple gate, =,
We stand and say, "Too late, too late.
"Too late, too late" who has not said,
The post is out-the train is gone
The time is fed-the debt not paid
The aid not sought-the work not
done
Neglect makes up life's weary frei ght,
And then we cry TOO late, too late.

A part of the Grange movement in
the West has taken practical cast re-
Gently, which is attracting considerable
attention. A letter from Col. Z. T.
Cabell, of Richmond, Va, sent to the
St. Louis Republican, mentions the fact
that leading official of the North
Western Oranges has written q letter
of inquiry asking if the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad could be leased 50 ss to
be run in the Interest of the producing
classes. This, of course, would mean
an effort to get . great freight railroad

A Maa Hanged by Women.

A letter from Trinidad, Colorado
Territory, dated the 9th, says;
About ten days ago woman by the
name of Molly Howard came here from
Las Animas, and took up her residence
in small hut within sight OF our post
Office. At the same time man arrived,
who claimed to come from California
This man was an American. He was
lame in one foot. having had his toes
frozen, and was only able 10 wear a
boot on one of his feet He was OF
sandy complexion. medium height,
heavy set, with very bad face. He
lived in small hut with four or five
Mexican men.
On Saturday morning last the town
was thrown into state of great excite
ment by the report that Molly Howard
was found in her house murdered. On
entering the cabin in which the crime
was committed sickening sight was
presented. The poor woman lay across
her bed dead, with the left side OF her
head mashed to jelly; on the forehead
was cash two inches in length, on her
chin two ugly bruises, and on her throat
the imprints of finger-nails were visible.
About 9 o'clock Monday morning
groups of men with revolvers, gathered
together At about eleven the groups
concentrated into one large crowd and
proceeded to the coroners office. Find
ing that the inquest was over, they
erded their way to the Office OF one OF
our justices of the peace There they
entered the building, and seizing the
American, they once more made their
way down the street toward the nver,
followed by at least one hundred ana
fifty persons of both sexes. ,
At the river side large cottonwood
tree was cought and found,a rope thrown
over projecting limb and fastened
around the culprit neck. lie was then
asked if he had anything to say, when
he confessed to having killed Molly
Howard because she owed him one dol
lar. He was then told he would b.
given ten minutes to make his peace
with his Creator. He replied that he
did not want to pray.
A woman by the name OF Moline
then fastened another knot on the rope
around his neck, the word was given,
and she, with three other disrepntabIe
women, and in the presence of at least
two hundred and fifty persons, Mexican
and American launched the murderer
into eternity. lie died in about fifteen
minutes.

DEAru OF JACOB FRY.-We noticed
in our last paper the disgraceful distur.
bance which took place at the Fair OF
the ladies of Trinity Lutheran Church,
held at Lyccum Hall, and which result

as it is alleged, was resisting and as-,

that on Wednesday last Fry died. and
was buried in Rose Hill Cemco ory on
