new suit OF clothes. Accordingly he
selected nice outfit, including shirts,
stockings and underwear laid them out
on the bed, and proceeded TO remove his
own garments. just as he had got to
the critical point when his own clothes
Jsete off and the new onls were in3t on,

ATTEMPTED RAPE.
ANOTHER pAsTARDLY ACT NEAR GOOD
HOPE HILL

It would appear as n tina. section OF country
In the vicinity Of the Insane Asylum IL about
becoming notorious for desperate deeds, eaus-
ing the residents Of that section, especially the
female portion, to shudder with fear At tho
dangers lurking near them even when IN close
proximity 10 their own iiresides. Only few
days since an account was published OF the
fendiSh and brutal attempt Of colored des-
perado, named George Dorsey, alias Joe VIII
iiams, TO dishonor aud ravish o young white
woman named Brown, who owes her fortunate
escape TO the desperate struggle had with the
man until assistance was rendered her. In
that encounter she received several severe
blows, the effect Of which Is likely TO tarry
with her for some time to come. 1t was natu-
raj to suppose that the excitement this act Gre
ated, and the assertions made by the male por-
ton Of the residents in that section TO mete out
prompt punishment on the head of the offender
when appreheDded, would have the effect 10
check any further crimes Of similar nature,
but 1t appears that even these threats had no
terror for one man, who yesterday undertook
to repeat the same dastardly work.
The facts obtained IN the case thus far are
very meagre, but sufficient has come to light
to show that the circumstances connected with
the two attempts at rape are somewhat alike,
especially in the commencement.
Some time during yesterday morning
gOAASy u Llu4atSO BlllY
Harrison, residing with family Just beyond
Good Hope Hill, and near Scogg's place, where
she'wss employed to do household work, bucket
IN hand, went TO the spring to obtain fresh
water. The spring was but short distance
from the house, and was surrounded by thick
but low underground of wood. Following the
path that led to the well, in a merry mood,
dreaming of no harm, she came to the spring,
and just as her filed bucket was being raised
a very black man parted the bushes and
came suddenly upon her. Before she could
cry out for help he seized her, covered
her mouth so that no sound could be emitted,
threw Der TO the ground and then attempted to
rsvish her person. The girl made most de-
termined resistance, and, it is believed, foiled
the villain in his purpose.
She gave a description Of the man, which
corresponds somewhat with that Of Dorsey.
but it is thought that this man is the one who
has been lurking in the woods in that vicinity
for some time past, and is believed to be a
fugitive from justice. The men in that section
are so incensed about the two deeds that
neither Of the perpetrators will be fugitiYes
long after they lay hands on them. Probably
a little administering Of lynch law in that sec
ton would have a wholesome effect.

MATRLHONLAL HELP SOCIETY.


The Philadelphia Inquirer says: A very novel
organization has recently made its appearance
In this city which is apt TO attract considerable
attention and liberal patronage from the IN.
married portion Of the community. The 80
ciety is called the German American Matri-
monial Help Society.
Societies OF this nature exist In Europe, and
include an extensive membership, though this
is the first attempt which has been made To
inaugurate them in this country.
The society is to be divided into divisions,
each division containing one thousand members
The divisions are to be subdivided into three
different classes, according TO the ages Of the
members and the amount Of monthly assess
ments.
The society proposes to accept any lady OF
gentleman, between the ages Of fifteen and
hfty years, Of q respectable character and
good repute, as q member, upon paying the
Initiation fec and monthly dues, according to
the class entered. On the expiration Of one
year members become beneficiary, and on get
ting married they receive 9 sum Of money ad-
justed to them in the rules. Each member ID
assessed for every marriage that occurs in the
division to which he belongs for the benefit oil
the member getting married, or in case Of
death for the benefit Of his heirs.
The amount Of premium Is 10 be regulated
by the class and the amount Of assessments
on the sum paid to . married member. In
case of death Of 9 member after one year, $50
will be paid to his heirs, and AFTER two yearl
the sum Of $3.50.
Class No. l, for ladies, receive on marriage
$500; class No. 2, 81 900; class No. 8, 81, 500
All gentlemen who are members Of the society
receive at the time Of their marriage the sum
Of 81 900.
This organization closely resembles other
beneficial societies in is plan Of operation, but
ls especially distinct from them IN its object
which, If Il can be practically carried out, viii
tend to remove formidable obstacle TO the
