A TRUE LADY.

A Washington correspondent, in
speaking of Washington society, says
In family where death mas enter
ed since the year 1878 dawned, there
was reception. It was held By
Mrs. Spraguc, daughter of the late
Chief Justice and wife of the Senator
from Rhode Island. The reception
was an informal one--tlat is, tho
lady extended no invitations, but
saw those who called. To say that
it was not announced in the p&pers
would be superfuous. The press
has yet to find the Sesame" of those
aristocratic doors. Ever since the
days when, as Katherine Chase, this
beautiful woman, then n lovely girl
was presented to Washington society,

A PRoPnECY or SCIENCE.

Professor Winchell, in n recent
lecture at the Cooper Institute, New
York, entitled, "Glimpses of the
Future, argued that "the final of
this world and of all the planets, as
foreshadowed by the results Of
scientific research, would be to be
precipitated into the sun. The re-
turning periods Of the comets are
growing shorter; they always come
back little too soon. The earth is
shortening its years and drawing
nearer to the sun. All the planets
are plowing their way through a
resisting medium, and many years
ago it began to be calculated what
would be the end Of that resistance.
1t is well demonstrated that the light
from the sun is propagated in the
form of undulations. The light OF
each star has trembled along its path
on the wings Of ether in some cases
for 100000 yearsl Through the
resistance Of this exceedingly tenuous
fluid, all the planets Of our solar
system are destined to be precipita-
ted into the sun and become one
totally refrigerated mass" We
guess not.

A negro living in q neighboring
county, having been fortunate enough
to accumulate considerable Of this
worlds goods, desired, as all Loyal
subjects should, to pay tax on the
same. 1t being new business to
him, he did not know there was q
proper officer for receiving tax
and concluded all that was necessary
was to find q man with white skin.
Consequently he hailed the first
white man he met with, "say, boss,
l want to pay my tax; must glib il
to you?" On being told that it would
be received by the comprehending
white gentleman, the negro gave him
S25, and asked il that was enough.
II suppose it is" said the white
man, Boss, gin me shown for
dat" said the negro. Again the wits
of the white man were at work, and
he soon handed the negro u slip Of
paper with the inscription: "As
Moses lifted the serpent out Of the
Wilderness, likewise have 1 lifted
twenty five dollars out of this d--n
negros pocket" Not long after this
the negro met the tax collector
proper. "Done paid it, boss, and
here's dc 'ceipt," at the same time
handing the piece Of paper to the
officer. He read Gas Moses lifted
the serpent out of the Wilderness,
likewise have l lifted twenty-five
dollars out Of this ID negro'a
pocket" "Hold on, boss, you have
read um wrong" calculated the
astonished darkey, as he snatched
the paper and carried it to another
man who began to read, "As Moses
lifted" Here he was interrupted
by the negro. who exclaimed: "Look-
agar; just gin me dat paper, I'm
gwine to lift dat white man out'n his
boots, fore God I is" With this he
left, and not having been heard Of
since, il is supposed he is still look
ing for the man to whom he paid his
tax - DalrsOn. Ga. ,JOhrnnL.

Murder at segfried's Bridge.

Last Monday evenings most distress.
ing affair occurred in the little village Of
Newport, on the canal, a short distance
this side of Siegfrled s Bridge, aud only
about six miles above this city, by which
a man named Smith, resident of that
place, lost his life. The clrcumstance
attending the transaction were most
melancholy, afford another striking in
stance of the evil effects of the use and
abuse Of intoxicating liquors. 1t ap-
pears dance, or "frolic," as most
generally called, came Off In the village
tavern, and that among those in attend
ance was Smith, and that between him
and man na med Cunningham bi tier
quarrel sprang up. One word borrow.
ed another, until Smiths temper, heated
by stimulants, and the severe epithets
which his adversary heaped upon him,
caused him to enter into a fistic en-
counter with him, during which Cum
ningham drew a dirk and plunged 1t
into the abdomen of his antagonist, SO
that the blood from the wounds spirited
over his hands, face and clothes. Seve-
raj stabs were inflicted In the groin and
side. The man fell to the floor, groan-
ed terribly, and soon after died, though
not until after DR.. Becker, of Whitehall
Station, had been called to see him, who
however at once pronounced the wounds
as being necessarily of a fatal charac-
ter. Smith was man Of family, /, and it
said Cunningham, who is boatman,
formerly boa rded with him. The latter
was taken in custody Immediately after
the occurrence, and yesterday morning
committed to prison at Easton - the
locality Of the murder being in North.

TIL. snmmlt HtIl Murder.

The summit HhI murder.
During the past week there have been
dozens Of reports In regard to the horrid
murder Of the young woman, Lelnbacb,
at Summit Hill. At one time the muir
derer was caught, again forty stalwart
policemen were said to be lurking in
that highly picturesque little town keep
ing strict watch upon the premises
wherein the supposed murderer welt, q
stud at been found and then torn and
blood.stained shirt which had fixed the
crime upon young man, from these
and numerous other like reports, when
we mounted the buggy behind the cele-
brated matched-team (Jersey) of our
friend L. F. Kleppinger, on Wednes-
day morning last, for the purpose Of
visiting the scene OF the murder, we
were prepared to encounter scenes of a
very startling nature-yes, even to
find the people runping about with ropes
prepared to lynch the culprit on the
spot. Imagine our surprise, when on
reaching town, we found everything
moving along calmly and quietly, and
none spoke Of the murder unless direct
ly appealed to on the subject, and then
the answer we received was" The
affair is becoming more and more wrap
ped in mystery. and it is doubtful IL it
Is ever unravelled." We took dinner
with friend Klotz, at the Eagle Hotel,
and were assured by him that they had
abundance of testimony to clear his son
Of any share In the murder. After a
stop Of about three hours, we started
on our return trip, by way of Nesque-
honing, and, as in going we found the
excitement and rumors decrease as we
neared the scene, so in returning, we
found them to increase at each stopping
place, until reaching Lehighton, we
were startled by the announcement that
Mr.. Klotz's son had been arrested and
lodged in Jail, while we. who had eaten
dinner with him, and only left his home
two or three hours previous, knew moth
ing of the reported arrest.
Here is another specimen "brick" of
the reports going the rounds In regard
to the murder. copied from the Stating
ton News of Wednesday last
MuRpER.-On Tuesday night of last
week three Irishmen stopped at house
occupied by family named Heimbach,
at Summit Hill, Carbon. county, and
called to the door Miss Kate Leinbach,
a daughter of about II yeaIs. They
then seized her, took her too the woods
near the village, outraged her person,
md then murdered her. She was found
the next morning with her skull crushed
and brains scattered about. The mur-
derers are known by the mother Of the
girl.
Such are some of the rumors going
the rounds of the press and people, and
so far as we could learn there is no truth
In them. When the coroner Is through
with his inquiry, we may learn the facts,
In the meantime let US trust the perpe-
traitor of this fiendish crime may be
brought to speedy justice.
