I ABOUT the first of May Samuel
Shively and wife made his advent in
to this goodly city, and took up his
abode. On Wednesday last, q broth
er-ln-law, who, it seems, was bound
to him by two-fold bond of relation
ship, presented himself to constable
Trail, and gave him a photograph OF
his interesting relative, and requested
him to lay upon him the hand of the
law. Mr.. Trail soon had him in
charge, when upon hearing the fol-
lowing facts were elected:
Samuel Shively is a native of West
moreland county, Pa, was born of
poor but honest parents, and when he
had come to wears of maturity, gave
his hand and his heart to Susannah
Henry. They lived in peace and har-
mony until their home was blessed
with four little Shivelies; A couple
of y ears since the Shivelies removed
to Tiffin, this State, taking with them
a sister of Mrs. Shively's. During
these two years Mr.. Shively became
convinced that he could make better
wife of his sister-in-law than he could
out of Susannah. So on the Doth of
April last, leaving Mrs. Shively and
all tH6 lILbl0 SuLFSileS III 4I1an, uS OS-
parted with Miss Henry, junior, for
Dayton, where he obtained the legal
documents which would enable him
to confer upon Miss Henry the honor
able distinction of being known as
Mrs. Shively No. 2. But "man pro-
poses Sc, and Mr.. z. Henry, broth
er-in law of this too much married
man, heard of the state of affairs, and
traced the happy couple to Alliance.
where he had him arrested on charge
of bigamy. He was bound over to
answer in $500.-Loeal.

The Report on General Howard.

The War Department has promul-
gated the order relative to the Special
Court of Inquiry appointed 10 inves-
tigate the charges against Cen o. o.
Howard. The facts don't seem to
warrant the assertions made by the
Radical papers just after the closing
of the investigation. that the Court
was unanimous in finding the charges
unsustained, A Washington special
says:
ssThe order embraces the repots of
facts by the Court, their opinion, and
the findings and, lastly, the approval
bv the President of the finding. The
opinion of the Court, which is very
favorable and Ienient to Howard, is
not noticed by the President at alls
The spirit of the Court, or rather the
majority thereof, may be gathered
from the fact that after showing that
in a large number of cases vouchers
or receipts for money were taken from
the colored soldiers without paying
them their money, the Court says it
does not necessarily follow that frand
or wrong-doing has been committed.
In other words, il is lawful to make
ignorant negroes write a lie, and say
they have received money when they
have not done so. The majority of
the Court give Howard clean ver-
dict of acquittai, These were Gen.
w. L. Sherman, QuarteFmasJer- Gen
eral Meigs, Colonel Reynolds and
Colonel Miles. The minority of the
Court were Generals Mcdowell and
Pope, and Colonel Getty. The report
/ of Judge AdVocate-Ge General Holt TO
the President deals with Howard with
pitiless severity. He says, among
other things, "When the Commission
er of the Freedman's Bureau was in
trusted by Congress with the duty of
taking better care than formerly that
pay and bounty should be faithfully
paid to the colored people TO whom it
! belonged. If he not only failed to
provide an efficient system for the ex-
ecution of this trust, but adopted one
which, rejecting the safeguards which
had been previously observed, was
wholly inadequate, and productive OF
mistakes and fraud, and this conceal
ment of such derelictioh, Ignorance O1
law, the pressure of many duties OF
inexperience in administration, though
combined with good intentions, are
matters OF palliation, not of justifica-
ton" The report also sets out with
much force the illegal investment OF
money and bonds, and the conceal
ment of the fact from the Secretary OF
War"

The haying season commences this
year somewhat later than usual. But
very little hay has, at this time, been
secured. This week, however, wealth

the crop secured. AS general thing
the crop is exceedingly light. No
amount of rain can now help increase
the quantity. Worms have injured
the crop more with US than drouth.
Wheat is good, and will be ready for
the reaper this week.

On Tuesday afternoon, Alexander
Fletcher, Leroy Lamborn and little
son of Simon johnson, attempted to
cross the r. r. track near the Star
blaming mill. The building obstruct-
ing the view of the track from the
west side the approach of the Express
train No. 4, was not noticed until too
late to retreat. The engine str&ck the
horse, and knocked the wagon along
side the track. The wheels next tho
train heing crushed, the wagon tipped
over towards the track, holding the
occupants under the edge of the cars,
grazed by the car steps as they passed
and liable every moment to be drag
ged under the wheels. The johnson
boy and Lamborn would have been
dragged under but for the presence of
mind of Mr.. Fletcher who succeeded
in holding them out of the way of the
ca rs until the entire train passed. The
horse was killed, the harness stripped
off and the wagon demolished. The
escape of the boys may be regarded
as one of the most wonderful on rec
