On Sabbath last. whilst the car
riages we're in line going to attend the
funeral of j. III. Erik, when near the
corner of Franklin and South streets,
horse attached to a buggy, became
manageable, upset the buggy, and,
tho natural consequence was stam-
pede of horses, and upsetting of VIC
hicles to the number of four or five
buggies and one two-seated carriage,
and the persons occupying them
were either thrown out or had jumped
out. Our informant says the scene
was frightful, and he feared that sew
eral lives would be lost by the plung-
ing of the horses; but Fortunately no
one was very seriously hurt, though
Mrs. Majors was considerably bruised
by one of the horses stepping on her.

According to the Baltimore Sun,
they are as much alike as four peas, y
and their names are Sarah, Mary,
Kate and Jennie, and they are all the
daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Hahan, of
1l9 Low street, Baltimore The quar-
tette made their appearance on earth
together on Tuesday night of last
week, and the next day they were
christened at St. Johns, by Rev.
Father Malloy. The birth of triplets
is most uncommon occurrence, but
the production of quartette is a phe-
nomenon more rare than a transit of
Venus: however, the books go further
than this, and make record of mothers
who have had FIVE, six, seven and even
nine children at Que birth, and we are
prepared to sustain with the proof a
statement of this kind much more ex-
traordinary.

It is difficult to realize, unless
one sits down and recalls the in
termediate events, that almost ten
years have passed since President
Lincoln was assassinated. Yet,
how few of the distinguished men
who stood side by side with him
through all the agony of the great
war now remain to answer to the
roll call of historic names. Chase,
Seward, Sumner, Stanton, with
scores less eminent, officially and
personally, have passed on to the
land of the ilnmortals.

Temperance Lecture,

Mrs. Frances Watkins Harper de-
lIvered a lecture on temperance. on
last Monday evening at the colored
Wesleyan Church, which was a most
praiseworthy effort. The house was
crowded, principally with colored pco-
pie. Mrs. Harper handles her sub
ject well, and does not employ the old
hackneyed style, which is too much
used by speakers on this subject She
is logical, fluent, and impassioned
speaker, and holds an audience under
the spell of her eloquencc
1t is much to be regretted that the
people who lead off at the present
time in the temperance cause, did not
secure the services of this talented
and noted lady to speak in more
commodious place than that in which
she spoke while here, and have used
their influence in securing much larger
audicnces-that more people could
have heard the lecture-and the
speaker could have been benefited in
IL punt view.
This talented woman devotes much
of her time in laboring among those
Of her race in the South, where she
receives but little pay as far as dollars
and cents are concerned. But her
labors are not confined to this class
alone. The old anti slavery workers
remember her as an able CO. worker
with them, in past time; and in later
years she has given lectures on differ
ent subjects in the larger cities to
popular audiences, and speaks on the
same platform with our most eminent
men and women. and is an honored
member of the American Womans
Congress.
Mrs. Harper left this place to fill an
appointment at Koko,no, after which
she will probably return to her home
in Philadelphia. ***
T. A Goodwin, of Indianapolis.
generally spoken of as ''Parson"
Goodwin-in a letter to the Jour
nal of that place, says:
Without claiming to be proph
ct, I venture to predict that in less
than a year the liquor sellers of In
dianapolis, and of every other ''city
of the first-class,' will curse the
new law ruore bitterly than they
ever cursed the Baxter. It's little |
finger will prove to be bigger than
Baxter's loins, else L am no Judge.
But rs it is their bantling,not mine
[ propose to let them curse, only I
would say that it is wicked to curse
too strong. 1t is by far the most |
stringent law ever on the statute
books of Indiana, except the law of |
1855. The world is certainly NOV
ing in the right direction when the
liquor sellers themselves enact such |
a law. Let us thank God and take |
courage.

Horse Talk.

That the fast horse is one of the
great weaknesses of the American
people, without regard to trade, pro
fession. age. sex, or previous cOndi-
ton of servitude, is evidenced by the
interest that is taken by all classes in
anything regarding any popular favor
lite of the turf Our own town and
county are not exceptions to the rule;
and at our request one Of our "hoss
friends has compiled for us the fol
lowing equine items which will prob
ably be OF interest to our readers:
Messrs. Pierce & Walker, Law
renceburgh, arc the fortunate owners
OF the noted pacing horse, Granger,
a beautiful sorrel, Is hands high, who
can do" his mile in 2:3O or better
The same gentlemen own a beauti-
full Blue Bull colt. which promises
with proper training to take position
high up among the trotters.
Omar T. Ludlow's beautiful bay
mare is lot only noted for her beauty,
but for speed as we'll. being able to
score 2:45 with very little handling
Abijah Hayes, noted for his pride in
owning the best stock. has among his
stud a promising Cassius NJ. Clay stall
lion. the admiration of everybody. for
beauty and speed; fine Hambleto-
MAN colt, which is greatly admired;
about thirty promising young stations
aud FLIES, and a number of as fine
Hooded brood mares as any one pos
sesses in this part of the country.
Tim Guard faverite sorrel PAGER
takes rank with any of the green
horses, being able to make his 2:30
with ease.
Mike Seifert's four " ar old stallion,
sired by Straders Cassius NJ. Clay,
can show a gait that promises to make
"a trotter of him in time, if Mike will
devote proper attention TO him.
The above are but few among the
great number of valuable horses in this
vicinity. We think if little atten-
ton was given to training them, Dear
born county could show as fine a list
Of horses as any county in the State.
Never in the history of the horse
has the market been so dull or the
prices so low as at the present time.
Sound road horses, without speed.
that were formerly bringing $500, will
not now fetch over $50; trotters that
can show 2:40, and that lately brought
from $1,000 to $500. can now be
bought for from $500 to 81 900, while
800 and $50 horses that, short time
since, 5000 and $500 was thought to
be low, are hard sale at from $3.50
to $5OO.-N. Y. Commercial Adver
