ATTEMPT TO STEAL THE BopY OF
GENERAL SuERiDAN's FATHER-The
Somerset (Ohio) Press states that a few
evenings since it was discovered that
the body of John Sheridan, ST., father
of General p. H. Sheridan, in the Cath
Ole cemetry in that place, had been
tempered with. Father Noon was no
tilted of the condition of the grave and
he, with John L. Sheridan and Dr. j.
d. Mckinney, proceeded to make an
inspection of it, which showed that the
earth as far down as the boards cover
ing the coffin had been thrown out,
but that the body had not been disturb
ed. 1t is believed that the resurrec-
tionists become alarmed and abandoned
the work very hurriedly, as they left a
spade and dropped case containing a
pair Of spectacles and pencil. Tracks
in the lane back of the ccnetry showed
that they had with them a one-horse
wagon and two horses. The object of
this attempted grave robbery is diff
cult to divine. Mr.. Sheridan has been
dead for more than three months, it is
hardly likely that the body would be
desired for dissection. BY some it is
believed that the robbers expected to
get reward for the return of the

n6- FROM LEETowN.-Templar, our
Leetown correspondent, sends us the
following items, under date Of Septem-
Der 6, for publication -
The troubles of childhood are again
on the increase, the public schools are
again open, and the rising generation
are at work upon spelling books, read
ers, ETC. Rev. Mr.. Cooper has charge
of the school in the second sub.district,
or the supper school, as it is generally
called, and Henry G. Evans is again at
work at the "Gridiron Academy in the
third sub-district. Both of the above
named schools were opened TO- day. Our
new Board of Education met to day,
and organized for business by re-elect-
ing John F. Smith as their secretary.
They laid district levy of % cents on
the hundred dollars of taxable property
in the district, and fixed the salaries of
teachers at $50 per month for No. l.,
ranging down to $2s for No. S. The
schools are to be continued for nine
months.
Mr.. Jos. F. Grantham of this place
was driving home on Wednesday eve
ming last, just after nightfall, and had
reached piece of timber near "Glass-
ford's HILL" where in the darkness his
buggy was fouled against light wagon
driven by Mr.. Fellows, fortunately both
were driving slowly and a jolt apiece
was the only result of the accident. Mr..
Musgrove, our village butcher was not
so fortunate in getting out Of an accident
on Wednesday; he was driving to Mr..
Bakers Mill, but some of his harness
became detached in going down hill
near his destination, and the horse not
liking that state of affairs, tilted Mr.. NJ.
out of the vehicle, and landed him
against the fence, bruising him in sun
dry places. He says that the road just
where the accident occurred is in need
of repairs, and ought to be attended to
at once.
Mr.. Markle, the Constable of Middle
way, was in Leetown one day last week,
and having purchased new pocket
book, he threw the old edition of that
important work into the street, in front
of the Postofice. Bro. Nicely's boys
passed along, but did not observe the
tempting bait, and went on their way.
Presently a citizen of the village came
up, and spied the supposed treasure. He
STONED. looked around, saw no one,
slid the pocket-book into his pocket,
and-then went home to examine his
prize. After while he came around to
the Postoffice to learn who had lost a
pocket-book. The finder did Mt receive
any reward.

The TiEToN-BEEcHER CAsE.-The
general impression in New York is that
the Tilton- Beecher suits are at an end,
at least as far as Mr.. Tilton is concerned.
One great difficulty seems to be the
want of money. Some friends of Mr..
Tilton short time after the former tri-
al evinced desire to get up subscrip-
ton in his aid, but the project has ap-
parently fallen through. 1t is stated
that Mr. Tilton's counsel feel that they
did their duty to their client by work
ing for him through the first trial, and
they are unwilling to 60 further in the
matter without compensation. There
has also been a little pickering between
some of the counsel and their client,
and this has caused the counsel to be-
come little lukewarm in the cause. 1t
is stated authoritatively that under the
present circumstances, should the matter
be brought to trial again, the former
counsel will not act-N. T. Tribune,

Important Results Pleasantly
Achieved.

Although the days of irrational medica-
ton are happily passing away, and intel
ligent physicians have ceased to measure
the supposed efficacy Of a remedy by the
violence Of its effects, there still linger
among the older practitioners few Of
those predictions I'm favor of "heroic"
treatment, which it would be lucky for
their patients If they had abandoned. One
of these is fondness for administering
drastic purgatives, such as blue pill, Gallo
mel, jalap and castor oil. A contrast of
the effects of these drenching drugs with
the mild and benefcent operation of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, is the very best
argument that can be adduced against the
wisdom of such destructive treatment.
The old fashioned cathartics convulse the
stomach, and relax the bowels so abruptly
and cOpiously as to weaken them. Hos
tetter's Bitters, on the contrary, never
grippe the intestines, but produce laxa-
tive effect resembling the action of ma
ture. At the same time they remove the
cause Of stipulation, by arousing the dor
mant liver to secrete the bile necessary to
the regular performance of the excretive
function, and enable the stomach to thor
oughly digest the food. Indigestion and
biliousness having been thus overcome, q
regular habit of body is the necessary con-
sequence, which the occasional subse-
quent use of the Bitters renders perma-
nent. Every disagreeable symptom which
in the absence OF perfect digestion and
evacuation, harnesses the system, vanishes
under the influences ofthe great national
stomachic and Alternative. Health and
vigor are twin blessings that follow its
use.

p~REv. MAeRuDER MAuRY's LET

p~REv. MAGRUDER MAURYs LET
TER TO THE BIsHoP.-Rev. Magruder
Maury, late Rector of the Episcopal
Church at Middleburg, Loudou Comfy,
Va, has written a letter to Bishop
Johns, renouncing his ministry in that
church, a communion with which he has
been associated for nineteen years, and
requesting to be deposed from the same.
Mr.. Maury's letter is published in
pamphlet form, making sixteen pages,
and is an elaborate justification of the
step he has taken, and minute setting
forth Of the causes that impelled him
thereto. He concludes his letter as
follows
Gin closing this letter, which is much
longer than / expected it to be, l desire
to say that it is written, not tor the
purpose of indicating myself in the
step I have taken, but as an humble
testimony to the truth, that Gods
church is not mere association of men
and women, combined for the purpose
Of getting good and doing good, accor-
ding to certain rules and principles,
which, in the exercise of their own wis
dom, they themselves have prescribed,
(for Temperance Society, or Mason
ic Lodge, may be all that.) But that it
is Divine institution, the warrant for,
and the charter OF which is Gods Word,
(Which, according to II Timothy, IL;
l6; "Thoroughly furnishes his children
"tor eusry good work y that its dis
tinctive principle is subsection "io
Christ in everything" (Eph.. V: 24.)
and that its members are those believers
in Jesus, who, rejecting the ordinances
and traditions of men, "are gathered
together into His Name" looking to
His Spirit as the only and the all-sufi-
cient guide and power of their worship
and testimony.
Of course I do not mean that they
only are members of Christs body, the
church, who reject the ordinances of
men. But do mean that not sren
true believers can be scripturally as
sembled for worship, and in their proper
capacity as a Church, unless repudia-
ting all human dictation and restraint,
they subject themselves only to the Spi-
rit."
In postscript, dated the 23rd Of Au-
gust, 1875, Mr. Maury adds:
"Perhaps ought to state by way OF
explanation, that I do not regard a
withdrawal from the ministry of the
Protestant Episcopal Church as being
synonymous with abandoning the min
;stry of the Lord Jesus.
On the contrary | believe such min
istry can only be fulfilled according to
His mind, outside of tina Protestant
Episcopal, and all other humanity con-
structed ecclesiastical organizations"

men entered and, placing pistols at his
head, compelled him to open the safe.
A colored man happened in at this mo-

which he did. The robbers succeeded
in getting possession of $4,000, with
which they decamped. A confederate

instantly given, and citizens and police
started in pursuit, but failed to overtake
the robbers, all Of whom escaped.

AN UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR-A FAITH

Cincinnati, Sept. IA dispatch from
Indianapolis says: Some days ago a
man named Peterson, residing in this

daughter OF a farmer named Trustys,

against the old man, and last night he
approached Trustys' house. Trustys
being enraged at the persistence of the
fellow in his attempts to accomplish
the ruin Of the girl, took down his shot
gun, intending to shoot him at sight.
Trustys' son, aged Is years, learning of
his fathers design, ran up to dissuade
him, and Trustys, installing the boy
for Peterson, fired, killing him instant
