Baptist Sunday School Celebration.

On last Thursday night we had the
pleasure of attending the interesting
celebration of the above school Mt the
Baptist church.
AS we entered the church, we were
charmed with the attractive appear
ance of the beautifully illuminated
christmas tree, and the graceful arch
OF evergreens over the stage, with ap-
proprate biblical inscriptions.
MIR. John S. Cuttino, ths efficient
superintendent, conducted the cere-
monies, which consisted principally
OF singing and recitations by some of
the children.
After this came the presel. tation of
prizes, taken from the tee by Mr.. w.
A. Edwards, and presented to the
children by Mr.. Cuttino. This was
an interesting part of the perform
ance; some of the little ones being
hardly large enough to carry them

Hardly a week passes but that it
becomes our painful duty to chronicle
the demise Of some weary pilgrim OH
life's tempestuous way. This time the
dread summons Of death has fallen
nearer home, the victim being sister
of our publisher, Mr.. 6. w. White
head.
Miss 1lcodosia Whitehead died in
Richland county on the 4th Of Febru-
ary, 1875, after lingering and pain
fnl illness.
The funeral services were performed
at the Methodist church on Sunday
afternoon lust, large circle of friends
and the members of the Temperance
Society following her remains to the
grave.
She was consistent member of the
christian faith, and endeavored con.
scientiously, to perform the varied
duties Of life; which thought alone
should form the solace of her be-
reaved friends and relatives.

AS soon as all the names were called
out, the remainder of the articles.on
the tree, consisting Of sugar plums
and other nice things, were thrown
promiscuously among the children
present.
In conclusion aibeautiful hymn was
sung, and the children, with their
guests, repaired to the Young Ameri-
ca Hall, where they did justice to the
splendid supper prepared for them.
The Christmas tree was to have
taken place Mt the appropriate season,
but was postponed until this night an
consequence of the measles.
This school has been gradually
growing, and VIC hope it will continue
to prosper, as the Sunday.school, if
properly conducted, is powerful aux
iliary to the church. l a.s

by the murshals to the corporate lin

business, if they had any, and also
warned that if they were caught lott
ering about town again, they would
be taken up and treated under the va

was thought advisable to dispense
with him as quickly as possible.

The Assault on the Editor OF the Free
Citizen. &
On Thursday last the public mind
was somewhat excited by the rumor
Of q collision between Mr.. B. William
son, a clerk in the treasury office, and
formerly chief clerk of Humbert, the
defaulting treasurer, and Mr.. "A. e.
Webster, the editor of the Free Citi-
zen.
It appears that DIr. Williamson
called at Judge Knowlton's office,
where Mr.. Webster attends to his
duties as trial justice, aud entered
into a conversation with iiim. Ac-
cording to the account of persons. who
were standing at some distance, the
conversation seemed to be progressing
pleasantly, and no difficulty was an
ticipated, when suddenly Mr.. Vii
Hanson raised his stick, Il formidable
weapon, and struck Mr.. Webster a
stunning blow.
Itappeared to be some time before
Mr.. Webster got his stick in defensive
position; but when he did, the chances
of war seemed to be equally balanced,
until his stick broke, when the for
tunes Of the day turned completely
against him.
AT this point the constable was
called, aid Mr.. Williamson went off,
and, we believe, delivered himself up.
Mr.. Webster was badly hurt, re-
ceiving several severe blows on the
head, and one on the arm, which
he used in trying t.. ward off the blows.
DIR. Dukes was called in and dressed
the wounds.
The difficulty is said to have grown
out of an article on County Affairs" y,
in the Free Citizen of January 3Oth.
i'll which MIR. Webster commented
freely upon Mr.. Williamson, as Hum.
bert's chief clerk.
The conversation which passed be-
tween them at the time of the meet
ing being known to none but the par
ties themselves, we can only refer to
their statements.
Ac, ording to the published account
in the Free Citizen, Mr.. Webster Of
fered to Mr.. Williamson, if he had
misrepresented him, to correct any
misstatement he had made, or to pub
lish a card from Mr.. Williamson, if
he desired, denying what Humbert
had told him; to which "Mr. William
son replied that lie did not wish his
name used in connection with Hum
berts in this affair.""
The public will be glad to learn
that Mr.. Webster is gradually recov-
ering from his wounds, and will soon
be at his post.
The argument of might should
never be endorsed.
On Monday morning four susni.

Political NOteS

The California Republican State Convention
met at San Francisco, Thursday afternoon, and
nominated T, G. Phelps for Governor, Joseph
NJ. Cavis for Lieutenant Governor, o. H. Hallet
for Secretary of State. The Convention was
presided over by Hon. A. A. Sargent, and he,
with George @. Gorham made vigorous
speeches against the Central Pacific Railroad.
President Grants administration was endorsed,
and his letter to Gen. White is cited as conclu-
sve proof that he does not desire third term.
Senator Morton is confident that the Republi-
cans will carry Ohio at the next election, and
success there will be indicative of the results OF
the Presidential campaign next year. He
thinks the Liberal or Independent party will
return to the Republican ranks again. The
leaders have always claimed to be Republicans,
and there ID really no difference in either party,
while the causes which brought about the
separation three years ago, have measurably
passed away.
Hon. s. B. Elkins, of New Mexico has been
re-nominated by the Republicans AZ delegate in
Congress for that territory.
There is no truth in the report that Judge
y. X. Hoar had written an opinion about the
New Hampshire Senatorial conflict.
The Liquor Dealers Association of Connecti-
cut has sent out confidential circular to the
wholesale Dealers asking for contributions in
license fee from 800 to $50, and also force the
repeal Of the local option clause in the license
law.
The Independent Journals are getting suspi-

The Trial Bebind the scenes.

I"S. NJ" (Jas. r. YoungD New York Letter in
Phila Star.l
My personal acquaintance with the principals
and many of the friends of both sides has given
me an opportunity to gather few facts Of the
case as it is viewed from behind the scenes.
Beecher's friends honestly believe him innocent,
while Tilton's adherents are divided on the sub
ject. Some Of the latter-good and honest men,
too-assert positively their belief in Beechers
guilt while the others though sympathizing
with Tilton, don't think the main charge of adui-
terry well founded. They feel that Tilton has
been wronged by Reecher, but that it is mis-
take to make the charge Of adultery the basis
OF these wrongs.
All agree that Tilton's lawyers have not man.
aged his case well. With the exception of Pry-
or, they secretly despise their client and went
into the cause principally for notoriety. The ad-
vertisement they get the world over is all the
compensation they ask Beach, who leads Til
toms side, is Beecher's personal friend and ad-
mrer and wanted to be his counsel. 1t was
Beecher's desiRe to have him, but he would not
serve under Evarts, nor would Evarts serve un-
der him; 30 he Was driven to Tilton.
He is looked upon as the ablost advocate in
the case. Like his client, egotism and bad tenn
per are his Characterization. He has brow beaten
and insulted both Fullerton and Pryor, his broth
himself has substantially driven them out of the
case. Pryor-said to be wonderful in his elo-
quence and power in working on the feelings of
jury-was Tilton's choice for the summing up.
He told Tilton that all the time he would ask
would be about four hours But Beach wouldn't
admit of such thing.
The opinion ia universal that Beecher will be
acquitted. In such an event Tlton says he has
material sufficient for at least two more trials.

The railroad War.

NEGOTIATIONS FoR AsKTTIEMENT-pRoBALE BASIS.
An important conference of railroad magnates
was held at Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, last
night. Colonel Thomas A. Scott, President Mr..
Green. Assistant President, and A. j. Cassatt,
Second Vice President of the Pennsylvania
Central, and John King, Jr., Vice President Of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. were present.
The proceedings were secret, but special tele-
gram to the Baltimore american says the proba-
Bile basis Of the arrangement will be
the giving back by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road to the Baltimore and Ohio the terminal
and road facilities enjoyed prior to the railroad
war, and the re-establishment of summer freight
tariffs, such as prevailed last year, and it is also
probable that passenger rates will be fixed on
the Saratoga basis.
