Woman's Curiosity AlIaved

The Kingston IN. " Freeman relates
the following as an illustration of non
appreciation of art:
can artist not unknown to fame, who
for number of years has made sketches
during the Summer in the Kingston
valley and among the Catskills in this
vicinity, tells the following bit of his ex-
perience among the 'rooral deestricts."
1t was in Sbandaken, where he had
raised his umbrella and planted his
camp-stool in field in which was
magnificent tree covered by beautiful
vine that he wanted to make study of.
He had been intent on his work of MAX
ing sketch of the vine-covered tree for
some time, when he noticed that man
with yoke of oxen had entered the field
and was blowing seemingly unconcerned
as to him, while the people at the house
seemed much concerned at sight of man
under an umbrella working away at some
mysterious labor. After the plowman
had made circuit of the field several
times his curiosity became excited, and
he walked up to him and without word
looked over the artists shoulder for a
time, and then raised his head and voice
and called to his 'wimmin folks who
were streaming across the field to learn
what was going on: Needn't come;
faint nothin;' and then walked back to
his pillow and resumed his work, while the
females returned to the house with their
curiosity allayed."

A Libelous Clergyman.

An English clergyman was sued lately
at the Wells assizes for $4,000 damages
for sending postal card to one of his
parishioners accusing him of forgery.
This was one of series of cards which
the rector had sent to his parishioners
in which he called them perjurers. Once
he locked the door from the outside
when vestry meeting was being held,
and those attending it had to escape by
the window. In consequence of these
acts the church was deserted, except by
his own family and the churchwarden,
and it was arranged by the Bishop of
Exeter that the accused should absent
himself for three years, but when Corn
wall became separate See he returned,
as Bishop Temple was no longer his do
cesar. His Pensioners have at length
subscribed to prosecute him for libel,
and the jury awarded one of them 81 600
damages.

The AntonelIi Scandal.

Signor Tamburlini who was engaged
for many years about the person of the
late Cardinal Antonelli, as Chamberlain,
has recently given testimony in favor OF
the claims of the Countess Lambertini.
He stated that whenever his master was
expecting to be visited by lady, he
used to say to his valet, Angelo, | am
unwell to-day, do not let any one see
me-" Tamburlani confessed that it was
a long time before he discovered the true
meaning of Cardinal Antonelli's frequent
illness; but the moment he was shown
the portrait of the Countess Lambertint's
mother, he recognized her as the lady
who often visited the Cardinal in the
Vatican. The Roman correspondent of
the Baster Ndchrichten states that the
Deputy Tajani, who is counsellor for the
Cardinals reputed daughter, was in
formed by Cabinet Minister that the
Pope had written a letter to the King
of Italy, entreating him to use his power
to arrest the disreputable and damaging
case. The King is said to have replied
that he was not in position to influence
the course of the law.

JOSEPH HART, young man at Fond
du Lac, was killed Wednesday by being
run over by a freight train, on the G. &
n. w. 4. r., at that place. He attempt
ed to jump from one car to the other af-
ter the train had been disconnected for
switching, and fell between the cars and
under the wheels. The Commonwealth
says: A remarkable fatality seems to
follow this unfortunate family. As
stated elsewhere, the husband of the
widow whose son was killed by this acct
dent, met the same fate in similar man
ner several years ago. Her sisters child,
son OF Barney McDermott, living in
the next house, was killed by the same
swltch-engine few years ago, and anoth-
er child, girl, had her feet crushed by
the cars, necessitating amputation of
both her limbs just below the knees"
FIVE PERSONS, named respectively
Fred Mantz, confined for burglary,
Frank Henderson and los ST. Clair,
each TOR burglary, Charley Ross, bur-
glary OF richardson's watch and money,
ana James Doyle, escaped from Jail in
Waukesha, Thursday night. There were
nine prisoners confined, four making no
attempt at escape. One OF the latter,
German cripple, makes the statement
that a female prisoner furnished the 9TH
ers with an iron towel-roller, and the
supposltlon is that when the turnkey,
VIM. Wood, entered to lock up the pris-
oners Tor the night. he was struck with
the IRON and his revolver taken. With
the former they unlocked the doors and
escaped, and none have since been cap
tured. The sheriff offers $3.50 reward
tor the return of Henderson, Ross and
st. Clair. The blow inflicted on the
turnkey Is frightful one, and his death
IS momentarily expected. The whole
village is aroused, and the people are
securing the country in every direction.

LATE FOREIGN ADvICES.

LONDON, September 14.-At length
news has arrived of the assault on
Plevna, and it has been partially success
full. The Russians chose Tuesday for
the attack because it was fete day of
the Emperor. During the previous four
days they had poured into the works a
rain of iron which would suffice to buy
the whole place if it were sold at it's real
value. From daybreak till 3
o'clock Tuesday they continued the
cannonade, and then began an as
sault. Fighting lasted till evening, and
It ended in the capture of three redoubts
on the southern front, which were taken
by Gen. Skobelef, and the great redoubt
of Gravitza, which fell into the hands of
Gen. Rediohaf. The position of Gravit-
Ia was believed to be by far the strong
est point of defense, and almost, indeed
the key of Plevna. Now that it has been
captured, thene can be little doubt
that the town itself will soon
be untenable, if indeed it has not already
surrendered. The storming parties cap
tured five guns and two standards, but
with terrible loss on the part of the as
sailants, as the commander of the regi-
ment was killed, and a General and
5000 men were wounded. The number
of dead had not yet been reckoned at the
time of the dispatch of the telegram.
STRENGTH OF PLEyNA.
The experienced military correspond.
ents OF the Times and Daily Neq0s, after
witnessing the attack Tuesday, arrived
at the same conclusion, that Plevna must
be taken by gradual approaches. The
former, writing from Russian headquar-
tiers under date of Wednesday morning,
appears to have been still unaware of any
decided Russian successes, for he says
" The Emperor and Grand Duke Nicholas
were on the battlefield until nine last
night. The Emperor returned to head
quarters near Paredin last night. The
battlefield of the last five days is
silent this morning. There is
talk of submitting the Turkish
position to a regular siege and sapping
up the redoubts while close blockade
is instituted with the intent to starve
Osman Pasha's forces. The villages en-
closed within Osman Pasha's line
are full of supplies for the
simple wants of the Turkish
soldiers, and the fields groan with heavy
crops of maize. The losses this
morning are spoken of here as
about 5000 to 5000, but there
are no details. The Emperor this morn
ing has gone back to the battle field to
visit his soldiers. Unless this position of
affairs is shortly changed by decided Rus
sian success, the event of the campaign
will turn on the movements of Niche
met"
