The ALLEGED WEST VIRGINIA WIFE
MrEDERER--A dispatch from Charleston,
W. Va, to the Cincinnati Enquirer, fur
nshcs some particulars in regard to the
case OF DR.. Cooper, OF Roane county, who
has been arrested on the charge Of wife
murder The dispatch states that DR.. w.
+. Cooper, the party accused, lives ut
Three Forks OF Reedv, near the edge OF
kanawha county, where lie has resided for
fifteen Years. He is Il physician OF some
practice, and Is known as q man OF violent
temper, especially when Intoxicated. DR..
Casio, OF jackson county, was called in
consultation to sec Cooper's wife, when
Cooper said she was suffering with cere-
bro-spinal meningitis. DR.. Casto's suspi-
cions We're aroused by the careless treat
mcnt Of the patient at the hands Of her HIS
band, and OF his failure to discover the
symptoms Of said disease. At the time he
said nothing, but believed that the symp-
toms indicated poison by strychine. Casio
prescribed for the patient, but as soon rs he
left Cooper refused to give the medicine.
When Casio again returned to see the
patient his suspicious were confirmed, and
lie found the patient dying by poison, and
that administered by her husband. The
present Mrs. Cooper was the Doctors third
wife, and it is said both his former wives
died suddenly, under what were at the time
considered very suspicious circumstances.
He is now supposed TO have poisoned all
three OF them. 1t is stated that his second
wife charged him with numbering her when
she was dying.

q
AUGUST 81, 1877.
saturday evening we learned that n fight
Ind occurred at Cascade, In this county, be-
tween some white people and some negroes.
4 hallooniSt was giving an exhibition there,
and. as usual, many people, white and black,
were present. Mr.. Elisha Estes came up
with a lady In charge, and, being unable to
find q seat for her, requested negro to give
up the one he was using. The negro not
complying, Estes enaeavored to force him
10 do so, and then the fight began. Other
negroes came to the assistance OF Estes'S
opponent, and it seemed at first that Estes
was about TO get the worst o! it; but other
white people then interfered, and the ne
groes were beaten of. l could not hear
that any of the white people were Sc
riousiy hurt. One negro was shot in the
leg, and another received a dangerous cut.
Two children OF Mr.. Wesley Powell, who
lives near Withheld, In this county, died
last Thursday under very distressing cir
cnmStanccs. Or. Fl. S. Belt was called in
I, sec them In what seemed no unusual
sickness, and left a prescription for quinine.
Mr.. Powell went for tho medicine, and adj
ministcrcd what was given him at the store
for quinine. and soon after the children
were taken with commissions and died. It
some unaccountRblc mistake the salesman
had given Mr., Powell morpha instead Of
Quinine. Mrs. Powell, who was sick at the
same time, and was prescribed for by DR..
Belt, took some OF the same medicine, and
was saved by the use OF the stomach-pump.
The distress o! Mr.. Pritchett, at whose
store the medicine was bought, is cqualIed
only by that OF the bercayed parents.
Rev. Isaac S. TinSley, OF AppomattoX,
has consented 10 "till out" the unexpised
part Of the pastoral year Of Rev. J. II. Lacy
at New Prospect church, in this county.
MIR. Lacy, who lives in Halifax, has felt
constrained to resign the care OF the church
on account OF its distance from bis home
and 4 feeblencss produced by long-con-
tinucd Illness. >.

tainIy not stand in the way, but the end
might not be so easily reached .as 1t may
seem. In former attempts to negotiate
new treaty the negotiators lost themselves
in barren inquiries into the balance OF trade,
and this probably would be the case II fresh
negotiations were started. 1t is probable
that after some haggling Cana dams would
consent to the introduction OF manufactures
OF States at lower duties than those now
levied, but would extend the same. reduc-
tions on similar commodities to atl parts OF
the world, and the extension Of such re-
duction might be fatal TO the negotiations.
The fears of Americans in this respect are
probably overstrained, even il it were sure
they would not really suffer-"

A New Danger.

FROM the new IOTh liHSs.l
In the carburetter there are defects which
would sustain the individual or the city
government in condemning its USE The
machines are ordinarily constructed 80 as to
hold from twenty-five to one hundred gal
Ions Of naphtha, and in buildings they are, OF
course, situated as. Hear as possible to the
gas-meter. Now, 1t would be thought dam
gero,ls In the, extreme to keep In ones cel-
lar barrel of gunpowder or key Of nitro
glycerine, and yet, il properly protected,
these would be. less hazardous than
similar quantity OF naphtha. Not only
has this latter substance an immense tx
plosire power, but, a slight leak in AGAR
buretter filled with it would speedily
convert ones cellar into an eNtcmporized
mine, needing but the furnace or some
other fire to start it into deadly activity.
More than this, rs naptha yapor is heavier
than atmospheric air, It's tendency when
escaping Isl to seek lower level, and in so.
doing it naturally follows those cold cur
rents in room which in winter have their
outlet through stovesa and tireplaces. When,
in addition to this, it is said that, as an eX-
pIosiye compound, mixed with atmospheric
air, one part OF naptha vaDor is equal to ten
parts Of street gas, it will at once be seen
that, from its nature and tendency, this
material is in no way suited for ordinary
use. 81. b. ....-' - ,.....
