On Sunday last Mr.. David SPOTS, of
Newport, found a scratch on'the neck Of
his child. Further investigation de-
veloped the fact that long needle lay
under the skin on the shoulder with the
point projecting enough to make the
scratch as the child turned its head.
The needle lay full length IN view under
the skin, except the point, but how it
came there, or how long it bad been IN
the child, is question not easily au-
swered. .--Bioomfeid Tunes.

THE plan proposed to settle the Presiden-
tiai muddle does not by any means give the
PresId sncy TO Mr.. Tilden; it only provides
a way TO count the electoral vote in such a
way that the captious men will have to be
satisfied. If Tilden has a majority of the
electoral college he will be declared Presi-
dent of the United States, and as such
must be respected. If Hayes has majority
of the electoral college he will b. declared
President Of the United tates, and as such
must be respected. When the people of
this country oted in November they voted
with only that object in view, and all the
trouble that has existed since has been
caused by the bad men in politics.
The probability is that Hayes will be de-
clared President on a correct count OF the
electoral votes, however, if the claims of
the Democrats be correct, the Commission
ers will reveal them, and so announce the
result.

grove is one that may be easily grad
ed. The work being of such an in
expensive character In railroad max

Cured scarcely anywhere, unless, In
deed, it were in the construction of a
road across prairie lands, yet with
all that inexpensive route the road is
not ready for the ties.
Thousands upon thousands of dol
lars of subscription have been paid,
thousands upon thousands of dollars
of bonds have changed owners as so
many obligations against the com
pany. At the rate at which things
have been driven the conclusion is
nearly reached that before long the
subscriptions will all be exhausted,
and the bonds sold out and no road
built.
The public are told that certain
capitalists are about to take hold of
the enterprise, and to that everybody
says, take it. But the tardiness with
which focus is approached, is rails
ing the inquiry in the community as
to who the men are that are said to
profess so much and do SO little.
Are they the men that they are rep
resented to bel or are they men who
come here occasionally, only person
ating other men7

body who has paid money into the
concern, or who are being sued for

what has been done with the money
that has been paid on subscription,
and what has been done with the
money that the bonds We're scld for.

Notes from East Fayette.
DEATH OF AN AGED CITIZEN.


Mrs. Elizabeth Hostetler, widow Of
the late Jacob Hostetler, died on the
2lst inst, at the residence of her daugh-
ter, Mrs Hannah Crater, in Monroe
township, in the S9th year of her age.
She was a woman of remarkable mem
ory. She remembered incidents that
occurred when she was only six years
of age, and it was quite Interesting to
hear her tell of the many interesting
occurrences that took place In her early
day. She was daughter of the Rev.
j ohm Graybill, who was one Of the fret
settlers in the neigbocrhood of Rich
field, and is we'll remembered by many
of the older ci,i.ens. The funeral of
the deceased was attended by a large
concourse of relative and friends.
RELIGIOUS.
The Dunkards or German Baptists
are holding quite an interesting meeting
at their church at Good Will.
The good work begun by the religious
people of McAlistervilIe and vicinity
during the week of prayer has, We hope,
resulted in much good.

Mr.. Joshua Van Ormer, of East
Fayette, is now in his Slst year, and is
