Special Dispatch to the Register.
ZANEsvILLE, o. March 8.
A sad accident occurred at Concord, IN
the eastern part of this county, this (Sun-
day) afternoon, which resulted IN the
death of Mr.. Samuel Harvey, highly
respected citizen of the place. A great
religious excitement has prevailed
through this section of country this
winter, and Mr.. Harvey became
much affected thereby. His religious
convictions became so strong as to be a
mania with him-always talking to and
e1horting those with whom he came in
contact. This afternoon he was stand
ing at the head OF a stairway in his resi-
dence, and was performing series OF
religious gesticulations, vocifersting loud
", when he was observed to suddenly
pitch forward. He fell to the bottom Of
the stairs, striking kis head with terrific
force and dslocating his neck. His sud-
den and tragic death creates deep
gloom IN the community. II.

PARKERsBURG, March 2.
An exciting contest on the question OF
granting licenses for the sale OF intoxi-
eating liquors for the ensuing year in the
city of Parkersburg, closed to-day. The
City Council, as I have heretofore in
formed you, submitted the question to q
direct vote of the people, and March I'd
was fixed for the election. The
vote is all in and has been
counted, and stands: For license, four
hundred and one (40D; against license,
Seven hundred (7OO). Majority against
license, three hundred and ninety-nine
1891. This is an overwhelming verdict
against the trafc in intoxicating bever-
ages. For the past ten days, the city has
been in fever OF excitement on the SUBJ
iect, and now that the contest Is ended
the friends OF temperance are jubilant.
The jury in the case of John Dieterich
rendered their decision yesterday evening,
alter a thorough investigation, that the
deceased came to his death bya pistol
shot fired by his own hand.
Five prisoners brought TO our Jail for
safe keeping from Pleasants county were

OF the Register.
BALTIMORE, March |, 1875

sS'S'
During the month OF February our
market for Ohio tobacco has shown but
little activity compared 10 the large ssles
affected in January; the total sales em-
brace only 200 hhds., sold principally 20
manufacturers. The stock Of old tobacco
in fret hands 10 reduced now 10 about
1900 hhds.
We are glad 10 inform you that, &C
cording TO cable dispatch just receiysd,
the intended change OF the tar on tobsc-
co in Germany has met with much op,
position in the German Parliament, aud
has finally been voted down, and conse.
quently there will be no change made In
h tax for this year. -r iay
In anticipation Of higher tar being
levied, many Of the principal manuisc.
turers in Germany have laid in full
supply, hence II is likely that the ter.
man markets will open later than usuAl.
Italy has invited proposals for tho tot,
loving tobacco contracts: 1900 hhds
Ohio and Maryland, 1900 hbds Ken.
tIcky, and 100 hhds Virginia. g...
The contrac, for Ohio and Msryisbd
will be awarded on the lst OF April. and
for kentucky aud Virginis on Che Let OF
May. The proportions Of Ohio sod
Maryland. and further particulars arc
not known vet.
We would advise our friends 10 hsve
all the better grades, such - fns red snd
spangled tobacco, well 9uAlined and
held back until jsLer in the season. And
IL some OF the common and medium
grades are forwarded now, care should
De taken 10 have them in good keeping
| condition. e1
As the new crop Is Of very good quail.
i.y. and no, large, we think u will meet
with ready ssle, a. soon - ail the mar
kets open. =
The total Inspections Of Ohio up 10
date are 3Tl hhds the tobacco - far ..
received, has been 10 lair order. .'E
Yours truly,
