Washington township presents some rather in.
teresting features geographically, Fogles Run
rises east Of the centre, and flows south through
the beautiful valley in the eastern part Of Paris
township, and empties into the Sandy at Oneida,
in Carroll county. Black Stream rises west Of the
centre, and flows south through the valley in the
western part of Paris township, through Osnaburg
township, and emptles into the Sandy at Waynes'
burg. The Nmishillen rises in the western part
and flows west. Beech Creek rises north Of the
centre, and flows a northerly course and empues
into the Mahoning River with that into the Ohio,
going almost around the township in which it
rises Thus we have four nice streams rising near
the central part Of the township, flowing in oppo
site directions, and all getting into the Ohio
River.
This township was represented at the county

has improved the breed of service in this section
completely routing the black species so generally
kept some years back. Come and see Mr.. LIS

will get out OF the notion of raising Sharp shoot

Cution, and I. c. Myer and W. ]. Pero for defence,
The following is portion of the testimony: The
first witness for the prosecution was Josiah Bolen
der. Reside in 4th ward. A little after eleven
o'clock in the evening of the 14th Of March my
wife walked me and said she heard a noise about
the house. Thought heard awhistle and looked
out ofthe up stairs window but saw no one staid
up or 10 minutes. Aboutr1O minutes after IL

dow; wife and both got up and taking lamp and
hatchet went into front room, nothing there, went
down stairs and wife threw open door to parlor
and said, "My Cod there's man with revolver
in his hand )" didn't know the man; jumped on
him aud struck him on the head with fiat of hatch
ct telling him to lay still and put up revolver
Man struggled, but finally threw him down and
he said my God, don't kill me-" Said he was
BOerners son and had taken morphine to have a
tooth drawn. Policeman came told him to be
careful he had revolver; policeman said, 81
know that, he's been swinging 1t around up
town"
On cross examination said did not miss any
thing, no damage was done except breaking Of
window where defendant climbed in.
Mrs. Bolender's testimony was substantially the
same.
Officer Eddeman said helped to make arrest
defendants revolver contained four empty and
three loaded chambers.
On defence DR.. Douds testified to having ex.
tracted tooth for defendant on the evening of
the 18th.
DR.. Brant said defendant was brought to his of
flee by policeman about o'clock badly cut up.
Menias Bolender said he saw BOerner at his

told him he had been at Lipperts that some one
had coaxed him along and put him through the
window.
Florin Rose said-Was returning from dance

Miss Lippert said--Defendant had been at their

went away.
Court then adjourned until Monday afternoon,
when after the case was argued his honor the
Mayor held defendant in the sum of $500 to ap.
pear before the Common Pleas Court, which was
promptly furnished.
1t is proper to say that Boerner is young man
of whom we know no harm, and whose family
are highly respectable, Bolender inflicted a
number of very ugly and painful wounds upon
him but none were dangerous. One very severe
one on the head, one on the left shoulder and one
on the hand besides several smaller ones.

srhs nArly estimates OF the New York
SIM in regard 10 the probable number OF
d--.a.h.ckers, Nationals and Workingmen
eho Scuad be returned to the next Con-
rrr.s. are likely to be verified almost liter
ssiv. As between the two great parties,
the only chance to elect outside candidates
was BY Q fusion such as was recently seen
in Maine, Iowa and Indiana, in all Of
which States the Republicans were beaten
on their own ground, aud where they were
especially strong in majorities md in long
possession. A similar experience may be
expected next month in several States but
when the results shall have been summed
up, 1t will be found that the whole indie
peudent force will not hold the balance OF
powcr in the new House. or even approach
IL Thus far but two genuine working
men, Gillette, Of Iowa, a brickmaker,
and Murch, of Maine, a stone mason, have
been elected to Congress. However de-
luded they may be in regard to the fnan-
cial question, about which much more
conspicuous men arc muddled in mind or
purposely wrong for personal or party con-
siderstions, both are upright, intelligent,
and creditable representatives of honest
labor. They are not likely to sell their
votes to rings, to accept brides for pushing
special legislation, to put their votes in
market for great jobs, to seek places on
committees for corrupt objects, to collide
with claim agents on speculation, or to
trade with the Departments for patronage.
This is what distinguished Senators and
Representatives do, and what we have
faith these worthy mi Of toll will not do.

Husband and wife and Two Sons
Murlered.


vIscENNEs, Ind, Oct. IS.
John d. vacelet, wife and two sons were
murdered last night about two miles south
of this city. Pierre Provost, who lived
with them as farm hand, gave the alarm
to the nearest neighbor, about half a mile
away, at 4 o'clock in the morning. having
come to them in his night clothes, saying in
broken English, They had a hell of a time
over at vacelet's." On going to the house
the n%eighboTs found two sons, aged IA n
l6, in bed, the father lying in the door
way OF an adjoining o and in the next
room the mother in her bed, all dead and
cold. The deed had evidently been done
with an AK, the heads and Threats Of the
victims being gashed and cut by such a
weapon. Two or three bloody axes we're
found. Pro ost is under arrest, and can
give no satisfactory account Of the affair.
He claims to have been attacked by the
murdcrers and escaped, but this is already
proven untrue. Circumstances tonight
are entirely against him. Threats Of
lynching do not seemingly disturb him.
and he preserves an astonishing composure
amid the excitement. The coroner's in
quest was adjourned until tomorrow.

rHE WILL.

The Vanderbilt will controversy, after
having dragged its weary length through
months, growing constantly more tiresome
ana more tedious. has now assumed a
shape Of extraordinary interest. The aged
Commodore had more or less faith in spir-
itualism. We do not understand that the
counsel for the contestant maintain that
this fact is, in itself, sufficient necessarily
to invalidate his will. A great many per-
Sons are s~piritualists. Twenty years 6
no less than sixty members Of Congress
we're believers in spiritualism. Among
them was the noted Abolitionist, Joshua
R. Giddings, of Ohio. On n occasion,
when a brother member Of Congress was
very i'll, Mr.. Giddings came to his room
and said he had received a communication
from the spirits that the gentleman would
not recover: and he insisted On warning
him to prepare for his death. The sick
gentleman beckoned a friend to his side
and whispered in his ear: ''Send that mar
out OF the ROOM Mr.. Giddings left, and
the gentleman got we'll and for many years
afterward occupied q seat on the bench in
Massachusetts,. 1t is something more than
a mere general belief in spiritualism, as we
understand the counsel for the contestant,
that they propose to prove in the Wander
bilt case. The precise point which they
make, if We get at their meaning. is that
Commodore Vanderbilt made his will in
consequence of his belief that he was in
structed by his wife, in the spirit world, to
leave his property just as he did leave it.
Would such a will be valid? That is the
question. 1t is rumored that the testi-
mony going to establish this point which
has already been introduced, will be con-
frmed by other unimpeachable evidence.
II this is true, it may well be doubted
whether Mr.. vanderbilt's will may not ul-
timately be set aside.
