WAsUINaroN, Novcwbcr 12 1878 -
The action of the Cabioc: to-day in instruct.
ing the Attorney General to prosecute al
cases in tho South or elsewhere arising out
OF violation Of the law as to the presence
OF federal supervisors at tho voting for
Cangressmon is seized upon by tho "stal-
w,rts" Us evidence thas thcy have converted
the President to their view Of the political
situation. They boldly declare to oight
that tln President has made II "nop" and
has abandoned tho 2o~callcd Southern pol
icy aud came over into their ranks. The
visit of Mcssrs. Hnck Chandler and Don
Cameron at the White House this morning
is ciaimud to be connected With this alleged
important change in Mr.. Hayes policy.
The argument Of the "stalwnrta' is that,
with nearly two hundred instances in the
South Of q violation Of this law, vigorous
prosecution Of tho offenders by the United
States law officials will make more evident
than ever the incorrginlc and irrcconcilaolo
character of the Democratic Bourtons Of
that region, and prove that the solid South
will be found to exist even in the Jury box,
whence the conviction Of an offender will
never issue. This isa very large caiice,
however, to build upon so simple founla
ton as the Presidents determination to
enforce the law. =,

The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1878-10-23

Yesterday morning the boiler Of
the mill at Red Hot, on Big Coon
creek, blew up, injuring Mr.. Elmer
Lacy quite seriously, and Cyrus Muir
ply slightly. The boiler went through
the side of the mill, and sailed through
the air, lighting on the side hill, twen-
ty rods distant, and at a point twenty
five feet higher than the point from
whence it started. Mr.. Lacy was
thrown into the air about twelve feet,
and alighted with his back across one
of the rails of the carriage track, in.
juging his spine severely. He was also
scalded on one arm and one leg. Muir.
ply was hit between the eyes by some
flying object, and cut slightly. Mr..
Lacy will have tedious time before
he RECEIVERS. DR.. Blaine, who was
called, furnishes us the above particu.
lars. Murphy, -tss engineer, AYERS
that there were three gauges of water
in the boiler when it exploded. 9th.
ers about the mill say that tha boiler
was dry, or nearly SO, and that Muir.
ply turned on a cold stream of water,
which caused the explosion.
BY notice in another column, it
will be seen that Governor Hartranft
and some other distinguished gentle.
men are to arrive in town next Mon
day afternoon. 1t is proper and right
that this party should be met and wei.
coined in spirit which will show how
highly their services to the State and
Nation are appreciated by the people.
Our County Chairman is making all
necessary preparations to receive them
in q manner becoming their position
and worth, and it is net to be supposed
that he will lack the assistance of our
citizens of every party. Let all turn
out, also, in the evening, to hear the
views of our Governor and also those
Of the Soldier and the Statesman who
accompany him. Mr.. Davis, we be-
lieve, has secured tho services of q
brass band, to furnish music for the
occasion. Turn out, everybody, and
do honor to the Chief Executive Of the
Commonwealth.

We are panied to learn of the
sudden and violent death of Joseph
McCray, formerly of this section,
which occurred near Clear Lake, Polk
Co., Wis, on the 9th inst. From the
account of the accident, published in
the Wisconsin Ne1Os, We extract the
following particulars: Itappears that
Joseph and two brothers, Chauncey
and Wesley, were in clearing camp,
and on the morning Of the accident
the deceased took his gun and started
of, stating that he would be back be-
fore evening. He had not been gone
long before his brothers heard the re.
port of gun, and Immediately after
an agonized cry. They ran in the d.
rectiOn of the sound, and found him
lying on the ground, with a frightfnl
wound in his side. When he saw
them, he said, 81 have killed myselfF'
They carried him to camp and sent for
medical assistance. He informed them
that at the time of the accident he
was on top of stump, looking over
some land he was thinking of buying,
and had his hand on the muzzle of the
gun, while the stock rested on the
stump; the gun slipped and the ham
mer struck the side Of the stump, dis
charging the gun, and lodging the
whole charge of shot into his right
side, large portion Of which went
through between the ribs, and lodged
in the trunk. He took off his amuni-
tion and his coat, which was on fire
and sxtinguished the Gre, and then
started for camp, sinking down when
his brothers found him. He died
about six o'clock the same evening.
He was "a years of age, and was son
of Samuel McCray, who settled and
cleared the farm now owned by Fitz-
gerald's, two miles below this place.
Joseph will be remembered by many
in eur place as pleasant, steady, and
companiOnGble young man. When
about here, he made his home at Eli
HOleman's.

On Wednesday afternoon, 18th inst,
David Thompson, Of Pinegrovo town
ship, Venango Co., attempted to COM
NIT suicide by shooting himself He
has been ailing for about year, and
has been treated for consumption by
several physicians in that locality.
About two weeks ago he seemed some
what deranged, and made several
strange threats, when on the above
date he determined to "shuffie off this
mortal coil" His father was out in
the field, husking corn, and his mother
was attending to household duties,
when she was startled by the report OF
gun, and upon entering tho room,
found the would-be suicide, snugly
covered up in bed. Further examipa-
tion showed that ho had hidden the
gun in the bed before lying down. The
ball entered about midway between
the chin and throat, passed up through
the tongue, roof of the mouth, and
lodged just below the brain and back
of the left eye. DR.. France, of Fry.
burg, was summoned,> but could dc
nothing to relieve him. He is at pres
ent writing, still living, but is unable
to swallow anything. He will un.
doubtedly die, not from the effects OF
the shot, but for want of food and
drink. This ought to be a warning to
all who contemplate committing sui.
eide.
John L. McGraw, of McG Graw Cen
ter, Warren Co., Was out fishing, on
Wednesday afternoon, 18th inst, in
company with Dewitt Waldo, near
Eagle Rock, when he suddenly became
dizzy, and fell from a rock about nine
feet high, on which he was sitting,
striking his head upon q rock which
lay little out Of water. At the time,
Waldo was four or five rods distant,
and by the time he reached McGraw,
he found him dead. His body was
sent to his home (McGraw Center) for
interment.

Il Must Lie Down and Die"

The following is an extract from letter
dated July 21, 1877, to the discoverer Of
Bethesda Water. The writer is the Rev.
t. B. Fuller, D. D., d. G. L., Rector of ST.
Gregory's Church, Toronto, Archdeacon Of
of Niagara, etc., etc. The writer, at the
age OF 60 years was victim of iSacchdriHe
Diabetes. His physician said Ito use DR..
FulleI's words) "he could do no more for
me than he had done; that my disease was
incurable, and that must lie down and
die" I'VE should state hero, e1I pGrenthe-
sis, that our townsman, Joseph Fleming,
Esq, is the sole and only authorized agent
for this wonderful water for this State, as
well as for Ohio and West Virginia.l To
return to DIR. Fuller: "In four days." he
writes, latter taking the Water, I obtained
relief, and since that time have taken no
medicine, consulted no medical man, and
presume, if could give myself reasonable
rest, would be quito we'll"
Such testimony, from such a source,
should indeed have convincing weight.

mors of errors, or abnses. or corruption

are circulated with all the industry which par
tisan zeal inspires. The officers are pursued
with bitter, relentless abuse. Their motives
are impugned. their acts criticised in spirit

would show the matter in its true light, and
the certainty that the time would come when

Ii there had been error the cause, the extent

Ii there had been corrupt exercise Of power,

An examination of the constitutions, written
or unwrtten OF every country which has rep
resentstive assembly, will show that without a
single exception as the committee believes,
save only Ia the United States, the executive
ministers either themselves. or by an author
lied substitute, have voice in its delbera-
tons. The early journals of Congress also
show that it was no unusual thing for members
of the Cabinet to appear in the House Of Rep
resentatives and make explanations concerning
the business of their departments. On the 22d
of January, 1889, the Secretary of state, Mr.
Jefferson, ATTENDED agreeably to order, and
made necessary explanations. On the 22d Of
August, 1889, ''the Senate again entered on
executive business. The President of the
United States came into the Senate Chamber,
attended by General Knox, Secretary of War,
and laid before the Senate the following state
ment of facts, with the questions thereto an
nexed. for their advice and consent" .Numer-
ous other instances of the attendance of the
Secretary of War: and of other Cabinet Minis
