H. Baldwin of Monroe City, Ind ,
writes under date Of Dec. Sd, 1877,
that his wife used Dr. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription with wonderful re-
suits. IT effected entire cure, after
several physicians had failed, The
many similar letters positively af-
iilming that the Favorite Prescript-
ION had cured the diseases and weak
uess peculiar to women, induced Dr..
Pierce to sell it under a guarantee.
Ladies need no longer submit to use
less and painful local treatment, as
the Favolite Prescription is safe,
sure and speedy cure. Hundreds
who had been bed-ridden for years
have been restored to perfect health
by its use.

Execution of Saloviaff


ST.. PETERSBURG, June 9.-Alexander Salo-
WEN, who attempted the assassination of the
Gar of Russia on the 14th of April, was
hanged at ten o'clock this morning.
A Crash Averted by a Rise in Cotton.
LONDON, June 9.-The Times financial ar
ticle says the recent rise in cotton at Liverpool
is described doubtless accurately by a cores
centre of commercial inactivity. But for this
relief we are told there must have been a
crash, and nothing more opportune has hap
pened in commercial affairs for a long time
There is no doubt the rise in only transient
and unreal so far as the merits of the staple
are concerned, but it has enabled the banks
and spectators to escape temporarily from a
perilous position, and therefore averted a col
lapse that otherwise seemed inevitable.

TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 10.

again commanded, as he said, to make the of
fering. He did not dare to disobey, and went
back to the house where the babe was sleeping
and his mother watching over him. Not wish
ing to alarm his wife, he waited until she went
out, and then took the child in his arms and
carried it to the potato-patch, having in the
meantime prepared keen knife. Then he wait
ed, like Abraham, hoping that the Lord would
speak to him again and command him some
other Offering, but he received no sign. Then he
became alarmed lest his wife light be watching
and crossing the road went into the woods,
where he laid the child upon some leaves and
again prayed. During the prayer a little dog
ran up to him and shifted about his feet. Sup
posing that, like Abrahams ram, this dog had
been sent by the Lord in place of the child, he
waited to hear voice commanding him to kill
the dog; but no voice said, "Stay thy hand"
and he held the struggling infant while he cut
its throat, and offered up its blood to the Lord.
Then, taking the body in his arms, he bore it
to the house, the blood dripping as he walked,
and laid it upon the bed. His wife, rushing
from the house frantically, told the neighbors,
and we arrested him, as l have said. We took
him to Georgetown that afternoon, and he was
securely lodged in jail to await trial. The trial
occurred the following April and the prosecu-
ton was vigorous. George p. Fisher was attor-
ney-general, and Chancellor Salisbury, then a
promising young lawyer, defended Kitchens
After the State had closed its case, Mr. Sauls-
bury rose to make defense, but was SO over
cumstances that he was unable to continue,
and broke completely down. The court and
jury were also affected, and the latter, without
leaving the box, returned verdict of mot
guilty upon the plea of insanity. Kitchens
was taken to the county alms-house, where he
remained for some time, but was finally dis
charged and returned to his home. Since then
he has lived quietly, and people seem to have
almost forgotten the terrible circumstances.
his wife died soon after he was released from
a lI1NC-
single very long, He courted a Miss Lollis of
this place, and she married him, much to the
surprise of everybody here, and much against
the wishes of her family. When he comes in
to town he mingles freely with people. There
are few traces of insanity in his manners al
though all his movements are abrupt and ner-
vous. Kitchens life is by no means religious
now, and his character is none of the best. No
one has any confidence in him. He lives in
the house where he bore the body of his son af-
ter the tragedy in the woods l believe he
owns the farm upon which he lives, and has al
ways been what is termed in Sussex "good

The Attempt to Gust Kellogg-A Bad
Witness for the Democrats.

The Attempt to Gust Kellogg-A Bad
Witness for the Democrats.
WASHINGTON, June Gin the Spofford-
Kellogg case today Jules Seveignes testified as
follows: Was member of the Packard Leg
islature; was present in the joint convention
that elected kellogg to the Senate and voted
for him.
Mr.. Merrick exhibited to witness an afida-
vit-the latter saying that he wrote it, and that
it bore his signature.
The affidavit was read stating that he was
not present in the legislature in January, 1877,
when Kellogg was elected for the long term,
but voted for him the next day,
Mr.. Merrick-Is this paper true?
Alt is not true
Q-Tell us who lied.
A-The very parties who induced me to
make the affidavit knew it was lie.
Mr. Merrlck-l insist on knowing their
names.
Al won't tell
Mr.. Herman of the COMMUNICATION ought IN
answer the question. "
Al can't answer, because it would impli-
cate other parti eS not interested
Mr. Kernan-We can't help that.
MI Shellabarger suggested that the witness
be told the consequences of not answering.
ject
Mr. kernan-As it is not secret you must
answer.
Witness then gave the name of Drouett.
Mr.. Merrick-We want the names of all
those who induced you to swear what they
knew was lie.
A-There were others without my uncle and
[ am sorry gave his name.
Mr.. Merrick-And you refuse to name the
others?
Mr.. Kernan-Did you say they knew it was
falsehood when you made the affidavit?
A-They know it to be false.
Q-Who are they?
A-That's what decline to answer
Q-What reason can you give for not letting
the world knew who these men are?
Witness, after hesitating, said Cavanac is
another.
Kernan-Who else?
.A-Others wanted me to swear to q lie: they
did not induce me; Thomas Murray and j. w.
Elder were among them.
In reply to Mr.. Hill witness said Cavanac
was present when he wrote the affidavit No
body offered to write it. He wrote it himself.
Q-What was the inducement made to you
previous to writing the affidavit?
Cavanac said I should have everything i
wanted as Kellogg was to be put out of the
| Senate anyhow. Murray said there was
sugar" in it, but did not want me to swear
| falsely.
DeLacy, witness in the Kellogg-Spofford
case, arrested by Spoffords agent, on the

Extensive Forgeries Brought to Light.
NORWAY, June "a. G. Cushman of South
Paris was arrested last Thursday charged
with forging his fathers signature to
a note for $3.50 given to Moses Chesley of Ok
ford. Recent developments have brought to
light several more of the same sort in which
the names of several prominent citizens of
South Paris were forged. Nothing positive is
yet known as to the extent of his villainy or
the length of time during which it has been
carried on. An examination is to be held in a
few days when new light will probably be
thrown on the matter.
Powder Mill Explosion at Warren
WARREN, June 9.-Mr. John F. Young,
