The Supreme Court Of Indiana holds
that the occasional drinking of glass
of ale, wine, or whisky by man who
is not in the habit OF becoming intoxi-
Gated, does not constitute such ilnmor-
atty or unfitness as would preclude an
applicant from obtaining license to re-
tail intoxicating liquors. In support of
this view, the Court quoted the Scriptu-
raj texts: "The Lord causeth to grow
the wine that maketh glad the heart of
man, "Q04 Psalm, 18th verse.) "Drink
no longer water, but use little wine
for thy stornachs sake, and thine often
infirmities," CTim., 18th verse.)

Singular sszaI Mysterious Attempt
10 Poison.

On Thursday Of last week, 18th Of
February, n strange man put in his ap-
perancc at keedysville, who told per-
sons there that his name was 7. Kelley
and others L. NJ. Flynn, and in Boons-
boro' he subsequently represented him,
self to be T. O'Reiley. He was al Ilish-
man, about 20 years old, or less, with
long hair and beard, pretty well clad,
except as to bis cap, which was of old
gray cloth and somewhat d,iapidated.
He was very garulous and sociable and
made himself quite free and easy among
the people Of Keedysvile, great many
of whom in the town as well as others
in the ueighhorhood he was quite ia
miliar with by name. He represented
himself to be son Of one of the con-
tractors who built that portion of the
Washington County Railroad, and said
he had been employed under his father,
on the road, at that time. This story
was varied by others Of a contradictory
character, and i'll the course Of his
loquaciiy, he represented himself to
civil engineer, restaurant keeper in
Washington city, merchant, cattle
dealer from the West, and nearly every
thing that can be imagined. He drank
some, but was not 'Grunk" in keedys-
vile, during his stay there.
The saloon of heedysville, in the
house of Rolly Domer, short distance
from the railroad, is kept by Geo II.
Nield, a young man of about 81 years
and native of that place, and has been
kept by him for about six years Dur
ing the afternoon, Kelley, as we shall
call the stranger, went into the saloon
and made himself very free with his
tongue, among other things asked Nield
if be was not Michel, who was Domer's
bar-keeper when the railroad was being
built. As Nield was then about lG
years of age, and Michel who actually
did keep the bar at that time was then
50 years of age, Nield laughed at the
strange conceit, bat Kelley insisted he
was the man, and upon his denying it
said he was a liar. Nield treated the
matter as joke and took no notice of
the insult, and Kelley persisted in re-
garding him as Michel, adding that he,
Michel, had maltreated him when he
was engaged on the railroad.
TIE fact is, as we learn from citizens
of Keedysyille, that Nickel, who was
kind of athlete aud had travelled with a
circus, did, at different times, give
couple OF the hands working on the
railroad tremendous clubbing, and it
is surmised that Kelley may have been
one of those two men. Geo. w. Kelley,
who keeps a confectionery in Keedys
vile, says he recognized the stranger as
one of the men who used to be working
about that place when the railroad was
being built, and all the circumstances 60
to show that this old grudse was rank
ling in him yet.
Leaving the saloon the strange man
ioafed about the town, and going to the
warehouse OF Mr.. Keedy got from some
of the hands some apples which Jacob
Keedy had been selling that day, and
gave some of them away to different
persons, who ate them. "A little before
8 o'clock, that night. he again dropped

been noised about for days that John
Gaus, one of the Greenback members Of
the Legislature from Lycoming Co., was
to be hung in efligy by the Nationals of
that township. During the campaign
last fall Gaus in his speeches and in
private conversations, asserted that "a
man who would go back upon bis con-
stituepts ought TO be hung to the first
lamp post" He also gave his word 10
adhere to the following:
"This is TO certify that John Gaus,
candidate for the Legislature, pledged
his word and honor that if elected he
will not vote for J. Don Cameron for
United States Senator, and that he will
vote for the Greenback caucus nomi-
nee"
Under these circumstaEces-the tact
standing out in bold relief, that Gaus
voted for Don Cameron, it was resolved
to land the political Arnold down to
future generations in his true light, aud
teach public men that the people are
not to be betrayed without the wrong
being resented, Accordingly, the pre-
paralons for the execution were Per-
tec,ed, and on the night mentioned the
citizens OF Armstrong turned out IN
force, the multitude swelled by dcliga-
