Cumberland County.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week
A little colored boy named Cole, a bout
eleven years old, was thrown off horse
on Tuesday of last week, near the new
paper mill, at Mt. Holly. The horse fell
and rolled on him, and when the lad
was picked up he was dead. 1t is sup
posed his neck was broken in the fall.
Mrs. Mary Lenhar, of Shippensburg,
wife of George Lenhar, who for many
\ years followed putting in pumps in this
)county and who will be recollected by
many of our citizens, has just received
the papers giving her pension. This
lady was quite poor. The pension
reaches back to 1862, over 16 years, which,
at So per month, foots up the snug sum
Of between 81 900 and 81 200. The claim
was for the death of her son, Nicholas.
who was killed at the battle of Antietam.
Sentinel.
Last Wednesday man who gave his
name as Brinson, of Carlisle, outraged
Mrs. Balm, while she was lying sick in
bed at her residence in the Ninth Ward,
The villain gained an entrance to the
house under the plea of selling stationa-
ry, and after making some indecent
proposals to the helpless woman, which
she rejected, he proceeded to effect his
purpose. Her cries brought assistance
from the neighbors who captured the
wretch. He was taken before Squire
Meyers, who committed him. A team
was in his possession which is supposed
to have been stolen. 1t is in the keep
ing of the Ninth Ward constable.
On Monday morning, while Mrs. Geo.
w. Souders, of Roxbury, was on her
way toward Churchtown, she was at
tackled by tramp, who was sitting
under tree, at the cross roads, below
Bowman IS farm. Without any provo
cation he got up and threw two large
stones through the top of the carriage
Fortunately Mrs. S. and her son escaped
injury. About half an hour later the
tramp started toward Churchtown,
passing some harvest hands, who asked
him whether he was the man who had
some trouble with woman down the
road. He then began to curse them,
saying If they were not careful he would
stone them.
Paris green has bad effect not only
upon potato bugs, but it makes men
sometimes feel decidedly uncomfortable.
Thomas Kean, had sore finger, and
went to work among his potatoes, upon
which he had put Paris green, to kill
potato bugs, and some of the poison got
into the sore, and inflamed it so as to
completely disable him for work. DIR.
Koontz dressed the hand and Thomas is
improving.
Michael Morrette was poisoned in a
similar manner, and had a very sore
hand which was lanced and dressed by
his son DIR: j. A. Morrette. In this case
the poison is said to permeate the whole
system. The experience of Messrs. Kean
and Morrette should be warning to all
persons having anything to do with
Paris green. Too much care can not be
taken in handling the poison.

a MUSICAL HIT.

One OF the most pleasant organizations now
existing in the city is one without name, COM
posed entirely OF ladies, with cultivation in
music as Its primary object. The scheme origi-
mated with Miss Lizzie 4. Eldrcd several months
since The ladies give musical matinscs fort
nightly in the elegant music-room at the resi-
dcnce OF Miss Eldred. At these matinees only
those directly interested In the organization are
expected to be present. Set programmes, neat
u written out, are prepared for each matinee,
and the numbers embraced therein strictly ad-
hered to. Occasionally, to relieve monotony, an
essay on music is intcrspersed by way OF variety.
The fair muses., under the plan adopted, become
performers and audience in rapid succession,
and, lnasnauch as demonstrations OF satisfaction
are not forbidden, it is to be presumed that
lively cncores by clapping Of hands and stamp
ing OF dainty feet are Of frequent occurrence
during each entertainment The fourth Of these
delightful matlnees occurred yesterday after

Thus has ended the County Hospital investica-
ton, at least for the present. But conversation
with certain members Of the Board indicates
that trouble is still brewing, and will break out
when the nominations Of the doctor arc handed
in for confirmation. In the opinion Of these
Supervisors DR.. Day is incompetent for the posi-
tion,-incapacitatcd BY advancing years, and
they will demand i change. There seems TO be
no doubt that he will retain Mr.. and Mrs. Doran,
and it seems to be equally self-evident that the
Board will not coutirm them. AS Tor Carl

cook, against whom terms Of intimacy were
charged, they will leave OF their own accord, it

action OF some members Of the Committee, aud
