Gains from the Panic.
tnca Herald

Looking caudidly ut tho business sit
pared with onr condition before tho
great panic of 1873, ono must bo blind
indeed who cannot sec TINT we arc an'
tually the gniners by that panic. There
has been much individual suffering, but
il is swallowed M in the general good.
Let the GrcenbnCkeI compare tho pur.
chasing power Of the money he has to-
day with TIA, before the panic, and he
will find himself better off, notw!thstand-
ing the difference in the prices his crops
are bringing. Let him contrast the diff
ference between the governmental
methods in matters Of finance, If he
would fairly estimate the general gain.
Before the panic we were plllng up debt
everywhere, in towns, counties, cities,
states For ak years wo have made no
new debts, and have paid many old
ones In New York, the state Tux IL
one-half what il was in 1872, and local
taxes, If they have not decreased IN
like degree, have shrunk in every di-
recton. An unhealthy, unnatural, and
speculative tendency, that had found
lis way into every variety of business,
has entirely disappeared. The newt
able rebound from the business depres-
sion il already penetrating throughout
the country. When il reaches ils lcgit-
innate expansion, the commercial con-
dtion Of the United States will BIO
incomparably superior to that OF any
nation on the globe.

A CLOSE CALL.
Edward Hogan Loses u Leg.

Yesterday afternoon, as the mail
train going east, on the c.. & A.
railroad, Bass Moore, conductor, and
j. Wetton, engineer, was leaving the
depot, on College street, it ran over a
section hand named Edward Hogan
of Roodhouse, cutting his leg off just
below the knee.
1t appears that the passenger trains
on both roads were pulling ont at the
same time, both of them running
lively and making a good deal of
noise. Hogan thought all the noise
was made by the train on the X. c.
& N. railroad, and did not see the
train behind him-the danger whis-
tie was sounded several times and
still he thought it Vas the train on
the other track. He turned around
just IN time to get caught, and he
tried his best to get off the track, but
his left leg was caught and cut off
Just below the knee. Hogan had
lust come from Roodhouse and was
working with an extra gang.
A person cannot be too careful!
when so many tracks lie side by
side, trains RAINING all the time on
each of item. II will be remember
ed that Phil Garner was killed in the
same way. The employees of the
road we're not to blame at all.

From the ST. Louis Times-JournAi
Col. j. +. Hutton, one of our most
polished and conspicuous candidates
for Acknowledgements, has, We re-
greet to learn. suffered a relapse OF his
painful disorder, the hay fever. Two
grievous causes, we understand, pro-
voked this lamentahle relapse, and
they occurred during the recent tenn
perance camp meeting which the Co
lionel addressed in Pike county. The
first was the shock which the colonel
received when he WAS introduced to
the meeting as Mr. Hutton, and the
second was two hours subsequent
when a coarse, unfeeling fellow trod
on one of his corns without ~apologlz-
ing. This is the second relapse of
the hay fever the colonel has had dur
ing the past two months, and it is
feared it will prove fatal TO his po-
litical aspirations.

MOORE,s NEW TRIAL.
while There is Life There il
Hope"

The motion for a new trial in the
case, state of Mo. vs.. Moore, was ar
gued last Tuesday morning and re-
suited in the motion being sustained.
Moore has now been tried twice, the
first time eleven of the jury being for
hanging and the second time a ver-
dict was found Of murder in the first
degree. The time for the new trial
has not been fixed. A great effort
will be made to get a change Of VEN
ne. The principal reason given by
Judge Porter for a new trial was that
he did not think Moore had commit
ted murder in the first degree.
Moore looks very badly but feels
somewhat better.
