JOHN G. WHITTIER's objection to the
Democratic party is the suppression by
fraud and violence of the vote of the
colored citizens of the Southern states. -
If Mr.. Whittier would fairly investigate
the facts, instead of taking the malig-
nant Misrepresentation of partisan poll
ticians he would find there is more real
suppression of the votes Of citizens of
Massachusetts and Rhode Island than in
South Carolina or Louisiana, where the
reign of law and order and free franchise
has been contemporaneous with Demo-
cratic state government. If such laws
as govern in New England were enforc-
ed against the negro in the South we
would he virtually disfranchised; but it
has always been characteristic of New
England philanthrophy that it strained
at gnats below Mason and Dixon line and
swallowed camels in Puritan land.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT,

A hoy Falls on u Circular Saw-Has His
Arm Cnt OH and His Chest Cut
Through Almost to the Heart.
Yesterday afternoon a terrible accident
happened at the Anchor bending works OF
Jacob Fetter & Co., 113 South Queen
street, by which William Fetter, i ten-year-
old son of the senior member of the firm,
will probably lose his life. In the lower
story of the works is a circular saw set in
table of tine ordinary height, the upper
circumference of the saw protruding about
five inches above the surface Of the table.
This saw is run by steam. but was not in
use at the time Of the accident. The men
employed in the establishment were at
work up stairs. Young Fetter and Il boy
named August Hess, aged II years we've
down stairs. Hess's duty was to watch
the glass gauge attached to the boiler,
and keep the water at the proper
height. Young Fetter appears to have
been sitting or lying on the table alongside
the saw, and Hess was playing with him.
In some manner not explained the lever
that throws the betting in and out Of gear
was moved so as to set the saw in motion.
1t revolves with immense rapidity. Young
Fetter's right arm came in contact with it
and in an instant was almost completely
severed. He then appears to have fa'-
len forward on the saw, which cut through h
his clothing and diasonally into his right
breast, penetrating the body not less than
five inches cutting into the lung and
reaching almost to the heart. In
his efforts to save himself the boy threw
forward his left arm and it too, struck the
saw and was cut half way through be-
tween the wrist and elbow. The saw
was stopped as soon as possible, the boy
carried into the house and Drs. Carpenter
and BOlenius were sent for. They examined
and sewed up the gaping wound in his
body and dressed his left arm. The right
arm, which is held to the body by a few
shreds only, will be amputated in case the
boy rallies sufficiently to warrant it. At
noon to-day the sufferer was alive but in a
very precarious condition. The accident
created intense excitement in the neigh
borhood, and much blame is thrown ON
Hess the older boy, who is a cousin of
young Fetter, for allowing the latter to
be on the table so close to the saw.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
Large Barn, Tobacco House and Other
Buildings Destroyed.

Large Barn, Tobacco House and Other
Buildings Destroyed.
Yesterday afternoon about 90 clock, the
large barn. 1OOx6O feet in diameter, ON the
farm of Jacob Rohrer, Bunker Till, Stras
burg township, was set on fire and entire
ly destroyed, together with all its contents,
consisting of the crops of hay, wheat,
oats, &C., recently harvested, wagons, car
riages, farming implements, harness, &C.,
&c. All the live stock was saved except
two calves, and they perished in the
flames.
From the barn the flames spread to the
large tobacco house and it too was de-
stroyed, together with the tobacco stored
in it. The carriage-house, cOrn-cribs,
sheep-hOuse, hos-pen, and indeed every
building on the farm except the dwelling
house, were destroyed, and had not the
house been covered with slate roof it
too would have been burned. A great
many fruit trees in the adjoining orchard
were scorched and ruined by the heat.
The loss will probably reach $1,000 or
$4,000.
1t is thought the barn was set on fire by
a tramp, as a man was seen to walk away
from the barn short time before the fire
broke out.
It is said that several tramps who were
found lettering in the neighbOrhOOd were
arrested and placed in the Strasburg lock-
up for hearing.
