A Case for the Charitable.
George Laird, whose illness and sadly
destitute condition were mentioned in
these columns Oh Saturday evening, died
about noon to-day, leaving wife utterly
without means of subsistence save through
the charity of ne;ghbors. He lived at 522
Woodward street, and it is stated
by persons who were called
into the house by the bereaved
widow that there was positively nothing
to eat there save half quarter of flour
that had been given to them this morning
by the people who live next door. Friends
of the family are making efforts to raise
money to provide decent burial for the
dead man, and in the name of that God
given virtue of charity, which is greatest
among all virtues, it is hoped that the per-
sons who have started this relief subscrip-
tion will meet with generous reception.

VIM. a. Horton, EsQ. ...
MY DEAR SIR We noticed some time
ago that the citizens of Lancaster are be-
coming interested in astronomy. We have
been SO for many years, but are not salts
fled with an outside look at the stars, and
therefore, avail ourselves of every opportu-
nifty to have an inside or clairvoyant view
of their construction, and other phenom-
ena of interest which the telescope is much
too short too reach. We some time since,
saw an account in one of the papers sent
us, that red spot was observed upon the
disk Of Jupiter, and desiring to know
what it might be or the cause Of it, We
directed the attention of three of our best
clairvOyants here in South Carolina to it,
and they declared that it was large hole
which passed entirely through the planet,
but gave no other particulars, as they were
not versed in astronomy.
Some days after we addressed letter to
Mr.. A. H. Herr, living near Lancaster,
Pa, requesting him, his mother and
sister, to visit the planet clairvoyantly,
and to give me a description of it, &c.
Mr.. Herr, you remember, is the young
gentleman who gave most of the descrip-
tions of the stars published III our work,
"WOrlds Within Worlds :" and we yester-
day received letter from him, stating
that they paid a visit to Jupiter and found
the red spot described by astronomers to
bean immense opening about two miles in
diameter (as near as they could estimate)
which passed entirely through the planet
the walls of which were all of rock. They
found nothing of interest, and no inhabi-
tants inside of the opening.
The most interesting phenomena, how
ever, which they discovered was that an
immense (or heavy current, as he de-
scribed it, passed out of one opening and
into the opposite one on the other side,
and that when they stood upon Jupiter at
his night time they observed a streak of
light about a mile wide across the heavens,
much resembling our Northern lights.
There can therefore be no doubt that
our own earth is also hollow and that a
similar current of electricity creates our
"Aurora BOrealis." Clairvoyance has
already revealed many facts before un-
known, and when it becomes popular and
is practiced by Investigating mi'1is, is des-
tinet: to advance astronomy and to account
for many other phenomena which exist in
the Great Beyond; that. the telescope cannot
reach, and that misguided prejudice
prevents the scientific mind from grasping
as it should. We propose to follow up
the investigation when we return to Ian
caster, and hope to see you by the first of
May. Respectfully,
WM BAKER FAHNEsToCK

1t is with the sncerest regret, and almost
in the light of Democratic calamity, that
we repeat our previous belief that Grant
cannot and will not be nominated at Chi
cage.
And now our dispatches confirm the
reported bolt in the Republican delegation of
Pennsylvania. Manager McMsnus has in
formed Don Cameron that ten of the twelve
Philadelphia delegates will not support
Grant under any circumstances, and that if
he undertakes TO enforce the unit rule de-
cree of the Harrisburg convention the whole
delegation will be arrayed against him. Thus
do we note everywhere the breaking up and
wrecking Of the once powerful boom.

Washburne and Grant.
St Louis Republican

There is no longer any reasonable doubt
that Washburneis tout Of line" ut least in
the opinion Of Drill Master Logan and his
corporals. The Chicago Inter Ocean is ON
inously silent concerning the political atti-
tude Of the ex.M Minister TO France, and his
card denying the charges lately brought
against him found its way TO the public
through the columns Of IN obscure contem-
porary. He accompanied Grant to Spring
field, but did not appear on the platform
with the other notabilities, and now the tele.
graph announces his sudden departure for
Boston. Meanwhile the Chicago journal.
and other Republican papers in Illinois, have
hoisted the Washburne flag and are fighting
valisntly under i.
1t is sad to contemplate this probable rup-
ture between Damon and Pythias, especially
AS Pythiss has heretofore been very impor-
tant spoke in Damon's wheel. Washburne
has claimed to be Grants er-father, so TO
speak, the man who helped him when he
most needed help, and started him on the
road to fame and fortune Grant has recog-
nized the claim and rewarded the claimant,
and no one imagined that these mutually
agreeable and satisfactory relations would
come to an untimely end. We are inclined
to believe that Washburne is the victim OF a
conspiracy; the consprators being certain
shrewd and ambitious Republicans, who have
detected his little game. And an uncom-
monty neat game 1t is, or rather, was. He
was for Grant first, last and all the time"
because Grant had the inside track, and if
nominated and elected would give bis old
friend the choice of the losves and fishes. If
Grant should find himself too weak before
or during the convention, his strength would
be given TO Washburne- which would prob
ably secure the latter's nomination. So
Washburne stood to win at both ends Of the
layout As this did not suit the plans Of
his rivals, they have taken steps to break up
the Damon and Pythias business anc MS
Grant is proverbislly jealous and supiciou',
it is quite likely they have succeeded. AT
any rate the allan, e is not near so cordial us
it was, and if Grant "does his grip at Chi
csgo, it is more than doubtful whether he
will swing his followers to the support Of
Washburne. Perhaps he could not if he
would, for Logan and the rest have their own
interests to look after, and will therefore OBJ

Republican lniquity.
Courier.JouTnal,

In Penn sylvania man may be the vilest
kind of criminal, yet if he mas served well
the Republican party he is sure that the
Board Of Pardons win relieve him of all ap-
prehension of punishment. In the cases Of
the five Legislative brbers, the Board of
PMdons deliberately nullitled the law which
says: "The otiense of corrupt solicitation Of
members Of the General Assembly shall be
punished by fine and Imprisonment" Hon.
Charles 5. Wolfe, member Of the Legisla-
tive Prosecuting committee, in statement
Of the case Of Kemble and his companions,
published in the Philadelphia Press, says:
"Whether, as has been alleged in various
quarters, there was an understanding that the
sentence, if imprisonment should be a part
thereof, should be committed before the flu
eitives returned for sentence, or whether the
wealth and political influence Of Mr.. KEN
BILE, together with dar gerous knowledge sup.
posed to BIO possessed by him, involving 9TH
ers rich and powerful, who were able by some
means to control the action of tho board, and
lot the reasons assigned by them, are the
real grounds for recommending the pardon,
do not pretend to know. Suffice il to say
that the action of the board, based alone on
the reasons they have given, and the manner
Of its exercise, would seem, upon a careful
examination of them, to exhibita tenderness
and consideration for these convicted men
and their crime such as the board have not
been wont to show in the applications ordi-
nsrily made to them, and there is danger that
respect for and confidence in the board may
be diminished by the failure of those who
are telt to have equally meritorous claims &c
secure favorable consideration of their APP
plications." The Board OF Pardons shoult
certainly be forced to give some substantial
reasons for their action. The allegations
mentioned by Mr.. Wolfe are believed by
many persons who have knowledge O
Kemble to be founded on facts.

ATremcsdous spider story
rothe Editorof the Iut,r.Ocean:

To the Editor of the lnt,r-Ocean:
Plainvew, MINI, April 22.-Having
noticed in the Inter Ocean of April -, "A
Colorado 81 iler Story" | thought perhaps
might give you one Of equal interest. The
following facts transpired on the farm Of an
honest old farmer, about two miles from the
t,wn of Plainview: Last Monday morning.
on en- ering his barn, the farmer found, to
his great surprise, his pet bulldog and old
cat and her kittens suspended from the cross
beams in his barn. On examination, he
found them to be suspended by cord, about
the size Of a common wrapping cord, the
fiber of which much resembled silk, but
proved, however, to be SPIDERS web. AT
first he thought the kittens, which were on
the hay Just above the beams, had acci.
dentally dropped into the web, and the old
cat following the instinct of her maternal
nature. endeavoring to rescue them, had her.
self become entangled As TO the situation
of the bulldog, he thought he had been
irving to get at the cot while in her trouble
and had himself to succumb TO the same fate
as the cats, but he slterward came to the
conclusion that they had been picked.up by
the spiders as they went about seeking whom
they might deyour.
| The farmer went out TO call in some of his
| neighbors to witness the marvellous scene,
but imagine his surprise when, on his return
he found sucking colt ascending to the
web, having been encircled by two diiieren,
tibers. one Just before his hind and the other
behind his fore legs, he was being drawn up
by the spiders. When the colt had been
drawn up five or six feet, spider, apparently
we'll versed in physiology, came down one Of
the ibers and began boring for the spina
chord, just between the atlas and the axis, al
| have seen small ones do with flies, but tn
farmer was unwilling to sacrifice the colt fol
the benefit of scientific investigation, and 81
he was rescued.
The spiders were then taken from the dove
cote, ofwhich they had taken possession
and killed. One measured three and one
half inches in length, and weighed one-half
pound. They are of dark brown color
with light stripe down their backs, strong
active and ferocious. Several men of GOO
repute in this section are willing to testif,
to the above facts. WILL HORROR.
