FIRE IN MARIETTA.
Klulnpp's Tannery Burned

AdAAAChy
Part of the extensive steam tannery of
John C. Klumpp on Locust street, Marict-
ia, was destroyed by fire yesterday after
noon. A large brick building used as 4
dying house, stable and general storage,
was totally burned with most Of the con
tents. consisting of lot of tobacco
in the upper story, belonging to
Mr.. Philip Hafner, a new buggy,
a wagon, hay, straw, &c, belonging to
Mr.. Klumpp. A horse ard a lot of leather
in the building when the fire broke out
were saved. The fire next communicated
with a large frame bark house, burning off
the greater portion of the roof and part of
the contents. A frame stable belonging to
Michael Gable, near by, was partially
burned. A number Of dwellings in the
vicinity were Oh fire, but were not dam
aged. Through the noble efforts of the
tiremen the rest of the buildings and other
very valuable property belonging to the
tannery, rs wella rs much other property in
the immediate vicinity, were saved. The
loss, estimated at 81 900 or 81 800, is part
ly covered by insurance. 1t is not known

from being accidentally set on fire by some
children who were playing near by with
matches.

POLE RAISING.

Tho Young Democracy of Old Coler.in.
The young Democrats of Union, Cole
rain township, raised beautiful Han.
cock pole last Saturday. Without one jar,
slip, break or discord, the tall, handsome
hickory settled into the foundation, and
raised its top one hundred and two feet
above the ground, trembling as though
thrilled by the rouslng cheers that went
up with it, honest, hearty, grand-solid
as the pole or the principles it represents.
The drawing up Of the flag, of course, was
the signal for another good hurrah, and
the Unions young Democrats are
not one bit behind in anything, cheers not
excepted. Beneath the flag hangs a large
white shield, upon one side of which ap-
pears, as light to the Democratic
eye, and writing. on -the-wall to the Re-
publican, ''Hancock, English and Vic
tory" and upon the other side g Han
cock, English and Reform"
The Independent cOrnet band furnished
excellent music and everything went
as " merry as marriage bell" Mr.. D.
F. McGee and Jas. Walker, esq.,, address,
ed the meeting, and congratulated the
young Democracy upon their enthusiasm
in the cause, and their success in raising
such a creditable pole.

Coughs.
"Bro,un's bronchial Troches" are used with
advantage to alleviate Coughs, Sore Throat,
IIoarseness and Bronchial Affections. For
thirty years these Troches have been in use,
with annually increasing favor. They are not
new and untricd, but, having been tested by
wide and constant use for nearly an entire
generation, they have attained well-mcrited
rank among the few staple remedies of the age.
The Throat.
"Bro,un's bronchial Iroches" act directly
on the organs of the voice. They have an ex.
traordinary effect in all disorders OF the Throat
and Larynx, restoring o healthy tone when re-
laxed, either from cold or ovcr-exertion of the
voice, and produce a clear and distinct enunci
alton. Speakers and Singers find the Troches
useful.

r, s. NJ. COLLEGE.

Wants of tho institution.
Reformed Church Messenger.
There is need of a proper building on the
campus that may serve as library build
ing or for the present at least provide a
good reading room, and also make room,
if that can be done, for 4 chemical appa-
ratus, and for some mathmatical instru-
mentS.
Mr.. Kersllner, the newly appointed
mathematical professor, who has been en-
gagged for some time in the astronomical
observatory of Yale college, desires very
much to be supplied with an equatorial,
fivc-inch telescope, that would cost $3.50, a
transit, tllree-inch telescope, cost $500, a
clock, standard, $3.50, and barometer,
thcrometcr, collimator, &C., 800; in all
say 81, 200.
The board Of trustees ut their annual
meeting. appointed a responsible commit
tee to inaugurate measures to provide a
scientific building. Why might not that
committee begin just here with the math-
cmatical department and then extend their
labors to the wants of the department of
chemistry, reading room, etc The great
matter is to make beginning. When that
is done the friends of the college will not
allow it to want for anything necessary to
extend its usefulness.

The drought is exceedingly hard on the

HABEA; CORPUS CASE.

Contest for Possession Of . Child.
There was great excitement in the Or
nhans' court room and the corridors of the
court house this morning, between . and
10 o'clock, growing out of family difh-
Guilty. of . years standing. between
Frederick Wolf and his wife, and their
mutual friends. The case was heard by
his honor Judge Livingston, on writ OF
habeas corpus, granted on application OF
Mrs. Wolf, for the recovery of her little
son, aged about 10 years, whom she al
legged was improperly restrained by her hus-
band.
The case was partially heard before
Judge Livingston yesterday afternoon at A
o'clock and was resumed this morning.
From the testimony offered it appeared
that Mr.. and Mrs. Wolf had lived rather
unhappily together for some time, and
that about a year ago, after hacking the
furniture with hatchet and otherwise
behaving badly, he left the house. The
reason he gave for his violent conduct was
that his wife had transferred her affections
to another man. On leaving the house Mr.
Wolf took boarding at the Exchange
hotel and continued to board there until
few days agO-his wife, two children and
the "other man. continuing to occupy
the house he left. On Tuesday MIR. Wolf
says his little boy Charlie came
to the barrier shop barefooted, poorly
clad and crying, and told his
father that his mother had driven
him from the house and told him never to
come back. He then bought the boy new
shoes and new suit of clothes and took him
to his brother Hcnry's, where he was prop
crly cared for, and Mr.. Wolf thereupon
gave up his room ut the Exchange and
took boarding at his brother Henry's, SO
as to bc near and take care of him. In
answer to question by tho court, Mir.
Wolf said he was willing to go back to his
home and provide for his wife and children
on condition that the obnoxious man now
quartered there WAS turned out of the prem
ises. Toa question pat to Mrs. Wolf as
to whether she WAS willing to accept these
conditions shc said "never," and there
was a lively tine among the friends of the
respective parties, Mrs. Wolf and her
mother being terribly excited by the charge
that she had ever been other than loyal
wife. The court decided to allow the child
to remain in custody of the father, where
he has good home and where he prefers
to be; but ordered that the mother should
have the privilege Of visiting him Oh all
reasonable occasions.
At the conclusion of the case there was
- lively quarrel among the women in the
corridor, which was only qucllcd by
threats of locking up the disputants.

A Man Killed while Hanging Toba

A terrible accident occurred yesterday
afternoon at the farm of Mr.. Penn Moore,
in COlerain township. One of the men
who was assisting in hanging tobacco in
the barn fell from scaf1Old, had his skull
crushed and died instantly.
alA later dispatch from Quarryvillc to the
INTELL1GENCER says that the victim of the
accident was A. T. McNeal man Of
about forty years of age with large fam
lily. The fall was Occasioned by break in
the scaffolding, and though not as high as
persons have often fallen with slight iniu-
ries. he fell very hard and striking on his
head the skull was fractured and death
was almost instantaneous. The frightful
affair has occasioned much sorrow.
Isaac Wilson, well-known citizen, rs
we'll as one of the oldest men in the lower
