In speaking Of President HAYES going
from Ohio to attend the commencement
exercises at Yale College, New Haven, an
exchange remarks that few Presidents
have had an opportunity to compl, te
their labors so serenely ard comfortably.
FRANKLIN PIERCE felt bitterly at his
ewn party for not renominating him, and
WIS Foundly and righteously nounced
by the opposition Tor trucking to the slave
power. JAMES BUCHANAN closed his adj
ninistTalion amid the gathering storm of
civil war. ANDREW JoHSsoN's career in
the white houss was one long, bitter strug-
gle with the party which elected him, and
he went ont of Office with few friends in
either party. General GRANT was severely
attacked by the Democrats during the Pres
ilential campaign Of 1879, and had to sub
nit to violent abuse from the Democratic
newspapers up to the day lie left the white
house. Mr.. HAYES is respected by his own
party and let alone by the other because
his administration is not open to serious
attack. II has been intelligent, business
like and free from scandals. The Demo.
crats can make no capital cut Of ii so they
say nothing about it and allow the Pres.
ident TO close his term in peace.

But this writer is like n person beating
the air in the most ridiculous fashion, for
in writing about particular occurrnnce no
name or address is given to determine who
or what is meant. This gives the whole Of

fiction, invented for the sole purpose Of

ANOTHER WOOD COUNTY
MURDER,
Geo. Rooney, an old Farmer of
Liberty TywnshIP, BraIned by "A
PitchfOrk In the Hands OF n
Neigh bor named Baker.

About e'clock::on last Friday afternoon,
a fatal nffray occurred in Liberty town.
ship, about AZ miles southeast Of Weston,
in which GEO. ROONEY, Sr, was assaulted
and his skull crnshed with a pitchfork in
the hands Of man named BAKER. The
particulars as given by Weston CORES.
pondent to the Toledo Bee are as follows:
Baker, who lives not far off, went to
Rooney's on some errand. While there a
dispute arose about some trivial matter
aud hot words followed Rooney attacked
Baker with pitchfork and the latter
seized the fork, wrenrhed 1t from Rooney 3
grasp and instantly Drained him with the
heavy handle Of the fork.
Rooney, who is II man nearly seventy
years OF age, was yet gaSping in the throes
OF death when my informant left-his
brains oozing from his fractured skull.
Deputy Sheriff.. G. Reid, who happened
to be passing in the road soon after the
tragedy took place arrested Baker and cur
ried him to Jail at Bowling Green.
Your correspondent is unable TO give the
pnrtiulars which led to this sad termination
Of the life OF Mr.. Rooney, who has lived in
the county about dozel years, on what is
known as the Caleb Mercer place, which
he bought. but has since decided by contract
to some OF his children, they stipulating to
keep and take care OF the old man
1t seems he is or WIS rather dificult to
get along with, peaceabbly; litigation has
followed, and Mr.. Rooney has been quite
a regular altendent upon Common Pleas
Court, and his old age has been anything
but peaceful and quiet.
1t seems that Baker, who struck down
Roonty,is II brothert to another man named
Baker, who married one of Rooney's daugh-
tiers, and when all The facts come ont there
may be some further explanation of the
sudden quorrel which resulted 50 lragically

Men, says DR.. Hall, who have half dcz.

is mans salvation, physical and mental.
And yet nine or ten are wislfully looking
forward to the coveted hour when they
shall have leisure to do nothing or some
