9Th inst, Daniel Anderson, father of Willie,
was arrested at Cincinnati, charged with the
murder. 1t is now claimed that proof hes been
obtained that he left Cincinnati, went to Waynes-
vile, committed the murder and returned before
daylight, and that bis son only had o guilty
derson's divorced wife.
At Cincinnati, O., on the morning Of the 5th
inst, Chas Link inflicted a fatal knife wound ON
Louis Schmidt, the two having previously had
s0me difficulty at ball about q young woman.
Waring Schooley, aged II, son Of prominent
citizen OF fttston, Pa, was found on the even
ng OF the 4th inst, on the outskirts Of the
town, in an unconscious condition, he having
been shot and fatally wounded by an unknown
party. Mrs. Schoo1ey dropped dead when her
son was carried into ihe house.
John and George, sons of Whitfield Moody,
farmer living near Kingston, Ky., quarreled
on the night Of the Sd inst. John was about to
assault George with q knife when the latter shot
him dead.
Near Chillicothe, H., on the Sd inst, John
Guttliffe and Jeremiah Webster, farmers, quar-
relied about fence, when Guttliffe shot Web
ster fatally.
On the 2sth ult., one-a1med negro namep

slant, while the prisoner was being transferred
to Another jail, the guard was overpowered by .
mob, and after being identified by his victim,
Kinder was hung and his body Perforated with
bullets. At the last moment he acknowledged
the outrage, confessed to having outraged a col
ored woman in Newberry six years ago, to kill
ing colored girl nesr Kings Tree last April, to
four burglaries andinnumerable thefts.
The dead body of G.. w. Parker, q man Of
considerable means, WAS found floating in the
canal at Cincinnati, on the I'd instant. His gold
watch was missing; consequently foul play is
suspected. He was widower, IS years old.

Dining sumptuousIy Without Toll.
kloY dos. 81, 1

(From the London TRUTH
How the lilies of the valley, who
neither toll nor spin, nor have any pri-
vate means, manage, year after year to
enjoy all the good things Of this world
has always been wonder to me. Sit
ting the other day, with one of these
lilies, ventured to ask him to explain
to me the mystery of his. existence.
" this is" he said, Chow I provide N.Y.
self with excellent dinners and pocket
money. Whenever q new restaurant of
any repute is opened, I dine there twice
and pay for my dinners. The third time
I send for the proprietor, and telling him
that I have forgotten my purse, ask him
to send waiter home with me, when I
will pay my bill. To this he objects. I
give him my name and address, and the
next day I send him the price Of the din
ner. Then I dine two or three times
without paying, and pay for the three
dinners together. By this time I have
thoroughly estab ablished my credit, and I
can dine 1uxuriously for a long period
without being troubled with the bill. I
at: once organize picnics. I beg each
guest to hand me his share of the bill
and pocket the money, leaving the entire
amount to be charged to me. A new
restaurant does not like to commence his
career by SUNG customer; so when at
last the proprietor is tired of feeding me,
1 promise to pay him some day md then
commence operations with one of his
confreres. Jealousy, and q pleasure in
seeing those in the same business, done,
prevents any one who has been victim
lied warning others against me-

AEeimale lmplQstor,

An English impostor Of the gentler
sex has been unmasked at Chelmsford,
after being petted and fed by the benevo-
lent since 1854, under the impression
that she was so i'll Of paralysis that she
could not leave her bed without help.
During all this time she has subsisted on
the charity of the townsfo]k, and fre-
quently the prayers of the church have
been requested in her behalf. But all
this time, too, when one was looking on,
or likely to enter her dwelling, the ''par-
alytic" woman, could deity leap out of
bed, dress herself swiftly, cook 2 sub
stantial meal. and eat it with relish.
At last, after . quarter of q century OF
deception, she has been found out.
Some prying neighbors invaded her
privacy at times when they we're not e1. .
peoted, and found her not only out OF bed
and dressed, but making q hearty meal !,

Despondent Californians.


The season has advanced far enough to
enable us to forsee that 1880 will not be
a year of prosperity in California. The
abundant rains of December justified the
hope of abundant crops of grass and
grain; but the exceptional cold of the
last six weeks, without rain, has made a
great change for the worse in the situa-
tion. In other departments the out
look is worse than in wheat-growing and
wool growing. The. latter is now the
best business in the state. Horticulture
is menaced by the Legislative and judicial
attacks on the title of water appropriated
for irrigation; hydraulic mining is
threatened with entire destruction; sill
yer mining has passed out of the bonanza
into the borrasca in. lode and law; rail-
road construction has ceased; invest
ments in corporate enterprises have lost
their hold on public confidence; manu-
featuring industry is at q standstill, with
serious danger of large decline in pro-
duction; street improvements have been
checked by the new constitution; there is
little building; there has been decline
of $40, 600, 900 in the banking capital of
San Francisco; and some of the savings
banks, unable to find market for their
money, are refusing to accept deposits: =

Norwegian Trains.
1Erom the ArpOev.1

In the slowness of their trains the Nor
wegians excel the Dutch, and yet the
latter, for this merit or defect, according
to the time, nerves, and fancy Of the in
diyidual traveller, may place themselves
at the head of other European countries.
But here all comparison ends, for while
the Dutch possess but small territory
sufficiently intersected by lines, Norway,
with it's great tract Of country, has
scarcely any railroads at all. Nor is it
probable that she will ever be much bet
ter of in this respect. The land is so
thinly populated that railroads could
never pay. From the billy nature Of the
country their construction would cost
much, while the people are poor: And
lastly, the present mode Of travelling is
all they need. Time is Of less conse-
quence to Norwegians than to other
people, because they, have less to do.
They do not rush through Life as we do,
for instance, giving to one day the work .
Of six. They breathe; the remainder Of
the civilized world is, for the most part,

Galhgher's furniture store, Odd Fellows
hall and the residence of Nr. O'Hara, were
burned at Sequin, Texas, on the 4th inst.
Lerkind's brewery, two miles from Daven-
port, Iowa, burned on the 4th inst. Loss $24.-
GOO; insurance $4,000. It contained about H.
600 bushels of grain:
A fire in Brinckley, Ark; ON the Sd inst,
burned large hotel owned by Gum l. Black.
Loss SIC, 600; insured: The west end OF the
hotel was occupied as an Office by the Southern
Express company and Memphis and Little Rock
Railroad company: All the papers and valua-
bles were destroyed.
Farnham d Comstock's planning mill and the
Domestic sewing machine factory, in New York
city, we're destroyed on the I'd. Loss about
$150.O00 The engineer Of the planning mill,
Karetz 3. Decarey, was fatally burned.
The village of Bergen, Genessee county, N.
T., was laid in ashes on the I'd inst. Every
business place in the village but one, twenty
eight in all, was burned to the ground. Nine
families were left houseless, and one young
man Burt Hall by name, was burned nearly to
death. The fire was incendiary, and suspicion
rests on two prominent citizens. Fourteen
years ago the same village was half burned in
the same manner, and at that time, as now,
both these men held heavy insurance.
A fire in Main street, Walkesbarre, Pa, on the
I'd inst, caused loss of 100000.
At Memphis, Tenn., on the list inst, Roos l.
Graham's wagon factory was destroyed by fire.
Loss about $65, 900.

Told Down in Maine.

The Calais (Maine) Advertiser says
that recently, while John Lowering, sew
enty-six years old, was driving across
Meddybemps Lake on the ice, with
p11ng and single horse, he espied a deer,
making it's way, with some difficulty, on
the smooth ice:' Putting his horse at
full speed, he set out in pursuit of the
deer, Which slipped badly in it's efortsto
run. He soon came up with the allma!
and the collision with the pung knocked
it down. The old man seized the fallen
deer as hewas sweeping by, drew it across
the pung in front Of him and cut his
throat with pocket-hife. Alof which
forms pretty good story, whether true
or not-as it probably is.

A Cool officer.

Col. Isaac Parker, the favorite aid Of
General Hancock, was an ugly man IN a
row, and many strange stories OF his
reckless bravery are related by his com"
rades. Perhaps the most characteristic
exhibition of soldier wit and cynicism on
record is the following: AT the battle
of Rheims station, at a critical moment,
General Hancock dispatched his favorite
aid with information to General Meade's
headquarters. On his arrival everyone
was burning with anxiety to know now
the battle was going. GLOW is General
Hancock ?" cried one. "He is all right,
was the reply. "How is General Mitch; !;
ell % asked another. "Oh he is well
enough" "How is Brownson % finally
asked staff officer, alluding to Orestes
Brownson, a young and very popular
officer of General Hancock's staff. Oh,
he is all right, too," replied the mper-
turbable Parker. "He is being en-

breathless. If they have a hundred
miles to travel, they can as well devote a
week to it, as half dozen hours; or, if
they cannot, they wisely stay at home.
So that travelling in Norway is very much
what it was in England century ago.
A little slower and more leisurely, per-
haps, now than then, for nowhere in
Norway will you come across the fine
sight of a coach and four tearing up hill
and down dale at express speed. The
average rate of progress is about four
miles an hour; and, do what you will,
taking one thing with another, you can
not get much beyond this. Their rail-
ways, by comparison, are not much bet
ter-of stately speed, perhaps, but irrita-
ting.

An Important Decision.

The United States Supreme Court has given
decision as to the constitutiona]ty Of the act of
the West Virginia legislature excluding colored
citizens from jury service in the courts Of the
state. The court holds that when colored
citizen is tried for his life by jury from which
citizens of his own race are by state statute ex-
pressly excluded, he is denied that equal protec-
ton of the law guaranteed by the third clause
of tho fourteenth amendment of the constitu-
ton, and that the state statute denying him
such right is repugnant to said constitutional
provision: Justice Strong delivered the opinion,
Justice Field dissenting.
