another country, after admonishing son
Donald of the wrath to come. If he
had been about, his sensible advice would
have been, to brother and sister, to en~
brace, and to seat the sisters hus-
band in the Senate. That was the gen.
eral view of what the interests of
THE FAMILY demanded and the aged
Winnebago is for THE FAMILY every
time, now that his sands are about run
out, and the question Of prime interest
for him is whether he is to be allow or
aloft in another world.
1t is sad when brethren cannot dwell
together in unity and when fathers can
not teach them the lesson of the bundle
Of sticks. But if children could be made
as wise as their fathers,b by their precepts,
this world would be an unin-
teresting place for those who haven't
wise fathers. It is we'll that nature has
declared that wisdom shall not be a per-
pefual inheritance and that there shall
be swine who may not appreciate pearls,
and SONS and daughters who cannot
profit by chunks of wisdom literally fed
to them. There is chance for every.
body, when everybody is left to be
taught by his own experience and te
survive or perish by his own wits.
Yes! Simon would rejoice over Wayne
but that he treads on tine body of Don. A
house divided against itself cannot
stand ; and the end of THE FAMILY
cOmeth apace even while its creator
liveth to sing its death song.

Mr.. David w. Overly is going to erect
an attachment of 35 feet to his carriage
manufactory. This addition will make
the building very large and convenient.
During the high waters large numbers
of musk-rats were shot in the streams
around Monterey, and fur dealers will find
it to their advantage to visit this neigh
borllood. Several persons hero also use
the hind quarters of the carcass as food,
and consider them quite a luxury, willing
ly paying 10 cents per pair for them. One
man received 20 pair Of hams from one
party, and, a la Chinaman, claims them to
be very palatable.
Messrs. Seigle & Morrin are running a
full set of hands in their tobacco packing

extreme eastern end of the county and
where the flea was comparatively unheard
Off there was any there the bites are
not noticed in tho leaf.
Quite number of persons delivering
tobacco from the eastern end, some 20 or
S5 miles distant, complain of poor hotel
accommodations in Monterey. Tho to-
bacco is generally delivered with four and
slx-hOrse teams, and they have to drive on
their home road as far as Bareville before
getting their meals. This makes rather a
long fast-from 3 o'clock in the morning
until in the afternoon. What are hotels

Mrs. Mary overland, forty years old, re-

Philadelphia, fell against a stove and sci
fire to her clothes. Her husband returned
home to find her in flames. He had :
hard struggle to extinguish the blaze, and
was too late to save her from death.
In Pottstown, Emma Ida, five-year
old daughter of Davis T. Thomas, had hel

was so badly burned about the entire body

AN EARTHQUARE's VICTIMS.
Two Hundred Lives Lost and An lmmc
Amount of DamaEe Done.

Two Hundred Lives Lost and An Immense
Amount of Damage Done.
Ischia, where the earthquakes of FRIDAY
occurred, is an island of Italy, in the
Mediterranean, at the northern entrance
of the Bay of Naples, and has a popula-
tion of some twenty five thousand souls.
The greatest destruction was at Casamac-
ciola, noted for its warm baths. The
first shock occurred at go on Friday
afternoon, and the second an hour later.
The whole upper part of the town was de-
strOyed and two establishments damaged.
The details confirm the damage to prop
erty and loss of life and injury to peo-
pie previously mentioned. The syndic
and sub-prefect are directiag operations
for the recovery of the bodies of the vic
tins. The royal steamers Naguna, Pagona
and Esploratore have arrived from Naples
with soldiers and physicians. The soldiers
have rescued many from the ruins. The
population have fled to the surrounding
country and along the sea coast. The king
and the minister of the interior have sent
a contribution for the relief of the suffer
ers: The second and fatal shock lasted
seven seconds, accompanied noise like sub
thunder. Then came a crash of
falling houses. accompanied ty shrieks of
the victims. The probable loss of life will
reach 200. The damage to house property
is 1.OOO, 900 francs. 1t was at first sup
posed that the disaster was connected with

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE DRAMA.

"Ths Guy'nor" At Fulton Opera House.
Last evening small audience was pres
ent at the opera house to witness the per-
furmancc Of Harold Warren's dramatic
combination in the farcical comedy OF
"Thc Guv'nor." Concerning tho piece
itself it need only bc said that it comprises
a string Of ludicrOus situation and mirth-
provoking incidents growing out of mutual
MISUNDERSTANDING OccasiOned by the
extreme deafness Of an old boat builder
and the extreme stupidity of a
retired confectioner These occasion,
series of ridiculous mistakes in
volving nearly all the principal characters,
from which happy deliverance is wrought
out with some skill. The hunlor is at
times coarse, and the dialogue not entirely
free from objection, abounding in frequent
dashes Of profanity and questionable COL
loQuialisns not heard in polite society
but the good nature Of last nights audi
encc inclined to overlook these eccentric
tiles of speech and action and to laugh at
the many funny situations that
rapidly succeeded each other. The company
that produced the work is of fair capacity,
the most positively successful i'm
personation being Mr.. J. H. Burnett's S rem
ditiOn of the role of old Macclesfeld, the
ancient mariner of Putney, whose very
appearance was sufficient to arouse the
inirth of the least impressiblc, and whose
odd mistakes occasioned by his exceeding
hardness of hearing provoked frequent
roars of laughter. Mr.. Harold Warren is
quite a clever actor, and played the part
of the suffering lover in good style. Mr..
E. Ii. Stephens as Butterscotch performed
his part reasonably we'll. OF the ladies
the greater share of the honors fell to Miss
Bonnette Ri 'hmond, who made capital
little sweetheart, and whose artless and
winning manners admirably betitted the
role.

MUCH MARRIED..
2he Now Naval secretary.


Mr.. Garield's secretary of the navy,
Hunt has been a much married man. His
first wife (now dead) was Miss Andrews,
of Mississippi. His second wife (also
dead) was Baltimore lady, and daughter
of commodore of the Uuited States navy.
His third wife was q widOw-Mrs. Har-
rison-a daughter of the late Jacob Baker
and was some years the senior of Mr..
Hunt. After three years of union they
mutually agreed to separate and she was
to 60 to Europe. While she was there
Hunt undoubtedly procured the passage of
divorce act by the Legislature of Louisi-
ana, adding clause which could embrace
his case and abridging the time for DEGREES.
Another Legislature repealed this, but
while it was in force he began a divorce
suit. Hunt instituted his suit during the
absence of his wife, who was represented
according to law practice by curator ad
AOc to represent her and whose duty it
was to inform her Of the suit. This pro-
ceedinS is equivalent to the New York
practice of service Of summons by publ
cation The curator appointed By the
court was Mr.. D. c. Labatt. 4 decree
was rendered against her (the curator
| filing an answer tor her and defending the
suit as best he couldD Of absolute divorce.
| A. year after this Hunt married a fourth
time-a widow lady-the daughter Mr..
Adams, OF New Orleans, who is his present
wife. Mrs. Harrison Hunt undoubtedly
knew of the Louisiana proceeding, was
advised that it would be nullity, and
that the probabilities were that under
the then Republican regime she would
not obtain justice. When he and his new
wife, the fourth Mrs. Hunt, came on tIlei,
wedding tour to New York, the third Mrs
Hunt, by John X. Porter, brought suit fol
divorce, alleging the relations of Mr.. ant
Mrs Hunt No. 4 Mrs. Harrison Hunt
was very resolute, as were her friends
who thought, as New Orleans societ,
thought and still thinks, that Hunt hat
taken unfair advantage. She took tht
case up to the supreme court, but every
court and judge held that under the con
stitution they must give full force to the
Louisiana decree.

WASHINGTON BOROUGH ITEMS
From Our Regular Corresrcnaent.


The administrator of Christian Ohmi;,
deceased, sold a house and half lot OF
ground in this borough, on Saturday even
ing, 5th, at Capt. Kane's hotel. J. c..
StOner, of West Hempfield was the pur-
chaser, for the sum of s434.5O.
The tobacco in this section is nearly all
ready for market, but tho buyers seem to
be scarce. We have had a buyer here for
about week, but az far as known he did
not invest in tobacco in this ncig ghborhood.
There is hardly a district in the county
where there has been So small q quantity
sold and as large quantity of fine leaf
awaiting the buyers as here.
This borough was favored with rare
treat on Sunday morning, in the way of a
sermon or lecture by Mrs. Wheeler, Of
Columbia, subject, "The Missionary
Cause" The lecture was well-delivered
and the subject very ably handled so
much SO that all who heard it wished for
repetition, when there will certainly be a
full house.
Our town has been thrown into quite q
ferment of gossip by several lawsuits
which have been started the last week
one was that in which. h.ex-Assemblyman J.
L. Shuman sent the sheriff on John Walk
for saying it and in the other Walk sued
Shuman for doing it. Walk was held for
his appearance at court in the sum of
So, 600, John s. Mann being his bondsman.
In the second case Shuman was held for a
hearing before John p. Frank, j. P, on
Tuesday forenoon the bail was put at
500, Jacob b. Shuman being his surety.
Jacob S. Shuman and Simon Mann were
the only persons from this place who went
to Washington, D. c., to see that Garfield
was properly installed in Office.
Rev. J. w. Deshong preached in the
Church of God on Sunday evening. Whom
ever the Rev. Deshon. comes to this place
he is sure of good audience.

That big SEDioWar.

The Examiner thinks that the old
Winnebago, hearing Of the elevation OF
sOn-in-law Wayne, down in Cuba where
he is supposed to be, was as happy as
possible over the news, and thought THE
FAMILY was doing very well, indeed.
We should not at all be surprised if the
aged Simon SO felt. The old man Las
learned to take the dispensat:nns of
Providence with resignation, and ic
get all the honey there is in the dryest
flower. And undoubtedly there was a
good deal of sweetness in this last sum
flower that has buried THE FAMILY un-
der its big eXpanse of yellow. Sunflow-
ers are good chicken feed, and THE FAM
lily, if it is wise enough to use this ore
profitably, could raise il beautiful brood
of lusty Shanghais. If the old chief
had the handling of the business we are
very sure that the beauty and succulence
of this flower would be used for all it is
worth to promote THE FAMILY's fatness
and increase. But unfortunately the old
man is not at the helm. He has unruly
SONS and daughters. Donald is not a
pacificator, and Mrs. Wayne is like unto
him. When the youthful Simon Sc
lected the mother of his childlen, he in
troduced a very stiff fence into their
moral natures, to bother the sinuous
craftiness of the prosperous amble
through life that his own unadulterated
spirit would have given them. 1t is a
very stone wallof obstinacy. The aged
Winnebago, foreseeing its ruinous effect
in the senatorial struggle, could not en-
dure to NitHs S. il and Travelled afar to

Hayes stinginess and lack of hOspi-
tality at the White House during the
social reign of himself and his wife are
unfounded and unjust. She declare 8
