| Arthur and Edward Hartman.
The young man, who was twenty years
| Of age, was captain Of the boat he was try
| ing to secure flOm danger, as it was drift
| ing towards the edge OF the dam below.
| He was raised here, and had an excellent
| character for energy and business, and was
altogether q most promising young man.
| His mother and sisters were plunged in in
cOnsoable grief at the sudden calamity, and
| the sympathy OF the whole community was
aroused, as was evidenced by the large con.
gregation which attended his funeral sun
| day afternoon at Trinity church, which
were conducted by Rev. W. Q. Hulihen,
the rector. The paIl.bearers were six young
companions Of the deceased-Sluart Bald
win, Phil. Allen, Roger Atkinson, BriscOe
Tams, Burnie Woodward, and Willie Han
ger.
| Last week Mrs. Blackwell, Of Mount Sid
nCy, and Miss Burrus, OF Albemarle, had a
very narrow escape from drowning in
North river near Mount Crawford. The
ford at that point Is deep, and the water
was high, aud the ladies attempted 10 cross
in buggy. Getting in over his depth The
horse, valuable animal, became unman-
ageabe and was soon drowned. The ladies,
in great peril. remained In the buggy, and
were rescued by Mr. Christian Miller, who
happened to come along Just in time.
There has been no more cases OF small
pox here since the single one mentioned
| last week, and Mr.. Lorenzo Smith is re-
ported cOuvalescent by DR.. McChcsney, bis
physician, this morning. There was lit
| tie furry here at first, and the young ladies'
at the seminaries, the school children, and
citizens generally were speedily ycccinaed.
The excitement has, however, entirely
abated, and no apprehension is now felt.
| The Roy farm, 65 acres, near Greenyille,
was sold on court-day at auction at $40 per
acre, and a small portion OF 1t additional at
| $25 % per acre; the Fishburne farm, 1853
acres, near Verona, at 81 per acre, with
other smaller land sales at the same time.
Mr.. L. RUBBISH has also sold bis farm OF 90
acres, lying near Mount Sidney, at S22 per
| acre-private sale.
In the County Court Monday several par
ties were indicted for unlawful fishing, con-
| fessed judgment, and were fined S20 each.

eight deeds and other writings admitted TO

VILLAIN Waldorf A stnr sought

William Waldorf Astor sought and cas-
lily gained the republican nomination. As
Banker Morton only a year before had
scored majority of 3, 800, the nomination
was supposed to be practically equivalent
to election But William Waldorf Aston
resolved to make assurance doubly sure
and to that end began one of the most de-
moralizing and discreditable eanvasses
ever seen in this country. 1t astonished
even the New York newspapers. Hardened
reporters watched his doings with awe.
Rich as the district is it includes within its
limits large regions of poverty and squal
or. William Astor canvassed these with
panstaking thorougbness, hurrying from
Gin mill to beer saloon and from beer sa-
loon to brewery. How much he spent
will probably never be made public. And
after all this outlay of money and time,
this toll and humiliation, William Waldorf
Astor finds himself soundly beaten by a
self made man, democrat, who, when
asked to undertake a contest from which
others had shrunk, made this reply: IF
you run me on my record, viii stand in
the gap, but if want to,ruo my purse. L
prefer to subscribe my share towards an
other mans canvass. / will not, TO gain
the election, buy one republican vote"
Let the other young millionaires who have
political aspirations contemplate William
Waldorf Asthor, as he extricates himself
from the wreck of his canvass, and lay the
warning TO heart.-SprtnajfeEd Republican.

1t is stated that Malone is to be tende

It is stated that Malone is to be tender
ed cabinet position, and democrats have
also stated that they would oppose his
confirmation until the crack of doom. 1t
is hard to believe that President Arthur
would 80 far forget all decency as to ap-
point man like Malone to his cabinet,
but Arthur is a politician before he is any
thing else, and politics may possibly gov
ern his actions. Mahones sole CLAIM to
consideration is that he obtained seat in
the senate by advocating reputation of
debts and afterwards sold the vote that
seat gave him to the republican adminis-
tration at time when the latter thought
it was valuable. In accordance with the
eternal fitness of things if he does receive
such an opportunity, why not give him the
treasury?

General Arthur has appointed Judge
Folger because he WAS the original choice
of Grant and Cenkling. and leaves the pub
lie to infer that general Arthur will be very
apt to adopt many recommendations which
were promptly rejected by General Gar.
feld.-Neac York Sun
The editor of newspaper ought to
know what every intelligent reader knows.
that Judge Folger was asked into tht cabi-
net of General Garfield. The correspond
ence upon the subject having been made
public, there is no excuse for such state
ment as the above.-Inter- Ocean.
The above dispute seems to be general
but if the Chicago Tribune is to be believ-
ed, Judge Folger desired to become a
member OF Garfield's cabinet, but Garfield
respectfully declined the honor, on grounds
which certainly were good ones; at least
they seem so now when his present APP
pointment is under discussion.
