A Circular Saw Cuts Into Bombshell.

An Alabama paper says A bomb
shell, doubtless fred by the Federals
during the late uneasiness " at the
person or property of some Southerner,
came near doing its destructive work in
Captain II. s. Freeman's saw mill the
other day. The circular saw was plough
ing through large white oak log, per-
haps the hardest wood that grows in our
forests, when 1t struck still harder sub
stance which broke its teeth and sudden
ly stopped its progress. Upon examin-
alton they found, buried In the "stock, !"
to the depth of at least eight inches, a
large percussion bombshell, which ac.
cording to the calculations of those fa-
miliar with the growth of timber, had
been there sixteen or seventeen years,
and the tree had grown over it until
there was but slight scar left. Fortu-
nately the saw struck the shell, which
contained its load, so as. to cause no
explosion.

Attempted Outrage.

The citizens of Bragtown and vicinity
were excited greatly on Thursday by
the attempted outrage of little daugh-
ter of Washington Hess, dec'd., aged
seven years, by tramp. The child is
living with Isaac Bowers and had been
sent to the creek close by, to water the
cattle. Staying longer than usual, Mr..
Bowers went in search of her, when he
discovered the tramp just in the act of
accomplishing his devilish purpose. He
,hurriedly secured a club and after near
ly beating the scoundrel to death, deliv-
cred him over to constable who con-
veyed him to York and lodged him in
Jail.

She Smoked.

James Kelly and wife, Of ofNapier town
ship, Bedford county, were engaged in
burning lime. Mrs. Kelley varied the
monotony of the proceedings by sucking
an old clay pipe. While thus engaged
she picked up bucket containing u
pound of rock powder AS she stopped
over to examine hole in the bucket
from which the powder was escaping n
spark from her pipe fell into the bucket
and there was rather extensive explo-
sion. The woman's clothing took fire,
but she had presence of mind enough to
tear the burning garments from her per-
son, though not until she had been pretty
seriously burned. Her husband was also
burned about the face and hands.

Some Large Figures.

The first contract for furnishing the
Postoflice Department with postal cards.
was made in 1873, at the rate of $l.305
per thousand cards. The number of
cards issued during the contract, which
was for four years, running from July
/, 1878, to June 30, 1877 was $4,000, 500.
Under the next four years contract,
ending June 80, 1881, the number is
estimated at about 900, 600 ,000, and under
the new contract, which will expire
June 80, 1885, the estimated number
will be 2,0O0,O 100000. 1t would require
three men over sixty years to count
them singly, working ten hours every
day in the year and counting at the rate
of fifty per minute; or, If the 1900 ,O00,-
600 cards could be placed end to end
they would extend a distance of 100000
miles, or more than six times the cir
cumference of the globe.

JUDGE ROBERTSON, the new Collector
of the port of New York, was given
complimentary reception at Albany on
Thursday night. Among other things
he said:
1.-The abolition of the unit rule, the
defeat of the third term project, the
establishment of the principle of district
representation at Chicago, and the re-
affirmation at Washington o.day of the
constitutional right of the President to
have nominations considered by the SEN
ate,are hopeful evidences of the dawning
of brighter day in politics, when inde-
pendence of thought and independence
Of action may be exercised within the

Important to Bank Directors and DeposItors.

A member of Pennsylvania banking
association, which was not incorporated,
sold his shares and withdrew. He had
been conspicuously advertised as di-
rector, and no notice was given of his
retirement, further than to omit his
name from the published list of officers.
The concern failed A depositor sued
this ex-director for his claim, on the
ground that the deposit was made in
ignorance of his withdrawal, of which
notification ought to have been given.

DURING the eight years of General
Washington's administration there were
only nine removals, and all for cause.
Mr.. Adams made nine removals also,
but it is believed that none were because
of difference of political opinion. Mr..
Jefferson removed only thirty nine
office holders, and he repeatedly and
solemnly declared that not one was
removed because the incumbent belong
ed to political party different from his
own. Mr.. Madison, during eight years,
made five removals. Mr.. Monroe, dur
ing eight years, made nine, and Mr..
John Quincy Adams, during four years,
made but two.

FROM present appearances New York
is to have as bad a Senatorial deadlock
as this State had last winter. Mr.. Conk-
ling has either lost faith in his hold On
the New York Legislature, or has been
reading the New Testament where he
finds that "faith without works." is not
commended as safe course. He there
fore has laid aside "dignity" and has
gone down among the politicians where
he is working hard to make his calling
and election sure. The administration
party are also working as hard, and feel
confident OF defeating both Conkling
and Platt, but whether they can elect
two Republican Senators seems doubt
full. 1t now seems probable that no
Republican caucus will be held and that
the battle will open on Tuesday in a
sort of triangular fight, as it is pretty
certain that the Democrats will hold a
caucus tonight (Monday) and vote for
two straight Democratic Senators and
without their help Conkling is sure of
defeat.

The editor of the Montezuma
Weekly, in a letter to bis paper this
week tells the following: A lady
boarded the train at Forsyth on
Tuesday night, having in charge
eight children, the youngest being
10 his eighth year. And the elapse
of an hour the children were all Sc
renely sleeping The eldest was
seen TO leave his seat and go to the
rear end Of the car. The mother,
thinking him 10 search of water,
paid DO attention to his movements
until his continued absence caused
sppprehensions. Search was insti-
tuted but The boy could not be found.
1t was then supposed that he fell
from the platform of the car several
miles back, and was now a bruised
ard mangled corpse. The course
of ,he train was eised, and the
anxious passengers thronged the
side of the track, all intent in their
search of the lost boy. Presently
he.was found, not bleeding and
mangled, but alive and well, walking
asleep on the railroad track. He
in a somnambulistic fit, had opened
the door Of the train and jumped
therefrom while it was running a
the rate of twenty miles an hour
without even awaking himself from
the deep mysterious sleep

the democrats thereby could have

does not deserve success. We think
the democrats in refraining to form

pendent radicalism, and by elec,ing
a member Of the democratic organi-
cation President pro tenn, is con
sistent act worthy of admiration
1t is something the party can refer
to 10 fighting us future battles with>
out a blush of shame, and which in
pendent opponents cannot use as an
argument in their own behalf. The
"fruils of victory" gained by the
sacrifice of consistency and fidelity
would have been as brief as Bay
ards imcumbency and turned to
ashes and bitterness on democratic
lips,
