FRiGHTFUL TRAGEDY.
A Farmer MortaIIy wounds His son,
and then Commits Suicide.

Ngw CONCORD, o.. April l3.-One OF the
most horrible affairs that has occurred in
Guernsey county in a long time took place
in Westland township, about five miles
west of Cambridge, yesterday. II was as
certained, upon visiting the place, that
John s. Nossett, a respectable farmer, aged
sixty.fve years, had shot and mortslly
wounded his son, John f., without provo
cation. and then killed himself.
The old gentleman was possessed OF an
uncomfortable temper, and for several
years past has threatened the several MEM
bers Of the household, but no violence had
been attempted until to-day. 1t appears
that the victim of the old mans in-humor
was preparing to erect dwelling upon the
land of his father. which the latter objected
TO, and while the son was dressing q stone
in the yard for the foundation, his father,
through an opening in the stable, fired
rife that entered the sons abdomen, pro-
ducing injuries that will prove fatal.
No one was near when the shot was Tired,
but from appearances it is thonght the
father at once repaired TO the house, and.
fastening the door. took a-reyolver from
his pocket that he had been in the habit OF
carving. and standing. in frOnt of the
mirror, took deliberate aim and fired, the
bullet entering his skuh about two inches
above the right ear. aad! passing through
the head, producing instant death. The
old man had been deaf for over twenty
years, and during that time had exhibited
symptoms Of insanity.

reckless disregard Of the common decencies

here few months ago, escaped from the
officer who was accompanying him to his

the other peccadiloes, with being defaul-
ter to the government, in an immense sum,
and although ostensibly confined in Jail
lived like prince, and was permitted to
visit his home, and go pretty much where
he liked, accompanied by an officer; and to-
day, taking advantage OF this liberty, gave
the uiicer the slip, and is now concealed.
1t is now generally believed that the escape
was planned long since, and that the wo-
man who shared his ill-gotten gains, and
whom it is supposed still has large sum,
has aided him, and that both will ne 1t turn
up in Canada il they succeed in escaping
from the city. G..

Massachusetts Chickens Going Home
20 Roost.
Special Dispatch 10 The Register.

Special Dispatch 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, April l3.-Chickens come
home to roost. When the nomination of
Judge Robertson, as Collector of New York,
was pending. Senator Hoar was the man
who ridiCuled the idea of Senatorial courte-
sy, as applied to Presidential appointments.
and in the course of his remarks asked:
What is the protest of the Senators from
New York 10 US, if the President chooses to
appoint man personally disagreeable to
them? That is nothing to us. We have
nothing TO DO with courtesy in a case like
that; it is our duty toeonfrm the act of the
Executive, and let the Senators look out
for themselves" Now whether he was
light or wrong in his assumptions, the fact
remains that when, in due course Of time,
President Arthur saw proper to exercise
the prerogativeS which Senator Hoar 80
strongly advocated, the dose proved an ex-
ceedingly bitter one; so much 80, in fact,
that the latter has not yet got done making
faces over it. No sooner was Mr.. Worth
ington nominated for Collector
of CustoMs at Boston, a man who
is the leader of the Stalwarts of
Massachusetts, editor of the Stalwart or
gan, and who has opposed Mr.. Hoar's
schemes of personal and political aggran-
dizement-than the Senator Immediately
shook the dust Of Washington from. his
feet and went home. Whether he will re-
sign or not in case WOrthington shall be
confirmed is not known, but there is
scarcely 4 doubt that he would like to do
were it not that he diSlikes to
be laughed at fUF- following au .ex'
anple which he has 50 heartily con-
dcmned. am not aware of the particu-
lar reasons influencing the President in
making this nomination, but it looks very
much As if it were done to give Mr.. Hoar
taste of that decoction which he so glee-
fully prescribed for brother Senator few
months ago. There is hardly room to sup
pose that General Arthur will adopt this
plan of overriding the Senatorial will as
rule, but that the custom will be allowed,
so far as he is concerned to end with Hoar
as it began with Conkling, but it is safe to
say that of all the many speeches which the
Senator has made in his long life, there are
no two which he would SO gladly wipe out
as the Cne referred to, and that against
COnkling'S confirmation. G.

by the protectionists, and not only by pro-
tectionists but by others of the party, who
though themselves in favor of the tariff re-
form plan, fear to make it an issue. Some
of the party leaders who advocate making
tariff reform prominent this year, with a
view OF fighting the next Presidential cam
paign upon it, are provoked at the dispo-
sition manifested to avoid this issue. One
OF these, prominent member of
Congress, =, said,r- to-day, that he
had no hope of Democratic success until

planting itself upon tariff reform, and OF
saying to those who do not agree with this
issue, that they had better leave the Demo.

the Democrats in Congress continue to vote
against the other halfon questions in which
the people are mostly interested, We Will
