A fine horse belonging to Dick Ma
rion lost its life yesterday in a singu-
lar manner. The animal was hoisting
material to the second story of the
new brick building on Third street,
and the purchase raised throwing the
collar up about his neck and choking
him. He fell, and in falling broke
something in his body; the poor beast
fingered several hours in agony. He
was valued at $50.

The.Tainted ROYAL Blood.
Pittsburg Gazette.

The royal blood of Europe tells some
sad tales. The death OF the late Emper-
or, the withered arm OF his son, the sui.
cides that have occurred in other branches
OF the royal family of Germany, all 20
TO show that there is some bad blood in
it.
The English blood that has been e9d is
being mingled with il il not calculated TO
improve it in quality. The taints in the
English blood have been transmitted
from dissolute kings and their more dis
solute courts. the introduction Of Rus
sian blood into the German family only
added new vigor to the poisons already
theirs; so it is probably true that there is
not drop of royal blood in all Europe
that is as pnre AID free from faint as that
of the average american citizen.
Scotch and Irish blood has been kept
notably free from such taints as initiated
that of Russia England, Germany, and
Spain. Aftsr the Bopapartes got pos.
session OF France Initiated blood was rap
idly eliminated from court and State.
Royalty has shown little of late either
in art or letters, or even in statecraft,
that would indicate any special virtue in
the blood of Hinge. On the contrary,
those in humble lie are rising, and bio
fair to outshine the noblest scions of
noblect blood.
