Brutal Attack on a Son.

When Police Weidaw arrested CHARLES
Patterson on Tuesday night, the latter had
the appearance of cowboy on the RAIN
page. In one hand he hourished a ten
incl butcher knife while the handle OF a
similar weapon pretended from the waist
band of his trousers. He was arrested for
aggravated assault with intent 10 kill his
wife and son; the latter whom received a
deep cash in the head from a sickle, the
blade penetrating the skull bone and max
ing frighLful wound, while his hands
were severely cut in trJ ing TO ward off the
brutal thrusts OF deadly. weapon in the
hands of his father who is said to have
been crazed with liquor. The scene of the
racas was bespattered with blood and pre-
sented sickening appearance while the
boy, Levi with blood streaming from num-
erous wounds looked as if he had just came
from the field of carnage. Patterson was
locked up and on Wednesday morning
taken before Squire Be.tz, and from
thence conveyed TO the county prison at
Mauch Chunk where he is liRelY to remain
for sometime to come. Public senti-
ment is bitter against him, his rep
utation for peace in the family circle not

are well spoken off by neighbors as being
clean, sober and industrious in habits
and they have the sympathy of the com
munity in this trouble.

Nine Million witches Burned +,

Sprenger computes that during the
Christian era no fewer than nine million
witches were inundated. In England. the
last execution for witchcraft took place in
l7l6, but in Illinois as late as 1880 TO 1890,
several unfortunates were put TO death
This is a terrible reflection on the boosted
enlightenment of the age; but we must not
be oyer-censoriOus, while we daily see
friends going down TO death, ignorance or
prejudice preventing the use of remedies
which might save them. Many cold runs
into consumption, while indigestion aud
impure blood debilitates the system, inYit-
ing fatal attacks when the use of Doctor
Perce's Golden Medical Discovery would
have ensured health and happiness.
