Correspondence of the ObServer)
.Ionesboro, y. c., Feb. 2@=.-Some time
ago there appeared in the town negro,

claimed TO be clergyman of the Baptist
church He was modest and humble
in his way, and was not long in gain
ing the affections of Penny Mccoy, 20
years his senior. and who is possessed
of some cash and good tract of ground.
They were married. 1t turns out that
the negro is not preacher, but veri-
table demon. In the last month he has
beaten his wife cruelty several times:
tied her ont in the yard during the cold
snap; stuck a pitchfork in her arm; and
finally, last Saturday, stuck the prong
Of an iron table fork into the old w1-
mans eye. destroying the sight thereof.
1T was only by accident that his atroci-
ties became known. The negroes were
on the point of lynching him. But he
is now, / understand, safe in jail at
Carthage, and Penny don't want to see
him any more.

and in spite of her protestations led her
toward well-known resort.
Lieut.. Burke inquired into the proceed-
ing. The young men said that thew were
taking her to her home, and told Rnrke
10 mind his business. Burke struck one
OF the men across the face and the other
man fed. Lieut.. Burke remained with

In the Suits OF Bracket q. Corser
Against the BrattIebOrO Overall Conn
pany.

In the Suits of Bracket &. Corser
Against the BrattIeboro Overall Com-
pany.
Copies of Judge Wheelers opinion in
The suits of Bracket G. Corser against the
Brattleboro Overall company, the decis-
ions which were given in The Phoenix
last week, have been received in Brattle-
boro. The opinion in only one suit, that
involving combined metallic buckle and
button-holder, or hole, was obtainable last
week. The decision in that suit was in IA
vor of the plaintiff, and the opinion was as
announced.
The suit on letters patent No. 364,2l9,
granted to the plaintiff, was for an in
fringement on an alleged improvement in
coats and the method of making them.
The improvement relates to the putting on
of collars. The court holds that the al
legged improvement is simply a change in
the form and arrangement of the constitu-
ent parts, and is not patentable. 1t in
wolves a matter of judgment producing
good workmanship and not a matter of in
vention producing distinctively new
method.
The suit on letters patent No. 366, 621,
granted to the plaintiff, was for an in.
fringement on an alleged improvement In
overalls provided with a back extending
substantially above the waist-band, where
by the customary strap connecting the sus-
penders is dispensed with and means of
protecting the back Immediately below the
shoulder blades, and excluding cinders is
afforded. The opinion says that as soon
as the want of high back, as well as
high front, should be felt the exercise of
mechanical skill without inventive genius
would provide it. The plaintiff appears to
have exercised good judgment and high
skill about this, but not inventive genius
or faculty in construction or discovery.

AN EARLY MORNING FIRE.
House owned by G. n. LamsOn aud Oc-
cupied by Mrs. Mary circuit Partially
Destroyed.

House owned by G. n. Lamson aud Oc-
cupied by Mrs. Mary circuit Partially
Destroyed.
The two-story frame dwelling house
owned by G. b. Lamson, situated few
rods south of the west end of Washington
street, was destroyed by fire Just before
daylight yesterday morning There we're
two tenements in the building, but the one
on the east end was empty. The west ten
ement was occupied by Mrs. Mary Orcutt
and her children, Iva, Nora and Peter Or
cult, and adopted daughter FIVE years old
and Mrs. Orcutt's brother, Alonzo Fra
zier.
Peter circuit occupied room in the L
of the building upstairs. A short time
before O'Clock he was awakened by a
cracking sound, but he paid little atten-
ton to it as he thought his uncle was
building fire. In few minutes, how
ever, the smoke rushed into his room. He
jumped out of bed and aroused the other
members of the household and then ran
barefooted to the fire alarm box at the
corner of Washington and Central streets
and rang in the alarm. A crowd of people
was soon present, and by the time the fire
department arrived practically all of the
household goods had been removed to a
place of safety.
The department was at the scene in
fairly good time, but there was delay in
getting stream of water on to the build
ing as the supply of hose which was car
ried by the first hose-cart that arrived was
insufficient to reach from the hydrant,
which is located near the alarm box, to
the building More hose soon arrived, and
the fire, which made 7ery slow progress,
was eXtinguished in short time. The I.
was entirely destroyed and the main part
of the building was Quilted.
1t is impossible to tell how the fire orlgi-
mated, although Mrs. circuit has theory
that it was incendiary. She says rail
road man formerly visited at the house
frequently until he was informed that his
presence was no longer agreeable. This
man drove up to the house about midnight
one night last week, but no sooner did he
poke his head through the door than the
eldest daughter seized him by his coat col
lar land ere he could retreat she stood him
on his head" The railroad man swore
with the speed of a freight train and
wound up by declaring that he would
visit them again with fire and ashes"
The building was insured through c. F.
K. Jenne's agency for $1,000 in the Com
mercial Union Assurance company of
London. The loss was about $500. Mrs.
circuit and family will live for the present
at "a Elliot street.
