U? THE MOHS’ den. AN APPALLING AND HOUKinUE OCCCBBEXCE— THBKK or »OBC(SOX*S CIBCTS met kiixjcd AND FOUR SHOCKINGLY LACERATED BY SAVAGE REA STS. From the Middletown (Missouri) Banner. Upon Stirling out from Cincinnati for the season, the management of James Ilobinsons’J circus and annimal show de termined to produce something novel in tlie way of a band charriot, and conceived «lie idea of mounting the band upon the eoltossal den of jPerforming Xumidian lions, and which would form one of the principal and most imposing features of the show. Although repeatedly warned by Pro fessor Sexton that ho deemed the cages insecure and dangerous iu the extreme, the managers still persisted in compelling the band to ride upon it Nothing how ever, occurred nntil the fatal morning of the 12th. _ , The band took their places and the procession commenced to move amid tlie shouts of the multitude of rustics who had assembled to witness the grand pa geant and hear the enlivening strains of music. Not a thought of danger was en tertained by anyone, but the awful catas trophe was about to occur. As the driver endeavored to make a turn in the streets the leaders became en tangled and threw the entire train into confusion, and he lost control of them, i»ud becoming frightened they broke into :i violent run. Upon the opposite side of the street the fore-wheel of the cage came in contact with a large rock with such force as to cause the braces and stanch ions which supported the roof to jjivc way, ta. In the Supreme Court, on the 14th inst., the following cases were de cided: Wm. Q. Cross vs. iYoung Cross; suit on administrator's bond from Lee; judg ment of the court below affirmed. W. U. Blankinship et al. va. the State; this was tlie case of the Webster couuty Road Commissioners, who were fined by Judge Harrel $50 each for neglect of du ty; the judgment of the court below was affirmed. (ireou KetcJieas vs. the Stab-; assault with intent to murder; from Leo; judg ment of lower court affirmed. Mathews vs. Browning; possessory warrant from Webster; judgment re versed on the ground that the court erred in ordering the money paid over to the plaintiff iu the warrant, it being the opinion of the court that the Ordinary, as the successor of the Inferior Court, had jurisdiction to issue the li fa in question. James M. Shivers, executor, vs. the Ordinary of Stewart county for the nse of Armisted and Abner S. Goare; suit on guardian’s bond from Webster; judgment of tho court below reversed on the ground that the court erred iu holding that the acceptance and enjoyment of the legacy did not estop the legatees from bringing the suit for an acconnt of tho testator’s doings as guardians. Cameron vs. Keraley; ejectment from Lee, judgment reversed on the ground that tho court erred in admitting the copy grant to be read in evidence to the jury, the plaintiff not stating as the rule of conrt requires, that he did not know Day’s Work of an Insane Negro Wo man.—On Thnnday last, June 9th an insane colored woman, Sarah Williams’ living at A. C. Williams’ inHarris county, near Wisdom’s store, went into the house of William Hill, colored, and beat him and his wife severely, and from there to Mr. A. C. Williams’ and beat hi* wife two little daughters seriously. The recovery of one of tho children was des paired of nntil Thursday morning, when she seemed convalescent. She then went from there to Mrs. Rivers, a widow lady, but finding the house closed, and the family within, accomplished no mishcliief besides breaking out tho glass -with a stick. She journeyed to several places, but was prevented from doing any harm. She is at this time in Hamilton jail waiting to hear from the authorities of the asylum to see if she will be received.—Colmnhnt Sun. at first of the band “ticipated. Forty of the sixty counties thereby precipitating the entire band into the awful pit below. For an instant the vast crowd were paralyzed with fear, but for a moment ouly,and then arose such a shriek of agony as was never heard before. Tho awful ... groans of terror and agony which nroso j the original giant was. from the poor victims who were being j torn, and lacerated by the frightful mon- i B?&- The Democratic victory ■tiers below, was heart-rending and sicken- York is more complete than ««*• ing to a terrible degree. ' Every moment sumo would extricate themselves from tho de bris and leap over the sides of tlie cage to tho ground with a wild spring and fuiut away upon striking tho earth, so great was their terror. Rut human nature could not stand to see men liter ally devonrod before their very eyes, for t here were willing hearts and strong arms, ready to render every assistance necessa ry to rescue the unfortunate victims of this shocking calamity. A hardware store which happened to stand opposite was invaded by the re quest .of the noble-hearted proprietor, and pitch-forks, crow-bars and long bars of iron, and in fact every available weap on was brought into requisition. The side-doors of the cage wero quickly torn from their fastenings, and then a horrible sight was presented |to view. Mingled *nmong the brilliant uniforms of the poor unfortunates lav legs, arms, torn from their sockets and half devoured, while the savage brutes glared ferociously with their sickly green-colored eyes upon tho petri fied crowd. Professor Charles White ar rived at this moment and gave orders in regard to extracting the dead and wound ed—he well knowing it would be a diffi cult and dangerous undertaking to re move them from the infuriated monsters. Stationing men with forks and bars at every available point, he sprang fearless ly into the den amid the monsters and commenced raising tlie wonnded and passing them upon the outside to their friends. He had succeeded in removing the wounded, and was proceeding to gather up the remains of the lifeless, when the mammon th lion, known to show men as old Nero, sprang with a fearful r upon his keeper, fastening his teeth and claws in his neck and shoulders, lac erating him in a horrible manner. Pro fessor White made three hercnlean efforts to shake the monster ofl', but without avail, and gave orders to fire upon him. The contents of four of Colt’s navys were immediately poured into the carcass of the ferocious animal, and he fell dead; and tho brave little man, notwithstand ing the fearfnl manner in which he was wounded, never left the cage until every vestige of the dead was carefully gathered together and placed upon a sheet, pre paratory for burial. It was found that three of the ten wero killed outright, and four others terribly lacerated. The names of tho killed are Schoer, Conrad Freiz, and Charles Greiner. Coffins were procured and immediate burial de termined upon, as tho bodies were so frightfully torn and lacerated as to be un- recognizeable to their most intimate friends. The lions are the same ones which nearly cost Prof. Charles White his life two years ago, while traveling with th« Thayer & Noyes party, and wero known to tie a very dangerous cage of animals. Platform of the South Carolina Union Reform Party. We copy from the proceedings ported in the Charleston papers of yester day the following platform of tlie reform party of our sister State The Convention, representing the citi zens of South Carolina, irrespective of party, assembled to organize the good people of the State in an effort to reform the present incompetent extravgant, prejudiced and corrupt administration of the State government and establish just and equal laws, order, harmony and economy in public exjxmditurcs. and a strict accountability of the office holders, and the election to office only of men of known honesty and integrity, both de clare and announce tlie following princi ples, upon which the men of all parties may unite for the purpose aforesaid : 1. The Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution of tho United States, hav ing been by the proper authorities pro claimed and ratified by the requisite number of States, and having been reived and acquiesced in os the law iu the States of the Union, ought to l»e fair ly administered and faithfully ol>eyed fundamental law. 2. The vast changes in onr system of government brought by the international war between the two sections of the co try, and follow in its train, are so for corporated into the constitutions and laws of the State and of the United States to require that they be regarded os varieties having the force and obligation of law. 4. This solemn and complete recogni tion of existing laws brings the people of South Carolina into entire harmony upon all questions of civil and political right, and shonld unite all honest men in an earnest determination to establish a just, equal and faithful administration of the government, in the interest of no class or clique, and for the benefit of a united people. The committee also recommended the adoption of the following: Jteeolved, That this organization lie known as the Union Reform Party of South Caroling, As an evidence of the usefulness and enjoyment of public parks, the facts may be recalled that in the course of a singJe year more than 5,000,000 people visit Central Park in New York—five times the population of New York, Brook lyn, and all the surrounding towns—or an average of five visit* to every man, wo man, and child in these place*. liveredof a colored child. A sot coocheo of Ben Hill's was the Lothario in the case. -How to write a wrong: put it on of the State have given Democratic ma jorities, and the Democrats have about twenty thousand ’majority, excluding that cast in New York city. It has been tomary for tho Radicals to declare that the State was overbalanced by the city, and declare that the rural districts were always true to the principles of that par ty. This plank lias uow been taken from them. Strike from the majorities on the Democratic side of the liook, all those returned from large cities and towns, and still Mr. Church is elected by a de cided majority. Revolutions in opinions usually begin in cities, in tho active tres of capital, trade and business. The peoplu of these localities first feel the effects of bad legislation, of corrupt laws, blundering, dishonest officials. Trade first stagnates in these marts, and taxes and expenses here earliest develop their hurtful influence. These facts account for the reaction which has taken place the cities and towns in tho land. But of negro equality has reached rural districts with accelerated speed. It did not linger in the towns. The j»eo- ple of the whole country feel the degra dation and danger of raising negroes to a social and political equality with white men, ami the resnlt iu the interior of New York is a fitting response to the policy and legislation of the Radical par ty upon that subject. White meu in all tlie agricultural portions of the State re pudiated the Radical platform at the late election, denounced tho 15th Amendment as a swindle and a fraud, and supported the Democratic party, its principle and its meu. At last the rural parts of the nation are aronsed, and when this column moves, the end of Radical authority has come. s • Disgraceful if True.—A correspod- ent of the Cincinnati Enquirer says, in a special from New York, 13tl»: Information received from correspond ents who have just returned from Har risburg shows that President Grant’s trip to Pennsylvania was, from the start, in tended to be a big spree, and it was such from first to last. The excursion was ar ranged mainly for the purpose of enabling the President to escape the restraint un der which he was laboring in Washington, and which he was desirous of throwing off while the guest of General Cameron at Harrisburg. The President took every advantage offered him for recreation and enjoyed himself most successfully. The sources whence these facts are derived every way trustworthy, and there seems tn be no doubt that the President j indulged J to excess in liquors during the whole time lie was a guest of General Cameron’s house. We doubt the truth of this statement, and must say that the man who would deliberately invent such a scandal for partisan purposes shonld be held up to public scorn.—Sac llep. Tn Northern circles, a reunion of the graduates of the United States at West Point has lxx-n proposed; and in response to a letter ou the subject from old comrade, Jefferson Davis, to bor row the expression of a eotemporwy, writes in the following “touching thongh playful style.” The extract is copied from the Cincinnati Commercial: “It seems strange that you should be gray; but I trust that your years may yet be many in this world, and that to the end of them your heart may be as green as when we wore the bullet buttons. As to our class, I remember what would in terest me most—the little book in which yon sketched the likenesses of our neatly, when, according to rule, you shonld have been listening to recitations of the lesson.” Spotted Tail thus soothingly writes to Mrs. Spotted Tail, and tlie little Spotted Tails: “The whtte man is like the sands of the sea. His lints are like the trees of the forest His horses ore iron. Their speed is lightning. He has a little wire that goes over the great conntiy. It reaches a hundred nations. He blows throngh tho wire. The white man is a greater blower. The words of his mouth go to the ends of the earth. They call up worriers and Summon men to the council Bnt the soul of the Spotted Tail knows no fear.” SHOES!

A correspondent of the Chicago Re publican gives some interesting figures touching the success of the leading news paper men iff New York. He tells ua that James Gordon Bennet, who began the Herald with $200 or $300 borrowed money, is now worth over $5,000,000; that Manton Marble, who, ten years ago wna a task writer on the Erening Post, at $25 a week, is at present sole owner of the Worltl, value at least $500,000, and has an income of $75,000 a year ; that Henry J. Raymond, at the time of his death, was worth $300,000, and made eve ry cent of it out of the Timm; that Hor ace Greeley, with all his carelessness of money, could not lie sold out for $150,- 000, though he made his entry into the metropolis a poor printer’s boy, with all his fortune in a small bundle of clothes swung on a stick; and that James and Erast us Brooks have estates valued at more than $150,000 each, nil mode from earnings os owners of the Repress. The value of the estate of Wm. Cullen Bryant, of the Eeenbuj Post, is estimated at from $000,000 to $800,000 ; and tho income of Henry C. Bowen is put down at from $90,000 to $100,000 a vear. f* The story of St. Patrick’s expul sion of venomous reptiles from Ireland is known to every one. Some writers have supposed that tho tradition shonld bo in terpreted iu a metaphorical sense, .and that the worship of demons or of ser pents was abolished by tlie Saint In any case, the fact that the island was free from these reptiles is mentioned by several early historians, and a native bishop says, in a Latin poem of the ninth century, that in Irekadftoo ser pent creeps throngh the gras* and no frog chatters in the lakes.” This latter phenomenon remained true till the early part of the eighteenth century, when a fellow Of Trinity College, Dublin, im ported some frog-spawn from England, and placed it in the ditehee. Since then, frogs have spread over the country, several attempts have also been made to introduce vipers and other snakes, but, apparently, they hare not survived long.
