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

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

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

As an evidence of the usefulness

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.”

that James Gordon Bennet, who began

that Manton Marble, who, ten years ago

f* The story of St. Patrick’s expul

known to every one. Some writers have
supposed that tho tradition shonld bo in

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

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
