“Some of the prtstended friends
>f the farmers deprecate their med
l&ng with the question of the tariff.
|Tkis is the just question that con
perns the farmers most of all. It is
j* rational t demand transportation
Wf milroad and at the same time iii
pst on maintaining in force the pres
ent dnties on iron, of which the rail
roads are built. Everything that
inters into the construction of rail
loads is enhanced in cost by the ex
jfetions of the tariff, and this fact fur
ishes an argument to the railway i
nuiagers for retaining their present
Schedule of freight and fares. While
üblio demand is being made upon
ic railroads to reduce their rates,
t it be made entirely possible by
lowing them to procure cheap tna
irial for constructing their lines.”
IST The Albany Argus sajß: “It
; gratifying to know that the feeling
I New York city is strongly in fa
or of hearty union. The people
ill follow where leaders in whom
icy confide shall indicate. There is
disposition to dictate; only a
earning for hearty and effective co
>eration. There is no reason not to
ad confident that this desire for unity
ill be gratified. Complications will
b smoothed away, and no differen
?* allowed of a nature perilous to
ccess. In the full assurance of this
spicious result the Democracy of
te interior confidently prepare for
te coming campaign. Sound princi
es have been steadily gaining
rengtb for years. Give them vigor

COLLI'HK IS Til* FaSHMNS.— A

The New York Journal of

in tlie harmony of the new move

their jest men to take tho lead,

A Warning.
A man died in Worcester, Mass.,
tho oilier day, whose career ought to
be for young men the most effectual
of temjierawe lecture*. Twelve years
ago he was a young lawyer in Con
necticut, of uncommon abilities and
brilliant promise. -He entered the
army and rose to the rank of colonel,
but he became addicted to drink and
rapidly sank to the grade of a drunk
aid. While intoxicated otic night?
in a low den in that city, he was
“ shanghied ” aboard a bark hound
for China. The vessel was wrecked
off St. Helena, and lie, with several
others, was rescued and taken to
Cape Town. Here, while engaged
iti a debauch,he was arrested and im
prisoned, and afterwards hired to a
Dutch farmer; where lie worked with
Hottentots. Escaping, lie shipped
on a trading vessel through the
straits of Madagascar, where ho de
serted, and lived lor some time
among the natives of the island.
Narrowly escaping murder, lie after
wards put to sea in an open boat,
was picked up and taken to Cape
Town, and then to Singapore. For
several years lie wandered about in
China and Japan, a poor, drunken
vagabond; finally landed in San
Francisco in a state of beggary, and
made his way across the continent.
His friends heard of |Km as a bar
tender in a miserable saloon in Eliza
beth, N. J., sick arid broken down,
and took him homo to die, a worn
out debauchee, at the ago of tliiriy
six.
Important to tiiic I.vsuhkh. —Tho
Hartford Times states that the /Etna
Insurance Company of that city, had
been obliged to pay $2,000 on a pol
icy which never was issued, and
which it never intended to issue. A
special agent took tho application of
a man named Tall, at Prairie Du
Cliien, Wis.,aml sent it to the general
agent, who sent it to the homo office.
The home office declined the risk,
writing upon it “not approved,” and
it was returned to the general agent,
who notified the special agent. Hut
the latter neglected to notify tho ap
plicant. The Judge of the United
States District Court of Wisconsin
ruled that it was their duty to notify
Tuft w ithin u reasonable time of his
non-acceptance, so tliulhe might have
obtained insurance elsewhere; that
tho failure of the agent to notify Taft
that he was not insured, was the
fuilure of the company likewise.

Hotiftiin.i: Death. —The Washing
ton Garotte says:
A young man named Turner, liv
ing near Diuihurg, in this county,
died on Saturday after a few days ill
ness, and it is supposed from (lie lot
lowing singular cause: Some days
previous to his attack he assisted in
the disintermeut of a corpse, for the
purpose of removal to another place
of burial. The body had been buried
some months, and was exceedingly
offensive when the grave was opened.
Young Turner began to complain of
head-ache and other symptoms soon
after the removal, and in a few days
became seriously ill, and died on
Saturday. He complained during his
entire illness of smelling and even
lasting the horrible eflluvia nrising
from the corpse. It is supposed that
this eftluvia or exhalation penetrated
and saturated his entire system, thus
poisoning his blood and causing death.
We hear that a brother of his is also
very ill from the same cause, though
wedo not know that the report is
authentic.

pay of Congressmen was $0 per day.
It was raised after the war, and then

their back pay for that Congress. In

Searching the World for the
Kansas Murderers. —An agent of
the Spcoial Detective Agency of New
York, is now iu Paris in pursuit of
the Bender family, who are charged
with being the authors of the whole
sale murders lately discovered at
Cherry valle, Kansas. Detectives from
the same agency have been sent to
London and all the leading Kuropean
cities. One of the accused, Johanna,
or, as she is commonly known, Kate
Bender, is quite young, has red hair,
and is a person of rather repulsive
features, with a furtive and distrust
ful expression. She was seen on a
steamer which left New York for
Havre, and it is supposed that the
whole family are at present concealed
iu the French capital or in the envi
rons. Kate Bernier is possessed of
some education, and is said to be
able to speak a little French. If
they are really in France, now that
the police are on their track, it will
be impossible for them long to escape
detection.
It appears that the world is to he
ransacked that these murderers may
bo caught. It is most singular that,
w ilh the strongly marked character
istics of all four members of this in
famous family, they have escaped de
tection so long.— Paris American

Brought Back to Life.
A curious story of the bringing to
life of a man who had committed sui
cide by hanging at Val-de-Grace,
Canton Friburg, is told by the Con
feder'e. On the first "diagnosis the
doctors affirmed that asphyxia was
complete; the body gave not the
slightest sign of life, it being blue
and rigid. One of the physicians
present, however, would not leave
the corpse without making a final
experiment on it. He uncovered
the breast, and attempted for some
time to jnduce respiration by artificial
means, but without result. He then
applied the pole of an electric bat
tery to the passage of the pneunio
grastic nerves, and caused a strong
current to pass at intervals of foiir
seconds. Almost immediately feeble
signs of respiration reappeared. Five
minutes afterward the radical pulse
and the cardiac pulse again became
perceptible. The epiglotis was tu
mified, and it was necessary to pull
the tongue out of the mouth by means
of a pair of pincers, in order to ren
der the respiration freer. A few
ounces of blood were then drawn
from the mediocepbalic vein. The
dilated pupils contracted gradually,
and the signs of life became more
and more manifest. The patient was
then able to swallow a small quan
tity of alcohol Finally a slight
muscular contraction was perceptible
without the intervention of electric
ity; the sensibility of cornea re-ap
peared; then the fee\ became warm
again, and soon after the regular pul
sations of the carotid arteries were
easily perceptible.

seventy years of age, who lived a
mile or two in the country, and noted
for his recklessness and utter defiance
of the laws of God, came into town
one day, and passing down the street,
cried out that he inteuded to spread
the cholera over the town. He then
went to an undertaker and wanted to
know if he could make him a coffin,
and what he would charge. The re
ply was, that if he wanted it before
his death lie would charge him twen
ty-five dollars, but if after, he would
only charge fourteen dollars. He
told him to proceed with the matter,
but to be sure to make it out of two
inch plank, and leave it open at both
ends, so that if the devil came in at
one end, he could escape at the other.
That night lie was stricken down
with the cholera, and by morning
was a corpse.
