A WHITE tunl OF CLINTOXCOUNTY, ! visits xasiivilie ix rout. pant with a young negro THEY TAKE A ROOM AT A COLOR. ED HOTEL. ASO ARE ARRESTED AFTER MinXIOHT. From tlio XiuhvlUu Union and American.] The chief of police of this city re ceived a telegram yesterday afternoon from Wilmington, Clinton county, Ohio, stating that a liberal reward would lx* paid for the arrest of a ne gro boy about eighteen years of age and a white girl two or three years junior, who had left that place in company last Monday. Officers ho lov Pitts and lloltou set about to work up the case, and at 12:30 this morning arrested the pair at the Harding House, a negro hotel, on Cherrv street, where they had engag ed a roopi and stopped for the night. Upon being brought to the station house, both the prisoners manifested considerable uneasiness, and the ■riming lady at first shed tears, but af terwards became more calm. Her name is Hattie Budduek, and she is apparently about, sixteen years old. She seems to have been reared in respectable society; has a pleasant countenance and converses intelligent ly. She was neatly attired in a black silk dress, striped shawls and a set of furs. She says her father is a farmer living near the town mentioned above and is in good circumstances. She’met the negro at the house of a school mate, and they started for his home in blount county, Tennessee She pa rents with the intention of marrying him, and says she loves him as well as she could love any man. The negro, whose name is .Tames Boworman had lived with her father for three years, and the family all thought a great deal of him. She sometimes thought she had done wrong, and then again she would come to the conclusion that she did not care. She had been induced to leave home on accouut of treatment Yecoived at the hands of her mother. Her sisters had told their mother things about her that caused her to be harshly treated. The negro is near twenty years of age, stammers badly in conversation, and does not seem to be much enam ored of his fair companion, stoutly deuying having had any intention of marrying her. He says lie had noth ing to do with inducing her to leave home; that she left of her own accord. The girl and her colored attendant brought a large basket and a valise with them, which were deposited at the police headquarters. A dispatch was sent to the young Indie’s father notifying him.of her arrest. HE WO ELI) si SO. Mr. Glover, who lived in the village of S„ in Connecticut, was a rich man, and as profane and rough as he was rich. But, if his character was rough, his voice is still rougher; and when, at times, he broke out suddenly' hi church, and tried to help the singers, the effect was terrible, and almost made the men in the choir swear in the midst of a hymn, ft came to pass that the old-fashioned Presbyterian Church in S. needed remodeling. Mr. Glover headed the subscription list with $">00, which was a large sum for those days. The church was at length finished, and a day appointed for its rededication. When the day arrived the church was packed with people. Six white-cravated, digified clergy men occupied the pulpit, and Mr. Glover occupied his old seat in one of the corner pews at the right of the preachers. The choir had prepared themselves by a three weeks’ rehears al for the event, and had arranged to open the exercises with a “set piece.’ Now, the gentle Mr. Glover never be came “acquainted with a tune” in his life, and hence the strange one select ed by the choir was quite as familiar as any other. The singers began, and Mr. Glover joined them with n loud voice, but instead of helping them he broke them down. Rev. Mr. Barn hart, the pastor of the chureh, with out looking at Air. G., arose! and re marked that he “trusted the congre gation would refrain from singing the opening anthem as it was one the choir had been practising, and they alone were acquainted with it. As he* said this he was careful not to look at the source of annoyance in fact he gazed solemnly and steadfast ly at a fly on the ceiling; but Air. Glover knew whom the preacher meant, and he looked defiantly to ward the pulpit The choir, suppos ing the way was clear this time, com menced again, “I was glad when they said, etc.” Brother Glover with a roar like a whole herd of “bulls of B:i --shen,” bellowed forth, “I was glad.’ (He tried for he was mad) and again the singers stopped in rage and mortification. This time the preach er turned and faced the disturber, and in a firm but mild voice siad, “Mr. Glover, you are not familiar with the opening piece, and you only destroy the effect of it, and break down the singers by trying to help them. AVill you please remain silent?" All eyes were instantly aimed at Air. Glover, who, returning the gaze of his beloved pastor, replied, “Look a here, Mr. Barnhart, I paid SSOO to ward repairing this ’ere d—d old gos pel box, and by thunder I will sing.” Divorce Suits in New England.— The general uneasiness in regard to* the prevalence of divorce suits, and the present loose ideas of the mar riage tie, does not seem to affect the Vermonters much. Very recently wo were informed that the States had granted a charter incorporating the Freelovers’ Society at Vulcour, and now a bill has been introduced into the Legislature making drunkenness a cause of divorce. They have a pro hibitory law in Vermont, it is true, but they don’t like liquor in Connec ticut either, and yet the divorces there are compared with marriags as one to eight, and if this drunken di vorce bill is to pass in Vermont, wouldn't it be just as well for that State to join the Valcour community at once? THE OWL. The most wonderful thing about an owl, says Josh billings, is the solium importance of the whole kritter, as lie sits on his perch, looking over the world he seems to own. Next to a newly elected Justice of the Peace, seated on the bench, with a poor cuss before him charged with stealing ft loaf of bread, the owl has j more rare and unfathomable wisdom ! in his face than enny thing ancient or modern. 1 have looked at them half an hour stiddy, until J wuz ashamed uv uiv impudence, to see if they \xinlet, mid I did not see them do it. I A’ouUl thank sonic one to tell me if an owl ever duz wink, and if he j duz, how often ? | This would be a good subject, for | some debating society in enny of our i colleges. Answers to this phenomena, post j paid, respectfully solicited. The owl bilds his nest in sum va kant hollow ova tree, and lays how many eggs I kant tell, but sum where i j less than a hundred l am sure. This stands to reazou and reazon \ seldom lies. Owls are not luvly to eat; no mat- j ter how you fry them, they resemble j in flavor the meat of a yaller dog, if j enny know liow that tastes. I don’t. , , j I have shot owls; its ft good deal j like shooting into a feather pillow;. they are full feathered from their toe miiis clean up to the base of then bills, and when the feathers are pikt | | off from them, they shrink as bad as ! sum other things I know uv with the j cotton ail taken out. Owls are plenty, but I don’t know [ az this is enny thing in theii favor. PostofUcu Keviimcs—Compulsory News paper Postage. 1 The annual report of Hon. E. Ah Barber, Third Assistant Postmaster ! General, shows that during the last j fiscal year there were issued 032,733,- 000 adhesive postage stamps, valuad at $1,285,245; also 118,000.000 stam ped envelopes, valued at $3,001,000; 01,000,000 of postal cards and $220,- 00(1 worth of newspaper wrappers, some 10,000,000 in number; total in- I crease in value over last year’s issues $1,668,448, or over 8 per cent. The ! estimate for cost of these supplies for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1876 will be $871,000 or about $31,000 less than the amount appropriated for the I current year. The dead-letter office received the past year 4,601,773 letters, represent ing an actual or nominal value of sl,- 637,429, exclusive of jewelry enclos- I tires. Letters representing of this amount $3,900,868 have been returu -led to the owners, and the rest are ■ held for reclmation. All*. Barber re commended that postmasters be sup i plied with indellible ink with which I to cancel stamps, and says five ger . cent, of all stamps sold during the year j are washed, occasioning a loss of i $1,000,000 iii the department of rev 's eniie. The report describes the plan dc- I vised by the third assistant and approved by the Postmaster j General, for collecting newspaper j postage under the prepayment law, | which is to go into effect next Janua ! ry. This system provides, in brief, I for prepayment by stamps affixed to a memorandum of mailing; or, in other i words, to stub in a book retained by the postmaster at the mailing office, a reeiept showing the weight of the ! matter and amount paid being given by the postmaster to the person inail | ing the same; the stamps affixed to a stub to be canceled by a cutting j punch. It is expected that notwithstanding j the reduction of rates by the new law 1 this system of compulsory prepay ment of newspaper postage will yield ! a larger revenue than lias ever been ; collected. Comprehensive inquiry seems to j warrant a belief that, in the city of New | York alone not less than six hundred j thousand dollars per annum will be paid, a sum which is little less than one-half of the entire revenue from newspaper postage the United States during the last fiscal year. It is, however, impossible to estimate the actual increase for the whole country, owing to that provis ion of the law which allows free mail circulation of newspapers in the coun ties in which they are printed. Novel Cure for Whooping Cougii. | —The world is full of curious super i stitions. Recently some of the inhab itants of the Isle of Alan have carried I their children to the different mills j during quite an epidemic of whooping I cough. This is in accordance with a I prevalent and time honored idea that | | a cure would he effected if the chil dren were put upon the hopper of a ! mill. On one special Sunday a large number of the children were taken to the Grenaby mill, in the Parish of Malaw, three miles from Castletown, in order to be. subjected to the “charm.” Two hoppers of the mill were crammed full of children, and as soon as they were comfortably and safely settled, the miller caused the wheel to revolve three times, the pa rents, of the children being present at the time. In order to be effica cious, the ceremony must be gone through at a time when the ministers of the district are engaged in preach ing in their pulpits. For this reason, about noon on Sundays is generally the time chosen for the performance of this curious rite. A little romance from the Michigan papers: “Saturday a German resi dent of Chicago, in pursuit of an eloping woman who had lived with him as his wife, stopped at Marshall for dinner. There, to liis overwhelm ing surprise, he found the wife whom he had deserted in Germany eight years before. She was en route to Chi cago, with the intention of discover ing his whereabouts. A reconciliation, reunion and joy ensued, and the cou ple at once departed for the husband’s home in Chicago." SAVAN NAII A I>VKKTISFMENTS. IU L.

Walker's California Vin egar Hitters arc a purely Vecctablo preparation, made chiefly from the na tive herbs fnnrnl <>n the lower rniiffcs of the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the uso of Alcohol. Tlip question is almost daily asked. “What is the cause of tho unparalleled success of Vixroau Hit ters?” Our answer is, that they removo tho cause of disease, and tho patient re covers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of tho system. Never before in tho history of the world lias a medicine been cnmnouiuled possessing tho remarkable qualities ol* VisKOAit BittkHH in healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle" Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs in Bilious lti-eases The properties of Dr. Walker’s TixiiOAit Bum:ns are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera tive, and Anti-Bilious. Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin egar Bitters tho most wonderful In vigovant that ever sustained th“ sinking system. No Person can take these Ritters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their tames are not de stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious, Remittent .and Inter mittent Fevers, which are so preva lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United .states, especially those of tho Mississippi, Ohio. Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, .Savannah, Ro anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual heat and dryness, are ■nvarialily accompanied by extensive de rangements of tlie stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow erful influence upon these various or gans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily remove the dark colored viscid matter witli which tho bowels are loaded, at tlie same time stimulating Hie secretions of the liver, and generally restoring tlie healthy functions of tlie digestive organs. Fortify tho body against disease by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Hitters. No epidemic can take bold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, TTootl aelie, Pain i:i the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Kruclations of the .Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita tation of tho Heart, Inflammation of tho Lungs, Pain in the region of tlie Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertise ment. Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammation*, Mercurial A flection*, Old Sores. Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eves. etc. In these, jis in all oilier constitutional Dis eases, Walker’s Vinegar Dm Kits havo { shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory ami Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.— Persons en gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as 1 [’lumbers, Type-setters, (lold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of tlie Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of Walker’s Yin j EGAr Bitters occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tct tor, Sult-Kheum, Blotches, Spots, Dimples, Pustule.?, Boils, Carbuncles. Ding-worms, Scald-head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas. Itch, Scurfs. Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of tho Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. l’in, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an thelininitics will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo manhood, or tho turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated lilood when over you find its impurities bursting through tho skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or .Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in tho veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and tho health of the system will follow. it. ir. McDonald & co„ DrupgUts and Gen. Apts.. San Francisco, California, and cor. of Washington and Charlton Sts., N. Y.
