Sew Albany.

A colored woman, Kate Ridlev, died suddenly at her home on Lsam Hill last evening. A rumor was circulated to-day that her-husband, Bernley Ridley, had Ktruck her over the head Saturday n'ght and that the blow occasion her death. The Coroner is investigating the affair.

Lafayette.

LAKAYKTTE, June 7.—The well-known wholesale liquor-dealer. .John G. Metzger. died yesterday at his residence on North street. His disease was cancer on the tongue. He has been a resident of La fayetie nearly thirty years, and was a good citizen. He was fifty-two years old.

LAFAYETTE, .June 7.—Thetown of Dayton and vicinity, seven miles east of this city, are considerably excited over a case of criminal carelessness which resulted in the almost instant death of a young man named Tigliman Whetzle. There was a gathering of several well-known farmers at the house of Aaron Cams, four miles east of Dayton, yesterday. Amon^ those present were Henry Fretz and Tighiuan Whetzle', both warm friends. A playful exercise of these two was wrestliug and and "scuttling," and whenever they would meet they would indulge in that sort of ."port.

Yesterday when they met they had a scuttle, in which Whetzle tripped Fretz and threw him. They laughed heartily over it, and seemed to enjoy it greatly. Fretz sat down on a chair and pulled from his pocket his revovler—a twenty-two caliber, small—and pointing it up, as he supposed, over the head of Wheitzle. pulled the trigger. A moment afterward Wheitzle stepped aside

and

fell to the grou ill. The party then discovered that lie inul been shot in the right breast. He du-w in a few seconds. He was placed under arrest and brought before Justice Weaver^ this morning, held to bail in the sum of $5,000, which security he gave, lie seems very sorry at the result of his carelessness, as he and Wheitzle were fast friends and he would not knowingly have harmed him in the least. .Justice Weaver appointed Wednesday as the day for the preliminary examination. Fretz deserves censure for his carelessness. The reckless handling of dangerous weapons is a practice people who have arrived at the years of discretion should not countenance.

Plymouth.

PLYMOUTH, 1NI., June 7.—George Hutchinson, a well known farmer, "was kicked in the temple to-day by a vicious horse and so badly injured that ho cannot possibly recover. He leaves a large family in comfortable circumstances.

fiiDORVtLLF.,

June 7.—Jessee Adding-

ion, a farmer living about four miles south-west from here, while out riding this afternoon, was thrown from his carriage and had his collar bone broken. At the present writing he is in a critical condition.

Lofran*port.

LoOASaPOivr, June 7.—While Silas and Daniel Gorman were plowing in a field a mile south of the city, on Saturday evening, they exhumed a small box, which, on examination, proved to contain the remains of a half decomposed infant. The Coroner was summoned and made an examination of the body. He has not yet returned a verdict, but it is understood thai believes the child came to its ifaath from natural causes. The spot where it lay buried is an out of the way place, witli no bouses nea^ and the grave showed evidence of having been hastily made. The matter will be placed in the hands of the officers to be looked Into. The case excites much interest.

Grren*t»nnc.

GRRENSBmo. June 7.—Twelve miles north of here, surrounded

by

the most

beautiful farming land in the county, where each one sits uudsr his own vine and ftg tree." with "none to molest or make afraid,** lies the village of Clarksburg. Its inhabitants are peaceful, and the denizens of the burg ait at their doors and listen to the cheering of tne

bees, they thank God they are allowed to live in so goodly a place. About two weeks ago, before Esquire Burrows, a case was tried in which the veracity of certain parties was called in question, and much bad blood engendered. Two of the witnesses became excited, and this evening, meeting for the first time, they passed a few hot words recrimination followed upon recrimination, when at last a son of Hon. Wm. Vanarsdall, proposed fight, when his opponent, Dave Worth, drew his pistol. Vanarsdall. not knowing what fear is, immediately drew his gun, when the firing became general along the line. Each fired four shots without effect, as far as they were individually concerned, but Ed. Evans, a harmless "looker-on in Vienna," caught one shot in the arm, inflicting, it is thought, a dangerous wound. By this time the crowd of people had recovered from their panic, and the combatants were disarmed and placed under arrest. Both parties stand high in the community. Their hasty action is much regretted by the people. Both men are nerve to the backbone, and it is feared the end is not yet. At last accounts Evans was resting a little easier.

JlyHterlous Murder.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, June 7.—The body of Mrs. Nancy Duncan, late a resident of Council Bluffs, was discovered buried near Pacific City, Mills County, last Sunday afternoon, under circumstances that lead to the belief that she had been foully murdered. The body had evidently been transported some distance, as it was fly-blown. It was wrapped in a common coverlet, and tied about the middle of the body with a rope. On the left temple was a contused spot, and at the jugular vein was a deen cut an inch long, severing the vein ana causing death. Later developments show almost conclusively that her son, William Duncan, perpetrated the deed. The officers are on liis track. There is much mystery about the matter but the above are the substantial facts.

Tas Bender Henspecked. .a.ny sheutleman vot vill go around your fpee, and talk in front of your back about someting8 is a shvindler I hear dot Brown says veek pefore next apout me I vas a hensh pecked huspand.

DKUVBRANCE.—A German turner In Philadelphia, who has persistently neglected to support his wife, a little body with a careworn face, explained his reasons in court the other day: "Veil, shudge, I manifactersvatchmen's rattles, der beet vot's made, but dot woman's tongue beats my rattle®. She had me in briaon elefen days 'cause I got insane (tapping his head), shust on agount of her tongue. Dere's not anudder tongue in town like it I can't go from home in de morning midout de devil's let loose. She's enuf to set a man vild ven she gets loose mit her tongue." The magistrate manifested his sympathy in a strange but practical fashion. He committed the prisoner to the house of correction for three months, where the poor man will have complete deliverance from the rattle of that woman's tonga*.

Cliaucellor Haven on Sea-Sickness. Chancellor Haven, who was a passenger on the City of Chester, from New York, aud was uot sea-sick, has written a paper on the subject of sea-sickness for tlie Syracuse Northern Christian Advocate, in" which he savs: "My theory of sea-sickness requires first that you should know the cause. Now, the cause is that you are subjected on shipboard to a chronic succession of earthquakes. Whatever will neutralize earthquakes will cure it. You look at the side of your room, it is going down, down, lown. Then it creaks und turns about and goes up, up, up. Then it wriggles. Now one corner tips in one angle, and now another corner tips in another angle. You start to pick up your hat ana run against your room-mate, or plunge against the wall your head begins to swim, and you begin either to shrink into helplessness or to resist and trv to straighten- things out. You say, "l'his shall not be,' or you cower down like a wretch. Now for "the cure. Just let it rock. Remember earthquakes nrtw are according to the order of nature.' Put your mind into a condition expressed in some such words as tht*se 'Rock away This is grand This is pushing ahead nobly over the waves! Why shouldn't you rock? You are strong as the wisdom of men can make vou. Turn entirely over if you want to. Icebergs

could not crush you. And if

they should, what then? We might ns well die at sea as on land, and it would be a noble death.' By that time your threatened weakness will begin to disappear, and you will feel like running, though, if you attempt it, you may find yourself engaged in a dance. In other words, you must consent to let the ship toss

about without any muscular

or mental uneasiness, and then nil tendency to sickness will disappear. Some seem to do this unconsciously others will not do it until they are fairly driven to it by an exhaustion that makes them incapable of noticing anything. If you cannot do this—why just succumb to it No medicine can cure you

TURKISH BATHS.

OPINIONS OF PHYSICIANS AND EMINENT MEN.

Where the bath is the practice of the people, there are no diseases of the skin. All cases of inflammation are subdued. Gout, rheumatism, sciatica, or stone in the bladder, cannot exist where it is con scicntiously and sedulously employed as a cufative means. As to consumption, that scourge of England, that pallid spectre which sits in every tenth domestic hearth, it is only unknown where the bath is practiced, but is curable by its means.—l). Urquhart, M. D., "PiUars of Hercult*.

From testimony so diffused and disinterested, the conclusion naturally flows that the bath is a most salutary means of health, and demands the serious consideration of the profession, as a great addition to the resources of the heating art.—British Medical Journal.

These baths can be obtained on application to A. H. DEPUY, M. D. 117 North Sixth
