ABORTION.—A gentleman {rom Miltord, Kosciusko county, informs us that an-abbrtion was recently produced upon the person of a young lady of that place, named Miss Snyder, by Dr. A. A. Ward, whiich resulted fatally. ' Dr. P. W. Crum, of this place, was present at the post-mor-tem examination, and informs us that the utérine walls ‘were terribly lacerated, cudsﬁlg. beyond a doubt, the poor girl’s, dedth. It appesrs that Miss Snyder had been tying in the family of Mr. Brad-bl}-\ ry, whom she charged with the crime of scducing her; she however exomerated Mr. Bradbury from being in'any manner whatever connected with the crime of abortion. Both . Bradbury’ and ‘Ward were arrested one day last week. The former ‘gave bail for his appearance, while the latter succeeded in escaping, with the lives'of at least two human beings resting upon his soul. Further particulars are unknown tous., ; |

- Our Business MeN.—ln our advertising columps the readers of the BANNER will find 41l our most enterprising and live business men of this county well rapresented. * They invite you ull to call and see them, and examine what they have to sell. If you should wish to buy sny of “their goods or wares, you will find that their prices are as reasonable and their 'stock as good as can be found anywhere, It is well known that those who sell most,

sell’ cheapest, as they, by .h}nQlingi~theif money, once & month, maké as much on one-twelfth the profits as he who uses' his ,money but once a year. Thus’it is that the live business man can sell so much cheaper that the old fogy who gets a etock but once a year. Let all who would ‘get cheap goods, of the latest and most “fashionable styles, patronize those who advertise, as they are the men who deporyg Jt i S o S

Inks, and ‘whilst there noticed some as fine specimens of workmanship if American and | Itilian marble as was'ever chisled in this part of the country. ' Among other works w ot artistic skill we especially admired the beautiful monuments for Wm. Lineb:g:h 1 and John C. Smith, late of Miltbrd, fe: «ceased, and also that of Harvey Guy, Syra«cuse. We doubt whether more beautiful adatble work cai be found in any of the «cemeteries of Northern Indiana. A visit ‘to Mr. Inks’ shop will satisfy any person of the truthfilness of this remark. =~ ° e b i .

Kendaliville Correspondence. ; KENDA;L"VILLE, Apr. 10,’71

EpiTor BANNER :—As anticipated the concert given by the Philharmonic Society on Saturday evening, was a decided ‘success, both in a financial point and in- the character of the entertainment—the aidience being very large and the best| of all, very appreciative, All who attended ‘are enthusiastic in_ their praise of the singing and music. It was undoubtedly the best musical concert yet given in- this city. . And, as I have heard & minister say that “it surpassed the Continentals,”, (althougb he had not ‘heard them publicly), the Doctor’s prophesy in regard to the matter is fulfilled. ' I am informed they intend to give another at no distant. day, and “I will venture the assertion” that if they do, Mitchell Hall will be filled to overflowing. This early. and extended notice is given for two reasons—first, because it is deserved, and secondly, (I hope you won’t put this secondly in italics) because your humble scribbler was made the recipient of a complimentary on account of the BANNER. © ~ , .

Surgical Operation.

LigoNigr, Arrir 10, 1871,

Operation performed by Dr. Latta, of Goshen, assisted by the entire medical staff of Ligonier,' in the removal of an ovarian: tumor from the person of Mrs. Peter Banta, of Noble township. Said tumor, :afge"r’ being emptied of its contents, weighed twenty pounds, and’ the dark tenacious fluid, drawn from the cysts, weighed twenty eight pounds, making in all forty eight pounds. The time occupied in removing the mags, from the first incision to the closing up of the same, was 53 minutes. It was considerably delayed by strong adhesions to the abdomi--ual walls, ' S o

' TrE Succrss.—So far as the operation itself is concerned, it wes good, the same being well and carefully performed. But it is one of those operations that strongly compromise life. The opening of the abdominal cavity.and the cutting or lacerating of sercus membranes, is always liable to be followed by collapse, or severe inflammatory action, and destroy the life of the patient. Quite a pér centage, however, of these operations have saved life, and notwithstanding the exfreme danger attended upod such operations, the’ vatient is entitled Jto};be ‘benefit of its chances, if she and her friends desire it, whicli was the chse in’this instance. :

This tumor had grown to its presént’ enormous size in the space of about eight or ten months, and has been a source of intense suffering, with no prospect of a respite; on the contrary, an increase of the difficulty and in a few months, at the outside, death. i aba Tugsbay, April 11.—8ince writing the above T am ‘informed that Mrs. Banta died this morning. : v ; Q. PAaLMITER, Reporter.

A Woman Barned to Death, and Her Husband also Severely Injured! | CroMWELL, April 10, 1871

© DEAR BANNER :—lt was our sad lot-to witness one of the most heart rending scenes on last evening (Easter Sunday) that has ever before been recorded in this county. The wife of Mr. John D. Hart, and a daughter of Mr. Richard Mayfield, met with her death in a most fearful manner. L e ; }

~ About ten o'clock last night she returned from church, having left her hus'band at home, who, being somewhat in disposed, had retired to bed dod left the lamp burning for his wife, which she found brightly, burning. Upon entering _the house, she proceeded immediately to. pigpare for bed, and reaching up to the lamp, which hung suspended from tf)e ceiling, she turned it down and tried to blow it out, when it exploded. The burning> flvid “was iinstantly precipitated all over her and enveloped her in, a sheet of flame ; the fiery liguid ran down her arms and back. She was carried out into the yard by ber husband, ‘who sprang fronh his bed upon hearing the explosion, burn‘ing and screaming. Very quickly the ineighhors came to' her relief ;-but what coald be done %~ She was already literally -burned to a crisp, and when relieved from the flaming fragments of her clothes, her ‘flesh in many places was really to drop off. Her sufférings and cries of distress were such as t& melt “the strongest minds to pity snd tears.: Sh,e'i, lingered until 7 _o'clock! in the morning, in her anguish ‘begging for death; conscious to the last momen% when she passed tb a higher and a bappy life..« Her husband, who had been for two or three years suffering from a maimed foot which, in bis haste to help ‘his wifé, was re injured, beside being severely burned ¥ both his hands and arms, Dr. Gants, whose residence is just across the street, was quickly.on the spot to assist ‘the sufferer, bad also his%-hands burnd&i and scarred in the flesh by the red hot steel of the unfcrtunate woman's crinoline, in trying ‘to tear the clbthgfs from off her burning bedy. * Mrs. Hart was respected by the entire community in which she resided, and leaves a large circle of friends to.mourn ber sad fate.
