—On Friday, the 9th inst.,ithe east-ern-bound mail train, due here at 1:40 P. M., collided with a freight train going west, a mile east of Corunna, resulting'in the burning of the mail and baggage cars with their entire contents. Both engines - were totally wrecked, but, fortunately, no lives were lost. A fireman, several mail clerks and a passenger or two were more or less injured, but neithér dangerously.. The corpse of a young girl, which was accompanied by the bereaved father, was cremated in the ruins of the baggage car, Only a few charred fragments of the remains were picked up and conveyed to their final destination. The cause of the disaster is said to have been the willful disobedience of orders on part of the engineer having charge of the engine attached to the freight, who had instructions to lay on side-track at Sedan until the passenger had gone by, It is.to be hoped that this hair-brained offendey, if found guilty, will meet the speedy and justretribution merit-, ed| by lus reckless disregard of hu man life and ihe destruction of prop-

They weat like hot cakes and were inadequate to meet the demand. ° This firm has quite q’ number of shovels in process of manufacture for nextseason’s trade, but had purposely closed out nearly their entire stock which were ready for market, thinking the time for shoveling snow in this vicinity had gone by. b

~—Some lbusine‘ss men think they are so well known that it is not necessary for them to advertiss, but while they are congratulating themselves on their own popularity, an enterprising exchangeremarks, some live man steps in; and by judicious advertising, secures all’the new, as well asg many of the old customers, and builds up a trade that was not deemed possible by the “well known merchant.” The old settlers are passihg away, and their places are being filled by new comers, who invgiriab!ly consult the columns of the loeal papers. to see who are the _livé ‘business men, for they know they will do better with th!trm_,: than with those who don’t waunt to inerease their trade. e b :

. —ln reading a trial list of court proceedings, the Selinsgrove (Pa.) T'imes says, there occur Latin abbreviations some persons may not understand. TFor example: John Doe vs. Richard Roe. The “vs.” is short for *versus, which is the Latin word gorresponding to the English “against.” Agaixlglz Dan Jones et al. vs. Mickel Bones et ux. “Et” is the Latin word for “and” in English! “al.”. stands for “alius,” another, in the singular nuhjbez*, masculine gender, or for “alii,” others, in the plural. “Ux” is the Latin for swife.” ITence, Dan Jones et al. vs. Mickel Bones et ux., should read in English, “Dan Jones and ah;other (or others) against Mickel - Bones and wife.” It don’t follow, though, since. you-understand this much of “law,” that you must now become a lawyer] —The alarming prevalence of hog cholera'in t’his' country, during the past few years, has given rise to various theories as to the cause of the distressing malady. . It has been suggested by scientific men that 1f hogs ‘were allow?d to roam in the woods, and eat roots and suck substances from the earth, as they were found in their nativity, there would be no hog cholera. We are favorably impressed with this theory., When the muscle ‘in tl}e hog’s snoot is destroyed, his diet and, to a great; extent, his habits are necesSarily changed. 'And it is a fact worthy of our notice that when he was alloaved to roam in the forest and run and root at his own sweet will, disease was almost unknowh to him. -We suggest this to farmers, as worthy of their attention. Try the experiment; let the hog alone with his snoot. ; ! —No little astonishment was created in this community, last Saturday, upon the announcement that L. 'F. Fisher, who disappeared rather suddenly something over a yearago in order to escape the consequences of & sharply-execunted $1,600 forgery upon the Citizens” Bank, had'made his _ap{ pearance at Albion and voluntarily surrendered himself to Sheriff Eaglea. All sorts of rumors were at once set afloat, many of them doubtless of a grossly exaggerated and altogether ridiculous chara?ter. From all we are, able to learn, Titus lias had quite a checkered career singe his abrupt departure from our midst. A history of his career during the past year would doubtless prove anarrative of thrilling interest. Tisher was on Tuesday,released. and is at present staying with his parents in this place. Ie has made a number of calls upon his old friends . and acquaintances, and, we understand, expresses an earnest sorrow that he took the step which Jed to the trouble in which heis involved.

—They are here.. They have swept Michigan like a mighty tidal wave, and now they are among tus. Their mumber is llegion, and still they are increasing. We mean the Red-Rib-bon Reformejrs. Dr. W.-A. IFendrick, of Michigan, held his first meeting at tbe M. E. Church on Sunday afternoon and set the ball a-rolling. At the close of his first address about 125 persons put on the ribbon and pledged themselves “not to buy, sell, make or use intoxicating or malt beyerages, wine and cider included.” On Monday evening another meeting was held, and a club organized with Mr. E. Reeve as President, Dr. C. Palmiter, E. Richmond, Esq., and D. L Reynolds Vice-Presidents, E. B, GerIg:}‘ Treasurer, and W. K. Sheffer Secretary.. An Executive Committee, consisting of five persons, .weré also selected. On Tuesday evening another meeting was held at .the M..E. Church, Dr. Hendrick again addressed the audience, after which Rev. Latham made a short speech. The pledge and ribbons were/then passed and 50 more names added to the club, making a . total of 220 who had signed the ‘pledge and put on the ribbon. - Among the number are some of the most prominent and influential ; men and women of the community, and it is safe to say that Ligonier was never so awakened and stirred up on the subject of temperance as at present. It is a war on the evils of intemperance, and noton the liquor-dealers. They are to be left entirely dlone. This is the secref of the movement. It is to be hoped that all who have identified themselves with this movement, by signing the pledge and putting on the ribbon, will faithfully adhere to the sacred obligation which they have thus taken, that lasting good may result therefrom.

ALBION RUMMAGES.

" Three shaving shops in town—Will Henderson, Al. Heffner and Wils. White. ¢ 1 A great deal of excitement has been caused by the strange return of L. T. Fisher. He stopped over at.the Eagl? House, in Albion, a few ddys, but has now gone to his home in Ligonier under bonds of $5OO for his appearance in court. “Tite” is again married, and is prepared to live in peace as soon as the‘people see fit, which we trust will be soon. f

The coming term of court promises to be one of unusual interest: Already over two hundred eases are on the docket. A very beautiful lady wants to be “cut loose,” for she says “he has ill-tréated me a number of times.” Another daughter of Eve charges a man for having said something that might contract her chances for matrimony, and thinks it ought to be worth about $lO,OOO. ? i George W.

We-were passing through the woods west of Broadway, a few ‘days ago, when we noticéd upon a large beech tree the following inseription: *“Daniel Ohlwine, 1835.” On inquiry, we learned that Mr. Ohlwine inscribed the letters there, with his pocket-knife, on the day of the burial of’ the old Indian Chief al the Indian Village. The letters are nearly as plain as they were forty-two years ago, - How people will differ in opinionas to what constitiites a mean man. Editors claim that abouf{ the meanest man they know of is one who goes to his neighbor, reads his local paper, then goes elsewhere and publicly condemns it. We will admit that he is a very mean man. “Jap,” of Albion, claims that the meanest man he can think of is the one who stole ’Squire Johnson’s sheep. DBut the meanest man we know of is one who has made it'’ his business, almost daily, to go travelingf around through the country, up and down, trying to slander some one, making defenseless women and orphans a specialty, and all of whom are as far above him as the saint is above the woodchuck. We do not pretend to say that the depraved individual in question can slander anyone, but he makes an effart to do so. We will now leave it to the readers of THE BANNER to decide which of these three men is the meanest man. , s : ! DANA.
