The county is not under obligation to furnish bitching post- ami grounds to Petersbnrg. It will lie of beuelit to this town if the commissioner' would form tlie city dads to do something in the way of furnishing a hitching lot for the accommodation of visitors. Whore men are accommodated most, they will go to buy. Even* citizen in this ttowu would realize a profit from preparing a lot for hitching accomodation. ites.

y TenrlMe Accident. V»li*ks, Ind., June 7.—The little two-ycar-ohl and only child of Mr. Hollenbcrg, a prominent merchant of the firm of Holleubcrg & liro., ot thU place, met a terrible death about four o'clock Saturday evening, the particulars of which are about as follows: The child was given a bottle by Us mother to play with in which she noticed a small quality of liquid which the mother supposed was a remnant of whiskey—corking the bottle tightly it was given the child merely to paci

fy it. Nothing wore was thought of it until some time afterward* when the mother was startled by the screams of the child which she at once resl>ondcd to, and was horrified to find her only child, which, only a few moments before in perfect health, now in violent paroxysms. By a hurried examination it was found that the supposed whiskey was oil of tansy, and that the little iunoccnt had removed tbc cork from the bottle and had taken a fatal dose of the deadly poison. The Physicians of the place were quickly at hand and every known remedy was administered to the little agonized victim but unfortunately of no avail for it had taken such a quantity of the poison as to put it beyond all physical skill. By this time the child was in rapid convulsions, and tortured as though a blaze of lire was within its stomach, but the poor little sutferer soon found relief in the cold monster death. It was hurried at Pikcvillc, Sunday evening.. The jL'rlef stricken parents have the sympathy of the entire community. v M. C. B. J Parties knowing themselves indebted to us will confer! favor by settling soon, as we arc in great need of money to meet current expenses. Notice.—Monthly Railroad Passes must be returned to the General Passenger Agent within Five Days after date of expiration, other wise they will he discontinued. The Demockat acknowledges a complimentary to the Fourth of July Celebration to be held at the fair \ ground* at Princeton. They are to! have a uniform lv. of P. rank, besides many oilier attractions. May they do gloriously.

Tito strike at the Blackburn mines which lasted six weeks ended last Thursday. It seems that the miners wanted to be paid by the ton instead of the bushel, and that they wanted a cheek weighmau. The proprietor having granted these, the work is progressing finely. Dikd.—At Long Branch, Aprifoth, Hattie, daughter of William and Maggie Black, aged teu years, three months and fifteen days. She was a i lovely child, but she has gone to live in the spirit land, and to be the companion of angels. May the Lotal bless hci bereaved parents, and may they realize that their loss is her eternal gaiu. E. A. W. > / ---- X Died.—At Union, tinscoonty, June 8th, of that dread disease, consumption. Mrs. Elizabeth Harper, in the JTthjiear of her age. Funeral services were lie-id at the M. E. Church at L'uioti, aud interment took place at the cemetery near there at 3 I*. M. on the loth. Mrs. Ilarjwr leaves a husband and four children to mourn her loss. Mrs. llar]K-r was a sister of J. B. Uoover of Union. The Democrat sympathises with the bereaved frieuds. , g Heme Enterprise. Almost all tlietowusin the country as large as Petersburg are try ing to boom themselves. When we eon aider this fact, we arc a little chagrined to think of the plan of some of our citizeus who want to invest their eap ital away from home. .Such looks as I if tho desire oil their part of some of our citizens were to do good to towns distant from here, and damage to Petersburg; as though the main object | were to take out some spite at this I town. This is over-drawn, we know; but the effect of letting charity begin ; away from home first, is^ just the same as if the plan used were done out of sonic personal hatred, which, j we believe, is uot so. There is an on-1 ter prise proving successful and which has been undertaken by some of our citizens who have had the magnanimity ami I lie love for home lodoio#thing for home interest. We refer to the enterprise of manufacturing coke. This [laying business was undertaken 1 in good faith.and has been prosecuted | so energetically Uiat those wiio have | takcit stock are encouraged beyoud \ bounds. A large number of ovens; harcbccu erected with machinery : sufficient to run ooe hundred which \ will be built in the near future. The company iuteud increasing stock to ten tliousaiid dollar*. Tney do not expect help from abroad, as capital abroad is expecting to invest at Its owu home, which is right. It is cx[icctcil that the stock will be taken by Pike county capita!, aud its neighbors. At a meeting of tits company withe 8th Inst, tlic following officers were chosen : Directors; V- A. Burger, G. Frank, F. B. Posey, 4, L. Mcllay and W. V. Hargrove. The directors elected as follows: 0. A- Burger, President ;J.L. Mcllay, Vice-President; W. A. Posey, Secretary aud Superintendent ; W. V. Hargrore, Treasurer. An examination of lbs profits to be derived from the manufacture of coke will convince auy fair-mimled man that the coal and coke company of this place is soon going to he one of the most money-making companies in Southern Indiana. Put a shoulder to the wheel aud gush, w the motto which will make this, as all oilier enterprises, a money success.
