THE Marietta Register publishes the fol lowing peppery paragraph A drummer from the paper house Stone ft Stewjart, Cincinnati, has persist ently bored us in the most persistent way for the past year or two. Monday ot this week his impudence was such that we ordered him to leave our office never to enter it again. He rushed out to publish us in the receptacle for slander.—Ohicinnati Gazette.
Old "Goggle-eye," the editor of the Register, is known to be the meanest man on the Upper Ohio. We ean»recollect when he was glad to see a paper drummer, especially if said drummer would credit him for a bundle or two of paper, but since he was elected to the Senate, he is as unapproachable as "old Dent," the door-keeper of the White House. We rfUve known Mr. Lyon, the drummer spoken of, for along time, and we must say that we have never met a more gentlemanly young man, and further we wish to say, that in ten years' travel on the road, we never met a meaner old cuss than this same Stimson.
WHO SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE Manr complaint.-* cic UHKIO
city yesterday afternoon. An explanation is expected by our citizens, and we ipake the following at the request of the business manager of the troupe. The management not long since employed an advance agent, and as they say, ordered him by telegraph, and perhaps, otherwise, not to advertise reserve seats lower than $1, which order he repeatedly and persistently disobeyed and when the company reached this city. Mr. Emmet refused to play unless the price of reserved seats were raised at once, which was done, although those who had already purchased tickets were allowed to occupy the seats without further charge, as also those who had engaged seats were allowed to secure them without additional charge.
The manager immediately telegraphed their agent at Milwaukee to suspend operations, as he was discharged, and this A. M. received an answer from him that he accepted the decree.
This has been a very unfortunate occurrence, and has resulted in many and loud expressions of disapprobation and disgust from quite a number of our citizens. We think that Mr. Emmet has made a mistake that will very materially damage his own interests here, in the way of attendance, aud deservedly so. While we are infinitely pleased and entertained with the aqting of Mr. Emmet on the stage, we must admit that we don't like his acting as regards business. We think it his agent disobeyed orders and auy loss results thereform, that they should be the loser, and that they should sell their tickets as advertised.
This thing of advertising to sell any article at a certain price and when the purchaser calls, raising the price, from auy cause whatsoever, is not business and we think our people are justly in-

[Special Dispatches to the Terre Haute Gazette.] PARIS, May 31.—The awful massacre continues at the barricades and in the Rue liochefort.

LONDON, May 31.—To-day's Paris ad-* vices say that the executions continue

PARIS, May 31.—A most revolting sight occurred this morning in front of the Hotel de Ville. Thirty-three Communists, among whom were seven women, were shot in a body by a company of soldiers. Around three sides of a square troops to the number of 1,500 were drawn up, under command of Colonel Guizot.
At 8 o'clock the prisoners, who had been confined in coal cellars at the back of the porter's lodge in the Hotel de Ville. were brought out with their haiuia lied behind them, and then marched out by the main gangway through a double file of soldiers, and having reached the ccntor r»f th« wide ftreu, in front of the Hotel, they were ranged in a row and made to kneel down close together. There was nothing on the whole piaza but three empty scarvenger carts, which stood in a line at the rear of the prisoners. When the company was in line and ready to fire, Colonel Guizot stepped forward and told the prisoners in a few words that they were to suffer death for having been caught in the act of setting fire to buildings and dwellings in Paris.
At this moment the women uttered piercing screams and began to sway themselves back and forth. An officer stepped forward and made them keep still with the flat of his sword. A few moments afterward a volley was fired, and when the smoke cleared away a most terrible sight was presented. Three of the women, who were in the middle between the men, were still living and writhing in awful agony. A second volley was fired, and a third, and not until the sixth was fired did all the prisoners cease to live. The dead bodies were then flung into the scavenger carts and carried away to be buried.
Orders to set fire to buildings which had been previously marked by the Central and Safety Committees for destruction, have been found on insurgent prisoners.

Considerable emotion ensued in the Bowen bigamy trial yesterday, by the production of a telegram from the United States District Attorney Davis, of New York, with reference to the alleged decree of the Supreme Court of that State, divorcing Bowen from Francis Bowen in 1865, in which he says: "I think the whole thing is a fraud and forgery.

PHILADELPHIA, June 1.—A dispatch from Pitts ton says: oner's jury in the case of the»%r aster at West Pittston, in* ,thT mines worked by Blake & Co., reared a verdict yesterday morning. After dialing the facts of the case, th'e ji^yjgfiKe that the miners met their death improper ventilation of the minej^tha.t when the breaker took fire there was'no means of supplying the men with fresh air, and that the means of ventilation were not such as are required by the act of March 30, 1870.
The jury furthermore find that there was negligence on the part of the employees of the company.in not keeping portions of the machinery properly oiled, and further, that the company had employed on the day of the accident a greater number of men than the requirements of the mines would warrant. The verdict finds, further, that Thomas W. Williams, Inspector of the Mines, knew of these violations ot law, but did not protest against them, and that he failed in his duty in not applying to the court for an injunction against operations.
LOUISVILLE, June 1.—There was a tremendous rain fell all Tuesday night in Marion and adjoining counties, and along the line of the Knoxville Railroad, from Lebanon Junction to Lebanon, which caused the largest flood known in that section of the State for many a year.. Immense damage was done to property, and a considerable portion of the railroad track was undermined and the track washe'd away. The train from here this morning was stopped a few miles beyond Lebanon Junction, where 50 feet of track was destroyed. The bridges passed over were insecure, and were crossed with extreme caution. Six miles beyond where this train stopped another train bound in this direction was compelled to stop, leaving a gap of six miles, between which no communication is possible, as the country is flooded in every direction.

NASHVILLE, May 31.—The Democrats of the Twenty-first Civil District of this county, the second largest district outside of this city met Tuesday and adopted the following: Inasmuch as the present Constitution of the State of Tennessee gives to the colored man every civil right enjoyed by the white man, it follows that the validity of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, form no substantial issue before the people of Tennessee therefore, in our opinion, no person or paper that shall want only to continue the agitation of this question, is entitled to the confidence or support of the Democracy of this State and whereas, the recent act of Congress known as the Ku KluxBill, looks, in our opinion, solely to the perpetuation of the success of the Radical party by violence, based on false pretenses, a contemplated destruction of the Government, which can only be prevented by a better organization of the Democratic party: therefore, .-t
Resolved, by the Democratic arid Conservative party of this district, That no secret meeting of this clab shall ever be held, that the members, individually and collectively of this club, hereby organize themselves apart of posse comftatus, as such always ready at the call of either
the Marshal of the United States, or Sheriff of the county, to bring to justice any person guilty of violating the provisions of the Ku Klux act of Tennessee. Without being so-called by either Marshal or Sheriff we bind ourselves to pursue, with hue and cry, any such offender beyond the confines of this district, and this club heartily offers a standing reward of $100, to be assessed on the members in proportion to their tax list, respectively, for the arrest and conviction of every such offender in the civil district. That we earnestly request Democrats of every other county of the State to organize a similar club, under these 5 ^The list of the signers embrace exCJovernor H. S.
