A NEW religious sect has appeared in Ohio county, who call themselves, variously, "Soul Sleepers," "Christadelphians," or "Annihilationists." They preach the second coming of Christ, after which event the righteous are to be caught up out of the way while the wicket! inhabitants of the world are being burned, and the globe otherwise purified, when they, the religious, will return to inhabit it.—

<Exchange>.

This is not a <new> religious sect, having

had an existence in some of the Eastern States for many years. The writer of this item heard the doctrines above mentioned preached in Bristol county, Massachusetts, more than twenty years ago. The preacher argued, and quoted Scripture to show, that the gift of "eternal life" was for the righteous only, for those who "by patient continuance in well-doing seek for glory, honor and <immortality>." An-

nihilation, he contended, was the doom of the wicked.

SAYS

the Indianapolis

Journal:

"Of the

three Democratic Agents of State, John M. Lord, D. C? Stover and Col. John C. Walker, not one was a faithful and honest official. Mr. Lord used the public funds for his private purposes, unless Dr. Norman Eddy, the present Democratic candidate for Secretary of State, published a falsehood in his repoat to the Legislature in 1S61. D. C. Stover was guilty of forgery, unless Hon. Joseph E. McDonald stated a falsehood in his report to the Legislature of 1S65. Col. John C. Walker absconded from Indiana in 1S64, and did not make a settlement with his predecessor. These men, each and all of them, received the full endorsement of the Democratic party, and were placed in possession of millions of the Stale funds. That they did not make the tax payers suffer more than they did was mere good luck."

THE Lafayette Journal ofSalurday reports that on Friday morning, the dry goods store of T. D. Kent, at Marshfield in which the postoffice is kept, was robbed by burglars, who entered the building by means .of crowbar and chiseL Afteg taking about $400 worth of dry goods hats, caps, notions and tobacco, robbing the postoffice of about $30 worth of stamps, and taking $50 cash from the money drawer, they entered John Marin's saloon, adjoining, and filled their stomachs and bottles with his liquors. 3

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE.

NEW

YORK, September 2.—The Sun

says, we have just learned with deep regret that Chief Justice Chase has for some time past been suffering from a paralytic stroke, which, without entirely destroying the use of his limbs incapacitates him for walking without help, and seri ously affects his mind. His recovery is desired, rather than confidently expected. Indeed, it is considered doubtful whether he will again be able to resume the arduous labors of the bench.

The Chief Justice is now at the country seat of Senator Sprague, his son-in-law, on Narragansett Bay, where he has the best medical attendance the country can afford.

WASHINGTON.

SURRENDER OF NAPOLEON. WASHINGTON, Sept 3.—The fpllowing telegram was received at the State De partment this morning fro Minister Motley, dated London, Sept. 3d: "Emperor Napoleon surrendered yesterday at Sedan to King William of Prussia. The whole French army at Sedan are prisoners of war. ... (Signed,)

MOTLEY."

The following has also been received, addressed to the Secretary of State: LONDON, SATURDAY,

September 3, 11$ A. M.

"The Emperor and McMahon's army have surrendered at Sedan to the King. The Emperor's residence is to be appointed by the King after an interview with him. Capitulation wa3 concluded with Gen. Wimpfifen, instead McMahon, who was wounded. ("Signed,) "MOTLEY.

g. JEW YORK.

SURRENDER OF THE EMPEROR AND MCMAHON'S ARMY. NEW YORK, Sept. 3.—A dispatch just received at this office says that King William announces to Queen Augusta the surrender of the whole French- army at Sedan, including the Emperor himself.

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE.

The World says that the paralytic stroke fell on Chief-Justice Chase several day ago, at the country house of Jjis son-in-law, Senator Sprague, Narragansett Bay. He is unable to walk without assitance, and his mind seems shattered and impaired.

The health of the Chief-Justice has been visibly declining for many months. Gentlemen from this city, whose business called them to the Supreme Court during its last session, remarked to their friends on returning, that they were struck with his changed appearance and too visible marks of premature old age. Those who visited him at his house noticed that he had lost his elastic tread and his old habit of ascending two stairs at a time. It is not generally known that a few. weeks since, the Chief-Justice, while passing through this city, had a sudden attack of severe illness, and was obliged.to remain in his room at a hotel for several days, unable to continue his journey. That he should be attacked by paralysis surprises no one who knows with what intense assiduity he has applied himself to public affairs during the last decade.

GOOD TEMPLARS.

HARTFORI?, Cr., Sept. 3.—At a meeting of the Grand Lod*e of Good Templars yesterday, political matters were discussed and resolutions adopted recommending the appointment of a committee to present the matter of -the State Police to the next General Assembly, urging it as the duty of Good Templars to vote for such candidates for officials as are in favor of enforcing prohibition, though the order disavow any intention to bind its members to act with liny particular party. The following was finally adopted:

Resolved,

That the time has come when

prohibition or license is thought to be an important political question, and if the parties already organized do not take a correct stand upon these questions we will favor the organization of a third party, whose principal object will be to secure the enforcement of prohibition laws.

THE JUTE BUG.

Cantion to Ladles Who Don't Want Their Sknlls Bored.

From the Portland (Me.) Press.] We have lately printed several practical •-cautions against the use of jute switches, publishing among other items an account of a fatal result in Waterville. Mr. J. P. Smith, hair-dresser, showed us last evening one of the vermin which he took yesterday from a switch, and it is one of the most repulsive looking insects that we wish to see. It is smaller than the tody of a flea, but, put under an ordinary microscope, was magnified to a length of nearly three-quarters of an inch. It is of a brown color, semi opaque, with nearly as many legs as the centipede. Projecting fronl the head are two horns, half as long as the creature, curved like the horns of an ibex, corrugated like the feelers of a lobster. Attached to the rear part of the body are two pairs of claws, in two parts, the upper closing over the lower, like a parrot's bill. The jaws appear to be of extraordinary power, and altogether the sight of such a creature causes one to- involuntarily shriek. We hear that several ladies in this^ vicinity have discovered these things in their switches, and we give this additional caution to discard this silly and unsafe style of head-dress. Mr. Smith has this specimen at his room, and those who are curious to investigate and study the structure of the animal are at liberty to do so.

The Springfield (Mass.)

Bcpublican,

says on the same subject: The recent revelations abont "jute"—the dark, brous bark wherewith women endeavor cheaply to counterfeit the luxuriant heads of hair denied them by nature—have been regarded, no doubt, as merely sensational, or perhaps the product of some mysogenic imagination. But the doubt-: ers have no chance. The disgusting little borers that fill the fibres of the jute plant, whether used in massive chignons or long bunches, are causing a livefy and by no means pleasing excitement in various quarters. Finding their way to the heads of their harborers, they burrow there until the scalp is raw, and. in some cases affect the whole nervous system and craze the brain. In this city several women lie in danger of death from this loathsome insect one of these dwells on the Hill, another on Dwight street,"ani the disease in its lesser form is quite frequent. Without any hnir-splitting, the moral seems to be that "honesty is the best policy" in personal adornment as in business and jute chignons must take their place vath the poisonous dyes and lotions of the quacks, as among the implements of fash' ionable suicide.
