The report of the committee regarding tbe law In the cue was to the effect that "The attack upon the integrity of our court, coming as it does from the bands of men assuming to be a city council, and to act so officially as to declare what they will officially do, is so contemptuous of all law, so threatening against all order, that the press which published It and tbe persons so vaunting their official power may well be warned of their liability under the law of the land," This was unanimously adopted, aud a committee was appointed to ask the court that the same be spread upon the journal. Complaints come In from Talmadge, this county, to tbe effect that a school teacher In that village has of of late been very cruel to two Bohemian children, aged respectively seven and nine years.

Death op James Barnett. We merely announced last week the death of old James Bar-nett, of Massillon, by accident, but bad then no particulars. It seems he was returning from Navarre, and as he drove under the Erie Street railroad bridge his horse and buggy collided with another horse and buggy driven by Mr. Smith of Navarre. Both men were thrown from tbelf vehicles and severely Injured, Mr.

Barnett so se verely that be died next morning about 9 o'clock. His funeral took place from the B. Church on Monday afternoon, last week, and was largely attended. Mr. Barnett was a native of Ireland, and was about 86 years of age.

He had lived in Stark county over fifty years, and had become a man of considerable property. Notwithstanding his advanced age, his faeulties had not failed, and but for this accident he might have lived for yean. We believe Mr. Barnett helped to dig the Ohio Canal In the long ago now, Quantrrll's Birtbplaci, The Canal Dover correspondent of the Cleveland Herald says: "Many do not know that Dover ever produced William Clark Quantrell, the famous guerrilla, Quan Tell was born aud raised within the limits of this quiet little town.

Last week we gave an account of the finding of the body of Mrs, Amy Best, an old lady of about 60 years, near Btull's distillery, in tbe neighborhood of Port Washington, with ber neck broken and other evident marks of violence, Tbe affair occunedon Saturday evening Just before nightfall and has since been enveloped In mystery until ou Monday last, when Mrs, Catharine Stull, wife of John Stull, raado a ooufosslon, tbe particulars of which are about these On Monday last, Nov, 18, Mrs. Stull, upon whom suspicion had rested, was again examined before Justice Has-klnson, (acting as coroner).

In 10 or 16 minutes afterwards, she was seen coming out of the canal, where It was supposed she had gone to commit suicide. She says substantially that on Friday she went to the still house and Inquired for John Stull, her husband She was told that he had taken his gun aud had gone across the hog-lot. She followed, and looking up tbe hill saw her husband In the woods, near the residence of the de ceased, Mrs, Best. Mrs. Stull says that she slip ped up and got near her husband without being seen by him, and saw him apparently trying to chew up and destroy a bit of paper, He had stooped down In a fence comer and had removed a stone to get at It, Mrs.

Stull, whose suspicions bad been aroused at his visits lu this direction, supposed that the stone was the P. O. She ar cost-ed her husband, charging him with Infidelity, He advised her to cease such doubts aud go home, She went borne and wrote a note to Mrs. Best, making an appointment lu her husband's name to meet blm at the hay stacks; and on Sunday evening, Nov. 0, she went herself to the place of meeting.

Here she met Mrs. Best, near the haystacks. Mrs. Rest had left home some time before 8 o'clock In tho evening, to go to tbe stacks, where it seems she had been decoyed by Mrs. Stull, She says Mrs.

Best Immediately come toward her In a menacing atllludo, and that she struck Mrs, Best with a club, lu self-defence, and then tried to chokoher; falling In wblch, she picked her up and threw, or pushed her over the fence down the hill, where she was found ou Sunday, with her neck broken. Mrs, Stull was airested on Monday, aud Is now lu Jail. As the whole affair will UBdergo a full Investigation ia tho court, we refrain from further comment Mrs. Stull is a woman with a large family of children, and co'd no lougor conceal her part In the unfortunate affair, to which it would appear she was goaded by tbe Infidelity of her husband.
