I. Mitchell, of Tioga county, was elected Senator on Wednesday last, the Compromise Committee having agreed upon his nomination the night previous. Mr. Mitchell is at present a member of Congress from the 10th district, and was also member of the forty-fifth Congress. Previous to his ejection to Congress he was a member of the State Legislature, having served there from 1872 till 1870.

The new Senator is comparatively a young man being aged about 43 years. tiriTE a flurry in the stock market occurred on Friday last, stocks falling from 5 to 20 per cent. The cause is laid to the action of the banks which contracted their volume of currency nearly thirteen millions of dollars by taking up bonds and returning their notes to the treasury. This action on the part of the banks was taken because they dislike the section in the new funding bill, wbich compels them to use the new three per cent, bonds as a basis for their currency, aud from appearance this bill will pass, though there Is a hope that the president will veto it. The Secretary of the treasury attempted and partially succeeded in stopping the panic by call, ing in ten millions in bonds and thus relieving the market to that extent.

Withdrawals of Bank Circulation. Washington, Feb. 23. There have been deposited in the Treasury about $4,000,000 in legal tenders by national banks to withdraw circulation on account of the Funding bill. The amount deposited to day was $2,800,000, being from twelve banks.

Two of these banks are in New York City, one each in Philadelphia, Boston, and Albany, and the others in New York State, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Most of the bonds withdrawn from the Treasury since the Senate passed the Funding bill by banks retiring their circulation are five per cents. Since November 1st last there has been a decrease of $16,000,000 in five per cent, bonds deposited to secure circulation of national banks, a decrease of $14,600,000 in the deposit of fours, and of $2,140,000 in the deposit of four and-a-halfs. No effort was made to dispose of the Funding bill to-day. Important to Newly-Elected Justices of the Peace.

The persons' recently elected to the offioe of Justice of the Peace, will avoid much annoyance by giving heed to the following section of the supplement to an act entitled "An Act providing for election of Alderman and Justices of the Peace:" Section 4. That the Aldermen or Justices of the Peace elected under the provisions of this act, shall file an acceptance of said office with the prothon-otary of the proper county, stating therein the name of the Alderman or Justice of the Peace whom they succeed, with the caue of vacancy and said pro-thonotary shall certify the same under his seal of office to the Secretary of the Commonwealth, whereupon the Gov-ernor shall issue commission to such persons as shall appear to be duly elected, for the term of five years, to be computed from the first Monday of May succeeding the election, for which said commission each person so elected an Alderman or Justice of the Peace shall pay three dollars, to be received by the recorder of deeds of the proper county, to be by him transmitted to the Secretary of the Commonwealth as fees for other commissions are transmitted and the said Alderman or Justice of the Peace shall be by the said recorder sworn or affirmed in the manner now provided by law. We might also add in this connection that it is necessary for constables to file their oaths of office. A Sad Case. A Tuesday's despatch from Milwaukee says Coroner Heckman was yesterday notified that a dead body lay In a house on the plank road, a short distance from the city limits.

On proceeding to the place h'e found a family in a horrible state of destitution. The inmates consisted of the mother, ill from giving birth to a child eight days before, and which had been dead in the house for two days, and four children ranging in age from ten years down. The family had had no food for forty-eight hours other than scrapings from an old swill barrel which had formerly been used In carrying slops from a distillery. The squalor and filth of the place Is described as sickening to the laet degree. The father, Ernest Latz, is in jail awaiting trial for the theft of an old harness.

He completed a term of sixty days in the house of correction on Monday for some petty was at once rearrested. A Fellow Who Wants Lynching. A despatch from Richmond, Indiana, Tuesday states Walker Amos has entered a plea of guilty to the charge of kidnapping, and has confessed that he enticed a Buiall boy, named Adolphus Williams, from his home, No. 3C3 Bright street, Indianapolis, and started on foot with him towards this place. They walked sixteen miles the first day, aud when the boy's feet became sore, Amos made a cat-o'-nine tails out of a rope and lashed the boy to make him walk on, whipping the boy until he almost fainted.

They walked on to Blchmond, begging as they went, the boy being forbidden on the pain of death to make any complaint. At this place he took another little boy named RatlllTe, and started on towards Pittsburg, compelling the boys to walk over frozen roads, and beating them unmercifully whenever they complained. They had reached Troy, Ohio, when they were overtaken by persons from here and brought back to this place. Amos says he Intended to take the boys to Harrisburg, to his mother, and have her raise them. The fellow is a lightcolored mulatto, very tall and slim.

He says he was a porter in a disreputable saloon in Chicago during the winter. A Death-Bed Confession. A Bloomlngton, 111., despatch says: George M. RoUBh, a prominent stock-raiser, died three years ago suddenly one night in his bed. It was supposed to be heart disease.

His estate, amounting to $30,000, was divided among his three children and wife, the latter following him to his grave about a year later. The eldest son, Peter, went to Northern Iowa, succeeded in adding to his wealth, married wealthy, and was accounted a valuable citizen. A few days ago he died. When informed he could not lh in the presence of physicians and his family he made a confession that he had murdered his father in order to get a ehare of the property. Mr.

Rousu was in the habit of placing a glass of water near his bed, and Peter slipped into his room and emptied poison in the water, which his father unsuspectingly drank in the night. A Girl Changes Her Mind. Earnest Graham and Belle Boper started from Clement, 111., for St. Louis, where they were to be married. They were accompanied by Lewis Lindsay, who was to be the groomsman at the wedding, and a party of relatives and friends.

Their train was delayed, and they did not arrive in St. Louis until too late to have the ceremony performed at the appointed time. But a postponement was not the only disarrangement of the programme. Miss Boper announced that, during the journey, she had changed her mind and would not marry Graham, but would request the clergyman to make her the wife of Lindsay, which was done. Murder will Out." Two years ago, at London, Ohio, Mrs.

Samuel Armstrong was arrested for murdering her husband, who was found in bed with a pistol-shot through the head. She was discharged for insufficient evidence. Two weeks ago Mrs. Armstrong married Herman Cornelius, and on Saturday luat she was rearrested, together with her mother, on the charge of murder. A man in Texas named Adams, who is supposed to know something about the murder, has also been arrested.

A brother of the murdered man has been collecting evidence for two years against bis brother's wife, and the officers say they have a clear case. Shocking Cruelty lo Children. A terrible story of cruelty to children is told by a correspondent The victims are orphaus who were sent from various asylums of the Quaker City to Delaware. Tom, a little boy, in the household of a Sussex farmer Reuben Johnson was worked almost to death, and during the cold weather was furnished with such an Insufficient supply of clothing that his feet were frozen and the flesh drop, ped oft from the toes, the frost bitten flesh extended to bis knees. This poor little boy, with a pair of nearly worn out brogans, had been on the morning of December 80, when the mercury was seventeen degrees below zero, in the face of a driving snow storm, sent to protect his master's unhusked corn from the cows and crows.

He remained standing around in the snow until 4 o'clock, when he drove the cows home received a piece of cold corn pone and was sent out in the snow again to chop stove wood until dark. Having no bed, he slept that night In front of the fire place, with his frozen feet buried In warm ashes. The following day he was hardly able to walk, and from that time forward he suffered intensely. This is only, however, a hint of the shocking story. Johnson was arrested and fined $32.

The boy's feet had to be cut off and he is in danger of losing his legs. Dancing Church Members. Pastor Marsden said to his Methodist congregation, at Yarker, Ontario, that if certain members persisted in attending dancing parties they must withdraw from the church. Six persons instantly stood up and asked for dismissal. ty-The father of Charlie Ross, writing to the latest discoverers of the lost boy in Canada, says that the last spark of hope has gone out, and he mourns the lost one as dead.

After giving reasons why the Canada boy cannot possibly be Charlie, he adds I have always believed that my Charlie, although only 4 years and 2 months old at the time he was taken, would remember bis brother Walter, who was taken away with him, and had also thought that be would even have a distinct recollection of the feeling of loneliness that he must have experienced when he found he was in the hands of strangers and separated from his parents." On another recent occasion, Mr. Ross said The only tidings I have ever received of Charlie since he was stolen was the demand for a ransom of $20,000. If I had paid that, I would have had him long before this. As it is, I have spent $00,000, and have not got him." 0 About half-past one o'clock on Thursday morning, a fire was discovered in the drug store of Solan East Liverpool, Ohio. It is supposed that Solan being a new comer did not understand the heavy pressure at times of the natural gas and left it burning In the store over which he and his family, a wife, seven children and a brother-in-law, Mr.

SkellB, were sleeping. When Solan discovered the fire he awoke the family and found the stairs had burned away. He took his daughter three years old and leaped from the window to the ground. He told his wife, who had the baby In her arms, and the children to follow. Solan broke his leg in jumping.

The wife and ctall-dred failed to jump and were tgirned to death; also, Mr. SkellB. The bodies were found next morning the wife, with the baby in her arms, both burned to a crisp. The five other children were found huddled closely and Skells was probably smothered by the smoke. UTA great sensation has just been created at Liberty, Sullivan county, N.

small town nearPort Jervls, by the elopement of Mrs. De Witt Beebe, the wife of a well-to-do and respectable mechanic, with an Impecunious musio teacher named Loomis. Mrs. Beebe took with her $1200 In money, her clothing, jewelry and all the valuables she had. She was the mother of two bright little girls, one of whom, an infant scarcely two years of age, she took with her.

The guilty pair were tracked to Middletown, where they remained all night and from where they had taken the curs for the West.
