Reed, supenn- tedent of the paper mill at that place went into the basement of the mill this afternoon to oil a shaft journal, and was caught by a nut on a puller wheel, earned around the shaft a number of times, and both feet beat-off by striking against the tloor above. The thumping cn the floor attracted the attention of the engineer, who shut off the steam. On going into the basement Reed's mangled and dead body was found hanging from the shaft. The deceased came from Pulaska, N. last June, and assisted to rganize the mill company and was a member of it.

THE WHIPPING POST.

Harrisburg. March 11. In the legislature an act has been reported affirmatively providing fur the infliction of corporal punishment upon men convicted of beating their wives or other women. The Burgess Case Again. Ed.

Republican Two weakneses will not give strength, any more than two wrongs will make a right. The fulsome stuff in the- last Trumpet, the basis of which was given by the great and good E. J. and the reducing of which to paper was the ef-tort of the unwashed Jap, does not seem to get away with the unlawful and atrocious acts of our city anthro-pophogi, Nugent. Had the Journal reporter taken hi3 strychnine reasonable doses, and went to the river, and actually created a sensation resulting in a coroner's jury, we would simply have diminished one in our population yet the stains and disgrace upon our city, growing out of the outrages cooiraitied by one of her officials would remain, and do remain, are ineffaceable.

"The complete history of the case," as given by a Journal reporter, seems to be only the exudations of a diseased mind and his indiscribable fancy. The last sentence of thearticie.whieh reads, "Neither the whining nor the howling of defeated police court pettifoggers, or their sympathizers who have 'stood will change the popular verdict." This snould be put in rhyme. The "long may the Deacon ware," attaches largely to the longevity of the mule and the jackass who is catering to his terrible and fearful convulsions, not only in a legal but in a "moral way. If the Burgess case was continued "nine times" it may have been it waS tried, and the wan, sickly woman and her babe were Imprisoned, either on the evidence adduced at the former trial or that adduced on the day the humanity anni-hilator, Nugent, directed the marshal to take her to jail. I have consulted no less than seven lawyers in this city, each of whom tells me that when an alia3 warrant was issued at the instigation of the city that it made a case for hearing and trial, and that any former testimony that was taken in the case, on original warrant and arrest, went for nought, and that the case was to be tried uoro, iie as never having been attempted to be tried.

To me this looks like sense. If this be true then how stands this Hercules in monstrosities On the-final trial of the case, the city waived the introduction of any teaimony.that sh ju have dismissed the case, and would, had a man of sense" been in the place of E. J. N. Mr.

Welsh appearing for the poor woman, and Nugent insisting upon testimony, introduced her, her husband, Geo. Haftord and Price Lampkin. The first to swore the charges were false, and so beyond shift, evasion and subterfuge. The last two, that they only knew the de fendant by sight, had never visiteu her house, and id heard nothing derogatory to her character. Yet that immaculate (V) nincompoop.put- ting on the airs of a Jeffries, (not our townsman but the corrupt one once on the English bench), with eyes rolled ud as if to ask heavens bless ing upon his great humanitarian act.

said: "I have carefully, and 1 flattei myself impartially, heard the evi dence in this case, and I find the de fended guilty as charged, and affix the penalty at $50.00, and the costs of this prosecution. Have you tlu money Madam (So). "Then stam up receive the sentence of th Court, that you stand committed un til the fine and costs are paid" and BY TELEGRAPH. Railroad th Black Hills.

St. Louis, March 11. The Louisville Courier-Journal's correspondent here learns that a small group of individuals hav secured, in lehalf of the Northwestern railroad. Bear Butte Canon, which is the only passable and available entrance for a rail road into the Black Hills, whither the Northwestern and Milwaukee St Paul roads are running a race. John A.

Smiley, an old government contractor and freighter, first secured the canon and adjoining lands and organized a railroad company which he has, according to this story, just turned over to the Northwestern officials. It now looks as though St. Paul would by this arrangement be shut out from the Black niils, and it is represented that theie is great perturbation in consequence in rail road circles. Mr. A.

V. Bark, of Whitewater. says: The success of the age is St. Jacobs Oil; it curs everybody, and is considered a gift from heaven by our people. FINEST Ever Shown where the offence charged was com- mitted.

Now, laying aside the prob abilities that the creation crime not known to any statute, or the criminal law, since the difficulty between Cain and Abel, (presumably as far back as necessary to in no case be enforced and this opinion prevails among our Attorneys. Can any one imagine a greater degree of turpitude, or in its gros ser ignorance of law, sense and decency saying nothing about humanity, than that pigmy in- eiant's armor has ex hibited? The Burgess case is not an i exception to many others I might name. A dollar between the eyes of our great and good E. J. N.

and a person charged with an offense, causes the old idiotic cormorant to lose sight of the subject matter to be adjudicated, and to put on his pecs" and gaze intently on the "legal tender. ith him the rule of law and humanity is reversed. The law, that no one shall be considered other than innocent until proven guilty, with him, any one charged must prove himself innocent. As police judge, he construes the law, so that no one can have the benefit of trial before a jury i of his pe'ers. They nni3t be tried be- fore his august pomposity.

I "He will give them wont to do, lie will fix their wages too." He may cavort as he will, but nothing "will change the popular verdict. I have no disposition to-wnrd fault-finding in general, but justice invokes chastisement for an infraction of rights which attach to our common humanity which should not go unwhipped. The "crime contemplated in the ordinance," mentioned in the Journal, is simply th giving away of the fact that no such crime can exist, as we have above intimated. We do not want to follow that man, E. J.

N. with bitterness, but if some one does not show him up, th it will be true that "absurd ity has gone mad." Veritas. Kansas HTy iiraln 22arkets. Kansas. City, March 11.
