They started for this place at 7 A. and after traveling seven miles Nicholson got 'of'" his to walk a short distance, sat down and fell forward, dead.

His friend Mr. Darrah, passed through here Saturday night, with Mr. Nicholson's body, on his way to his home. Mr. Nicholson was a native of Wcst- jjioreland county and sixty-one years of ago.

He was largely engaged iu the lumber business in Western Pennsylvania. He served as a member of tiie House from Jefferson county in 1S57 and 1879 and was a member of the present Legislature having been elected as a Democrat. Tirr. Cambria Freeman, of Friday, February 20, says: On Monday last a full corps of engineers in the employ of the P. U.

R. Company arrived in this place and commenced the survey of a railroad line down the valley of the Blacklick. Starting at the end of the track of the Ebcusburg Cresson Branch road, at the station here, the line passes through the town in a southwesterly direction to the headwaters of the south branch of the Blacklick creek, with very little ifariy- deflection from the line of tlieSchlaUer route, made by order of the Canal Commissioners in 1S30-JO. So far as can be ascertained at present, it is presumed the object of the movement is an extension of the E. C.

Railroad into the rich Blacklick mineral aud timber district, and the consequent development of its varied and bounless resources, consisting of superior coals, iron ores, fire clays, the same being embraced within an area of more than thirty miles in length and several miles in width, and extending from within a short distance of Ebensburg to the borough of Blairsville, in the adjoiniug county of Indiana. THE trial of Samuel McCaulcy, the parricide, which was commenced in the Westmoreland county courts, at Greensburg, on February llth, ended Tuesday morning, February 26, at 8 o'clock by the jury returning a verdict of murder in the first degree. The trial was retarded some time by the illness of one of the jurors. At 8 o'clock Monday evening Judge Hunter finished his charge. The jury retired and remained out all night.

They were unanimous in the opinion that it was murder, but much difficulty was experienced in fixing the degree. One insisted on acquitting him on the ground of emotional insanity. After his sanity was established to the satisfaction of the juror, four ballots were taken on the crime. On each the vote stood ten for first degree and two for manslaughter. It was not until early daylight that a verdict was reached.

The prisoner received the verdict bnt" remarked, turned towards the jury, and after looking them over carefully said to his attorney, "I wonder if those jurymen can read." The case has attracted considerable attention more especially as both Indiana and Fayette counties have similar cases to try. It is said that application for another trial will be made. RKD CLOUD writes us from Blairsville: The temperance meeting in the school hall, recently, was very meagerly attended. The speaker reviewed the matter from a political standpoint, arguing that all party distinctions should be abolished, and that all voters should become prohibitionists. "No Republicans, no Democrats, no North, no South," was the language of Hie speaker.

At the close of the meeting an effort was made to organize a prohibition party. The speaker argued the importance of thus organ- izir.g, and sending delegates to the State Convention to meet at Philadelphia on May 1, and also tfie National Convention to meet in Pittsburg about May 21. Judging from the attendance Youth and Age. The time for notion Ls in our youth. It is then that we gather in the grapes.

With freckled face sunburnt hands and bare feet we wander from vine to vfiie, from trellis to trellis in the very exuberance of childish glee and spirits. In age quietly sit in the shade, and while the hours away in conversation with our friends while we sip the wine, which is better for the long years which have passed since the vintage. In youth we should learn wisdom. It is thus we should sow the seeds which are to bear fruit for the future. We should be taught that Peruna is the greatest medicine ever dis- covtrecl, amd that is has worked some wonderful cures.

There is a book which can be procured at the drug stores, which tells yftu all about this medicine. It is entitled the Ills of Life. Ask for it, and read it through, and then buy Peruna and you will never regret it. Send to Dr. S.

The meeting was interesting throughout, and a liberal collection was raised Thesocia! event of this week was the marriage of Mr. Samuel McCune to Miss Mattie Davis, at the residence of the bride's parents on Wednesday, the 5th by Miles, of the M.

We wish the happy couple a happy future The Jeffersonian Literary society of the Blairsvillc Academy, gave an open meeting on last Friday night. Owing to the inclemency of the weather the attendance was very light. Strange to say not more than half of the members of the Society took part in theesercises. A discussion was given on the question, resolved that total abstinence should not be adopted, which was unanimously favor of the affirmative.

The reading given by Professor Stiffey, was finely rendered and was listened to with marked interest and attention by the audience. The other performers did well considering that they are amateurs, and deserve special credit for doing the best they could. A few days ago a small child of Samuel Shields', of Concmaugh township, was badly scalded by upsetting tome boiling tea on its head.

One car was completely demolished, and the track obstructed for several hours.

This is the fifth wreck that Mr. Harry McAnulty, the conductor, has had during the last two months, and yet in all these wrecks not a single person has been injured. It is reported that the West Penn railroad will be double tracked this summer, from Allegheny Junction to Leechburg or Apollo The coke works on the Indiana Branch, one mile north east of here, have been abandoned for the present.

L. Stewart, Esq. appearing for the defendant. The prisoner was brought into court by Sheriff Jamison; he appeared perfectly calm collected, was clean and neatly dressed, and appeared to have little interest in what was about to take jilace, the placing him ou trial for his life. His counsel made a motion to quash ihe array of jurors, alleging the want of proper service of jurors in attendance, that one juror Wm.

Lynn by nsuue had been dead before the fill- in of the jury wheel from which the present jury was drawn, and that one William Gloss hart been drawn, and that instead one Wilson Gosshad oeeu served aud was in attendance. All these objections were overruled by the Court, and exceptions taken by the defense. The prisoner was then arraigned, and the selection ul' si jury commenced, and by six o'clock the time for adjournnjentthree had been secured, A night session was ordered by Judge Blair when the balance of the geheral panel was exhausted, which resulted in only securing ten jurors. At this stage of the trial the Judge ordered the Sheriff to summon twenty tales- man to appear at fifteen minutes to nine o'clock Wednesday morning from Thich to complete the jury, and adjourned the Court. Aw we go to press this, Wednesday, morning at nine o'clock, we are unable to give our readerf the names of the entire jury.

Those selected from the regular panel are Archie Fowler.Green township, J. U. Marshall, West Indiana, Joseph Arble, Montgomery, William Morrow, South Mahoning, Thomas Mikcsdl, Burrell township, Elliot Robinson, West Wheatfield township, John Cline, West Wheatfield, Bobort Barber, Green, John E.
