Malldry and Miss Febie Beckley, The two last men­ tioned were horn and brought up In this Immediate vicinity and are un­ doubtedly among the most respected of our8odety. Miss Febie, the daugh­ ter of Capt. Beckley, has shown from childhood a very mild, and amiable disposition aud beiug the petted of fond parents, Leroy having been early deprived of a Mothers love and protecting care and his Father being deeply engaged in a Son the rn political life, could not give him the attention a boy so much needed, notwithstand­ ing Leroy has built up a character for himself that ma«y a young man might well imitate. He is now a trusted salesman in Andrews & Co.'s Whole­ sale School Furniture House, Chicago. Tiie marriage ceremony was performed by R. K.Todd,of Woodstock, at the residence ofthe bride's parents, in the presence of a large number of relatives and friend; on Christmas eve. After the happy pair were united they were made the recipients of a large number of presents which space %IN not allow us to give in detail. A very sad accident occurred here on last Friday night when one of our most esteemed young men lost one of his legs. Chris. Buek was the unlucky one. While attempting to step ofT from the Jauesville train while in mo­ tion he slipped and fell under the cars tiie wheels crushing his right leg So "badly that amputation was necessary about four inches above the knee.-- Tiie lef t foot was also run over and badly mangled, but there Is hopes of saving it. He 1B at his brothers house. Toney Buck's, where he is made as comfortable as can ber. Chris, has the sympathy of the whole community, being a man well liked by every one who knew hiui. We hope a speedy healing may take place and he may be able to soon be among us again. Win. Butler is no>v our appointed Express Agent. ; ^ Ed.

The Holiday trade In Richmond has been very large. * Our public school closed for vacation- on Tuesday. The teachers were, pre­ sented fitting gifts by their pupils. The High School concert, given at the Baptist Church, at the close of the term, was very line, and showed great proficiency In the pupils of the notl^ cal classes.

VOLO. tfiitToitPifAiNi)fcALER:--A comnlalut for A**anlt and Battery was entered at Waukegan against the rioters that made night hideous here the 5th Inst. The officers came up the 19th antT^ar- rested all that was In the affray. Some were in Johusburgh, John Myers was In McHenry aud when arrested refused, to go along but he sooi^ had cause to change his mind. When at Waukegan the trial was placed on the 97th, and at this date the examination came oft before E. M. Dennis, Esq. The Attor­ neys for the Defendants were Murphy, of Woodstock, Morse, Thompson, R, Bishop and Heydecjier. District At­ torney Whitney for the people. The result of the whole business will be as­ certained at the March term of the Circuit Court. Three Separate suits will be placed upou that smooth car­ pet, cailed equity, The Tin Wedding, the 23d inst„ at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E.Tower was a very pleasant aud enjoyable tin arrangement. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Bought have fust returned from a visit to Columbia county, N. Y., ami froni his corpulent condition we should judge he must have lived on the top shelf. Mrs. Rought's health is much improved. Marvin Rogers, Esq., died very sud denlv on the morning of the 18th inst., at the residence of his son, Henry Rog­ ers. His lamp of light went out like a taper that had been wholly consumed, and went peaceful co his eternal rest. While we pause to consider the merits of the one who has just left us forever let us try to regard others deserving our attention and give them the friend­ ly hand of social kindness while life givepthe opportunity." As time goes on all are passing away. Life is dreary enough with all the friendship that can be enjoyed.so let us be social, and friendly wheu toe can. The Christmas Tree * H. 15. Church, in consequence of the cold was not very heavily loaded, but that package of money and that well- dressed fat hog, caused a little dimness in those aged eyes and a little tremor in the voice. Ah, if we had more of such men and women to give gifts to the worthy, the world would be the better for them. A very pleasaut Sabbath School con­ cert and banquet was given at the M. E. Church on Christmas eve. The at­ tendance was large and the little folks acquitted themselves creditably and enjoyed themselves muchly. The Winter t«rm ofthe High school opens on Thursday Jan. 2d. The school has a reputation second to none In the State, and offers superior advantages for those who wish to pursue tiie higher branches of study It ought to have a score of students from McHenry. At about two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon our citizens were startled by the cry of *'flre," and rushing into the streets, a glance showed its locality to be in the barn of Dr. S. F. Bennett, in au incredibly short space ot time al­ most eve^ry able-bodied man In the village was on the ground working like tigers to save the house, which was in imminent danger. The barn and contents were past saving almost before the Are was discovered, if ever ineu worked nobly our citizens worked that afternoon. Everything available for carrying water was seized and three pumps kept running until the falling n of the burning building rendered the hou83 comparatively safe. The tire was first discovered by the smoke is­ suing from the pigeon holes on the North end, opening from the hay loft, which shows that the ftre originated there, and leads to the belief that it must have originated through the care­ lessness of some wandering tramp who had there sought shelter from the cold. This theory of the origin is strengthen­ ed by the fact that a German working for Mrs. Gibbs found a tramp secreted between her barn and corn cribs shortly after the Are was down. Ou being questioned he gave no satisfactory ac­ count of himself, but made off. The rapid destruction of the building seemed wonderful. When the smoke wao first seen. Mrs. Bennett and her little son Robby ran to the barn and the boy bravely rushed lu and untied one cow aud took her to the door where the mother seized the halter and led the animal out. Hobby then ruBhed into the brrn a second time to save If possible, the horse?, but the frightened animals were fractiourf and the little fellow became so suffocated by the «moke that he with the utmost difficulty found the door opposite where he Entered and made his escape. It seems like one of God's especial mercies that the brave boy did not lose his life. A cutter and robes, stand­ ing next the north door, and one oow, are all, of the entire contents of the barn saved. The building contained the Doctor's favorite horse "Thunder­ bolt," a horse belonging to Professor Stanley, two harnesses, one tep carriage one open buggy, saddle aiid trappings, two cows, over a ton of oorn meal, a ton and a half of hay, 25 bushels of oats, one cook stove and numerous small articles. The Or. and Professor Stanley have, on all sides, met with the uiost marked sympathy from our people, and I heard the Dr. remark that his misfortune had shown him how uoble and how generous friends could be. The two horses were the, most re­ gretted loss as they were great pets frith their owners and families. The building was insured lu the American, of Chicago, for #200,00. Messrs Alexan­ der & Hyde, the Agents, sent notifica­ tion of the loss next morning aud a reply was returned ou the 27th that an adjusting agent would be at once sent on to settle the loss. I must not forget to state that the Babcockextinguishers, of which the village possesses two, did efficient service during the fire. gVA Httle son of Mr. litttmerB, who Uvea near Untoli, was on last Saturday accidently shot in his face by an older brother firing at him with a revolver with which they were fooling. The hft" entered the left ride cf the ft?«?c wear the oh$efc bone, and passing a lit­ tle upward todgeii near Use ear, as la suppose4, but lu whereabouts could not be defined either by Dr., Wernham or Dr, Green, both of whom searched diligently for It with tbe probe. Tbe wound Is not believed to be dangerous The boya were pi ay lug with the re­ volver, orw barrel having a load In, and it Is supposed they did not know It.-- The older boy, about nine years old, pointed the revolver at the younger, aud told him he would shoot him, anil biased away with the above result.-- Another warning to - parenta to' keep snch dangerous things out of the reach of children, and a warning to all never to point a shooting Iron of any kind at anybody, unless you , UiteutioauUy . or foolishly mean to commit murder.-- Marengo Republican. flSJTMr. MeFatland, who was tried In York for murdering Mr. Rich­ ardson, lives at South Bend, Ind. His former wlfb. Mrs. Abby Sage Richard­ son, went there last week to deliver a lecture, and It struck Mr. McFariand that it would be a sensational thing to attend the lecture, which he did, tak­ ing a prominent seat in front. During the delivery or the lecture lie did all that he could to attract the atteutlon of Mrs. Richardson, but the plucky aud sensible and self possessed Ionian paid no attention to liim whatever, and gave the audience no intimation of having recognizcd lilin. Those who catne to witness a scene went away disappoint­ ed, and there was nothing for Mr. Me* Farland to do but to go home aud go to bed. It is to be hoped sober* IflTTlie American Indians do Btot exterminate worth a cent. Rhetoric tells us that they are fading away be­ fore the onward progress of the white raen^but the*e progressive white men fall to see them fade. According to figure* officially collected the excess of births over deaths is considerable in a large number of the tribes, especially in the Sioux Confederacy, where their numbers have been quadrupled In forty years and more than doubled in thirty years.
