A son of L. B. Garlinghouse of Canandaigua, a boy of ten years, becoming unruly at school one day last week, Mr. Miller, the teacher, gave him a whipping, whereupon the father of the lad procured a horsewhip, and when Mr. Miller was passing along the street, proceeded to chastise him; not being satisfied with this, he procured a warrant for Miller, and after an investigation of the case, the Jury concluded that the boy deserved the flogging, and justified Miller in administering it. It is now Mr. Miller's turn to take Mr. Garlinghouse for an assault.

Death of Leman B. Garlinghouse - In our last week's paper we gave an account of the severe accident that befell Mr. Garlinghouse. We little thought then, that his injuries would terminate fatally. But from the first hour after his removal home, he sank rapidly, and on Thursday evening the dread messenger of death came, and "life's fitful fever" had ended forever. Mr. Garlinghouse was a son of the late Sheriff Garlinghouse of this county. He had long been engaged in active business here where his life was passed. He was one of our most enterprising and active business men, and by his industry at one time had accumulated more than a competency. But through the vicissitudes of fortune, and the adverse termination of litigations, in the last few years he had seen his hard earned money take wings and pass into the hands of others. However much fortune had frowned upon him, he was not one to bow down to it, but on the contrary he had already matured his plans for the future, and had entered into arrangements with Hon. Jarvis Lord to superintend a distillery at Pittsford. Mr. Garlinghouse will leave a vacant place in our midst, that will be long before it is filled. In common with the whole community we tender to his afflicted family our warmest sympathy in this the hour of their dire misfortune.
