  Two Perry County Deaths.
  
    Hon. Martin Motzer, a well known and highly respected citizen of 
  Perry county, whose residence was near Andersonburg, died on Saturday 
  last in the 78th year of his age.  He was elected associate judge of 
  Perry county on the "Know Nothing" ticket in 1854, but the following 
  year identified himself with the republican party, of which he ever 
  after remained a member.  He was also the first superintendent of the 
  soldiers' orphan school at Andersonburg and was connected with the 
  institution until within a short time of its abandonment.
