absence your letter refusing to sur
render Hi mm H. Kimpton, a fugi
tive from jiiBtice, arrested in Mass-
uchusctlH, for whoso delivery upon
indictment regulary found against
him here for a crime committed in
this State, I, as Governor of South
Carolina, mado ft demand upon the
Governor of Massachusetts in accor-,
•lance with the Constitution of the
United States and tbo act of Con
gress passed in pursuance thereof,
has fcniuihed unnhswered. I regret
that theChief Executive of the great
State of Massachusetts should have
eqpnnitt’cd,so flagrant ft Violation of
the hit promo law of the land, a vio
lation irreparable in its ltuturo, as
the State suffering thereby has nor
possible redreUi ■ Had jam confined
yourself to giving a simple refusal to
surrender the fugitive I shonld make
no furtW comment upon your let
ter. As the disregard by the Exec
utive-authority of ono State concerns
tho whole pooplo of the United
Slatos, and iuasmnch as you have
soon fit to base your action on the
ground that in your judgement the
object in procuring tho indictment
ugain^ 1 'Htlerhon, l’arkerjuid Kimp-
ton* apes not appear to ho for the
purpose of trying Kimpton for tho
oriino charged against him, hut for a
different purpose, it is my duty as
Governor of South Carolina to add
that your statement is entirely un
warranted, and to rebel tho un
worthy imputation, as I do, with in
dignant scorn.
I am your obedient servant,

Obtaining no answer, the irate
conductor passed on. As the train
stopped in the next town, tho con
ductor looked in the cur—tho seat
was empty.
Satisfied, the conductor passed
Hi rough tho cars as soon as they were
out of tho city. There sat the
threadbare personage in tho same
scat very much interested in tho

The conductor gnvo him a viscions

“Didn’t I tell you to get off, and
play off?”
“Yes. sir, of course.

when the train stoppod in Worcester,

Tho train steamed out of Worces

He approached him.

At Holyoke, Mass., last week, two

Dr. Joseph Jones insists that
burnt sulphur is tho best of disinfec
tants. Ho says that it is well estab
lished that a corpse subjected to tho
fumes of sulphurous acid nnd char
coal will remain without any decom
position. Thus, if a leg of mutton,
or a U t of tomatoes, or cars of corn,
be subjected to tho fumesof sulphu
rous acid and charcoal, they may be
preserved in water which has been
exjmsod to tho samci treatment, and
will keep for months uml yours with
out any change. Dr. Jones rccom-
'vioudod this long ngo to the New
Orleans Board of Health, but the

advisable to test tho strength of the

the Uew palace at Potsdam. With
that view, a number of soldiers wore
ordered to enter into a double file,
aud to their great surprise, were
then ordered to dnuoo the polka.
They at first considered the matter
as a joke, but as the strains of the
hand gave them encouragement they
went t hrough both a polka and a
gallop. The floor was found satis
