FRIDAY. JANUARY 31. 1873 SST \ B LISH KD IS50. Letter from Darien. A Steamer Sauk—The Coart Hoase Burnt to the Ground—Two Wight* ofExci(cmcut-*The Magnolia Houite Besieged. [Special Correspondence of the Morning News.] Darien, January 29. 1873. Friday night last the steamer Nick King snagged a mile below town and began to ill w^h water. Captain King succeeded in ruuni g her up to tho Dariea wharf and the head-line was flung out and made fast, but she wa t sinking so fast that there was no lime to laud passengers, much less freight. The line was cut and she drifted to the opposite side ol the river, where the water is comparatively shallow. There was som;; excitement, but fortu nately no lives were lost. The passougers were landed in Kmall boats, some crying loudly for hylp. Those on shore render ed every possible assistance. Much of the freight was injured by water. She will be raised ia a few days. THE COURT HOUSE BURNT. Saturday night, between the honrs of eight and nine, the Court House was dis covered iu flames. It was evidently the wbrk ol an incendiary. The County Com missioners have offered a reward of $200 tor the arr. st and conviction of the gni.ty party The Conrt House was built since the war at a cost of five thousand dollars, and was not qaite finished or paid tor. A jailor’s boas- had just been built, and a nigh aud substantial fence, inclosing that part used as a penitentiary, at a cost of one thousand dollars. The loss to the county is six thousand dollars, together with the archives, which were all burnt. It a a heavy blow, oa the county, as the finances, by previous mis management for several years, arain a bad condition. The county papers are quite a loss, and will be likely to create much confu sion. The papers burnt date b*ck as far as 1785—they might have b«*on saved could a Udder have been found. It is always so. TWO NIGHTS or EXCITEMENT. Darien has not been so much excited nince the war, au^ it is to be hoped she may not be till another war tak»s piace, which, as one of our .citizens said, he hoped would be way down in the visia of the future. ^ Ladies crying for help, to be s.tved from drowning, and the fire-king lighting n t the heavens and threatening other bnilJ ings r- jth flaming tongues, w?.g enough to quicken the blood in the vein*. Many have not got over the excitement yet, aud are going around with a wild look. One person fainted, and all the rest lost two nights’ re*a. Morpheas is above par now. This is a changing world. THE MAGNOLIA HOUSE BESIEGED. The passengers, numbering about fifty, went ' > the Magnolia House, where they had a jolly time. Most of them were from the North and on their way to Florida Our gimHemanly landlord, Mr. A. E. Car, is equal to any emergency, and with a akill ind tact peealiar to landlords, very readily accommodated all, so much so that all seem contented aud happy. It is qui'e lively now aboat the hotel. The ladies add much to the gaiety. This house is well patronized generally, but now it is full. Two billiard tables are at tbs service of the guests, and help them to while the honra away! Time is up now. Lightning. Horrible Case op Infanticide.—Jef- f-rson City, Mo., is at present aomawhat excited over an unusually horrible case of infanticide, the youth aud unquestionable beauty of the guilty mother adding not a little to the sensational interests of the crime. Amanda Letter, a rosy-cheeked, bine-eyed German blonde, whose counte nance .nd form fail completely to tell ot a deoraved heart, on the let of last June became the wife of Edward hneider, a fireman on the Missouri Pacific Railroad, and, unfortunately for their connubial fe licity, lass than six months afterwards gave birth to a bright-eyed boy, whom Schneider refused to recognize *4 his, bat pronounced a bastard. This led to many quarre s between him and the fair ^ALuanda, and to an infamous agreement sbe should leave their home and go ”st. L juis to ther© leal a life of shame. This hettled, tho idease6ms to have enter ed her head that she should kill her child before departing. An unsuccessful effort to smother it to death by laying on ;t in bed, and another to freeze it to d«ath, by pbttiag it out for hours in a cold room, were therefore promptly followed by a third, anu, this time, successful effort to destroy it on Tuesday evening, the 18th. Left alone with it, she locked and barri caded the front door of her home, fasten ed the other doors and all the windows, got an axe, laid the child on a block brought in from the wood-pile, and with wo blows of the axe almost completely sever* d the child’s head from its body. Some minutes later the husband and some neighbors broke open the doers and found the Wi-mun alone with the dead, crying and mattering incoherently to herself. Arretted and imprisoned, she has repeat edly acknowledged the terrible crimo, but oiten with such strange expression! that many too charitably deem her crazy; *bnt more look npon her as nothing less than h fiend in human form, led by vice and domestic infelicity to this horrible butch ery of her own offspring. l Yi?ou 1W -v jq» » E Signals. - Tho ne- ffine bipn.? a !^ , . rin Bystem of national j ^ illustrated by the terri- S K#rth*i of the emigrant ln t* 16 English channel, J? ^ »iu 0 Wec *’ when she was stove w hich is believed also I? kufcdrJ 111 * the collision.

Oue was oc cupied by a lady and the other by a Chinaman. She explained to him that she wished to take the cushions and their frames and place them lengthwise across from seat to seat. John said “all rightee,” and got out in the aisle, and she pro ceeded to lie down on the bed thus im provised, with her head resting on her valise. She supposed that the Chinaman would Like the hiut that the lady wanted to reA in the space usually occupied by four persons. Bat John at once pro ceeded to crawl in aud stretch himself by her side, with his head on a little bundle of his own. The Chinese are an imitative rac9, and like to do as others do, yon know. Tae lady, «s soon as she dis covered that she had a bed-follow, got up a little wildly, and started for the n#xt car, to the ^infinite amusement of the passengers, who had been watching the sc< ne with some interest. John took to notice of the fun he had created, but went to sleep with the whole bed to him self. Black Snow.—The Keokuk (Iowa) Con stitution of the 13th says: “Ou last Tues day afternoon commtncod the great snow storm of the winter, and tho greatest storm of the West tor many years. It continued until Wednesiay afternoon; then set in a furious wind, which took the snow from the hills and piled it up in 1^® valleys. On Thursday morning the in habitants of the northern portion of this State, when they awoke, were not a little surprised at seeing the earth covered with a black Mislead of a white garment, as it was cn the night before. This strange and nnnatural phenomenon is accounted for on the supposition that after the wind had swept the snow off the hills then the dry earth was taken up and scattered over the face of the snow, givftig it this pecu liar coloring. This would be a satisfac tory exp anation if this unusual appear ance had been confine i to localities, but accounts say it was general.” The United States Government appears to be exercised upon the subject of eman cipation in Cuba. All well enough; slavery id unquestionably aD evil, n J ucl J to be deprecated wherever it may exist, it is to be lamented, however, that the Gov ernment should confine its sympathy up on the subject to the negro only; the slavery of a large portion of onrown race, much nearer home, is as abject as any that ever tightened the bonds of an African, Sonth Carolina, Alabama, Louisi ana and Arkaqsas, for instance. Let CnDa be free, but lets emancipate our white slaves first.—Richmond Whig. Radicalism at the South. [From the Loudon Standard. January 3 ] Almost every mail irom America brings us some new lilnstralion of the miserable condition of tbe Southern S:atea, under j the rule of the party which has acquired another four years’ lease of power. Three facts, concerning three of the noblest States of the old Union, are noted m a single paper. Lomsiaua has fallen into 3uch utter anarchy that two aeveral sets ot State officers and two separate Legis latures have claimed the obedience of me citizens; of which, it would seem, that neither party was even decently respecta ble, and the quarrel was altogether so dis reputable that, though the interests of the dominant faction at Wasuing on were in volved, General Grant shrank at first from interference. Finally, be decided to in terpose in behalf of his friends, and, sup ported by a decree of the Supreme Court of the Union, (which stems to have aboat as much to do with the matter, under ancient constitutional rules, as the Court of Qaeefl’e Bench), he has ordered the Federal troops to uphold the authority of the party represented by the negro Lieu tenant Governor Pinchbaok—the party more odions of the two to the respectable people of Lonisiana. The Legislature of Souih Carolina, from which the South Carolinians are excluded, and which s composed of emancipated negroes and Northern adventurers, has elected as United States Senator a member of the latter class, who has secure » his election by wholesale purchases ol the votes of ue- ijro Legislators. A dispu e arose there upon, aud one of the supporters of the beaten (negro) candidate expressed his disgust in such very explicit language as led, in American parlance, to “a free tight” around the Speaker’s chair. Finally, the State of Alabama, once among the most solvent aud best trusted in the Union, has parchased and sold a railwaj; and, having neither paid tho money for the first purchase nor received that for the second, is exposed to tho humiliation of seeing the property held «ud sold under au order in bankruptcy. It is needless to say that no such thing* could have Happened under the old reqime. Men lik« Warmoth and Pinch- back would never have been elected to govern th* citizms of Lonisiana while the Southern whites elected their own rulers. A Patterson would never have dreamt of offering himself a* a candidate tor the seat once filled by J^haC. Cal- honn; and if ho had, his election would have been as impossible as the receipt of bribes by the chivalry of the Palmetto State. Aud iu tne old days Alabama’s credit was as good as tba: of Canada; and her citizens were as justly proud and jetriQU.* of her financial honor as English men of the fiscal credit and '^ood faith of England. These wretched scenes are part and parcel of reconstruction pur sued by a Radical Congress, and ap plauded by English Liberals. The first object of that system wa3 revenge—the punishment and degradation of the South ern “rebels.” The second was tbe estab lishment of Radical ascendancy in the South. The Radicals know that at tho timo of Lincoln’s election they were a minority in tho North; and after the war, which had given them the ascendancy there, was over, they might become a minority again. Bat if they could ap propriate the franchises of the Southern Slates to their creatures, and thus secure a number of “rotten boroughs,” whose representatives would be nominated by themselves, without regard to the wishes of the people, they might contrive, though iu a popular minority everywhere, to maintain themselves in possession of the Presidency, the electoral college, and a majority in both branches of Congress. Iu order to effect these ends, it was neces sary to disfranchise the real people of the South, and create a “bogus” people in their stead. The first wss done by means of the pcnsl acts so lavishly passed by Congress. America prides herself npon having shad no blood on the scaffold. It is trao that she did not, as other conquering Govern msnts have done, taka the lives of the chiefs of tho vanquished party. Bat it is sqnally true that she has inflicted upon the conquered people, as a whole, heavier punishmont than has ever been imposed by modern conqacrors npon a large por tion of their subjects. Wholesalo disfran chisement, subjection to the rule of en franchised slaves, aud a systtmof govern ment directed tc fleece the conqnered country for the benefit of its conquerors, have, for seven or eight years, perpetua ted distress and exasperated the bitter feelings left by a war carried on with un usual ferocity. In half the States of tho South a negro constituency, organized under the leadership of adventurers from the North, has monopolized political pow er; has excluded the Southerners from all participation in the control of their own affairs; has taxed them without allowing them representation, and misspent the produce ot those taxes in such a manner as to add tho keenest sense of humiliation to the bitterest consciousness of injury. The honor of States as honorable as Great Britaii has been dragged in the dust; their debts have been left unpaid while their people have been fleeced; their ru lers have filled their own pockets with the produce of unlawful bonds issued at an enormous discount; and whiie the ne groes, who pay no taxes, have been k?pt in good hnmor by libera! appropriations, none of the real Deeds of the country have been attended to. The forces of the Federal Government have been at the disposition of the pecu lators and jobbers from the North who ex ploit the negrees for their own benefit. All remonstrance has been vain. It was as easy as it was useless to expose the in justice, to foreshow the effects, of such a polioy. The Radical majority in Congress cared neither tor tbe injustice, nor the conscquenses, so long as they profited by the one and th6 Southerners soffered by the other. They maintained and aggra vated a tariff which compels the Southern planter or farmer to pay twice the valua of everything he buys—taxes him, that is, to the lull extent of bis proper yearly outlay on implement*, clothing, everything necessary to bis cultivation, not for the benefit of the Union, but for the personal advantage of Northern traders and manu facturers. Show them that this ia to ruin the Sonth, and they are all the better pleased; for hostility to the Southern people is the avowed policy of their party. Gallant and high-spirited cations have been misgoverned before now. Hungary and Venetia were ill-ruled after 1849, but at least their rulers have intended them to prosper if they would bat be content Bat never before has a nation been gov erned as tbe Sonth has been governed since 1865. by rulers whose avowed ob ject is to punish and injure them—never before have rulers been the open enemies of the cocntry they ruled. It is in vain, of coarse, to appeal to such a faction against the folly of their course. Bat we might havo thought that those who had no selfish end to gain must have seen that every object, we do not say inherently good, but decently plausible, mast suffer by sach a policy. Grant that the w elfare of the negro is of indefinitely more moment than that of the white man—grant that it is right to sacrifice the latter as completely as may be necessary for the elevation of the for mer—grant more than the wildest of ne- grophile fanatics would dare to claim— is it not clear that to embitter tbe strong against the weak, the larger number against the smalltr, the higher race against the lower, must eDd in the ruin of tbe latter ? Tho present state of thioga cannot last forever, and every year that it lasts makes the change more .dangerous to the haplet.8 creatures who are made the tools of oppression and injustice. It is proposed to pay a yeai’s Presiden tial salary for a painting unknown to art as “The First Reading of the Emancipa tion Proclamation." The bill cunningly obviates objection by providing that when bought the picture shall be kept “for the use of Congress.” It is proper that body should endure such penance as a constant contemplation of this production.— World. A Strange Casualty.—Cairo., Ill, Jan uary 27.—John Hunt, colored, while employed in slaughtering hogs to-day, placed the bntt of a rifle on the ground with the muzzle leaning against his breast, when his powder horn fell on the hammer in such a manner as to discharge the pieoe, killing him instantly. A GREAT BEAR HUNT. Dexperate Fight Bftween Two Men h nd Four Beast* — Pike County Aroused. Blooming Grove, Pa,, Janaary 23.—A few days since Bart Hazea and another man named SLater, two well known hunt ers of this seciion, discovered the tracks of several bears near this place. Signs of bear at this season of the year being a most nnusn-il occurrence, they determin ed to f .'l!ow them up and, if possible, cap ture or kill the animals. Taking their rifl-s, Shafer and H:zen started on the trail, and bef >r^ti<^y had followed it a great way they came up to oue of the nears. When it discovered the hunters it star ed briskly away, but was hit by a ball from one of the rifles. This only added to the .-peed of its flight and it was soon oat of sight, going towards the High Knob, north of the Blooming Grove Park. Besides the track leL in the snow by its feet a trail of blood also marked th^ coarse the bear took, showing that the' ball had taken effect somewhere npon it. Tne wonnded bear kept in the trail of its companions and the hnnters were confi dent of ultimately coming upon them alt in their winter quarters. The tracks led to tue south side of the kDob, where they entered a dense laurel thicket. Hazen and Shafer made their way into this and finally came to where a largo tree had fallen, the roots of which had torn ont a large quantity of earth, by a huge rock, formieg a deep and dark cavern. The month of this was closed bj laurels and boughs broken off aud evidently placed by the bears themselves. Into this cavern all the tracks led, except that of the wounded bear. This one passed on aloDg the foot of tho monutaia, leaving its bloody trail. When Shufer and Hazen fonnd that the bear* were brought to bay, they set about to find means to get them out in order that they might get a shot. They coaid tell from tho tracks that there were at least four of the animals in the cavern, two old ones and two cabs. The hnnters were anxious that bat one of the bears should come out at once, as they would have more than their hands full in any other event. They finally decided to build a fire at tile month of the cave and smoke ont the inmates, being ready to shoot the instant one appeared. One of the men crept cautiously ap to the cavern, and Ptartefi a fire us far inside a* he dare vent are, and then retreated. Tney both stood ready to shoot. In a short time a movement was seen among the laurels, and the head of a huge sh# bear appeared. Her actions so surprised the hnnters, however, that neither .of them fired. She coolly approached the fire they had bniit aud trampled it out with her feet, aud with an angry growl rotreated into the lair. The flro was rebuilt and again the bear appeared and smothered it with her paws. Seeing that the singular intelli gence of Ike brute would foil *heir attempt at smoking the bears ont, the men de termined to reb :ild the fire, and when the bear again came ont to smother it risk shooting her in the very mouth of the den. Tho firo was started again, and as before the old bear came out, this time growling and snarling and trampling the burning boughs in a terrible fury. Before she had finished, however, a ball from Shafer’s rifle went crashing into her brain. Raising on her haanches and breaking through the tangled laurels, shs rushed ont of the cave with her jaws wide open, bat fell dead before she had taken halt a • dozen paces in the clearing the banters had made in the thicket before commenc ing their operations. ibis lncky shot emboldened and en couraged Hazi-n and Shafer to continue thetr line of attack. After drawing the carcas of the dead bear away Hazen crept ag .in to the mouth of the den, and was about lighting another tire, when the mate of the bear jaat killed mshed ont, and raising up on its hind feet made di- j rectly,for Hazen, who had sprang to his fe»:t when he heard the approach of the bear from within, but not in time to re treat. Hazen stood between Shafer and the boar, aud the latter did not dare to fire lor fear of shooting his companion. Besides, they had not calculated on such *n event as this, and were totally unpre pared to maul i'.. Theie was no time to lose, however, lor the enraged brute had his immense paws on Hazeo’s shoulder* before he had fairly recovered from his surprise. Fortunately he had in its sheath by his side his hunting hatchet, ibis he quickly drew out, and before the bear could g 1 him in its embrace he dealt it a terrible blow on the side ol the head, bringing it to the ground. Instead of springing back oat of the way and giving Suafer an opportunity to shoot the am- 1 mal, Hazen continued the attack with his J hatchet, and tho contest at once became again a hand to hand one. Hazen is a young but powerful man, ami agile as a c it, which eavo him considerable advau- | tage iu the fight. Notwithstanding this bnater soon saw that his companion coaid | not long stand up against the immense power of the bear, and, not daring to shoot, he too unsheathed his hatchet, and rushed to Hazen’s aid, attacking the bear in the rear. The shaggy brute maintained his ground against his two assailants for a short time, but dually from iosa of blood and lack of that strength which at any ether season would have been much greater, he was forced to succumb,, and fell bleeding and dying at their feet. A nfle bail ended the existence he had so fiercely battled to maintain. Hazen’s clothing was aboat all torn from him. He received several ugly flesh wounds on various parts of his body. These were dressed, and after a short rest tho hnnters concluded to finish the other two bears that remained in the cavern. These they knew were onbs, and they did not antici pate any great difficulty in dealing with them. They determined to adhere to the smoking process, and accordingly a tire was made farther in the cave, and soon dense smoke penetrated to every corner of it. Bat a few minutes elapsed before a bear was heard breaking through the laurels in a different place from that at whioh the first two had gone out. Pres ently it broke through. It was about half grown. Casting a hasty glance around at the hunters, it started to run off in the opposite direction. Its course was slopped by a ball striking it in the fore leg. Bear-like, it raised op on its hannohes at this and turned a fall front to the hnnters, growlingand snarling furi ously. Another shot brought it to the ground and killed it. Shafer and Hazen were positive that there was another bear in the lair, bat all attempts at smoking him cat failed. Neither of the hnnters car«d to venture within t e cave, as they had had quite enough of wrestling with a bear. Failing to get the bear to come out, they began reconnoitering for a place where they could see into the don, with the object of shooting the remaining bear. They finally succeeded in cutting a hcle through thd laurels at a point from where tbe in terior cf the oavern could be seem Build ing a large fire to light it up within, they discovered the hear crouched back in the farthest corner against a rock. Two shots fired into it dispatched it, and the hunters dragged it out in triumph. Being somewhat exhausted with their day’s work tho men concluded not to start in pursuit of the fifth bear—the one they had wounded earlier in the day. Re turning to this place they procured as sistance and the four dead bears were bronght in. This was the most successful and dar ing bear hunt ever known in the Pike county region, and has created quite a sensation. Week before last “Jerry” Greening and his son Cose, famous hunters, captured three deer alive while going from their place at Shobola Falls to Milford—a back, a doe with fawn, and a fawn.

About a year ago great mi itaiy prepa rations in Russia attracted the attention of Europe. Various speculations were in dulged as to the object. As her relations with Turkey were amicable, it was con cluded that she had hostile designs against some of the great European pow ers, aud public opinion stremtd to he di vided as to whether it was Austria or Prussia that she was aiming at. Since then the Emperors of Russia. Germany and Auhtria have had a conference in Berlin, and seemed to be ou agreeable terms with each other. Wh iner any mis chief was hatched in that conference af fecting other powers is not known 10 this day. The object of the military prepa rations in Bosnia is still a mystery. The Czar is not in the habit of communica ting his plans with great frankness. Darkness, reserve and reticence charac terize him and his Cabinet. It is, how ever, known that lor years be has been seoretly at work in Asia, and has never vouchsafed any explanations of his movements. The tramp of his soldiers can already be heard in the neighborhood of the frontier of British India. If his steady march in the direction of Hindus tan; if his menace of Afghanistan do not mean hostility to England, it will be difficult to explain what they do mean. Tue Toronto (Canada) Lender, a well informed journal upon such flDpics, de clares that “the progress of Russia in tee Asiatic coiMjnent may force us into a war with that power on behalf of some of the frontier nations. Persis, Afghanistan aud Tnibet are all safeguards to <>nr fiou- tier, aud if any of ttu-rn be threatened— a* nothing is more likely—then -u Anglo- Rnssian war is inevitable.” Tbe same paper contends that the pacification and development of Ind a, so as to have the people with England, and not against her, in the event of a war, is the best prepara tion for it. This policy she ha* carried oat to a considerable extent, having spent about $100,000,000 in railways, establish ed more than 25,000 educational insula tions, and in tbe last ten years spent on an average between sixty and seventy millions of dollars on public works, be sides railways—&ucu as irrigation, roads : jails, hospitals, barracks, court houses and other works of •. pnblio nature.— These facts were recently stated by Hon. Mr. Burke, a member of the English Hons© of Commons, in a speech delivered to hia constituents at King's Lynn, on the relations b tween Eugiand aud India. And yet it is a matter of donbt if the natives of Asia, who affiliate with Rus sians better than EogiiBhmen, have been so far conciliated a> to make them en tirely reliable in a war between England and Russia. Such a war in Asia would be a war between barbarism and civilization. Forty-one millions of Russians proper are little better than savages. Wherever her conquests have extended she has brought nothing of civilization but its vices. Hence ihe overthrow of British dominion in India might be fairlv regardtd as a tri umph of barbarism. Where England could look for allies in sack a content except to Turkey we ctfnnot imagine. France, her old ally ip the East, was deserted by Eng land in the war with Germany, and Gei- many is alienated by reason of the sym pathy of England, barren as it was, with Frau- e. Tn<-re may be some in the Uni ted States who would be foolish enough to sympathize with Russia in a war with England, and only regret that the Ger man conference has so bound her hands that she cannot let loose Alabama* npon British commerce.—Baltimore Sun.

THE IN HALIM* SYSTEM PERFECTED BY DR. J. A. JONES, WHO 18 NOW PRACTICING AT Brown’s Hotel, in Hreoo, Ga., Where he b&e been per.-uidod to ri>maiu Until February 10th, 1873. The French Situation — Gambbttas Views.—The Herald’s Paris lotter of the 9th contains an interview with G&mbetta, iu which he says that the Republican cause never l.oked brighter in France than now. In districts where Republi canism never before fonnd root, we find friendship. When the Assembly curnes together after the recess it is toast proba ble that the Monarchists wid make one more desperate, despairing effort to overthrow Thiers, or rather to re duce him into the position of a mere minister of the Right. This will be th« great parliamentary battle. We are apt to h ive it about February, but it will be the last effort of the Monarchists. They will be bo iten as they have been beaten always whenever they dared the issue, and we shall slowly, surely drift npon dis solution (of the Assembly.) Thi9 solu tion. d ssoiation I mean, should come aboat May. Yon see by May the Prus-^ s:&nu will have been paid the fonrth mil liard; bat one more will remain, aud fc-r that abundant financial guarantees will be given. There can then bo no farther use lor postponing dissolution. The Prus sians* so I interest in French politics is a pecuniary and they know fall well I that they are much more likely to have 1 ’heir filth m.i.iard promptly it ti e country is quiet than if it is disturbed. Disturbed and uneasy it will be if the present As sembly is not dissolved in six months. The diss lotion of the Assembly all rests with Thiexs. He has only to sty “I can not govern France with the aid of the As 8t?mbly,” and the work is done. Bogus Revenue Officials and Swind ling Commissioners —Letters sent to the Internal Revenue Office from North Caro lina show that some parties in that State are engaged in falsely representing them selves to be in authority as revenue offi cials- even to the extent of issuing bogus commissions and letters of im-traction to people unwary bnongh to be their dupes. A letter from one of these ille gally created officers was received to-day, the i^iter enclosing his commission, which is filled in tbe printed blank, with the letter-sheet and envelope both Stamped “Internal Revenue Office, Wash ington.” The writer had been mad« a secret superintendent by James Woodward, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and writes here to know when bis pay, which was fixed in his commission at $1,500, would commence. The Department returns the commis sion to the sender, with the intormation that it is worthless, aud that there is no such person as James Woodward, Com missioner of Internal Rever.no. It is evident from ihe printed headings to the documents used in this business that a system of fraud, :o be practiced npon people who are not acquainted with official terms or persons, had been inaugu rated in North Carolina, and it was ex tended to other parts of the South. Serious Conflict of Judicial Forces. —Salt Lake, January 27.—Thi conflict of authority between the Federal and local conrt* is evidently approaching a crisis, as Judge Hawley reiterates his former de cision that the Probate Courts of the Ter ritory have no chancery or common law jurisdiction, civil or criminal. Ia the great cattle case he gave the prisoners habeas corpus, but held them as a committing Magistrate. The Mormon officials still threaten and defy the process of the Unit ed States courts. It is thonght Hawley will arrest Loveo„ one of the Probate Judges, for contempt AH the principal members of the bar of Salt Lake are join ing in a memorial to President Grant for such legislation as will enable the courts instituted by the organic act to perform their duties. Unless something is done speedily much injury to the interests of the Territory is anticipated. Great hope of relief is entertained from the bill of Senator Logan, and it is thonght its pas sage will settle all difficulty. ► The Widow of Bill Poole Drowned.— Mrs. Livinia Smiley, forty-seven years of age, was drowned at the foot of Morton street, at 1£ o’clock Sunday morning. Mrs. Smiley was formerly Miss Lozier, and was subsequently married to Bill Poole, who was snot by Lew Baker. Af ter Poole’s death she wan married to Mr. Frank Smiley. On Saturday evening she, accompanied by Mr. DeWitt Sheldon and other members of an organization known as “The Old Tops,” made up a surprise party, aud called on Capb Hitchcock, of the ship America, lying at the foot of Morton street. At 1£ o’clock Sunday morning they left the vessel, and Mr*. Smiley, slipping on tbe gangway, which wa* frozen over, feli into the dock. A sailor named Wynne, jumped overboard, and seizing her made a gallant but inef fectual attempt to save her life. She sank, and her body was found at seven o’clock yesterday morning frozen to a piece of ice. We have reports from tho North of ter rible storms of snow accompanied by loud thunder and vivid lightning. It is not to be wondered at. The atmosphere certain ly required purifying. We doubt, how ever, the efficacy of this effort of nature to relieve itself. We fear nothing less tnan Gabriel’s Trump, or an earthquake, at least, will make a serious impression. [Richmond Whig Poetic—A yonng man in town made his girl a present the other day, and on a slip of paper aecompanying it he indited the poetic sentiment: “To my am to be wife.” The girl says what am to be, will be bat.ahe thinks this amn’t to be. Exercise with the Stiletto.—The New York fitm gives the particulars of 4he attempted assassination of two boye iu that cuy on Sunday night, by one of the recently arrived immignints from Italy. It says: “About 9 o’clock Leaver became frantio with drink, and rushed into the street with a drawn dirk in his hand. Ho weut r.p Park street on a ran, threatening to kill every one he met. Running from Park street into an alley, he encountered Richard Keiley, colored, aaed 17, of 35 Baxter street. The lad ; iied to avoid Leaver, bat the enraged Delian was loo quick for him. With the agility cf a cat and tLe ferocity of a tiger, he sprang npon the unoffending lad, and, wi'h a fearful oath, plunged the dirk into bis rieht side. Kelley fell to the ground, and L aver continued his race up the alley. He next encountered Peter (.'alia, an Italian newsboy, aged 16. Calla jumped hastily to one side as he saw Leaver approaching with the knife, up raised »nd dripping with blood. Leaver spiaug lor him un*i Caila dodged, but the madman was too quick for the boy, and drove the knife into his breast. By this time th6 denizens of the alley had been thoroughly aroused, and started out in a body ia chase of the would-be murderer. When he saw that* he was pursued he threw the knit© from him, and entering a neighboring tenement he mounted to the roof and tried to conceal himself by lying -flat behind the fire wail of the building. At this juncture the police arriv«J and captured him. The boys wereseverd!^ wounded.” Madison as a Temperance Man.—Many year* ago, when the temperance move ment began in Virginia, ex-President Madison lent the weight of bis influence to the cause. Case bottles and decanters disappeared from the sideboard at Mont pelier—wine was no longer dispensed to the many visitors at that hospitable man sion. Nor wus this all. Harvest begaD, but the customary barrel of whisky wa« not parchased, and the song of the scythe- men in the wheat field languished. I lieu of whisky, there was a beverage most in nocuous, cnstimnlating and unpalatublu to tbe army of dusky laborer*. The following morning Mr. Madiscn called in bis head man to make tbe usual inquiry, “Nelson, how comes on the crop ?’’ “Po’ly, Mars Jeems—monsns po’ly.” “Why, what’s the matter?” “Things is revus ” “What d> you mean by serious?” “Wo gwine los* dstcrap.” “Los© the crop! Why should we lose it?” “ ’Canau dat ar crap ar heap too big a crap to be getkered 'thunt whisky. ’Lasses aud water never gethered no crap sence d« wori’ war’ made, ner ’taint gwine to.” Mr. Madison .succumbed. The whisky was procured, tho “crap” was “gethered,” case bottles aud decanters reappeared, and tho ancient order was restored at Montpelier, never again to be disturbed. A Duel to the Death.—LouisviUe, Jan. 27.—Friday last atPiney, a branch station in Rockcastle county, on the Knoxville branch road. Geo. W. Marray, manager of the tramway in connection with the coal mine, in a quarrel with a yonng man named Walter Bledso, knocked him off the tramway. Bled«o*s step-brother, Leo Arnold, accosted Marray about it a lew minutes later, when the latter drew a pistol bat threw it down, and the two commenced fighting. Finding he was overpowering him, Marray reached for tbe pistol and shot his adversary through the stomach,’inflicting a mortal wound. Arnold sprang up, seized a handspike, aufi literally beat oat Marray’s brains with it, killing him instantly. Arnold still lingers, bat the physicians say be cannot live. Both men were married and have families. Dr. JONES* new method of coring diseM** ol tee LUNGS and THROAT. Aaih'ma, bronchitis, 'J rachetis, Lsyragetis, Consumption, Enlarged Tonsils, Pleorltis, breaking up congestion of the LUNGS and LIVlR, and effecting enres of the Respiratory Organs with certainty and case, that caanot be reached by any other method. Hi* remedlfs are reduced to warm spray—are specific in their nature—they reach the whole diseased surface at every breath—they are carried directly Into the blood without having to go through the process of digestion, only certain prepared remedies can bo used by this system, and they are such a* the disease demands, and are reduced to warm atr, which the patient Inhales, breathes, thus bringing the remedie immedi ately to all parts of the diseas’d organ, produc ing immediate relief and a permanent cure in the most pleasant manner. Dr. Jones breaks up the disease at once and prepares all that is neceseary to finish the care, which the patiunt is taught in au hour to u*e at home, with entire success. Thus ths insidious and heretofore fatal diseases of the Lungs and Throat are now cared with certainty ln a very pleasant manner at your own home. He straightens Cross Eyes.

Our readers will peruse with the deepest inter est the accompanying card o! Mr. R. W. White, of this city, relating to his wonderful relief from Diabetes, that terrible malady which usually de fies all human skilL 8o thoroughly impregnated with saccharine matter were the urinary deposits of the sick man, that when subjected to evaporation, candy bad actuallr been the residuum. Most of his living had been spent unavailingiy for medical advice and treatment, and death seemed inevitable. But in the hands of LI* eminent practitioner, hla restoration baa been rapid and complete, and now he appears ou ihe etand to tell the story of hi* unexpected resurrection almost from the very Jaws of the grave. Dr. Jones is daily performing other wonderful cures, and his fame is drawing to him patients even from the neighboring States. Yesterday he performed delicate and successful operations upon two ladies for cross eyes snd cataract, one of whom had ceme from South Carolina to con- RUlt him. In diseases of the ear, too, ho is squally skillful, snd inserts artificial drams or tympanums, when that organ has been destroyed by coccu&slone or otherwise. These are very cu riously and delicately framed of India rubber. The public will be glad to learn that his dlstln- gaiahed physician Las consented to remain a f*w d*ys longer at his quarter* at the Brown Honse. The sick tnd suffering wodld do well to lay their cases before him without delay. While there is life there is hope. Remarkable and Great Curb of Diabetes— (.\UGAB IS THE URINE)— BT Du. J. A. JONES.— For nearly three years I was sick unto death with that dreadful disease diabetes—eugar in the urine— during which time my suffering* language could not deacirbe. My disease was contracted in Sep tember, i870—nearly three years ago—while in the employ of Uol. Edmund Harrison, ln Mont gomery, Ala., who knows of 1117 case well. I was treated by ail the best physicians of the principal 6ontbern cities, and nearly all of them gave up my c.<se a* incurable, alter treating me for weeks cr months. I also tried the mountain air of Bir mingham, Ala., and tried bitter* and all kinds of patent medicines. Nothing reached my disease, or touched the root of It, or changed my urine, which was white, and soon after belug voided in the sun crystelized into sugar. I had to get up every half hour during the night to drink and void watsr. Everything I ate and drank turned into sugary uriae; and thus, by ounces, I was wasted and reduced from a strong, healthy, stout’ man of 170 pounds, to a skeleton of 69 pounds. Forty-eight hours after I commenced Dr. Jcnea’ treatment my nrine changed to a natural color with the natural odor, and in a few da>s my pains and ills all left me, and I feel as well as I aver did in my life; have good, natural appetite, natural and regular bowels, snd am gaining my formsr activity and strength daily, but my teeth are loose and discolored from the bed effects of the mar ea ry, Iron, arsenic, etc., given me before I saw Dr. Jones. I^ave not taken over an ounce of medicine from Dr. Jones, and It was pleasant to take, and he never changed hie remedy, and gave me but one small bottle of that, but it went to the very spot, and I and my wife both saw that I waa cured, and I both felt and saw it afrer the first twenty-four honra’ use ol Dr. Jones’ medicine. I feel that I owe my life to ihe skill of this greet physician, for my shroud was prepared and at my bedside, and my disease was pronounced incura ble by so mauy physicians, some of them stating that no person had ever been cured of diabetes. R. W. Whitb, Macon, Ga. I know Mr. White; have known him for many years, snd esn testify to the truth of the above remarkabie curs by Dr. J. A. Jones. E. E. Brown, Propristor Prown’s Hotel, Macon, Ga. January 10,1873. Diseased Sheep.—Four thonsand sheep suffering from a contagions skin disease have been sent to New York from Illinois and slaughtered, and the meat has been distributed about ihe city. The Tribune says this meat can hardly be distinguished from good mutton, though a close scrnliny will show the veins to be of a bluer tint than in nndiseased fish. A large fire occurred in the town of Kingstree, S. C. t Monday morning last, destroying stores and dwellings to the value of filty thonsand dollars. One-focrth insured. Hear What one of the hblest Physicians in Alabama says of Dr. Jones’ Treatment—Osoena Cured. I have bran aeffering lor five years with ozoena (an offensive disorder of the nose) of the worst form, having in that time tried al! the remedies spoken of in the medical books, and naed in the common practice, and grew worse under them all the time, until the dreadful disease impaired my whole system, produced severe neuralgia, general debility, and disfigured my nose, and destroyed my sense of smell. In this condition I placed myself under the proleesional care of Dr. J. A. Jones, at the Battle House, and I have bean rap idly Improving from the first day. I consider his specific treatment the direct means.of saving my life; it is more than a fortune to me. I cheerfully recommend Dr. Jones to the afflicted. ‘ 8. J. Threadoill. M.

I paid him hia price and commenced hia treatment, and immediately commenced improving, and in three weeka waa quite well, could eat well. Bleep well, breathe perfect, and my color ia good.
