New York, March 29.—A most remark able case of fasting is that of an Italian laborer of Mulberry street, now at the charity hospital. He was taken there suf fering with dementia, due to meningitis. For twenty-two days ho totally abstained from eating. He was out of his mind dur ing the whole period, and violent at times. He clinched his teeth, and for more than three weeks refused to relax his jaws, and it was impossible to put nourishment into his mouth. The physicians attending him thought of pulling out his front teeth and pumping food into his stomach with a stomach pump. Finally they supplied his system with nourishment by injecting beef tea. He lingered from day to day, gradually losing flesh. At the end of his twenty-two days’ abstinence from eating he rose from his cot at noon, walked to the dinner-table, took a knife and fork, and sat down. He, ate three beefsteaks, four rations of pota toes, two bowls of soup, one loaf of bread, and six apple' dumplings. He ro-e and talked rationally with a nurse, who hail run in great alarm to the table. The Ital ian was sane for the first time in two months. He has eaten heartily since and is pronounced recovered. He was seen at the hospital yesterday, and was doing well. Against Hiring Convict kabor. Washington, March 28.—At a meeting of the House Committee on labor, to-day, Rep resentative James was unanimously in structed to favorably report a bill providihg that it shall be unlawful for any person in the employ of the United States or any State, to contract with any one to hire out the labor of prisoners confined in any pris on or jail, for violation of any laws of the United States. A violation of the act is made a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of from S3OO to SI,OOO or imprisonment for one to three years. Mr. James has pre pared a report to accompany the bill. It says in some cases State prisons take persons convicted for violation of laws of the United States without cost to the Federal Government, and then in order to make the arrangement profitable have inhumanly treated them. The con tract sy-stem, the report says, is wholly adverse to reform. Prisoners are treated as dumb beasts, being driven to work by men whose only aim is to get a certain amount of work from them every day; men who look upon convicts as only- so much machinery for making money, and whose chief recommendation for the position is that they are the highest bidders for the human beings hired by'them.

Cincinnati, March 30.—The indignation of the people over the verdict in the Ber ner murder case, which developed into the ly-nch-law mob and attack on the county jail, was at a fever heat last night and Ham ilton County’s costly and magnificent Court house was fired and almost entirely con sumed. It was a bloody night. Over one hundred people were killed and wounded. Yesterday morning groups gathered upon every street corner, and the mutterings of the crowd were continuous. With the first glimpse of morn the curious crowd began assembling in the vicinity of the Court-house and jail, called from their beds at this unusual hour by the almost ceaseless firing of musketry the night be fore. Long before noon all had become aware of the carnage of the night. Hand bills were flung in the faces of the many-, urging the citizens to organize at once, and make one clean sweep of the bloody business while they were at it. “Heal sores by purifying the body,” was the motto displayed, the cry being that public safety demanded immediate action. This call for the vigilants still further inflamed the minds of the masses, and looking upon the wreck and ruin, the blood stains and bullet sears visible everywhere about the jail and its surroundings, their mutterings were augmented to open threats; even the more peaceful elements of the community so far forgetting the majesty of the law as to lend countenance to evidently to-be-re newed riots. So dark was the outlook that the building of barricades was immediately began in the jail, the Gatling gun, afterwards to be used with such deadly effect, wheeled into place, the militia, five hundred strong, ensconsed within the hugestone edifice., and platoons of police stationed at the head of every street, giving access to the county buildings. Dusk -Had hardly set-in when the masses began to assemble and threaten the structure in which was lodged the ob jects of their vengeance. Beyond the cus tomary hum of voices and an occasional shout of some chance drunkard in the crowd, nothing was at first to lie heard from the obstinate and determined mob. Lights be gan to flicker in the adjacent byways and the buildings were illuminated for squares around, anxious and expect ant watchers being stationed at every win dow. About the jail, however, all wr-s darkness, the streevt lamps even having been extinguished, and grim in its solitude it stood threatening, like a mighty fortress on a rock. The gloom of night being now fairly upon them, the rioters hustled into action, though with the same seemingly aimless purpose as upon the preceding evening. There was no organization in the crowd. It was a rabble,and a dozen compact soldiers or policemen could have made them run like sheep. A big, heavy-featured, respect ably-dressed German essayed to be leader. He had a club in his hand. “Boys.” he shouted, “follow me: let’s go around to the jail yard gate and burst it open, and take out the !” A veil arose, and fifty men and boys fell, into a rough line About one-third of them carried broom handles, clubs, axes, rakes and hammers. They went around North Court street, the crowd surging behind them. They were met by a volley from the soldiery. Pell-mell the mob rushed back, heads low, and brandish ing wildly their weapons. Two or three were seen to stumble. The militia did not pursue the mob, but were evidently content with preventing an onslaught ou the jail. The remarks of Hie crowd were signifi cant. Berner’s attorney, Tom Campbell, and the jury were damned by everybody. Berner had several apologists. Of course, they argued, he could not be blamed for trying to save his neck from the gallows, although he deserved to be hanged and quartered. “But that Tom Campbell, who ‘fixed’ the jury; and Shaw, who got a thou sand dollars, he ought to have red-hot lead poured down his throat!’’ Me.n swore by awful round oaths that if they could catch Tom Campbell and the jury they would hang them sky-high. A few scattering militiamen, upon whom all seemed to wreak revenge for the carnage of the early morn in wLioh a number were killed and wouuded, now ap- j peared in the throng, intent upon joining tlieir comrades in the Court-hou.-e rotund t. “Kill them 1 kill them!” was heard upon every side, while stones aud missiles of ! every description flew over and about them, ! crashing through windows, battering down j doors and causing other destruction. By a miracle these stragglers es- ' caped, but their assailants, thus I encouraged, pressed upon the long line of police, to whose protection the militiamen * owed their lives, and continuing the fusi- ! lade of stones, the windows of the Treasu- i rer’s office were demolished and the rioting j began in earnest. The patrolmen, as a j warning, discharged a volley of blank cartridges from tlieir navy sixes, and the i crowd lor an instant wavered, some of the more timid even taking to flight, but the leaders again pressed on, when another 1 volley was given them. Confusion now reigned supreme. The sounding bells soon announced the burning ot the Treasurer’s office and all the records, in attempt ing to save which Capt. John J. Desmond, of Company B, First Regiment O. N. G., was sho* through the head and instantly killed. Other victims were soon added to the list. The gatiling i gun with death-dealing force was shortly i turned upon the crowd, and the fighting ! from that on became no longer a contest j for the prisoners in the jail, but a general warfare upon the militia. At midnight the dead and dying were thick about the Court- i house square, which building being in flames it is thought will be totally de stroyed. The Fire Department being sent for refused to n spond, and guards were sent to them in answer to their telephone demand for aid. At Engine-house No. 4, steam engines Nos. 3 and 4 were then wait ing for an escort of iroops. A number of the leaders of the rioters were arrested, carried into the jail and locked up. They were all nice-appearing fellows and well dressed. Another of tiie rioters being wounded was taken within the jail, a smoking revolver still in his blood-stained hands. Officers Kennedy and Lieutenant Tom Meara at one time rushed into the assaulting crowd and ar rested John Bkinner, Fut Fizzer and another man, who appeared to be a leader, and all were placed behind the bars immediately. At "a few minutes past 12 o’clock the Fourteenth Regiment of militia was or dered to file out into the open square facing the Ceurt-house aud charge with fixed b&y- onets npon the crowd, and disperse them at all hazards. By 11 o’clock the mob had succeeded in setting the interior of the Sheriff’s offic e on fire, and, defending the approach to its confines in the lower portion of the Court house proper, the entire building was soon iu flames. It was while leading a detach ment of men into this apartment from the rotunda that. Captain Desmond and Private McGuire were killed. Lieutenant of Police Devine and Recorder Hill still pushed on despite the shower of bullets from the attacking party without, but all efforts to save the records proved lutilo. From here the conflagration spread rapidly, and the huge stone edifice was lev midnight wrapped in towering sheets of flames and smoke. At half-past 12 the Surveyor’s office on the South Court street side was completely d-molished and the fire was then ranging in the third floor of the' building. ine heavens for miles around were brilliantly illuminated, great masses of sparks now and then shooting upward as block alter block of stone, and massive beams of oak fell into the all-de vouring element. At 1 o’clock all thought or hope of checking the fire had been aband oned, and before the day dawns the great stone structure, so long an ornament to our city, will be a mass of ruins. A telephonic message reoeived irotn Col onel Hill, at the Court-house, at an early hour this morning, states that despite all efforts the public records can not be saved, and will all be consumed by the devouring flames. A rumor also gamed circulation that over one hundred men were in the third floor of the Court-house in imminent danger of being consumed by the devasta ting element. The Court-house is all gone except the Superior Court cousulta ion room, so far as can be seen from Main street. The Fourteenth Ohio National Guards ar rived upon the ground at half-past 12 o’clock, and deploying oh Main street, fired westward on Court. The first volley killed five people and wounded many more. Just the result of the succeeding volleys, fired at longer and longer range, as the mob fell back and scattered, it couid not be determined, but as the fire was delivered with precision, there must have been many more casualities. The net result was that at 1 o’clock the military and police were in at least tem porary possession of the battle-field, and the firemen were permitted to go to work unmolested on what was left of the burn ing Court-house. There were several mili tiamen hurt but- none killed outright in tnis battle. At 1:1a a. m., the situation growing more serious, Governor Hoadly r ordered the Fourth Regiment, which was t bivouacked at the C., H. & D. Depot, to march from the depot out Fourth street to Sycamore, and charge the mob in the rear. About a quarter of three o’clock the re port reached Hammond Street Station that about three hundred men were on their way to Kittredge’s and Powell’s gun stores, on Main street, with two cannon that they had captured at Music Hall. There were pos sibly twenty men hauiing the guns. Lieu tenant John Burke left the station-house with a small squad of men, and' marching »tp to the crowd scattered them with a few 1 :G1 directed pistoljsnots, ami then pulled i ae cannon up Main and handed thtm over to the militia. A gentleman, a stranger in the city, pre vented a massacre, on Ninth street last night \yhen a company of militia filed from behind, a barricade. The military came out a short distance, then presented arms, and he heard the click of triggers. He en tered an etiergesic protest against their firing on the crowd, which could he seen down Ninth street, and induced the Cap tain in command to. go a short distance with hint and look at .the crowd. He con vinced the officer that they were all inno cent persons; that.there was no mob there, and the officer was very thankful that he had been prevented from such a deed. It was a stranger company. Burdsal’s drug store, on Main street, near Court street, at two' o’clock this morning had been turned into a for wounded soldiers. Among tlmse there were Lieutenant-Colonel Wm. Nk Leggett, of the Fourteenth Regiment, Columbus, Ohio, slightly, wounded. Sergeant Mike Malone, Company B, First Regiiuent xCin cinnati, Ohio, flesh wounds. Captain Slack, Fourteenth Regiment, Company F, Columbus, Ohio, wounded in the right hand. FirstJSergeant Amil, Company <F, Four teenth Regiment, Columbus, wounded in the right hand and three Slight wounds in tiie head anAegs. Private W. H. Schovey, Company F, Fourteenth Regiment, Colum busmwounded in hip and leg—not seriously —aim Private J. H. Kelly, Company F, FouMeenth Regiment, Columbus, Ohio, three slight leg wounds. Among the casualty s of the citizens were the following: Three men were carried to tiie drug-store at the north-west of corner Court and Walnut. Philip Harman, a yourg man, was shot in the groin, and it is thougnt fatally. D. Gluicklicb was shot in the ankle, not seriously. An unknown man, probably twenty-five y'ears old, re ceived a mortal wound in the neck. Two more wounded men were found in a doc tor’s- office on the north side of Ninth. Edward Relnn was shot through the calf of his leg, making a painful but not serious wound. Juun Proth, a boy not eigditeen years of age received a gaping w'ound in his shoulder, which will probably result in the loss of his arm. At a saloon on Ninth street, beyond Main, were found several dead and wound ed. Edward Wise was shot through the foot. George Kolp was Radiy wounded in the right leg below the knee. The bone was shattered. At this place there were also seen two dead inen y horn no one could identify. Philip Raabe, shot above the heart; sup posed to be fatally injured.

George Lehr, is seriously cut on the ciieek below the left eye. Ills wound was made by a soldier’s bayonet. ASSAULT ON A GUN STORE. During the evening a small portion of the crowd detached itself from the main body and moved south on Main street, and, stopping in front of Rowell’s gun store, which is on that thoroughfare between Fourth and Filth, they made preparations to force an entrance. Private watchman John Connelly faced the men and said: “Don’t smash in the windows. If you will enter, do so decently.” They acted on the suggestion and started forward. There was an unexpected report of a pistol—some one said it came front the the inside of the store—and the foremost man fell. A second shot, and another went down. Hesi tating for a moment, another advance was made, more shots were heard, until five men, all told were lying on the ground, two of whom were dead, and three wounded. The dead were John Dugan. One bullet had entered the lett eye and another the center of the head at the side. Thomas A. Green, dead, with a wound in the left breast. The wounded were: Joseph Wise, left side; Charles Eberhart, right leg; Ben Herzogg, right knee; William McHugh, right thigh, Michael Mack, left arm: amputation neces sary. The crowd alter this contented itself with igniting some barrels and rolling them against Powell’s store, where they burned without doing the building any dantagp. An alarm was sent in for this reason front box 24, but the engines were not used. BERNER IN THE PENITENTIARY. Columbus. March Berner, the Cin nati murderer, who escaped the officers at Loveland, was recaptured by Criminal Bailiff Joe Moses and several other officers near Montgomery, 0., and, after a some what exciting experience, was landed safe in the Ohio Penitentiary about 8 o’clock last evening. Cincinnati, March 31. —All day yester day the streets in the vicinity of the Court house were thronged with people viewing the ruins of the building. AH the streets that lead up to the Court-house and jail, the alleys that lead into them, and the bridges, were all protected by barricades, behind which the militia stood all day, their musket barrels pointing over the tops. In front of these barricades the police kept tin open space of a hundred feet or inCre,- so that the five or six blocks im mediately around the Court-house was entirely ’ clear. The people that were out in the afternoon were mostly a throng of curious sight-seers, and only oc casionally did the police have any trouble, when some fellow who had been drinking began to talk loudly and bitterly against the militia and crying for blood. Tue police took these fellows in and carried them off to cells in the jail. Several of these raids were made into the mob, and once or twice the mob made a rush after the police, wnieh'however was quickly checked by the men behind the barricades, who leveled their guns and called a halt, after which they cleared out the street, and the cross streets to the side ot the barricade, in both directions; and men, women and children, in their best clothes as if for a holiday on the street, rushed pell mell out of range. Some gradually came back again; others went home, fresh sight-seers taking their plaoes. The scene at the was appal ling, and viewed from West Court street a full sense of the terrible work of the mob of Saturday night was at once apparent. The front, with - its thick wall and massive pillars,. stood intacts but everything but the walls was in ruins. Of course the windows were all broken and the wood work burned out of pi ice in the sills; the roof was gone, as were the floors, and up through the windows was the beau tiful blue sky, in such striking contrast to the terrible Utsnlalion all ahout. In front of tiie building are the charred remnants o books and papers, soaked in water, but in many places still smoking. Last night’s battle was opened by the militia on Court street at half-past 8. They had the full sweep of the market space. There were thousands ot people at the cor ners and in front of the market-house, a block distant from the barricade. There was plenty of loud talkiug. All around men were cursing their luck at not being able to procure cahnon. A small portion ot ifie mob made a movement toward the barricade. A volley from the mititia .scattered the crowd pell-mell. One man /was wounded. % After the first general firing of the militia at 8:30 o’clock, things quitted down con siderably, and the opinion was current that th,e worst was over. However, at about half-past ten the press at Court and Walnut again became, as the military tiiougnt, threatening and two shots were heard to ring out upon the air. > These, it is said, were from a pistol in the mob, and the guns of the soldiers made re ply. It was another of those death-deal dealing volleys, the crack of the rifles and the wuiz of the balls, causing even the safely-shtfftered few to shrink at the thought ot tiie horrible slaughter that must ensue. So great was the confusion, how ever, and so dense the crowd that nothing definite could be learned at that time as to the result, some, strange as it may seem, asserting that no one out of the thousands assembled was injured. A summary of the list of killed and wounded, reported at Habig’s morgue and tiie City Hospital up to 2 oielock Sunday morning, shows 24 killed and 39 wounded. Up to 6 o’clock hurt night 5 additional killed and 30 wounded were reported. As many were taken to their homes, the total numnerofdead can not be less than 45, and 125 wounded. The i ioters made i heir last rally- a few min utes after midnight. They ha lat that time become much reduced in numbers, and while still threatening, were less ag gressive. Having stolen about for ty muskets from tbe Turners’ armory in Turner Hall,they fired on the militia at Court and Walnut. Several vol leys were fr ed by the militia, wnich were replied to with some spirit by the rioters. At last,a volley from, the Gattliug gun laid low two or three of. their number, and en tirely cooled their ardor. A few random shots were fired after that hour, but from then till morning compara tive quiet reigned. At military headquarters it is believed that will be no renewal ot ho-tiilties by and that the riot is substan tial! ah end. At 4 a. m., as a citizen was grossing West -Court streer, near the barricade, he wa= called on by the militia to halt, and, not obeying the order, was fired on and wound ed. He was taken away by the Patrol, and his name was not learned. Lieutenant Wright, from within the bar ricades at the county buildings, s mis mes sage at 4 o’clock this morning that all is quiet except for now and then a random shot. Moths ir Carpets. Moths will work in carpets in rooms that are kept warm in winter as well as in the summer. A sure method of removing the pests is to pour strong alum water on the floor to the distance of half a yard around the edges before laying the carpets. Then once or twice dur ian- the season sprinkle dry salt over the ca'rpet before sweeping. Insects do not like salt, aud sufficient adheres to the carpet to prevent their alighting on it. __M. R.

Cailletet has constructed a continuosu apparatus for producing intense cold, which consists of a closed steel cylinder in which is a coil of copper pipe which projects from each end of the cylinder, and one of these communicates w--h tho mercurial piston pump already used by Cailletet, while the other receives the ethylene which has been compressed by the pump and cooled by methyl chloride. By this arrangement he forms a circuit in which the same quantity of con densed ethylene is' repeatedly evapora ted in the copper coil, producing intense cold and then compressed again by the pump being sufficiently cooled with methvl chloride and ready for evapora tion again. This process goes on as long as the sucking and compressing pumps are working. — Compt. Rendus p. 1115. < A Discovery in Relation to Hydropho bia. M. Pasteur yesterday made an inter esting-communication to the Paris Aca demy of Sciences in relation to canine madness. His experiments had shown him that an injection in the region of the skull of the virus of rabies always produced the malady in an acute form, but an injection in'the veins only oc casionally had acute results, being often followed by chronic affection only, without barking or ferocity. If a dog were inoculated with fragments of marrow or of nerve taken from a, mad dog, the disease would be communicated. M. Pasteur further stated that he had rendered twentv dogs proof against tbe disease by inoculating them with other virus than the virus of rabies. Fowls and pigeons injected with the latter be came affected, but soon recovered spon taneously.
