Columbus Times: Thursday is the
day set apart for the investigation of the
State vs. Rev. C. A. Kendrick. The
trial will take place at the Court Honse
before three Justices of the Peace. A
large number of witnesses have been
summoned and the case promises to be
warmly contested—Mr. Kendrick de
claring his innocence and the other side
proclaiming his guilt. It is by far the
largest case, involving more inquiry and
creatiug more excitement than any ease
ever before in Columbus, aud we might
say iu Georgia.
Savannah Retvs : Avery popular gen
tleman, while out ridiug yesterday with
his wife, iu the kindness of bis heart let
his horse stop to drink at the branch
which crosses the new Skidaway ferry
road, and the auimal not only drank of
the water but laid down in it and pre
pared for a comfortable roll over, re
gardless of the buggy and its ocoupants.
It required some pulling to get him np,
which, however, was accomplished with
only slight damage to the harness and
none to the buggy. The gentleman, we
think, will not again allow that animal
to quench his thirst when he is on the
road.

Griifiu News £jctra, 24th : About 1
o'clock, a. in., last night the alarm of
firm was sounded, ami a small wooden
building, situated on Meriwether street,
and occupied by Tom Cooper, was dis
covered to be on fire. The building was
soon oonsumed, aud the flames spread
ing rapidly soon attacked the adjacent
buildings, consisting of another store
house and two blacksmith shops, then
crossing the narrow street quickly burn
ed the large wooden store room of Dig-
In- & Shannon, where the flames were
dually controlled. The water supply of
our city being coufiued to a narrow com
pass, the fire last night would have went
by default if steamer No. 1 had not, by
great exertion, got a stream from the
cistern opposite King's, on Taylor street
This timely supply saved several build
ings, including Col. W. T. Trammell’s
handsome residence. At this writing
no estimate of the loss can be made.
Cooper’s stock was small, and we learn
he had some insurance. Digby k Shan
non saved some stock, and are beyond
doubt the heaviest losers. We did uot
learn if their loss would be covered.

Where, where will be the birds that sing
A hundred years to come ?
The flowers that now in beauty spring,
A hundred yeais to come ?

The hearts that beat so gayly now ?

Joy’s pleasant smiles, and sorrow's sigh,
A hundred years to come ?
Who’ll press for gold this crowded street,
A hundred years to come ?
Who tread yon church with willing feet,
A hundred years to come ?
Pale trembling age, and fiery youth.
Aid childhood with Its brow ot truth—
The rich, the poor, ou land and sea ;
A hundred years to come ?
We all within our graves will sleep,
A hundred years to come,
ho living soul for us will weep
A hundred years to come.
But other men our lands wifi till.
And other men our streets will fill,
While other birds will sing as gay;
As bright the sunshine as to-day,
A hundred years to come.
THE McDKVITT CASE.
What the Edgefleld Advertiser Says.
The last number of the EJgefield Ad
vertiser contains the following article in
reference to the McDevitt case:
“ As will be seen by a piece in another
column, copied from the Constitution
alist ot Friday last, William McDevitt,
a younger brother of our County Treas
urer, is alleged to have stolen a horse iu
Augusta. After having escaped the Au
gusta police, as is there narrated, McDe
vitt made his way to his brother’s house
in this place. Friday afternoon two po
licemen from Augusta arrived among
us, and applied to Trial Justice John L.
Addison for a warrant to arrest McDe
vitt. Mr. Addison issued a warrant for
grand laroeny, and authorized thepolice
rnen, if they deemed it necessary, to
summon a posse lor their assistance.
Mr. Ben Covar was deputized by the
sheriff to attend them ; and they sum
moned Mr. Wm. Burnett as posse. Pro
ceeding to McDevitt’s house at daylight
ou Saturday morning, the policemen
placed Covar and Burnett in rear of the
house, while they advanced to the front
door and knocked. Hereupon the ac
cused man ran out of the back door and
through the back garden. Burnett
halted him and he turned and fled in an
other direction. Burnett then fired at
him, wounding him very slightly. He
continued to run but was overtaken by
the police, arrested and lodged in jail.
On Sunday application for writ of
habeas corpus was made by General
Gary, attorney for McDevitt, to Trial
Justices Addison and Ramey. These
two officials refused; upon the ground
that the offense was not a bailable one
in this State; and further, that they had
been notified that a requisition from
Georgia for the prisoner would soon be
forthcoming.
Trial Justices Addison and Ramey
having declined to aet, Justices John A.
Barker and D. C. Tompkins were sum
moned ; and on Monday afternoon the
case was heard before them. The State
was unrepresented. Mr. Addison, be
ing retained by the policemen, objected
to the juristictiou of the two Justices
upon the ground that it was not a bail
able offense in this State—and that Geor
gia should have time to claim the law
breaker. General Gary made a long and
ingenious speech, claiming that the of
fense was uot larceny, but a simple tres
pass. The Justices declined to grant
bail, being convinced that so long as the
Solicitor of the Circuit had not received
the four days notice due him by law,
they had no jurisdiction.
McDevitt was returned to jail, and
simultaneously a messenger was dis
patched to Columbia to notify Solicitor
Runkle. This messenger returned on
Tuesday morning, bringing baek a noti
fication that Solicitor Runkle waived his
right to appear. This removed the
scruples of the Trial Justices, and at 11
o’olock, a. m., in the Clerk’s office, the
prisoner was discharged—without bail
—upon the ground that he was unlaw
fully imprisoned, and that his offense
was tresspass instead of grand larceny.
In common with our whole communi
ty, we regret the upshot of this matter
exceedingly. It would have been better
for both States had this young man been
sent back to Georgia and to the peniten
tiary, in which he has already served
one term.
ON ICE.
Two Augimtft Shad Cross the Atlantic Ocean.
Some weeks since Mr. T. J. Jennings,
of this city, concluded to make the ex
periment of sending a couple of shad to
to a friend in Liverpool. Procuring two
fine, fresh fish from the waters of the Sa
vannah, he carried them out to the Au
gusta Ice Company’s works and had them
frozen into the heart of a large block of
ioe. Thus encased they were placed in
a box and forwarded to Liverpool. Yes
terday Mr. Jenningß received a letter
from his friend, acknowledging the re
ceipt of the fish. He says :
“The shad has fetched me and no
mistake. It arrived nearly a week ago.
My wife was in London at the time, bat
was to return on Saturday, so after ex
amining it and finding that it was in
perfect, condition, I nailed the box up
and left it in the cellar to keep till Mon
day, when she would be at home. I
wanted to show it in our Exchange News
Room as a cariosity, but it was too big,
and, besides, the ice was quite white
and almost opaque, so that the fish coaid
not be seen through it. Of course, we
had a regular fat dinner party, and it
embraced quite a number of nationali
i ties. We had an American—a tobacco
j chewing man from Kentucky—a Qer
: man, a Frenchman, a Greek, a Scotch
man, a Welshman, an Englishman. We
j had to cook both the fishes, and the
fragments that were taken up certainly
I did not fill seven baskets, for yon never
saw a lot of men eat fish with better ap
petite. It was ia mo'st splendid condi-
I tion, and tasted as if it had just come
ont of the water. We drank your health
in a bumper of champagne—the yonng
Dempsters joining in—and were only
sorry that yon weren’t there to make a
speech, or sing a song, or tell a good
story, in reply. It was, indeed, a per
fect success in every way, and the wife
desires me to send yon her very best re
gards, and to say that she never had
such a fish upon her table. It melted
in the month.”
A HEAVY FAILURE.

Moktoombby, Ala.—The banking

MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISE.
A Branch of the Patapsco Guano Works to
Be Established Near This City.
Some time since we stated that the
Patapsco Guano Company, of Baltimore,
of which General M. A. Stovall, of this
city, is resident manager, had decided
to establish a branch of the works on its
premises, on Booth Boundary street,
just outside the city limits. The ar
rangements have all been perfected, and
the work of putting up the necessary
buildings will be commenced in a few
days, under the superintendence of Mr.
A. M. Macmurpby, an experienced
architect. We learn that the works, in
cluding the aeid vat, will cost fully one
hundred thousand dollars. When the
works are completed the guano sold in
this section by the company will all be
manufactured here. The crude guano
will be brought from the islands direct
to Port Royal in bulk, and there trans
ferred to the freight cars of the Port
Royal Railroad and conveyed to the
works, a branch track from the railroad
running into the company’s premises for
that purpose. The bones need in the
preparation of the fertilizers will be
purchased in this section, along the line
of the different railways. The works
will give employment to a number of
people and bring anDnally a large
amount of money to the city— a con
siderable portion of which will be ex
pended here.
Ax Ounce of Prevention. —We learn
that some months since a negro man
came to this connty from Savannah,
and soon afterwards became ill with
smallpox. He was living in a house in
the Butler creek section, near the river.
Several others in this house and that
adjoining soon caught the loathsome
disease, until at last eleven in all were
down with it. Fearing that it would
spread in the connty, Jndge Snead, of
the County Court, very properly had
the two houses cut off from all commu
nicatioß with the outfir world, by plac
ing a gu&ri} over them. The services of
a physician were secured and regular vis
its paid by him to the patients. A num
ber of people living in that section were
vaccinated by the same physician.
Every precaution was taken to keep the
disease where it first started, and these
efforts were perfectly successful. Two of
the parties attacked died. The others
have all either entirely recovered or are
oonvalesent Those in one of the houses
having all been eared, their clothing
was destroyed by fire, and new garments
famished them, and the house fumigat
ed and whitewashed.
Great credit is due to Jndge Snead
for the manner in which he haa acted in
the premises.

[Special Dispatch to Chronicle and Sentinel 1
Columbus, Ga., April 27.—The ex
amination of Rev. C. A. Kenrick,
charged with the .seduction of Fannie
Bash, a thirteen year old girl, and the
daughter of a respectable grocery mer
chant of this city, commenced tc-day at
the Coart House before three Justices
of the Peace. The accused wears a bold
front. The evidence shows that the
fact of the girl's going often to Ken
rick’s study in the church building
cansed watching. On April 16th, in the
evening, she was seen to go there and
he followed her. Two yonng men, John
McCleod and Vandenburg, proceeded
there, and by opening the blind slats
opening out from the study detected them
and let them know it. Kenrick was
fonnd directly after in the audience
chamber up stairs, while the girl re
mained locked in the study until dark,
when she escaped through a window.
Kenrick denied that any woman had
been in the building. The girl herself
testified to-day that Kenrick seduced
her some months ago in his study, and
that she had been goiDg there two
or three times a week since to see him.
He first commenced talking to her about
joining the church, and then came im
proper familiarities, temptation and
ruin. She loved him and he said he lov
ed her. He gave her presents, and told
her to tell falsehoods about their rela
tions. Dr. Terry testified that Kenrick
had gotten of him some time since a
certain medical prescription under the
plea that a relative in North Carolina
was in ill health and desired to have it
and that he also borrowed a medical
book on the subject. Other evidence
of a similar character was introduced.
The investigation will be continued to
morrow, and probably Saturday. The
defense has fifty-four witnesses. If
Kenrick cannot' prove an alibi, his en
deavor will be to establish that his crime
is adultery instead of seduction.
He Is Bouud Over for .Seduction and Fails
to Give Bond.
[Special Dispatch to Chronicle and Sentinel, i
Columbus, Ga., April 28. —The trial
of Rev. C A. Kendrick was continued
to-day. The evidence for the prosecu
tion was mainly corroborative of that
adduced yesterday and regarding the
number of times the girl visited Kend
rick’s study, which was two or three
tin.es a week for the last two months.
The defense offered no testimony, al
leging that the State had not proved
seduction. Judge James Johnson and
others, for the defense, argued that the
case was not seduction, but adnltery or
fornication, if anything. The three
justices required the accused to give a
bond of $3,000 for his appearance at
the Superior Court or go to jail. He is
in prison. He cannot give the bond
here. The bond was made low because
of the plea that the accused was a poor
man.

Spices continue yerv dull. At the Stook Ex
change consols have been excited with numer

closing of the accounts of four bankrupt
brokers, occasioned a serious decline in some
stocks. The traffic returns were almost all very
disappointing and the week's operations Bhow
a general and important fall. Canadian issues

WEEKLY REVIEW,
New Yobx, April 29.—Daring the week at
the Cotton Exchange, prioes on spot have de
dined }to 7-16. This was caused by a weak
nuiket in Liverpool, a decline in gold and-ex
onange, dullness of trade and pressure of
stock delivered. On May notioes there has
also been a natural sympathy with depression
in futures, which show a very marked deoline
for the week, Some slight recovery was for a
short time established on several days by the
activity of the bears in covering their con
tracts. Cotton doses dull and still more or
less depressed, the influences being felt tre in
the main against the maiket.
