THE U. S. SHIP RARIrAN This beautiful frigate,
recently returned to Pensacola for supplies and
repairs, will again sail for the Gulf squadron dur
ing the present week. The Raritan has been in
commission and absent from the country two and
one half years, most Of the time under tropical
sun, and the crew living nine months of that time
upon salt provisions, except about twenty days;
yet Notwithstanding she has not lost single man
during the time.
BY reason of the long period of salt diet, num-
Der of her crew have been down with the scurvy,
who were brought TO the Pensacola hospital, and
who are now fast recovering A part of the crews
term of service had expired, and are now being
replaced by enlistments at Pensacola.
Our old friend Capt. Gregory continues in COM
mand of the ship, and will never leave her volun-
tarily while there is a chance of fight ahead. In
view of the dare devil service of our gallant friend
during the war of 1872 upon the lakes, we predict
that if fight takes place about the region of that
said Castle, that he is in the thickest of it. As
the Captain was so long connected with this sta
tion We New Workers have an eye to his move
ments, and expect to see him prove the crack
officer in Commodore Corners feet, ,when there
is fight on hand.

The Murder Case in the County. We mem

man charged with the murder Of Il fellow work
man, near Slemmer'S Run, and his committal
to prison. We have since learned the follow
ing additional facts:-A master collier by the
name of Thomas Quigley, was found about the
last of November, burned to death among the
ashes of small shanty which had burned down
during the night, at the Locust Grove Furnace,
on Stemmer's Run, about s m les from the city.
in Baltimore county. A jury of inquest was
summoned, and there being no evidence OF foul
play, the jury returned verdict Of accidental
death. Some friends of the deceased from cir
cumstances which came TO their knowledge,
suspicioned that he had been murdered, and his
body placed in the cabin, which was fred by
the murderer in order to destroy all evidence OF
his guilt. The person who was supposed to
have committed the deed, from circumstances
which it would be useless 10 state, named John
Wesley Flynn, was accordingly arrested on

GovERNoR's SALARY, SC. The retrench-
rnent committee of tho House of Delegates
have made some movements towards reducing
public expenses. 1t is proposed to cut down
tho Governors salary to $4,000, and that of the
Secretary of State to $1,000, at the expiration
Of the term of the present officers 1.-THE Co
vernon be not required to reside at the seat of
government, his salary might be reduced to
$4,000, as he would be at little expense except
ing during the session Of the Legislature. In
respect to Judges, their salaries should be sufii-
Gent to induce gentlemen of competent legal
ledge to accept the office. If the number
can be reduced without injury to the public
interests, it would be preferable to lessening
the salary. But we think that the most expe-
dent measure would be, to refer all subjects
connected with change in the constitution
the abolition of useless Offices, retrenchment
&c. to the consideration of Convention o.
the people, to be called by authority of the LIE
rslature. We cannot perceive the validity Of
the objections which have been urged to thi:
measure. The Convention could be held with
out reference to party dstinctions-but suppo
sing it to be otherwise, the constitution which
might be framed, and the retrenchments which
might be made, would equally benefit or njur'
the whole community, and not the members o
particular party. We would place the com
Pensaton to public officers so moderate, as tt
destroy the disgusting thirst for Office which
now prevails.
