One CRIME PREVENTED BY ANOTHER.
The Lafayette (Ia.) Courier of November
23d says:
And old and substantial farmer of this
county, named David Jones, recently be-
came enamored of a young woman, the
wife Of a nejghbor named Cantwell, and
Notwithstanding the remonstrances of his
friends, determined to e!ope with her.
Accordingly, Oh Sunday evening, the l lth
ut., he told his wife of his intention, and
that he was going to meet the woman at
a certain place, about a mile from his
residence, whence they intended to elope.
His wife endeavored to dissuade him,
saying that she feared it was only plot
to get him from home with his money
and rob him; but he persisted, and about
10 o'clock mounted his horse and started
On the following morning he was mis-
sing, (although Mrs. Cantwell still re-
mained at home, land some were of opinion
that he had gone off alone; but traces of
blood found near the place Of assignation
aroused the suspicion liz the minds of his
neighbors that he had been foully dealt
with, and a search was made for him.
He was soon found, shot through the
heart with rifle ball, and robbed. The
husband whom he attempted to inJure
has been arrested on suspicion,

A PsYCHoLoGICAL FACT-Raspail. the
French Socialist, has pointed out, the
Medical Journal says, one of the powers
of carnphor, which, in psychological
point of view, is most important-thato OF
putting stop to that fearful insomnolence
which accompanies the incubation and
first development of insanity; when OPT
um, pysocyacmus, connum, stramonlum,
and call the drowsy syrups Of the East
fail to produce an effect, grain of cam
phor formed into pill, and followed by
draught of an ounce and half OF the
infusion of hops, mixed with FIVE drops
of sulphuric ether, is his usual remedy Tor
procuring sleep.

AWFUL Accidental laborer by the
name OF keaung, employed OH the Lack
awana division of the Pennsylvania Coal
Company's railroad, was killed last week
in an awful manner They had pre-.
pared a sand blast which was about to
be fired Heating stood over the aperture
while his comrade held a coal near by
a spark from which is supposed to have
fallen into issure communicating with
the blast, which instantly exploded,
throwing keating into an adjacent piece
of woods; the other man was untouched
A search was made for the body, which
was tracked by the drops of blood; a
short distance in the woods his heart
was found, a0arm and 1ChOle,' and not far
from it his head, and in briary copse his
mutilated trunk. The whole amount of
the powder was said to have been but
two pounds, yet This sufficed to send the
unfortunate man high in the air, and
distance of two hundred feet to one side

INCIDENTS OF TIE MURDER.-At nine
clock on Saturday evening, crowd OF
about one hundred persons assembled IN
front of the Medical College, and COM
menced singing"Old Hundred, and never
did the words, ''Be Thou, o God, exalted
high" fall with such a solemn accent
upon the evening air, echoed by choir
of voices, such as have seldom been heard
in unison. The moon shone brightly up
on the molly group of chorlsters, and a
number of policemen and watchmen near
by, and rendered it a rare and painfully
solemn scene The spontaneous acknowl-
edoement of the hand of the Deity IN
bringing to lightth foul deed which had
been committed in the sombre looking
building, before the doors OF which they
stood. was subject worth OF painter

BATTLE OF GooJERAT-BedattleS OF
War.-No attempt was made at rallying,
the rout was complete, and long will the
Sikhs have cause to remember the battle
of Goojerat. The whole of their fight
was strewed with the dead. We advanc-
ed into their camps, over heaps of dead
and dying. 1t wanted nothing more TO
show the gallant stand they had made
Every thing was in confusion-tumbrils
overturned, guns dismounted, wagons
with their wheels off, oxen and camels
rushing wildly about, wounded horses
plungng in their agony; beds, yblankqts,
boxes, ammunition strewed about Gae
ground in a perfect chaos; the wounded
lying there groaning-some begging To
be despatched, others praying for mercy,
and some, with scowllng looks of impo-
tant rage, striving to cut down those who
came near them, and thereby nsuring
their own destruction-for but little quar-
ter. am ashamed to say, was given; and
even those we managed to save from the
vengeance of our men were, | fear, killed
aiterward. But, after all, it is a war of
determination. The most heart.rending
sight of the day was one | witnessed in
a tent entered. There, on the ground,
bleedlng to death, lay a young mother
Her leg had been carried off by round
shot, and the Jagged stump protruded
through the mangled flesh. She held a
bady TO her breast, and, as she bent over
1t, with maternal anxiety all her thoughts
seemed to be of her child. She appeared
totally regardless of the agony she must
have been suffering, and to think of no.
thing but the poor infant, which was
drawing its nourishment from her failing
breast. | gave her some water, and she |
drank it greedily, raising her large i'm |

slon that was heart-rending to witness

and go on with the regiment; but re-
of that sight will live with |

THE DEBT OF ALABAMA-The report of F. s.
Lyons, Bank Commissioners, was laid before the
Legislature of Alabama on the 18TH ult. From
this document it appears that the foreign debt
created to establish the State Bank and branches
amounted. two years ago, to $9,l7O,555 So. Since
that time the interest has been punctualy paid,
and the principal of the debt has been reduced to
about SIS 6O0, 900. Besides this, there now in
the hands OF the Commissioner about $50O,0OO
of specie funds, to be applied in reduction,
and the prospect Of further reduction Of 5 ,O0O-
900 out of the funds of the Bank. The collections
actually made from the Bank assets since Feb
ruary, 1916, have amounted to over Ss5,0O0,On0
in cash. Mr.. Lyons is highly complimented by
the press of his State for the ability he has dis
nlaved as commissioner. y

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE
TREAsURY-A Washington letter to the
n. Y. Tribune says:
Mr. Meredith in his report, has devoted
a very large space to the iron and coal
interest of the country. He covers some
twenty-five or thirty pages of manuscript
with this branch of his report alone, and
has accumulated vast amount OF statis-
tical ana other information in support Of
extending increased and adequate protec-
ton toward these two industrial branches.
He demonstrates the absolute necessity
for specific over ad valorem duties III at
fording that protection, and also shows
that the tariff -or duties upon both iron
and coal must he materially enhanced to
prevent these immense interests being en-:
tirely destroyed in connection with the
foreign article under the present scale OF
duties The language of the report Is
easy, and 1 may say beautiful. and will
90 far-very far-toward removing much
of the prejudice that has been gotten up
against the selection of Mr. Meredith over
the Hon. Abbott Lawrence.

DREADFTI. SCENE AT AN ExECUTIoN-A Rocking
iam (N.C.) correspondent of the Fayetteville OBJ
;erver gives the following scene at the execution of
man named Robert lIildreth, at that place on
he I'd ult:
The axe glitters, the trap door falls and Hldreth
swings by the neck For half minute he
mains motonless. Is he dead? Can his own
weight without falling one inch, have broken his
neck? No! Poor fellow he expected one panq
and that his last. But the fatality which often
eads sherffs to gross negligence in executing the
must cost him now world OF woe. With Il
convusve effort he gains the platform, and stands
again on earth alive. The cap has fallen from
his face. The blood was already fast rushing up
wards. But his large and muscular neck preven-
ted the rope from tightening Even then his
meekness did not leave him He spoke, without
complaint in clear voice, that was heard with
awe by every ear: 'Come here and hx this rope. 1t
wont choke me to death!'
The sheriff did go to him. First, with an axe,
then with piece Of scantng, he endeavored to
knock away the board. At last he pushed Hill
dreths S feet from he scaffold, and hung him inef
ciently second time. The poor fellow made no
further effort to recover himself. Finding that be
was hung in way which produced the most ex-
cruoiating, because gradual sutfbcaton--wth
the hood slowly collecting in his brain through a
circulation only partially impeded-the unfortunate
man, compelled by the pangs which momentarlly
grew greater, drew up his legs as high as possible,
then with all his force, threw them down To tighten
the cord There several times, at intervals of a
minute he did the same again. Then his strug-
yes ceased-his own executoner, he becomes un-
conscious of pain.
The scene at Rockingham, or something equally
shocking disgusting, and abominabe, is OF frequent
occur ence: 1t is witnessed, almost without excep
ton, wherever capital punishment. is inflicted in
North Carolina.

SUSPENSION BRIDGE MILL.-The Lock
port Courier says that Msssrs. Olmstead,
De Veaux and Tracy, have erected a
houringmill the present season, on the
Niagara river. at the eastern termination
of the Suspension bridge. 1t is designed
for four run of stone-.wo of which are
now in operation. The establishment is
n novelty. ~~, '-----;-i---------- . r=--.-

be found in the country round about
The mill is placed upon the bank OF the
river at a perpendicular elevation OF two
hundred and fifty feet above the water
which propels it. The river at this point
commences a rapid descent, and by con-
structing race bat a few rods in length,
a fall of some nine feet is obtained The
wa.er-wh heel is placed at the lower end Of
this race, aud the mighty Niagara consti-
tutes the lniil-pond. A cast-iron shalt.

grees-connects the water-Wheel With
the machinery it propelS. The building
is of stone, thirty-siX by forty-slX feet,
three stories high, and is built III the most
substantial manner.
The design of the mill, and the arrange
ment of the machinery, is the work of Mr..
Tracy. The mill being designed for GUS
tom grinding, no effort or expense has been
| spared to render it model in its way
To accomplish this the bolts have been
made double the ordinary length; and as
proof of the superiority of this plan, the
proprietors warrant forty-two pounds O.
-four to sixty pounds of wheat, after de
Quoting toll We repeat that the estab
lishment is a novelty in design, location
and finish, and promises to promote
greatly the public convenience, while L
yields a liberal reward to its enterprislng
proprietors.

Mr.. CLAY AND THE CRISIS.

] Mr.. CLAY AND THE ECR1sIs-"Potomac. u
the able correspondent of the Baltimore
Patriot, thus eloquently discourses upon
the mediatorial position in which Mr.
Clay will be placed, when the crisis,
which politicians are looking for, arrives:
"There is one great leader in Congress,
upon whom all eau rally as their guide in
the great crisis which is inevitably ap-
preaching with rapid strides, on the
slavery question in the District of Colum-
hia. The master spiri. of one storm,
Which rocked the Union to It's centre
that noble paciticator on the Missouri

country Oh the Modification question,
now stands proudly erect, with the
strength, physical as well as mental, and
with the will TO do all that it will be
vouchsafed to him by an al-wise Pro-
vldence to do, in the matter of allaying
the coming storm, by counselling and
lmporng the people of one section of
the Union to act like brothers, i'm the
same great Republican family, towards
their brethren of tue opposite section, aud

mlttlng the excitement, already up to an
unhealthy pitch, to go one joint or title

rience, aud his head is full of Republican
wisdom His days of ambition, except
to serve his beloved country in an i'm
pWtant crisis may be considerad as past.
Can not. will not the men of the South,
then, rally around him aud adopt him as
their Mentor, upon the veXed question
whlch is threatening to bring days of trib-
u.ation and mourning upon this fair land
VIII he be unjust towards the South!
Will he concede too much to the North!
Will he not, rather, deal Justly and fairly
towards both sections, and pursue that
course which will oe best calculated to
preserve the Union! If Henry Clay can
not be trusted in this great matter, who
can! If he cannot prevail upon his coun-
trymen to bear and forbear, one section
toward another, for the common good
and preservation and perpetuity of our
common Union, then were Washington
himself TO rise from his grave and implore
them to live and act together like brethren,
the solemn warning of the Father of his
Country would have no effect upon their
stony hearts and their premeditated re-
solves to rend the l1ninn asunder.'

The persecution Of the Mormons, who
were driven by violence, and with
every aggravation of cruel outrage, from
their city Of Nauvoo, by the citizens of
the Freesoil State of Illinois. is familiar
TO every one.
1t was one Of the first fruits offreesoil
--and from a personal sojourn for a
short time among that people, in that
city, we know that the sad story of their
wrongs, and the brutality practised to-
wards them--eyen their women and
children-haye never yet been fully and
