Quite an interest has recently been excl
ted at Camden and Gloucester, N. j., among
the families of Lippincotts, Prices, Flanne-
gans and Borough's in consequence of the
discovery, as they suppose. that they are the
legal heirs of one William Jennings, OF
Acton Place, London, who died ,inlestate in
1913, leaving an immense estate, in consols,
local stocks, annuities, bank deposits, &c.,
valued according TO a statement made by the
British authorities, at $4,000, 900, or $40,-
100000. In addition to which there is an
iron chest deposited with London banking
house, and which has not yet been opened,
said to contain plate, &c., of immense val
ue. The several claimants have united
and empowered Mr.. ]. B. Price, at Philadel-
phia, their agent, who has been in, London
for some months, acting in concert with
able counsel there. Late advices from the
agent state that the British authorities &C.

case. The claimants have organized, AMI

Murder in Baton Rouge Parish.

We learn from the Baton Rouge Adyo-
cate that revolving murder was committed
in tie vicinity Of Stony Point, in the Baton
Roushe Parish, on Friday, the 18th ultimo.
The victim of this cruel tragedy was Miss
May F. Bartel, young lady Of seventeen,
and dpnly daughter Of John Bartel, Jr. Her
body, horribly mutilated with several large
gasfRs in the back part of the head, and
ghasly cuts in the face, was found in Sandy
Creek, about fifty PAGES from where it is
supposed, from the traces, the outrage was
committed. The wounds were apparently
infkted with billet of wood. After cou-
sumhating his purpose, the villain took of
her kpron and fastened it to her neck, and
dragged her to the creek, where she was
found. A negro man and woman, belong
ing b G. F. Spence, arrested on suspicion,
have confessed the crime, and will be put
Immediately to trial.

RAILROAD Location.

AT meeting Of the Directors of the Ma

this city on Wednesday last, the Board de-
cided, that the advantages Of the "Island

were far more weighty than those Of the
"Hill Route, Whereupon resolution was
passed, finally locating the Road on that
Route. Thus has an aggravated question to

New Political Divisions on the Pacific
Coast. ..J H..

The, Cincinnati Enquirer, Of the 18th, says
that q movement has lately been started by
the settlers in that part OF the Oregon Ter
ritory, which lies north of the Columbia NV
er for the organization Of q separate terrific
rial government therein, to be called. the
Columbia Territory The total absence Of
all municipal law. and civil officers; the
great distance from the seat Of the present
government; and many other reasons are
urged in favor Of The proposed measure
The proposition meets with much favor
throughout all Oregon. A Convention has
commenced the decision, and at the session
Of 29th of August, appointed committee
to prepare suitable memorial on the sub
ject 10 Congress.
Previous to the session Of the Convention,
a committee on districts and counties, divi-
ded the territory north of the Columbia
into twelve counties, with well prescribed
boundaries. The Convention is to meet in
May next, to fornaa State Convention, pre-
para.ory to asking admission into the Union
as one Of the States thereof, provided Con-
gress does not previously organize Terrific
rial Government. {"
While thatis going on in Oregon, strong
effort is being made in California, to have
the southern portion of that State organized
into separate territory. We lean from
private source that the election Of a United
States Senator will be very apt to be sub
servient to that question, It is supposed
that the object Of the division is to secure
a slave State on the Pacific. That we see
charged, though we have no evidence. as
yet, to confirm it. Very grave questions
may arise ont Of this proposition in Con-
gess.
The Legislature Of California meets, we
believe, the first Monday in January, when
the proposed division will be brought before
it,} f'k.- - a''A
