lIiDuto vi htSpcCt.
At meeting of the brethren of
ICONS Hill Lodge, No. 16'i held at
their hall, August the 18th, A. L
1854, and A. D. 1854, the following
preamble and resolutions were unani-
mously adopted:
WHEREAS, it hath pleased Almigh-
ty God in his inscrutible Providence,
to remove from the walks of men
and our midst, our honored and much
esteeE.ed brother and felloB-eitizen,
. DAVID JEFFERSON KrMEs, who depart
ed this life in hope and bright pros
pect Ct a glorious immortality be-
yond the grave, on Tuesday, the Sth
day of August, 1854, and in the 22d
year of his age, who possessed the
entire confidence and esteem Of all
who knew him, in every capacity Of
life, and to know him was but to love
and adore him.
Resolred, Therefore, that in the
deceased, existed in prominent de-
gree, those attributes of cart, char
acter, and mind, that constitute the
great and good man, and that should
and ever does command the highest
respect, and invites the appreciation
of all true and good men.
ResO1ped, That the Masonic frater
nifty to which be belonged, recognize
and regret the irreparable loss of a
worthy, true, and devoted brother,
and the church an efficient and zeal
Gus member, and the community an
exemplary citizen
| Resc1ced, That in the various re-
lations in life, he sustained an un-
blemished reputation, and that his
firm and unyielding integrity enti-
lied him to the highest admiration in
life, and is worthy of imitation after
death.
Resolped, That we sincerely and
deeply sympathize with the young
widow who has been so soon and sud-
denly bereayed Of her beloved, and
the family and relations Of the de-
ceased, whose life, though short was a
dedication Of his talents and ener-
gies to the promotion of the welfare
and happiness of his fellow-men.
Resolved, That in confirmation of
our respect; that the members Of our
Lodge wear the badge of mourning
for thirty days.
Resolred, That these resolutions be
published, and a copy forwarded to
the widow and family of the deceased.

Expenses Of the Government.

The whig pa pers find the appro-
priatiuns for the support Of the.Gov-
eminent a subject for a comment
nowadays" The aggregate is
large-muoh larger. We believe, than
it ought to be. Bat we have no
doubt that it will be found that the
wings generally voted for these APP
preparations, and that the only oppo-
sition 1.-THE ext faVagance came from
democrats:
To make the sum as large as pos
sible the whig papers add to the ac-
tual appropriations S10,QOO,OOO
asked for by the President to pro-
vide for possible negotiations with
Spain for the Island of Cuba, but
not appropriated by Congress, and
the S2,500,0GO included in the river
and harbor bill, vetoed by the Presi-
dent. (See the True Wig of yes
day morning) This is certainly an
ingenious way of figuring up a heavy
total. 1t has the advantage, besides,
Of giving the wings a chance for a
double assault upon the President
and Congress. Especially is this
the case as TO the river and harbor
bill. The Presidents bitterly abused
for having vetoed the bill. And the
democratic Congress is abused for
extravaganza in having passed the
bill. Who can say these Ehig edi-
tors lack ingenuity in bolstering up a
bad causel

RErALIA rIoN. UPON THE NoRr

Connecticut is likely to pay dear
for her rebellion against The constl-
tuition. The leading men Of South
Carolina q re celebrating upon q
project for the imposition Of sort
Of ociroi or exercise upon manufac-
lures imported from Cor necticnt;
and from the tone of the Southern
press, il seems likely tliatthe scheme
will be carried into effect. Ilwould
be only fair and just. If Connect
cut attempts 10 deprive Southern
men Of their property, South Caro-
lima is justified in refusing to encour-
age the industry of that Stately pur-
chasing their manufactures. Our
neighbors seized atwo edge weapon,
they will find that if they can injure
the South, the Soulhcan injurt them
Yin return, and no one knows which
of the two wiil gel the best of the
fight. When the aspirations Of Gar
rison aud Greedy are re allied, and
disunion takes place, Connecticut
may deal With Southerners as in her
wisdom to her seems fit SO long as
the Union exists, rebellion by one
State against the others Cannot be
but a losing game.-N 7. Herald.

RICHMOND, MARSHALL Co, re. Aug. 81.
Mr.. EDITOR: Oar hitherto tran
quill neighborhood was thrown into a
leryor of the greatest excitement on
Thursday morning last by one of the
most deliberate, cool, and premedi-
tated murders that ever graced the
annals Of crime. The horrid deed
was perpetrated upon the person of
Of Mr.. David L,wrance, an aged
and highly esteemed citizen of
our community, by bis negro, Mar
Tin. The substance of the evidence
as given before the jury Of inquest
is as follows: Early in the morning,
L. ordered the boy to cutting millet,
and sometime after breakfast, he
went to the field and found Martin
at work at a different place from
which he had been engaged the day
before, the old man demonstrated
with him for not doing as he was or
dered, when the negro fatty dispu-
ted bis word, and Mr.. Lawrence ad-
vanced to him with his cane, when
Martin struck him with his moving
blade, severing the vertebra and in
flictinga wound Of eleven inches in
length just below the shoulder blade.
The only witness to this terrible
deed was small negro boy, who run
to the house and acquainted the fam
lily with the circumstances. The
first to reach him was his eldest
daughter, an amiable girl, who raised
her ia Their and supported him on her
bosom but life had fled, and she on
ly embraced the hfeless remains Of
her beloved parent.
The scene in the field, rs des-
cribed by an eye witness was heart
lrending in the extreme. The father
dead-the mother and children fran
tic with grief--the daughter covered
with the still warm blood Of her aged
father-and the little ones looking in
quiringly on, made it a spectacle that
would thrill with horror the stoutest
hearts.
The fieud attempted to escape
but was soon surrounded and taken.
The neighbors flocked in by hum
Idreds, aud for while there seemed
to be only one opinion, which was to
execu te summary vengeance BY
hanging the dark perpetrater to the
next tree-but after more mature
delibera ton he was placed in the
hands of an officer a nd taken to jail
Throughout the VII ole scene the
murderer, though, e Expecting every
moment his life wou ld be taken,
showed not the least sign of fear or
alarm, bun gazed on the proceedings
vii lib stole indifference
Thus has a family been deprived
of their protector, an d society OF a
valuable member, by a heElish fiend
whom he had raised and nurtured as
tenderly as a son.

\ i. NJ. K EMMETT. Luther NJ. Ken
nett, lately elected to Congress over
Col. Benton, is another selfmade
man. About twenty-f I'VE years ago,
he was deputy clerk un der MIR. John
Talialerro, of Newport, KY, for his
board. The Clerks Office, then,
was on the Court-h louise square
where an old engine house now
stands.
Alr. hennet was then quite young;
and desir..l & to do som citing for him

boat for ST. Louis. Mir. Taliaferro
hed ring tthat no was about to leave
GALE on Kennett to k now if he was
pro vided with funds. He had not a
dollar. Mr.. T. literally paid Ken
nett's cabi q passage and gave hin
sew eral dolla rs besides. Soon after
arriving at st. Louis, Cnpt. Swami, o.
the "Old Au tocrat,' and we'll known
in this city, took Kenneth as second
clerk. BY assiduity and strict con.
duct, he won the regard of the Cap,
tain, and became successfully first
clerk and part owner of the boat.
