If the resolution could be regarded as mere

difficulty; for am not prepared to say that 10 the
exercise Of the discretionary power with which
the corporation Is endowed, in the manage

rize an individual OF assocfa ion to lay down
railroad track even in Broadway. But this resolu-
ton goes farther: II authorizes the associates to

for ten yeus from the time it shall be opened at q
stipulated fee for each carr and provides that il the
parties fail to agree upon tue amount to be paid for

With all the equipments thereto belonging, shall be
surrendered 70 the corporation at a fair and Just
valuation. Can IL be that contract containing such

street TO be wideued or extended or repeal any po-
lice ordinance or regulation" The same view rs ex
pressed by Mr.. Justice Strong in the opinion deliv
cred by Lin upon the motion for an Injunction In
this cause After referring to the prominent features
OF the resolution, that learned Judge ssys: "Surely
all these provisions indicate something more than

The Japan Treaty.

Commodore Perry in a note to the New
York Board Of Trade acknowledging the com
plimentary presentation Of q service of plate
says in relation to the japan treaty:
The treaty, with its notes Of explanation,
had supposed could not be misconstrued. 1t is
not Commercial treaty." but one Of amity and
partial intercourse for trade, and this was all
that II was possible to obtain at first Pre-.
cisely such q compact as ours has been thought
worthy elimination by three Of the great Powers
Of Europe, and it should be recollected that its
9th article contains stipulation, granting to
the United States without any consultation or
delay" whatever superior privileges or advan-
tages may at any future time be conceded to
any other nation or nations.
When the treaty was forwarded by me TO
our government to be submitted by the Presi.
dent, if he saw fit, to the Senate, for ratifca.
ton, notes accompanied it, explanatory Of my
motives and actions; on article 9th / wrote as
follows:
"This is a most important article, as there
can be little doubt that on hearing of the sue
cess of this mission, the English, French, and
Russians will follow our example and IL may
be reasonable to suppose that each will gain
some additional advantage until a commercial
treaty is accomplished. Article nine will give
Americans, without further consultation, all
these advantages"
The result has proved the correctness of my
anticipatons as to the other Powers England
and Russia have both followed our example.
The compact Of England, as one of her officers
states, Says nothing about commerce." while

Melancholy Death OF n Member of the
Legislature.


Melancholy Death OF Member of the
Legislature.
We regret to announce the death of DIR. Viii
liam Il. Harding, the delegate from the coun
ties of Lancaster and Northumberland. He
died yesterday at the Powhatan House, under
the following distressing circumstances: DR.
Ii. had been laboring for some five or six days
under severe attack of Pneumonia, which
had left him in very week condition, though
DR.. Pollard his attending physician, considered
the disease conquered, and his patient rapidly
recovering. A gentle cathartic being deemed
proper yesterday morning, DR.. p. suggested
the citrate Of Magnesia a modern preparation,
not much used in the country, but very popu-
lar in cities DR.. P. prepared prescription
for the magnesia and for some morphine-the
latter to be used externally upon a blister
which was painful and which had been much
soothed by the application Of this medicine
DR.. z. directed the servant to bring the med
cine to his office; but instead of this he took il
to the room of the patient. DR.. P. returned to
his Office about IL o'clock, and not finding the
medicine there, concluded that the servant had
not returned, and stepped out again, thinking
an hour later time enough to give the medicine
Returning in an hour and still not finding the
medicine, he went to the patients room, and
" MS BIcat lOuuu ulul III a uhTCOllS
condition. He found the bottle Of magnesa
about half full and the paper which had con.
tanned the morphine, with the superscription
'to be used externally" empted. The servant
who brought the medicine stated that the
patient had emptied the powder into the bottle,
after which he drank half Of it. The paper
contained 80 grains Of morphine. So be had
taken fifteen.
Drs. Pollard and Deane Immediately COM
menced the proper treatment. The stomach
pump was used, the stomach successfully
emptied, and everything that could be done
was tried to resusciate the patient; but in vain,
death ensued about four o'clock.
Ii is supposed that Dr. Harding, who had
not seen the prescription, and who was not &C.
quainted with the Citrate of Magnesia, con-
cluded that the paper coptained some acidu-
lated powder to be thrown into it. he was
feeble, and it is conjectured that without the
thoughtfulness or care he might have observed
in a more energetic condition, he threw in the
powder not observing the superscription upon
paper.
DR.. Harding was about thirty-fve or forty
years of age, and was an amiable and most
estimable gentleman. The sad circumstances
of his death will add to the sorrow Of his rela.
tiyes and friends. The usual marks of respect
for his memory as q member Of the Legislature
will be paid to-day.

Execution. Of Miller.

Frederick Miller, the German who murdered
DR.. J. f. c. Hadel and young Graf, was exc
cuted at Cumberland on Friday last, in the
presence of an immense concourse Of persons.
He protested his innocence to the last, acknow-
Lodging, however, that he robbed the doctors
Office but utterly refusing to confess the double
murder. Of his guilt there can be no possible
doubt, and the miserable man thus died with
falsehood on his lips. When the attending
circumstances are considered, the crimes of
this man may be looked upon as among the
most attrocious ever perpetrated. Two unof-
Tending men were ruthlessly butchered, and
one of them fearfully mutilated merely to
CRAFTY the assassin's desire of lucre. 1t was
case, the parallel of which the criminal annals
of our country fail to furnish

CONGREGATIONAL.

In the Senate, yesterday, resolution was
adopted, at the instance of Mr.. Brodhead,
directing the Committee on Finance to inquire
into the expediency of reporting the general
appropriation bills, or adopting other measures
with view of obtaining more speedy action
on those bills; the object being to avoid the
evils Of night sessions, and to insure proper
action in the premises. An adjournment until
Thursday took place.
In the House of Representatives, four in
effectual trials were made for the election OF q
Speaker. Ninety-eight votes for that purpose
have, thus far, been taken. The House adj
journed till Wednesday.

NAIVE shall endeavor as soon as possible,
to commence in the Sentinel, the publication
Of the Reports of the Heads of Departments,
as also such other public documents as we
deem of sufficient interest to our readers.
It's unfortunate that our public functionaries
make their reports and documents as long as
they do. Brevity is, perhaps more desirable in
papers of State, than in any other sort of wri-
tings, for they are not read as books, plays,
novels and poems are read for the excitement
and interest they create, but for the sole pur.
pose of getting information. Seldom, indeed, is
it that an official report, unless it be of a
battle, can be called interesting. Such docu-
ments are certainly not interesting to the null
titude. They are usually, nay, almost univer-
sally, read from sense of duty, and feeling OF
relief is experienced when the task is finished.
Nearly all ofour public functionaries, as well
in the States, as under the Federal Govern.
ment, commit the error of which we speak.
1t is usual for Governors message to occupy
one Wholesale of large and closely printed
newspaper; and as for the smaller country
sheets, they either have to exclude such docu-
ments altogether from their columns, or else
surrender their whole space to them. Thirty
one such annual messages would make large
volume, and coming out, as they usually do,
about the same time, the reading Of them would
be quite serious undertaking for any one.

The Late senator Berrien.

We have already briefly recorded the death
Of the Hon. John Mcpherson Berrien, for SO
many years distinguished Senator Of the
United States from the State Of Georgia. The
Augusta Constitutionalist says:
Judge Berrien was born in New Jersey, on
the 23d August, 1871, during the temporary
residence Of his parents there. He had gradu.
ated at Princeton College, in 1896, and was
admitted to practice law in Augusta, in 1899.
In $780, he was elected Judge Of the Eastern
District, which position be held nearly eleven
years. In 1928, he represented Chat
ham county, in the State Senate. In 1924,
he was elected to the Senate OF the United
States. In 1929, during General Jackson's
administration, he was appointed Attorney
General of the States, but resigned in 1881.
In 1910, he was elected United States Senator,
and in l847 again reelected, but resigned in
May, 1852, and retired to private life.
In his public relations, while necessarily sub
ject to the vicissitudes which attend all who
participate in the strife of politics and the
ebbing and flowing Of public sentiment, he
maintained the respect Of all parties.
