The First Tea Destroyed.

The Newburyport Herald is publishing
some very interesting revolutionary remin-
iscences. We make the following extract
from one of the series Of papers, as it re-
lates to subject which will never lose its
interest. After mentioning the excise laws
Of 1874, and the troubles respecting the
stamp act the Herald says;-"Next came
the tea difficulty, and all have heard what
was done by the "MohaWks of Boston with
the tea at that port; but as yet none Of our
historians have given the fact that, before
Boston acted in disguise of Indians, the
ship-carpenters of NeWburyport publicly
and openly burned up the tea in Market
Square. How this well authenticated fact
escaped, that the first defiant resistance
to tea imposition in this country was in New
burvport, we cannot tell. But twice was
this resistance made, once by burning il in
Federal street, and again in the market
The tea was stored in the poSder-house for
safe keeping. Ebenezer johnson, standing
one day upon the timber OF bis yard, called
his men about him, and after few patriotic
words, gave the order:-tAll who are
ready to join, knock your adzes from their
handles, shoulder their handles, and follow
me- Every adze in the yard was knocked
of; and that stout athletic man, who would
have marched through regiment Of red
coats had they stood in his way, carried
his broad ak as an emblem of leadership
and for use, marched at the head of the
company to the powder-bouse. There thas
well-tried ak opened way through the
door, and each man shouldering his chest
Of tea, again fell into line. They marched
direct to the market and then in single
Gle around the old meeting house, where
the pump now is, when Johnson's Ak open
ed his chest, and box and tea were on the
ground together. Each man as be came
up did the same, when, with bis own hand,
johnson lighted the pile and burned his
to ashes; and on that spot withou. disguise
the ship carpenters of Newburyport de-
stroyed the first tea that was destroyed in
America"

The Kansas Legislature have elected
the Territorial officers for terms of six years.
The Cincinnati Commercial thinks it should
now at once resolve itself into permanent
Legislature. giving each member authority
TO hold bis seat during his life, or good pleas
ure, and appoint his successor. That should
be the next step. ..-..-.
The horrible act which was before this
Legislature entitled "An act to punish of
fences against Stare property" (which we
have already published,) has been passed
and the Westport correspondent Of the
Missouri Republican writes of it as follows:
If the "border rufians" could override
Capt. Reeder and the Law, to protect their
rights, as is alledged, it may be regarded
as certain that they are able to enforce the
law We would like to have Reeder, with
his Lawrence legion, attempt to nullify the
laws. They would very quickly be placed
in position to do that they have never
yet done-service to the Territoryl No
such good fortune awaits US. By the day
the law takes effect if one be left in the
Territory his lips will be sealed.
The law seems complete, and may be
copied with advantage by the States
Why has such law not been long since
enacted. If the men of the North really
desire to preserve the Union, they must
do justice to their brothers of the South
protect their property-punish those who
rob them. Kansas has set the example Of
justice and good faith to her neighbors-
Let tha! example be followed and her name
will be blessed. @
This correspondent writes as follows con-
concerning Gov. Shannon and the Border
Rufians::"
He will at once know their sentiments
.they aoM quickly learn hisf They will be
happy to agree with him, bnt not alarmed
it, unfortunately, they differ. Could he
arrive before the adjournment Of the Leg
islature-look on the men assembled from
all parts of the Territory should have no
fears as to his course. For bis sake, I hope

DiabOiicaI Act.

On Wednesday night, between six and
seven o'clock, as a gravel train was backing
down the Lafayette road, some four or FIVE
miles from the city, at point near Crooked
Greek, where the track runs for some dis
tance upon piles. the train ran over some
obstruction placed upon the road, and was
thrown off, severely injuring one man and
hurting two or three others considerably.
Fourteen cars were thrown off out of seven
teen. On examining the track, it was found
that some one had laid heavy plank across
it, and it had evidently been done but a
few minutes as the gravel where the board
had been lying on the embankment was
still damp, marking the outlines of it dis
tinctly, and moreover a train had passed up
without accident only about an hour be-
fore. As the evening passenger train with
a very large number Of passengers return
ing from the Convention, was expected up
about the time the gravel train came down,
there is good reason to suspect that some
inhuman scoundrel did it with the purpose
of killing, is it impossible to guess how
many persons The destruction of life
would have been unparalleled in the his
tory Of railroad disasters. The plank was
placed where the train would have been
thrown, not down an embankment but
sheer dOwn to the ground considerable
distance. And with the hundreds of per-
sons crowding the cars (there were proba-
bly, thousand persons on the train) the de-
struetion would have been appalling be-
yond parallel AS fourteen heavily loaded
gravel cars were thrown off, we can hardly
doubt that every passenger car would have
been hurled with terrific force against the
ground below. We have never been called
on 70 record more diabolical act than this.
There is depth of depravity about it that
even the poisoning era of Italy cannot
equal.
The passenger train arrived in very
few moments after the accident to the
gravel train, so that its escape was owing
solely to the accidental arrival of the grav-
el cars few minutes ahead ofit.-LndiaA-

Special dispatch to The N. Y. Tribune.
Startling Scene in tIae Slave Case
PenlIlS yIvania Aroused.
Philadelphia. Aug. 80, 1851

Philadelphia. Aug. 80, 1855.
Quite thrilling scene took place in
Judge Kelley's Court to-day during the
trial of the Wheeler case. Yesterday the
counsel for the Commonwealth had It all
their own way, and their testimony went
far to show that the woman Jane.was forced
away against her will-that OF Col Wheel
er was especially full and circamstantial, to
this effect: Ia the absence of the woman,
the only person competent to testify fully
to the question Of voluntariness, the Colo
mel could afford to be particularly strong;
but, presto In the midst Of proceedings
this forenoon, Jane johnson appeared in
Court. She came in escorted BY an officer
and aecompanit d by Mrs Mott, Mrs. McKim,
Mrs. Pugh and Mrs Plumby. She was put
on the stand, and her testimony utterly and
entirely destroyed that Of Col Wheeler and
his Witnesses. Her evidence was clear and
just to the point, reiterating in the most
satisfactory manner al she had said in her
affidavit at New York.
But it was bold and perilous move on
the part of her friends. and the deepest sp-
prehensions were felt for while for The
result. The United States Marshal was
there with his warrant and an extra force
to execute il. The officers of the Court
and other State officers were there 10 pro-
tect the witness and vindicate the laws of
the Stale. Vandyke, the United States
District Attorney, swore he would take her.
The State officers swore he should not: and
for while it seemed that nothing could
avert bloody scene. 1t was expected
that the conflict would take place at the
door when she should leave the room, aud
for some time after, the most intense srs-
pense pervs6ed the court room. She was,
however, allowed to enter the carriage that
waited for her without disturbances. She
was accompanied by NJ. MeKim, Secretary
of the Anti slavery Society, Lucretia Mott
and George Cerson, one of our most manly
and intrepid police officers. The carriage
was followed by another filed with officers
as guard, and thus escorted she was TAX
en- back in safety to the house from which
she had been brought. Her title to free
dom under the laws of the State will hard
ly again be brought into question.
Great credit is due to VIM. B. Mann,
acting attorney general. for The manner in
which be has behaved in this case. He
has done much to vindicate the honor of
the State and the sanctity of the Court Of
which he is an officer. Judge Kelly, too.
has behaved with great dignity and impair
tiality.

SUPERIORITY OF AMERICAN MEcuAN1ss

SUPERIORITY OF AMERICAN MECHANISM
Late French papers give the following
account of trial of Reaping Machines
which recently took place in the Vincity Of
Paris:
A trial Of American, French and Eng
lish machines for cutting and gathering up
corn, hay &c, and which are to be seen at
the Exhibition, took place the day before
yesterday at Trappes, Count de Gasparin
presiding. large number of persons were
present; six tents were erected and large
quantities of potables were provided which
from the great heat of the day were in gen.
eral request. NJ. Daily, on whose property
the experiments took place, had special
tent erected, under which he Hospitality en-
tertained the members of the Jury and 9TH
er invited guests. There were nine ma
chimes on the ground, two French, four
American and three English. At given
signal, they commenced the trial, which
was to cut down 1873 square yards of
oats. The American machine of McCor-
mick, completed its task in a mastery man.
ner, in II minutes; the second American
machine took 23 minutes, and the third "a
minutes. The other machines took from
"a minutes to l hour and 20 minutes to
perform their work. The next trial was to
cut down and gather up given quantity of
lucerne, when the palm of victory again fell
to the machine of Mccormick.

RemarkabIe Occurrence.

A circumstance Of a somewhat extraor-
binary character occurred a short time
since in one Of the fourishing towns of the
midland counties. A clergyman died. and
bis wife and daughters, on the third day
after his decease, reco!lecting that no like
ness remained, it was agreed, ere the grave
closed DER him, that the body should be
unshrouded and portrait taken. A young
lady of some professional celebrity was en-
gagged for the task. She with the assis-
tance of the attendant, took of the shroud
and placed the body in the requisit pos
ture; but other duties requiring the artists
attention, the sketch was deferred till noon.
About II O'Clock, at the foot of the bed,
the lady commenced and went through an
hours work on this image of death. At
this stage of proceedings, by some unac-
countable motion, the head of the death-like
figure fell on the side. Nothing daunted,
the artist carefully took the head to replace
it, when 10! the eyes opened, and starring
her full in the face "the dead" inquired,
"who are you?" The young "profession-
a." without trepida:ion, took the bandage
from the head and rubbed his neck. He
Immediately saw the shroud, and laughed
immoderately. The artist quietly called
the family; their JOY may be imagined, but
cannot be described. That evening he who
had lain three days in his shroud, bemoan-
ed by mother and sisters with agonizing
tears, gladdened their hearts by taking his
accustomed place at the tea table, and a:

The Wilmington GUHPowDER ExPLo.
sIoN.-Some new facts of interest concern
ing this explosion, have been made public
by Prof Olmstead who made particular in.
quiry for scientific purposes. 1t will berec-
objected that the explosion was occasioned
by fire from the cigar of one of the team
sters, while the wagons loaded with pow
der were passing through Wilmington
Some of the phenomena were surprising.
A splinter from Venetian blind was
blown through an inch board, making as
smooth hole as if pointed with STEEL
Metals were often displaced. The shoes
we're torn off the horses feet, casters from
furniture, and hinges from doors, and wsg-
on-tire was torn off and Strengthened, and
one peice left on hill quarter of mile
off. Windows were destroyed for the dis
tance of more than a mile. Those near
the spot were burst in those further off had
the nearer windows burst in, the others out
those further off we're all burst out. A
piano open near the spot was little injured ;
one closed, further off was burst open and
nearly ruined. The effect upon the ami
NAL system was 10 produce sutfocation at
first and afterwards soreness of the throat,
or even hemoptysis. Many were carried
some feet and dropped erect. A man on
horseback was lifted out of the saddle and
dropped into it again. But the most won
derful effect was exhibited by three depres-
sions where the wagons had stood. The
one under the middle wagon was ten feet
by FIVE, and three deep 1t appeared that
the earth (Macadamized) had not been re-
moved but condensed. Prof Olmstead
knew of no instance of greater power, even
in the great explosion of Brescia, where
two millions Of pounds of powder exploded
that equaled this. Iron water pipes were
broken off four or FIVE feet under ground.

same time Prince Albert expressed his ad-
miration of Eugenie's beauty to the Queen

PUr IN WHEAT EARLY-Farmers! now
is the time to prepare land for wheat
Don't forget the lessons of the past two
years. Remember that early sown wheat
generally escapes rust aud the midge worm
(weevil) We know some farmers who in
intend TO SOW all their wheat before the
last of this month, August. See to it also,
that the land is deeply plowed, and well
drained, then the crop will be able to with

A MeIOdy.-GO Down. Go Down
TilOu lovely Moon.
Go down, go down, thou lovely Moon!
| would not have thee hear my moan;
Go down, 90 down, ere morning breaks,
And leave me with the night alone!
Icannot bear thy joyous beams;
Each ray is but a torture now:
In vain it smiles along the streams,
Or glorifies the mountain brow.
Where ara the friends with whom strayed
Within thy glow in boyhood's bloom!
The ray still nestles in the glade,
But they are rayless in the tomb.
And yonder watching at the sill,
see form beneath thy light,
How changed 20, Moon why, linger still!
When thus l long for perfect nightl
The light but shows mothers face
With sorrow wan, with years decayed-
A form fast hastning TO the place
Where all must in their turn be laid.
And thou! so sweetly once allied,
We gaze apart upon the ray
And what seemed loveliest, by thy side,
Is hateful now thou art away.
OH Aveline! can'st thou wander now
In those sweet groves where first l prest
My burning lips upon thy brow
And strained thee to my raptured breastl
Yon Moon delighted shone above:
The leaves seemed laughing in their sleep,
And softer for the scene Of love,
We heard the conscious breezes swee-
0, how thy hand was elasped in mine!
o, what soft splendor in thine eye!
o, Hope! o, Love! o, Joy divine!
o, faded, faded Paradise!
Thou moon! cannot bear thy beam:
In darkness | would make my moan:
Go down, 60 down, thou mocking Orb,
And leave me with the night alone!
