was my good fortune to be with the Doctor on
trial trip Of bis first car in 1853, on the Newfork
City and Buffalo Railroad. 1t was ricketty, worn
idea would work when perfected. From Chicago
for a hundred miles rode in en- ordinary car, and
such an awful dust never experienced BY acct.
dent learned that the last car in the train had
Foote's Ventilator, and from White Pigeon to Tol-
edo rode in it without dust, although clouds of
dust were whirIing about our car. On the Cleye-
land and Columbus road there had been no rain for
ten days, and the dust was considerable. Foote' s
car was the last in the train, and each window is
furnished with little door, say four inches by ten
which is kept open when the train is in motion.
The air is caught in a funnel on the top of the car
and is forced down a trunk on each side,
and thence passes through spray Of water into an
iron trough running under the car and furnished
with several openings so that the air freed Oh dust
and delightfully."- cooled with water is constantly
coming up the whole length of the car and passes
out of the little door in the windows. The current
of air is forcing itself out Of the car and hence is
impossible for The dust to get in. i started from
Cleveland that dusty day with clean collar, and
at the end of 1875 miles it was clean yet which is
some thing to say for railroad ride
The comfort Of journey in the Summer from
New-York to st. Louis would be vastly increased
by Foote'S invention. Please, Messrs. Editors,
stir I'D our Eastern roads to try this simple but,
as it seems to me, most admirable plan OF giving
the MARTYR of railroad travel freedom from dust
and foul air.

BURNING 4 NEGRO At THE STAKE.

Some time since we published an account of the
murder of Miss Thornton, interesting young girl
residing near CASTOR, Alabama. Immediately after
Che murder and detection of the negro bis immediate
punishment was seriously contemplated by the peo-
pie of Sumpter County but after mature deliberaton
The law-abiding citizens delivered him into the Gus
tody of the proper officers, and he committed to
prison.
At the late term of the Circuit Court Of Sumpter
County, the Attorney appointed by the Court in the
discharge of lis dutys moved for change of venue
TO Greene County The Judge, as the motion was
sustained by the proper affidavit, sustained the ap-
pcston.
On Wednesday last the citizens Of South Sumpter
assembled en- masse at Mr.. William McElroy's and
unanimously passed series of resolutions, rejecting
seriously upon the conduct of the Judge and after
having pledged themselves TO sustain each other por-
ton Of them proceeded to Livingston and took the
miserable criminal by force from the jail where he
confined.

SHAKESPEARE HENRY VIII AT LON
DON
From The London Times. Nav p.

In treating the historical play of Henry VIII as
sentialy pageant, MIR. Charles Kean has revived
the tradition of former times, though of late years
when q revival of the piece has taken place it has
been produced without especial attention to decora-
tons for the sake of actress who has chosen TIE
part OF Queen Katharine as one of series of star
characters. Ii was written indeed al period when
theatrical pageaniry had scarcely begun hut neverhe-
less the directions of the published editions Of Shake
speGTe minute in the descriptions of the order of
the professions and the pomp of the other ceremonies
and DIR; johnson, speaking OF bis own time, says:
The play of Henry VIII is of those which still
keeps possession of the stage by the splendOr of its
"pas eanty" adding that forty years before the date
of hs edition the coronation drew the people together
IN muliuces for great part of the Winter. In this
statement he audes to the year 1877 when on the Oc
easion of the accession of George III coronations in
general were prominent in the public mind and there
fore the coronation Of Anne Boeyne, though she was
only Queen Consort, derived interest from its as
ISOLATION with the topic Of the day. With regard to
the gorgeous revivas Of many of Shakespeare PLAYS
the objection has often been made that they are
founded false principle of art which would rem
der the principal objects OF work subservient to the
accessories and are only excusable on the plea that
when histrloDic talent hes declined it is matter of
necessity mot vrtue) TO have to the s1ene
painter and the costumier. This objection based on
sound theory, does not however apply to Henry WILL

a pageant, and be who makes of it the most perfect
pageant most perfectly carries out the original design
Even Colerdge who could not be suspected of TAX
ing too practical view OF plays of anything else
adds hls opinion TO the record of DR.. johnson by de-
cafing that it is "a sort Of historical masque or
show-play."
In carrying out an old notion Mr. Charles Keau has
gone TO work on principle exclusively modern. He
has not only essaed to dazzle the eyes Of spectators
with gtterBg showthough be does this most effect
ually-but he has sought TO make his stage vehicle
OF archaeological Instruction. and thus keeps pace with
that tendency OF the dey TO obtain the most accurate
information as 10 the life and habits of the past. He
hes rru msged out old books, he has tuned over old
prints, lie bes brushed the dust off old music he has Ia
bored that neither eer eye shall detect single mac
ouracy amid mass Of splendor. The coup d'rI he
displays is Of the meet brilliant kind but he obyiousv

Batterman, Agent of 81, SAC e5 over the month
last year, when Gen. Lockwood was Agent
The defenders of the profigacy of the ex-prison
officers have been trying for the past four months to
apologize 10 the public for the difference in prison
pondiures during the first quarter of the years 1854
and 1855 by saying it unfair to draw a COMPARE
con- because Gen. Lockwood was acting under the
old law, while Gen. Batterman had been acting under
the new. The amended law went into operation on the
LIST of May, 1854 consequently Gen. Lockwood acted
under II from that time until he was removed from
office, on the LIST day of January last.
In May 1854, Lockwood managed the affairs of the
prison under the same law that governs Gen. Batter
man. and yet the books show that the prison cost the
State in a single month under Lockwoods admnistra-
ton 81 $40 IS than does at present-being at
the rate of $4,000 ayear and this, too with both
agents acting under the same law, and with the fact
that Prison provisions are now fu 80 per cent higher
than they were then.
Let us now recapitulae the expenditures Of the
Prison for the first five months OF the years 1884 aud
