Hon. Louis McLANE died in Baltimore on
the eth inst. He has been one Of the most
able and prominent men in the generation of
statesmen that succeeded the patriots of the
Revolution. In 1916 he was elected to the
House of Representatives from Delaware
He remained member Of that body until
1927, when he was chosen Senator of the
United States. In May, 1929, he was ap-
pointed by President Jackson to be the Min
lister of the United States to Great Britain,
where he remained two years, and on his re-
turn he was called by the same President to
take place in the Cabinet as Secretary OF
the Treasury. He served in this place until
1888, when he became Secretary of State, and
in June, 1884, he retired from political life.
In 1887 he accepted the Presidency Of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, and discharged
the duties of that office until ls47. At this
time, Mt the solicitation of President Polk, he
occupied, during the tendency of the Oregon
negotiations, the mission to England. After
ward he was induced to become a member OF
the Constitutional Convention of Maryland
subsequent to which he did not appear in
public life.

INDIANA COPPER. Indianapolis
State Journal has specimen of ma
tive copper found in Delhi, Carroll conn
ty in this State. 1t is rich and found in
considerable quantities on the surface.
1t is not known whether it exists in ]
vein, or merely in boulders brought
from the North by the operations Of ma
ture. 1t is said to be the largest ana
richest specimen of native Copper found
South and East Of Lake Superior. The
specimen, the Journal says, appears to
have been cut by chisel from large
mass and is so pure that it could be
worked at the forge without smelling.
The discovery has created some excite
ment, and will lead to further explora-
tons. These accidental revelations oil

SWEET On FROM BEECH NUTs.-A
correspondent Of the State Journal says
the farmers in the Southern part Of
Germany gather the nuts of the beech
and press from them very fine sweet
oil, that answers the purposes Of Olive
oil. He suggests that our farmers make
an experiment with our abundant crop
of beech nuts this year. He thinks our
farmers could gather crop from the
nuts in our forests, from which an abund-
ant supply Of salad oil could be OBJ
tanned, superior to the adulterated ar
ticles we import and pay extravagant
prices for. Tho hickory, black-walnut
and many other nuts and seeds, would
answer the purpose. The beech nut,
if expressed cold, would yield a most
delicious oil, and would be much more
valuable than when converted into mast
fed pork.

The Election.

Our citizens must net forget that there
is an election to-day for member Of
Congress in this district, and for import
ant county officers. There is SO little said
upon the subject in the streets and in
private circles, and the Enquirer, which
is the peculiar organ of the friends Of the
candidates, has been so entirely "mum"
on the subject, that there is danger that
many voters may not be aware Of the i'm
portant event, and fail to fulfill their
duty. Judge Nibblack is certainly a
most fortunate aspirant for political hon.
ors; young man without great talents
he receives the nomination without hav-
ing resorted to intrigue or making an eff
fort for it, and is about to be elected by
unanimous consent, without having
made speech, or spent an hour to Sc
cure it. The honors that others labor
and intrigue for years to attain, are con
ferred upon him, by consenting to receive
them. A member Of Congress elected
under such auspices can know no party
but the whole people. He is the candi
date of all parties, and has no obligation.

were all taken violently i'll after eating
breakfast on the 9TH inst, evidently
from effects of poison in their food. The
coffee mill had been put up in an open
porch accessible from the outside, and on
examining it, the remains of arsenic and
corrosive sublimate were found in its
creyces. 1t was at once suspected that
some malicious person had during the
night thrown the poisonous substances
into the mill and they had been ground
up with the coffee, which had been pre-
pared for breakfast. Two persons against
whom some members Of the family had
given testimony on charge Of burglary,
were arrested on suspicion of being the
perpetrators Of the dlabolical act. Two
OF the family are in very precarious
state, with little hopes of recovery.

Railroad aud River Tran spOrtatiOn.
A Convention Of Railway managers is
to meet this week at Cleveland to adopt
measures to reduce the cost Of managing
roads, and to establish a tariff Of rates
that shall yield some returns for the vast
capital invested IN the roads. There is a
difference of opinion in regard to the
policy Of raising the rates Of travel, but
none dispute the necessity of large in
crease of the tariff on freights. 1t is ad-
mitted that railroads can no longer trans
port lreishts at the present prices. If
any material advance be made on freights
by railroads, business will return to its
old lines of transportation by the rivers,
and river towns will again become the
principal points Of shipments. and re-
sumo their importance as commercial
places. A change in the rates Of
through freights will have an important
effect probably upon the business Of our
own city. A great deal of the trade OF
the Wabash Valley that has been drawn
from us over the Eastern railway lines
will probably come back to the rivers
and to 60 the Eastern markets and
Europe by the way of New Orleans and
the sea. We shall not regret therefore
u hear that the Convention at Cleveland
has advanced their tariff % or even 50
per cent. on freight.
