A Noble BGy.

The State Journal publishes some lines
written by the mother of Harmon Everett
Meacham, messenger boy in the Ohio
House of Representatives, and gives a
touching bit of history in connection thre-
with. 1t states that in q letter enclosing
the lines Mrs. Meacham says:
"My boy is good boy, 0, God, protect
him. Could you have seen him the last
of December, starting from home on foot,
to walk the distance of twenty-five miles,
through mud, sheet and rain carrying the
valise weighing nearly sixty pounds, to take
the cars for Columbus, seeking situation of
messenger boy, that he might earn money
to pay the claims against the estate, and
save our beautiful cottage home, you too,
would have said he is good boy. My
husband, the late Doctor Meacham, spent
the last years of his life by the bedside of
the sick and dying, and Everett and l are
left alone in the wide, wide world"
There was pathos in this letter, which
touched our feelings, and yesterday We
made diligent inquiry for Everett. We
wished to see him. We inquired of sever
al members if they knew such a lad, and
they answered in the affirmative, adding
that he was one of the best boys in the
House. One of the members said he would
find him, and let us see him, which he did.
Everett is bright little fellow, apparently
about ten years ofage. He told us that
he had boarded all the session at the Buck
eye House, and paid for bis board two dol
lars and half week. He had spent
none of his money except for his board,
and he had in his pocket seventy-fve dol
lars, which he was going to carry home to
his mother. He had his valise packed,
and would leave in the cars that after
noon. So the little fellow has gone home,
and we say God bless him too.

Fr,m the No 'wieh, Conn. Courant
A SOrdid Wretch.

We had yesterday the particulars of a
revolving transaction just come to light in
Greenfield. Harlan Hyde lost his wife one
year ago. She was his third wife, and had
been married only a year when she died,
and was buried in the Greenville Cemetry.
About one week ago, Hyde went to the
cemetry, dug open the grave, broke open
the coffin, and rified it of what? does our
reader imagine ?-Of set of false teeth,
that he might coin the gold plate upon
which the teeth were set, into money to
put in his pocket. We dare say the fellow
meant to sell the teeth, too, if be could find
purchaser.
We wonder not at the intense indigna-
ton which blazes against the miserable
creature in Greenfield. or that the wo-
men of the 5illage can scarcely be restrain
ed from treating him to coat of tar and
feathers.
Hyde is not far from fifty years Of age,
house carpenter ly trade, in comfortable
circumstances as to property, and We are
ashamed to add, is a member of Chris
tian church.
The wife whose grave he desecrated was,
as we have said his third wife. When she
married him, she is understood to have
had some four or five hundred dollars in
the savings bank. A part of this she used
in furnishing her husbands house, and,
when dying she gave him her bank book
on which she had still standing to her cred
it, between two and three hundred dollars.
1t is now currently reported and believed
III Greenfield, that when his wife died, and
when she laid dead in her shroud in the
house, her affectionateh husband attempted to
remove the coveted teeth from her mouth;
but the rigid muscles would not relax, and
he was, consequently, compelled to suspend
operations for the time. But it was only
suspension. The purpose was merely
postponed, not relinquished; and after
brooding over the idea for twelvemontb,
he has finally put it in execution. Hyde,
not only confesses to have done this horri-
bic thing, but he is even brazen enough to
justify it.

SPIRITUAL BANeUEr-SPIRITs DANCING
The Spiritulists in Cincinnati held a
Banquet on new plan at National Hall
Wednesday evening. 1t was mixed as
sembly, the Gazette says, ofall ages-from
the gray-headed old man, to the child scarce
able to toddle across the floor, and adds I:
The entertainment consisted of dancing,
with spiritual communications between the
sets singing by Master Holden, fancy
dance by young lady, speeches and coffee.
The spirits gave notice, through Mrs.
Carver, that as soon as the dancing COM
menced on the floor, they also would bal
ance their partners, and initiate the antics
of those in the lower sphere.
Shafer, the pebble hunter, who makes
pearls out of clam shells, said his heart
was so full that he must say one word
He contrasted the progress of Christianity
to Spiritualism, showing that the latter
was some ahead.
The Banquet, was orderly and pleasant,
and closed at the early hour ef IL.

important Decision In the Ere.
mont Case.

Coi. Fremont and family arrived in Cal.
ifornia previous to the sailing Of the last
steamer, and they propose to reside for the
summer at his beautiful home ia Bear
Grass Valley.
The Supreme Court of California has
made decision that seriously effects Col.
Fremont pecuniarily, and which will doubt
less be taken on writ of error to the Su-
preme Court of the. United States. Two
of the California Judges CONCUR in the deci-
sion, and Judge Field dissents. The case
is that of Biddle Boggs against the Merced
Mining Company, and the Times cores
pondent says:
The plaintiff leased portion of the tract
known as Las Mariposas from Col. Ffe-
mont in April, 1857, paying monthly
rental of one thousand dollars. Six years
before, the defendants had takon posses
sion of the land, and operataed upon it in
mining they have retained possession to the
present time, expending in machinery, &c,
$4,000. This suit was brought to recov-
er possession and damages. The decision
of the Supreme Court limits the considers.
ton of the case to two points. lst.
Whether the title to the mineral passed 10
Col. Fremont with his cohfrhted grant. to
the real estate. I'd. Whether, conceding
that it did not the defendant had the right
to extract the gold while the title in fee
simple of the land is in the lessor of the
plaintiff. The Court held, on these points,
that the title TO the gold in the premises
was reserved by Mexico, and passed by
treaty to the United States, and has. not
passed from them to the lessor Of the
plaintiff; and that the owner of mining
claim has, in practicle effect, a good vested
title to the property until his title is di-
vested by the exercise of the superior right
of the higher proprietor. The Judgment
of the inferior court is revised, and the cause
remanded, direction being given that judg
ment be entertained for the defendants.-
The decision is regarded as great triumph
for the minors and can hardly fail 10 result
in the peeuniary ruin of Col. Fremont,

KENYON COLLEGE, OHIo.-While the
city of New York is often abused for its
niggardliness and wickedness, it ought 10
be remembered that it is full of redeeming
graces and virtues. A vast deal is done
every year, and every week, we may add
for the cause of free education, subject
the importance of which can hardly be
overrated in free country like this. We
heard yesterday of two contributions,
from two sources only, in this city, of ST.
500 each, to relieve Kenyon College from
its emba:rassmen:s, and to place it upon a
permanent footing of usefulness. There
was also contributation of $4,000 for the
same object at the Rev. DR.. Tyng's church
Sunday before last, and pledge of $4,000
more, making the handsome sum of $685.
900 for education in the West. Previous
contributions to considerable amount
have also been made in the city, for the
same object. II, therefore, this New York
of ours be the Sodom and Gomorrah rep
resented by some, it is not without its right
eous men to save it.
