burning Grams Mill in 1856, claimed TO be

A man named Franklin Stiles had pre-
viously been arrested on q charge of burn
ing the mill, last winter, and WAS confined
, in Jail. Yesterday when Mc3ride's exam

witness: having previously stated to Messrs.
! Chaplin, Cram and Patton that he had ac-
companied Mcbride, and the two burned
the mill. Stiles testified that Mcbride had
met him month before the FIRE and asked
him if he did not want some money; and
on being told he did, that he asked what
he would do for it. siAlmost anything

to give him $50 ii he would help him fire

account of the danger of detection, he

WHEN the shoemakers' strike was going
on in Massachusetts, many of the South
ern papers regarded it as dangerous con-
fict between capital and labor, and made
grave homilies upon the peculiar evils of
this kind to which an untried system of
free labor was subject. There was no Sc
curity but in slavery, no stability but I'M
der the institutions where capital o'rnsd
labor. These discussions were the theme
of much natural merriment among those
who were lectured upon the great mistake
which they were making in according
consideration and dignity to labor. Yet,
We doubt not, they were tolerably sincere.
Such is the degree to which political big

experiment of free labor is worse than
doubtful. and has nearly failed.
