SOLEMN SCENE IN TRINITY CUuRcu -
On Sunday last. most interesting and elo
quent episode occurred in Trinity church
Washington. The rector, Rev. DR.. Bntlrr
began his sermon with the admoniion that
the discourse he was about to deliver had been
preached by himself here twelve years AGO.
and he should repeat it Cerbdnm it was a
luclve and effective argument to prove that the
popular idea Of government among us is held
in too loose and secular estimation, while the
fact is, that, however carelessly we regard it,
as merely contract with ministerial agents,
and however inadequate our respect for laws
and constitutional authorities, it is a Divine
institution The peroration was very pow
erful Said the reverend gentleman
" Twelve years ago, after had finished this
discourse, met the amented Daniel Webster
just outside the church. He said to me- Sir,
you are right ; it is the true doctrine In this
view, my brethren, l see in the awakened
strength of the government the glittering
sword OF Almighty vengeance suspended over
its enemies. In this view alone do | descry
the only hope for my glorious, my beloved
country "-and at these words, the tears
streaming down over the preachers face, in Il
voice clicked with meXpressible emotion, he
raised his eyes towards heaven, and, hesitat-
ing TO receive uIterance he concluded in a
tautering, though artcuate tones, "Esto
perpetual" The effect was electrcal-evcry
eye in the house was suffused with tears, and
the quiet OF the sanctuary was broken only by
sObs and weeping.

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY FROM BURNING Flu
ID.-On Wednesday evening, the wife OF MIR.
Francis Chisholm, residing on Forrest street,
Winchester, were burned so severely by the
explosion of a can OF burning fluid as to cause
their DEATH The Child died soon after the oc-
currence, the mother Thursday morning. The
can was under the sink in the kitchen, and
the child got hold of some matches, lighted
them, and placed them into the nose OF the
can, which instantly exploded. The child was
u years of age, the wife about 30 years.
The mother had all her clothes burned off,
and rushed out Of the house with her hair on
fire, when her neighbors came to her relief.
Her body was terribly burned, but she linger-
ed in great agony, although conscious and able
to talk, until about o'clock the next morning,
when death released her from her sufferings.
The room took fire from the explosion and
was slightly burned. The other three children
| of Mr.. Z. were not in the house at the time
| Mr.. &. did not arrive from the city until after
the occurrence, vi ich took place at 81 clock

UNCLE SANS BRoGANs.' "A ludicrous in
cldent in connection with the spy service in
Havre de Grace occurred on Sunday night.
Col. Burney had the uniforms taken off a
couple OF toerably smart men belonging to
one Of the companies, and dressed them IN
rough citizens clothes. They were then sent
to Bush river to look through that neighbour
hood, and see what was going on. They pass
ed down by the by roads al d lanes during the
evening, but late in the night in coming np
the track they were pounced upon by sen.
tlnel from Capt. Spears company, at Aber.
deem. They told the guard they were travel.
ers, and desired to pass up the road to Havre
de Grace The guard surveyed the pair from
top to toe, and when he came to look at their
shoes, suddenly brought his piece to charge
bayonet, and said: "No you don't; travellers
in these times don't wear Uncle Sans bro
gans III just arrest you for desertion" and
accordingly took them before Capt Spear,
who sent them up tied neck and heels to Col.
Burney, when, it is needless to say, they had
no further trouble, except the laugh, which
has since then greeted them in camp.-Phila-

WE understand that there is some thought
of introducing in the legislature movement
to strike from the constitution of the state that
ugly thing, the Two Years Amendment"
We presume that such movement would
succeed without difficulty. That amend
ment never was in accordance with public
sentiment in this state. But few voted for it;
and many of those who did so did not
intend to have the measure become a
part of the settled policy of the state.
TIE feelings out of which it sprung were as
transient ms morning fog. They have vanish
ed, and the measure itself will follow them.
AT the present time no man among us is like
ly 10 deny the patriotism of our adopted citi.
zens. They are among the foremost to follow
the "Star Spangled Banner" and strike down
its enemies. Let us strike down all proscrip-
tive measures which assail their rights. Let
the "Two Years Amendment disappear.

MIME RIFLES.

We notice that many persons seem not to
understand what is meant by MIME rifle
They speak of all our government rifles as
Mimic rifles and even designate the rifed
musket as "Minie musket." MINES chief
invention was a bullet and it is the MIME bullet
that makes the rifle shooting of the French
army so effective.
Claude Etienne Mimic was at first private
soldier in the French army, who began his
military life when he was very young. 1t is
one OF the pecuiarities of that army, that
man can rise in it from the ranks and become
field marshal, if sufficiently merilolious. Min
lie rose to be a captain OF foot chasseurs. In
this position he found time and opportunity
to let loose his inventive faculty. He
made important improvements in gun
barrels and cartridges, which were adopt.
ed by the government and, finally, he per.
fected his invention of the famous MIME bull
let, which in the French army has superseded
everything else of the kind. In 1849 he re-
ceived the cross Of the legion of honor, and
few years later received commission as a
major. He was then stationed permanently at
Vincennes as instructor i'll the use of fire arms.
The MIME bullet is an elongated cylinder,
conical in front, and coneave behind. 1t has
a thin band, and when in cartridge, the pow
der behind it fills the cavity, and on exploding
swells out the edge, making it fit and fill tile
groves OF the rifle barrel. This greatly in
creases its force and makes it effective at very
long distances. Mimic improved rifle barrels,
and nearly the whole French army are now
furnished with guns of this improved pattern
but the "Minie" Should be applied to the bull
let rather than the gun, when it means ter
&c force aud execution.

SCIENCE AIDING IN THE DEFENCE OF
THE UNIoN.-The government has made an
arrangement to use the Calcium light at Fort
ress Monroe, and the apparatus will be sent up
on the parapcts in few days. This famous
light possesses extraordinary illuminating
power. One OF the refectors, which was once
placed on the Latting observatory in this city,
cast stinct shadow at Tarytown, thirty
miles distant By the aid OF this light the
garrison at Fortress Monroe, will be able to
detect any vessel that may attempt to pass the
fortress at night, and give its artillery dis
tinct object on which to be effective no matter
how great the surrounding darkness.-N. Y.

Orrin Brown, son of Old John Brown, now
living in Trumbull, O., had his left hand torn
off on Monday last, by the premature dis
charge OF a cannon which was being discharg-
ed in honor of the volunteers. The hand was
so badly torn that it was necessary to ampu
tate il just below the elbow.
