Rem iscence of IS37-An American ExII

lTTOln tnc Ulcd W. L } hefalu.l
Not long since an elderly man, bent almost
double with age and work, and in garments tat
tered and torn, while passing through Rome,
New York, stopped at one of the stores, and
asked for food or money. He volunteered the
remark that he was ashamed to beg, but stated
as an explanation, and in extenuation, the fol
lowing as the cause of the necessity. His home
was Saratoga, and he CHANGED to be in Canada
at the time of the rebellion in that country in
1887. He was charged with being engaged in
that outbreak, was tried and convicted for be-
ing in completely with the 'Patriots,' - and SEN
fenced to Van Dieman's Land for life. He
says he was not guilty, but that the feeling was
so strong against the yankees" at the time
of his trial, it required but slight evidence to
convict.
He was then some twenty-one or twenty-five
years of age; he was taken to that penal col
ony, and there subjected to the severest drudg-
cry and the most inhuman treatment; he, with
other convicts, was compelled to draw the
plough and cart like oxen, and to labor early
and late, and treated not much better, if any,
than the dumb beasts. Thus were twenty
eight years of life passed, never hearing from
friends or home, or allowed to communicate
herewith. He, with others, was finally par
doned, and allowed to reach his home as b es
he might.
He left the country a hale and hearty youth
erect and full of life and vigor. He returns tc
it, after thirty years absence decrepid ole
man, bent over with age and work, and with
shattered health and broken constitution
The narration he gave of his life there, and the
details of his treatment, fully impressed his
hearers with the truth of his statements, and
that he was no impostor. He was on his wa
home, not knowing he would find being who
knew him when boy.

The Mississippi Election.

New YORK, Oct. 4.-The Herald has receiv-
ed the following special despatch:
JACKSON, Miss, Oct 3.-The election in this
State passed off very quietly yesterday.
The vote for Governor will be close between
Judge Fisher and General Humphreys, though
the returns from the Southern portion of the
State will probably secure the election of the
former. Humphreys is not eligible, not hay
ing been pardoned by the President, and it will
be unfortunate for the State if he proves to be
elected.
In places where local candidates have sprung
the admission of negro testimony in civil courts,
the nonadmission candidates are successful,
thus repudiating the proclamation of Governor
Sharkey on the subject. The returns come in
slowly, there being but few mail routes estab-
lished
The Legislature will meet on next Monday
week, and many of the members will bring the
election tickets with their credentials The
general reputation of everything looking to-
wards the civilization of the negroes may be ex-
pected.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 3.-Returns of the cleo
ton in Mississippi indicate the certain election
of General Humphreys, as Governor, by large
majority.

THE TCE QUESTION AGAIN.

We are glad to see that the CITY Council
(tirst Branch) has moved in the matter of
clearing the harbor Of ice; and we trust that
this subject will not be allowed to rest until
something satisfactory has been ACCOMPLISHED.
Nothing of more vital importance connected
with the commerce of Baltimore has for a
long time engaged public attention; and as
pertinent to this matter we have had our at
tcntion drawn to the merits of machine for
breaking the ice, which in the opinion of many
would be of the greatest utility. Invented
many years since with reference to this very
need, although strongly recommended, it has
somehow never been called into requisition:
and so with view of calling the attention of
those whosareaato act in thesscase, and as mat
ter Of special public interest at this time. we
lay before our readers the following papers
explaining its mode of operating, and recon-
mending it to consideration:
A ROTARY ICE CUTTER FOR CLEANING RIVERS Avn
HARBoRs, WHICH CAN BE ATTACHED TO ANY STEAM
VESSEL. % -l''
The object is to clear the channel and throw the oo
out OF the track, which can be done by this machine

Editorial ' ' --'''I
A New STEAM IcE BREAKER-Mr. R. W. Hevwood
Of thls CITY, has invented and taken out letters
for most ingenious machine for cutting and hreaing
up Ice IN rivers and opening harbors which can he
appled with slight expense to any of our river DrO-
peIlers and removed when the season is over.
1t consists OF series of six or more metal wheels
each armed with ten sharp steel blades and
together on the outer edge by two planning irons the
ehect on the ice being to cut it in grooves first and
then by means of the planning irons TO scotte + IN o b
wake OF the vessel in such small particles as 70 causn
It to oat off with the under current and occasion no
further impeachment.
The formation of the wheel also gives propulsion to
the vessel SO that the whole power of the engine can
be devoted to the breaking Of the ice N''l
Experiments with the working model show that
the blades make f'ro thousand cuts pcr minnie and the
planng irons four hundred cuts, sufficient to open
chahne IN Ice OF SIX to ten inches in thickness at be
rate OF a mile to mile and a-half per hour
Inc cutting OF such small particles is a most desira
and distinguished engineers and builders is most con
elusive as to Its entire practicability.
