A MINISTER ON FIRE.-In one
of the Presbyterian churches of
New York the other Sunday
morning, minister was officiating
with all due decorum and solem-
nifty. All at once he began to cut
up queer antics and shortly disap-
peared from public view, to the no
small astonishment of his auditors
The pulpit being a close one, boxed
up on all sides and the door shut,
the people could not tell what
was going on. Smoke arising
from the pulpit gave assurance that
there was fire somewhere, and the
stencil filed the house, setting ev-
cry one sneezing and coughing, IN
dicating that there was more
birthstone about the pulpit than
was necessary to conduct an ordi-
nary service. The excited con-
gregation learned after a while
that the minister was on fire,
1t seems that he carried in his
pocket a lot of loose lucifer match.
es, and they ignited and set him
on fire. Assistance came and the
minister was put out. The whole
thing was ludicrous in the ex-
treme, and though the service was
continued, the solemnity of the au-
dience was not as marked as on
some other occasions.

This is an organization having
for its object the relief of Gen.

dollars is needed; and if it can be
raised the wife and children are
preserved at least from absolute
want. Ishana p. Dismukes, ESQ.,,

Preparing in Time.

We clip the following whole
some advice from the Richmond
(Va.) Enquirer, with the remark
that it might be well for the mu
nicipal authorities of Fayetteville
to heed the admonition:
In nearly every city in the
South the civil authorities are pre-
pairing against the advent Of dis
ease. Whether the apprehension
of the people are well founded Oh
not is no apology for neglect
Every city, town and village in the
country should be thoroughly sub
jjected to the most stringent sani.
tary regulations at once, and con.
tinually. 1t should also be the
imperative duty of the military
authorities to enforce similar reg
ulations in all freedmen's villages.
which have already, for weeks
past, been the sources of loath-
some disease, now prevailing in
many sections of the South. Ii
is time the authorities, civil and
military, were actually at work in
this matter. The spring is now
fully upon us. 1t will be crimi-
nal negligence longer to delay.

IA Singular Fact.

The Cincinnati Enquirer calls
attention to the singular fact that
the opposition to the Democracy,
which has always made it sub
ject of complaint, that SO many
of our Presidents were taken from
the South, has nominated none
but Southern born Presidents for
nearly forty years-that is, during
all the term Of the anti-slavery ag-
itation, when the complaint was
first heard. Thus, in 1882 they
nominated Henry Clay, Ken
tuckian, a native of Virginia, for
President. In 1886 they selected
VIM. H., Harrison, a scion of one
Of the first families of Virginia,
where he was born, for this office.
In 1910 they selected this Virgin
ian'again, and put up with him for
Vice President John Tyler, an
other Virginian. Tyler became
President. In 1914 they again
nominated the Virginian-Kentuck,
ian, Henry Clay, for President. In
lS48 they went to the extreme
South, and selected another son of
Virginia, General Taylor, as their
standard bearer. In 1852 they
again went to Virginia and select
ed another distinguished son of
that State, Gen. Winfield Scott,
for President, and they put with
him. for Vice President, Mr.. Ora
ham, of North Carolina. In 1856
they voted for John c. Fremont, a
South Carolinian by birth and a
Missourian by adoption and fami.
ly connection. In 1860 they elect
ed Abraham Lincoln, Kentuck-
ian, and in 1864 they reelected
him, and with him Andrew John
son, anative of North Carolina and
a resident of Tennessee, tor Vice
President. Thus we find the par
ty declaiming against the influence
! Of Southern men, and yet invaria-
bly, selecting Southern men by
birth and education for the high
est Offices of the country for nearly
forty years. During most Of the
time the Democracy have voted
| for Northern men like Van Buren,,
Cass, Pierce, Buchanan, Douglas
and Mcclellan.

4mparCiai IcSJlmony.
A Washington dispatch of the 9th
inst. to the Cincinnati Commercial
says:
sMr. Stephen Powers, who has
been eight months in the South as
correspondent for the Cincinnati
Commercial, testified to-day before
the Reconstruction Committee
respecting Florida, Louisiana, and
Texas. He thinks a great major
Iity of the people Of the South are
endeavoring, in good faith, to con-
duct themselves as loyal citizens
of the United States. The theory
of secession is dead. There are
not fifty respectable politicians in
the South who really believe in
! the constitutional right of a State
to secede.
"Those elected to Office by the
people are not the old fire-eating
secessionists, but moderate men,
who resisted secession to the last.
Ex-officers of the Rebel army are
elected, not simply because they
promoted the rebellion, but because
they are like Northern officers,
simply the best men in the coun.
try. He says the test oath ought
to be abolished, for the simple rea.
son that there is scarcely a re.
spectacle man in the South who
can take it. He says that the so.
called Union men of the South,
who remained therein after the
rebellion, are generally the most
contemplate politicians in the
South. Since the holidays the
negroes have gone to work with a
surprising unanimity, and are get.
ting fair wages in most cases. He
/. estimates that over one hundred
and fifty thousand of them have
rented little lots of ground, who
never did before. The planters
have become much more hopeful
in the last three months, and now
begin to acknowledge that free la
Dor will succeed" tx5r

The Position OF Union and
Confederate Soldiers in
Kentucky.

It is not generally known that
decision has been rendered by
the Kentucky Court of Appeals
which virtually prevents either
o Confederate or Union SOL
der from being prosecuted for acts
committed under orders of superb
or officers, but such is the case.
The following decision was render.
ed in the case Of the Common
wealth as. Holland, from Chris
tian county. The facts are sim.
ply these: Holland was indicted
by the Grand jury Of Christian
county for stealing some horses
which act he committed under the
orders of his superior officer, Gen.
eral S. B. Buckner, of the rebel
army, and upon being brought tc
trial, was discharged by Judge
Graham, Circuit Judge of Chris
tian county, on the ground that he
could not be punished for an
act committed under the or.
ders of his superiors, from which
opinion the Commonwealth ap
pealed.
Attorney General Harlan rep
resented the Commonwealth, and
Col. B. Ell. Bristow represented the
prisoner (Holland.) Judge Robert,
son delivered the opinion of the
Court: SGD
"The only judicial question
presented by this appeal from {
Judgment Of the Circuit Court

dict OF acqulttai ON an lnalctmen'
for robbery, when in county

ant citizens horses in conformity
with military authority, and il
execution of a military order, wa
not a criminal offense cognizable b.
the civil power Of this State, ant
on this question our opinion is tina
the act being belligerent in the lie
gal import Of that comprehen
sive term, it was not robbery il
the technical sense. Argument t
prove this would be superfuous
wherefore the judgment is affirm
ed"
This opinion was delivered OF
the 2lst day of September, 1864
and has just been published by tn
reporter, Duvall.
