THE IIAN-TRADE IN BOSTON.

From the old slaye-trading days to the
new Cooley importation; from the buying
off of quotas to a draft, to the buying up Of
venal Congressmen-the man-trade in Mas
sachusetts has been a favorite traffic. 1t
imported Belgians for recruits bought up
Carolina negroes for the same purpose; got
credit on its quota for a California regi-
ment; and managed to shirk the draft that
fell upon other States. 1t now shirks the
payment of its agents.
The case of Burrill as. the city of Boston
was, on Friday, decided by Judge Clifford
in favor of the defendant The ground OF
the defense was the illegally of the con-
tract, it being held that it was beyond the
city's authority to make it.
The suit was brought to recover 81, 900, =
600 for recruits furnished during the war,
and the plaintiff testified that he paid ST.
mon P. Hanscon $500 or $4,000 for lobby
ing services in Washington, and that he
gave him his bond in writing for the re-
mainder of $4,000. Other parties were
paid literally for their services. And the
assumption is that the large sum promised
was to pay for votes in Congress
Boston got the unjust credit on its quota,
by which it saved S., 100000, in the man
market, and now repudiates the transac-
ton. What makes this transaction more
conspicuous is that New England has re-
ceived millions from the Federal treasury
as fishing bounties. The fisheries were to
be the nursery of seamen, and a resource
in case Of war War comes, and the fish
ermen are counted only as deductions from
the draft.-ABaaU Ar0ls.

FEExTBLE STONE.

A great geological curiosity has just
been deposited in the museum Of the
Hartley Institution at Southampton, Eng
land, consisting Of piece Of flexible stone
about two feet long, seven inches wide and
more than one inch in thickness, having
the appearance Of rough sandstone, which
bends with a slight pressure like a piece
Of India rubber or gutta percha Of the
same size This interesting specimen
Of geology has been placed in a glass case
constructed for it, fitted with a lever, by
touching the key OF which on the outside
Of the case the fexibility Of the stone is
shown. 1t was presented to the Hartley
Institution by Mr.. Edward Cushen, from
his relative, Mr.. r. S Munden' who OBJ
tanned it from Delhi, India. In its natural
position the stone is said to run in thin
layers in the soil in which it is found, but
is so rare in India that it finds a place In
the museums at Calcutta. There IS a SINH
lar stone, but not so wide as the one IN
der notice, in the British Museum, and
another in the museum Of the School OF
Mines, but specimens are very rarely 10
be met with Although the stone has a
gritty appearance, no grit or dust IS
thrown of by the motion given to it when
under pressure.

NUMBER OF PERSONS EXCLUDED
FROM THE BENEFITS OF THE AM
NESTY PROCLAMATION.
Ernm ~ Nniinnal IntnlIIronoar-

From the National iutGllIsenceT
The Northern papers are specializing
about the number of persons excepted by
the recent amnesty proclamation of the
President, Upon inquiry, we ind that
there is no satisfactory data upon which
TO found definite calculation; buta reason
able conjecture may be yentured. Ia the
first place. the President and Vice Presi-
dent. (Messrs. Davis and Stephens and
the heads Of departments Of the Con-
federate government, are unequivocally
excluded. OF the latter we learn that
there were, from first to last, thirteen in
all. of whom FIVE have been specially par
doned atthe instance Of distinguished Rad
icals-namely, Messrs. Reagan, Memmin-
ger, Mallory, Trenholm and Davis, the
latter appointed Attorney General near
the close of the var, About twenty Gov
errors of States, also expressly excluded,
remain unpardoned. Five Generals
namely. Lee Cooper, Johnston, Beaure-
gard and Bragg-ten Lieutenant Gen
erals and about thirty Major-GeE-
erals. are excluded from amnesty
by the express terms Of the proclamation,
and remain unpardoned individually. If
the language employed in the proclamation,
however. shall be held to include Briga-
diers with the brevet rank Of Major Cen
eral, the number Of the military exclusions
will be largely increased-probably 10 the
extent Of several hundred. There were
but three Admirals in the Confederate navy
one OF whom Forrest is now dead-and
no rank between that Of Admiral and Cap
tain existed. The persons designated as
agents of the Confederate government
in foreign States and countries will reach,
perhaps, two hundred, if it shall be held
to embrace other than those accredited 10
governments abroad, as it doubtless will, there
being no other construction which would
admit OF excluding particularly obnoxious
persons without specially naming them.
| We take 1t for granted, however, that in
the mass Of these cases special pardons will
now be granted upon application, as a mat
ter of course. The above comprehend all
those excluded Of the first class, and they
will not probably number practically over
one hundred, if so many.

longing 10 the second and third classes

STATE NEWS

The directors Of the Williamson County
Agricultural Society have resolved to hold
Fair, commencing on the 10th of Octo-
ber and continuing three days. Steps are
taking to make it a suitable and successful
revival of highly interesting and useful
exhibitions Of the dnte-war period.
The Murfreesboro Monitor Of this date
says On Saturday morning last three col
ored prisoners confined in the Jail made
their escape by knocking the TAILOR down
while he was waiting on them. They were,
however, soon caught and brought back,
getting but little liberty for their trouble.
Mr.. Willeford, the Tailor, was seriously
hurt, and is now lying at the point ofdeath.
He fired at them three times, but failed to
hit any Of them.
The cornerstone Of a new Presbyte-
rian church was laid at Murfreesboro on
Tuesday last, the Masons officiating.
49, OF the recent homicide at Bellbuckle,
noticed a day or two ago, the Shelbyville
Republican, Of yesterday, gives the follow
ing details: James Hoover and a man by
the name of McEwen, met at Bellbuckle
last Saturday, and alter few drinks of
mean whisky, got into a quarrel about the
pitiful sum of fifty cents, due from McEwen
10 Hoover. Hoover showing fight, and
McEwen being a small man and not dis
posed to encounter him, left the place they
we're at and went of. A short time after
wards McEwen was seen to enter the store
of Mr.. Blair with whom he had business
in the back room. He had not been in the
house long until Hoover came upon him
and commenced pummeling him with what
ever he could get his hands upon. During
the scutile McEwen stabbed his assailant
with pen-kniie near heregionof the heart,
causing almost instant death. McEwen left
at once and has not been heard of since

Necessity.
From the Pulaski Citizen, Sept y.
We have been acquainted with the board
ing house troubles of this "ostracised" pet
Of the Press and Times from the first, and
although he has frequently rendered him
| self so odious that he could not be retained
at either Of the many boarding houses into
which he has been admitted, yet we, as the
reporter for a public journal, have not
thought it incumbent upon us to enter into
an exposition of the facts and circumstances
connected with each case, and have hereto
fore studionsly avoided mentioning the sub
iect. We have never noticed Capt. Judd in
these columns except in connection with
some of his official or public actions. He
very well knew this when he made the re-
mark the other day, after being turned Off
from his last boarding place, that he
''wouldn't mind it if it wasn't that Frank
McCord would get hold of il and make
big blow" He had no right to suppose that
we would ever refer to the matter. We had
said nothing about his outrageous conduct
at former boarding place, when he cursed
the tandlddy and euen tad Uiolent hands on
her, Tearing The black prints Of his bralray
fingers upon heT person. We should not refer
to this business now if it hadn't become
matter of notoriety and official inquiry.
Captain Walsh, the Sub-Assistant Com
missioner of this district came down last
Tuesday night to investigate the matter,
and look up boarding place for Judd.
He went to Mayor Balentine and inquired
Nv IL hot J. sl Of L..
tanned in this town. The Mayor told him
that was a private matter which he hadn't
felt it his duty 10 investigate, and could
not enlighten him. The Sub-Assistant
Commissioner then asked the Mayor what
was the difference between Mr.. Frances
McCord and Captain Judd" The Mayor
DIDN'T know there was any misunderstood
ing between us. Captain Judd and ourself
never passed a harsh word. In fact we
don't pass words at all. Who informed the
Commissioner that there was any difference
between u.s. There is a marked difference
between US in one sense, and we hope by
the grace Of God 10 preserve il, but this
doesn't concern the Bureau Department.
Capt Walsh was informed at another
boarding house that if Capt. Judd was re-
ceived all the rest Of the boarders would
quit the house. The Captain then called
on the proprietor of the last house that
Judd was dismissed from, and demanded
to know why he had been turned out He
was promptly informed that it was none Of
his business, and was peremptorily iagito3
ont of the house.
The Commissioner left without pro-
curing a boarding place for Judd, but said
tt0t 1t anas military necessity TOR him to re.
main here, and that he uould hare TO press a
boarding house for him. Wonder if Judd
will accept boarding house under such
circumstances 2

The second, that is, those who are charge
able with treating prisoners improperly,
have been either tried and convicted or
acquitted, or are held to bail, and are, con-
sequently, included in the third. 1t is safe,
therefore, if this supposition be correct, to
infer that but few will be excluded under

the applications for special pardon now on

believed that the entire number of the
