Habeas Corpus 1t appears that LIZARD l.
Co., merchants of London, entrusted large
consignmcnts of goods to Messrs.- CAMPBELL &
-PERcIyAL, of Liverpool, for sale. Messrs.
]. & CO., charge that PERc1vAL sold some of
these goods Mt sacrifice, and pawned tho rest
at their full value, and left England with the
proceeds, amounting to about 100000. All
this is yehemently deuitd by PERcIvAL.
The history of the case is this The plain
tiffs brought nn action in case against the said
PERcIvAL, and he was arrested, in default of
bail te the amount Of 100000. and held in

A Specimen OF Female Lobbying.


| [Prom the Washington Correspondence of the
Charleston Mercury.l
The system of lobbying claims and
bills through Congress has been shown
up so often by newspaper correspond
ents, that there is little left tOwrite
about in that way. cannot forbear,
however, to notice very extraordinary
case that came under my observation
during the last session.
A certain party had claim for some
thing like $500, 200. 1t had been hang
ing on for several years, vibrating be-
tween the House and the Senate, with
so little prospect of ever getting sue
cessfully thorough both at thesame ses-
sion, that the claimant almost despair
ed of any relief. Taking hint, how
ever, in q lucky moment, from the ex-
ample of party similarly situated, he
repaired to one of the larger cities, and
in due course of time he found an inter
esting looking young lady, who under
took the job of getting the bill safely
through, for contingent fee and some
little necessary money in the mean
time. This modest proposition was,
of course, accepted, and the twain
returned to Washington, and the agent
set to work to accomplish the object OF
her mission. She was observed nearly
every day in the gallery of one house or
the other, paying no attention to those
around her, but watching very closely
the proceedings on the floor. In a short
time the bill was taken up and passed
by the Senate. 1t fingered in the House
awhile, and one day when nobody was
thinking anything about it, Mr..
moved to proceed to its consideration.
This was agreed to and in very few
minutes the measure was adopted. This
was all that was necessary. The young
lady had done her work, and / believe is
now in the. enjoyment of her hard earn
ings.

Letters from the People.



Editor Of the Register s4 .-s.f
Profound feelings of regret at
the small interest which is taken by
the living in Mount Wood Cemetery
have prompted this communication.
A few faithful persons have been hold
ing meetings at the Court House for
three weeks; and, though the public
newspapers have been calling upon
those interested to attend these meet
ings in order to devise ways and means
of carrying ont measures for the better
protection of the grounds, and of max
ing easier access to said Cemetery, yet
but few attend or manifest any interest
in those who, when living, were near
and dear to them, as though
they themselves never expected to
die, or would require their friends to
perform the same services over their
bodies after death, rs have already been
performed over those who were once
their near and kind relations and
friends. The man that would refuse
pecuniary aid, if able, to make a liber-
al subscription to this object is unwor-
thy of the right of o decent Christian
burial. There is nothing that can be
conceived of inhuman actions more
heathenish than to allow our deceased
friends to be exposed in our cemeteries
to the beasts of the field, and costly mon
umcnts and tomb stones to be broken
to atoms. There are many people in
this, world who would rather spend
thousands in luxury and fashion, and
perhaps the very means which they use
for that purpose has been derived from
some near friend who left 1t to them,
and yet not care for them or their re-
mains after death. Shame on all such
human beings in the image of Him who
created them. Cemeteries are the great
cities of the dead. Holy consecrated
ground! An imperative duty is re-
quired Of the living to protect, beauti-
fy, and keep them In good order and
condition, so that the living when called
upon to perform the last rite for some
dear friend, may view the ground, beau
tiful and adorned, where they must
shortly lie. ar' MOUNT-WOOD.
