Dy the sword" has certainly proven trle
with this family.
Their career in this State from the
beginning, has been marked with blood
md difficulties with their fellowmen
and now is ended: The father four
years ago died by the hand OF violence.
The elder brother was killed last year
in an attempt to take the life Of his
brother in law. And Dick and Bob
have lust died in prison, where they
were awaiting trial by Military Commits
sion as accessory to their youngest
brother, flor the crime of murder,) who
is to-day d wandering criminal. having
escaped the hand Of justice. He will
doubtless soon follow and thus will be-
come extinct, a family who were calcu,
lated to be, and.might have been, good
and useful citizen and better members
Of society, had they chosen to live DIFF
ferently. -.
Since this was published the talrd
brother has been arrested in Texas.

FIRE-PRooFs FOR THE LADIES. =
An interesting item for the benefit of
wearers of crinoline; the process of
rendering the materials of ladies'
muslin dresses uninfammable is easily
understood. Either of three sub
stances--phosphate of ammonia,
tungstate of soda, and sulphate of
ammonia-can be mixed in the starch
and, at the cost of two cents dress,
deaths from burned garments can be
rendered impossible.
Articles of apparel subjected to
those agents can, if they burn at all,
only shoulder; and in no case can
they blaze up in the sudden and ter
rible manner i'll which so many fatal
accidents have occurred.

A considerable portion of the time
OF the last session of Congress was
occupied in preparations for solemn
lnquisition to determine whether the
State Governments of Kentucky and
Maryland are Republican in form.
This was done simply because they
had dared to give Democratic maiori-
ties. Now that Pennsylvania Sand
Ohio have done precisely the same
thing, a new Congressional Committed
will have to be raised, to inquire into
the genuine Republicanism of their
forms of Government. f -

The PROGRAMME IN NEW YORK. -
The radicals of New York city had u
grand ratification meeting or Wednes-
day night. Among other resolutions
adopted were the following:
"Resolred, That we congratulate
our whole country, and the friends
Of human liberty everywhere, on the
prospect of ON early, righteous, and
beneficent reconstruction of those
States of our Union so lately con-
vulsed by rebellion and devastated by
war; and we tender to the people of
those States our heartfelt congratu-
IaGions on their deliverance from the
scourge and shame of human bond
age.
"Resoloed, That we thank the Con-
gress of the United States for the
equity, frmness, and patriotic fore
sight with which it has so steadfastly
insisted that such reconstruction
should be so effected as to give the
loyal States and people ample secu-
rity against revival of slavery, in
fact or in substance, as we'll as against
new outbreak of causeless and ruin
GUS civil strife.
"Resolued, That we ardently desire
and will labor to secure the restora-
tion to self-government and repre-
sentation in Congress of the States
lately in arms against the Union, at
the earliest day consistent with the
sure maintenance of peace, order and
universal freadon, -
These resolutions are evidently
based upon the idea that the North
ern people are not satisfied with the
slow progress made in restoring the
Southern States to the Union. The
radicals understand that the voters
desire to see complete Union; and
they make pledges to meet the emer-
gency. Congress, too, will take the
same view, and will pass such laws as
will bring us into the Union before
the presidential election.

CoTroN. have been permitted
to make the following extract from q
letter received by one OF our mercan-
tile firms, dated Milledgeville, Ga,
October 10th: "The low price of cot
ton, though ruinous to us, will be
advantageous in certain results sure
to follow. The demand for negro
labor will not be so great; we will
have to hire for part of the crop, and
let cotton be the surplus. I shall pay
special attention to raising stock,
plenty of hogs, corn, rice, small
grain, make the plantation self-sus-
tanning, and then what I can in cot
ton. Then cotton crop is extra,
and what it brings we can keep in
our pockets. There will be vast
change in the planting system; heavy
manuring to make one acre bring its
bale. land lying out in pasture, where
stock can be raised and fed, plenty of
hogs, colts, cattle, sheep, &c"

has decided that in bankruptcy CT ses
the Federal courts have not the power
to restrain by injunction any action

which is almost universally worn by

\ The slaves in the interior of Libe-
rin, formerly held in subjection by
the native kings or chiefs, have re-
belled and obtained their freedom.
These kings were partly independent
of the Government, and their adhe-
rents outnumbered the civilized part
of the community by whom the
Government of Liberia was estab-
lished.
1t is reported that there is great
want of employment by the people of
Liberia. Many persons are sent
there, but no provision is made to
provide them with labor or capital
to carry on business. There are no
public works and no enterprises to
give them employment.

This is nearly 62 degrees beyond the

100 degrees, or one-third of the cir
cumference Of the globe. We cannot
say that "the sun never sets upon

The LATE ELECTIONS. The New
York Times says:
The Southern papers have really
at last got over their doleful dumps,
and got into u state of something like
exhilaration, in view of the late De-
mocratic successes. We hate to dash
their JOY in the least; but it may be
as we'll for them to beware of count
ing too much on the late elections.
They by no means prove that the
Democracy are going to sweep the
country next year, or anything of the
kind. They by no means prove that
the Republican party has collapsed,
or anything of the sort. They may
prove that the people of the North
are not prepared to endorse the revo-
lutionary schemes of the more violent
partizans in the last Congress; but
they do not prove that the South
will ever be reconstructed according
to the plans of the Copperhead De-
mocracy. If our Southern contem-
poraies cannot learn this by studying
the election returns, they will be
taught it by others yet to come.
