Doctrines of the Democratic Fathers.

''The several States composing the United
States, are rot united on the principle of un-
limited submission to their General Govern
ment, but by compact, under the style and
title of Constitution for the United States,
and OF amendments thereto, they constituted
General Government for special purpoSe-
delegated to that Government certain def
mite powers, rcsSrviny, each State To itself,
the rcsidury mass of right To their sclf-gov-
ernment; and whenever the General Govern
ment assumes undelegated power, its acts are
unauthoritative, void, and of no force; TO
this compact each State accedcd as q State,
and is an integral party, its co-Statcs form
ing, - TO itself the other party; the Govern
laent- created by this compact was not made
The exclusive or final judge of the extent of
the powers delegated to itself since that
would have made its discretion, and not the
Constitution, the measure of its powers; but
~ In all other cases of compact among pow
er having no common judge, each party has
an equal right to judge for itself, as well of
ATTRACTIONS as of the mode and measure of
redress. ."-THoNAs JEFFERSON: 1895.

A YOUNG LADY AND Two CHILDREN
BURNED TO DEATH-FATAL HERolsM.-
Mr.. Phelps, of Comptiue township, has
lust given us all the particulars of the
most terrible and shocking affair that
ever occurred in this county. It seems
that tho house of Mr.. Howdyshell, near
Capt. Reynolds, in Comptine township,
being a story and q half frame building,
caught fire on Tuesday morning last,
Just before day, from, as 1t is supposed,
some ashes that had been carelessly left
in n shed part of tho building. Mr.. II.
was not at home, but the house was
occupied at the time by Mrs. H. and her
family, besides o young lady Of some
eighteen or twenty years, o sister OF
Mr.. HIS, named Carrie Howdyshell.
The house wal enveloped with flames
before its inmates were aroused. Mrs.
H. escaped, badly burned, with two
children, while tho young lady and two
of the children, aged respectively fivo
and three, persisted in the flames. Tho
noble girl lost her life in her heroic
efforts to save the children.
Their bodies were FINELY recovered
from the ruins, the children literally
burnt to m unacceptable mass, while
the young lady had both of her lower
limbs burnt of above tho knees, and
had one of her arms pulled out Of the
socket in extricating her body from the
debris.-Otumra (Iopa) Courier.

up and down during the night. The

Murder In Gsorsia-A Man Stripped and
Given SeYenty.dvo Lnshes.

UlNph 6bNCukysuNO 1Au1uoHs
From the Savannah Republican, January 24l
On Wednesday q bloody murder was
discovered to have been committed in
Efingham county. AS the tale is told,
on the Gath Of last month q white man,
entirely unknown and supposed to be q
foreigner, went to the cabin of q negro
near the Augusta road, seventeen miles
from the city, drew out the staple which
held the paddock and entered the place
and stole a half peck of ground peas.
He was caught by the owner of the
cabin, who, in company with three
others, stripped the man, then tied him
to o tree, and with o whip gave him
seventy. FIVE lashes upon his bare back
and thon turned him loose. Nothing
was said about the matter until Wcdnes-
day lust, when some negroes, who were
providing in the swamp, suddenly had
revealed to their gaze q sickening sight.
There in the swamp, up to that time
hidden from mortal sight, 10y the body
of n white manor rather the remains
of tho body. The flesh upon tho head
and part Of the body was eaten away.
The negroes gathered up what was left
of the body and carried It out Of the
swamp, and gave notice of their discov-
cry, and n coroner's jury was called to
investigate the matter. There were two
bullet wounds in tho hoad-one in tho
back part, the other in tho side. When
the negroes lifted the body up tho bull
let in the back part of tho head dropped
out. Tho body was found about a mile
from whore the whipping occurred.
There was just enough Of the flesh Of
the back still attached to the extremi-
ties of tho body for the marks to be
seen TINT led to the belief that the re-
mains werc those of the man who had
been whipped. There on the flesh were
plainly and distinctly visible the marks
Of the lash, the welts raised by the
blows struck by negroes. 1t is gen.
orally believed that it is the Same per-
son, and the natural conclusion is that
after tormcnting their victim these bar
barous savages terminated his exist
encc. A negro was arrested on suspi-
cion of having been concerned in the
matter and lodged in Jail in Springfield.

WHAT 1T Cosrs.-According to the
Annual Report of the Savage Mining
Company, for the fiscal year ending July
10, 1867, the cost of mining and milling
its ore averaged S2l %: By this 1t
will be seen that Blaisdel's law taxing
the proceeds of the mines does not ever
exempt the actual cost of mining and
reduction ; but it taxes a portion of the
actual outlay. Aud not satisfied with
this, His Intelligency would like to have
about thirty per cent. added to the tax
under the sctitious construction of law
that q dollar in currency is not a dollar
to liquidate n tax liability!

PETROLEUM AS FUEL.-We shall short
ly learn the result Of ON experiment,
whose success will work al astonishing
reform in tho maratime merchant ser
vice. Col Henry R. Foote of Boston,
who has devoted o large share OF his
lifc to demonstrating the eminent prac.
ticability and economy OF the use OF
LIQUID fuel as an agent, or substitute,
for coal in generating steam in marine
and other boilers, and showing that the
storage Of fuel in vessels may DO re-
duced at least ~two-thirds, is about to
make q trip from Boston to Now York,
in a steamer arranged upon his system,
and fed with the new fuel. The grand
revolution in the supply of motive power
must soon begin, and Col. Foote is de.
tcrmined, If possible, to be at the head
of it. The steamer on which the trials
is to be made is o neat, saucy craft,
called the Island City, built on the
| Clyde, and during the war a blockade
runner. The engine room, with no coal
dust to foul machinery, or choke the en-.
qiueers, is q curious spectacle. The oil
lot THIS nrSL Trip nus pOSh PAeSSN
tanks on either side of the boiler, hold
ing 1000 gallons each. These tanks
arc securely fastened to the sido OF tho
ship, and easily r~eplenishcd from above
by nm orifce in the deck. Col. Footc,
profting by his experience, has intro
duced some important improvements
into the retorts for vaporizing the oil
which, with the improved method Of in
PRODUCING air and steam, render COM
bustiou Of the elements more complete
than on the occasion of past expert
ments. Instead of employing eight fire.
men, and o number Of coal passers, as
is usual in steamers Of the size Of the
Island City, one man only can manage
the four necessary fires, run, or regu.
lated by stop cocks SO easily that q child
could do it. Experiments In various
places in Boston have amply proved the
utility of Col. Foote'S fuel in manufac-
turing establishments, and its applica-
ton to steam ERE engines is looked upon
with much favor. If the Island City
runs we'll to New York on her trial trip,
Col. Foote may look for large returns
from his long labor and hard earned ex-
porience.-Springfeld Mass. Republican

RAILROAD FREIGHrs.-As the Central
Pacific Railroad has been charging nj
teen dollars q ton freightfor a distance OF
n~inety-,hree miles-andas the California
Legislature is about reducing those en-
t~ortionate prices to nine cents per mile
per ton, we would state that the Reading
& Philadelphia Railroad charges just
t,ro cents per mile per ton. So says the
official report of the company.
