A BUTCHERTowN SHOOTING AFFRAY.-
SAll Butchertown was in q state of excite
ment on Sunday last over shooting affray
which took place between two negroes
known as Nat Cosby and cambridge Gillett,
resulting in the mortal wounding Of the
latter. An unfaitbful wife was st the bot
tom of the difficulty. For some time past
Gillett has had reason to suspect his Mary
of q criminal intimacy with Cosby, and on
Saturday night at about IL o'clock the gull
ty pair were found together under suspi-
cious circumstances. High words passed,
and presently Cosby drew a pistol and shot
twice. One of the balls lodged in Gillett's
abdomen, inficting wound which the at
tending surgeon pronounces likely to result
in death.
Yesterday morning Cosby was before the
police court to answer for the felony, and
Mary as an accomplice. The woman was
discharged, and the case of Cosby continued,
on motion of the accused.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE-HoRsEs AND MULES
BURNED TO DEATH. AT about. / O'Clock
Sunday morning "a FIRE broke out in the
stable corner of Pear and Cary streets,
owned by a. s. Lee and rented by Captain
A. B. Lamkin. Despite the exertions of
the Fire Brigade, the building was totally
consumed, and with it ten horses and FIVE
mules valued at $4,000, harness and
wagons valued at $1,000, besides other pro-
perty estimated to be worth 50 900. No
insurance. The fire was the work of in
cendiaries. A policeman on duty in the
neighborhood saw two men going away from
the spot just as the flames burst forth, and
discharged all the barrels of his revolver at
them, but without effect. :" - +
Two of the mules belonged to Mr.. W. T.
Westwood and one to; Colonel Albert Ord
way; the others belonged to Captain Lam
kin. The blocks and falls, worth, proba-
bly,, over $4,000, and the property Of the
latter gentleman, were, fortunately, saved.

The Alabama Memorial.

The petition from the Conservatives ofAla-
bama to Congress is well timed and well put.
It is eloquent with truth as well as rhetoric.
The hostile measures of Congress in pitting
one race against another, and in throwing
the influence of the government in the scale
of that race which is in the minority, and
is, to say the least, wholly unacquainted
with the obligations and duties of citizen
ship, has already ruined the South. And
it is Congress which prevents the repairing
of the ruin, postponing the recuperation of
industry and order. We can do nothing to
save ourselves, but appeal to the justice and
magnanimity of those whose resistless
power now oppresses US. 1t twas, therefore,
we'll that Alabama should petition.
The memorial, ho, ever, would have been
more to our mind had it been little more
manly. We have not given up, for our part,
the hope Of better days. We are not pre-
pared to utter such despairing cries as "the
groans OF the Britons." Give US fair
chance, gentlemen of Congress, and we will
soon ceaye 10 require your bounty and dis
turb you with importunste petitions. Give
US Just ga living chance" and we can do
something for ourselves and something for
our country.

pray for the restoration Of the person who is
i'll, give him glass of grog, and "leaye the
matter in the Lords hands" Recently "Pe-
culia. baby" aged fourteen months. was seized
with inflammation of the lungs. The elders OF
the sect were called in, and they anointed the
child, gave it brandy and water, and prayed
over it, but did not call in doctor. The Pc
culiar baby" died, as might have been expect
ed, under this treatment; IN inquest was held
over its body, and the jury returned verdict
of manslaughter against its parents. Two
members Of the sect explained that the coroner
in Essex, where good many Peculiar babies"
died under similar circumstances, had decided
that when the parents believed sincerely in the
Lord, it was not mauslaughter; but the coro-
ner IN this case said that he believed the age
for miracles is past, and that whenever case
of the kind comes before him, he shall send
the parents to Newgate.

The WELL KNOWN English axiom "the
King can do no wrong" is the expression of
the doctrine that, according to tho consti-
tuition, the King is supreme and beyond the
reach of trial or condemnation. But no
wrong in government must be beyond re-
dress, as many wrongs would be if the King
were admitted to be capable of wrong
Therefore, all wrongs are laid not upon the
King but upon his agents, whom he may
command but cannot force to be unjust,
tyrannicsl or oppressive. In the words of Dr.
JOHNSON, "P Political institutions are formed
upon the consideration of what will most
frequently tend to the good of the whole,
although now and then exceptions occur.
Thus, it is better in general that nation
should have q supreme legislative power,
although it may at times be abused. And
then there is this consideration that, if the
abuse be enormous, nature will rise up, and,
claiming her original rights, overturn a
corrupt political system"
In the United States the legislative de-
partment is supreme, the abuses are enor-
nous, the agents of wrong are Immediately
responsible to the people. When shall come
the new uprising and the downfall of COR
rupt political system

The Penttentinry.

In the convention, yesterday, resolu-
tion was offered requesting General CANDY
to remove Major 7. B. LEE, the present Su-
perintendent of the South Carolina Peni
tentiary, and to appoint in his place W. B.
ROSE, a delegate from York District. We
trust that no such change will be made.
General CANDY has thus for promptly re-
cognized all the claims made by the con-
vention upon his authority; but in this
instance we doubt whether he will consent
to lend the aid of his almost unlimited
power in furthering the individual likes or
dislikes of few individuals whose only
claim upon his consideration is their men,
bership of the Reconstruction Convention.
Major T. B. LEE is an appointee not Of
the State, but of the Executive. He is an
accomplished engineer, man of piety, hu-
manity, and high-toned feelings. He has
ra sed an institution from the bare ground
with means that would have disheartened
ordinary men, and Mt time when the fates
seemed opposed to the undertaking, and in
less than one year has made that institu-
ton subject of pride for the State, and,
as far as it has been developed, model of
excellence in its management. If there
are two hundred convicts within its walls,
if punishments are inflicted for the purpose
of preserving order, if discipline is en-
forced and prisoners are taught the atone
ment they owe to the community for their
crimes, the fault is not his; and we trust
that General CANBy will hesitate long be-
fore he permits the demoralizing influences
of the hour to undermine the department
of the civil government that more than any
other requires especial protection from the
military authorities.
There is scarcely another man in the
State who combines more practical and
theoretical knowledge of the work he has
undertaken than Major LEE, and to remove
him from the position at this time would be
to consign the enterprise to hopeless ruin.
