red to the condition of things which made it
necessary to pass the law of 1867. For
some time after the surrender at Appomattox
there were but few acts of maligHity in Vir-
ginia. He thanked God that Virginia,
which did more than any other State to up
hold the rebellion by the points of her bayo-
nets, had shown lass malignity and vidictive-
ness than any Of the ten rebellious States.
lie referred to the alleged murders # Union
men in other States, and said that acts of this
kind led to the passage of the act Of 1867.
The habeas corpus act Of 1867 was passed
with express reference to the fourteenth ar
tlclc Of the constitution, and in view of the
adoption of the amendment by the States
and that act scattered to the four winds of
heaven the decisions Of courts and Judges in
regard to the acts of de- facfo judges who
have held their offices since the adoption Of
the constitutional amendment. Under the
act of Congress the petitioner had the right
to deny the facts set forth in the return, and
to adduce testimony to prove his denial He
read the third section of the / 18th article and
proceeded to argue that Fl. W. Shelley was
disqualified from holding the Office of Judge
by that article. The journals Of the House
of Delegates for 1870 80 and 1861 $50 were
adduced to show Judge Shelley had taken
the oaths referred to in the section read, and
that be gave aid and comfort to the rebellion
by voting for bills making appropriations for

Editor Of the Southern Opinion. was shot
and killed, at 10 O'Clock this morning, by
James Grant Pollard had just aiighted from
vehicle when Grant fred from an opposite
window, instantly killing him. The cause
wasa publication in the Southern Opinion
affecting the character of members Of Grants
family
The member of the family mentioned was
Miss Mary Grant, whose name was connect
ed, disreputably, in an article in the South
ern Opinion, with a young man named
Horace Ford. After detailing the flight
of Miss Grant and Ford the article concludes
as follows:
The upshot Of the matter is, to make
long story short, that Miss Mary has been
heard from that she is now in Philadel-
phia, and that up on the whole, there is a
sorry family history connected with the very
case, which it is not within our province to
reveal y
Grant was arrested, very soon after the
murder, in the upper room Of the house
opposite. The Coroncrs inquest assembled
but adjourned over to hear further evidence.

WASHINGTON. Nov. IS. 1868.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Is, 1868.
"A distinguished Radical Senator, who ar
llVed in this city last evening, says that the
ID a now becoming so prevalent Of General
Grants conservative views Will prove delu-
slye- He bases this declaration upon his
knowledge Of Grants political faith, as de-
rived from the General immediately after his
nomination by the Chicago Convention
Among other things he says Grant emphati-
cally declared TO him full endorsement of
negro suffrage, enforced. if necessary, by
Congressional action. Ia protractad con
vcrsation on the subject between the Gener-
al and . number OF Radical Congressman
he said he had at one time opposed extend
ing the right of franchisement to freedmen
but that his views had undergone radical
change on that question, and that he now re-
garded it as essentially necessary for their
protection that they should be armed with
the ballot This Senator further says, that
during the latter portion of the last session
OF Congress Grant was in the lead of all
Radical measures, and favored the most
radical method of executing the several re-
construction acts. Hence he laughs at the
idea that Grants inaugural will lay out con-
servative policy for his administration, I'M
less an administration Of the laws. as exacted
and understood by the Radical party, be con.
sidered conservative. Our Senatorial infor-
mant further stated that General Grant had
no doubt fixed upon the whole Of his Cabi-
net, excepta Secretary Of the Treasury, and
upon this he would probably decide while in
New York. He thinks Mr.. Motley, late
Minister to Austria, will be rendered the

Burning Of the Ohio LnRatic Asylum Excl.
ting and Thrilling Scenes.

The Columbus (Ohio) Statesman gives
full particulars of the burning of the Luna
tic Asylum in that city few nights ago
We copy the following:
ACTION OF THE DEMENTED FEMALE INMATES
The major portion of the inmates had not
retired when the fire broke out, but in the
ward where the fire originated were some Of
the most mischievous, and some sick ones. -
All efforts to induce these to leave their
rooms were unayailing, and the few citizens
who had reached the place, and the atten-
dants, were obliged, at the risk other own
lives, to rush in and drag them from tIle
horrible fate that awaited them The roar
of the flames, and rolling clouds of smoke,
now black as night and again Lit with lu-
rid glare; the cries, screams shouts, laugh
ter and dancing of the demented women,
whose madness seemed increased by the wild
and exciting scenes around them, made up
picture terrible to look upon.
By-and-by came word that some were dy-
ing in their rooms, suffocated in the smoke,
and others ravlng and struggling to free
themselves from their confinement Then
some of our heroic citizens rushed into the
flames and dragged forth the dead and the
dying. Some were dead when reached ; 9TH
ers died shortly after coming to the fresh air
One poor creature, beautiful girl of about
eighteen, whose arms we're confined because
of her mischievous propensities, on being
brought out called piteously for her mother,
and died with the prayer On her lips that
she might be allowed to lay her head upon
her mothers breast, it pains me- So"
she said. There were six OF the female pa
tents who died of sutfocation and inhalation
of the flames.

Late New Orleans newspapers say that
the prospects for lively season are promis
ing. It is announced that about 1901
bales of cotton have been received at that
port against 40 900 at the same period last
year. One Of the New Orleans journals
adds; This cotton sells readily at about
800 per bale, which is two and a half as
much as cotton commanded before the war
Thus. if we receive this season 500, 900
bales, the money value will exceed that of
the two millions which came to our city III
the ante bellufn times In ether words.
there will be $50, 900, 0G0 which must
change hands in the transactions in this sin
gle product of our soil. The diffusion Of this,
or al least large portion Of it, among tihe
various trades, must give stimulus to our
commerce, and dissipate that languor and
dependency which have long hung over
commercial circles.
81 But besides the cotton. our cane crop
which is EXCLUSIVELY of our own State, must
add some twelve millions to the amount Of
products which will be brought to this mar
ket. The cane has turned out we'll, and is
now yielding finely, On some of the plan
tations the yield has get back to the old boast
of our planters of two hogsheads to thu aeFa.
All our sugar planters will come out ahead
this season. TO these two great staples we
trust to add largely increased receipts Of
grain, tobacco and pork. Despite, there
fore, all our disasters aud drawbacks, We
have no reason to be discouraged in regard
to the present season in New Orleans. We
anticipate indeed, great life, an active trade,
and plethora Of money in our city,

Letting aid for the Liberian College, that
the Republic Of Liberia gives its sanction to
negro slavery, in this wise Numbering on
ly eighteen thousand elnigrant negroes from
America, it has made conquests Of the inter

ton to six hundred thousand. and now per-
mits and recognizes slavery among those
tribes. President Roberts admits that the
we#lth of the interior chiefs, like that of the
savage tribes, is measured by the number of
their wives and slavecs.
This intelligence has sunk deep into the
the humane heart of the New York Tribune
That paper says: 1T is a sin ular and at
rocious fact. It adds Efficient steps should
be taken to rescue Liberia from this lapse in

well for those who are solicited in the name

ibe to hold an engine up to speed when driving
the heavy load, and when steam flows slowly
through the valve, and the governor action (Which
opens the valve) is reduced to the least amount
These two reductions call for the greatest width
attainabe at the base Of the steam port other
wise the engine chokes and staggers under less
than its whole load.
Many Governors and Valves, now advertised as
great Improvements, have not more than or s
inches width Of steam port at the base and there
by fall where the JuDsoN VALVES have 10 to "a,
giving from fifteen to twenty per cent more pow
er to the engine when most wanted
Persons building or using Steam Engines, Will
do well to apply their own common sense in choos-
ing governors that will not rob their engines of
power, and depreciate their value more than the
cost OF a Judson Governor, the patented principle
of which gives 100 per cent. ofpower and conse-
quently the most uniform speed possible to obtain,
which is demonstrated by the universally admit
ted fact Of its great superiority all others the
past seventeen years. 1t is simply impossible to
govern well without graduation Of the steam port
