ALL THE INTELLIGENCE AND MORALITY

ALL THE INTELLIGENCE AND MORALITY.
I'm Massachusetts, they professionally, (but
not practically regulate the employment of
children who work in factories by law; and
officers are appointed to See that this law is
strictly enforced Now, from the interest
which Massachusetts takes in the moral and
intellectual culture of the black children of
other States, one would think that no law
would be necessary to compel the people of
that sauctimonious Commonwealth to treat
her white children nearly as well as she de-
mands that the former slave States shall treat
their negro children. BUTT is far otherwise;
for, Notwithstanding their hypocritical pro-
LESSONS of morality, religion, and philanthro-
ply, they suffer the poor white children who
labor in the factories to be treated worse
than it was ever the habit of the STAKEHOLDER
to treat his slaves. Strange as this may seem,
it is nevertheless true, as the report from the
office established for the purpose of seeing to
this matter shows The agents report
that the result of their examinations
prove, that as rule these poor and helpless
children are only regarded by the manufac-
turing nabobs who employ them as they re-
gard their machinery and horses The re-
port TO which we refer says:
In Fall river he found one thousand child
rem employed i'll factories, mostly of foreign
parentage in generally low condition, ig-
norant in many cases oftheir own ages, earn
ing very low wages and deprived in great
part or all together, of the school privileges
which the law requires. To illustrate the
spirit of some of the employers, the officer in
quired of the agent of one of the PRINCIPAL
factories, whether it was the custom to do
anything for the physical, intellectual or NOR
al welfare of the work people, The answer
would not have been out Of place in the mas
ter OF plantations, or captain of q coolie
ship: I'VE never do; as for myself, regard
my machinery so long as they can do my
work for what l choose to pay them, keep
them, and get out of them all can What
they do, or how they fare, outside ofmy walls
do not know. They must look out for
themselves, as | do for myself When nv
machinery gets old and useless, reject it and
get new and these people are part of my
machinery"
Another agent in another part of the State
replied to similar question, "that he used
his mill hands as he used his horse; as long
as he was in good condition and rendered
good service, he treated him well; otherwise
he got rid of him as soon as he could, and
what became of him afterwards was no af-
fair of his" That man the report says had
upwards of one hundred children in his en-
ployment, most Of whom had never attended
school: These are cases of exceptional hard
ship; but in the majority of establishments it
is believed that by the connivance ofparents
and employers, the law is violated at least
in some OF its parts, to most fearful ex-
tent.

ROBBERY AT HAyRE DE GRACE.--On
Tuesday night last the hotel of Mr.. James
Nixon, at Havre de Grace was entered and
robbed of a number of articles, the value and
description of which we did not learn
Among tho goods taken, however, was car
pet bag, which had been left for safe keeping
by some unknown person some days before
and which was called for and payment for its
loss demanded few days after the robbery.
But on being refused by Mr.. Nixon, the party
making the demand left and has not since re-
turned. On the same night the store of Mr..
Israel Allen was also entered and his money
drawer and its contents taken In this, as in
the case of Mr.. Nixon, we are not informed
of the extent of the robbery or any of the cir
cumstances surrounding it.

FIRE-On Friday last, about the middle of
the day, the dwelling of Mr.. Hugh Corrigan,
living near Sandy Hook, in this county,
caught fire and was totally destroyed, to-
gether with his meat house and its contents
Mr.. Corrigan's loss, we are informed, is quite
heavy, as but little furniture and small
quantity of wearing apparel were saved
The property was partially insured in the
Hartford Mutual Fire Insurance Company,
and the loss to said Company in consequence
is said to be about nine hundred dollars The
fire originated from foul chimney, which
took fire, some of the sparks from which set
the roof on fire, and the building being frame
and very dry the fire could not be managed.

SUDDEN DEATH.-On Saturday last, Mr..
Chas. E. MARYLAND diedvery suddenly at the
hotel of Mr. Glenn, in this place. Mr. Mark
land came to town about an hour before
his death for the purpose of taking out his
commission as Justice of the peace, in which
capacity he has acted with few short inter-
walls, for the last thirty years. On his arrival,
in apparent good health, he went immediate
iy to the clerks office and, after qualifying as
magistrate, walked across the street to Mr.
Glenn's, where he died in fifteen or twenty
minutes after entering the house. Mr. Mark
land was in the sixty-ninth year of his age,
and was native of the Eastern shore of this
State, but for some years resided in the city
of Baltimore, previous to his removal to this
county some forty years ago. He at one
time was engaged in the mercantile business
at Darlington, but for many years back he
has been principally engaged in school teach
ing and performing the duties ofjustice ofthe
peace, with which, from long experience, he
had become quite familiar. Hewas man of
mild and aniiable disposition, and as conse-
quence, had few or no enemies. In early life
he attached himself to the Methodist Episco-
pal Church, and remained an active and eff
cient member up to the time of his death
The immediate cause of his death is not
known, but as he complained of great uneasi-
ness about the heart q few minutes before
his death, heart disease may have been the
cause. DR.. VIM. s. Richardson was called
Immediately on his being attacked, and, al
though near at hand, the patient died before
the Doctor reached his room.

HI The MURDER OF D1xoN.--The AUalanche-
/ Of last Saturday gives the particulars of the,
late Indian outrage on the Humboldt road, be-.
tween Sheep Ranch and Inskip's, Of the shoot
ing Of David Smith and David Wooden, and
the murder of Nathan Dixon. The savages.
first attacked:a. team in. which III. Eastman
and Ben. Abbott, two citizens of Owyhee, and
David Smith and David Wooden, were re-
turning from winter sojourn in California.
At narrow pass in the road, the Indians sud-
denly fred upon them. Smith was severely
wounded by ball which entered near the
right breast and passed out of the side An,
other bullet creased Wooden's neck. By good
use Of their Henry and Spencer rifles. and
rapidly driving away, the party escaped further
injury. About an hour after this the stage
came along. There were ten passengers, one
a lady, and Dixon was driving, with j.. W..
Patton, passenger on the seat beside him.
When in the pass the stage was fred on by
the Indians, and Dixon was instantly killed A
ball creased the nostril of one of the lead
horses, and the team sprang sideways from
the road. Patton had seized the reins the mo-.
ment Dixon was shot. AS the horses sprang
the stage struck rock, the wheel crashed,
and all was at stand still. The passengers
jumped out, loaded their rifles. and fired upon
the saEages in sight, who clambered up the
steep hill and reached safe retreats behind
rocks One of them left his ramrod and hat
near the place of attack. A wagon was got at
Inskip's, and the next day the passengers
reached Silver City. Dixon was driving on
the fatal day for another driver, his own route
being the one further back; he declined the
usual escort of soldiers over the road, and
drove back guard dog which always runs
just ahead of the stage on that route to hunt
out ambushed savages. He saw the passen-
gers so well armed that he had no fear of In.
dians. He seemed to have rejected the very
means which would almost surely have saved
his life. He was native of Indiana. and went,
from Iowa to California in 1853. He lived in
Suisun Valley till 1864, when he came to Boise.
Basin, and stayed in the Basin until two years
ago, when he took employ with Hill Beachey,
and had driven stage for him until the moment
of his death. He was about 35 years of age,
and general favorite wherever known. The
citizens of Silver City gave his remains appro-
