which prohibits the sailing Of foreign-buit
vessels under. the American flag. The pre-
dominating sentiment Of the principal speak
ers was that our shipping interests were ra-
pidly declining, and that the only remedy was
free trade. It was stated that in New Bruns-
wick the wooden part ofthe hull Of asaillng
vessel was built at $22 in gold per ton, while
on the opposite side Of the river In Maine the
the same thing in every respect would cost
$45, currency, and that the people could not
be expected to invest in shipping under such
circumstances. A committee Of five was ap-
pointed to draw up suitable m, norialto be
presented to Congress. To avp.d tho opposl-
ton Of the ship5uilderJ wlo 80 isi less the re-
peal Of this law would entirely rhin, it was
suggested that Congress should further re-
NIT the duty on all such shipbuildlng material
as has the full internal revenue tax imposed
upon it. -
: The baby market in New York is active,
iudging by the advertisements of that trade in
the city papers, which show demand and
supply of three or four dozen per week. The
adoption, or more literally the sale, Of inno-
cents has attained the dignity of o regular
business, supporting u number iof establish
ments and many private spectators. Strictly
speahiug,i it cannot be olassed as productive
industry, sinces the producersof OF the cornmodi-
tyodo not reap the profits, those belonging
entirely to the ''female physician" who pian-
ages the sale. The supply is obtained from
those mothers who have become sucn
'.outside the conventional rules" as Mrs.
Stanton phrases it, and the demand is found
among those whose means and circumstances
are favorable, but TO whom nature is not be-
nienant. The former are usually ANXIOUS to
DISPOSE OF their encumbrauoes, and the latter
to obtain such ornaments Of the household by
purchase if no other means are possible. And
in this they h I'VE the advantage Of wives osten-
sibly mere favored, since the baby mart allows
OF q wide selection. in which preferences as to
sex. complexion, s;ze and disposition may in
crest measure be consulted. Some pureha-
sers prefer brunettes, others blondes, and the
agents advertise their merchandise in assorted
parcels. Blondes rule highest at present,

One nightin November last, q deliberate
aud cowardly murder took place about
three miles from Laurensville. which, owing
to the blamsless character Of the victim, O.
we'll as the exceptionaIbrutality Of the deed,
sent thrill Of horror throughthe communi
ty of Lsurens and the adjoining counties.
DR.. E. Clinton Shell, g young physician of
the highest promise. while quietly ridiugfu
the public road, accompanied by three other
gentlemen. was suddenly fred upon by par
ties in ambush. DR.. Shell fell mortally
wounded. Although diligent search was at
once made for the murderers, no clue to
their identity could be obtained; and dsys,
and weeks, aud mouths elapsed, end the
crime remained still mystery. Early in
June, however, @ negro nam ID George
Simpson, in confidential talk with another
negro,s.confessed his participation in the
bloody deed, and revealed the oircum
stances under which it was committed. Ao
,rding to his Statement, tie party consist
ed Of ffteen blacks, who left the village
early in the night, and through fields and
by paths betook themseles to the point Of
rendezvous, which was ct the forks OF the
Greenville and Tumbling Shoals roads. Here
theylay in wait until Dr.. Shell and his friends
had reached that point, when the guns
were fred, with the result already stated.
AS it happened, this conversation was over
heard by respectable gentlemen, upon whose
testimony, oorroborated by strong oircum,
stantial evidence, Simpson was convio ed Of
murder in the first degree The jury in the
case was composed of whites aud blacks.
and their verdict was rendered after, only q
few muures' deliberatiou. The case, in
fact, was so clear that the prisoners coun-
sci scarcely attempted to disprove the
charge that Simpson WAS concerned in the
killing, but rested their defence upon the
plea that it was political assassination, and
not murder. Judge Veraon, who tried the
case, sentenced the prisoner to DO hung on
the third Friday in this month.
Since his conviction, Simpson has ontwo
occasions admitted that he was the party
that murdered DR. Shell. But the murder
or is coal black negro and Radical voter,
while his victim was highly respectable
aud inoffensive white man. Our readers,
therefore, will not be surprised to hear that
Simpson has been made the recipient Of the
clemeucy Of our model Governor Or Wed
nesday last, Hubbard. Soott's head con-
stable, appeared in Lsursnsville and carried
of the condemned man, the death penalty
having been commuted to nominal impris-
onneut for life. Should this black murder
or fail to be generously allowed to escape
q Ia Tolbert-from dursnoe vile, he may at
least count with ,oeadence upon receiving
3 full pardon in good season to cast vote
Ia. the next election.

FIRE IN DAvRSPORT.-T clothing store
of $. Simonson, on Second street, Daven-
port, was burned last night, and the proprie.
tor, his brother and clerk bad a narrow
escape from being burned with it. The fire
originated, Mr.. Simonson thinks, from a
stove in the rear end of the store. The fire
spread rapidly through the building. and
before stream of water could be brough,
TO bear upon the flames, the fire fepd had
completely Quilted the building, which was
three stories high, 24xlOO feet, and WINS
threatening the adj Mug stores. Forth

kept the flames as in furnace. Three

buildings. The store is owned By a gentle

A STRANGE CHARACTER.-Ihe following
Interesting facts about Kuemmel, the man
who killed Killion, appear in the Davenport
Gazette:
Kuemmol, the man who shot John c. killon,
last Friday night, although he did the act in
self-defence, hss b,en the victim of melancholy
ever since. He was in the army four years, saw
men killed by hundreds on several occasions, and
helped to do the killing himssli, yet the remem-
brsnce Of that night attack upon him and the
killing Of one Of his sssailants, fills MIN with
sorrow and gloom.
kuemBIel 10 homely man. His oountenance
10 dishgured by the almost total loss of his nose;
he has great mouth with lips that show oil his
large-siIe teeth. There is no indication of gs-
MUS Of any kind In his appearance or conversa-
ton, yet he possesses inventive genius Of good
order For mouths he has been ut work ON n
patent gun, the action Of which is entirely new in
the history Of small arms. Correspondence
found in his possession, letters from the Commits
sioner of Patents and the late Secretary Of Wur,
Mr. Rawlns, show that bis iVenton, SO far as he
has explained it, is regarded with favor He re-
fuses to let any body hsreabouts into his secret
except Gen. Ilodman, with whom he desire. TO
have an interview. He also had newly puIchHs-
ell 1raughtman's materials in his possession, and
said he had been studying the art for ZONE time
lie had made good progress, a. specimens OF
his skill showed.
Kuemmcl is bout to remove from this local..
ty, and will probably go to the Rast--somewhere
near the location of an nrmory. Threats Of ven
geance have been made against him by some Of
kiion's friends, and his presence else~ here
would probably he IKE mare prudent course. He

A TROJAN FARMER The most plucky
man we have heard of lately lives in Buffalo
Prairie. He is Familiarity known as Uncle
Danny Wheaton, and is well known to all old
residents. The way Uncle Daniel exhibited
his "clear grit" was this He was hauling
load Of corn to Andslusis q week or two
since when the roads we're in fearful con
dition. His wagon ran into a chuck hole
and pitched him over the side, his leg catch.
ing between the spokes Of the fore wheel as
be fell, and the force Of his fall extricatna
him from that position. But his leg was
severely fractured. Uncle Daniel not losing
his presence OF mind halooed his horses TO
stop, ~hich command, being we'll trained
plough horses, they obsyed. In his fall be
had thrown out several ears Of corn which
had market value. So Uncle Daniel
crswled around gathered them oil up threw
them in the wagon, and by a super human
effort 20, 10 himself and drove 10 a neigh

accident aud WAS unimported to allow them
TO take HIM in and send for q doctor. This
he would not agree to. 81 lay in my own
house to night said he. All | want is a
man to drive my horses" This was afforded
him, he arrived home, was taken in, a doc,
tor sent for and the limb set. All this time
he was suffering eIcruciatiug pain without
groan. When it is recollec;ed that "Cn
