a FLYING MACHINE The vclucipcdc has
a rival, an officer in the army in Egypt having
lately invented flying machine by which
strong man can soar like an eagle to the
clouds. 1t consists of two immense wings
made of isingla $, moved by two ropes secured
to the heels. The man wishing to fly starts to
run on level ground and after running few
yards finds himself carried into the air. and
has only to keep up the running motion in
definitely to be an ACCOMPLISHED fyist. 1t is
said to be a perfect success. The inventor
fell and was nearly killed the first attempt,
but it was not good day for flying.

PRINTING OFFIcE.-The old Government
printing house has been emptied, and yester-
day was turned over TO Mr.. Osborne for de-
molition. 1t is to give way, to 4 new and
slightly stone building of three stories, inten-
ded for the Post Office, and Gazette.
The old building was put up by Govern
ment in 1896 during the administration of
DIR. Judd, and has been used ever since as a
printing Office. Built roughly of coral, IL
has never been slightly editice, though a
serviceable one 1t has of late years shown
signs of unsafeness, in cracked, and bullying
walls, and it is certainly wise proceeding
to take it down entirely. The Riyuesi0n for
many years, weekly issued from its press-room

really present such Il case as TO bring il with
ia this rules And am J. as Il committing
magistrate. required or warranted in sending
il mp for rial by jury? If should do 50,
| must close my eyes against the force and
effect of a past good name and irreproacha-
bile reputation, as circumstances too trivial to
he wcirhrd against such evidence as has been
adduced. however impure the source from
whence it flows. The innate sense Of justice
revolts against such propos ition, for II is
no less true in law than in ethics, that good
character always, land more especially when
thrown into the scale for the first time, } is
considered and treated as powerful element
to outweigh feebly sustained evidence of
criminality.
II is laid down in a note in 2 Arch. Grim.
Prac p. 403, that "the better opinion seems
TO be that the presumption arising from mere
possession (of stolen property is completely
removed By the good character alone of the
prisoner and all the authorities concur in
placing very high estimate of its value and
importance in all cases where the question
of guilty knowledge is the matter in issue.
Is there probable cause to believe that a
Jury would hold that a person of the high
character and position of the defendant,
would willfully and feloniously embark in so
small fraud. or imperil them for so paltry
an emolument as could result from any pos
sible rise in the price of a few bundles of
whalebone, in the absence of any satisfacto-
ry evidence TO sustain so grave charge.
Assnredly it is the right and privilege of
magistrate, to give such unqual-
flied evidence of good character as has been
given in this case, all the consideration and
weight that it deserves in making up his
mind on, and solving the problem whether
in his opinion "there is probable cause to
believe that q jury would, upon that evidence,
convict the accused of the offence of which
he is charged" as required by the statute
II is the duty of committing magistrate to
avoid, as far as possible, an abortive jury
trial, which feel must be the result of a
in this case. With these views
strongly impressed on my mind, resulting
from an anxious and careful examination and
of all the evidence in the case, it
only remains to cousumate my duty by de-
clariug the defendant discharged from the
specific charge which has been Investigated.

THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH IN JAPAN.-The
" Galdted arrived at Yokohama August Goth,
and sailed on the 10th of September.
The following reference to the stay of His
Royal Highness in Japan is from the Japan
Gazette:
The presence among us of II. r. II. the
Duke of Edinburgh has hcen the event en-
gaging most attention during the fortnight.
His visit TO Japan, has, we are fain TO hope,
been in every way agreeable. He has been
received on equal terms in his Royal capacity
by the Mikauo; he has had every possible
respect paid to him in bis representative
character by the community; ard he has
been permitted when of duty to go his
own way and do entirely as he liked without
any obtrusivc following, or offensive ohser-
walton. He acted throughout his stay here
in such a manner as to win the regard of all;
and before parting, took the opportunity of
expressing over and over again, his appreci-
alton of Japan and the foreign community.
In ono circumstance that happened ,Or his
visit 10 the Mikado, proof was given Of the
rapid breaking down of the old exclusiveness
of the japanese Imperial Court After the
formal interview, the Prince, Sir Harry Par
kes, and Six Henry Keppel were asked tosee
the grounds around the palace. As they
were so engaged, high officer approached,
and told them that His Majesty the Mikado
was now in pleasure house in the garden,
and would be glad Of some conversation with
them. They of cause went, seals were pro-
vided and they sat some time chatting. II
seens-to those who know what the charac-
ter always attached to the Mikado is and has
been by the japanese, high and lOw-among
the greatest evidences of the real approach TO
modern views and ideas that have yet been
given.
Since then an uncle of the Mikado. a Mia,
only few degrees less sacred than the ruler
himself, has actually dincd al the British Le-
CATION 10 meet the Prince. and attended at a
Ball after the dinner. With him were two
members of the government, both considered
to be among the most enlightened meh in
the country.
In this way, then, the visit Of the Duke of
Edinburgh may prove a very great advan-
tage as certainly nothing but such an event
could have produced so remarkable change
in the Imperial amenities.
The Gdldted with His Royal Highness, left
on the 10Th instant. There is nothing in
connection with the splendid frigate, her
Royal Captain, officers or crew, that has not
left a favorable impression.
With tue GdidteG, II. NJ. Tender Sdicmis
having on board Admiral Hon. Sir Henry
Keppel, X. c. B., and the Irunclad Ocean and
Corvette Pearl, went out of harbour. The
Iedii returned the same evening; the Ocean
will probably be back within fortnight;
but the Sdldmis bears the Admiral to China.

ed. But he regarded the illiberality as
| injurious to the planters of South Carolina
and Georgia, and to the stockholders of
| the road, as his report most plainly shows.
Not even our contemporary can defend the
| principle of closing up our great lines of
communication against any business that
may offer, nor will it assert that the bust
ness Importance of its city depends npon
prohibitory tariffs " on its lines of rail-
roads The demands of business are too
pressing, routes of transportation too nu-
merous and the enterprise of eur people
too great, long to tolerate monopolies Of
any kind.
During the past few years great change
has taken place in regard to the transport
tation Of freight. 1t has been found very
desirable and profitable to carry certain
kinds of produce and merchandise by rail
roads which formerly were transported by
sea almost exclusively, and our railroad
officials must realize this change CT they
will certainly fall behind their rivals in the
race for success.
We wish it to be understood that we do
not expect Or desire that the South Caro-
lima railroad should be operated against
the interest of Charleston, but for It's own
welfare. As it is, on account OF the want
Of cooperation complained of. General
MALONE is delivering goods in Atlanta
from Norfolk, by way of Lyncbburg
cheaper than it is done by the way of Viii
mington. When we consider that the
latter route is some fifty miles shorter with
great advantages in grades, being more
level and straighter, We can see at once
how the Stockholders of the South Caro-
lima Railroad are injured and Charleston
not benefited. Since freight will find it's
way north and south of Charleston without
passing through that city, we submit that
it would be better for the roads in the
Carolinas and Eastern Georgia to receive
some benefit from their transportation
rather than lose it almost altogether by at
tempting to force it to suit local interests.
Let us do away, then, with injurious local
iealousies. Let trade follow it's legitimate
channels. Let our roads be operated to
bring to their terminal cities all the trade
which belongs legitimately thereto. Let
us honestly unite to develop all our inter
ests, aiding rather than hindering one
another, and not only will commercial
prosperity bless our section and people,
but it will be nourished by the very kind
illness and sympathy of our efforts.

persons living beyond the limits of the
State. But as we have no hopes that the
money could be raised here, our next de-
sire would be that it should be purchased
by persons interested in making the stock
valuable and aiding the people in improv-
ing the country to which this road must
look for support. In other words, we would
have purchasers who invest as business,
and not as a political transaction. And if
the parties now negotiating for the pur
chase shall succeed, we will have cause to
congratulate ourselves that We will not fall
our railroads as great machines to further
personal and political ends
1t will be impossible to bring renewed
prosperity to this road without our city
and section deriving some benefit, always
believing that it will be operated as it is
now, not for Or against local interests, but
for the welfare Of the road itself. IT, there
fore, us we believe it will, this stock shall
be purchased by purely business men, and
their influence shall only be felt in the
management of the road for its prosperity,
We cannot sec how this community will be
injured, and FEEL confident the section along
the road will be materially benefited. If
we cannot have these matters just as we
might desire them, we should at least con-
graduate ourselves if our political and COM
mercial enemies do not control our desti-
MES. Let capital be brought to cur rail
roads-much Of it will find investment
here, and all will go to improve our condi-
ton. Nothing strikes the stranger more
favorably, in passing through a country,
than the good condition Of its railroads.
1t truly indicates prosperity Ill other
enterprises.

Harnett gave DIR. Murphy, the Demo.

This does not include two Democratic
precincts, which did not vote, the Radical
officials having failed to send registration
books in time.
In Sampson it is said that the officially
declared majority for Murphy is 500.
DR.. Murphy is probably elected by about
900 maiority
