The bold bank-breakers, having ran-
sacked nearly every moneyed ihstitu-
ton in the State of New York, now
turn up In South Carolina. We trust
that the Southern bank guardians will
be on the alert. The first establish
ment robbed does not seem to have
offered any serious obstacles to the
plunderers. As at the North, they
used both powder and drills TO force
the safes, and the detonations created
no alarm. Can 1t be that this gang OF
bank-breakers employ a noiseless pow
der? They certainly blow open
massive f~ire-proofs and demolish walls
in an amazingly quiet manner, for the
noise that should attend their violent
operations never seems to be heard.

ult., of John Carney and his wife in the
store in charge Of Mr. c., in the south
east part of Barrey county, in this State
and the subsequent arrest of young man
named Moore, recently from Texas, charg-
ed with the murder. Immediately after
Moore's arrest the Sheriff of the county.
fearing the populace would rescue and
execute his prisoner, took him, under
guard, to the country, where he was held
until, as was supposed, the excitement
had died out, when he was returned to
jail On the evening of the Both ult.,
however, large number of the relatives
and friends of Carney armed themselves.
surrounded the Sheriff and the Jail, and
demanded the surrender of Moore Over
powered. the Sheriff gave up the jail keys,
when Moore was taken out and hanged to
death. Notwithstanding he protested his
innoceucy to the last, there seems to be
little doubt that he was guilty. He was
seen in the store shortly before the murder
took place. His hat and his pistol-the
latter covered with blood, were found in the
store with the bodies of the victims while
he, when arrested next day, had on the
hat of Carney, and also had the latter,s
pistol and some 5000 in money, supposed
to have been taken from the store at the
time of the murder.

Brigham, Jun.-What He Looks Like

Two Converts On the Spot.
In Williamsburg the Norman haunt is
over an oyster saloon, and is reached by
four flights of rickety stairs Yesterday
afternoon the meeting was numerously at
tended, as it was understood that bishops
from Utah would address the brethren
The elders sat in a semi-circle, the stran-
gers being in the center The temperance
altar was exactly in front of Brigham
Young, jun, who is a presentable fellow of
middle height, but very heavily built, slow
in manner, and altogether bovine in ap-
pearance Sometimes his eye is fixed on
vacancy, his lips rapidly moving, and his
nostrils quiyering This may be inspira-
tional, but it may also be incipient epilep-
sy His head is square, his eyes show a
large amount of white, with sort of glaz-
ed look, and the under eyelid is very full.
His lips are well formed, the lower one be-
ingthick. Hespokeat considerable length,
slowly at first, but afterward with more
confidence.
The substance of Bngham's discourse
was abuse of the press The two other
bishops from Utah, a Mr. Hammond and 3
Potts, spoke also. They enlarged upon
the earthly prosperity that awaited the
faithful in the Vale of .Deseret
The service consisted of singing hymns
to funny tunes, and a daring travesty of the
Lords Supper. Two seedy individuals
pulled a consecrated loaf into pieces abou
the size of Spanish chestnut, with finger
which may have been holy, but, certainly
were not clean. This was handed rom,
by some of the presiding genii, and after
ward came a ibation of water 1t wa
noticeable that when the lecturer felt thirs
ty he took square drink from the sam
cup. During the progress of the element
through the room the faithful sang vers,
of an apparently interminable hymn, to II
air "Woodman, Spare That Tree"
After the feast two converts were rece
we'd into the Church, which was donein th
following manner: Three elders place
their hands on the head of the neophyte,

Dom Piatt in a late letter to the
Commercial, in speaking of the so-called
reconstruction act, by which Georgia, as he
says was RECONSTRUCTED the sixteenth
time each time it was promised waste be
final reconstruction, 2 says -
'Thereisa a toy, common among chill
dren, that consists of grotesque little
figure, with leadin its seat that will keep 1t
in certain position You tumble it over,
you put its head down, and in a few seconds
as if after some reflection, the absurd
thing bounces up in the imberest manner.
This illustrates reconstruction So long
as we sit on the figure, or load it down with
muskets and cannon, it remains pros
trate. But the moment we remove the
burden the figure assumes its upright Do
sition, with the head and seat in their pre-.
/ destined position"

True HerOianl.

The following particulars are given of
the death of a wOodsawyer employed by
railrood company at Edgarton, o.;
The man was engaged in eording up
wood that had been sawed alongside the
track, and was standing upon the pile as
the lightning train was seen approaching,
The man glanced at the track and noticed
a large stick of wood lying upon one of
the rails, and instantly, it would seem,
realized the danger to the train unless the
stick was removed from the track. The
train was then so near that the man must
have known that the attempt toremove
the obstruction would imperil his life, but
he did not hesitate; jumping from the
woodpile to the side of the track close by
the rail, he seized the billet of wood had
raised it from the ground, and was lifting
it with his body from over the rail when
the locomotive struck him, hurling him
and the stick Of wood some distance, and
he fell to the ground mangled and hfeless.
There is no doubt that the train would
have been thrown from the track had not
the billet of wood been removed, and the
damage that would have resulted no one
can estimate loss ofproperty and perhaps
of life

Who KILLED STo5ETALL JAcKsoN?-
This question isjust now quite an interest
ing one to our Northern friends The last
article we have seen on the subject says
that he was killed by Pleasanton's artil-
lery. If the simpletons who discuss the
question would remember when and
where it was that Jackson was wounded,
they would have no occasion to commit
such blunders as they do. Though not
wishing to mortify too much our Yankee
friends who are claiming to have killed
''the greatest of the Southern Generals, >
we would remind one and all of them that
Jackson died of pneumonia He wasn't
killed by anybody.-Richmond Dispatch

SANTANA is ours, On the 9th of Deeem-
Der the United States flag was raised over
the town and bay, a salute was fred by
the war steamer Albany, and force of
American troops landed and took formal
possession. Samana Bay is situated on
the northeast coast of San Domingo, and
is about forty-three miles in length from
east to westby eight miles broad, and at
its west end receives the Yuma, the elargest
river in the Dominican Republic 1t forms
one of the finest harbors in the world, and
may be regarded as most important mar
itime position in reference to the trade Of
the gulf of Mexico and the inter-oceanic
routes across Central America, both in a
commercial and military point of view.
On the north shore is the small town of
Santa Barbara, which lies in land-lecked
bay and has natural facilities for repair
ing vessels. dilapidated Roman Catholic
church, neat Wesleyan chapel, and a
custom house The peninsula of Samana
is thirty-two miles long. It's highest peak,
Sugar Loaf Hill is 1886 feet, and Devils
Hill is 1909 feet above sea level. The
soil is extremely fertile, and to great ex-
tent is covered with timber, suited both
for ship-building and cabinet-work. 1t
also contains gold, copper, and bituminous,
coal. The population at the last census
was 1.721. The news of the occupation OF
Samana by the United States created great
excitement among the people of San Dom
lingo and the revolutionary party were max
ing redoubled efforts to drive out Baez
who had effected the negotiations. Baez
declares that he will annex the whole re-
public to the United States if he is forced
to that alternative.

DURING the year Just closing, the fire
insurance business has not been as pros
porous as in previous years. hepremium
receipts have been larger, but the fires
have been unusually destructive. The
nine great companies of Hartford, Connee-

er, this year, and have added handsome
sums to their assets during the year. The
Putnam, which was the only company IN
that city that in 1868 declared no dividend,
owing to its serious losses by the Portland
fire, has divided eight per cent, or $40
600, this year. Etna jumps from $3.50 900
in dividends last year to 100000 this
year, and adds about s., 100000 to its as
sets. The Hartford makes an increase of
$40 700 in benefits to stockholders, and
the Phoenix adds $18, 900, and piles about
$40, 900 on to its surplus The Merchants
