Lead PenciIs-How They Are Made.


The best lead pencils are made from
a natural ore OF plumbago obtained
from Borrourdale, in Cumberland; but
the more common sort from an artiti-
cial compound Of plumbago dust and
antimony. The Jumps of pure plum
bago, when scraped and free from dirt,
are of irregular form, varying generally
in size between that of walnut and an
egg. These Jumps are cut in slices by a
circular saw, which is put in motion by
the operator turning winch and fly
wheel with one hand, while he applies
the lump of ore with the other against
a metal face set at proper distance
from the disc Of the saw, so as to act as
a guage or stop tor producing the proper
thickness in the slice. The saw runs
vertically, and the ore is applied below
it; the aunkman gradually raising it
against the saw till the piece is cut of,
when il falls down slice upon slice on a
table below, these being ofdifferent sizes,
from one to two inches in length, and OF
different breadths. Pieces of cedar are
out by a fine circular saw into square
prisms of the intended length OF the
pencil, or rather into such thickness
that two of them together form a
square, one of them thicker than the
other, so as to admit the groove cut to
receive the lead to be in one peice only,
this groove being ploughed out by a
proper. guage plane. The operator
takes enc Of the slices Of plumbago
brought to straight edge into glue,
then inserts it into the groove with a
sharp instrument, makes cut on each
side along the edge of the wood, when
by a light force it breaks off, leaving
again a straight edge. This is now
dipped again in glue and inserted at
the end of the last piece, and again cut
of, till the lenght of the groove is filled
with the lead The whole upper sur
face is then smoothed, and the other
piece of wood glued on; the pencil IS
then square and rather rongh. 1t is
now taken to beanade round, prepare
tory to which it is passed along a cir
cular saw, set TO an exact guage and
cut also certain length. In order to
give it its cylinder figure, it is passed
through a square hole in an iron or
steel puppet Of the exact size OF the
pencil, and forced along by the work
man. On the other side of this puppet
is the revolving apparatus which cuts
the pencil round; it consists OF two
guages and small plane iron revolving
around an open centre. Beyond this a
cylindrical hole in steel plate; as soor,
therefore, as the irst end of the pencil
is cut round it is forced into this circu-
lar hole; and, before the workman has
lost the means Of 'pushingit forward at
the end that is square, the cylindrical
end is pushed through the circular
hole, 80 as to enable him to seize it with
a pair of wooden nippers; and tits thus
pushed and drawn quite through, and
comes out beautifully round and pol
ished.

BRUTAL NURDaR.-Last Friday after.

BRUTAL HURDRR.-Last Friday after
noon a most brutal murder was COM
mitted in Clendinen township, in this
county. So far as We could gather the
facts from the various reports that
reach us, they are about these: A
youth named Sturgeon was going to the
public school which was taught by q
Mr.. Kent. On Friday afternoon young
Sturgeon was disorderly in school and
was reprimanded for it by the teacher.
1t is said he told some Of his school
mates that he would kill Kent for rep
rimanding him. After school he pro.
ceeded to put his threat into execution
by procuring a cudgel, with which he
struck Kent on the back of the head,
killing him almost instantly. Whether
he waylaid his victim or did the deed
in the presence Of the scholars we did
not learn. i. is said that Sturgeon has
fled the State.-Mason Co. Journal
roLEN.-Mr.::Robt. Wiley, of Teays'
Valley, had fine dark iron gray horse
stolen from him on the night Of the
2Sth of February. He offers reward
OF fifty dollars for the horse, or one
hundred dollars for the horse and thief.
He also offers to pay literally for any
information that will lead to the detec-
ton of the thief or the recovery Of the
horse. His address is Mud Ridge, W.
Va.-MaSon County Journal.
MURDER IN JACKSON CoUNTY.-The
Mason County Journal learns that a
man named Gardner was indicted at
the recent term Of the Jackson county
court, for the murder of VIM. Parks, a
few miles from Ravenswood, during the
early part of the late war. This makes
three indictments for murder commit
ted in that county during the war, that
have been made within the last six
months. And it ia right. Any person
who committed murder, be he "home
guard" "bushwhacker," or regular
soldier, and no matter what side he
was on, should pay the penalty OF his
crime.
A GERMAN, apparently deranged, was
one day last week found wandering
about the neighborhood Of Prideyale,
Clinton township. He gave his name
as John Eberhard, and says he is forty
years Of age, although otherwise he can /.
not give an intelligent account Of him
self. He claims to have at one
time worked for a man named John
Cramer, and that his parents, brothers
and sisters are in this country, residing
either in Rochester, N. Y, New Jersey,
or Westchester, Pa. He was lodged in
the county Jail by the authorities to
await further information in regard to
him. The press might materially as
sist the unfortunate man by copying the
above-.Moryantown Constitution.
SUMMERS CoUNTY.-This is the name
by which the new county created from
portions of Monroe, Mercer, Raleigh,
Fayette and Greenbrier, is to be known.
The county seat is located at the con-
fiuence Of the Greenbrier and New
rivers, on the north bank Of the Green
brier; grand location. 1t will be the
point Of junction for the Chesapeake d
D. railroad, and the New River railroad
and will be the seat OF the great rail-
road industry. We respectfully suggest
that the name of the new county seat
be Hinton, in honor Of the gentleman
to whom the new county owes its exis-
tence,-Monros Register.

Further Church Complications in Blount.y

MARYvILLE, Tenn, Oct. 8, 1871.
EDITORS CHRONICLE :-Blount county
is gaining quite notOriety for the way in
which her parsons get into trouble This
morning Rev. G. w. X. Greene, who trav-
els this circuit under the auspices of the
NJ. e. Church, South, was arrested by
sheriff j. ID. Alexander, on a charge of
obtaining personal property under false
pretences." Mr.. G. Conner, prominent
citizen of this county, is the prosecutor.
The facts as represented to us by gentle
men assuming to be conversant with the
affair, and as generally understood as the
grounds upon which the prosecution bases
an action are substantially as follows:
About one month since as the prosecu-
tor Mr.. Conner charges, the defendant
came to his residence in this county, in
company with another ministerial broth
ef, and requested the liberty of iu-
specting a deed in his (Conner'sl
possession as trustees of the M. E. Church,
involving the right and title to the 90 Mid
die Settlement" M. e. Church. Mr.. Con-
ner, not anticipating any trouble, handed
him the deed. The prosecution charge
that Greene retained the deed, and, in spite
of Mr.. Conner's Oft-repeated request to re-
turn it, took it away and still holds it.
The defendant will have a hearing on
Thursday next, before s.. III. Gaut, Esq, of
this place. We will give you the finale of
this somewhat novel case, as soon as ju-
dicial tribunal has pronounced an opinion
touching the "guilt or innocence of the
accused. AMERICUS.

Governor Browns Policy.

Owing to the illness of the Governor
elect, 1T is not probable that his message
will soon be delivered or his Inauguration
take place. 1t may, therefore, be of inter-
est to know what he will recommend.
The Bd,mer gives the following intima-
tions:
General Browns recent illness has de-
layed the preparation of his message,
though all Of the leading features are de-
termined upon, as he has familiarized him.
self long ago with all the important ques-
tions connected with the interests of the
State.
1t has been his constant study to devise
some plan for increasing the revenues OF
the State and at the same time reduce the
rate of taxation, especially upon real es-
tate. He looks upon the agricultural in
terests as per Sc the most important and
most to be protected of all interests. Yet,
while the tax upon this should be tighten
ed, the revenues are not to be reduced. He
has an idea in.this connection which strikes
us as being in no wise bad one. He
thinks it would be we'll to tax every bond
given by sheriffs. justices of the peace, con-
stables, registers, clerks, and all other Off
GERS of this nature. AS these offices are
places of profit, no one could reasonably
object to the tax. Again, If there is enter
ed an additional amount to the cost of eve
ry case tried before a justice, in the way of
taxation, the revenue from this source
would also be considerable. No one brings
a case into court, at any rate, unless he ex-
poets to throw the costs on the other side.
It is estimated that such system as this
will reduce the general tax of so cents on
the one hundred dollars to as low as 40
cents. Our real estate would then enhance
in value rapidly-and the value of real es-
tate is the basis Of peoples wealth, after

self firmly upon the law, and will have all
crimes dealt withto the fullest extent which
the law directs, let its severity fall on
whom it may. He will look especially in
to the management of the penitentiary
with view to regulating it, and, if need
ful, changing the present system. He
comes into office with his responsibilities
clearly appreciated, and will labor for the
progress, and, at the same time, for the
credit of his State.
He informs us that he has not vet deter
mined when he will send in his message
to the General Assembly.
1t is hardly probable that the new Gov
ernor will be inaugurated until some time
next week. FT .EsE

THE TAMMANY WAR.
Criminal Process Served on the Plunderel


NEW YORK, Oct. LIT is positively as
serted that the process in the civil suits of
Hon. William Havemeyer against several
of the city's plunderers for the recovery
of the treasure, has been served upon Mr..
Hall, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors,
and j. II. Ingersoll, the great carpet and
furniture man. The gentlemen who have
the management of the case of the plain
tiff in the suits are very circumspect and
reticent, and unable to give any informa-
ton whatever. 1t, however, seems to be
pretty well authenticated that process
was served upon Ingersoll at his office, No.
II Bowery, Friday afternoon, and the ru-
NOR that the rest of the plunderig coterie
have decamped gains credence from the
fact that every effort SO far to ascertain
their whereabouts have proved futile.
Judge Barnard, on the application of ex-
Judge Barrett, w. III. Peckham, General
Barlow and A. r. Lawrence, counsel to
the Committee of Seventy, has issued his
summons for certain persons to appear be-
fore him, with their books and accounts,
for examination. Similar summons were
issued yesterday, among which were the
names of IngersOll, j. w. Smith, Garvey,
Miller, the New York Printing Company
and others of the same kind. The exam
ination is intended to compel these persons
to show what services they rendered for
the money received.
Tomorrow, it is said, the public will
receive information of more startling
character than the above, and it is to be
hoped that the assertion may be realized.
1t is also said that the nature of the pro-
cess in view will not be of civil charac-
ter, but will assume the form of criminal
prosecution. Gentlemen of the law, who
have charge of the matter, state that there
have been many difficulties encountered
toward securing the ends of justice, but as
they have 6nally, with herculean labor,
been removed, the path is now considered
clear for them to arrest the guilty parties.
