Free Trade RIble Doctrine.

Judge Grassland, our representative in
Congress, delivered speech in the
House on the 10th instant, on the tariff,
which occupies nine columns in the Dali
ly Globe, which is too much for our
columns to republish We extract the
following brief paragraph from it, how
ever, referring to free trade as bible
doctrine:
Freedom Of trade is a Bible taught
doctrine; it was taught by Solomon when
he sat on the throne Of the Lord as
king instead Of David, his father, and
prospered, and all Israel obeyed him. ~
In , Chronicles, chapter two, We read /;
Aud Solomon sent to Huram, the
king Of Tyre saying" Send
NE now, therefore, man cunning to
work in gold a skilled laborer,I and IA
silver, aud in brass, aud in iron, and III
purple, and in crimson, aud blue. aud
that can skill to grave with the cunning
men that are with me" = x Send
me also cedar trees, FIR trees, and algum
trees out Of Lebanon" x Aud
behold, I will give to thy servants, the
Lewers that cut timber, twenty thousand
measures of beaten wheat, aud twenty
thousand measures Of barley, and twen-
~ thousand baths of wine, and twenty
thousand baths of oil.
Aud Huram answered in writing and
agreed to send the skilled mechanic, and
said
"Now therefore the wheat, and the
barley, the oil, aud the wine, which my
lord has spoken of, let him send unto his
servants; aud we will cut wood out u
Lebanon, as much as thou shalt need;
and We will bring it to thee in floats by sea
to Joppa, &c.

ducts without any restrictions, without

An Outrageous case OF Rane.

We hear OF most outrageous case Of
rape, which occurred in Hickman county
near Clinton, the past week. Il appears
that four men by the names Of jackson
#eatherford, Coe, and Vaughn. disguis
ed themselves as ku klux. aud went to
the farm house Of 9Ir. Shelton. who
lives on the old Grassland place. where
they first induced the old mau to par
take Of some kipd Of drink, perhaps a
mixture with whiskey, which had the eff
feet of putting the old man soundly
asleep aud utterly obliyious to every
thing going on around him. These men
then seized the old lady, (Mrs. Shelton)
and her daughter, aud violently and out
rageously violated their persons until
their brutal passions were satisfied. Be
sides this brutal and 6endish conduct.
they represented themselves as ku klux,
threatening to visit the vengeance of the
kuklux klan upon the household if any
one dared ever to expose or make known
their villainous visit The family, OF
course, we're perfectly terrorized by the
miscreants, and being new comers into
the county knew not what course to Pur-
pose. The next night, however, larger
number of disguised men, visited the
Shelton's, and demanded Of them if they
could identify the persons who had in
ficted upon them such outrageous VIC
lence; and under their protection identi
fed two men, eatherford and Coe, whom
they recognized from large number pre-
sent and whom circumstantial facts also
convict. The other two have been ascer /
tanned to be men By the names of Jack
son and Vaughn, who up to our adyices
had eluded arrest Weatherford and Coe
were i'm ediately arrested, carried 20 Gin
ton and safely jailed; and their case in.
mediately presented to the grand jury
then in session, who found an indictment
forthwith upon the above facts. Circuit
Court is now in session at Clinton, aud
they will probably be tried this week or
next The penalty for such ofTen5es in
Kentucky IS hanging until dead, dead,
dead, and if the facts are as related to
us, all four of the rascals richly deserve
the fate.
