A terrible poisoning tragedy is reported to
have occurred in Wheatland, Mo, last We'd
nesday. 1t is stated that young man named
Moore, who was suffering from ague, applied
to the county physician for remedy. As he
objected to quinine,, the physician prescribed
dogweed and whisky" Young Moore having
taken dose of the "bitters" started for his
home, but was barely able to get there, and
died soon afterwards. Two doctors named
Redfeld and Barnes, who had been called by
Mrs. Moore to attend her son, in order to con-
vince her that he had not been poisoned by the
prescription, swallowed each some Of the mix
tuEe. They socn afterward left, and both
expired soon after reaching their homes. AS
an Investigation had not taken place at che
time of the report. it was not known whether
the poisoning was the result of the prescription
or blunder in the preparation OF it by the
druggist.

The BREAKwATER.- the opinion of the
Trade Journal the Delaware Breakwater is in
danger of entire destruction for lack of little
additional expenditure. 1t says that it is the
opinion of the best nautical men, as we'll as Of
many skilltul engineers, that in consequence of
the ebb tide escaping through the opening lett
between the two walls, instead of along their
entire length and around their southern ex-
tremity, the harbor is rapidly filling with sand,
90 that where there were formerly four and five
fathOms of water, there are now but thirteen
feet, and that already a considerable part Of
the harbor is rendered useless to vessels Of
large size.
1t is suggested that the best mode Of remedy
ing the evil is by closing up the gap. An effort
has been made for several years past to obtain
grant by Congress for the purpose, but under
the erroneous impression that it was Phia
delpha affair, it has not been obtained. By
record kept of the vessels seeking shelter il
the harbor, the fact is established that but few
Of them are from or to Philadelphia. 1t is
therefore, strictly national work, and not
local one, and should therefore, not be charged
to the account of Philadelphia.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE EEWS.I
WASHINGTON, March FL
In the Supreme Court to-day, in the case Of
the United States vs. Avery ct al, the attor-
ney-generals motion to dismiss the writ of
error was granted. The decision was an
nounced by Chief Justice Chase. who said the
case was controlled by the decision In the case
of the United States vs.. Rosenberg, which
was sthat motion to quash the Indictment
was clearly determinable by the lower court,
as matter of discretion. 1t was preliminary,
and the denial Of it could not finally
decide any right of the defendant. When
such motion is made by defendant it ID
usually refused unless in the clearest cases,
and grounds of it, II available, may be used on
demurrer or on motion in arrest OF judg-
.ment. The case could not come to the !Su-
prsme Court on writ OF error to final judg-
meut under two years, but a writ of haoeas
corpus being issued for the relief of the pris-
oners, and their discharge under that writ
being denied, that judgment has been brought
here for review, and the case 80 presented
will involve the constitutional questions,
whose hearing is deferred by this decision.
A motion will probably be made to-mor-
row to fix day for the hearing on the last
named questions.

in Behalf Of the Southern Rice In.

WASHINGTON, March 21.
In the Senate the tariff was considered.
Morton gave notice OF an amendment repeal
ing all domestic taxes except upon liuqors
and tobacco after October ISL dSIH, ~ ,sto,n
the present duty on rice. He said there were
few branches OF industry In the rice producing
States which are aided by protective dulles,
while the people OF those States paid taxes on
almost everything for the benefit OF the indus
tries of other States. There were peculiar
reasons for aiding Southern industry at the
present time. The land owners had nolhlng
else but land lett alter the war. The freed
men were the only class that had gained
material wealth. The land owners had 10 Dor
row money at enormous rates to carry on
planting operations. The South, therefore,
asked the same protection for her labor mat
had been so freely extended elsewhere. Iney
asked for the retention OF tne duty
on rice. He described at length the ex,
pensive and complicated process required
lion the rice fields were generally abandoned,
being near the theatre Of war. This neglect OF
four years almost threw the lands back into
the valueless swamps from which the labors OF
generations had reclaimed them. Without
the duty 1t would have been impossible to re-
store the rice fields to cultivation after the
war. Continue the duty tor few years and

planters could then prosper without 1t. There
were probably twenty thousand families IN
Georgia and South Carolina dependent upon
rice culture for support. Almost the entire
benefit from the proposed reduction would
accrue to the benefit OF few importers and
dealers in foreign rice. Adjourned without

ciety, r.,
To many the heavy news that he was dead
came even before the announcement Of bis H.
ness, and 1t was hard to realize that one whom
we had known and valued so long had indeed
passed away, that We should see his pleasant,
cheerful face and feel the warm grasp Of his
friendly hand no more.
Mr.. Taylor came to this city from bis native
New England in the fall of. 1880, and Sfrem that

and treasurer; in 1855 he was elected one Of its
vice presidents, which once he held until Decen,.
ber %, 1867, when he declined reelection. His
interest In the society nevertheless continued un.
abated. and none appeared to enjoy more the
festivities OF our last celebration otthe Landing
OF the Pilgrims than he whose death ne now
lament, and whose spirit we trust has gone to join
the .tgoodly fellowship Of that noble band In o
better world. ed.
To many OF us Mr.. Taylor had been the Intimate
companion and friend during the whole or the
greater portion OF his residence here, and 1t is
from no mere compliance with ordinary custom,
but as the expression Of sincere Gorrow over
great loss that we put on record this memorial to
our departed friend, and we respectfully o1er to
his stricken family cur coincidence and sympathy
in this their hour Of grief and sorrow. Belt,
therefore,
Resolved That in the demise Of the late Colonel
James II. Taylor. the New England Society sin.

Resolued, That copy Of this preamble and reso.
lutlons be transmitted to the family by the presl
dent and secretary OF this society, and be publish

respect, the society do now adjourn. Y
