SECOND ADvENT.-From Onondaga county,
N. Y, the story of sen alton comes rvalling
in local interest even the Cardiff Giant, who
had his birth there. Some five years ago there
lived near Collamer an old farmer named
Blodgett, who owned and cultivated about $50
acres of ground, and was reputed wealthy. At
that time he left home one Friday evening for
the purpose of obtaining some money with
which to pay his workmen the next night. He
got the money, but was not seen by his friends
and foul play was suspected, of which he was
the supposed victim. A woman whose house
stood by the road which he would have to take,
heard indications of a struggle near by on that
night and cries of murder. A body was soon
after found on the shore of Oneida Lake, be-
Iev d to be that of Blodgett. This dispelled all
doubt and hesitation, and his heirs took means
lcr the division of his property. The surprise
Oh the family can well be imagined when, few
Jays ago, they received letter from man in
~: .ue on regions purporting to be Blodgett, say
ins that he was in want and wished money to
get home with. One of his sons went down,
and recognized his father, though sadly chang
ed. Blodgett says that no attempt was ever
made upon his life, and refuses to give anv en-

decrease of the power in manner that could
not be accounted for. So the pipes in which
were taken up and examined, and found at a
point where they are not buried below the
action of the frost, to contain eighteen inches
of solid ice. 1t was settled after this wise, that
the moisture in the air produced the ice. How
power brought through eighteen inches of solid
ice, simply lessening its force, is question for
the wise men of the seat of learning to decide.

stories, but it comes on good authority ar was

THE opposition press severely censurc the
action of President Grant in relation to LOU
isiana as unprecedented and dangerous in its
tendency if not unconstitutional. Neverthe-
less the course of the President is not with
out precedent nor dangerous nor unconstitu-
tional according to Chief Justice fancy
During the administration Of President Ty-
Ter in 1912, the famous 'Dorr Rebellion"
took place in Rhode Island and was the first
instance of two conflicting governments in
one State. Governor Samuel W. King was
at the head of one, and Thomas w. Dorr
at the head of the other Mr.. Dorr and his
Legislature attempted to organize at New
port. Gov. King proclaimed martial law,
called out the militia obtained the aid of
United States troops, and suppressed Dorr.
The case was taken into the Supreme Court
and ChiefJustice fancy, in delivering the
opinion of the court, made these observations ::
BY this act 1.-THE law of 1851 the power of de-
Gliding whether the exigsncy has arisen upon
which the government of the United States is
bound to interfere, is given to the President.
He is to act upon the application of the Legis-
lature or of the executive [of the STATED and
consequently HE must determine Whdt body of
men constitute the Legislature, and ,oho is the
Governor before he can act. The fact that both
parties claim the right to the government, can
not alter the case, for both cannot be entitled
to it. If it is an armed conflict, like the one
of which we are speaking, it is case of do
mestic violence, and one of the parties must be
in instruction ag inst the lawful government.
And THE PRESIDENT must of necessity decide
