A Trial Of Fenianism.

An extraordinary incident, arising mp.
parently out Of the Fenian outbreak Of
1867. has taken place in London. II
will be remembered that in the autumn
Of that year an attempt was made TO
blow up tho House OF Detention in
Clerkenwell, London, proceeding
which caused tho liveliest alarm, mas
much as it was suspected to be only the
prelude to much more Of the same kind
Of thing. A few weeks ago u woman
named Denny left the lodgings which
she had occupied for some time while
living with Fenian named Desmond.
Among her effects. which she borrowed
n neighbor's truck TO remove, was n box
which presently was discovered to be on
fire. The mob pulled the box of the
truck, when some of the contents ex-
ploded. The place was lit up Ms il the
whole Of the street was on fire, and the
coRtents of some Of the cans it contained
were kicked about. Seven or eight per-
sons were injured by the fire, more es-
pecialy n sweep, who was severely
burnt, and is now an inmate of the hos
pital. The affair seems to have been
most serious. Several iire-engines were
brought out for the purpose of extin-
gushing the flames that had broken
out, but were not required, the inham-
mable matter having been promptly
taken away. A woman, in jumping
from the first floor to escape from the
flames, broke her leg and is now in
very critical state. A man, in rescuing
a little girl, burnt his hands. Two
police constables, while attempting to
put out the fire in the house, were much
burnt in the hands, and have been in
from duty. After the fire
was extinguished rigid examination of
,he premises was made by the firemen,

his listeners, deliberately closed the
Bible and proceeded to speak extern

he moved along nicely, and his hearers
were charmed with the change but

REDUCING THE FAMILY.-Wednesda morn
ing family of six persons, travelling through
Macomb County towards Detroit, stopped about
thirty miles from the city and attempted to
give away little boy four years old to farm
er. He did not want the child, and the wagon
drove on but it seems that the little fellow
was set down in the road about half mile
from the house, and in about an hour appeared
at the farmers gate. The farmer was highly
enraged at the dodge and saddling his horse
he took the child before him and rode after the
wagon. Before he came up with it he found
that the family had given away girl about a
year and half old. He made them take the
boy back, and when he threatened the father
with arrest, the fellow coolly replied that he
had too many children and wanted to get rid
of some of them. The farmer encountered a
teamster who was coming to Detroit and asked
him to keep an eye on the immigrants. Thurs
day night they camped beside the road about
fifteen miles from the city, while the teamster,
whose name is James Bruce, came on through
At the City Hall market yesterday noon the
immigrant wagon was discovered by Bruce,
who found the man and his wife alone, they
having disposed of their five children along the
road. Little satisfaction could be obtained as
to where the little ones had been left, both
parents seeming to have no more feeling than
wolves, and when there was talk of arrestine
them they drove off as fast as possible. 1t is
believed that they dropped the children here
and there on the road, and probably most OF
them will find their way into Detroit to be sent
to the County House.-DetroI Free Press.

FROM PORT ROYAL TO CHICAGO. VIA EDGE
FILLD, ABBEvILLE, ANDERSON AND THE BLUE
Ridge RAILRoAD.-A road connecting the
Port Royal Railroad must be built. The con-
nections we have with the west at Augusta are
too indirect. We want, and must have, the
shortest line possible between Cincinnati, the
Chic valley, Chicago and the great lakes. Such
a line can be had only by leaving the Port
Royal Railroad at or near Allendale, passing
through Edgefeld, Abbevile and Anderson
counties to the Blue Ridge Railroad. Thence
Il Knoxville through Rabun Gap thence to
Cincinnati and Chicago.
We have many evidences that the people of
Beaufort, Barnwell, Edge6eld, Abbeville and
Anderson are awake to this need and the bene-
fits to accrue from it, We are on the constant
receipt of letters from citizens of these coun-
ties, all expressive of an intense interest in the
matter. The articles published last week show
that the movement is gathering headway. Else
where we give the views of q correspondent, n
prominent citizen of Edgefeld.
Let us have convention of the live men of
the counties lying along the proposed route.
We would suggest some time in August, and
Abbevilc Court House as the place. Will our
Edgefield, Abbevile and Anderson brethren of
the press give us their views on the proposition.
We think such meeting would result in good.

TRANSMISSION OF BLooD.-An operation
was performed upon patient at the City Hos
pital Yesterday by Drs. Brandeis and Wilson
which is not often attempted, namely, that of
the TRANSMISSION of the blood of sheep into the
veins of human being. The subject of the
operation was a man named Wentley, who was
admitted to the hospital some time since. His
disease baffed the skill of the best medical
talent of the city, as they were totally unable
to determine the nature of it. General inani-
tion was what the resident graduates of the
hospital termed it. A gradual loss of strength
and flesh, accompanied by a feeble pulse and
difficult breathing were the symptoms of his
disease. Yesterday the doctors mentioned
deemed the operation that they had prepared
to perform the only chance to save his life.
A Young lamb was procured and bled. The
blood was then deflerinated by DIR. Wilson;
Eight ounces of the blood were then injected
into the left arm. An immediate and percep-
tible change for the better was noticed, and the
the beating of the pulse was easily observed.
Eight ounces more were then injected, and the
pulse was observed to beat quite steadily. The
patient was then replaced in his bed and fed
upon beef tea. At ten o'clock last evening,
although still very weak, he was in a much
better condition than on the morning previous
to the performing of the operation. 1t is not
expected that the patient will recover, though
there is a strong probability of such an event.
Should he regain his health and strength the
medical gentlemen who performed this opera
tion will have cause to be proud of their sue
cess.-LouisuiNe Commercial, June IA.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF WAR
REcoRDs.-The Washington correspondent of
the New York World relates the following:
The country will not be very much surprised,
when it recalls the mysterious and unfathoma.
BILE theft of the famous Buell. court-martal
records, to learn now that most all of the i'm
portant and secret archives of the late war
which covered courts-martial, the rascality OF
contractors, the many arbitrary arrests, &C.,
have also disappeared from the War Depart,
ment, and can nowhere be found. When and
where or by whom taken no one seems to know.
Under the administration of Secretary Stanton,
the documents in each case were brieted and
filed away and have not been referred to for
years until recently, when many of them could
not be placed. They have, probably, followed
in the path of the papers in the Buell. court
martial which a searching Congressional in
vestigation could not trace. Their Importance
to a true history of the war cannot be over
estimated. Among the missing records, for
instance, is one covering the finding of SEN
tence of death on major-general by court
martial its approval by Stanton and its disap-
proval by Lincoln. The officer in question IS
still living. Some practised hand must have
committed the theft, as only the most impor-
tant papers are missing

AN IMPORTANT DECIsIoN.-The opinion OF
the Supreme Court in the case of State Auditor
Gary respondent, vs. N. G. Parker and others,
was filed on the ninth instant. In this case
the petition prayed for an injunction to restrain
the State and county treasurers from Issuing
and putting in circulation the so-called Blue
Ridge revenue bond scrip, to enjoin them from
receiving the same for past due taxes, and for
taxes to be hereafter collected The case, OF
course involved the point made and decided in
the case of Shiver and others vs.. Comptroller
General Hoge last winter, as the prohibitory
effect of the constitution of the United States
ON the scrip, and the Supreme Court, of course,
sdheres to its opinion in that case by which
the scrip was declared to be in the nature of
bills of credit, and the emission, therefore, is
declared unconstitutional In the opinion of
the Court occurs the following significant Ian
guage:
care Of the property or money of the State, as
to its proper preservation and disposition occu-
pics, in regard to it, the relation of trustee.
He must hold it alone in strict devotion to the
purposes of the agency which his Office confers.
The State as 'cestui qui trust may enforce the
trust and save the subject of it from conversion
to an object not within its scope. A private
citizen and taxpayer has such an equity as
will authorize him, in behalf of himself and all
others who will be prejudiced by the proposed
wrongful act Of the officer, in respect either to
the money OF the property, to resort to judi
cial proceedings for its prevention"
The motion to dissolve the injunction was
dismissed.
