The Grand Jury at the last term of
the Court presented Kincaid's Bridge
over Little River as being in an un-
cafe condition. Upon inquiry VIC learn
that this bridge, is barely passablc for
light vehicles, The contractor agreed
to build it for $2,25o. 1t was finish
cd last year and paid for by the pres
ent board. Since that time another
hundred dollars have been spent on
it. Gentlemen living in that section
of the County inform us that in fresh
cts it is lifted from its. foundation and
floats on the surface Of the watcr.-
Several parties have barely escaped
drowning. Several other bridges are
dangerous. That over Young's Branch
OIL the road to Ashford's Ferry has a
green pine log for one of its sills.-
As the, bed Of the stream is very
deep, falling in would be attended
with serious conse quences. This is

New York Notes

SIX PERSONS POISONED.
Z NEW YORK, May 19.-The story published in
the Herald yesterday that six persons IN the
upper part of the city were poisoned by arsenic
proves TO be a fact. The parties are domestics
in the house of NJ. X. Blatchford, the father OF
Judge Blatchford. IL is thought all will re-
cover, although one or two OF them are vet very
low. 1t has not transpired who administered
the poison or their motive. The butler was at
first charged with the poisoning, but he is also
suffering from poison.
WILLIAM ARCHIBALD o'DoHERTY
who figured somewhat conspicuously in the
recent fight for the possession of the mana ye-
ment OF the Erie railroad, died Saturday in this
city.
has given 81 900 for the relief of Cubans who
formerly lived in wealth or comfortable circum-
stances.
TWO MORE SUICIDES
are reported in Brooklyn making four since
Thursday last. Mr.. Hardwick, 65 years old
took laudnum Saturday night, while laboriny
under depression from an unknown cause and
Peter Heppert, young man, cut his throat
with razor yesterday, because he was charged
unjustly as he affrms with having robbed his
employer. Both leave families.

BALTIMoRE, May I9-The PRESBYTERIAN cen.
eral Assembly Fourth dayl met promptly az .
oc'ock. Prayer was offered by Rev. DIR. Camp
bell. The special order, the
REPORT OF THE CENTENNIAL COMMITTEE
as TO whether the Presbyterian church OF the
United States should take part in celebrating
the centennial anniversary of American indie
pcndcnce at Philadelphia, was taken up. The
report, which was made On Friday, recommend
e9 1t eNpedient and appropriate that the church
should take part in the celebration. with a
series OF resolutions preparatory thereto.
New. Mr.. Diversified moved that the report be
aid on the table. He regarded il ineNpedient
mat the church as body should take part i'm
the celebration.
Dr. Van Dyke, of Brooklyn, offered a resp
luton that while the General Assembly reioices
TO hear of the proposed plan for the celebration
of the centennial anniversary of American
independence, and hopes that all our ministers
and people, as citizens, will cooperate in car
rylng out these plans, at the same time we feel
constrained, as a court OF Jesus Christ To
decline taking part i'm the same.
Further debate ensued, when DIR. NiccOlls
moved that the matter be referred 20 the trustees
of the Presbyterian Historical Society, with a
request that they make proper arrangements 10
have our common Presbyterianism representcd
in the National Assembly.
AFTER A SPIRITED DEBATE
OF two hours, in which considerable feeling was
manifested, Rev. Drs. Niccolls, Backus, Van
Dyke, Martin and Wilson opposing the report
and It's recommendation, and Herrick johnson,
Judge Derricks0n, Drs Billingsly, Woodson,
Ebenezer, Erskine and Duffield advoc ating the
adoption OF the same, Hon. Horace Maynard, of
Tennessee, moved the previous question: which
was ordered. The propositions OF DIR. Niccols
and DIR. Van Dyke were severally
VOTED DOWN BY LARGE MAJORITY,
aud the recommendations of the committee
were adopted, one by one, with the exception of
that authorizing the board of publication TO
prepare and publish an illustrated volume 70

Life-SavinS stations on the Southern
Coast

Capt. Faunce and Capt. Merryman, of the
revenue marine service, and Mr.. 5. j. Kimban,
chief of the revenue marine bureau, the officers
appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury TO
ascertain and report at what points on the sea
and lake coasts the interests of commerce and
humanity require the establishing of life-sav-
ing stations, have just returned here from a
personal examination of the southern coasts
and have selected sites for the establishment o.
stations between Cape Henry and Cape Hat
teras, as follows; No 1, on Cape Henry, near
the hight house; No. 2, near Dan Neck Mills
No. 3, on False Cape; No. 4, near Jones Hill
No. 5, Caffey's inlet; No. 8, Kitty Hswl's beach:
No: 4, Mays Head; No. 8, Body Island; No. 9
Ch1camacomco; No. 10, kinakut.
Under the second section of the act of March
Sd, 1873, the following localities are considered
and recommended by the commission a. re-
curing stations, viz: ON Cape Hatteras, Cape
Lookout, and on Smiths Island mouth of Cap
Fear river. From this point TO Cape Canaversl
the coast is not dangerous. wrecks seldom oc-
curing, and very rarely disasters to life
property.
At Cape Canaveral, Jupiter Inlet, and Cape
Florida, lighthouses, with life-boats aud sufti-
cient apparatus, are recommended to be placed
in charge of the lighthouse keepers.
The coast of Florida, south of st. Augustine,
is sparsely settled, and il appears to be imprac-
hcabie to employ crews there on the plan
adopted for the northern and eastern coasts. Ii
is also found impracticable TO place stations for
the protection of the Florida reefs from Cape
Florida to the Tortugas. Although wrecks are
life has never been great. Here, as also upon
the coast between Cape Florida and Canavera
shoals and thence to Fernandina, stranded YES
sells usually drive so light upon the beach that
the crews can land without much danger
The lighthouses along the Great Reef should.
however, be provided with able self-rghting
and self bailing life boats. On the gulf coast
from Key West around to the Rio Grande, life
saving stations are not deemed necessary. The
soundings here are so regular and the shoal
water extends SO evenly and so gradually for

never high enough TO break up stranded YES
sells, and the crews are never in imminent dan
ger except during heavy hurricanes, when a
boat or other apparatus would be useless.
station was formerly situated in Galveston
but a. far As can be sscertained was never used
and during the war both house and appar atus
were destroyed. A life-savng station there l.
not considered necessary. An able revenue
steamer at that port might, in addition TO it,
legitimate duties. render important service in
saving life in case Of disaster to any vessel OF
Galveston bar.

ANOTHER BLOODY MYSTERY IN New YORK.
New York officer was informed on Saturday
that there was something requiring his atten-
ton In an clubhouse in the rear Of No. 40 Sulli-
van street. On going there he found the door
covered with coagulated blood, in the middle OF
which was razor. The walls of the clubhouse
were covered with bloody hngermarks, and
traces Of blood were found in the yard and in a
passage leading to the street, on the doorstep
and toward BrOome street. The officer reported
the mystery, and after two hours search, Mary
Jane Sullivan, white mistress of James Jack
Thompson street, known as Niger Alley.) was
found dead on bed with broken axe handle
near her. The body was cut and bruised In
several places. and had been washed OF. In the
room with the corpse we're Lottie Armstrong
and Kate jackson, white women. The latter
was former mistress of jackson. They were
arrested, but pretend to know nothing of the
murder or the washing of the body. jackson
had evidently fed, ~ his bank-book was miss
ing, and there were q number Of papers and q
clock and some pictures taken away. There Ii
no possibility Of connecting the blood In Sulli-
van street with the dead woman, Is the places
are over two blocks apart, and the deceased
bears no trace of being cut with sharp instru
ment, and Il Is supposed another murder has
been committed and the body concealed.
