Confession of n Murderer,

Thomas Il. Hallohan, under sentence of
death for the murder of Mrs. Lampley, in
Baltimore the I'd Of January last, addressed
letter to member of the press who had
shown him some favor, in which he says
My sentence is Just. | have broken the
laws of God and man, and am willing to
give up my life. | should like to have
Josh Nicholson's company on this plat
FORM" He then goes on to say that he met
Nicholson, who told him that Mrs. Lampley
had thee thousand dollars in the house,
and proposed the robbery, but said that the
o'd woman must be killed, as she would re-
cognize rim (Nicholson) At first he re-
used put on i,iv S1v of the murder, learn
ing that the old lady wouIu - alone in the
evening, we determined to do the oo~a.
We entered the house without knocking
and found Mrs. Lampley sitting in rock
ing chair sewing. She treated us to cake
and wine and was putting up cake for Mich
olson's children when he gave the sign |. /
choked her and he struck her in the stom-
ach She was then dead, and we carried
her into the adjoining room. | remained
with the body while Josh went up stairs and
broke open box. | went up stairs for a
minute and he handed me some silver We
then left the house, going to my stable, and
on reaching the street Nicholson gave me
all the money, which l kept until the Sth of
January and then divided it with him.
Tucker knew nothing about it, and received
none of the money. | fear this Nicholson
may escape. If so there is no just law in
the State of Maryland. He states that he
made confession in order that it might be
published, and that persons might know the
truth. He wrote the confession with his
own hand on six pages of foolscap. 1t was
written plainly, but with many errors of
spelling. Ilollohan is to be executed June
18TH Nicholson has not yet been sentenced,
his case having be,n taken to the Court of
Appeals on bill of exceptions.

DR. w. St. George Elliott, formerly of
this city, now at Yokohama, Japan, sends
to the Dental Cosmos an interesting account
of japanese habits in regard to teeth, and
of the state of dentistry in that empire. He
says that the teeth of the daughters of ia
pan are objects of envy, and it is remarka-
BILE that nation who place so much value
upon their teeth should keep up the custom
of backing them after marrige. As race
the Japanese have not good teeth, and it is
rare to find an old person with any at all.
Their tooth-brushes consist of tough wood,
pounded at one end to loosen the fibres
They resemble paint brushes, and owing to
their shape it is impossible to get one be-
hind the teeth. As might be expected there
is an accumulation of tartar which frequent
ly draws the teeth of old people. The
greatest accumulation is behind the lower
erals, and these are frequently cemented
together by n dense, dark-b brown deposit, a
quarter of an inch in thickness. Their pro-
cess of manufacturing false teeth is very
crude. The plates are made of wood, and
the teeth consist of tacks driven up from
the under side. A piece of wax is heated,
and pressed into the shape of the roof of the
mouth 1t is then taken ont and hardened
by putting it into cold water. Another
piece of heated wax is applied to the i'm
preston, and after being pressed into
shape, is hardened. A piece of wood is
then roughly cut into the desired form, and
the model, having been smeared with red
paint, is applied to it. Where they touch
each other a mark is left by the paint This
is cut away until they touch evenly all
over. Sharks teeth, bits ofivory, or stone,
for teeth, are set into the wood and retained
in position by being strung on Il thread
which is secured at each end by peg driv-
en- into the hole where the thread makes it,
exit from the base. Iron or copper tacks
are driven into the ridge to serve for masti-
eating purposes he unequal wear of the
wood and metal keeping up the desired
roughncss. Their full sets answer admira-
bly, for the mastication of food, but as they
do not improve the looks, they are worn
but little for ornament, The ordinary SER
vice of set of teeth is about five years, but
they frequently last much longer. All full
upper sets are retained by atmospheric
pressure. This principle is coeval with the
art In Japan, dentistry exists only as
mechanical trade, and the status of those
who practice it is not very high. 1t is, in
fact, graded with the carpenters their
word nadyilJ$an meaning tooth-caponter.

The Enchine Rapids. ---Ehc Lnte Ac-
cident---EOrtunateE Escape of EOur.
lists.
Every tourist who has visited Canada has
shot the Lachine rapids and pretended after
ward that he greatly enjoyed it. In point
of fact, unless he were totally devoid of
nerves, he was wretchedly uncomfortable
until he had safely reached smooth water.
That the trip is an exceedingly dangerous
one is susceptible of easy demonstration.
The safety of the steamer shooting the ra-
pids depends upon the skill of her pilot and
the strength of her machinery. The
slightest accident, either to the engine or
the steering apparatus, is certain to throw
the vessel upon the rocks, and such ca
tastrophc could not occur except at the en-
trance or the end of the rapids, without in
volving terrible loss of life. 1t is true
that the rapids have been hitherto safely
run, but this absence of accident has really
been little else than wonderfully protract-
ed run of luck. The tourist who watches
from the steamers deck the boiling and
whrling water knows perfectly well that the
chances of his arriving in safety at the foot
of the rapids are but little greater than those
of his sudden shipwreck. Men sufficiently
intelligent to know when they are in danger
may betray no outward fear while they are
in the grasp of the Lachine rapids, but that
they are as a rule, horribly frightened, may
safely be assumed.
Last Monday the singular immunity from
accident which the Lachne trap has hith-
crto enjoyed was brought to an end by the
wreck of the steamer lie Rendud. large
party of cxcursionists were on board, and
the vessel had just entered the rapids, when
tlp in sntn of thp nfprts nf tln NJ
lot, threw her on the rocks. She at once
broke in two, the rushing water cxtinguish-
ed the fires, and the cracked steam pipe let
loose clouds of scalding vapor. Fortunate
ly the steamer was Il short distance above
the "pitch of the rapids, and to this cir
cumstance the safety of her passengers is
ascribed. AS many as the boats would hold
were embarked and carried to small is
land, a short distance down the stream, but
the force of the current prevented the boats
from returning. Canoes, however, were
obtained from the main land, and the re-
naming passengers were rescued. lie Re
manu- was, of course a total wreck, and it is
even doubtful if any of her fragments will
remain to warn the tourist of the coming
summer of the dangers of Lachine.
From which story hasty moral may be
drawn that no one should attempt to shoot
the rapids. This, however, would be not
only hasty, but unjustifabe. To shoot the
Lachne rapids, knowing the danger, but
coveting' the excitement of the hazardous
enterprise, may not be unbecoming brave
man. but to incur sc serious II risk for the
mere pleasure of subsequent boastng, or to
lead helpless women and children into a
peril which they cannot properly estimate,
is either an act of vulger folly or selfish
cruelty.

week for the purpose of establishing n

THE so UTH .CAROLINIAM.

The circular Of Messrs. Thomas & La
motte, Proprietors and Publishers of the
sCarolinian, which announces the suspen-
sion'of that Journal is before us. We
need hardly express our regret that SO
fearless, able and staunch an exponent
of the views of South Carolinians, land so
truthful a sentinel at the front where the
enemies of Liberty and honesty invade,
is obliged to succumb to an unavoidable
fate. The "Carolinian" fought a good
fight at the centre of socalled republican
government, and had its leaders been
base enough to accept sop of bribery,
it might have effected seat OH the fence,
with other journals, that value principle
to the extent only of its paying proper
ties. There is base huzza ringing along
the lines Of its foes, that another cham
tpien is laid low, but like the cause it es-
poused, it perished from an overwhelm-
ing force of opposition, mot from any want
of that appreciation which ''holds ON to
the right though the heavens may fall"
The rule of the present dayis abnormal,
and false; Like the fitful dram of the
.debauchcd "christophcro Sly" its adhe-
rents will wake up to their true position
ere long; 8 place in the mud and scum
of obloquy, from which sprang the vilest
of renegades and adventures, who hold

Murder will out; Let thieves quarrel,
and honest men will get their dues. This
is poor crumb of comfort for South
Carolina. She was saddled with pack
of adventures, renegades and ignoram-
uses, who used force to plunder q wasted
and impoverished State. We were con-
stantly reminded Of being purblind to
the nearest blessing Of the nineteenth
century; I. E. Progressive liberty. We
tried to see our way out OF the maze of
corruption, apd vandalism, but could not
for truths sake. The seal is broke, and
the vial of infamy is, being poured out.
