attendant upon tine panic caused such q
stress upon his mind that it was deemed neces-
sary to send him to Bloomingdale Asylum, where

It is an unquestionable fact that no popula~

cluded from commerce and manufactures, can
keep the streets and avenues Of that city IN re-
pair, much less grade and improve them, with
out considerable aid from the General Govern
ment 1t being national city and not local
ono, it should be governed directly by the Gen
eral Government, and it's affairs placed, like
those of the Indians, the coast survey, or the
public lands, in the management OF Commits
sioper under the Interior Department, and this
Commissioner should be made responsible to
Congress as the exclusive Legislative authority,
and to tho Executive Department generally. 4
local government in the City Of Washington is
aud must be farce. No such thing Was ever
designed, aud, now that the original plan Of the
city is really accomplished Congress should step
in and take absolute and exclusive charge of all
the affairs Of the District. and impose whatever
taxes it may be deemed equitable that the citi-
zens should pay.

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION,

The Committee Of Underwriters appointed Il
Investigate the circumstances attending the re-
cent fro in the building occupied by H. D
Wells Co., on the corner Of Madison and Mar.
kes streets, have made report They find thai
the building was first-c1ass in every respect. II
WAS furnished with 3 stand-pipe, with hoeo at
tachment upon each story; and that there was
a tank IN the fifth story with capacity Of 1,50l
ga lions Of water.
The cause of the fire they attribute to the
spontaneous combustion Of the oil and greasy
waste and other sweepiugs OF the factory.
These arc taken up every night, put
in a boz, and sent down to the boiler
room once 3 week. On the Saturday
night before the fire this box was
not sent down as usual but left on
the fourth floor, near tho windows ON the
west side Of the building. The box contained all
the materials for spontaneous combustion. Heat
was generated slowly. SO TINT at noon on Sum
day the foreman who visited the factory did not
discover any fire. Ii time the heat burned through
the boz, thence through the floor, and thus
slowly along until, when discovered 1T i o'clock
Monday q. 1n., the fire burst out OF the windows
near the box. Air being thus admitted the fire
spread rapidly to the fifth floor, burned the floor
under the water-tank, and FASTENED tie destruc-
tion Of the building. The Committee claim to
have verified t1is theory OF the fire by waits to
other factories there they found barrels OF
cottonseed oil. cans OF linseed oil, and others Of
turpentine; they found oily cloths full of oil
and blacking they found also that these were
swept up and kept in 4 box which is emp.icd
weakly. In two Of these other factories
they found the same construction Of
stairvnys which in tho case of the Wells
building. through ignorance at such construction,
rendered it impossible to reach tho fire. Tbs
Committee deduce from the facts that
l. In every building where there ia factory
Of any sort there should be watchmau and
watch clock. Had there been one in the Wells
building the fire could hAvs been easily extiu-
gnishod.
a. In every shoe-factorJ the rubbish should
be gathered into an iron box, raised from the
floor. and covered, and this should be- emptisd
every night.

The streets are OF four classes,-of 80, ITO,
130, and l60 feet wide. The LITTER class are the
avenues. Tie regular streets run north and
south and east and west, crossing each other at
right angles. The avenues are divergent, form
ing, at tho intersections in the streets, nu1ner-
ous triangular spaces The reservations OF
ground by the Government we're most expen-
sive. They included not only all that has ever
been needed for the public buildings and
grounds, but originally included many large
blocks, one to be held for each State, and others
for the residences Of foreign Ministers, and for
colleges and churches. In fact, it was to be
national city. Of which the Government nas
owner of more than two-th:rds of the entire
area It never was intended that this magnif-
cent city should be under the control Of any
be carried out at the exclusive cost Of the small
resident population.
The House Judiciary Committee had this cub
1ect referred to them, and 4 month ago. through
Judge Poland, Of Vermont, made report III
which these points wero maintained: l. That
Congress has absolute Legislative authority over
every 1ightful 8uject Of legislation within the
District, without any reserv&tion whatever to
any State or States, or to the people within tho
District itself. Any local Government erected
in the District can only 90 regarded as m agency
OF the Federal Government. e The Capital was
to DO city where all improvements made Rnd
expenses incurred were to be for the benefit OF
the whole people. The burden OF expenditures
WAS never intended to be placed upon those citi-
zens who might temporarily or permanently
take up residence at the Capital.
The original management of the city was By
Commissioners appointed by the President. Sub
sequently there Tas corporate Government, the
Mayor being appointed by the President. Up to
1884 the Government ha1 received e7u, ,OU0 for
city lots sold by it. AL this money was used for
the erection Of public buildings and none for tho
improvement OF strocts and ayenues. There be-
ing NO trade OF commerce save \ email retail
business, aud these being excluded and manu-
factures discouraged, the population Of tho cityiB

their salaries, which do not permit them to be-

It seems that, practically, the National Bank
rupt law ia repealed since, without the consent
Of the debtor, it will be impossible hereafter to
put any one in bankruptcy. The Inv az amended
requires that "one-fourth in number and one
third in amount Of the creditors" must join in
petition to put debtor in bankruptcy. Suppose
debtor commits any number OF acts that should
bring bis atfaira before the Bankruptcy Court
for adjudication, and his estate for distribution.
Some creditor gets eovora1 parties to unite with
him, and they swear that according to tho best OF
their information and belief" they are "one-
fourth in number" and hold ''one-third of the
amount Of tho indebtedness" OF the party. In the
meantime, tho debtor, seeing the coming storm,
goes to hia personal friends and borrows e5 OF

Interesting to Travellers.

The summer travel has not yc'
commenced. but those who intend
leaving home are anxious to gain all
information possible as to routes, &c.
We Clip the following from the S,20r-
TIN in relation to the Spartaabury and
Union route:
The new schedule on the Spartan
bury Il Union Railroad went into cf-
t.ct last Monday. Two daily trains
now run. one up and the other down,
maxim" chose connection both ways
without any delays at Aston. Pas
Seuger< from Columbia reach Spartan
burg for dinner at $50 p. Ill, in time
to take accommodation On Air Line
Road. and reach Grccnvill" an hour
or two before passengers by the Green
vile l. Columbia Road. Passengers
frvm Charlotte arrive iu ti;nc to take
the down train on the Spa:;anbnrg &
Union Road. Spartmburg is begin
ming to become the "Gaie City, Of
South Carolina. The officers and
managers of the Spartanburg 4 Union
Road are entitled to the lasting graft
tudc Of our peoplc for putting said
road in such fine condition and adapt
ING the schedule to the wants and
! wishes Of the travelling public. Lines
of hacks also run from Spa:tauburg to
Glenn Springs aud Cherokee Springs.
The Hotels at both of these water
lug places, We are informed, are in
thorough repair, and prepared to ac-
commcdate comfortably and satisfac-
torily all who may visit them. At
the former s-evcry thing
which can coDducc to comfort aud
pleasure has been done by McSsrs.

Stick, Governor!

Hon. Elliott, who appeared as coun-
sci for Governor Moses, ut the Orange

lowing statement accounting for the
Governor failure to b. present 10

the fact that he might. by i reckless
