DEATH OF MRs. MARY 81. Bo1ToN.-
The sad intelligence hes been received
in Columbia Of the death, on the 9Th
instant, of Mrs. Mary Helen Bolton,
wife OF james H. Bolton, Esq, of
Marlboro District, and only sister of
G. 2. Pelham, Esq, of this city. This
event, one OF deep aflliction to her
surviving family, was welcome to her,
releasing the wearied frame from long
continued suffering, aud introducing
the prepared spirit to the heavenly
rest. The king of terrors had none
for her. She had looked forward with
calmness to His summons, and when
it came, she was found ready and will
ing to depart. In the assurance Of
faith, in the fullness of love, she
quietly closed her eyes, and with a
smile beamiDg on her face, passed
gently away. land the work of
righteousness shall bo peace; and the
effect of righteousness quietuess and
assurance forever" Mrs. Bolton early
nude religious profession, and forty
six years ago connected herself with
the Beauty Spot Methodist Episcopal
Church, near which she lived the
whole Of her dutiful and unobtrusive
life. In all that time. she kept her
faith as the pearl Of great price, hav-
ing been consistent and earnest in
every Christian duty. and sustained
the kiudest and most affectionate rela-
tions to her family and on extensive
circle of friends and neighbors. These
gathered in unprecedented numbers
to do honor to her remains at the
burial last Saturday evening. at Beauty
Spot, and will long cherish the pre-
cions memory of her unaffected piety
and sincere friendship. Mrs. Bolton
gave two sons to this military service
in the late civil war. the eldest of
whom, Capt. Charles p Bolton, (sinoe
dead, served with distinction and
bravery in the cavalry, and the other,
j.. Franklin. (who still survives,) in
the artillery, with Capt. Watie's COM
pany from Columbia, and lost IN arm,
gallantly fighting in the latest battle
of the war in Georgia. She leaves,
also. two daughters. both married, and
husband, her true friend and faithful
companion through life. To her bro

time. with force and pathos which
draw from him tears and this poor tri-
butte of love and gratitude. he could
not be with her to receive her last
commands, but knows full we'll what
they would have been. One tic less
binds him to earth, one link moro
draws him to Heaven.

Congressmen as Attorneys--Mr. Beck's
BELL Punch"

The bill offered by Mr., Beck, of Ken
lucky, forbidding members of Congress,
under heavy penalties, to serve as counsel
for clients having claims against the gov
eminent, is a necessary but humiliating
measure. The need of such prohibition
enforced by penalties, marks the degener
acy Of Congressional morals. The self
respect of members and their sense of per
sonal honor ought to be a sufficient guar
antee against this abuse OF their trust.
There is no good reason why members of
Congress who are lawyers should not argue
ordinary private cases before the Supreme
Court or other tribunals. Webster, Pinck-
ney. Clay and other eminent men always
did this without reproach, but they would
have shrunk with recoiling delicacy and
sense OF insult from the offer OF retainer
to argue against the government a case
rela. ing to any matter ON which they
might be called TO act as legislators.
They would as soon have accepted fee to
go into court and argue money out of the
pockets Of their own fathers.
But although Mr.. Beck S proposed bell
punch Tor Congressman is badge of de-
graduation when bears witness TO a painful
decline OF legislative honor we trust he will
succeed In getting it adopted, and that
those whom II IL meant to restrain NAV
not succeed in circumyenting il as some Of
the car conductors supplied themselves
with false bell punches, which gave the
sound, but enabled them to detraud their
employers. We prefer not to go into the
recital of well known instances in which
prominent Senators aud members OF the
House have taken large fees for this kind
OF service which it is the purpose of Mr.
Beck's bill to prevent. II would give us
no pleasure and be of no advantage to the
public to put individual members 10 shame,
aud we trust it may not be necessary to do
this as means OF correcting the evil.
Let the bell punch be put impartially into
the hands Of all, and there will be no need
of Individual accusations. Each member
will be at liberty to class himself among
the honest ones who might safely be left to
be law unto themselves.-M y Herald.

ST., LOUIS, Dec, IA. The news Of hor-
rible crime reached the city this evening
from the ancient town of Cahoki, in Hi
nois, six miles southeast of East ST. Louis
and wholly isolated, without a railroad or
telegraphic communications. Chas. Fish
er, who keeps saloon in the splace, has
been for some time carrying on a criminal
intimacy with the wife of a German named
Roma, This intrigue became so apparent
as to cause great deal of talk in the
town. The gossip came to Romas ears,
and he demonstrated with his wife. She
promised reform. but still yielded to Fish
er's caresses. Yesterday, early in the day.
Roma heard enough to know that the
promise of reform had not been kept, land.
after brooding over his wrongs nearly all
day. got his gun and loaded it, and started
down to Fishers saloon to kill him. AS
he approached the saloon, he saw Fishers
girl, IL years of age, who keeps house for
her father, standing at one Of the windows.
The horrible idea of revenging himself
upon his wifes paramour by rayishing
the daughter, seems to have entered his
mind and he proceeded at once to carry
out the terrible crime. He slipped around
the saloon and into the house, without at
tracing attention, The girl knew him,
and readily admitted him to the room.
He had seized her, stifed her cries, and
had gained possession of her person
when his hand slipped, and the girl shrek
ed Her father seized shot gun
and ran ia from the saloon. Seeing what
was going on, he threw the muzzle of his
weapon within IL inches of Roma's head,
and fired The aim was perfect, and the
mans head was torn all to pieces. The
girl was drenched 10 blood, and the walls
covered with the scattered brains of the
would be ravsher. Fisher made no eff
fort to escape, but was guarded during
last night by posse of citizens, who this
morning turned him over o the constable |
and tonight he was taken to Belleville.
