The ucConauEhey Case.

IT ASSUMES A SINGULAR rHAsE-THE BROTHERS
THOMAS AND JONATHAN BEcoME INSANE AND ARE
SENT TO KIRKBRrDE's.
The AcConaughey case, at Newark, Of which
the CoxnERcrAL was the first Wilmington paper
to make any report, the most of the others
neglecting it altogether, has assumed new
phase, at will be recollected that At
the instance of William and
Thomas McConaughey, q Jury de iundtico in
qlirentio was summoned to determine upon the
sanity Of their brother David, who had been
shut mp in Kirkbride's for four years, and in the
the Now Castle county almshouse for two years,
as an insane man, and had in all respects been
treated ~ such being. TIE jury, it will also
bo remembered, decided that David was in his his
right mind and competent to transact his own bus
mess, notwithstanding the sworn judgment of
another brother (Jonathan) and his two sisters
to the contrary.
On Monday one Of the prosecuting brothers
Thomas, and the brother witness, Jonathan,
were conveyed to Kirkbride's Asylum, both be-
lieved to be insane. One OF them was violent
in his demonstrations, 80 much 30 that his
hands were tightly bound with bandages, and
word was telegraphod to Wilmington for hand
wsn ss the He'n train him arrived /" sa At
At this depot, officer Legg WAS in waiting with
the handcuffs, which he put upon Mr. McCon-
aughey, but this only served to increase the
noise which he was making. His voice rang ont
clear for several squares distant. and such ex-
clAmAtions as "Come ye, all men, and 70 to
God ~ &c., were frequent with him. His mind
seemed to run in religious channels, and reli-
gious topics were the subject Of his rambling re-
InerAue. 7- z7
The other brother, Jonathan, was in another
car, more quiet. 1t became necessary to sepa-
rate them, because, we understand, that the very
moment they came into the presence OF each
other they were continually seeking to fight.
Some eight Or ten men were conveying tho
brothers to Kirkbride's.
The case is very singular one and there are
those who believe that the insanity OF Thomas
aud Jonathan McConaughey is a Judgment
brought upon them for their treatment Of their
brother David.

Tho Regatta ON saturday.

CONTEST NARROWED DOWN TO THE uNDNE ANp
BACHELOR cREws-sUCCEss OF THE YonMER-
THE UNDTsE NOW HOLD BOTH THE BARGE AND
oIa cHAMPIoNsHIp FLAGS. r..
On Saturday afternoon last, the annual regat-
ta Of the Christiana Navy took place. The club
from Philadelphia which had been expected Was
not present, owing to . contest at home and the
Pioneer crew, Of the Christiana Navy, did not
participate owing to the sickness of one of their
crew. Tho contest WAS thus narrowed down to
the Undine and Bachelor crews, and is uniyer-
sally conceded to be- the closest and most inter-
eating race yet made.
The race was attended by the usual circum-
stance Of crowded bridges, wharves and small
boats in the river, and the crews were in full
uniform The race did not begin until about
$50, owing to the hardness OF the Bachelor
crew in coming down. The boats got or we'll
together, and up to the Undine boat house the
race was about even. Here the Bachelors by
some advantageous bend in the river, ran short
distance ahead, but were overhaul Cd and passed
before Market strset bridge was reached.
At the turning buoys the Undine
crew arrived about boats length in advance
Of the Bachelor, but the latter turned quickest
and got away flom the buoys about two boats
up side and side again, and continued in this
fashion all the way down the river, the Undine
coming In about three-quarters OF boats length
aoesd. Time, IL minutes and so seconds.
The Bachelors claim that the loss OF the race
was due to a fishing smack which twas imme-
distely In their course, and in getting around
which they fouled with the Undine crew.
The following were the crews:
Undine.-Stroke, J. II. Lewis; End, Jos. Con-
row; srd, J. Paul Brown; 4th +. W. Head; cox
swain, J. J.. Jackson.
BacheLOr.-Stroke 7. II. Lewis; 2nd, W. II.
Bowers; 3rd Edward Sparks; 4th, G. H. Mccall,
coxswain, Chas. J. Campbell.
The championship flag was not awarded hut
will be delivered by the Commodore to the Un-
dine delegation in the Naval Board at meeting
which will be called by him. This flag was not
the ono which had been won by the Bachelor crew
in former contests. by a recent resolution Of
tile Naval Board an annual championship flag
was ordered to be provided, 30 that the BAche-
!or club will still hold the old flag while the
Undine club takes the new one Of 1875, to which
1t will be entitled one year.
The Undine club IL thus the holder Of both
the barge and gig championship flags.

"Quite likely. 1t was before marriage" And
with this the landlord was forced to be satisfied.
The sale was over, aud John Mallory was wan

call his own, when his little daughter came to
say that . lady WAS in the psrlor who had asked

neighbor who wished to SEQ him on triaIng

4 stranger stood before him.
She greeted him courteoualy and then said,

He took it listlessy enough, but as he glanced
over it his countenAnce changed.

for the deed was made out in his own name.

the big landlord up there; but maybe you will
remember that" and she held out queer little
purse Of noted silk"
John Mallory fixed his startled gaze upon her
face, and something in the lustrous eyes, the
smiling mouth, touched n long-silent chord OF
memory. bhe saw it, and answering his look,
said:
"Yes, am Estelle Ielsoy, and the same Prov
idence which sent you 10 me in my despair has
sent me to you in your time Of sorrow. No
thanks, John Mallory. do no moro than re-
quite your kindness to me, and hardly that; 30

years after returning to Canada, she had mar
ried an Englishman Of rank, and had been in

"Not tonight not tonight but tomorrow

And in this she proved true prophet.

Fire Engine Test.

THE WATER WITCH RENEW THEIR EFFORT TO THROW
STREAM OF WATER OVER THE srIRE OF THE
SECOND BAPTIST CHURcH.
On Saturday afternoon last, the Water Witch
Fire Co. renewed it's effort to put stream Of
water over the spire OF tho Second Baptist
church, Fourth and French streets. At the Of
fort the day previous water was thrown through
the windows in the stoeple, which dropping down
endangered tho organ. For this reason, the
Trustees forbade the further throwing Of tho
water on the church and eteople, and the pipe
men took their stands in the middle Of the
street. persons being stationed in various high
points to determine when the water was ~ high
as the top OF the spire.
The steamer was placed upon French street
wharf, and . line OF pipe was laid from that
place up to 4th and French, about 100 feet
The suction wss thrown over into the river, and
the design WAS to lift the water therefrom, some
10 feet below the steamer, force it through the
l70O feet OF hose and out through nozzle 3-l6
inches and over the church epre, almost 200
feet high. The attempt was bold ono, and al
though it failed in it's accomplishment the Water
Witch boys have full faith in the ability OF their
steamer to perform the work, and arc ready to
undertake it again on wager. With steam
pressure Of between 125 and 1870, and water
pressure Of over 800 pounds, water Was
thrown far above thesmsll windows, and it is said
that the gilt ball, 1876 feet high, was reached.
After this horizontal stream was thrown lsO
feet on Fourth street But for the failing steam,
those interested assert that they would have ac-
complished their feat on Saturday.

soME VERY USEFUL SUGGESTIONS.


Not only can we not SEQ the slightest use
in taking down tho stoves, If that be the way Of
hearing, but wo hold that in country houses
there should never be day in the whole year
i'll which fire cannot be built at moments no.
tice. In Summer an open fireplace is prefera-
BILE to stove for there will be but few weeks
in the whole Summer in which little fire in the
morning or evening will not be needed to venti-
late the room or to dry it, II not to remove the
chill. In malarious districts this is Of special
Importance; few sticks will prevent what much
quipipe may cure, and be vastly cheaper. 30 we
insi1eshat in the family or living room Of every
country house there should always be
a fire laid IN fire place, CRATE or stove,
ready to diffuse comfort when needed,
even il it be in July or August. But in houses
come Gomez down 'o without tide detrimsnt, and those which
remain in place should DO properly cared for,
which brings us At last to taking down the
stoves. II the stove connects by short, straight
piece of pipe directly with the chimney, there
will DO little trouble in replacing it next fall IL,
instead Of this, there are, ". is more commonly
the case, several lengths Of pipe and more or
less elbows, then too much precaution cannot be
taken. Some hold the theory that stove pipe
once taken down can never be put up As it was
before without c.fiins in Aeser. s.oyo-piPes
proper foresight ct tho taking down will help
greatly to . felicitous putting up. Wher-
ever two ends Of pipe, whether sections or
elbows, come together, they should be mark
ed, whether Intentionally separated in taking
down or not. II large pipe is tsken down in
the fewest possible places. some others will sep
arste, and all be in confusion, hence the only
safety is to number each joint, that is, when
ever the lengths Of Sections including elbows,
come together, with two numbers, IL, 90, etc.
Do this before disturbing the pipe chalk will
answer, but the marks must be renewed, il
blurred by handling, before the pipe is put away
for the season. Where anthracite coal ia burned
a simple humping Of the pipe will remove the
gathered ashes and dust pipe to BIZ
luminous coal stove will show more deposit, and
will need a more thorough cleaning, but in
those Of wood.atoves, the deposit is ofteE very
heavy, and, il the pipe is long one, OF =
highly acid and corrosive nature. II this be not
removed when the pipe is taken down now the
work of destruction will go on all summer, and
when it is to be put up in the fall it will often be
found completely honeycombed and useless.
Hence Pipe Of this kind should have every in
crustation upon its interior removed by thor
ough humping aud bunch Of twigs To arrest
the corro ion OF what deposit remains, the inter-
ior may be coated with ordinary lime wash or
whitewash. Both stove and Pipe should be
thoroughly blsckened before they are put away
for tho summer.
The object Of backing q stove il not solely to
improve its looks, but it il to cover the surface
